Covenant Against Post-Termination Competition Sample Clauses

Covenant Against Post-Termination Competition. 64 Executive agrees that, for a period of years65 immediately after the termination or 64 Courts ruling on the enforceability of noncompetition covenants in employment agreements have variously stated the applicable legal standard, but the focus in each articulation is the reasonableness of the restrictions imposed in response to legitimate business interests of the employer. Covenants not to compete, because they are in restraint of trade, are disfavored in Tennessee. As such, they are construed strictly in favor of the employee. However, when the restrictions are reasonable under the circumstances, such covenants are enforceable. The factors that are relevant in determining whether a covenant not to compete is reasonable include “the consideration supporting the agreements; the threatened danger to the employer in the absence of such an agreement; the economic hardship imposed on the employee by such a covenant; and whether or not such a covenant should be inimical to public interest.”
