OPINION AND ORDER

I. INTRODUCTION

Boart Longyear Ltd., Boart Longyear Global Holdco, Inc., Longyear Holdings, Inc., Resources Services Holdco, Inc., and Prosonic Corporation (collectively, “Boart Longyear”) bring this action against fellow signatories (Alliance Industries, Inc. and Rudolph John Lehman) to a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”), as well as some of the signatories’ affiliates (Terra Sonic International, LLC, Hi-Vac Corporation, Promanco, Inc., and Mole Master Services Corp.) (collectively, “the Affiliates”). The defendants now move to dismiss the plaintiffs’ claims for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and indemnification. For the reasons stated below, the defendants’ motion is granted in part and denied in part.

II. BACKGROUND1

Boart Longyear is a leading provider of mineral exploitation services and drilling to the global market.2 In 2006, both Boart Longyear and Prosonic were leaders in sonic drilling services.3 Sonic drills create high frequency vibrations and are highly desirable for use in mineral exploitation and mine development.4 In order to become the world’s leading provider of sonic drilling services, Boart Longyear sought to acquire the capital stock of Prosonic, which had developed a sonic drill that addressed certain durability and technical issues.5

A. The SPA

Boart Longyear, Lehman, and Alliance Industries, Inc. (“Alliance”) entered into the SPA, under which Longyear Holdings, Inc. purchased all issued and outstanding capital stock of Prosonic for approximately *410seventy-two million dollars.6 Lehman was the sole shareholder of Alliance, which owned all of the issued and outstanding capital shares of Prosonic.7 In acquiring all of the capital stock of Prosonic, Boart Longyear acquired all of the corporation’s intellectual property, including its proprietary sonic drill head, a drill rig, and tooling technology.8

The SPA provides that the agreement is to be construed in accordance with New York law.9 The parties agreed that any breach of the SPA would result in “irreparable damage” and that the injured party would be entitled to injunctive relief.10 The SPA also includes an indemnification clause, which provides for the indemnification of an injured party for any breach.11 Boart Longyear further alleges that it has sustained injuries in the form of damaged customer relationships, business expectations, reputation, and goodwill, as well as lost profits and market share and the replacement cost of employees impermissibly solicited by Lehman or the Affiliates.12

1. The Non-Compete Clause

The SPA contains a Non-Compete clause that excluded defendants from engaging in any business that competed with any portion of the worldwide sonic drill business for a five-year Non-Compete Period:13

During the period from the Closing Date through the five-year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), neither Seller nor its sole stockholder, Lehman, nor any of their respective Affiliates, will engage, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of equity securities, the provision of services ... in any business that competes with any portion [of] the Business anywhere in the world .... 14

The Non-Compete Period expired on December 6, 2011.15 The “Business” is defined as “providing Sonic drilling services for environmental site characterization and remediation, mineral, sand and gravel exploration, geoconstruction applications, and water exploration and water supply services.”16

2. The Non-Solicitation Clause

The SPA also contains a Non-Solicitation clause that prohibited defendants from hiring any Boart Longyear employees during the Non-Compete Period:17

Each of Seller, its sole stockholder, Lehman ... and Buyer agrees that, during the Non-Compete Period ... none of the Seller Party, Buyer, nor any of their respective Affiliates will, to the extent applicable, directly or indirectly, hire any director, officer, or employee of the other party or any entity that is a direct or indirect subsidiary of the other party as of the Agreement date.18

*411A. Alleged Breaches

1. Development of a Lehman Rig

Following the execution of the SPA, Boart Longyear sought to keep secret the sonic drilling technology it had acquired through the SPA and subsequently developed.19 It did not sell sonic drills, but only used the drills in the service of its customers.20 Following the execution of the SPA, Boart Longyear added improvements to the sonic drill: a rod hoop designed to prevent unused drill rods from tipping over, a larger grease piston accumulator, and specialized parker motors to drive the oscillator in the sonic drill head.21

In September 2010, information circulated among Boart Longyear employees that Lehman was building a sonic drill rig.22 On or before that time, both Boart Longyear and the Affiliates operated in a leased facility in Marietta, Ohio.23 Boart Longyear employees in the Marietta facility noticed a sonic drill (the “Lehman rig”) that appeared to be “virtually identical” to the sonic drilling rigs developed and manufactured by Boart Longyear, employing the technology acquired through the SPA24 This Lehman rig also included the developments added by Boart Longyear after the SPA’s execution.25

In August 2011, a Boart Longyear employee observed the completed Lehman rig in the Marietta facility.26 In October 2011, Boart Longyear employees noticed a website for Terra Sonic International (“Terra Sonic”) that advertised the sale of sonic drilling products including the Lehman rig seen at the Marietta facility27 In addition to operating its website, Terra Sonic maintained a booth at the National Drillers Association Trade Show, where it displayed a sonic drill rig.28 Lehman is a founder, director, and managing member of Terra Sonic.29 Lehman was and is the President and owner of Promanco, Inc. (Promanco), the Chairman of Hi-Vac Corporation (Hi-Vac), and the President of Mole Master Services Corp. (Mole Master).30 Lehman, possibly in conjunction with the Affiliates, designed and engineered products identical to Boart Longyear’s during the Non-Compete Period.31

Alliance and Lehman did not provide Boart Longyear with backup copies of the programs used to create Prosonic’s tooling following the execution of the SPA and retained these documents to use in designing the Lehman rig32 Further, Lehman and the Affiliates acquired unique specifications and other proprietary information (including Boart Longyear’s market research data, technical blueprints, manufacturing techniques, equipment organization, technician instruction, training materials, strategic design, and manufacturing protocols).33

*4122. Solicitation of Boart Longyear Employees

Following the execution of the SPA, three former Prosonic employees (James Savinkoff, John Walsh, and Scott Alexander) (“the former employees”) began working for Boart Longyear.34 These valuable employees had considerable experience with sonic drilling.35 Between December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2009, the former employees terminated their employment with Boart Longyear.36 “[T]hey had been solicited” to work for one or more of the defendants.37 They assisted Lehman or the Affiliates in building the Lehman rig.38

III. LEGAL STANDARD

A. Motion to Dismiss

On a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the court must assume “all well-pleaded, nonconclusory factual allegations in the complaint to be true”39 and “draw all reasonable inferences in the plaintiffs favor.”40 On the other hand, “threadbare recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory statements, do not suffice.”41 To survive a motion to dismiss, therefore, the allegations in the complaint must meet a standard of “plausibility.”42 A claim is facially plausible “when the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged.”43 Plausibility “is not akin to a probability requirement,” rather, plausibility requires “more than a sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully.”44

The plaintiff in support of her claim may allege “upon information and belief’ facts that are “peculiarly within the possession and control of the defendant.”45 Conversely, the plaintiff should not allege upon information and belief matters that are presumptively within her personal knowledge, unless she rebuts the presumption.46 Such matters include “ ‘matters of public record or matters generally known in the community ... inasmuch as everyone is held to be conversant with them.’”47

B. Leave to Replead

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a)(2) provides that, other than amendments as a matter of course, “a party may amend [its pleading] only by leave of court or by *413written consent of the adverse party.”48 Although “[t]he Court should freely give leave when justice so requires,”49 it is “within the sound discretion of the district court to grant or deny leave to amend.”50 When a motion to dismiss is granted, “[i]t is the usual practice ... to allow leave to replead.”51 Where plaintiff inadequately pleads a claim and cannot offer additional substantive information to cure the deficient pleading, granting leave to replead is futile.52

IV. APPLICABLE LAW

A. Breach of Contract

To make out a breach of contract claim under New York law, a plaintiff must show “ ‘(1) the existence of an agreement, (2) adequate performance of the contract by the plaintiff, (3) breach of contract by the defendant, and (4) damages.’”53 A plaintiff alleging a breach of contract claim is required only to provide a defendant with a “short, plain notice” of the claims against it pursuant to Rule 8.54 However, a breach of contract claim “that fails to allege facts sufficient to show that an enforceable contract existed between the parties is subject to dismissal.”55

B. Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing

The covenant of good faith and fair dealing “embraces a pledge that neither party shall do anything which will have the effect of destroying or injuring the right of the other party to receive the fruits of the contract.”56 The covenant is implied in every contract governed under New York law.57 Accordingly, a “breach of the implied duty of good faith is considered a breach of the underlying contract.”58 For this reason, “a claim for breach of the implied covenant [of good faith and fair dealing] will be dismissed as redundant where the conduct allegedly violating the implied covenant is also the predicate for breach of covenant of an express provision of the underlying contract.”59

*414C. Agency

Under common law principles, the establishment of an agency relationship requires facts sufficient to demonstrate two factors: “(1) the principal’s manifestation of intent to grant authority to the agent, and (2) agreement by the agent.”60 In addition, “the principal must maintain control over key aspects of the undertaking.”61 The control issue is not critical where a case concerns contractual liability—in that case, “if the agent had the authority to enter into the contract, the principal will be bound.”62

V. DISCUSSION

A. Claims Are Not Properly Pled Against All Defendants

1. Claims Against the Affiliates Are Dismissed

Plaintiffs argue that Lehman had the authority to bind the Affiliates63 because he is the Director of Terra Sonic, President and Owner of Promanco, Chairman of Hi-Vac, and President of Mole Master.64 While these facts speak to the control aspect of the agency calculus (which is irrelevant in a contractual liability case), they do not demonstrate either of the required elements of the Affiliates’s assent to Lehman’s authority or Lehman’s agreement.65 As a result, the plaintiff has failed to plead sufficient facts demonstrating that Lehman had authority to bind the Affiliates to the SPA, and the claims against them are dismissed.

2. The Complaint Is Sufficiently Specific with Regard to the Signatory Defendants

Boart Longyear alleges that Lehman was engaged in the design and development of a sonic drill rig during the Non-Compete Period.66 Lehman is the sole shareholder of Alliance, a signatory to the SPA.67 Further, Boart Longyear has alleged that the products produced by Lehman were sold online.68 These allegations regarding Lehman and Alliance are sufficiently specific under Rule 8.69

B. Claim I—Breach of Contract

1. Boart Longyear Has Not Stated a Claim for Breach of the Non-Solicitation Clause

Boart Longyear has properly pled the existence of the Non-Solicitation *415Clause70 and its own adequate performance.71 However, Boart Longyear has failed to sufficiently plead facts plausibly indicating that the former employees were solicited while they were still employees at Boart Longyear. The Non-Solicitation clause prevents solicitation of employees “of the other party”72—not former employees. The complaint states that the former employees terminated their employment between 2007 and 2009, and that these employees “had been” solicited by the defendants.73 As the defendants correctly argue, it does not allege that the former employees were solicited while current employees of Boart Longyear.74 As a result, Boart Longyear has failed to plead a breach of the Non-Solicitation clause by the defendants.75 Boart Longyear has pled damages in addition to the assumed damages that are triggered by the SPA in the event of a breach, including but not limited to loss of business expectations and goodwill.76 However, because Boart Longyear has not alleged a breach, these damages claims also are dismissed.77

2. Boart Longyear Has Stated a Claim for Breach of the Non-Compete Clause

Boart Longyear has properly pled the existence of the Non-Compete clause,78 and its own performance under the SPA.79 It has also pled sufficient facts to support a reasonable inference that the defendants breached the Non-Compete clause. Boart Longyear has alleged that Lehman and the Affiliates have engaged in a business that competes with “a portion”80 of the worldwide sonic drilling services business—namely, the design and sale of sonic drills.81 Defendants argue that plaintiffs must allege that the defendants were providing drilling services during the Non-Compete period.82 However, the clause is sufficiently broad to encompass “any business” that competes with “any portion” of the provision of those services.83

The development and sale of sonic drilling technology is a business that plainly competes with a portion of the sonic drilling services business.84 As a result, plain*416tiffs have sufficiently alleged a breach and the SPA automatically triggers “irreparable damage,”85 in addition to the separate injuries the plaintiff has alleged.86 Thus, Boart Longyear has properly pled all the elements of breach of contract under New York law.87

C. Claim II—Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing

Boart Longyear argues that its breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing claim is based on a different factual predicate than its breach of contract claim, because Count I is based on competition and Count II is based on “the re-building of a business.”88 This argument has little merit as the facts supporting the breach—the competition—describe the same rebuilding process.89 The claims are based on the same factual elements. Thus, this claim is dismissed as redundant.90

D. Claim III—Indemnification

To counter the indemnification claim, the defendants argue only that if the breach of contract claims fail, so too must the indemnification claim.91 However, one breach of contract claim survives.92 Boart Longyear has plausibly stated a claim for a breach of the Non-Compete clause.93 Due to the indemnification clause in the SPA, which provides for indemnification arising out of any breach of the SPA, the indemnification claim may proceed with regard to the surviving breach of contract claim.94

E. Leave to Replead Is Partially Granted

Leave to replead is granted as to the Non-Solicitation claim and the claims against the Affiliates. Leave to replead is denied with regard to the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing claim, which is redundant.95

VI. CONCLUSION

For the foregoing reasons, the claims against Terra Sonic International, LLC, Hi-Vac Corporation, Promanco, Inc., and Mole Master Services Corp. are dismissed. The remaining defendants’ motion to dismiss the breach of the Non-Solicitation clause and the breach of the implied duty of good faith and fair dealing claims is granted. The breach of the Non-Compete clause and indemnification claims survive. Any amended Complaint must be filed *417within thirty (30) days of the date of this Order. The Clerk of the Court is directed to close this motion (Docket No. 3). A conference is scheduled for June 30, at 4:30 p.m. in Courtroom 15C.

SO ORDERED:

OPINION AND ORDER

I. INTRODUCTION

Boart Longyear Ltd., Boart Longyear Global Holdco, Inc., Longyear Holdings, Inc., Resources Services Holdco, Inc., and Prosonic Corporation (collectively, “Boart Longyear”) bring this action against fellow signatories (Alliance Industries, Inc. and Rudolph John Lehman) to a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”). The defendants moved to dismiss the plaintiffs’ claims for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and indemnification. I permitted the breach of contract and indemnification claims to proceed (in part), but dismissed the breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing claim as redundant. Boart Longyear now moves under Local Rule 6.3 for reconsideration of the dismissal of the breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing claim. For the reasons set forth below, Boart Longyear’s motion is denied.

II. BACKGROUND

The background to this motion is set forth in the June Opinion.1 I briefly add that, in the SPA, Boart Longyear purchased the proprietary technology and capital stock of Prosonic Corporation, an entity owned by Alliance Industries, Inc., whose sole shareholder is Lehman.2 Boart Longyear sought to protect the proprietary technology,3 but alleges that Lehman kept backup files and used Prosonic documents purchased by Boart Longyear to develop a competing drill in violation of the SPA.4 Boart Longyear specifies that this information included, inter alia, market research data, testing results and data, technical specifications and blue prints, and manufacturing techniques.5 In Count II of the Complaint, Boart Longyear alleged that “[defendants] breached their implied obligation to Boart Longyear of good faith and fair dealing under the Agreement by using the property sold to Boart Longyear...."6

III. LEGAL STANDARD

A. Motion for Reconsideration

Motions for reconsideration are governed by Local Rule 6.3 and are committed to the sound discretion of the district court.7 A motion for reconsideration is appropriate where “ ‘the moving party can point to controlling decisions or data that the court overlooked—matters, in other words, that might reasonably be expected to alter the conclusion reached by the court.’”8 A motion for reconsideration *418may also be granted to “ ‘correct a clear error or prevent manifest injustice.’”9

The purpose of Local Rule 6.3 is to “‘ensure the finality of decisions and to prevent the practice of a losing party examining a decision and then plugging the gaps of a lost motion with additional matters.’”10 Local Rule 6.3 must be “narrowly construed and strictly applied so as to avoid repetitive arguments on issues that have been considered fully by the Court.”11 Courts have repeatedly been forced to warn litigants that such motions should not be made reflexively to reargue “ ‘those issues already considered when a party does not like the way the original motion was resolved.’”12 A motion for reconsideration is not an “opportunity for making new arguments that could have been previously advanced,”13 nor is it a substitute for appeal.14

B. Motion to Dismiss

On a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the court must assume “all well-pleaded, nonconclusory factual allegations in the complaint to be true”15 and “draw all reasonable inferences in the plaintiffs favor.”16 On the other hand, “threadbare recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory statements, do not suffice.”17 To survive a motion to dismiss, therefore, the allegations in the complaint must meet a standard of “plausibility.”18 A claim is facially plausible “when the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged.”19 Plausibility “is not akin to a probability requirement,” rather, plausibility requires “more than a sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully.”20

In support of her claim, a plaintiff may allege “upon information and belief’ facts *419that are “peculiarly within the possession and control of the defendant.”21 Conversely, a plaintiff should not allege upon information and belief matters that are presumptively within her personal knowledge, unless she rebuts the presumption.22 Such matters include “ ‘matters of public record or matters generally known in the community ... inasmuch as everyone is held to be conversant with them.’”23

C. Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing

The covenant of good faith and fair dealing “embraces a pledge that neither party shall do anything which will have the effect of destroying or injuring the right of the other party to receive the fruits of the contract.”24 The covenant is implied in every contract governed under New York law.25 Accordingly, a “breach of the implied duty of good faith is considered a breach of the underlying contract.”26 For this reason, “a claim for breach of the implied covenant [of good faith and fair dealing] will be dismissed as redundant where the conduct allegedly violating the implied covenant is also the predicate for breach of covenant of an express provision of the underlying contract.”27

IY. DISCUSSION

Boart Longyear asserts that its implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing claim (Count II) rests on a separate factual predicate than its breach of the SPA Non-Compete claim (Count I)—the retention of Boart Longyear’s property.28 In the June opinion, I found the claims duplicative29 because Boart Longyear alleged that the property retained by defendants was used to develop drills that competed with Boart Longyear’s.30 Defendants argue that allegations describing defendants’ use of the retained materials to compete with plaintiffs render the claims duplicative.31

On reconsideration, I again conclude that defendants’ continued possession and use of Boart Longyear’s property, which it acquired from defendants in the SPA and which was used to breach the Non-Compete, does not provide an independent factual basis for Count II.32 Plaintiffs’ distinc*420tion between possession and use is not compelling, where plaintiffs allege that the retained documents were used solely to compete with Boart Longyear.33

While I have previously held that a duplicative implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing claim may stand as an alternative cause of action,34 more recent Second Circuit case law indicates that dismissal for redundancy is the appropriate outcome here.35

V. CONCLUSION

For the foregoing reasons, Boart Longyear’s motion for reconsideration is denied. The Clerk of the Court is directed to close this motion (Docket No. 19). A conference is scheduled for July 30, 2012, at 4:30 p.m. in Courtroom 15C.

SO ORDERED.
