UCC Article 2 permits an acceptance to include additional or different terms without constituting a rejection of the offer. Additional terms proposed by the offeree become part of the contract only if: (1) both parties are merchants, (2) the additional terms do not materially alter the agreement, (3) the offer does not expressly limit acceptance to its own terms, and (4) the offeror does not object to the additional terms within a reasonable time.
