The individual defendant was the senior account executive *405on the Crossland account. He signed an agreement with the plaintiff, which stated: "You will not work in an external public relations or investor relations capacity for any company that is a client of Investor Access at the time of your departure or has been a client at any time during the twelve months prior to the date of your departure”.
