What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Kidokinetics's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Minnesota franchisees are generally entitled to a 60-day cure period if Kidokinetics seeks to terminate the franchise agreement.
Specifically, Kidokinetics will adhere to Minnesota Statute Section 80C.14, Subds. 3, 4, and 5, which mandates that franchisees receive 90 days' notice of termination. Within this 90-day period, the franchisee has 60 days to address and resolve the issues that led to the termination notice, effectively 'curing' the breach.
This protection does not apply in certain unspecified cases. Additionally, Minnesota Statute also requires Kidokinetics to provide 180 days' notice for non-renewal of the Franchise Agreement, and that consent to the transfer of the Franchise will not be unreasonably withheld.
