Restricted Period

The Contract’s name for the time each restriction lasts: 6 months for the non-compete and 12 for the others. Clause 23.5 cuts each one by any garden leave just before she leaves. After 6 months’ garden leave, the customer and team restrictions run for 6 more months. Contract 23.5 · Chapter 8 · see Garden leave

Explained in Chapter 8, Restrictive Covenants: Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation and Non-Dealing, of Employment Contracts.

How it comes up, in Chapter 8
Each Restricted Period shrinks by the garden leave she has just served. If Cressby keeps her on garden leave for 6 months, the customer and team restrictions run for 12 months less 6, which is 6 months after she leaves. The shorter non-compete is used up entirely.
