6-4. Wrongful Interference. East Bay Limited Partnership purchased a shopping center for the purpose of renovating the center and reselling it to a third party. The pur- chase was nanced through a loan from American General Life & Accident Insurance Co. The parties agreed in writing that during the rst six months of the loan, the prop- erty could be sold to a buyer approved by the lender and the loan assumed without pay- ment of any fee, but after six months a 1 percent fee would be required. Prepayment of the loan was precluded during the rst six years. The written agreement specically provided that American had the right to approve a proposed buyer based on the buyer's \"net worth, credit worthiness and management expertise.\" About one and a half years into the loan, East Bay requested American's approval to sell the shopping center to the James W. Hall Corp. In a letter to East Bay, American stated that it would not allow Hall to assume the loan because of the \"lack of experience of the company buying the property.\" East Bay wished to pay off the loan in full so that it could then sell the shop- ping center without American's approval. American told East Bay that the latter could pay the loan in full only if a prepayment fee of 24.25 percent was paid. In the end there was no sale and no prepayment. East Bay went into default, and American obtained ownership rights in the shopping center, which had been given as security for the loan. East Bay sued American for, among other things, intentional interference with a busi- ness relationship and breach of its duty to act in good faith and deal fairly with East Bay. Will the court hold for East Bay on either of these counts? Discuss. [East Bay Limited Partnership 0. American General Life & Accident Insurance 00., 744 F.Supp. 1118 (M.D.Fla. 1990)]
