The Company Bachus Ltd. produces wines in the region of Drinkirea, famous for the quality of the grapes grown there. The grapes used by the Bachus Company can only grow in the Drinkirean climate, thanks to the region's specific environmental characteristics. Using three different sorts of grapes, Greg who is the owner of Bachus Company, created a new kind of grape which provides a similar quality but a double production on the same surface. The reproduction of this kind of grapes requires certain conditions that are not common knowledge, and Greg requested in the employment contract that all employees of Bachus should not disclose those conditions to anyone outside of the company.

Under which IP law could Bachus complain against a competitor who paid a Bachus employee in exchange for the disclosure by that employee of the special conditions required for the reproduction of the grapes.
