The first thing to do is to review the agreement to see what it says about termination and if there is anything about non-competition, which may or may not hold up in California.

As a Franchise Attorney I can say this is not the kind of question that can be answered without a review of your franchise agreement and disclosures in the related FDD Franchise Disclosure Document. If you sell your franchise, there will likely be a noncompete that may be valid in California as incidental to the sale of a business. Before you take any action, consult with a good business or franchise attorney in your area for specific advice.
