adequate consideration for the right to engage in a competitive business that they are
foregoing under this Agreement; and the Promoters admit and acknowledge that they have
various other technical expertise and skill sets which, if deployed by them after they cease to
be an employee of the Company, would result in them eroding the goodwill and value of the
Company and competing against the Company.
