Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

My husband signed a job offer where he was given a salary per year to take the position. He agreed that if he left the employment of his own choice in an eighteen month period that he would have to pay back 9500 dollars in relocation money prorated by the number of months left till the eighteenth month. Two months in the employer is cutting is salary by ten percent (they claim economic reasons) he took the position and agreed to the pay back based on the initial salary agreement. Now that his salary has been cut he feels he shouldnt have to pay back an relocation money if he chooses to leave prior to the eighteen month point. Nothing addressed in regards to a pay cut in the agreement. Any legal standing for this?

Probably not. Perhaps you would get a reduction in the payback clause to the same percentage that the pay was cut.
