Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a covenant not to compete is found to be unreasonable in its essential terms, a court may choose to reform the covenant's terms to a reasonable level rather than upholding the unreasonable terms, enforcing the covenant after evaluating its effects over time, or refusing to enforce the covenant without additional consideration. Reforming the covenant's terms is the most likely option to prevent undue hardship on Lee, while still protecting the interests of the business.
