Text: 63 The district court instructed the jury to determine whether the oral agreement reached by Donald Mutschler and Kluempke required General Mills to furnish trucks and further to determine whether additional terms of the written confirmation materially altered the oral agreement. The district court further advised that additional terms of the written confirmation which did materially alter the oral agreement do not become a part of the contract. 64 Appellant argues that the district court erred in failing to hold as a matter of law that General Mills materially had altered the terms of the contract by including within its confirmation form the provision in the remedy section reserving to the seller the right to extend time of shipment   . Mutschler also asserts that this provision is unconscionable and unenforceable. By these contentions, appellant seeks to reinforce its claims that the contract terminated on April 30, 1973, at a time when the cash market price for barley was below the contract price. 65 The district court fully considered these claims and denied them for reasons we find persuasive. We reject these claims on the basis of the district court's opinion. Jamestown Farmers Elevator, Inc. v. General Mills, 413 F.Supp. 764, 771-73. 66
