Section 2--302. Unconscionable Contract or Clause.

(1) If the court as a matter of law finds the contract or any clause

of the contract to have been unconscionable at the time it was made the

court may refuse to enforce the contract, or it may enforce the

remainder of the contract without the unconscionable clause, or it may

so limit the application of any unconscionable clause as to avoid any

unconscionable result.

(2) When it is claimed or appears to the court that the contract or

any clause thereof may be unconscionable the parties shall be afforded a

reasonable opportunity to present evidence as to its commercial setting,

purpose and effect to aid the court in making the determination.
