Employee further acknowledges that the Company has a strong business reason to keep secret information relating to Company’s business concepts, ideas, programs, plans and processes, so as not to aid Company’s competitors. Accordingly, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the protection outlined in (b) below is necessary and reasonable. b. During the Restricted Period, Employee will not, on Employee’s own behalf or on behalf of any other person or Entity, solicit, contact, call upon, or communicate with any person or entity or any representative of any person or entity who has a business relationship with Company and with whom Employee had contact while employed, if such contact or communication would likely interfere with Company’s business relationships or result in an unfair competitive advantage over Company.

No Litigation. No suit, action, arbitration, or legal, administrative, or other proceeding or governmental investigation is pending or threatened that may adversely affect Contractor’s ability to perform the Services.
Restrictions on Business Activities There is no agreement, judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which has or reasonably could be expected to have, whether before or after consummation of the Merger, the effect of prohibiting or materially impairing any current business practice of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any contemplated acquisition of property by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the conduct by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of its business as currently conducted or as currently proposed to be conducted.
