A supplier shall terminate a dealership agreement for      equipment other than outdoor power equipment by cancellation,      nonrenewal, or a substantial change in competitive circumstances only      upon good cause and upon at least ninety days' prior written notice      delivered to the dealer by certified mail or restricted certified      mail.  A supplier shall terminate a dealership agreement for outdoor      power equipment by cancellation or nonrenewal only upon good cause      and upon at least ninety days' prior written notice delivered to the      dealer by restricted certified mail or hand delivered by a      representative of the supplier to the dealer or a designated      representative of the dealer.         b.  A written termination notice must specify each deficiency      constituting good cause for the action.  The notice must also state      that the dealer has sixty days to cure a specified deficiency.  If      the deficiency is cured within sixty days from the date that the      notice is delivered, the notice is void.  However, if the deficiency      is based on a dealer's inadequate representation of a manufacturer's      product relating to sales, as provided in section 322F.1, the notice      must state that the dealer has eighteen months to cure the      deficiency.  If the deficiency based on inadequate representation of      a manufacturer's product relating to sales is cured within eighteen      months from the date that notice is delivered, the notice is void.         2.  The supplier shall have the right to terminate immediately      without notice in the event the action is for good cause as defined      in section 322F.1, subsection 7, paragraphs "b" through "m".
