1. An oral agreement was made among multiple parties to put together some money and open a bar and restaurant. The men had to first create a joint company. However, one potential owner was not able to provide his share of the funding at the time of the company formation and was subsequently pushed out of the deal by the other owners, who formed the company without him.
