| 单词 | Counter-offer |
| 释义 | 反要約 In contract law, an offer to contract made by one party in response to a prior offer by the other party. A conditional acceptance of an offer amounts to a counter-offer, not an acceptance. A purported acceptance which proposes one or more additional or different terms is ineffective as an acceptance and operates merely as a counter-offer: Tinn v Hoffman & Co (1873) 29 LT 271; Butler Machine Tool v Ex-Cell-o Corp (England) Ltd [1979] 1 All ER 965, 1 WLR 401. When counter-offer is made by one party, it has invalidated the original offer of the first party. If the first party had not communicated his rejection of the counter-offer orally or in writing, then, applying the objective test applicable in contract law, the first party would have by his conduct accepted the second party’s terms which contained its counter offer: Manohar Chugh t/a Electric & Electronic Industries v Oka Electronics Ltd [1991] 2 HKC (CA). See also Acceptance; Battle of forms; Contract; Offer; Term. 在合約法，一方回應另一方先前的要約提出的要約。有條件承約相當於反要約，不是承約。聲稱承約但提出一項或多項額外或不同的條件實際不是承約，只作反要約看待: Tinn v Hoffman & Co (1873) 29 LT 271; Butler Machine Tool v Ex-Cell-o Corp (England) Ltd [1979] 1 All ER 965, 1 WLR 401。一方提出反要約，最先一方提出的原本要約即告無效。最先一方如果未有口頭或書面通知拒絕反要約，然後引用合約法適用的客觀測試，最先一方因其行為相當於接納反要約一方在反要約中提出的條件：Manohar Chugh t/a Electric & Electronic Industries v Oka Electronics Ltd [1991] 2 HKC（上訴法院）。另見 Acceptance; Battle of forms; Contract; Offer; Term。 |
