1. Pharma Meds Corporation employs Ogilvie under an employment
contract that sets out a specific amount of money to be paid for certain
results over a stated period of time. During the term of the contract, it
becomes clear that the results are not likely to be attained. Pharma
then gives Ogilvie the option of accepting a lesser position with fewer
duties for less money. Ogilvie accepts via e-mail, but soon files a suit
against Pharma for breach of the original contract. The court is most
likely to rule that Ogilvie’s e-mail
a. showed only an agreement to agree.
b. accepted the proposed modification of the employment contract.
c. constituted a non-binding, non-contractual communication.
d. contained an acceptance but is unenforceable because it is
electronic.
