WHEREAS, Cyclone desires the benefit of the experience, supervision and services of Xxxxxxx, and desires to employ its staff to manage Cyclone upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, and Xxxxxxx is willing and able to accept such employment on such terms and conditions.
NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable considerable received by both parties, the parties hereby agree as follows:

2.
|
The payment for the Base Services shall be set monthly or at some other regular intervals based upon Cyclone’s requirements for the stated services, materials, vendor work, utilities, rent and other items.

The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue for a period of one year, with automatic one-year renewal periods, unless sooner terminated by either party on 30 days written notice; provided, Xxxxxxx cannot evict Cyclone from the Facility without providing 180 days notice.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida. This Agreement is not transferable by either party without the written consent of the other party. If any section or any portion of any section of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason whatsoever that unenforceability or invalidity shall not affect the enforceability or validity of the remaining portions of this Agreement and such unenforceable or invalid section or portion thereof shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement.
