What if the Sales Rep Agreement Allows Termination “At Will”?
The Minnesota Termination of Sales Representatives Act overrides any contrary provision of the sales rep agreement. Therefore, even if the agreement itself states that the principal can terminate the sales rep for any reason (“at will”), or authorizes termination on less than 90 days notice, or does not grant a “cure period” to the sales rep, the principal may be violating Minnesota law by enforcing these contractual provisions.
