AS 45.02.202

Final written expression; parol or extrinsic evidence

Known as the Uniform Commercial Code

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

Terms with respect to which the confirmatory memoranda of the parties agree, or that are otherwise set out in a writing intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement with respect to the terms included in the writing, may not be contradicted by evidence of a prior agreement or of a contemporaneous oral agreement, but may be explained or supplemented (1) by course of performance, course of dealing, or usage of trade (AS 45.01.303); and

(2) by evidence of consistent additional terms unless the court finds the writing was intended also as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement.
