    C) The contract is illegal and void.

    Explanation:

    Non-competing contracts are only valid for employees or contractors, and they must last a reasonable amount of time. In this case, Henry apparently is not one of Larry's employees or former employee, so there is no legal way in which a non-competing contract could be enforced. Henry should take the $25,000 and use them in his new pizza business.

    This is an attempt to monopolize the pizza restaurant industry in the city which is illegal specially considering that Larry has the largest pizza business in town.
