Step up to Saxion. Course Introduction to International Business Law Lecture 2

Step up to Saxion. Topics Revision lecture 1 –Questions Subjects of today: –At what moment have you reached an agreement? –Stages of preliminary negotiations. –Breaking of negotiations (breach of contract and tort). –Homework

Step up to Saxion. Reaching an agreement An agreement is concluded when one party accepts (offeree) the offer of another party (offerer) Legal offer : –an offer is described –a price is determined –the number of objects is given Invitation to enter into negotiations

Step up to Saxion. Reaching an agreement 2 Reception theory: the offer is valid when it reaches the other party Withdrawing an offer -> prevents that the offer becomes a valid offer Revoking an offer -> valid offer but offerer changes his mind and cancels

Step up to Saxion. Reaching an agreement 3 No revocation –The offer has already been accepted by the offeree –The offer is irrevocable

Step up to Saxion. Stages of preliminary negotiations Rules of good faith According to EU jurisprudence two stages in the negotiation phase: –Stage 1: parties start negotiating/exploring possibilities –Stage 2: an agreement is within reach

Step up to Saxion. Breaking of negotiations Possibility to claim damages? –Using breach of contract? –Using tort?

Step up to Saxion. Claim damages? Stage 1: Parties are free to break off negotiations, no claims Stage 2: with the agreement within reach no liberty to break off the negotiations unless the breaking off party pays for the costs (& loss of profit)

Step up to Saxion. Using breach of contract? Parties have already concluded a contract when they agree on two essential elements -> –Price –Object The party that breaks off is liable for damages of the other party

Step up to Saxion. Using Tort? In case parties didn’t agree on price and/or object -> no agreement reached. Claim damages based on tort Relevance of “good faith’ and in what way the interest of the other party was taken into consideration

Step up to Saxion. Homework Exercises 1 and 2 Chapter 2
