Solve the below problem:

Q: The X Corporation manufactures machine tools. The five directors of X Corporation are Black, White, Brown, Green, and Crimson.

A contract for the purchase of $10 million worth of steel from the D Company, of which Black, White, and Brown are directors, was discussed and approved by a unanimous vote. The board also discussed at length entering into negotiations for the purchase of Q Corporation, which allegedly was about to be sold for around $150 million. By a three-to-two vote, it was decided not to open such negotiations.

Three months later, Green purchased Q Corporation for $150 million. Shortly thereafter, a new board of directors for X Corporation took office. X Corporation now brings actions to rescind its contract with D Company and to compel Green to assign to X Corporation his contract for the purchase of Q Corporation. Decisions as to each action?
