This is an email from your client, Elan Fashion, Inc.:
Dear Lawyer:
We need your help on another deal. This is for a joint venture our company wants to enter into with Wendy Ellis Designs. We’ve already signed a non-disclosure agreement. Attached is a term sheet my team has put together. Wendy Ellis is a very desired designer. We want to make sure she is only dealing with us and not talking to other suitors, so we want to get this term sheet signed as soon as possible. Is there anything missing from the term sheet we prepared? Do you have any questions about the terms? In addition to answering these questions, please mark up the term sheet with whatever terms you think are advisable.
Thanks.
Sincerely,
Brad Elan, President of Elan Fashion, Inc.
