§ 25-2-202. Final expression; parol or extrinsic evidence.
Terms with respect to which the confirmatory memoranda of the parties agree or that are otherwise set forth in a record intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement with respect to the terms included in it shall not be contradicted by evidence of any prior agreement or of a contemporaneous oral agreement but may be explained or supplemented by the following:
(1)By course of dealing or usage of trade (G.S. 25-1-205) or by course of performance (G.S. 25-2-208).
(2)By evidence of consistent additional terms unless the court finds the record to have been intended also as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement. (1965, c. 700, s. 1; 2006-112, s. 3; 2025-25, s. 117.)
