The president of Nickle told Fairbanks the job was his if he would agree to cleverly defame Nickle's leading competitor, Mogul Corporation, using sly innuendo and clever distortion of the facts.

The contract is not binding on either party because Alpha's performance is conditional. D. If the parcel is rezoned by July 31, 20X2, and Alpha refuses to purchase it, Delta would be able to successfully sue Alpha for specific performance. 9\" Steele, Inc. wanted to purchase Kalp's distribution business.
