40、t party signs the document.（二）在一份合同文本中仅仅提及参照此类条款，该条款并非合理地提醒了对方的注意，即使对方签署了该文本。Article 2.105 - Merger Clause第2:105条：合并条款(1) If a written contract contains an individually negotiated clause stating that the writing embodies all the terms of the contract (a merger clause), any prior statements, undertak

42、heir prior statements, undertakings or agreements were not to form part of the contract.

This rule may not be exc
43、luded or restricted except by an individually negotiated clause. （三）当事人事先的陈述可用以解释合同。除非采用个别商议条款的形式，此项规则不得被排除或限制。 (4) A party may by its statements or conduct be precluded from asserting a merger clause to the extent that the other party has reasonably relied on them.（四）一方当事人可因其陈述或行为而被阻却主张此种条款，只要对方当事人
44、业已合理地信赖了它们。Article 2.106 - Written Modification only第2:106条：只许书面变更(1) A clause in a written contract requiring any modification or ending by agreement to be made in writing establishes only a presumption that an agreement to modify or end the contract is not intended to be legally binding unless it
45、is in writing.（一）书面合同中如有条款规定协议变更或者终止须采取书面形式的，只是假定变更或者终止合同的协议若非采取书面形式便不具有法律拘束力。(2) A party may by its statements or conduct be precluded from asserting such a clause to the extent that the other party has reasonably relied on them.（二）如果一方当事人的陈述或者行为已被对方当事人合理地信赖了，则该方当事人不得主张适用前款规定。Article 2.107 - Promis
46、es binding without acceptance第2:107条：无须接受即具有拘束力的允诺A promise which is intended to be legally binding without acceptance is binding.一项意欲无须接受即具有拘束力的允诺是有拘束力的。Section 2 - Offer and Acceptance第二节 要约与承诺Article 2.201 - Offer第2:201条：要约(1) A proposal amounts to an offer if: (a) it is intended to result in a c

48、ervices at stated prices made by a professional supplier in a public advertisement or a catalogue, or by a display of goods, is presumed to be an offer to sell or supply at that price until the stock of goods, or the suppliers capacity to supply the service, is exhausted.（三）一项由职业性供应人以公开的广告或价目表或者以商品展示的方式作出的以特定价格供应商品或服务的建议，被推定为是按此价格出售商品或提供服务的要约，直至库存商品售罄或者供应人提供此项服务的能力告尽。Article 2.202 - Revocation of an Offer第2:202条：要约的撤销(1) An offer may be revoked if the revocation reaches the offeree before it
