Careless Collectors Expansion City contracts with Careless Collectors to collect its garbage. Collectors agrees to collect the garbage for five years; and Expansion agrees to pay $500,000 a year to Collectors. Expansion City doubles it size in two years after the signing of the contract. At the beginning of the third year of the contract, Careless Collectors refuses to collect the garbage and demands more money. Collectors points out that it now costs it over $500,000 a year to collect the garbage, so they are losing money. When negotiating the original contract, Expansion City had supplied Careless Collectors with growth studies that indicated that Expansion would double its size in two to five years. Collectors did not take these predictions into account when setting the $500,000 a year contract price. With the garbage piling up and constituting a health hazard and with no other company to turn to other than Collectors, Expansion agrees to a new contract with Collectors for $700,000 a year. (a) The contract for $700,000 is enforceable because under UCC 2-209 any contract modification is enforceable without consideration. (b) The contract for $700,000 is unenforceable because Careless Collectors encountered difficulties in performance. (c) The contract for $700,000 is unenforceable in light of the pre- existing duty rule. (d) None of the above.

Sowle and Wright Steve The Soul Man Sowle runs Wild Vinyl, which sells vinyl records. Richard the 8 Man Wright owns and operates Eight Track, a store catering to collectors of eight-track audio tapes (Wright s motto: Ain t eight, ain t great ). Wright and Sowle agree that Wright will sell Sowle 100 Eric Clapton albums for $1000. Wright decides to make the delivery himself. He picks up the records, but, as he is crossing the Michigan Avenue Bridge, he thinks about just how angry he was when Clapton joined with Steve Winwood and changed the sound of the band s music. He remembers that Sowle liked the Winwood-inspired sound. Possessed by rage, he slams on the brakes, gets out the car, and begins to throw the albums one by one off the bridge, saying with each throw, Take that Sowle-less. When he finally gets control of himself, he has only 50 albums left. When Wright delivers only 50 albums, Sowle accepts the albums but refuses to pay Wright any money. Sowle s expectation damages are; (a) $500 (b) The value of the 50 undelivered albums.
Pomegranate Computers Pomegranate computers, located in Los Angeles, has developed a breakthrough design in computer monitors, the Hades series. They plan to display it at the Winter Computer Trade Show in Chicago (they do not intend to sell any monitors there). They hire Olympus Express, a transportation company, to deliver the monitor and related equipment to Chicago in time for the show. Olympus delivers everything but the monitor, which somehow slipped through the cracks and disappeared as if swallowed up by the earth. Without the monitor, Pomegranate's attendance at the show is pointless. Pomegranate sues Olympus for breach of contract. Assume Pomegrante would have made some sales as a result of exhibiting at the trade show. The lost sales were reasonably foreseeable at the time of contracting as a result of a failure to deliver. A. True B. False C. Maybe
