9. ________. Egan, a minor, contracted with Joe's Computer Service to purchase a refurbished computer "as is" for $500.00. Joe's Computer Service operated out of a back room of his parent's warehouse in a portion of the town zoned solely for Industrial and Warehouse use.

10. _______. Brown wanted to acquire a franchise from the Dunkin' Donuts Corp. ("DDC") and establish one in Newark on Broad Street. The location he chose was properly zoned for commercial purposes in general and drive-through restaurants, including fast food and bakery products, in particular. Brown lived in California and wanted to return to the East Coast after 10 years on the West Coast. An agent of DDC informed Brown that if he relocated, acquired the property he had in mind and paid the $20,000 franchise fee, he would be given a Dunkin' Donuts franchise. In reliance on the agent's promise, Brown quit his job in California, relocated to northern New Jersey, acquired the land and submitted his formal franchise request along with the required fee to DDC. Brown received no response and after waiting two months, sued DDC. In response to the suit, DDC asserted that there was no promise supported by valid consideration and no binding contract to give him a franchise. Will Brown prevail at trial?
A. Brown will prevail because of the doctrine of promissory estoppel since he reasonably relied upon DDC's promise and substantially performed his part of the bargain in good-faith.
B. Brown will prevail because his agreement with DDC was voidable in light of DDC's intentional misrepresentations concerning material terms.
C. DDC will prevail because no express contract with valid consideration existed.
D. DDC will prevail because the agent's statement that Brown would be given a franchise exceeded the agent's corporate authority and could not bind DDC as a result.
