Stan owned PureHands, a business that sold hand sanitizer. He knew that two local hotels had just installed a large number of hand sanitizing stations and were buying all of their hand sanitizer from his competitor, GermAway. Stan went to the Hotel Aja, and asked the Purchasing Director if she would consider buying the hotel's hand sanitizer from him. The director said that she could not do it, because she was bound by a three-year contract to buy all hand sanitizer exclusively from GermAway. Stan offered to sell the hand sanitizer for 15% less than GermAway's price if the director would buy from PureHands instead of GermAway. The Hotel Aja Purchasing Director then agreed to stop accepting and paying for shipments of hand sanitizer from GermAway. and to start buying from PureHands. Stan and the director immediately wrote and signed a contract to this effect. Stan then went to Hotel Gaucho, and asked the Purchasing Manager if he would buy the hotel's hand sanitizer from PureHands. The manager told Stan he had been looking for a more competitive price for hand sanitizer, and told Stan the price he was paying with GermAway. Stan said he could sell his hand sanitizer for 10% less, and then the manager agreed to switch to PureHands as Hotel Gaucho's supplier of hand sanitizer. Stan and the manager immediately wrote and signed a contract to this effect.
