- Knowledge: The interfering party was aware of an existing contract or relationship
- Intent: The interfering party intended to disrupt this contract or relationship
- Wrongdoing: The disrupting action was not a legitimate, legal business strategy
- Harm: The disruption led to financial damage to the business
