Answer:

The Court would hold the contract was a restraint on trade and leave the parties where it found them

Explanation:

The contract was a restraint on trade as Fred has tried to build a monopoly by paying his competitors to avoid competition in his line of business. Barney takes the offer by Fred but Fred doesn't pay up, however the contract isn't legally binding on any party(even if breached) as the court won't rule in any party's favour
