It is to do with whether the sub-contractor has provided any
consideration for the promise that the contractor will pay him extra
on the completion of the work. The 'common sense' approach is that the
contractor obtains a benefit ('obviates a disbenefit') from him
completing the work for the alternative would be that he would have to
find someone else to do the work.
Although it was already within the sub-contractors duties, he was
incapable of performing them without the additional payments... so the
consideration is the fact that the sub-contractor agreed to complete
the work in return for the extra money!
