Questiоn 3 – 7 Pоints Dоlly rents а luxury аpаrtment from Maxwell. The written and signed lease provides for a 5 year lease term. Dolly is required to pay Maxwell rent of $9,500 per month. At the time, Dolly could afford the rent because she had a high paying job as a patent attorney. After three years of renting the apartment, Dolly lost her job. Dolly could no longer afford to pay $9,500 per month and approached Maxwell about modifying the lease. Dolly told Maxwell that she could probably afford rent in the amount of $6,000 per month because of her savings. Maxwell could not afford to lose another tenant in his building but he was also mad at Dolly trying to renegotiate her lease payment. Maxwell told Dolly that he would agree to the decreased monthly rent payments if Dolly agreed to extend his lease by another year – so that the total lease term would now be 6 years instead of five. Dolly agreed. Maxwell’s lawyer prepared a simple one-page amendment to the lease which provided that the monthly rent would decrease to $6,000 per month and that Dolly would agree to extend her lease term by one year, for a total lease term of six years. Both Maxwell and Dolly signed the amendment. Dolly began paying $6,000 per month. After three months Gill approached Maxwell and indicated that he really wants Dolly’s apartment and is willing to pay more than $9,500 a month in rent. Maxwell now wants out of the lease and lease amendment he entered into with Dolly so that he can rent to Gill at the higher rent. Maxwell sent Dolly a letter telling her that the amendment was unenforceable because it lacked consideration. Dolly does not want to leave the apartment. REQUIRED (7 Points): Is Maxwell correct that the lease amendment is unenforceable for lack of consideration? Who wins? Discuss.
