a. solicit for any person other than Buyer the business of any company which is a customer or client of the Company, or was a customer or client of the Company within two years prior to the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that such solicitation restriction shall only apply to the portion of the business of such customers that is reasonably related to the Business of the Company; or

The parties hereto agree that the scope, time and geographical restrictions contained herein are reasonable and fair and necessary to protect Buyer’s investment in the Company and the goodwill thereof.
