“"Terms are implied not because they are just or reasonable, but rather for the reason that the parties must have intended them and have only failed to express them. . . . or because they are necessary to give business efficacy to the contract as written, or to give the contract the effect which the parties, as fair and reasonable men (sic), presumably would have agreed on if, having in mind the possibility of the situation which has arisen, then contracted expressly in reference thereto."”
