Later on, according to holiday cookie manufacturer, the last shipment contained spoiled baking sugar and flour. Holiday cookie filed a breach of contract action in state court. The supplier filed a motion to have the dispute transferred to arbitration Holiday cookie manufacturer's purchase order forms were silent with respect to the mode of settling disputes, but the supplier's form contained a clause calling for any controversy or claim to be settled by binding arbitration, Holiday cookie manufacturer was silent as to the arbitration clause. What is the likely decision of the court? The clause did not become part of the contract since it materially altered the offer, and as a result there would be no transfer to arbitration The clause did not become incorporated into the contract since the offer in this case expressly limited acceptance to the strict terms of the offer, and therefore there is no transfer to arbitration, The case must be transferred to arbitration since the additional term did not materially alter the offer, and as a result became automatically incorporated into the contract The case must be transferred to arbitration since any additional cause in a written acceptance always becomes a part of the contract if the offeror does not reject it.
