I know not everyone here has taken any laws classes, so let me clear this whole agreement issue up. If Jerry signed a contract saying that he would not sell them or export them for two years, that is a totally valid contract. What many of you don't understand is that in a contract, you can give up your rights that may have been outlined somewhere else. For example, I can sign a contract for Guido saying I won't talk about his taxonomy, and even though it is my right to say what I want, I have sold this right in the contract. It would not be a binding contract if Jerry had recieved nothing out of it. If there was a law prohibiting making this kind of agreement, then the contract would be void. However, to my knowledge there is not, and this is a totally valid contract.
