UNIDROIT PRINCIPLES OF INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL CONTRACTS FORMATION AND AUTHORITY OF AGENTS MANNER OF FORMATION : OFFER AND ACCEPTANCE ACCEPTANCE A RTICLE 2.1.10(Withdrawal of acceptance) An acceptance may be withdrawn if the withdrawal reaches the offeror before or at the same time as the acceptance would have become effective. C OMMENTWith respect to the withdrawal of an acceptance the present article lays down the same principle as that contained in Art. 2.1.3 concerning the withdrawal of an offer, i.e. that the offeree may change its mind and withdraw the acceptance provided that the withdrawal reaches the offeror before or at the same time as the acceptance. It should be noted that while the offeror is bound by the offer and may no longer change its mind once the offeree has dispatched the acceptance (see Art. 2.1.4(1)), the offeree looses its freedom of choice only at a later stage, i.e. when the notice of acceptance reaches the offeror. This article corresponds to Art. 22 CISG. |
