Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

I have an S corp ( design Consulting), 2 years ago we were approached by two investors, they introduce us to few potential customers, created a shareholders agreement for the S corp describing that any new business lead brought by them will have a % finders fee, but we never executed ( did not agree with the final terms).

Recently, one of those customers we were introduced , approach me and ask for developing the project for them as an employee of his company, he is also open to hire me as consultant using my S corp.

Questions:

a) do I we have any legal obligation to pay the % fee with the two investor even if we never executed the agreement, knowing that the customer was introduce by them.

b) if I accept to be an employee by the customer, do I have to pay also the fee

Since they approached you and you never signed any agreement, i doubt they would have any claim.
