2 Question I To answer this question, it is essential to examine the rights and responsibilities of the parties involved (Cen & Zhang, 2023). Paul, as the sole incorporator of Hemp Co., has specific duties and obligations. He is responsible for ensuring that contracts are correctly executed and that they are in the company's best interests. Paul must also act in good faith when entering into contracts and abide by the relevant jurisdiction's laws. It is also essential to consider the rights of the local farmer. Though the board of Hemp Co. did not ratify the contract, the farmer still has the right to enforce the contract (Wang & Li, 2022). The farmer may be able to claim damages for any losses suffered due to the breach of contract. In this instance, it appears that Paul has acted negligently by entering into a contract with the farmer at an inflated price. The board of Hemp Co. has not ratified the contract, and the farmer is entitled to receive damages for any losses suffered due to the breach of contract. Generally, the law holds that a corporation is liable for contracts entered by its agents, even if the board does not ratify them (Jia, & Xu, 2021). Therefore, it appears that Paul and Hemp Co. are liable to the farmer. Paul is liable for his negligent action in entering into the contract, and Hemp Co. is liable for any losses suffered by the farmer due to the breach of contract. Under the law, the farmer may be able to recover damages for losses suffered as a result of the breach of contract. The number of damages that the farmer can recover will depend on the circumstances of the case, such as the terms of the contract, the damages suffered, and any other relevant factors. The farmer may also be able to recover attorney's fees and other costs associated with enforcing the contract. Question II
3 Raising capital for a business is an essential component of business success, and the Internet is a great way to reach a wide range of potential investors ( Kumar & Dutta, 2020). However, ensuring that raising capital complies with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations is crucial. This article will provide an overview of how Tina can raise capital through the Internet while remaining within the boundaries of SEC regulations (Zhao & Wang, 2020). The first step that Tina should take to raise capital through the Internet is to determine which SEC exemption applies to her situation. Generally, the SEC provides exemptions for certain types of transactions that do not require registration with the SEC. Tina should research the available exemptions and determine which apply to her situation. Depending on the type of exemption she chooses, she may need to provide certain information to the SEC to be eligible for the exemption. Once she has determined which exemption is applicable, Tina should consider how to raise the capital through the Internet. Several options are available, depending on the type of exemption she has chosen (Lee & Kim, 2018). For example, she could use crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter to connect with potential investors and inform them about her business and investment opportunity. She could also use an online investment platform such as Angel List, which connects businesses with accredited investors. Another option is to use a private placement memorandum (PPM). This is a document that is used to explain the terms of an investment opportunity to potential investors (Lee & Kim, 2019). It is important to note that to use a PPM; Tina must meet the requirements of Regulation D, a set of SEC rules governing private placement offerings. Additionally, the PPM must be approved by the SEC before it can be distributed to potential investors. Finally, Tina should consider whether she needs to register the offering with the SEC. If the offering is exempt from
