We’re going over more details from the Stormy Daniels agreement, including damages for any breach of the contract.
The deal lists a $1m penalty per breach.
Steinglass asks if it was unusual to have such a high damages amount compared to Daniels’ nondisclosure payment - $130,000.
Yes, Keith Davidson responds.
“I believe that this paragraph, the way it was drafted, was unenforceable,” he says, adding that it would have been impossible to get that amount from Daniels.
Cohen was the one who requested such a high damages amount, Davidson says.
