In Minnesota, what is the required notice period Byrider must provide for termination of the Franchise Agreement, and how many days are franchisees given to cure?

According to Byrider's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Minnesota law requires Byrider to provide franchisees with specific termination and non-renewal rights. Except in certain specified cases, Byrider must give a franchisee 90 days' notice of termination of the Franchise Agreement. During this 90-day notice period, the franchisee has 60 days to cure the issue that led to the termination notice.

This Minnesota-specific stipulation is important for prospective franchisees in that state because it provides a longer notice and cure period than may be available in other states or under the standard terms of Byrider's franchise agreement. The 90-day notice period allows the franchisee time to address the issues leading to the termination notice and potentially save their franchise. The 60-day cure period gives the franchisee a defined window to rectify the situation and demonstrate compliance.

It is important to note the phrase "except in certain specified cases," which suggests there may be circumstances where the 90-day notice and 60-day cure period do not apply. A prospective franchisee should clarify with Byrider what these 'specified cases' are to fully understand their rights and obligations under Minnesota law. This ensures they are aware of situations where termination could occur more rapidly.
