Non-Interference and Non-Competition Clause Samples

The Non-Interference and Non-Competition clause prohibits one party from disrupting the business relationships or operations of the other party and from engaging in activities that directly compete with the other party’s business. Typically, this means that during the term of the agreement—and sometimes for a specified period afterward—the restricted party cannot solicit clients, employees, or partners of the other party, nor can they start or join a competing business in the same market. This clause is designed to protect the business interests and confidential relationships of the parties, preventing unfair competition and safeguarding proprietary information.
