In this without prejudice letter, the background is that our client blew the whistle on fraud which he discovered, and an investigation commenced. Meanwhile he was offered a settlement agreement of 2 months’ ex gratia pay. In this letter he responds with an offer to accept 8 months’ pay and also writes about the restrictive covenants (aka post termination covenants) in his contract of employment, which are too wide. He asks to be released from several of these restrictive covenants, and to have others narrowed.
