Franchisees must operate the restaurant and deliver, if the franchisor authorizes the franchisee to provide delivery services, in strict conformity with the methods, standards and specifications as it prescribes in the manual or otherwise in writing. Franchisees must offer for sale and sell at the restaurant all and only those products and services as are expressly authorized by the franchisor in the manual or otherwise in writing and only in accordance with the franchisor’s specifications and standards.
