Agreement not to Compete with Sample Clauses
An "Agreement not to Compete with" clause, commonly known as a non-compete clause, restricts one party—typically an employee or business seller—from engaging in business activities that directly compete with the other party for a specified period and within a defined geographic area. This clause may prohibit the restricted party from working for competitors, starting a similar business, or soliciting clients from the protected party. Its core function is to protect the legitimate business interests of the party imposing the restriction, such as trade secrets, customer relationships, and market position, by preventing unfair competition after the relationship ends.
