For this purpose, "client or customer" includes persons or entities whose business the Company has solicited within the six months before your employment ended but who have not yet hired the Company. For the purposes of this subsection (c), the terms "customer" and "client" as applied to governmental agencies means the agency or department for which any of the products or services of the Company are sold or performed during the applicable period, any related program office, and any agency, department, or office that succeeds to the functions of any agency, department, or office to which the Company then provides or within the preceding 12 months provided goods or services (to the extent that the successor replaces part or all of the customer or client to which the Company provided goods or services).

Nonsolicitation of Clients and Customers. As a general matter, provisions regarding nonsolicitation of clients and customers are governed by the same legal regime as provisions regarding noncompetes discussed in 1. above. In this regard, the Unfair Contract Terms Act specifically refers to the right or freedom in pursuing an occupation or carrying out a juris- tic act related to trading or a professional business operation. There is no statutory distinction between prior clients of the employee and clients of the employer. However, employees who bring with them large or significant client bases will often ensure that provisions making it clear that their clients “belong” to them are included in their employment agreements. Likewise, employ- ers often seek to include similar provisions in agreements they negotiate. I.B.4. Thailand 80-7 3. Nonsolicitation of Employees As a general matter, nonsolicitation of employees is governed by the same legal regime as noncompetes discussed in 1. above. In this regard, the Unfair Contract Terms Act specifically refers to the right or freedom in pursuing an occupation or carrying out a juristic act related to trading or a professional business operation. The statute does not prescribe specific look-back periods, though it is possible that a nonsolicitation provision could be drafted in a way that would provide for the employee to be for- bidden from approaching the employees with whom he or she had contact within a certain period of time prior to the end of the employment relationship. With respect to such a clause, the same analysis would apply. The statute provides for nonsolicitation provisions to be applied equally to all employees, subject to the same analysis described above. There is no specific rule that addresses the en- forceability of provisions that would prohibit executives or di- rectors hiring employees of their former employers. Likewise the statute does not prevent the application of such provisions to lower-ranking employees, such as administrative assistants.
