Robin Congrats to Nick. But I’m curious if anyone who has legal experience and expertise can chime in here: is the new owner under any real legal obligation to abide by the 2 sale conditions? And what if they don’t? Is Nick really going to sue them? Can they be liable to someone else? For example, if I’m using Aesop and they decide to charge for it, can I sue them for breach of contract? While it is ‘nice’ to have those conditions, I really don’t see how they can be enforced realistically. What if the company who bought it undergoes financial strains? what if they decide to ‘pivot’? or to merge it with another product, etc. the possibilities and contingencies are as limitless as reality. But what do I know :/
