Non-Solicitation Agreement

Template for restricting solicitation of customers, employees, or other business relationships after termination.

This Non-Solicitation Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into on Date (the "Effective Date").

1. Parties

Company

  • Full legal name: Company name
  • Registered address: Address
  • CVR/ID No.: CVR

Restricted Party

  • Full legal name: Company name
  • Address: Address
  • CPR/ID No.: CVR

The Company and the Restricted Party are each a "Party" and together the "Parties". The Restricted Party is a natural person employed or otherwise personally engaged by the Company. This Agreement does not restrict, and shall not be construed to restrict, any other undertaking, employer, or business entity from hiring, engaging, or soliciting employees of the Company; any such inter-employer no-poaching arrangement between businesses would be void and unenforceable under Danish law, including the Danish Act on Employment Clauses and Danish competition law.

2. Purpose

2.1 Legitimate Interests

The Restricted Party has obtained access to confidential information, customer relationships, pricing strategies, and/or employee information.

2.2 Objective

This Agreement protects the Company's legitimate business interests following termination of employment or contractual engagement.

3. Customer Non-Solicitation

3.1 Restrictions

For a period of Number Time unit following termination of employment or engagement (the "Restricted Period"), which period shall in no event exceed 12 months, being the maximum permitted under the Danish Act on Employment Clauses, the Restricted Party shall not, directly or indirectly:

  • solicit, approach, or attempt to solicit customers of the Company with whom the Company had a business connection at any time during the 12-month period immediately preceding the date on which notice of termination of the employment or engagement was given (the "Protected Customers")
  • induce Protected Customers to reduce, terminate, or alter their business relationship with the Company
  • provide competing services to Protected Customers where such services relate to the same business area handled by the Restricted Party

3.2 Customer Scope

This restriction applies only to Protected Customers as defined in Section 3.1, being customers with an actual business connection to the Company within the 12 months preceding the date notice of termination was given, and not to customers more generally described as active clients during the engagement.

3.3 Compensation for Customer Non-Solicitation

In consideration for the customer non-solicitation restriction under Section 3.1, which constitutes a customer clause (kundeklausul) under the Danish Act on Employment Clauses, the Company shall pay the Restricted Party mandatory monthly compensation equal to 24% of the Restricted Party's monthly salary at the time of termination, for each month of the Restricted Period. Where the Restricted Party is simultaneously subject to a non-compete restriction covering an overlapping period (a combined clause), the compensation payable for both restrictions together shall instead be 60% of the monthly salary at the time of termination, in place of the percentage stated in this Section 3.3. Compensation shall be paid monthly in arrears for the entire Restricted Period and is a condition of the enforceability of this Section 3.
