A term may be moved from one side of an equation to the other if the sign of the term in changed from plus to minus or vice versa after the move.

4 years. His single presidential term expres in January 2010, the next election is November, 2009. Honduran Presidents are limited by their constitution to a single term. The Honduran Constitution, like the US constitution, allows a President no role in amending or changing the constitution.

Only the National Assembly can call a referendum for a constituent assembly to change the constitution.
