• A) Todd will be required to pay the interest amounts because the agreement involving performing services in lieu of paying interest was not in writing.
• B) Todd will be required to pay the interest amounts because the parol evidence rule bars evidence of any oral agreement outside the written agreement.

• D) Assuming the court credits Todd's account of events, Todd will not be required to pay the interest amounts because the oral agreement will be considered an extension and part of the original written agreement.
• E) Assuming the court credits Todd's account of events, based on the parol evidence rule, Todd will be required to pay only 1/2 of the interest amounts.
