Yes, that's sort of indentured servitude. Not-to-compete clauses even have a statute of limitation (in most places).
Usually if at any time the contract terms aren't met or are violated by one party or the other, it voids the contract, leaving the person who violated it at risk of penalty, but as people mentioned, it's rare you'll get a judge to enforce a contract like that, particularly in this business (that makes it another can of worms).
but, consulting a competent lawyer is probably better than listening to us on this board ;)
