A unilateral contract may arise when one party promises to pay the other a sum of money if the other party will do, or forbear from doing, some act, which the latter does not bind himself to do ... Assuming, however, that the promise can clearly be classified as an offer of a unilateral contract, a number of rules may be stated with regard to the acceptance of such an offer.
