1. Largo is a successful impresario with earnings of £1 million a year andmore. In March he contracts with Ken, a popular violinist, to appear at a
concert in June.
A month later Ken is approached by Garrick, another impresario who is
unaware of the arrangement with Largo and asked to play at a different
concert on the same night. Garrick adds that the concert is to be
recorded. Ken is attracted by this offer and at once signs an agreement to
appear at Garrick's concert. He then writes to Largo telling him that he will
not, after all, be able to appear at Largo's concert.
Largo immediately replies that it is vital that Ken does appear. He explains
that he (Largo) is about to conclude an agreement with Midbrow TV to
televise his concert and has already had to borrow £500,000 from Midas
Bank to finance the concert, the biggest he has yet planned and on which
he has staked his entire capital and reputation.
A week later Largo concludes his contract with Midbrow TV. It provides
that in the event of default by either party damages in the agreed sum of
£250,000 shall be payable. Largo sends a copy of this contract to Ken but
hears no more from him.
On the day of the concerts Ken plays for Garrick. Largo's concert is a
failure and thousands of the audience successfully demand the return of
their money. Midbrow is demanding the agreed damages. Largo is forced
to sell his business, and the only job he has been offered is as a professor
of Business Studies, which pays only £35,000 per annum.
Advise Largo.
