- (b) RAW Corporation Limited has a reasonable, legitimate interest in protecting that investment.
- (c) RAW Corporation Limited has agreements with Freelancers which protect this investment by requiring that Freelancers obtain RAW Corporation Limited's prior written consent before proposing or accepting any direct or indirect engagement with clients they have worked with. Accordingly, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, Client agrees that for a period of 9 months immediately following the last date of acceptance by RAW Corporation Limited of a Brief submitted under these Terms, Client shall not without the prior written consent of RAW Corporation Limited directly or indirectly solicit any Freelancer to work for Client directly or indirectly in any engagement or business arrangement.

The Client and RAW Corporation Limited confirm that these sums represent a genuine pre-estimate of RAW Corporation Limited's loss for breach of clause 7.1.
