Section 10

Unless a different intention appears from the terms of the contract, stipulations as to time of payment are not of the essence of a contract of sale. Whether any other stipulation as to time is or is not of the essence of the contract depends on the terms of the contract. In a contract of sale “month” prima facie means calendar month.
