Read the following excerpt from a US court opinion:
```
the absence of any allegations that the vendor payments were, in fact, bribes — that is, that they were paid by the vendors with the intent to improperly influence or corrupt Starwood’s conduct on behalf of the Blue Tree Owners — Star-wood’s alleged breach of its fiduciary duties is insufficient to establish commercial bribery. No such allegations appear in the Blue Tree Owners’ complaint, however. Improper intent on the part of the vendors might be inferred from the Blue Tree Owners’ allegation that vendors who were unwilling or unable to make the vendor payments were precluded from competing for the Hotels’ business and, as a result, the Blue Tree Owners were unable to negotiate advantageous prices and terms with such vendors. But such b., Inc., 146 F.Supp.2d 385, 397 (S.D.N.Y.2001)  with Envtl. Tectonics, 847 F.2d at 1054, 1066
