Case:
Mr.X employed by the ABC company. The company promised him that if he would agree to be made redundant,they would pay him 'an ex gratia payment equivalent to the company's contribution to his pension fund'. The company then changed its mind and refused to pay Mr.X the 'ex gratia payment', arguing that these words meant the company could pay if it so chose, not as an obligation under the terms of the contract.
Can Mr.X sue the company for what it promised?? Explain
