If the franchisee is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company, or other entity, the term “you” does not include the entity’s principals unless otherwise stated. The Franchisor, and Any Parents, Predecessors, and Affiliates We are a North Carolina limited liability company formed on January 15, 2010. We do business only under our corporate name. Our principal place of business is located at 5221 Oleander Drive, Wilmington, North Carolina 28403. Our agents for service of process are listed in Exhibit H. We do not have any predecessors. We began offering franchises of the type described in this disclosure document in March 2010. We have never offered any other franchises in any other line of business.

IP Licensor has never offered franchises of the type described in this disclosure document, nor in any other line of business. APD Company, LLC (“APD”), our affiliate, is a North Company limited liability company formed on July 26, 2011 and shares our principal place of business at 5221 Oleander Drive, Wilmington, North Carolina 28403.

Harmar sells mobility and accessibility related equipment to 101 MOBILITY franchisees. Harmar has never offered franchises of the type described in this disclosure document, nor in any other line of business. The 101 Mobility Franchised Business We grant franchises for the operation of retail businesses (“Franchised Businesses”) which sell, rent, install, and service mobility and accessibility related equipment and accessories such as stair lifts, auto lifts, vertical lifts, patient lifts, elevators, and ramps under the 101 MOBILITY trademark and other trademarks, service marks, logos and other indicia of origin (“Marks”). We offer these franchises as start-up businesses or as conversions from existing businesses to 101 MOBILITY Franchised Businesses. Franchised Business customers include individuals, where the equipment provided enables recipients to reside or maneuver more easily in their own homes, as well as businesses, namely those which use the mobility and accessibility-related equipment to become compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”). We also permit franchisees to sell equipment which they refurbish. The current business focus is to sell and rent items on a private-pay basis—that is, the recipients pay out-of-pocket or through a source
101 Mobility Franchise Systems, LLC Franchise Disclosure Document | 2025 Page 21 of 44 Initial Launch Advertising In connection with the opening of your Franchised Business, and in addition to the payment of the Initial Marketing Fee, you must spend between $4,000 and $6,000, as we designate, for initial launch advertising for the period beginning the two weeks prior to the opening of your Franchised Business through your four initial months of operation. We will provide you with an initial launch advertising plan template, which you may modify, however, we have the right to approve or disapprove your modifications, in our sole discretion. You must provide us with supporting documentation evidencing these expenditures upon request. We may require you to pay us rather than third parties to implement your initial launch advertising program on your behalf. Currently, our initial launch advertising plan requires you to fund Google ad, Bing ad, and other designated online ad campaigns we direct. With respect to these campaigns we do require that you pay us directly, though we do not begin collecting these amounts until after your Franchised Business is open. This estimate does not include the ongoing Marketing Fees that you must pay to us as described above. Local Marketing During the term of the Franchise Agreement, we may require that you spend up to 2% of Gross Sales per month on approved marketing, advertising, and promotional activities in your Territory. This amount is in addition to the Initial Marketing Fee and Initial Launch Advertising expenditure amounts. We may also require that you provide us with an advanced copy of your pending marketing campaign and budget for our review and approval, and such documentation we deem necessary to confirm the required expenditures have been made.
101 Mobility Franchise Systems, LLC Franchise Disclosure Document | 2025 Page 22 of 44 a Business Office within each Territory, currently, we generally allow franchisees to operate multiple contiguous Territories from a single Business Office location. If, however, you operate a large number of contiguous Territories, cover a large geographic area of contiguous territories, or multiple markets are included in your contiguous Territories, we may require that you establish multiple Business Offices. Also, if you purchase non-contiguous Territories, we do require that you establish a Business Office in each non- contiguous Territory in which you operate. For each proposed space you identify, you must deliver to us a copy of the proposed lease and any information about the site we may reasonably request to perform our evaluation. We typically approve or refuse to approve a proposed space within 30 days of receiving all requested information. The criteria that we use to evaluate the space include general location, storage size, physical characteristics of existing buildings, handicap accessibility, and lease terms. We have the right to require that your lease include certain provisions we may reasonably require. If we cannot agree on a site, the franchisor has the right to terminate the Franchise Agreement. Franchised Business Opening A 101 MOBILITY Franchised Business usually opens for business within 60 days after the Franchise Agreement is signed. Factors which may affect the length of time between signing of the Franchise Agreement and opening for business include the time necessary to locate a space we will accept, to obtain any financing you need, to obtain required government licenses and permits, to complete any required construction or remodeling of the business office and warehouse space, to purchase and wrap your installation vehicle, to complete our initial training program, and to complete the hiring and training of personnel. If you fail to open the Franchised Business within 90 days of signing your Franchise Agreement we can terminate the Franchise Agreement. Computer Systems and Communications Links You must purchase, install, maintain, and use the computer hardware, software, on-line services, and communication links that we specify periodically. For your initial hardware, you must purchase your own computer and printer in the operation of the business, but you may also use a computer and printer that you already own as we do not currently impose specifications for this hardware. If you do not have a standard computer and printer or you purchase additional hardware that you would like to use in the operation of your Franchised Business, we estimate that these items will cost you an additional $2,000 to $3,500. We will provide you with your remaining hardware requirement, which includes an iPad Pro, a standard iPad, and wireless printer, used in the sales process and in the field by your installation technicians, the cost for which is included in the Initial Franchise Fee. You must also maintain a landline business telephone that is listed in the telephone directories we prescribe. You must use the System’s proprietary MOBILINK software in connection with the operation of your Franchised Business, which we license to you through our Software License Agreement included in this disclosure document as Attachment B to the Franchise Agreement. For access to the MOBILINK software, you must pay to us an ongoing Software License Fee that is currently included as part of the Technology Fee. We reserve the right to increase the Software License Fee. The Software License Fee is payable for each Territory for which you have entered into a franchise agreement. The MOBILINK software provides assistance with the management of client leads and data, sales records and documentation, inventory control, marketing efforts, administrative matters, and customer service for you and your employees and serves as a comprehensive business management software for your Franchised Business. We or our affiliates will provide support for the MOBILINK software. You must also purchase and use QuickBooks Online Plus for your bookkeeping and accounting, which is compatible with our accounting systems. QuickBooks Online Plus is available by subscription directly from Intuit for approximately $100 per month.

The vendor opportunity at 101 Mobility
101 Mobility Franchise Systems operates in the health services sector, providing mobility and accessibility solutions from its North Carolina headquarters. The system comprises 194 total units—178 franchised and 16 company-owned—with an average unit volume of $758,399.50. Year-over-year unit growth is modest at 0.565%, indicating a mature network with limited new-unit expansion. For software vendors, the primary opportunity lies in penetrating the existing 178 franchised locations, where a mandated tech stack creates both a barrier and a clear target for complementary tools or eventual replacement cycles.
The operator footprint is small and geographically dispersed: six mapped operators across approximately six located units, with no multi-unit operators reported. Top states include California (3 units), Alaska (1), Alabama (1), and Arizona (1). This single-unit dominance means purchasing decisions are unlikely to be influenced by large franchisee groups, keeping power centralized at the franchisor level.
Who controls software purchasing
Control over software purchasing at 101 Mobility rests firmly with the franchisor. The 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document lists Brian Belmont as Chief Executive Officer and Kimberly K. Beeson as Controller. These two executives represent the financial and operational buying center at HQ. Kathleen Cox, Chief Marketing Officer, and Tamara Weil-Cunningham, Director of Training and Support, may also influence tools related to marketing, learning management, or customer experience, though the FDD does not specify their involvement in technology procurement.
The absence of multi-unit operators and the mandated nature of core systems reinforce a top-down purchasing model. Vendors should direct outreach to the C-suite and finance leadership in North Carolina, not to individual franchisees, when proposing software that affects operations, financial reporting, or compliance.
Mandated and current tech stack
The 2026 FDD mandates two specific technology systems. MOBILINK is the required operational software, though the FDD does not detail its full functionality or vendor name beyond the brand. For accounting, QuickBooks Online Plus by Intuit Inc. is mandated across the system. No other mandated or recommended systems—such as POS, CRM, or inventory management—are disclosed in the FDD.
This narrow mandate creates a defined environment: any software that integrates with or sits alongside MOBILINK and QuickBooks Online Plus has a clearer path to adoption. Vendors offering payroll, scheduling, customer relationship management, or business intelligence tools should position their products as enhancements to this existing stack, emphasizing API compatibility or data synchronization with Intuit’s ecosystem.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 of the 2026 FDD contains no extract regarding procurement or supplier requirements. This absence suggests that 101 Mobility does not maintain a formal designated-supplier program, leaving procurement for non-mandated software relatively open. However, any system that touches financial data or operational workflows will likely still require franchisor approval given the centralized control structure.
Renewal timing offers a secondary window for software displacement. Franchise agreements run for an initial term of 10 years. Item 17 outlines renewal conditions, including a requirement to sign the then-current franchise agreement—which may have materially different terms—and to refurbish business offices, warehouse space, and vehicles to current specifications. Franchisees must also complete updated training and provide profit and loss statements for the prior two calendar years. Notice of intent to renew must be given between three and six months in advance.
How to read the 101 Mobility FDD
The full 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document for 101 Mobility is embedded below. It contains the legal and operational disclosures that govern the franchise relationship, including Item 1 (executives), Item 11 (mandated systems), Item 8 (procurement), and Item 17 (renewal terms). Reviewing the FDD directly is essential for software vendors who need to verify contract lengths, technology mandates, and decision-maker authority before building a sales case.
