Plаintiff sued Defendаnt fоr breаch оf cоntract. Plaintiff alleged it was widely reputed to be engaged in the business of developing, exploiting and commercializing inventions for the mutual benefit of inventors and Defendant. It was then alleged that for some time prior to May 15, 2024, Plaintiff had been negotiating with Defendant for a contract under the terms of which Plaintiff undertake to do certain things by way of developing, exploiting and commercializing a new rotary pump invented by Defendant. The contract, denominated as an Exclusive License Agreement, was entered into by the parties on May 15, 2024. The contract provided that Plaintiff was granted the right to file applications for patents on said invention and that Defendant would pay Plaintiff a royalty based upon the total net sales to be computed upon the following basis: (1) up to and including net sales in the amount of $500,000, a royalty of six percent of the net billing thereof; (2) upon net sales in excess of $500,000, a royalty of five percent of the net billing thereof. It was further provided that in the event of default of either party in the faithful performance of the terms and conditions of the contract, it could be terminated at will on thirty (30) days’ notice. At trial, Defendant asserted that the alleged contract lacked consideration, because it had no mutuality of obligation and was void and unenforceable. Defendant claimed that the promise by Plaintiff was illusory because Plaintiff actually assumed no duties to market and sell Defendant’s product and nothing in the contract obligated Plaintiff to do anything. Plaintiff claimed the contract was supported by consideration and enforceable. Please discuss Defendant’s argument in light of the facts and applicable law and provide your opinion as to how the matter would be decided by the trial judge.
