X was employed by Bee Ltd as its senior design consultant. X contracted with Bee Ltd that, when his employment with the company ceased, he would not act in competition with it or solicit its customers. After X left Bee Ltd, he registered a company called Cee Ltd which immediately began working in competition with Bee Ltd and soliciting its customers. Bee Ltd complained to X about this conduct, but X stated that, as the work was being undertaken by Cee Ltd, a separate legal entity, X had not acted in breach of the agreement with Bee Ltd.
