The 29 October 1994 document was a clear, legally binding undertaking signed personally by the first and second defendants and supported by consideration (the plaintiff's agreement to defer payment); the defendants' assertions that the document was a non‑binding comfort letter or was superseded were vague, unparticularized and incredible; alleged prior repayments were not substantiated and the later document did not cancel the earlier obligation — therefore no real defence was raised and summary judgment for the plaintiff was proper.
