A few days before the end of the term of a two-year NDA (non-disclosure agreement) he signed with a startup company related to a possible patent, Frank interviewed with another startup and divulged information covered by the agreement. The interview had been scheduled for a week later, in which case it wouldn't have been an issue, but had been moved up when another job applicant dropped out and the company had an opening for an earlier interview. Frank reasoned that he had met the spirit of the NDA, and a few days early wouldn't really matter. Besides, as it turned out, the company he interviewed with wasn't interested in that information, although they did hire him. What would have been done to make it right  by Frank?
