Re Ringtower Holdings
(1989) 5 BCC 82, 90). To my mind, the clear unfairness here would lie in EIGL agreeing to pay a price for the 20% interest on the basis that any existing claims from the Alvarez investigation were to be carved-out of the general release and settlement, and then using the fact of that carveout as a means of retrospectively adjusting the price it had agreed to pay through an unfair prejudice petition.
