A:
I suggest that you contact Allie Levene at levenelegal.com. She is a CT employment attorney.
As a business attorney reading what you've posted it doesn't seem like the non-solicitation clause applies directly to what you're proposing. But if you show the ENTIRE employment agreement to Allie, she probably would be able to give you a better and more helpful answer about your rights and obligations. Assuming she doesn't already represent TSC or ASML.
