1301.  (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section, when a transaction bears a reasonable relation to this state and also to another state or nation, the parties may agree that the law either of this state or of the other state or nation shall govern their rights and duties.(b) In the absence of an agreement effective under subdivision (a), and except as provided in subdivision (c), this code applies to transactions bearing an appropriate relation to this state.(c) If one of the following provisions specifies the applicable law, that provision governs and a contrary agreement is effective only to the extent permitted by the law so specified:(1) Section 2402.(2) Section 4102.(3) Section 5116.(4) Section 6103.(5) Section 8110.(6) Sections 9301 to 9307, inclusive.(7) Sections 10105 and 10106.(8) Section 11507.(Added by Stats. 2006, Ch. 254, Sec. 30.

1302.  (a) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (b) or elsewhere in this code, the effect of provisions of this code may be varied by agreement.(b) The obligations of good faith, diligence, reasonableness, and care prescribed by this code may not be disclaimed by agreement. The parties, by agreement, may determine the standards by which the performance of those obligations is to be measured if those standards are not manifestly unreasonable. Whenever this code requires an action to be taken within a reasonable time, a time that is not manifestly unreasonable may be fixed by agreement.(c) The presence of certain provisions of this code of the phrase “unless otherwise agreed,” or words of similar import, does not imply that the effect of other provisions may not be varied by agreement under this section.(Added by Stats. 2006, Ch. 254, Sec. 30.

CA Com Code § 1303 (2021)
2021 California Code|Commercial Code - COM|DIVISION 1 - GENERAL PROVISIONS|CHAPTER 3 - Territorial Applicability and General Rules|Section 1303.

1303.  (a) A “course of performance” is a sequence of conduct between the parties to a particular transaction that exists if:(1) the agreement of the parties with respect to the transaction involves repeated occasions for performance by a party; and(2) the other party, with knowledge of the nature of the performance and opportunity for objection to it, accepts the performance or acquiesces in it without objection.(b) A “course of dealing” is a sequence of conduct concerning previous transactions between the parties to a particular transaction that is fairly to be regarded as establishing a common basis of understanding for interpreting their expressions and other conduct.(c) A “usage of trade” is any practice or method of dealing having such regularity of observance in a place, vocation, or trade as to justify an expectation that it will be observed with respect to the transaction in question. The existence and scope of such a usage must be proved as facts. If it is established that such a usage is embodied in a trade code or similar record, the interpretation of the record is a question of law.(d) A course of performance or course of dealing between the parties or usage of trade in the vocation or trade in which they are engaged or of which they are or should be aware is relevant in ascertaining the meaning of the parties’ agreement, may give particular meaning to specific terms of the agreement, and may supplement or qualify the terms of the agreement. A usage of trade applicable in the place in which part of the performance under the agreement is to occur may be so utilized as to that part of the performance.(e) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (f), the express terms of an agreement and any applicable course of performance, course of dealing, or usage of trade must be construed whenever reasonable as consistent with each other. If such a construction is unreasonable:(1) express terms prevail over course of performance, course of dealing, and usage of trade;(2) course of performance prevails over course of dealing and usage of trade;(3) course of dealing prevails over usage of trade.(f) Subject to Section 2209, a course of performance is relevant to show a waiver or modification of any term inconsistent with the course of performance.(g) Evidence of a relevant usage of trade offered by one party is not admissible unless that party has given the other party notice that the court finds sufficient to prevent unfair surprise to the other party.(Added by renumbering Section 1205 by Stats. 2006, Ch. 254, Sec. 23. Effective January 1, 2007.)

The burden of establishing lack of good faith is on the party against which the power has been exercised.(Added by renumbering Section 1208 by Stats. 2006, Ch. 254, Sec. 27. Effective January 1, 2007.)

Goods which are not both existing and identified are “future” goods. A purported present sale of future goods or of any interest therein operates as a contract to sell.(3) There may be a sale of a part interest in existing identified goods.(4) An undivided share in an identified bulk of fungible goods is sufficiently identified to be sold although the quantity of the bulk is not determined. Any agreed proportion of such a bulk or any quantity thereof agreed upon by number, weight or other measure may to the extent of the seller’s interest in the bulk be sold to the buyer who then becomes an owner in common.(5) “Lot” means a parcel or a single article which is the subject matter of a separate sale or delivery, whether or not it is sufficient to perform the contract.(6) “Commercial unit” means such a unit of goods as by commercial usage is a single whole for purposes of sale and division of which materially impairs its character or value on the market or in use.

2021 California Code|Commercial Code - COM|DIVISION 2 - SALES|CHAPTER 1 - Short Title, General Construction and Subject Matter|Section 2106.

2106.  (1) In this division unless the context otherwise requires “contract” and “agreement” are limited to those relating to the present or future sale of goods. “Contract for sale” includes both a present sale of goods and a contract to sell goods at a future time. A “sale” consists in the passing of title from the seller to the buyer for a price (Section 2401). A “present sale” means a sale which is accomplished by the making of the contract.(2) Goods or conduct including any part of a performance are “conforming” or conform to the contract when they are in accordance with the obligations under the contract.(3) “Termination” occurs when either party pursuant to a power created by agreement or law puts an end to the contract otherwise than for its breach. On “termination” all obligations which are still executory on both sides are discharged but any right based on prior breach or performance survives.(4) “Cancellation” occurs when either party puts an end to the contract for breach by the other and its effect is the same as that of “termination” except that the cancelling party also retains any remedy for breach of the whole contract or any unperformed balance.(Enacted by Stats. 1963, Ch. 819.)
CA Com Code § 2107 (2021)
2021 California Code|Commercial Code - COM|DIVISION 2 - SALES|CHAPTER 1 - Short Title, General Construction and Subject Matter|Section 2107.

A writing is not insufficient because it omits or incorrectly states a term agreed upon but the contract is not enforceable under this paragraph beyond the quantity of goods shown in the writing.(2) Between merchants if within a reasonable time a writing in confirmation of the contract and sufficient against the sender is received and the party receiving it has reason to know its contents, it satisfies the requirements of subdivision (1) against the party unless written notice of objection to its contents is given within 10 days after it is received.(3) A contract which does not satisfy the requirements of subdivision (1) but which is valid in other respects is enforceable:(a) If the goods are to be specially manufactured for the buyer and are not suitable for sale to others in the ordinary course of the seller’s business and the seller, before notice of repudiation is received and under circumstances which reasonably indicate that the goods are for the buyer, has made either a substantial beginning of their manufacture or commitments for their procurement;(b) If the party against whom enforcement is sought admits in his or her pleading, testimony, or otherwise in court that a contract for sale was made, but the contract is not enforceable under this provision beyond the quantity of goods admitted; or(c) With respect to goods for which payment has been made and accepted or which have been received and accepted (Section 2606).(4) Subdivision (1) of this section does not apply to a qualified financial contract as that term is defined in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 1624 of the Civil Code if either (a) there is, as provided in paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of 1624 of the Civil Code, sufficient evidence to indicate that a contract has been made or (b) the parties thereto, by means of a prior or subsequent written contract, have agreed to be bound by the terms of the qualified financial contract from the time they reach agreement (by telephone, by exchange of electronic messages, or otherwise) on those terms.(Amended by Stats. 1998, Ch. 78, Sec. 3. Effective January 1, 1999.)

Effective January 1, 2007.)
CA Com Code § 2204 (2021)

2204.  (1) A contract for sale of goods may be made in any manner sufficient to show agreement, including conduct by both parties which recognizes the existence of such a contract.(2) An agreement sufficient to constitute a contract for sale may be found even though the moment of its making is undetermined.(3) Even though one or more terms are left open a contract for sale does not fail for indefiniteness if the parties have intended to make a contract and there is a reasonably certain basis for giving an appropriate remedy.(Enacted by Stats. 1963, Ch. 819.)
