The non-compete is not a non-disclosure agreement. The second he gives a command to someone at Oracle he is using his knowledge of HP's competitive position to inform his decision making process. It is impossible for him to perform his role at Oracle without competing with HP.
EDIT Although, upon closer inspection they are saying it isn't a non-compete agreement and are calling it a "confidentiality pact" whatever that is.

- tptacek 16y agoThere's no such thing as a "non-compete" or an "NDA" per se; they're all just contracts with terms. It's for this reason that you need to have a lawyer you can send contracts to before signing them; you'd be surprised how often you find non-compete and IP assignment clauses in "NDA's".
