“You changed the business I sold you so you could underpay me!” ___ By deed P sold their shares in an online retail business to D.P was to receive $20M, some shares in D, and the Earn Out Amount (“EOM”): [3] According to the deed, the EOM was the Base EOM of $10M plus the Additional EOM: [6] The Additional EOM was the rounded difference between the Base EOM (I.e. $10M) and “Earnings”: [7] “Earnings” meant EBITDA over the relevant year. The deed contained a mechanism for D send a proposed Earnings calculation (as part of a P and L), for P to make a reply including setting out “Contested Matters”, for the parties to negotiate the contested matters in good faith, and for the matter to be referred to an expert if negotiations failed: [10] - [14] D sent a P and L suggesting Earnings were ~$6M (making the Additional EOM zero): [16] P sent a reply calculating Earnings at ~$15M (taking the Additional EOM to its maximum possible figure) and raising Contested Matters: [17] Following unsuccessful good faith negotiations, the matter was referred to an expert: [18] How was the expert to calculate Earnings?: [19] Cll 2.1 and 2.2 of the deed required Earnings to be calc'd disregarding revenues or expenses not part of the Co's ordinary business including: costs relating to the share sale, restructure costs, certain related party transactions, and the costs of kicking off any new business: [21] Cl 2.3 of the deed noted the parties' agreement that Earnings were to be calc'd as if the Co's business were run the same way post-purchase as it had been pre-purchase; and that D would not make big changes to the Co's business (or, if D did make big changes, the EOM would be normalised to exclude those changes' impact): [21] P sued, seeking declarations that the expert determine Earnings in accordance with all of the above.

chef, food author, restaurateur, and food manufacturer Maggie Beer AO joined Philip Clark on Nightlife to discuss Maggie Beer's Big Mission on ABC TV.

Today we chat about the stories we can tell ourselves about our food behaviour, and how food and body comments, especially about appetite, can get sticky and create harmful beliefs and stories, especially for kids. We share some examples of times we have heard things come out of our own mouths that on reflection could potentially be unhelpful for our kids. We invite you to be curious about your own food stories and to be careful with any food any body commentary. This is the Maggie Beer recipe that was Meg's favourite thing this week. Parent of a teen?

Culinary icon...fails the prime minister.

This week Nicola and Di chat with Australian food icon and restaurant royalty, Matt Moran. Matt is best known for the incredible restaurants he's created, including Chiswick, North Bondi Fish, The Opera Bar, and of course the stand out of them all, Aria - and that's only a handful from a very long list. But it's not only his restaurants that make Matt an icon, he's also worked on 12 popular TV shows including Master Chef, Paddock to Plate and The Great Australian Bake Off alongside his dear friend, Maggie Beer. Add to that 4 best-selling cookbooks and a bunch of national and international awards, Matt certainly has an awe-inspiring career in the food industry. What we also love about Matt is how much he gives back - through the charity work he does for organisations like OZHarvest, through mentoring and guiding other young chefs as well as through his own sustainable farming - that's right, Matt is a fourth generation farmer! In this conversation we hear about Matt's lifelong passion for food and cooking, which began when Matt started as an apprentice at The Belle Helene restaurant when he was just 15. By the time he was 22, he had already opened his first restaurant in Sydney, The Paddington Inn Bistro. Matt's long and successful career has been shaped by hard work, persistence and perseverance - but above all, it's his passion that's been the driving force. As Matt reminds us - if you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life.  Matt opens up about his friendship with Gordon Ramsay, and what they get up to on the yearly trips they take together to Iceland. He also shares about the strong sense of community and mateship amongst chefs and the wonderful friends he's made over the 40 years he's been in the industry.  It was so lovely to chat to Matt about his life story and the remarkable imprint he's made, and continues to make, on the Australian food industry. He's such a down-to-earth and genuine guy and we loved having him at our back fence - we hope you enjoy listening.  Follow Matt Moran on IG here Find out more about some of Matt Moran's iconic restaurants below: Aria Opera Bar Chiswick North Bondi Fish  Chophouse Sydney The Rockley Pub Buy Matt Moran's Cookbooks here Follow Nicola and Di on IG hereSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

[RECIPE IN SHOW NOTES]    Are kitchen gadgets NECESSARY? NO! Really, a good kitchen doesn't need much to make it great, which we go into in our book. Treat yourself to these things (like a good knife – which doesn't have to be expensive! – pots and pans that do the job and a nice wooden spoon) and you'll be fine.     HOWEVER: Simon's gone slightly gadget mad recently - he's got himself a stand mixer (and is knocking out perfect pavs, American Angel food cakes and wood-fired pizza like some demented cross between Maggie Beer, Martha Stewart and the late, great Antonio Carluccio).    Still looking for a recipe?? Fine - here's one that uses a gadget and is insanely easy and delicious – stand-mixer whipped Greek Yoghurt. YUM! (Spoiler, you can also make this with a stick blender).    Want more food tips? Check out the 5 Minute Food Fix Instagram.    Serves 2–4 (depending on size, appetite and what you top it with)  2 cups Greek Yoghurt   100 ml whipping cream   Honey, to taste      In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment added, add Greek yoghurt, cream and honey to taste. Crank up the speed to max and whisk for 2–3 minutes until you have a light, fluffy pillowy cloud of yoghurty deliciousness. If you don't have a stand mixer, throw the lot in a large bowl and use a stick blender or hand-held whisk instead.  To serve, spoon into ramekins and add toppings of your choice. A few chopped strawberries and a scattering of nuts (or fancy granola) are nice... or if you've been getting into the wintery cooked fruit groove then try topping with poached rhubarb or quinces. Finish with a drizzle more honey. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Antonio Cruz Vaamonde fue, hasta ayer domingo en la noche, el único participante de origen latino en MasterChef Australia 2023.

GUEST OVERVIEW: Janine Brundle is a full time Professional Homeopath, Naturopath and Nutritionist. She is the proud Founder and Owner of a private natural health clinic - the Alternative Health Clinic, in Progress Street, Mornington. She has been in practice now for 13 years both in both Canberra and Melbourne and has provided ProBono support where she can. Her training was through the esteemed School of Homeopathy in Devon, England where she gained the highest possible qualifications. Janine is a Professional Member of AHA (Australian Homeopathic Association) and a Member and Director of AROH (Australian Registrar of Homeopaths). From experience and need, Janine evolved into specialising in toxicities and deficiencies in the body, as she found that overloads of toxins of all kinds, including heavy metals and deficiencies of essential minerals and vitamins, to be, in many cases, the underlying cause of her client's chronic diseases. This testing is done in clinic, providing real time answers. Another contributing factor to her client's symptoms is often the overlooked blood type factors and how it relates specifically to how we react to life, our emotions and diet. Janine has a passion for providing positive and safe health solutions for the whole family, supporting all conditions and symptoms from Autism to Autoimmune problems, from allergies, Thyroid and Fibromyalgia, often brought about due to a high level of toxicity or deficiency. However, more recently Janine's clients have presented mostly with brain fog and fatigue along with unusual rashes and heart symptoms. Janine also is the founder and creator of two products, Instant Calm drops, and Be Oil'd – Luxury Organic Face and Body Oils. These two products were created from a need over time by her clients for powerful, honest products that worked. In particular the Instant Calm drops are a great support in recent times for anxiety and stress. She produces both products from her Clinic/Warehouse where she also gives informative talks from time to time. On a personal level, Janine has 3 adult daughters and 5 grandchildren and a lovely Partner after being married for 45 years and Widowed. She is passionate about life, taking the ‘Road less Travelled”, meeting people at social and networking events and listening to good Jazz. Her inspiration to keep going is from Maggie Beer and Ita Buttrose, and she believes there is a serious need, now more than ever for safe, natural alternatives in health.

Earlier this year, I got to spend some time with Chantale Millard - CEO of Maggie Beer Holdings, which is the parent company of the Maggie Beer brand and three other premium brands.  I was fascinated by the dynamic between her and such a household name of an entrepreneur… and the fact that her work revolves around food was an extra bonus for me!  Chantale has also led the recent acquisition of Hampers And Gifts Australia. Finding the “right” support in our businesses is a constant focus for most business owners, and quite a few also harbour ambitions to one day sell their companies - so I'm thrilled to be bringing you this conversation with Chantale. In our chat, we cover: The background to her career before joining the Maggie Beer brand What the key responsibilities of her role are  A "day in the life" at home and work for a leading CEO What the dynamic looks like between Chantale as the day-to-day lead of the business, and the entrepreneurial nature of Maggie Her “no surprises” policy (I loved this concept!)

Maggie Beer is Australia's best-loved champion of quality seasonal produce, so Matt Hayden is surprised to hear she loves offal. The legendary restaurateur, author and TV presenter loves talking about food, and has an interesting tale to tell about building her business empire. From farming pheasants to eating whiting and sea urchin fresh from the ocean, or picking fresh figs, her stories charm Haydos completely.

Maggie's career spans farming, food production, television presenting and food writing. She is an essential ingredient in any discussion about food and flavour. A passionate supporter of regional produce, MasterChef Australia regular, Co-host of The Great Australian Bake off, member of the Order of Australia and founder of the Maggie Beer Foundation, her influence in the food industry is to be commended. Join us for a chat with one truly inspiring individual.

Currently the group executive chef for the GM Hotel Group in South Australia, Chris Wotton has an impressive background that he leverages to mentor his head chef brigade in serving thousands of customers every week. Originally from Queensland, he took a road trip to cook (and surf) in the produce bowl of Margaret River, before again relocating to the Barossa Valley to work alongside Maggie Beer for many years honing his skills in seasonal recipe development for ice cream, desserts, pate & jams, as well as cooking for Prince Charles, casting to host ‘River Cottage' and shooting numerous cookbooks.

Natalie Paull once pointed a brûlée torch flame in the wrong direction – and accidentally set a whole docket rail of dessert orders on fire. She's endured brownie explosions and baking disasters, too. But people rightly associate Natalie with oven-baked triumphs – like the brilliant sweets from her popular Beatrix bakery in Melbourne. Think passionfruit cloud chiffon cakes, Tart-A-Misu, Moroccan Snickers tarts, cinnamon-glazed apple fry pies (without the fryer's remorse!) and more. Her sugar-laced cakes have a transformative power – even for people who've undergone heartbreak and tragedy. Natalie has received letters of appreciation that have made her cry. Because Natalie is a big believer in "cake for breakfast", we talk a lot about desserts – from the blockbuster "floating" cake she made for own wedding, to the four-hour spiced quinces from her Beatrix Bakes cookbook, which have the most surprising story behind them. She also recalls her days working with chef Greg Malouf (after his heart transplant), Maggie Beer, Cath Claringbold and more. We also cover some of the "all-time favourite cakes" she's ever eaten around the world, from Kanazawa to Barcelona and beyond (including the "most perfect bite of cheesecake" in Tokyo)!

Chris and Kristie are back for more #BakeoffAU and talking to everyone's favourite Scottish baker, the one and only Annette! In this episode, they discuss Matcha issues, preparing chilli for Maggie Beer, and Johnny Depp's smooth skin. A fantastic episode. 

Chris and Kristie return for more #MasterchefAU fun, and it's an episode full of national treasure Maggie Beer.  In this episode, Matt Sinclair wins immunity all by himself, there's a dramatisation of the team challenge drama, and Kristie introduces us to the world of the twitter pirates. Butter Me Toast! 

Chris and Kristie talk Mystery boxes and get a bit enthusiastic in saying "Sashi", before taking #MasterchefAU a little #BakeoffAU via the national treasure Maggie Beer, fresh from Stately Beer Manor.  A fun listen. 

Chris and Kristie talk #BakeoffAU semi final week this week. We ask if anyone really likes mince pies, marvel at a floating showstopper, and Kristie floats her own theory about Maggie Beer and a feud with the Milky Bar kid. All this, plus an overview of the plans for SEVEN podcasts in the next SEVEN days to celebrate Grand Final week! 

It's baaaaack!  The Great Australian Bake Off is back, and so are we. In this episode, Chris and Kristie introduce us to the new bakers in the shed, talk about Maggie Beer and her life in "Stately Beer Manor", and marvel at the children's cakes on show. Come join the fun! 

Julie-Anne Black is here today with Maggie Beer. In 1973, Maggie Beer and husband Colin settled in the Barossa Valley, with the intention of breeding game birds and growing grapes. The establishment of their farm led to the now legendary Pheasant Farm Restaurant. The restaurant became highly acclaimed and was, in 1991, awarded the Remy Martin Cognac - Australian Gourmet Traveller Restaurant of the Year award. With the closure of the restaurant in 1993, Maggie was free to pursue new directions, and in 1996 the Export Kitchen in Tanunda was opened. These days, her career spans farming, food production, as well as television presenting and food writing. Maggie's appearance on the hit ABC programme The Cook & The Chef cemented her place as one of Australia's most well known food personalities, and her line of products is arguably the most highly esteemed and much loved range for Australian gourmets. Her appearances on television have been numerous, with the most notable being her involvement with Channel 10‘s Masterchef, setting new ratings records for the episodes she featured in. The Lifestyle Channel have also shone the spotlight on Maggie with a Christmas Special devoted to seasonal menus and celebration. On that theme, Maggie also returned to the ABC in 2012 to share her family Christmas in the Barossa.
