SECTION 2-311
Options and Cooperation Respecting Performance
Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) CHAPTER 38, ARTICLE 2, PART 3
Section 2--311. Options and Cooperation Respecting Performance.

(1) An agreement for sale which is otherwise sufficiently definite
(subsection (3) of Section 2--204) to be a contract is not made invalid
by the fact that it leaves particulars of performance to be specified by
one of the parties. Any such specification must be made in good faith
and within limits set by commercial reasonableness.

(2) Unless otherwise agreed specifications relating to assortment of
the goods are at the buyer's option and except as otherwise provided in
subsections (1) (c) and (3) of Section 2--319 specifications or
arrangements relating to shipment are at the seller's option.

(3) Where such specification would materially affect the other party's
performance but is not seasonably made or where one party's cooperation
is necessary to the agreed performance of the other but is not
seasonably forthcoming, the other party in addition to all other
remedies

(a) is excused for any resulting delay in his own performance;

and

(b) may also either proceed to perform in any reasonable manner

or after the time for a material part of his own performance

treat the failure to specify or to cooperate as a breach by

failure to deliver or accept the goods.
