Wholesaler shall have the option to accept and pay for, or reject in writing to HBCBD, delivery of any quantity that is in excess of the quantity specified, or delivery of Products that were not ordered.  Any time quoted for delivery is an estimate only; provided, however, that HBCBD shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver all Products on or before the requested delivery date.
