AS 45.01.302

Variation by agreement

Known as the Uniform Commercial Code

The act spans §§ 45–45 (615 sections).

(a) Except as otherwise provided in (b) of this section or elsewhere in the code, the effect of provisions of the code may be varied by agreement.

(b) The obligations of good faith, diligence, reasonableness, and care prescribed by the 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 the 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 in certain provisions of the 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.
