5、ementOffer with Engagement The kind of offer in which the offerors intention of making a contract is definitely indicated, and under which the offeror cannot revoke or amend when he has offered during the validity of the offer.

8、 etc.Validation, Withdrawal and Revocation of an Offer According to CISG: An offer becomes effective when it reaches the offeree. An offer, even if it is irrevocable, may be withdrawn if the withdrawal reaches the offeree before or at the same time as the offer. Until a contract is concluded an offe
9、r may be revoked if the revocation reaches the offeree before he has dispatched an acceptance. However, an offer cannot be revoked: (a) if it indicates, whether by stating a fixed time for acceptance or otherwise, that it is irrevocable; or (b) if it was reasonable for the offeree to rely on the off
10、er as being irrevocable and the offeree has acted in reliance on the offer. An offer, even if it is irrevocable, is terminated when a rejection reaches the offeror. Counter-offer An offer made by an offeree to an offeror, accepting some terms and changing other terms. Can be made verbally or in writ
11、ing Virtually a rejection of the offer and a new offer A reply to an offer which purports to be an acceptance but contains additions, limitations or other modifications is a rejection of the offer and constitutes a counter-offer. Additional or different terms relating, among other things, to the pri
12、ce, payment, quality and quantity of the goods, place and time of delivery, extent of one partys liability to the other or the settlement of disputes are considered to alter the terms of the offer materially. Acceptance The assent to the terms of an offer, required before a contract can be valid. Mu
13、st be absolute and unconditional Can only be made in the form of a statement (verbal or in writing) or any other conduct by an offeree, the particular person or a group of persons, who are clearly stipulated in a firm offer. Inactivity is no acceptance Must be made within the life of a firm offer Mu
14、st use the means authorized by the offeror to communicate the acceptance. A statement made by or other conduct of the offeree indicating assent to an offer is an acceptance. Silence or inactivity does not in itself amount to acceptance. An acceptance of an offer becomes effective at the moment the i
15、ndication of assent reaches the offeror. An acceptance is not effective if the indication of assent does not reach the offeror within the time he has fixed or, if no time is fixed, within a reasonable time, due account being taken of the circumstances of the transaction, including the rapidity of th
16、e means of communication employed by the offeror. An oral offer must be accepted immediately unless the circumstances indicate otherwise. However, if, by virtue of the offer or as a result of practices which the parties have established between themselves or of usage, the offeree may indicate assent
17、 by performing an act, such as one relating to the dispatch of the goods or payment of the price, without notice to the offeror, the acceptance is effective at the moment the act is performed, provided that the act is performed within the period of time laid down in the preceding paragraph. A reply
18、to an offer which purports to be an acceptance but contains additional or different terms which do not materially alter the terms of the offer constitutes an acceptance, unless the offeror, without undue delay, objects orally to the discrepancy or dispatches a notice to that effect.
