Contract Exam Draft
1. Agreement: The presence of a valid contract hinges on an agreement between both parties. In this case, Thomson engaged
SkyeScape for Project Delta, which entails creating an online payment and booking system for deliveries. This agreement
encompasses mutual consent, involving the offer made by Thomson and SkyeScape's acceptance through the commencement of
the development work. The final payment of £53,000 upon completion further solidifies the agreement's conclusion.

3. Consideration: The inquiry into consideration will be delved into with more detail in subsequent steps.
I cant tell if you actually need to do this based on the structure you sent me…. I really wouldn’t go into much detail here
unless the rules are really relevant.
Litro one line on each would be so fine just to show you know them.
Also try to merge the rules with the facts of the case rather than separating them out
Conclude analysis of this section by stating whether these exceptions apply or not.
2. Intention to Create Legal Relations (ICLR): The intention to create legal relations is a hallmark of enforceable contracts. Given
the commercial nature of the arrangement, with Thomson engaging SkyeScape for a significant software development project,
there is a strong presumption that both parties intended for the agreement to have legal consequences. The objective nature of
their dealings supports the presence of ICLR.
3. Consideration: As defined as above. This will be delved into with more detail in subsequent steps.
I cant tell if you actually need to do this based on the structure you sent me…. I really wouldn’t go into much detail here
unless the rules are really relevant.

Step 5 (I just changed the number from 6 to 5 cus you’re only talking about this variation issue in this contract) : Promises to
Accept Less - Exploring Exceptions and Promissory Estoppel
Promises to Accept Less - General Rule and Exceptions:
Moving forward with promises to accept less, the rule established in Foakes v Beer dictates that part payment of a debt is not
valid consideration. This rule reflects the general principle that fulfilling an existing obligation does not constitute good
consideration.
So yeah- the promissory estoppel one is the relevant exception here that needs to be looked at so follow this…
Again… I would apply as your going along rather than state all the facts then apply them in separate para cus its more
cohesive and less words
