The alleged breach of the contract consists of various acts of unfair competition, but there is no allegation that defendant agreed to refrain from unfair competition. A copy of the contract is not annexed to the complaint and no provision of the contract upon which liability is based is pleaded. There*936fore, the complaint fails to state a cause of action.
