INSTITUTE TIME CLAUSES
HULLS
This insurance is subject to English law and practice
1 NAVIGATION
1.1 The Vessel is covered subject to the provisions of this insurance at
all times and has leave to sail or navigate with
or
without pilots, to go on trial trips and to assist and tow vessels or craft in
distress, but it is warranted that the
Vessel shall not be towed, except as is customary or to the first
safe port or place when in need of assistance, or
undertake towage or salvage services under a
contract previously arranged by the Assured and/or Owners and/or
Managers and/or Charterers. This Clause 1.1
shall not exclude customary towage in connection with loading and
discharging.
1.2 In the event of the
Vessel being employed in trading operations which entail cargo loading or
discharging at sea
from or into another vessel (not being a harbour or
inshore craft) no claim shall be recoverable under this insurance for loss of or damage to the Vessel
or liability to any other vessel arising from such loading or discharging operations, including whilst
approaching, lying alongside and leaving, unless previous notice that the
Vessel is to be employed in such operations has been given to the Underwriters
and any amended terms of cover and any additional
premium required by them have been agreed.
1.3 In the event of the Vessel sailing (with or
without cargo) with an intention of being (a) broken up, or (b) sold for
breaking
up, any claim for loss of or damage to the Vessel occurring subsequent to such
sailing shall be limited
to the market value of the Vessel as scrap at
the time when the loss or damage is sustained, unless previous notice
has been given to the Underwriters and any
amendments to the terms of cover, insured value and premium
required by them have been agreed. Nothing in this Clause 1.3
shall affect claims under Clauses 8 and/or 11.
2 CONTINUATION
Should the Vessel at the expiration of this insurance be
at sea or in distress or at a port of refuge or of call, she shall,
provided previous notice be given to the
Underwriters, be held covered at a pro rata monthly premium to her port of
destination.
3 BREACH OF
WARRANTY
Held
covered in case of any breach of warranty as to cargo, trade, locality, towage,
salvage services or date of sailing, provided notice be given to the
Underwriters immediately after receipt of advices and any amended terms of
cover and any additional premium required by them be agreed.
4 TERMINATION
This Clause 4 shall prevail notwithstanding any
provision whether written typed or printed in this insurance inconsistent
therewith.
Unless the Underwriters agree to the contrary in writing, this
insurance shall terminate automatically at the time of
4.1 change of the
Classification Society of the Vessel, or change, suspension, discontinuance,
withdrawal or expiry
of her Class therein, provided that if the Vessel is at
sea such automatic termination shall be deferred until arrival
at her next port. However where such change,
suspension, discontinuance or withdrawal of her Class has resulted
from loss or damage covered by Clause 6 of
this insurance or which would be covered by an insurance of the
Vessel
subject to current Institute War and Strikes Clauses Hulls-Time such automatic
termination shall only operate should the Vessel sail
from her next port without the prior approval of the Classification Society,
4.2 any change, voluntary or otherwise, in the
ownership or flag, transfer to new management, or charter on a
bareboat basis, or requisition for title or use of the
Vessel, provided that, if the Vessel has cargo on board and has
already sailed from her loading port or is at
sea in ballast, such automatic termination shall if required be
deferred, whilst the Vessel continues her planned voyage, until
arrival at final port of discharge if with cargo or
1
at port
of destination if in ballast. However, in the event of requisition for title or
use without the prior execution of a written agreement by the
Assured, such automatic termination shall occur fifteen days after such
requisition whether the Vessel is at sea or in port.
A pro rata daily net return of premium shall be made.
5 ASSIGNMENT
No assignment of or interest in this insurance or in any
moneys which may be or become payable thereunder is to be binding on or recognised by the Underwriters
unless a dated notice of such assignment or interest signed by the Assured, and by the assignor in the case of subsequent
assignment, is endorsed on the Policy and the Policy with such endorsement is produced before payment of any claim or return of
premium thereunder.

due diligence by the Assured, Owners or
Managers.
6.3 Master Officers Crew or Pilots not to be considered
Owners within the meaning of this Clause 6 should they
hold shares in the Vessel.
7 POLLUTION HAZARD
This insurance covers loss of or damage to the Vessel
caused by any governmental authority acting under the powers
vested in it to prevent or mitigate a pollution hazard, or threat
thereof, resulting directly from damage to the Vessel for
which the Underwriters are liable under this
insurance, provided such act of governmental authority has not resulted
from want of due diligence by the Assured,
the Owners, or Managers of the Vessel or any of them to prevent or mitigate
such hazard or threat. Master, Officers,
Crew or Pilots not to be considered Owners within the meaning of this Clause
7 should they hold shares in the Vessel.
8 3/4THS COLLISION LIABILITY
8.1 The
Underwriters agree to indemnify the Assured for three-fourths of any sum or
sums paid by the Assured to
any other person or persons by reason of the Assured becoming
legally liable by way of damages for
8.1.1 loss
of or damage to any other vessel or property on any other vessel
8.1.2 delay
to or loss of use of any such other vessel or property thereon
8.1.3 general average of, salvage of, or salvage under
contract of, any such other vessel or property thereon, where
such
payment by the Assured is in consequence of the Vessel hereby insured coming
into collision with any other vessel.
2
8.2 The indemnity provided by this Clause 8 shall be
in addition to the indemnity provided by the other terms and
conditions of this insurance and shall be subject to the following
provisions:
8.2.1 Where the insured Vessel is in collision with
another vessel and both vessels are to blame then, unless the
liability
of one or both vessels becomes limited by law, the indemnity under this Clause
8 shall be calculated on the principle of cross-liabilities as if the
respective Owners had been compelled to pay to each other such proportion of each other’s damages as may have
been properly allowed in ascertaining the balance or sum payable by or
to the Assured in consequence of the collision.
8.2.2 In no case
shall the Underwriters’ total liability under Clauses 8.1 and 8.2 exceed their
proportionate part of
three-fourths of the insured value of the Vessel hereby insured in
respect of any one collision.
8.3 The Underwriters will also pay three-fourths of the
legal costs incurred by the Assured or which the Assured
may be compelled to pay in contesting liability or taking
proceedings to limit liability, with the prior written consent
of the Underwriters.
EXCLUSIONS
8.4 Provided always that this
Clause 8 shall in no case extend to any sum which the Assured shall pay for or
in
respect of
8.4.1 removal
or disposal of obstructions, wrecks, cargoes or any other thing whatsoever
8.4.2 any
real or personal property or thing whatsoever except other vessels or property
on other vessels
8.4.3 the
cargo or other property on, or the engagements of, the insured Vessel
8.4.4 loss
of life, personal injury or illness
8.4.5 pollution
or contamination of any real or personal property or thing whatsoever (except
other vessels with
which the insured Vessel is in collision or property on such other
vessels).
9 SISTERSHIP
Should the Vessel hereby insured come into collision with
or receive salvage services from another vessel belonging wholly or in part to the same Owners or
under the same management, the Assured shall have the same rights under this insurance as they would have were the other vessel entirely the
property of Owners not interested in the Vessel hereby insured; but in such
cases the liability for the collision or the amount payable for the services
rendered shall be referred to a sole
arbitrator to be agreed upon between the Underwriters and the Assured.
10 NOTICE OF CLAIM AND
TENDERS
10.1 In the event of accident whereby loss or damage
may result in a claim under this insurance, notice shall be given
to the Underwriters prior to survey and also, if the
Vessel is abroad, to the nearest Agent* so that a surveyor may be
appointed to represent the Underwriters should they so desire.
10.2 The Underwriters
shall be entitled to decide the port to which the Vessel shall proceed for
docking or repair (the
actual additional expense of the voyage arising from
compliance with the Underwriters’ requirements being refunded
to the Assured) and shall have a right of veto concerning a place of repair or
a repairing firm.
10.3 The Underwriters may also take tenders or may
require further tenders to be taken for the repair of the Vessel.
Where such a tender has been taken and a tender is
accepted with the approval of the Underwriters, an allowance shall be made at the rate of 30% per annum on
the insured value for time lost between the despatch of the invitations to tender required by Underwriters and the acceptance
of a tender to the extent that such time is lost solely as the result of tenders having been taken and provided that the
tender is accepted without delay after receipt of the Underwriters’
approval.
Due credit shall be given against the allowance as above for any
amounts recovered in respect of fuel and stores and wages and maintenance of the Master Officers and Crew or any member
thereof, including amounts allowed in general average, and for any
amounts recovered from third parties in respect of damages for detention and/or
loss of profit and/or running expenses, for the period covered by the tender
allowance or any part thereof.
Where a part of the cost of the repair of
damage other than a fixed deductible is not recoverable from the Underwriters the allowance shall be reduced by a similar
proportion.
10.4 In the event of failure to comply with the
conditions of this Clause 10 a deduction of 15% shall be made from
3
the amount of the ascertained claim.
11
GENERAL AVERAGE AND SALVAGE
11.1
This insurance covers the Vessel’s proportion of salvage, salvage
charges and/or general average, reduced in
respect of any under-insurance, but in case of
general average sacrifice of the Vessel the Assured may recover in
respect of the whole loss without first enforcing their right of
contribution from other parties.
11.2
Adjustment to be according to the law and practice obtaining at the
place where the adventure ends, as if the
contract of affreightment contained no special
terms upon the subject; but where the contract of affreightment
so provides the adjustment shall be according to the York-Antwerp
Rules.
11.3 When the Vessel sails
in ballast, not under charter, the provisions of the York-Antwerp Rules, 1974
(excluding
Rules XX and XXI)
shall be applicable, and the voyage for this purpose shall be deemed to
continue from the
port or
place of departure until the arrival of the Vessel at the first port or place
thereafter other than a port or
place of refuge or a port or place of call for bunkering only. If
at any such intermediate port or place there is an
abandonment of the adventure originally contemplated the voyage
shall thereupon be deemed to be terminated.
11.4 No claim
under this Clause 11 shall in any case be allowed where the loss was not
incurred to avoid or in
connection with
the avoidance of a peril insured against.
12
DEDUCTIBLE
12.1 No claim arising from a peril insured against shall
be payable under this insurance unless the aggregate of all
such claims arising out of each separate
accident or occurrence (including claims under Clauses 8, 11 and 13)
exceeds (as specified in the POLICY) in which case this sum shall be deducted.
Nevertheless the expense of sighting the bottom after
stranding, if reasonably incurred specially for that purpose, shall be paid even if no damage be found.
This Clause 12.1 shall not apply to a claim for total or constructive total loss of the Vessel or, in the event of such a claim, to any
associated claim under Clause 13 arising from the same accident or occurrence.
12.2 Claims for damage by
heavy weather occurring during a single sea passage between two successive
ports shall
be treated as being due to one accident. In the case of
such heavy weather extending over a period not wholly covered
by this insurance the deductible to be applied to the claim recoverable
hereunder shall be the proportion of the
above deductible that the number of days of such heavy weather falling within
the period of this insurance bears to the number of days of heavy
weather during the single sea passage. The expression “heavy weather” in this
Clause 12.2 shall be deemed to include contact with floating ice.
12.3 Excluding any
interest comprised therein, recoveries against any claim which is subject to
the above deductible
shall be credited to the Underwriters in full to the
extent of the sum by which the aggregate of the claim unreduced
by any recoveries exceeds the above deductible.
12.4 Interest comprised in recoveries shall be
apportioned between the Assured and the Underwriters, taking into
account
the sums paid by the Underwriters and the dates when such payments were made,
notwithstanding that by the addition of interest the Underwriters may receive a
larger sum than they have paid.
13 DUTY OF ASSURED(SUE
AND LABOUR)
13.1
In case of any loss or misfortune it is the duty of the Assured and
their servants and agents to take such measures
as may be reasonable for the purpose of averting
or minimising a loss which would be recoverable under this
insurance.
13.2
Subject to the provisions below and to Clause 12 the Underwriters will
contribute to charges properly and
reasonably incurred by the Assured their servants
or agents for such measures. General average, salvage charges
(except as provided for in Clause 13.5) and
collision defence or attack costs are not recoverable under this Clause
13.
13.3
Measures taken by the Assured or the Underwriters with the object of
saving, protecting or recovering the
subject-matter
insured shall not be considered as a waiver or acceptance of abandonment or
otherwise prejudice
the rights of either party.
13.4
When expenses are incurred pursuant to this Clause 13 the liability
under this insurance shall not exceed the
4
proportion of such expenses
that the amount insured hereunder bears to the value of the Vessel as stated
herein,
or to the sound value of the Vessel at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure if the sound value
exceeds that value. Where the Underwriters
have admitted a claim for total loss and property insured by this
insurance is saved, the foregoing provisions
shall not apply unless the expenses of suing and labouring exceed
the value of such property saved and then
shall apply only to the amount of the expenses which is in excess of
such value.
13.5 When a claim for total loss of the Vessel is
admitted under this insurance and expenses have been reasonably
incurred in saving or attempting to save the Vessel and
other property and there are no proceeds, or the expenses
exceed the proceeds, then this insurance
shall bear its pro rata share of such proportion of the expenses, or of the
expenses in excess of the proceeds, as the case may be, as may
reasonably be regarded as having been incurred
in respect of the Vessel; but if the Vessel
be insured for less than its sound value at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure, the amount
recoverable under this clause shall be reduced in proportion to the
under-insurance.
13.6 The sum recoverable under this Clause 13 shall be
in addition to the loss otherwise recoverable under this
insurance but shall in no circumstances exceed the amount insured
under this insurance in respect of the Vessel.

15 BOTTOM TREATMENT
In no case shall a claim be allowed in respect of
scraping gritblasting and/or other surface preparation or painting of the Vessel’s bottom except that

ashore and supplying and applying any “shop”
primer thereto,

respect of bottom plating damaged by an insured peril.
16 WAGES AND
MAINTENANCE
No claim shall be allowed, other than in general
average, for wages and maintenance of the Master, Officers and Crew, or any member thereof, except when incurred solely for the
necessary removal of the Vessel from one port to another for the repair of damage covered by the

In no case shall any sum be allowed under this insurance
either by way of remuneration of the Assured for time and
trouble taken to obtain and supply

like, appointed by or on behalf of the Assured to perform such services.
18 UNREPAIRED DAMAGE

market value of
the Vessel at the time this insurance terminates arising from such unrepaired
damage, but not
exceeding the reasonable cost of repairs.
18.2

event of a subsequent total loss (whether
or not covered under this insurance) sustained
during the period covered by this insurance or any extension
thereof.
18.3 The Underwriters
shall not be liable in respect of unrepaired damage for more than the insured
value at the time
5
this insurance terminates.
19 CONSTRUCTIVE TOTAL
LOSS
19.1
In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive total loss, the
insured value shall be taken as the repaired
value and nothing in respect of the damaged or
break-up value of the Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
19.2 No claim for
constructive total loss based upon the cost of recovery and/or repair of the
Vessel shall be
recoverable
hereunder unless such cost would exceed the insured value. In making this
determination, only the
cost
relating to a single accident or sequence of damages arising from the same
accident shall be taken into
account.

of the Assured, Owners, Managers or
Mortgagees. Provided always that a breach of this warranty shall not afford

1.1 The
subject-matter insured is covered subject to the provisions of this insurance
at all times and the Vessel has
leave to sail or navigate with or without pilots, to go
on trial trips and to assist and tow vessels or craft in distress, but it is
warranted that the Vessel shall not be towed, except as is customary or to the
first safe port or place when in need of
assistance, or undertake towage or salvage services under a contract previously
arranged by the Assured and/or
Owners and/or Managers and/or Charterers. This Clause 1.1 shall not exclude
customary towage in connection with loading and discharging.
1.2 In the event of the
Vessel being employed in trading operations which entail cargo loading or
discharging at sea
from or into another vessel (not being a harbour or
inshore craft) no claim shall be recoverable under this
insurance in respect of loss of or damage to the subject-matter
insured or for liability to any other vessel arising
from such loading or discharging operations, including whilst
approaching, lying alongside and leaving, unless
previous notice that the
Vessel is to be employed in such operations has been given to the Underwriters
and any amended terms of cover and any additional premium required by them have
been agreed.
1.3 In the event of the Vessel sailing (with or
without cargo) with an intention of being (a) broken up, or (b) sold for

Classification Society of the Vessel, or change, suspension, discontinuance,
withdrawal or expiry
of her Class therein, provided that if the Vessel is at
sea such automatic termination shall be deferred until arrival
at her next port. However where such change,
suspension, discontinuance or withdrawal of her Class has resulted
from loss or damage which would be covered
by an insurance of the Vessel subject to current Institute Time
Clauses
Hulls or Institute War and Strikes Clauses Hulls-Time such automatic
termination shall only operate should the Vessel sail from
her next port without the prior approval of the Classification Society,

ownership or flag, transfer to new management, or charter on a
bareboat basis, or requisition for title or use of the
Vessel, provided that, if the Vessel has cargo on board and has
already sailed from her loading port or is at
sea in ballast, such automatic termination shall if required be
deferred, whilst the Vessel continues her planned voyage, until
arrival at final port of discharge if with cargo or
at port of destination if in ballast.
However, in the event of requisition for title or use without the prior
execution
of a written agreement by the Assured, such
automatic termination shall occur fifteen days after such requisition

practice or the terms of the insurances covering hull and
machinery may have required) and the value of the
Vessel

from want of due diligence by the Assured,
the Owners, or Managers of the Vessel or any of them to prevent or mitigate
such hazard or threat. Master, Officers,
Crew or Pilots not to be considered Owners within the meaning of this Clause
7 should they hold shares in the Vessel.
8 NOTICE OF CLAIM

event of accident whereby loss or damage may result in a claim under this
insurance, notice shall be given to the Underwriters
prior to survey and also, if the Vessel is abroad, to the nearest Agent*
so that a surveyor may be appointed to represent the Underwriters should they
so desire.
9 CONSTRUCTIVE
TOTAL LOSS
9.1 In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive total loss, the
insured value in the insurances on hull and
machinery shall be taken as the repaired value and
nothing in respect of the damaged or break-up value of the Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
9.2 No claim for constructive total loss based upon the
cost of recovery and/or repair of the Vessel shall be
recoverable hereunder unless such cost would exceed the
insured value in the insurances on hull and machinery. In
making this determination, only the cost relating to a single accident or
sequence of damages arising from the same
accident shall be taken into account.
9.3 Provided that the
Constructive Total Loss Clause in the current Institute Time Clauses Hulls or a
clause having
a similar effect is contained in the insurances on hull
and machinery, the settlement of a claim for constructive total loss thereunder shall be accepted as proof of the
constructive total loss of the Vessel.
9.4 Should the Vessel be a constructive total loss but
the claim on the insurances on hull and machinery be settled
as a claim for partial loss, no payment shall be due under this
Clause 9.
10 COMPROMISED TOTAL
LOSS

event of a claim for total loss or constructive total loss being settled on the
insurances on hull and machinery as a compromised total loss the amount payable

premium required by them have been agreed.
1.3 In the event of the Vessel sailing (with or
without cargo) with an intention of being (a) broken up, or (b) sold for
breaking
up, any claim for loss of or damage to the Vessel occurring subsequent to such
sailing shall be limited
to the market value of the Vessel as scrap at
the time when the loss or damage is sustained, unless previous notice
has been given to the Underwriters and any
amendments to the terms of cover, insured value and premium
required by them have been agreed. Nothing in this Clause 1.3
shall affect claims under Clauses 8 and/or 11.
2 CONTINUATION
Should the Vessel at the expiration of this insurance be
at sea or in distress or at a port of refuge or of call, she shall,
provided previous notice be given to the
Underwriters, be held covered at a pro rata monthly premium to her port of
destination.
3 BREACH OF
WARRANTY
Held
covered in case of any breach of warranty as to cargo, trade, locality, towage,
salvage services or date of sailing, provided notice be given to the
Underwriters immediately after receipt of advices and any amended terms of
cover and any additional premium required by them be agreed.
4 TERMINATION
This Clause 4 shall prevail notwithstanding any
provision whether written typed or printed in this insurance inconsistent
therewith.
Unless the Underwriters agree to the contrary in writing, this
insurance shall terminate automatically at the time of
4.1 change of the
Classification Society of the Vessel, or change, suspension, discontinuance,
withdrawal or expiry
of her Class therein, provided that if the Vessel is at
sea such automatic termination shall be deferred until arrival
at her next port. However where such change,
suspension, discontinuance or withdrawal of her Class has resulted
from loss or damage covered by Clause 6 of
this insurance or which would be covered by an insurance of the
13
Vessel
subject to current Institute War and Strikes Clauses Hulls-Time such automatic
termination shall only operate should the Vessel sail
from her next port without the prior approval of the Classification Society,
4.2 any change, voluntary or otherwise, in the
ownership or flag, transfer to new management, or charter on a
bareboat basis, or requisition for title or use of the
Vessel, provided that, if the Vessel has cargo on board and has already sailed from her loading port or is at
sea in ballast, such automatic termination shall if required be deferred, whilst the Vessel continues her planned voyage, until
arrival at final port of discharge if with cargo or at port of destination if in ballast. However, in the event of
requisition for title or use without the prior execution of a written
agreement by the Assured, such automatic termination shall occur fifteen days
after such requisition whether the Vessel is at sea or in port.
A pro rata daily net return of premium shall be made.
5 ASSIGNMENT
No assignment of or interest in this insurance or in any
moneys which may be or become payable thereunder is to be binding on or recognised by the Underwriters

provisions:
8.2.1 Where the insured Vessel is in collision with
another vessel and both vessels are to blame then, unless the

cases the liability for the collision or the amount payable for the services
rendered shall be referred to a sole
arbitrator to be agreed upon between the Underwriters and the Assured.
10 NOTICE OF CLAIM AND
TENDERS
10.1 In the event of
accident whereby loss or damage may result in a claim under this insurance,
notice shall be given
to the
Underwriters prior to survey and also, if the Vessel is abroad, to the nearest Lloyd’s
Agent*5 so that a
surveyor may be appointed to represent the Underwriters should
they so desire.
10.2 The Underwriters
shall be entitled to decide the port to which the Vessel shall proceed for
docking or repair (the
actual additional
expense of the voyage arising from compliance with the Underwriters’
requirements being
refunded to the Assured) and shall have a right of veto concerning
a place of repair or a repairing firm.
10.3
The Underwriters may also take tenders or may require further tenders to
be taken for the repair of the Vessel.
Where such a tender has been taken and a tender
is accepted with the approval of the Underwriters, an allowance
shall be made at the rate of 30% per annum on the insured
value for time lost between the despatch of the
invitations to tender required by Underwriters and the acceptance
of a tender to the extent that such time is lost
solely as the result of tenders having been taken and provided
that the tender is accepted without delay after
15
receipt of the Underwriters’ approval.
Due credit shall be given against the allowance as above for any
amounts recovered in respect of fuel and stores and wages and maintenance of the Master Officers and Crew or any member
thereof, including amounts allowed in general average, and for any
amounts recovered from third parties in respect of damages for detention and/or
loss of profit and/or running expenses, for the period covered by the tender
allowance or any part thereof.
Where a part of the cost of the repair of
damage other than a fixed deductible is not recoverable from the Underwriters the allowance shall be reduced by a similar
proportion.
10.4 In the event
of failure to comply with the conditions of this Clause 10 a deduction of 15%
shall be made from
the amount of
the ascertained claim.
11
GENERAL AVERAGE AND SALVAGE
11.1
This insurance covers the Vessel’s proportion of salvage, salvage
charges and/or general average, reduced in
respect of any under-insurance, but in case of general average sacrifice of the
Vessel the Assured may recover in
respect of the whole loss without first enforcing their right of
contribution from other parties.
11.2
Adjustment to be according to the law and practice obtaining at the
place where the adventure ends, as if the
contract of affreightment contained no special
terms upon the subject; but where the contract of affreightment
so provides the adjustment shall be according to the York-Antwerp
Rules.
11.3 When the Vessel sails
in ballast, not under charter, the provisions of the York-Antwerp Rules, 1974
(excluding
Rules XX and XXI)
shall be applicable, and the voyage for this purpose shall be deemed to
continue from the
port or
place of departure until the arrival of the Vessel at the first port or place
thereafter other than a port or
place of refuge or a port or place of call for bunkering only. If
at any such intermediate port or place there is an
abandonment of the adventure originally contemplated the voyage
shall thereupon be deemed to be terminated.
11.4 No claim
under this Clause 11 shall in any case be allowed where the loss was not
incurred to avoid or in
connection with
the avoidance of a peril insured against.
12
DEDUCTIBLE
12.1 No claim arising from a peril insured against shall
be payable under this insurance unless the aggregate of all
such claims arising out of each separate
accident or occurrence (including claims under Clauses 8, 11 and 13)
exceeds (as specified in the POLICY) in which case this sum shall be deducted.
Nevertheless the expense of sighting the bottom after
stranding, if reasonably incurred specially for that purpose, shall be paid even if no damage be found.
This Clause 12.1 shall not apply to a claim for total or constructive total loss of the Vessel or, in the event of such a claim, to any
associated claim under Clause 13 arising from the same accident or occurrence.
12.2 Claims for damage by
heavy weather occurring during a single sea passage between two successive
ports shall
be treated as being due to one accident. In the case of
such heavy weather extending over a period not wholly covered by this insurance the deductible to be applied to the
claim recoverable hereunder shall be the proportion of the above deductible that the number of days of such heavy weather
falling within the period of this insurance bears to the number of days
of heavy weather during the single sea passage. The expression “heavy weather”
in this Clause 12.2 shall be deemed to include contact with floating ice.
12.3 Excluding any
interest comprised therein, recoveries against any claim which is subject to
the above deductible
shall be credited to the Underwriters in full to the
extent of the sum by which the aggregate of the claim unreduced by any recoveries exceeds the above deductible.
12.4 Interest comprised in recoveries shall be
apportioned between the Assured and the Underwriters, taking into
account
the sums paid by the Underwriters and the dates when such payments were made,
notwithstanding that by the addition of interest the Underwriters may receive a
larger sum than they have paid.
13 DUTY OF ASSURED(SUE
AND LABOUR)
13.1
In case of any loss or misfortune it is the duty of the Assured and
their servants and agents to take such measures
as may be reasonable for the purpose of averting
or minimising a loss which would be recoverable under this
insurance.
16
13.2 Subject to the provisions below and to Clause 12
the Underwriters will contribute to charges properly and
reasonably incurred by the Assured their servants or
agents for such measures. General average, salvage charges
(except as provided for in Clause 13.5) and
collision defence or attack costs are not recoverable under this Clause
13.
13.3 Measures taken by the Assured or the Underwriters
with the object of saving, protecting or recovering the
subject-matter
insured shall not be considered as a waiver or acceptance of abandonment or
otherwise prejudice the rights of either party.
13.4 When expenses are incurred pursuant to this Clause
13 the liability under this insurance shall not exceed the
proportion
of such expenses that the amount insured hereunder bears to the value of the
Vessel as stated herein,
or to the sound value of the Vessel at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure if the sound value
exceeds that value. Where the Underwriters have admitted a claim for total
loss and property insured by this
insurance is saved, the foregoing provisions
shall not apply unless the expenses of suing and labouring exceed
the value of such property saved and then
shall apply only to the amount of the expenses which is in excess of
such value.
13.5 When a claim for total loss of the Vessel is
admitted under this insurance and expenses have been reasonably
incurred in saving or attempting to save the Vessel and
other property and there are no proceeds, or the expenses
exceed the proceeds, then this insurance
shall bear its pro rata share of such proportion of the expenses, or of the
expenses in excess of the proceeds, as the case may be, as may
reasonably be regarded as having been incurred
in respect of the Vessel; but if the
Vessel be insured for less than its sound value at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure, the amount
recoverable under this clause shall be reduced in proportion to the
under-insurance.
13.6 The sum recoverable under this Clause 13 shall be
in addition to the loss otherwise recoverable under this
insurance but shall in no circumstances exceed the amount insured
under this insurance in respect of the Vessel.
14
NEW FOR OLD
Claims payable without deduction new for old.
15 BOTTOM TREATMENT
In no case shall a claim be allowed in respect of
scraping gritblasting and/or other surface preparation or painting of the Vessel’s bottom except that
15.1
gritblasting and/or other surface preparation of new bottom plates
ashore and supplying and applying any “shop”
primer thereto,
15.2
gritblasting and/or other surface preparation of:
the butts or area of plating immediately adjacent to any
renewed or refitted plating damaged during the course
of welding and/or repairs, areas of plating damaged during the
course of fairing, either in place or ashore,
15.3
supplying and applying the first coat of primer/anti-corrosive to those
particular areas mentioned in 15.1 and
15.2 above,
shall be allowed as part of the reasonable cost of repairs in
respect of bottom plating damaged by an insured peril.
16 WAGES AND
MAINTENANCE
No claim shall be allowed, other than in general
average, for wages and maintenance of the Master, Officers and Crew, or any member thereof, except when incurred solely for the
necessary removal of the Vessel from one port to another for the repair of damage covered by the
Underwriters, or for trial trips for such repairs, and then only for such wages
and maintenance as are incurred whilst the Vessel is under way.
17 AGENCY COMMISSION
In no case shall any sum be allowed under this insurance
either by way of remuneration of the Assured for time and
trouble taken to obtain and supply
information or documents or in respect of the commission or charges of any
manager,
agent, managing or agency company or the
like, appointed by or on behalf of the Assured to perform such services.
17
18 UNREPAIRED DAMAGE
18.1 The measure of
indemnity in respect of claims for unrepaired damage shall be the reasonable
depreciation in the
market value of
the Vessel at the time this insurance terminates arising from such unrepaired
damage, but not
exceeding the reasonable cost of repairs.
18.2
In no case shall the Underwriters be liable for unrepaired damage in the
event of a subsequent total loss (whether
or not covered under this insurance) sustained
during the period covered by this insurance or any extension
thereof.
18.3 The Underwriters
shall not be liable in respect of unrepaired damage for more than the insured
value at the time
this insurance
terminates.
19 CONSTRUCTIVE TOTAL
LOSS
19.1
In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive total loss, the
insured value shall be taken as the repaired
value and nothing in respect of the damaged or
break-up value of the Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
19.2 No claim for
constructive total loss based upon the cost of recovery and/or repair of the
Vessel shall be
recoverable
hereunder unless such cost would exceed the insured value. In making this
determination, only the
cost
relating to a single accident or sequence of damages arising from the same
accident shall be taken into
account.

to any
other like term, is or shall be effected to operate during the currency of this
insurance by or for account
of the Assured, Owners, Managers or
Mortgagees. Provided always that a breach of this warranty shall not afford

1.1 The Vessel is covered subject to the provisions
of this insurance at all times and has leave to sail or navigate with
or
without pilots, to go on trial trips and to assist and tow vessels or craft in
distress, but it is warranted that the
Vessel shall not be towed, except as is customary or to the first
safe port or place when in need of assistance, or
undertake towage or salvage services under a
contract previously arranged by the Assured and/or Owners and/or
Managers and/or Charterers. This Clause 1.1
shall not exclude customary towage in connection with loading and
discharging.
1.2 In the event of the
Vessel being employed in trading operations which entail cargo loading or
discharging at sea
from or into another vessel (not being a harbour or
inshore craft) no claim shall be recoverable under this insurance for loss of or damage to the Vessel
or liability to any other vessel arising from such loading or discharging operations, including whilst
approaching, lying alongside and leaving, unless previous notice that the
Vessel is to be employed in such operations has been given to the Underwriters
and any amended terms of cover and any additional
premium required by them have been agreed.
1.3 In the event of the Vessel sailing (with or
without cargo) with an intention of being (a) broken up, or (b) sold for
breaking up, any claim for loss of or damage to the Vessel
occurring subsequent to such sailing shall be limited
20
to the
market value of the Vessel as scrap at the time when the loss or damage is
sustained, unless previous notice
has been given to the Underwriters and any
amendments to the terms of cover, insured value and premium
required by them have been agreed. Nothing in this Clause 1.3
shall affect claims under Clauses 8 and/or 11.
2 CONTINUATION
Should the Vessel at the expiration of this insurance be
at sea or in distress or at a port of refuge or of call, she shall,
provided previous notice be given to the
Underwriters, be held covered at a pro rata monthly premium to her port of
destination.
3 BREACH OF
WARRANTY
Held

insurance shall terminate automatically at the time of
4.1 change of the
Classification Society of the Vessel, or change, suspension, discontinuance,
withdrawal or expiry
of her Class therein, provided that if the Vessel is at
sea such automatic termination shall be deferred until arrival
at her next port. However where such change,
suspension, discontinuance or withdrawal of her Class has resulted
from loss or damage covered by Clause 6 of
this insurance or which would be covered by an insurance of the
Vessel
subject to current Institute War and Strikes Clauses Hulls-Time such automatic
termination shall only operate should the Vessel sail
from her next port without the prior approval of the Classification Society,
4.2 any change, voluntary or otherwise, in the
ownership or flag, transfer to new management, or charter on a
bareboat basis, or requisition for title or use of the
Vessel, provided that, if the Vessel has cargo on board and has already sailed from her loading port or is at
sea in ballast, such automatic termination shall if required be deferred, whilst the Vessel continues her planned voyage, until
arrival at final port of discharge if with cargo or at port of destination if in ballast. However, in the event of
requisition for title or use without the prior execution of a written
agreement by the Assured, such automatic termination shall occur fifteen days
after such requisition whether the Vessel is at sea or in port.
A pro rata daily net
return of premium shall be made.

conditions of this insurance and shall be subject to the following
provisions:
8.2.1 Where the insured Vessel is in collision with
another vessel and both vessels are to blame then, unless the

been properly allowed in ascertaining the balance or sum payable by or
to the Assured in consequence of the collision.

property of Owners not interested in the Vessel hereby insured; but in such
cases the liability for the collision or the amount payable for the services
rendered shall be referred to a sole
arbitrator to be agreed upon between the Underwriters and the Assured.
10 NOTICE OF CLAIM AND
TENDERS
10.1 In the event of accident whereby loss or damage
may result in a claim under this insurance, notice shall be given
to the Underwriters prior to survey and also, if the
Vessel is abroad, to the nearest Lloyd’s Agent*4 so that a surveyor may be appointed to represent the Underwriters should
they so desire.
10.2 The Underwriters
shall be entitled to decide the port to which the Vessel shall proceed for
docking or repair (the
actual additional expense of the voyage arising from
compliance with the Underwriters’ requirements being refunded
to the Assured) and shall have a right of veto concerning a place of repair or
a repairing firm.
10.3 The Underwriters may also take tenders or may
require further tenders to be taken for the repair of the Vessel.
Where such a tender has been taken and a tender is
accepted with the approval of the Underwriters, an allowance shall be made at the rate of 30% per annum on
the insured value for time lost between the despatch of the invitations to tender required by Underwriters and the acceptance
of a tender to the extent that such time is lost solely as the result of tenders having been taken and provided that the
tender is accepted without delay after receipt of the Underwriters’
approval.
Due credit shall be given against the allowance as above for any
amounts recovered in respect of fuel and stores and wages and maintenance of the Master Officers and Crew or any member
thereof, including amounts allowed in general average, and for any
amounts recovered from third parties in respect of damages for detention and/or
loss of profit and/or running expenses, for the period covered by the tender
allowance or any part thereof.
Where a part of the cost of the repair of
damage other than a fixed deductible is not recoverable from the Underwriters the allowance shall be reduced by a similar
proportion.
10.4 In the event of failure to comply with the
conditions of this Clause 10 a deduction of 15% shall be made from
the amount of the ascertained claim.
11
GENERAL AVERAGE AND SALVAGE
11.1
This insurance covers the Vessel’s proportion of salvage, salvage
charges and/or general average, reduced in
respect of any under-insurance, but in case of general average sacrifice of the
Vessel the Assured may recover in
respect of the whole loss without first enforcing their right of
contribution from other parties.
11.2
Adjustment to be according to the law and practice obtaining at the
place where the adventure ends, as if the
contract of affreightment contained no special
terms upon the subject; but where the contract of affreightment
so provides the adjustment shall be according to the York-Antwerp
Rules.
11.3 When the Vessel sails
in ballast, not under charter, the provisions of the York-Antwerp Rules, 1974
(excluding
Rules XX and XXI)
shall be applicable, and the voyage for this purpose shall be deemed to
continue from the
port or place of departure until the arrival of the
Vessel at the first port or place thereafter other than a port or
place of refuge or a port or place of call for bunkering only. If
at any such intermediate port or place there is an
abandonment of the adventure originally contemplated the voyage
shall thereupon be deemed to be terminated.
11.4
No claim under this Clause 11 shall in any case be allowed where the
loss was not incurred to avoid or in
connection with
the avoidance of a peril insured against.
12
DEDUCTIBLE
12.1
No claim arising from a peril insured against*5 shall
be payable under this insurance unless the aggregate of all
such claims arising out of each separate accident
or occurrence (including claims under Clauses 8, 11 and 13)
exceeds (the
amount specified in the POLICY) in
which case this sum shall be deducted.
23
Nevertheless
the expense of sighting the bottom after stranding*6, if
reasonably incurred specially for that purpose, shall be paid even if no damage
be found. This Clause 12.1 shall not apply to a claim for total or constructive total loss of the Vessel or, in
the event of such a claim, to any associated claim under Clause 13 arising from the same accident or occurrence.
12.2 Claims for damage by
heavy weather occurring during a single sea passage between two successive
ports shall
be treated as being due to one accident. In the case of
such heavy weather extending over a period not wholly covered
by this insurance the deductible to be applied to the claim recoverable
hereunder shall be the proportion of the
above deductible that the number of days of such heavy weather falling within
the period of this insurance bears to the number of days of heavy
weather during the single sea passage. The expression “heavy weather” in
this Clause 12.2 shall be deemed to include contact with floating ice.
12.3 Excluding any
interest comprised therein, recoveries against any claim which is subject to
the above deductible
shall be credited to the Underwriters in full to the
extent of the sum by which the aggregate of the claim unreduced by any recoveries exceeds the above deductible.
12.4 Interest comprised in recoveries shall be
apportioned between the Assured and the Underwriters, taking into
account
the sums paid by the Underwriters and the dates when such payments were made,
notwithstanding that by the addition of interest the Underwriters may receive a
larger sum than they have paid.
13 DUTY OF ASSURED(SUE
AND LABOUR)
13.1 In case of any loss or misfortune it is the duty
of the Assured and their servants and agents to take such measures
as may be reasonable for the purpose of averting or
minimising a loss which would be recoverable under this
insurance.
13.2 Subject to the provisions below and to Clause 12
the Underwriters will contribute to charges properly and
reasonably incurred by the Assured their servants or
agents for such measures. General average, salvage charges
(except as provided for in Clause 13.5) and
collision defence or attack costs are not recoverable under this Clause
13.
13.3 Measures taken by the Assured or the Underwriters
with the object of saving, protecting or recovering the
subject-matter
insured shall not be considered as a waiver or acceptance of abandonment or
otherwise prejudice the rights of either party.
13.4 When expenses are incurred pursuant to this Clause
13 the liability under this insurance shall not exceed the
proportion
of such expenses that the amount insured hereunder bears to the value of the
Vessel as stated herein,
or to the sound value of the Vessel at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure if the sound value
exceeds that value. Where the Underwriters have admitted a claim
for total loss and property insured by this
insurance is saved, the foregoing provisions
shall not apply unless the expenses of suing and labouring exceed
the value of such property saved and then
shall apply only to the amount of the expenses which is in excess of
such value.
13.5 When a claim for total loss of the Vessel is
admitted under this insurance and expenses have been reasonably
incurred in saving or attempting to save the Vessel and
other property and there are no proceeds, or the expenses
exceed the proceeds, then this insurance
shall bear its pro rata share of such proportion of the expenses, or of the
expenses in excess of the proceeds, as the case may be, as may
reasonably be regarded as having been incurred
in respect of the Vessel; but if the
Vessel be insured for less than its sound value at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure, the amount
recoverable under this clause shall be reduced in proportion to the
under-insurance.
13.6 The sum recoverable under this Clause 13 shall be
in addition to the loss otherwise recoverable under this
insurance but shall in no circumstances exceed the amount insured
under this insurance in respect of the Vessel.
14
NEW FOR OLD
Claims payable without deduction new for old.
24
15 BOTTOM TREATMENT
In no case shall a claim be allowed in respect of
scraping gritblasting and/or other surface preparation or painting of the Vessel’s bottom except that
15.1
gritblasting and/or other surface preparation of new bottom plates
ashore and supplying and applying any “shop”
primer thereto,
15.2
gritblasting and/or other surface preparation of:
the butts or area of plating immediately adjacent to any
renewed or refitted plating damaged during the course
of welding and/or repairs, areas of plating damaged during the
course of fairing, either in place or ashore,
15.3
supplying and applying the first coat of primer/anti-corrosive to those
particular areas mentioned in 15.1 and
15.2
above, shall be allowed as part of the reasonable cost of repairs in respect of
bottom plating damaged by an insured peril.
16 WAGES AND
MAINTENANCE
No claim shall be allowed, other than in general
average, for wages and maintenance of the Master, Officers and Crew, or any member thereof, except when incurred solely for the
necessary removal of the Vessel from one port to another for the repair of damage covered by the
Underwriters, or for trial trips for such repairs, and then only for such wages
and maintenance as are incurred whilst the Vessel is under way.
17 AGENCY COMMISSION
In no case shall any sum be allowed under this insurance
either by way of remuneration of the Assured for time and
trouble taken to obtain and supply
information or documents or in respect of the commission or charges of any
manager,
agent, managing or agency company or the
like, appointed by or on behalf of the Assured to perform such services.
18 UNREPAIRED DAMAGE
18.1 The measure of
indemnity in respect of claims for unrepaired damage shall be the reasonable
depreciation in the
market value of
the Vessel at the time this insurance terminates arising from such unrepaired
damage, but not
exceeding the reasonable cost of repairs.
18.2
In no case shall the Underwriters be liable for unrepaired damage in the
event of a subsequent total loss (whether
or not covered under this insurance) sustained
during the period covered by this insurance or any extension
thereof.
18.3 The Underwriters
shall not be liable in respect of unrepaired damage for more than the insured
value at the time
this insurance
terminates.
19 CONSTRUCTIVE TOTAL
LOSS
19.1
In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive total loss, the
insured value shall be taken as the repaired
value and nothing in respect of the damaged or
break-up value of the Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
19.2 No claim for
constructive total loss based upon the cost of recovery and/or repair of the
Vessel shall be
recoverable
hereunder unless such cost would exceed the insured value. In making this
determination, only the
cost
relating to a single accident or sequence of damages arising from the same
accident shall be taken into
account.
20 FREIGHT WAIVER
In the event of total or constructive total loss no claim
to be made by the Underwriters for freight whether notice of abandonment has been given or not.

to any
other like term, is or shall be effected to operate during the currency of this
insurance by or for account

all times and has leave to sail or navigate with
or
without pilots, to go on trial trips and to assist and tow vessels or craft in
distress, but it is warranted that the
Vessel shall not be towed, except as is customary or to the first
safe port or place when in need of assistance, or

contract previously arranged by the Assured and/or Owners and/or
Managers and/or Charterers. This Clause 1.1
shall not exclude customary towage in connection with loading and
discharging.
1.2 In the event of the
Vessel being employed in trading operations which entail cargo loading or
discharging at sea
from or into another vessel (not being a harbour or
inshore craft) no claim shall be recoverable under this insurance for loss of or damage to the Vessel
from such loading or discharging operations, including whilst approaching, lying alongside and leaving,
unless previous notice that the Vessel is to be employed in such operations has been given to the Underwriters
and any amended terms of cover and any additional premium required by them have been agreed.
1.3 In the event of the Vessel sailing (with or
without cargo) with an intention of being (a) broken up, or (b) sold for
breaking
up, any claim for loss of or damage to the Vessel occurring subsequent to such
sailing shall be limited to the market value
of the Vessel as scrap at the time when the loss or damage is sustained, unless
previous notice has been given to the
Underwriters and any amendments to the terms of cover, insured value and
premium required by them have been agreed. Nothing in this Clause 1.3
shall affect claims under Clause 9.
2 CONTINUATION
Should the Vessel at the expiration of this insurance be
at sea or in distress or at a port of refuge or of call, she shall,
provided previous notice be given to the
Underwriters, be held covered at a pro rata monthly premium to her port of
destination.
3 BREACH OF
WARRANTY
Held

insurance shall terminate automatically at the time of
4.1 change of the
Classification Society of the Vessel, or change, suspension, discontinuance,
withdrawal or expiry
of her Class therein, provided that if the Vessel is at
sea such automatic termination shall be deferred until arrival
at her next port. However where such change,
suspension, discontinuance or withdrawal of her Class has resulted
from loss or damage which would be covered
by an insurance of the Vessel subject to current Institute Time
28
Clauses Hulls or Institute War and Strikes Clauses
Hulls-Time such automatic termination shall only operate should the Vessel sail from her next port without the prior
approval of the Classification Society.
4.2 any change, voluntary or otherwise, in the
ownership or flag, transfer to new management, or charter on a
bareboat basis, or requisition for title or use of the
Vessel, provided that, if the Vessel has cargo on board and has already sailed from her loading port or is at
sea in ballast, such automatic termination shall if required be deferred, whilst the Vessel continues her planned voyage, until
arrival at final port of discharge if with cargo or at port of destination if in ballast. However, in the event of
requisition for title or use without the prior execution of a written
agreement by the Assured, such automatic termination shall occur fifteen days
after such requisition whether the Vessel is at sea or in port.
A pro rata daily net return of premium shall be made.
5 ASSIGNMENT

insurance as they would have were the other vessel entirely the property
of Owners not interested in the Vessel hereby insured; but in such cases the amount payable for the services rendered shall be
referred to a sole arbitrator to be agreed upon between the Underwriters
and the Assured.
11 DUTY OF ASSURED
(SUE AND LABOUR)
11.1 In case
of any loss or misfortune it is the duty of the Assured and their servants and
agents to take such measures
as may be reasonable for the purpose of averting or
minimising a loss which would be recoverable under this
insurance.
11.2 Subject to the provisions below the
Underwriters will contribute to charges properly and reasonably incurred by
the
Assured their servants or agents for such measures. General average, salvage
charges and collision defence or attack costs are not recoverable under this
Clause 11.
11.3 Measures
taken by the Assured or the Underwriters with the object of saving, protecting
or recovering the
subject-matter
insured shall not be considered as a waiver or acceptance of abandonment or
otherwise prejudice the rights of either party.
11.4 When
expenses are incurred pursuant to this Clause 11 the liability under this
insurance shall not exceed the
proportion
of such expenses that the amount insured hereunder bears to the value of the
Vessel as stated herein,
or to the sound value of the Vessel at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure if the sound value
exceeds that value. Where the Underwriters have admitted a claim
for total loss and property insured by this
insurance is saved, the foregoing provisions
shall not apply unless the expenses of suing and labouring exceed
the value of such property saved and then
shall apply only to the amount of the expenses which is in excess of
such value.
11.5 When a
claim for total loss of the Vessel is admitted under this insurance and
expenses have been reasonably
incurred in saving or attempting to save the Vessel and
other property and there are no proceeds, or the expenses
exceed the proceeds, then this insurance
shall bear its pro rata share of such proportion of the expenses, or of the
expenses in excess of the proceeds, as the case may be, as may
reasonably be regarded as having been incurred
in respect of the Vessel; but if the
Vessel be-insured for less than its sound value at the time of the occurrence
giving rise to the expenditure, the amount
recoverable under this clause shall be reduced in proportion to the
under insurance.
11.6 The sum
recoverable under this Clause 11 shall be in addition to the loss otherwise
recoverable under this
insurance but shall in no circumstances exceed the amount insured
under this insurance in respect of the Vessel.
12 CONSTRUCTIVE TOTAL
LOSS
12.1
In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive total loss, the
insured value shall be taken as the repaired
value and nothing in respect of the damaged or
break-up value of the Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
12.2 No claim for
constructive total loss based upon the cost of recovery and/or repair of the
Vessel shall be
recoverable
hereunder unless such cost would exceed the insured value. In making this
determination, only the
cost
relating to a single accident or sequence of damages arising from the same
accident shall be taken into
account.

gross freight on next cargo passage, such sum to be
reasonably estimated on the basis of the current rate of freight at time of insurance plus the charges
of insurance. Any sum insured under 14.1.2 to be taken into account and only the excess thereof may be insured.
14.1.5 Time Charter Hire or Charter Hire for Series of Voyages. A sum not exceeding 50% of the gross hire which
is to be earned under the charter in a period not
exceeding 18 months. Any sum insured under 14.1.2 to be
taken into account and only the excess
thereof may be insured, which excess shall be reduced as the hire is

charter. An insurance under this Section may begin on the signing of
the charter.

amounts
permitted therein and no other insurance which includes total loss of the
Vessel P.P.I.,F.I.A., or subject
to any
other like term, is or shall be effected to operate during the currency of this
insurance by or for account
of the Assured, Owners, Managers or
Mortgagees. Provided always that a breach of this warranty shall not afford
the Underwriters any defence to a claim by a Mortgagee who has
accepted this insurance without knowledge of
such breach.

such non-approved lay-up area is deemed to be
within the vicinity of the approved port or lay-up area, days during which the Vessel
is laid up in such non-approved lay-up area may be added to days in the
approved port or lay-up area to calculate a
period of 30 consecutive days and a return shall be allowed for the proportion
of such period during which the Vessel is actually laid up in the
approved port or lay-up area

of cargo on board shall not debar returns but no return shall
be allowed for any period during which the Vessel is being used

accordingly
15.2.5 in the event of

which fall on
successive insurances effected for the same Assured, this
insurance shall only be liable for an amount calculated at pro rata of the period rates 15.1.2 (a)
and/or (b) above for the number of days which come within the period of this insurance and to which a
return is actually applicable. Such overlapping period shall run, at the option of the Assured, either from

any other vessel or property on any other vessel
1.2 delay to or loss of
use of any such other vessel

indemnity provided by the other terms and
conditions of this insurance and shall be subject to the following
provisions:
2.1 Where the insured Vessel is in collision with
another vessel and both vessels are to blame then, unless the liability

Owners and/or Managers and/or Charterers. This Clause 1.1 shall not exclude
customary towage in connection with loading and discharging.

suspension, discontinuance or withdrawal of her Class has resulted
from loss or damage which would be covered
by an insurance of the Vessel subject to current Institute Time
Clauses
Hulls or Institute War and Strikes Clauses Hulls-Time such automatic
termination shall only operate should the Vessel sail
from her next port without the prior approval of the Classification Society,
4.2 any change, voluntary or otherwise, in the
ownership or flag, transfer to new management, or charter on a
bareboat basis, or requisition for title or use of the
Vessel, provided that, if the Vessel has cargo on board and has already sailed from her loading port or is at
sea in ballast, such automatic termination shall if required be deferred, whilst the Vessel continues her planned voyage, until

from want of due diligence by the Assured,
the Owners, or Managers of the Vessel or any of them to prevent or mitigate
such hazard or threat. Master, Officers,

if the Vessel is abroad, to the nearest Lloyd’s Agent*2 so
that a surveyor may be appointed to represent the Underwriters should they so
desire.
9 CONSTRUCTIVE
TOTAL LOSS
9.1 In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive total loss, the
insured value in the insurances on hull and
machinery shall be taken as the repaired value and
nothing in respect of the damaged or break-up value of the Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
9.2 No claim for constructive total loss based upon the
cost of recovery and/or repair of the Vessel shall be
recoverable hereunder unless such cost would exceed the
insured value in the insurances on hull and machinery. In

sequence of damages arising from the same
accident shall be taken into account.
9.3 Provided that the
Constructive Total Loss Clause in the current Institute Time Clauses Hulls or a
clause having
a similar effect is contained in the insurances on hull
and machinery, the settlement of a claim for constructive total loss thereunder shall be accepted as proof of the
constructive total loss of the Vessel.
9.4 Should the Vessel be a constructive total loss but
the claim on the insurances on hull and machinery be settled
as a claim for partial loss, no payment shall be due under this
Clause 9.

ASSURED
This Policy insures* hereinafter
referred to as the Assured.
If claim is made
under this Policy by anyone other than the Owner of the Vessel, such person
shall not be entitled to
recover to a greater extent than would the Owner, had claim been
made by the Owner as an Assured named in this Policy.
Underwriters waive any right of subrogation against affiliated subsidiary
or interrelated companies of the Assured, provided that such waiver shall not
apply in the event of a collision between the Vessel and any vessel owned,
demise chartered or otherwise
controlled by any of the aforesaid companies, or with respect to any loss,
damage or expense against which such companies are insured.
LOSS
PAYEE
Loss, if any, payable to* or order.
Provided, however, Underwriters shall pay claims to others as set
forth in the Collision Liability clause and may make direct payment to persons
providing security for the release of the Vessel in Salvage cases.
VESSEL
The Subject Matter of this insurance is the
Vessel called the*or by whatsoever name or names the said Vessel is
or shall be called, which for purposes of this
insurance shall consist of and be limited to her hull, launches, lifeboats,
rafts, furniture, bunkers, stores,
supplies, tackle, fittings, equipment, apparatus, machinery, boilers,
refrigerating machinery, insulation, motor generators and
other electrical machinery.

In the event any equipment or apparatus not
owned by the Assured is installed for use on board the Vessel and the Assured has assumed responsibility therefor, it shall also be
considered part of the Subject Matter and the aggregate value thereof shall be
included in the Agreed Value.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, cargo
containers, barges and lighters shall not be considered a part of the Subject
Matter of this insurance.

contrary, there shall be deducted from the aggregate of all claims
(including claims under the Sue and Labor
clause and claims under the Collision Liability clause) arising out of each
separate accident, the sum of $ as specified in the policy, unless
the accident results in a Total Loss of the Vessel in which
case this clause shall not apply. A recovery
from other interests, however, shall not operate to exclude claims under this
Policy provided the aggregate of such claims
arising out of one separate accident if unreduced by such recovery exceeds
that sum. For the purpose of this clause each
accident shall be treated separately, but it is agreed that (a) a sequence of
damages arising from the same accident shall
be treated as due to that accident and (b); all heavy weather damage, or
damage caused by contact with floating ice, which occurs during a
single sea passage between two successive ports shall

similar craft used principally in harbors or inland waters. The
phrase “engage in loading or discharging cargo at sea” shall
include while approaching, leaving or alongside, or while another
vessel is approaching, leaving or alongside the Vessel.
The
Vessel is held covered in case of any breach of conditions as to cargo trade
locality, towage or salvage activities, or
date of sailing, or loading or discharging cargo at sea, provided (a) notice is
given to the Underwriters immediately following receipt of knowledge
thereof by the Assured, and (b) any amended terms of cover and any additional
premium required by the Underwriters are agreed to by the Assured.

public welfare to prevent or mitigate a pollution hazard, or threat there of,
resulting directly from damage
to the Vessel for which the Underwriters are liable under this Policy, provided
such act of governmental
authorities has not resulted from want of due diligence by the Assured, the
Owners, or Managers of the Vessel
or any of them to prevent or mitigate such hazard or threat. Masters, Officers,
Crew or Pilots are not to be considered Owners within the meaning of this
clause should they hold shares in the Vessel.
CLAIMS (GENERAL
PROVISIONS)
In the event of any accident or occurrence
which could give rise to a claim under this Policy, prompt notice thereof shall be given to the Underwriters, and;
(a) where practicable, the Underwriters shall be
advised prior to survey, so that they may appoint their own surveyor,
if they so desire;
(b) the Underwriters shall be entitled to decide
where the Vessel shall proceed for docking and/or repair (allowance to
be made to the
Assured for the actual additional expense of the voyage arising from compliance
with the
Underwriters’ requirement);
(c) the Underwriters shall
have the right of veto in connection with any repair firm proposed;
(d)
the Underwriters may take tenders, or may require in writing that
tenders be taken for the repair of the Vessel, in
which event, upon acceptance of a tender with the
approval of the Underwriters, an allowance shall be made at the
rate of 30
per cent. per annum on the amount insured, for each day or pro rata for part of
a day, for time lost between
the issuance of invitations to tender and the acceptance of a tender, to the
extent that such time is lost solely as the result of
tenders having been taken and provided the tender is accepted without delay
after receipt of the Underwriters’ approval.
Due credit shall be given against the allowances in (b) and (d)
above for any amount recovered:
(1) in
respect of fuel, stores, and wages and maintenance of the Master, Officers or
Crew allowed in General or
Particular Average;
(2) from third parties in
respect of damages for detention and/or loss of profit and/or running expenses;
for the period covered by the allowances or any part thereof.
No claim shall be allowed in Particular Average for wages
and maintenance of the Master, Officers or Crew, except
when incurred solely for the necessary removal of the Vessel from
one port to another for average repairs or for trial trips
to test average repairs, in which cases wages
and maintenance will be allowed only while the Vessel is under way. This
exclusion shall not apply to overtime or
similar extraordinary payments to the Master, Officers or Crew incurred in
shifting
the Vessel for tank cleaning or repairs or
while specifically engaged in these activities, either in port or at sea.
General and Particular Average shall be payable without deduction,
new for old.
The expense of sighting the bottom after
stranding shall be paid, if reasonably incurred especially for that purpose, even if no damage be found.
No claim shall in any case be allowed in respect of scraping or
painting the Vessel’s bottom.
In the event of loss or damage to equipment
or apparatus not owned by the Assured but installed for use on board the Vessel and for which the Assured has assumed
responsibility, claim shall not exceed (1) the amount the Underwriters would
pay if the Assured were owner of such equipment or apparatus, or (2) the
contractual responsibility assumed by the Assured to the owners or lessors thereof, whichever shall be
less.
No claim for unrepaired damages shall be allowed, except
to the extent that the aggregate damage caused by perils
insured against during the period of the Policy and left
unrepaired at the expiration of the Policy shall be demonstrated by
48
the Assured to have diminished the actual market value of the
Vessel on that date if undamaged by such perils.
GENERAL
AVERAGE AND SALVAGE
General Average and Salvage shall be payable as provided in the
contract of affreightment, or failing such provision or
there be no contract of affreightment, payable
at the Assured’s election either in accordance with York-Antwerp Rules
1950 or 1974 or with the Laws and Usages of the Port of New York.
Provided always that when an adjustment according
to the laws and usages of the port of destination is properly
demanded by the owners of the cargo, General Average shall
be paid accordingly.
In the event of salvage, towage or other assistance being
rendered to the Vessel by any vessel belonging in part or in
whole to the same Owners or Charterers, the
value of such services (without regard to the common ownership or control
of the vessels) shall be ascertained by
arbitration in the manner provided for under the Collision Liability clause in
this
Policy, and the amount so awarded so far as
applicable to the interest hereby insured shall constitute a charge under this
Policy.
When
the contributory value of the Vessel is greater than the Agreed Value herein,
the liability of the Underwriters for General
Average contribution (except in respect to amounts made good to the Vessel), or
Salvage, shall not exceed that proportion
of the total contribution due from the Vessel which the amount insured
hereunder bears to the contributory value,
and if, because of damage for which the Underwriters are liable as Particular
Average, the value of the Vessel has been
reduced for the purpose of contribution, the amount of such Particular Average
damage recoverable under this Policy shall first be deducted from the amount
insured hereunder, and the Underwriters shall then be liable only for the
proportion which such net amount bears to the contributory value.
TOTAL
LOSS
In ascertaining
whether the Vessel is a constructive Total Loss the Agreed Value shall be taken
as the repaired value
and nothing in respect of the damaged or break-up value of the
Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
There shall be no
recovery for a constructive Total Loss hereunder unless the expense of
recovering and repairing the Vessel would exceed the Agreed Value. In making
this determination, only expenses incurred or to be incurred by reason of a single accident or a sequence of damages
arising from the same accident shall be taken into account, but expenses
incurred prior to tender of abandonment shall not be considered if such are to
be claimed separately under the Sue and Labor clause.
In the
event of Total Loss (actual or constructive), no claim to be made by the
Underwriters for freight, whether notice of abandonment has been given or not.
In no case shall the Underwriters be liable for unrepaired
damage in addition to a subsequent Total Loss sustained during the period covered by this Policy.
SUE
AND LABOR
And in case of any Loss or Misfortune, it
shall be lawful and necessary for the Assured, their Factors, Servants and Assigns, to sue, labor and travel for, in,
and about the defense, safeguard and recovery of the Vessel, or any part
thereof, without prejudice to this insurance, to the charges where of the
Underwriters will contribute their proportion as provided below. And it is expressly declared and agreed that
no acts of the Underwriters or Assured in recovering, saving or preserving
the Vessel shall be considered as a waiver or acceptance of abandonment.
In the event of expenditure under the Sue and Labor
clause, the Underwriters shall pay the proportion of such expenses that the amount insured hereunder bears to
the Agreed Value, or that the amount insured hereunder (less loss and/or damage
payable under this Policy) bears to the
actual value of the salved property, whichever proportion shall be less;
provided always that their liability for such expenses shall not exceed
their proportionate part of the Agreed Value.
If claim for Total Loss is admitted under this Policy
and sue and labor expenses have been reasonably incurred in excess
of any proceeds realized or value recovered,
the amount payable under this Policy will be the proportion of such excess
that the amount insured hereunder (without deduction for loss or
damage) bears to the Agreed Value or to the sound value
of the Vessel at the time of the accident,
whichever value was greater; provided always that Underwriters’ liability for
such
expenses shall not exceed their proportionate
part of the Agreed Value. The foregoing shall also apply to expenses
reasonably incurred in salving or attempting
to salve the Vessel and other property to the extent that such expenses shall
49
be regarded as having been incurred in respect of the Vessel.
COLLISION LIABILITY
And it is further agreed that:
(a) if the Vessel shall
come into collision with any other ship or vessel, and the Assured or the
Surety in consequence
of the Vessel being
at fault shall become liable to pay and shall pay by way of damages to any
other person or
persons
any sum or sums in respect of such collision, the Underwriters will pay the
Assured or the Surety, whichever
shall have paid, such proportion of such sum or sums so paid as their
respective subscriptions hereto bear to the Agreed Value,
provided always that their liability in respect to any one such collision shall
not exceed their proportionate part of the
Agreed Value;
(b) in cases where,
with the consent in writing of a majority (in amount) of Hull Underwriters, the
liability of the
Vessel has been
contested, or proceedings have been taken to limit liability, the Underwriters
will also pay a like
proportion of the costs which the Assured shall thereby incur or
be compelled to pay.
When both vessels are to blame, then, unless
the liability of the owners or charterers of one or both such vessels becomes limited by law, claims under the Collision
Liability clause shall be settled on the principle of Cross-Liabilities as if
the owners or charterers of each vessel had been
compelled to pay to the owners or charterers of the other of such vessels such one-half or other proportion of the latter’s damages as may have
been properly allowed in ascertaining the balance or sum payable by or to the
Assured in consequence of such collision.
The principles involved in this clause shall apply to
the case where both vessels are the property, in part or in whole, of
the same owners or charterers, all questions of responsibility and
amount of liability as between the two vessels being left
to the decision of a single Arbitrator, if the
parties can agree upon a single Arbitrator, or failing such agreement, to the
decision of Arbitrators, one to be appointed
by the Assured and one to be appointed by the majority (in amount) of Hull
Underwriters interested; the two Arbitrators
chosen to choose a third Arbitrator before entering upon the reference, and the
decision of such single Arbitrator, or of
any two of such three Arbitrators, appointed as above, to be final and binding.
Provided always that this clause shall in no case extend
to any sum which the Assured or the Surety may become liable to pay or shall
pay in consequence of, or with respect to:
(a) removal or disposal of
obstructions, wrecks or their cargoes under statutory powers or otherwise
pursuant to law;
(b)
injury to real or personal property of every description;
(c) the discharge,
spillage, emission or leakage of oil, petroleum products, chemicals or other
substances of any kind
or description
whatsoever;
(d) cargo or other property
on or the engagements of the Vessel;
(e) loss of life, personal
injury or illness.
Provided further that exclusions (b) and (c) above shall not apply
to injury to other vessels or property thereon except to the extent that such
injury arises out of any action taken to avoid, minimize or remove any
discharge, spillage, emission or leakage described in (c) above.
PILOTAGE
AND TOWAGE
This insurance shall not be prejudiced by reason of any contract
limiting in whole or in part the liability of pilots, tugs, towboats, or their owners when the Assured or the
agent of the Assured accepts such contract in accordance with established
local practice.
Where in accordance with such practice, pilotage or
towage services are provided under contracts requiring the Assured or the agent
of the Assured:
(a) to assume
liability for damage resulting from collision of the Vessel insured with any
other ship or vessel, including
the towing vessel, or
(b) to indemnify those
providing the pilotage or towage services against loss or liability for any
such damages,
it is agreed that amounts paid by the Assured or Surety
pursuant to such assumed obligations shall be deemed payments
“by way of damages to any other person or persons” and to have
been paid “in consequence of the Vessel being at fault”
within the meaning of the Collision Liability
clause in this Policy to the extent that such payments would have been covered
if the Vessel had been legally responsible in
the absence of any agreement. Provided always that in no event shall the
aggregate amount of liability of the
Underwriters under the Collision Liability clause, including this clause, be
greater than
50
the amount of any statutory limitation of liability to
which owners are entitled or would be entitled if liability under any
contractual obligation referred to in this clause were included
among the liabilities subject to such statutory limitations.
CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP
In the event of any change, voluntary or
otherwise, in the ownership or flag of the Vessel, or if the Vessel be placed under new management, or be chartered on a bareboat basis or
requisitioned on that basis, or if the Classification Society of the Vessel or her class therein be changed,
cancelled or withdrawn, then, unless the Underwriters agree thereto in writing,
this Policy shall automatically
terminate at the time of such change of ownership, flag, management, charter,
requisition or classification; provided, however, that:
(a) if the
Vessel has cargo on board and has already sailed from her loading port, or is
at sea in ballast, such automatic
termination shall, if required, be deferred until
arrival at final port of discharge if with cargo, or at port of
destination if in ballast;
(b) in
the event of an involuntary temporary transfer by requisition or otherwise,
without the prior execution of a
written agreement by
the Assured, such automatic termination shall occur fifteen days after such
transfer.
This insurance shall not inure to the benefit of any transferee or
charterer of the Vessel and, if a loss payable hereunder
should occur between the time of change or
transfer and any deferred automatic termination, the Underwriters shall be
subrogated to all of the rights of the
Assured against the transferee or charterer in respect of all or part of such
loss as is
recoverable from the transferee or
charterer, and in the proportion which the amount insured hereunder bears to
the Agreed
Value.
The term “new management” as used above refers only to the
transfer of the management of the Vessel from one firm or corporation to
another, and it shall not apply to any internal changes within the offices of
the Assured.
ADDITIONAL INSURANCES
It is a condition of this Policy that no additional insurance
against the risk of Total Loss of the Vessel shall be effected
to operate during the currency of this
Policy by or for account of the Assured, Owners, Managers, Operators or
Mortgagees
except on the interests and up to the amounts
enumerated in the following Sections (a) to (g), inclusive, and no such
insurance shall be subject to P.P.I., F.I.A.
or other like term on any interests whatever excepting those enumerated in
Section
(a);
provided always and notwithstanding the limitation on recovery in the Assured
clause a breach of this condition shall
not afford the Underwriters any defense to a
claim by a Mortgagee who has accepted this Policy without knowledge of
such breach:
(a) DISBURSEMENTS, MANAGERS’ COMMISSIONS, PROFITS OR EXCESS OR INCREASED
VALUE OF
HULL AND MACHINERY, AND/OR SIMILAR INTERESTS HOWEVER
DESCRIBED, AND FREIGHT (INCLUDING
CHARTERED FREIGHT OR ANTICIPATED FREIGHT) INSURED FOR TIME. An amount not
exceeding in the aggregate 25% of the Agreed Value.
(b) FREIGHT OR HIRE, UNDER CONTRACTS FOR VOYAGE. An amount not exceeding
the gross freight or hire
for the current cargo passage and next succeeding cargo
passage (such insurance to include, if required, a preliminary and an intermediate ballast passage) plus the
charges of insurance. In the case of a voyage charter where payment is made on a time basis, the amount shall
be calculated on the estimated duration of the voyage, subject to the limitation of two cargo passages as laid
down herein. Any amount permitted under this Section shall be reduced, as the freight or hire is earned, by the gross amount
so earned. Any freight or hire to be earned under the form of Charters described in (d) below shall not be permitted under
this Section (b) if any part thereof is insured as permitted under said
Section (d).
(c) ANTICIPATED FREIGHT IF THE VESSEL SAILS IN BALLAST AND NOT UNDER
CHARTER. An amount
not
exceeding the anticipated gross freight on next cargo passage, such amount to
be reasonably estimated on the basis of the current rate of freight at time of
insurance, plus the charges of insurance. Provided, however, that no insurance
shall be permitted by this Section if any insurance is effected as permitted
under Section (b).
(d) TIME CHARTER HIRE OR
CHARTER HIRE FOR SERIES OF VOYAGES. An amount not exceeding 50% of
the
gross hire which is to be earned under the charter in a period not exceeding 18
months. Any amount permitted
under this Section shall be reduced as the
hire is earned under the charter by 50% of the gross amount so earned
but, where the charter is for a period
exceeding 18 months, the amount insured need not be reduced while it does
51
not
exceed 50% of the gross hire still to be earned under the charter. An insurance
permitted by this Section may begin on the signing of the charter.
(e) PREMIUMS. An amount not exceeding the actual
premiums of all interest insured for a period not exceeding 12
months (excluding
premiums insured as permitted under the foregoing Sections but including, if
required, the
premium
or estimated calls on any Protection and Indemnity or War Risks and Strikes
insurance) reducing pro rata
monthly.
(f) RETURNS OF
PREMIUM. An amount not exceeding the actual returns which are recoverable
subject to “and
arrival” or
equivalent provision under any policy of insurance.
(g) INSURANCE IRRESPECTIVE

American Institute War Risks and Strikes Clauses; and General Average
and Salvage Disbursements.
WAR
STRIKES AND RELATED EXCLUSIONS
The
following conditions shall be paramount and shall supersede and nullify any
contrary provisions of the Policy.
This Policy does not cover any loss, damage or expense caused by,
resulting from, or incurred as a consequence of:
(a) Capture, seizure,
arrest, restraint or detainment, or any attempt thereat; or
(b) Any taking of the Vessel, by requisition or otherwise, whether in time of
peace or war and whether lawful or
otherwise; or
(c) Any mine, bomb or
torpedo not carried as cargo on board the Vessel; or
(d) Any weapon of war employing atomic or nuclear fission and/or fusion or
other like reaction or radioactive force

(h) Hostilities or warlike operations (whether there be a declaration of war
or not) but this subparagraph (h) not to
exclude collision or contact with aircraft, rockets or
similar missiles, or with any fixed or floating object, or stranding, heavy weather, fire or explosion
unless caused directly by a hostile act by or against a belligerent power which act is independent of the nature of the
voyage or service which the Vessel concerned or, in the case of a collision, any other vessel involved therein,
is performing. As used herein, “power” includes any authority maintaining, naval, military or air forces in association with a
power.
If war risks or other risks excluded by this clause are
hereafter insured by endorsement on this Policy, such endorsement shall supersede the above conditions only to the extent that the
terms of such endorsement are inconsistent therewith and only while such
endorsement remains in force.

Premium returnable as follows:
Pro rata daily net in the event of termination under the Change of
Ownership clause;
Pro rata monthly net for each uncommenced month if it be mutually
agreed to cancel this Policy;
For each period of 30 consecutive days the Vessel may be laid up

return due in respect of a full period of 30 days as the number of days attaching hereto bears to 30. Should the
lay-up period exceed 30 consecutive days, the Assured shall have the option to elect the period of 30 consecutive days for which a return is
recoverable.
NON-PAYMENT

Policy. Such proportion of the premium, however, as shall have been earned up
to the time of cancellation shall be payable. In the event of Total Loss of the
Vessel occurring prior to any cancellation or termination of this Policy full
annual premium shall be considered earned.
ADVENTURE
Beginning the adventure upon the Vessel, as
above, and so shall continue and endure during the period aforesaid, as
employment may offer, in port or at sea, in docks and graving
docks, and on ways, gridirons and pontoons, at all times, in
all places, and on all occasions, services and trades; with leave
to sail or navigate with or without pilots to go on trial trips
and to assist and tow vessels or craft in distress, but the Vessel
may not be towed, except as is customary or when in need
of assistance, nor shall the Vessel render
assistance or undertake towage or salvage services under contract previously
arranged by the Assured, the Owners, the Managers or the
Charterers of the Vessel, nor shall the Vessel, in the course of
trading operations, engage in loading or discharging cargo at sea,
from or into another vessel other than a barge, lighter or
similar craft used principally in harbors or inland waters. The
phrase “engage in loading or discharging cargo at sea” shall
include white approaching, leaving or alongside, or while another
vessel is approaching, leaving or alongside the Vessel.
The
Vessel is held covered in case of any breach of conditions as to cargo, trade,
locality, towage or salvage activities, date
of sailing or loading or discharging cargo at sea, provided (a) notice is given
to the Underwriters immediately following receipt of knowledge thereof
by the Assured, and (b) any amended terms of cover and any additional premium
required by the Underwriters are agreed to by the Assured.
COVERAGE
This insurance covers only;
(1) TOTAL LOSS (ACTUAL OR CONSTRUCTIVE) OF THE
VESSEL directly caused by Perils of the Seas,
Men-of-War, Fire, Lightning, Earthquake, Enemies, Pirates, Rovers, Assailing
Thieves, Jettisons, Letters of Mart and Counter-Mart,
Surprisals, Takings at Sea, Arrests, Restraints and Detainments of all Kings,
Princes and Peoples, of what nation,
condition or quality soever, Barratry of the Master and Mariners and of all
other like Perils, Losses and Misfortunes that have or shall come to the
Hurt, Detriment or Damage of the Vessel, or any part thereof, excepting,
however, such of the foregoing perils as may
be excluded by provisions elsewhere in the Policy or by endorsement thereon. It
shall also cover Total Loss (actual or constructive) directly caused by
the following:-
Accidents in loading, discharging or handling cargo, or in
bunkering;
Accidents
in going on or off, or while on drydocks, graving docks, ways, gridirons or
pontoons; Explosions on shipboard or elsewhere;
Breakdown of motor generators or other electrical
machinery and electrical connections thereto, bursting of boilers, breakage of shafts, or any latent defect in
the machinery or hull, (excluding the cost and expense of replacing or
repairing the defective part);
Breakdown
of or accidents to nuclear installations or reactors not on board the insured
Vessel; Contact with aircraft, rockets or similar missiles, or with any land
conveyance;
Negligence
of Charterers and/or Repairers, provided such Charterers and/or Repairers are
not an Assured hereunder; Negligence of Masters, Officers, Crew or Pilots;
provided such loss or damage has not resulted from want of due
diligence by the Assured, the Owners or Managers of the
54
Vessel,
or any of them. Masters, Officers, Crew or Pilots are not to be considered
Owners within the meaning of this clause should they hold shares in the Vessel.
Subject to the conditions of this Policy, this insurance
also covers Total Loss (actual or constructive) of the Vessel
directly caused by governmental authorities
acting for the public welfare to prevent or mitigate a pollution hazard, or
threat thereof, resulting directly from damage
to the Vessel for which the Underwriters are liable under this Policy,
provided such act of governmental authorities has not resulted
from want of due diligence by the Assured, the Owners,
or Managers of the Vessel or any of them to prevent or mitigate
such hazard or threat. Masters, Officers, Crew or Pilots
are not to be considered Owners within the meaning of this clause
should they hold shares in the Vessel.
In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive
Total Loss the Agreed Value in the policies on Hull and Machinery shall be taken as the repaired value and
nothing in respect of the damaged or break-up value of the Vessel or wreck
shall be taken into account.
There
shall be no recovery for a constructive Total Loss hereunder unless the expense
of recovering and repairing the Vessel would exceed the Agreed Value in
policies on Hull and Machinery. In making this determination, only expenses
incurred or to be incurred by reason of a single accident or a sequence of
damages arising from the same accident shall be
taken into account, but expenses incurred prior to tender of abandonment shall
not be considered if such are to be claimed separately under the Sue and
Labor clause in said policies.
Provided that the policies on Hull and Machinery contain
the above clauses with respect to the method of ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive Total
Loss (or clauses having a similar effect), the settlement of a claim for Total Loss under the policies on Hull and Machinery
shall be accepted as proof of the Total Loss of the Vessel under this Policy; and in the event of a claim for Total
Loss being settled under the policies on Hull and Machinery as a compromised total loss, the amount payable hereunder shall be the
same percentage of the amount hereby insured as the percentage paid on the

the Vessel adopted for the purpose of ascertaining the amount
recoverable under the policies on Hull and Machinery, the

amount not recoverable as the amount insured hereunder bears
to the said difference or to the total amount insured against
excess liabilities if it exceed such difference.
(4) COLLISION LIABRLIITY (including Costs) not recoverable in full under the
Collision Liability clause
(including the Pilotage and Towage
extension) in the policies on Hull and Machinery by reason of such liability
exceeding
the Agreed Value of the Vessel as stated
therein, in which case the amount recoverable under this Policy shall be such
proportion of the difference so arising as the
amount hereby insured bears to the total amount insured against excess
liabilities.
Underwriters’ liability under (1),(2),(3) and (4) is
separate and shall not exceed the amount insured hereunder in any one section in respect of any one claim.

loss as is
recoverable from the transferee or
charterer, and in the proportion which the amount insured hereunder bears to

event of a subsequent total loss (whether
101
or not
covered under this insurance) sustained during the period covered by this
insurance or any extension
thereof.
11.3 The Underwriters shall not be liable in
respect of unrepaired damage for more than the insured value at the time
this insurance

whether the subject-matter insured is a constructive total loss, the insured
value shall be taken as
the repaired value
and nothing in respect of the damaged or break-up value shall be taken into
account.
12.2 No claim for constructive total loss based
upon the cost of recovery and/or repair shall be recoverable hereunder
unless such cost
would exceed the insured value. In making this determination, only the cost
relating to a single
accident or sequence of damages arising from the same accident
shall be taken into account.
13
GENERAL AVERAGE AND SALVAGE
13.1
This insurance covers the Vessel’s proportion of salvage, salvage
charges and/or general average, reduced in

respect of the whole loss without first enforcing their right of
contribution from other parties.

Adjustment to be according to the law and practice obtaining at the
place where the adventure ends, as if the
contract of affreightment contained no special
terms upon the subject; but where the contract of affreightment
so provides the adjustment shall be according to the York-Antwerp
Rules.
13.3 When the Vessel sails
in ballast, not under charter, the provisions of the York-Antwerp Rules, 1974
(excluding
Rules XX and XXI)
shall be applicable, and the voyage for this purpose shall be deemed to
continue from the
port or
place of departure until the arrival of the Vessel at the first port or place
thereafter other than a port or
place of refuge or a port or place of call for bunkering only. If
at any such intermediate port or place there is an
abandonment of the adventure originally contemplated the voyage
shall thereupon be deemed to be terminated.
13.4 No claim
under this Clause 13 shall in any case be allowed where the loss was not
incurred to avoid or in
connection with
the avoidance of a peril insured against.
14
NOTICE OF CLAIM
In the event of loss damage liability or expense which
may result in a claim under this insurance, prompt notice shall be given to the Underwriters prior to repair
and, if the subject-matter is under construction abroad, to the nearest Lloyd’s
Agent*3 so that a surveyor may be appointed to represent the
Underwriters should they so desire.
15 CHANGE OF INTEREST
Any change of interest in the subject-matter insured shall not
affect the validity of this insurance.
16
ASSIGNMENT

moneys which may be or become payable thereunder is to be binding on or recognised by the Underwriters
unless a dated notice of such assignment or interest signed by the Assured, and by the assignor in the case of subsequent
assignment, is endorsed on the Policy and the Policy with such endorsement is produced before payment of any claim or return of
premium thereunder.

17.1.1 loss of or damage
to any other vessel or property on any other vessel
17.1.2 delay to or loss
of use of any such other vessel or property thereon

shall be in addition to the indemnity provided by the other terms and
conditions of this
insurance and shall be subject to the following provisions:
17.2.1 Where the insured Vessel is in collision with
another vessel and both vessels are to blame then, unless the
liability of one or both vessels becomes limited by law,
the indemnity under this Clause 17 shall be calculated
on the principle of cross-liabilities as if the respective Owners
had been compelled to pay to each other such
proportion of each other’s damages as may have been properly
allowed in ascertaining the balance or sum
102
payable by or to the Assured in consequence of the collision.
17.2.2 In no case shall the Underwriters’ total liability
under Clause 17.1 and 17.2 exceed their proportionate part
of the insured value of the Vessel hereby insured in respect of
any one such collision.
17.3 The Underwriters will
also pay the legal costs incurred by the Assured or which the Assured may be
compelled
to pay in
contesting liability or taking proceedings to limit liability, with the prior
written consent of the
Underwriters.

or receive salvage services from another vessel belonging wholly or in part to the same Owners or
under the same management, the Assured shall have the same rights under this insurance as they would have were the other vessel entirely the
property of Owners not interested in the Vessel hereby insured; but in such
cases the liability for the collision or the amount payable for the services
rendered shall be referred to a sole
arbitrator to be agreed upon between the Underwriters and the Assured.

agree to indemnify the Assured for any sum or sums paid by the Assured to any

caused by any governmental authority acting under the powers
vested in it to prevent or mitigate a pollution hazard, or threat
thereof, resulting directly from damage to the Vessel for
which the Underwriters are liable under this

9.2 Any movement of the Vessel in tow outside the port
or place of construction held covered at a premium to be

10
DEDUCTIBLE
10.1 No claim arising from a peril insured against shall
be payable under this insurance unless the aggregate of all
such
claims arising out of each separate accident or occurrence (including claims
under Clauses 13, 17, 19 and
20) exceeds the amount specified in the
Policy in which case this sum shall be deducted. Nevertheless the
expense of sighting the bottom after
stranding, if reasonably incurred specially for that purpose, shall be paid
even if no damage be found. This Clause 10.1 shall not apply to a
claim for total or constructive total loss of the
Vessel or, in the event of such a claim, to any associated claim
under Clause 20 arising from the same accident
or occurrence.
10.2 Claims for damage by
heavy weather occurring during a single sea passage between two successive
ports shall
be treated as being due to one accident. In the case of
such heavy weather extending over a period not wholly covered
by this insurance the deductible to be applied to the claim recoverable
hereunder shall be the proportion of the
above deductible that the number of days of such heavy weather falling within
the period of this insurance bears to the number of days of heavy
weather during the single sea passage. The expression “heavy weather” in this
Clause 10.2 shall be deemed to include contact with floating ice.
10.3 Excluding any
interest comprised therein, recoveries against any claim which is subject to
the above deductible
shall be credited to the Underwriters in full to the
extent of the sum by which the aggregate of the claim unreduced
by any recoveries exceeds the above deductible.
10.4 Interest comprised in recoveries shall be
apportioned between the Assured and the Underwriters, taking into
account
the sums paid by the Underwriters and the dates when such payments were made,
notwithstanding that by the addition of interest the Underwriters may receive a
larger sum than they have paid.
11 UNREPAIRED DAMAGE
11.1 The measure of
indemnity in respect of claims for unrepaired damage shall be the reasonable
depreciation in the
market value of
the Vessel at the time this insurance terminates arising from such unrepaired
damage, but not
exceeding the reasonable cost of repairs.
11.2
In no case shall the Underwriters be liable for unrepaired damage in the
event of a subsequent total loss (whether
108
or not
covered under this insurance) sustained during the period covered by this
insurance or any extension
thereof.
11.3 The Underwriters shall not be liable in
respect of unrepaired damage for more than the insured value at the time
this insurance
terminates.
12 CONSTRUCTIVE TOTAL
LOSS
12.1 In ascertaining
whether the subject-matter insured is a constructive total loss, the insured
value shall be taken as
the repaired
value and nothing in respect of the damaged or break-up value shall be taken
into account.
12.2 No claim for constructive total loss based
upon the cost of recovery and/or repair shall be recoverable hereunder
unless such
cost would exceed the insured value. In making this determination, only the
cost relating to a single
accident or sequence of damages arising from the same accident
shall be taken into account.
13
GENERAL AVERAGE AND SALVAGE
13.1
This insurance covers the Vessel’s proportion of salvage, salvage
charges and/or general average, reduced in
respect of any under-insurance, but in case of
general average sacrifice of the Vessel the Assured may recover in
respect of the whole loss without first enforcing their right of
contribution from other parties.
13.2
Adjustment to be according to the law and practice obtaining at the
place where the adventure ends, as if the
contract of affreightment contained no special
terms upon the subject; but where the contract of affreightment
so provides the adjustment shall be according to the York-Antwerp
Rules.
13.3 When the Vessel sails
in ballast, not under charter, the provisions of the York-Antwerp Rules, 1974
(excluding
Rules XX and XXI)
shall be applicable, and the voyage for this purpose shall be deemed to
continue from the
port or
place of departure until the arrival of the Vessel at the first port or place
thereafter other than a port or
place of refuge or a port or place of call for bunkering only. If
at any such intermediate port or place there is an
abandonment of the adventure originally contemplated the voyage
shall thereupon be deemed to be terminated.
13.4 No claim
under this Clause 13 shall in any case be allowed where the loss was not
incurred to avoid or in
connection with
the avoidance of a peril insured against.
14
NOTICE OF CLAIM
In the event of loss damage liability or expense which
may result in a claim under this insurance, prompt notice shall be given to the Underwriters prior to repair
and, if the subject-matter is under construction abroad, to the nearest Lloyd’s
Agent*3 so that a surveyor may be appointed to represent the
Underwriters should they so desire.
15 CHANGE OF INTEREST
Any change of interest in the subject-matter insured shall not
affect the validity of this insurance.
16
ASSIGNMENT
No assignment of or interest in this insurance or in any
moneys which may be or become payable thereunder is to be binding on or recognised by the Underwriters
unless a dated notice of such assignment or interest signed by the Assured, and by the assignor in the case of subsequent
assignment, is endorsed on the Policy and the Policy with such endorsement is produced before payment of any claim or return of
premium thereunder.
17
COLLISION LIABILITY

to any other vessel or property on any other vessel
17.1.2 delay to or loss
of use of any such other vessel or property thereon

shall be in addition to the indemnity provided by the other terms and
conditions of this
insurance and shall be subject to the following provisions:
17.2.1 Where the insured Vessel is in collision with
another vessel and both vessels are to blame then, unless the
liability of one or both vessels becomes limited by law,
the indemnity under this Clause 17 shall be calculated
on the principle of cross-liabilities as if the respective Owners
had been compelled to pay to each other such
proportion of each other’s damages as may have been properly
allowed in ascertaining the balance or sum
109
payable by or to the Assured in consequence of the collision.
17.2.2 In no case shall the Underwriters’ total liability
under Clause 17.1 and 17.2 exceed their proportionate part
of the insured value of the Vessel hereby insured in respect of
any one such collision.
17.3 The Underwriters will
also pay the legal costs incurred by the Assured or which the Assured may be
compelled
to pay in
contesting liability or taking proceedings to limit liability, with the prior
written consent of the
Underwriters.

18
SISTERSHIP
Should the Vessel hereby insured come into collision with
or receive salvage services from another vessel belonging wholly or in part to the same Owners or
under the same management, the Assured shall have the same rights under this insurance as they would have were the other vessel entirely the
property of Owners not interested in the Vessel hereby insured; but in such
cases the liability for the collision or the amount payable for the services
rendered shall be referred to a sole
arbitrator to be agreed upon between the Underwriters and the Assured.
19 PROTECTION AND
INDEMNITY
19.1 The Underwriters
agree to indemnify the Assured for any sum or sums paid by the Assured to any
other person
or persons by
reason of the Assured becoming legally liable, as Owner of the Vessel, for any

of the expenses, or of the expenses in excess of the proceeds, as the case may
be, as may reasonably be regarded as having been incurred in respect of the
subject-matter insured.
20.5 The sum
recoverable under this Clause 20 shall be in addition to the loss otherwise
recoverable under this
insurance but
shall in no circumstances exceed the amount insured under this insurance in
respect of the Vessel.
The following clauses

inconsistent
therewith.

DEDUCTIBLE
10.1 No claim arising from a peril insured against shall
be payable under this insurance unless the aggregate of all
such
claims arising out of each separate accident or occurrence (including claims
under Clauses 13, 17, 19 and
20) exceeds the amount specified in the
Policy in which case this sum shall be
deducted. Nevertheless the
expense of sighting the bottom after

claim for total or constructive total loss of the
Vessel or, in the event of such a claim, to any associated claim
under Clause 20 arising from the same accident
or occurrence.
10.2 Claims for damage by
heavy weather occurring during a single sea passage between two successive
ports shall
be treated as being due to one accident. In the case of
such heavy weather extending over a period not wholly covered

hereunder shall be the proportion of the
above deductible that the number of days of such heavy weather falling within
the period of this insurance bears to the number of days of heavy
weather during the single sea passage. The expression “heavy weather” in this
Clause 10.2 shall be deemed to include contact with floating ice.
10.3 Excluding any
interest comprised therein, recoveries against any claim which is subject to

apportioned between the Assured and the Underwriters, taking into
account
the sums paid by the Underwriters and the dates when such payments were made,
notwithstanding that by the addition of interest the Underwriters may receive a
larger sum than they have paid.
11 UNREPAIRED DAMAGE
11.1 The measure of
indemnity in respect of claims for unrepaired damage shall be the reasonable
depreciation in the
market value of
the Vessel at the time this insurance terminates arising from such unrepaired
damage, but not
exceeding the reasonable cost of repairs.
11.2
In no case shall the Underwriters be liable for unrepaired damage in the
event of a subsequent total loss (whether
115
or not
covered under this insurance) sustained during the period covered by this
insurance or any extension
thereof.
11.3 The Underwriters shall not be liable in
respect of unrepaired damage for more than the insured value at the time
this insurance
terminates.
12 CONSTRUCTIVE TOTAL
LOSS
12.1 In ascertaining
whether the subject-matter insured is a constructive total loss, the insured
value shall be taken as
the repaired
value and nothing in respect of the damaged or break-up value shall be taken
into account.
12.2 No claim for constructive total loss based
upon the cost of recovery and/or repair shall be recoverable hereunder
unless such
cost would exceed the insured value. In making this determination, only the
cost relating to a single
accident or sequence of damages arising from the same accident
shall be taken into account.
13
GENERAL AVERAGE AND SALVAGE
13.1
This insurance covers the Vessel’s proportion of salvage, salvage
charges and/or general average, reduced in
respect of any under-insurance, but in case of
general average sacrifice of the Vessel the Assured may recover in
respect of the whole loss without first enforcing their right of
contribution from other parties.
13.2
Adjustment to be according to the law and practice obtaining at the
place where the adventure ends, as if the
contract of affreightment contained no special
terms upon the subject; but where the contract of affreightment
so provides the adjustment shall be according to the York-Antwerp
Rules.
13.3 When the Vessel sails
in ballast, not under charter, the provisions of the York-Antwerp Rules, 1974
(excluding
Rules XX and XXI)
shall be applicable, and the voyage for this purpose shall be deemed to
continue from the
port or
place of departure until the arrival of the Vessel at the first port or place
thereafter other than a port or
place of refuge or a port or place of call for bunkering only. If
at any such intermediate port or place there is an
abandonment of the adventure originally contemplated the voyage
shall thereupon be deemed to be terminated.
13.4 No claim
under this Clause 13 shall in any case be allowed where the loss was not
incurred to avoid or in
connection with
the avoidance of a peril insured against.
14
NOTICE OF CLAIM
In the event of loss damage liability or expense which
may result in a claim under this insurance, prompt notice shall be given to the Underwriters prior to repair
and, if the subject-matter is under construction abroad, to the nearest Lloyd’s
Agent*3 so that a surveyor may be appointed to represent the
Underwriters should they so desire.
15 CHANGE OF INTEREST
Any change of interest in the subject-matter insured shall not
affect the validity of this insurance.
16
ASSIGNMENT

moneys which may be or become payable thereunder is to be binding on or recognised by the Underwriters
unless a dated notice of such assignment or interest signed by the Assured, and by the assignor in the case of subsequent
assignment, is endorsed on the Policy and the Policy with such endorsement is produced before payment of any claim or return of
premium thereunder.

another vessel and both vessels are to blame then, unless the
liability of one or both vessels becomes limited by law,
the indemnity under this Clause 17 shall be calculated
on the principle of cross-liabilities as if the respective Owners
had been compelled to pay to each other such
proportion of each other’s damages as may have been properly
allowed in ascertaining the balance or sum
116
payable by or to the Assured in consequence of the collision.
17.2.2 In no case shall the Underwriters’ total liability
under Clause 17.1 and 17.2 exceed their proportionate part
of the insured value of the Vessel hereby insured in respect of
any one such collision.

under the same management, the Assured shall have the same rights under this insurance as they would have were the other vessel entirely the
property of Owners not interested in the Vessel hereby insured; but in such
cases the liability for the collision or the amount payable for the services
rendered shall be referred to a sole
arbitrator to be agreed upon between the Underwriters and the Assured.

JHC COMMUNICABLE DISEASE EXCLUSION
1. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this
(re)insurance, it is hereby agreed that this (re)insurance excludes
absolutely all
Communicable Disease Loss, save where the conditions of the Infected Individual
Exception are met.
2.1 “Communicable Disease Loss” shall mean all loss,
damage, liability, or expense of whatsoever nature, proximately
caused by or
significantly caused by or contributed to by or resulting from or arising out
of or in connection with any
of the Excluded Circumstances, those Circumstances being
a) a
Communicable Disease, and/or
b) the
fear or threat, whether actual or perceived, of a Communicable Disease, and/or
c) any recommendation,
decision or measure, made or taken to restrict, prevent, reduce or slow the
spread of infection
of a Communicable
Disease or to remove or minimise legal liability in respect of such a disease,
whether made or
taken by a public authority or a private entity and/or
d) any
recommendation, decision or measure made or taken to alter, reverse or remove
any circumstance falling
within (c) above,
whether made or taken by a public authority or a private entity
regardless of any other cause or circumstance contributing
concurrently or in any other sequence thereto.
2.2 Without prejudice to the effect of Clauses
2.1 (a), (b) and (d), recommendations, decisions and measures by
whomsoever taken to tie-up, lay-up or maintain at anchor, in port or
elsewhere, any vessel, conveyance, rig or platform
pending
resumption of cruising, operation, trading, cargo loading or discharge or other
customary use shall not
constitute Excluded Circumstances,
notwithstanding they or any of them may have been taken for the reasons set out
in 2.1 (c) above.
2.3 Without prejudice to the effect of Clauses 2.1 (a),
(b) and (d) for the purposes of a loss event first affecting a vessel,
conveyance, rig or platform during a voyage undertaken as a consequence
of a diversion, a prior recommendation,
decision
or measure by whomsoever taken to divert that vessel from an earlier loading or
discharge or other destination shall not constitute an
Excluded Circumstance solely by reason of that diversion having been made for
the reasons set out in 2.1 (c) above.
2.4
Without prejudice to the effect of Clauses 2.1 (a), (b) and (d), where loss,
damage or liability have first been incurred
in circumstances which are not excluded under 2.1 (a) to (d) above,
increased expense or increased liability for expense
shall not be excluded notwithstanding that increase may have been
incurred for the reasons set out in 2.1(c) above.
3. “Communicable Disease” shall mean any
disease, known or unknown, which can be transmitted by means of any
substance or agent from
one organism to another where:
a) the substance or agent includes but is not
limited to a virus, bacterium, parasite or other organism or any variation
143
or mutation of any of the foregoing, whether deemed living or not,
and
b) the method of transmission, whether direct or
indirect, includes but is not limited to human touch or contact,
airborne transmission, bodily fluid transmission,
transmission to or from or via any solid object or surface or liquid
or gas and
c) the disease,
substance or agent may, acting alone or in conjunction with other
co-morbidities, conditions, genetic
susceptibilities, or with the human immune system, cause
death, illness or bodily harm or temporarily or
permanently impair human physical or mental
health or adversely affect the value of or safe use of property of any
kind.
4.1 The Infected Individual Exception shall apply where
(1) the actions or decisions of any individual infected or allegedly
infected with a Communicable Disease cause or contribute to an alleged
loss event and (2) neither such action nor
decision nor the alleged cause
of the loss event itself was a recommendation, decision or measure as defined
in 2.1 (c) or 2.1 (d) above.
4.2 Where those conditions are met, the fact or
possibility that the individual’s action(s) or decision(s) were impaired or
affected by or caused by that individual’s alleged or actual infection
shall not exclude recovery of a Loss otherwise
recoverable hereon provided
always that there shall be no cover for loss, damage, liability, or expense
arising from any increase in the spread,
incidence, severity or recurrence of a Communicable Disease or from any
Circumstance as defined in Clause 2.1
(c) or (d) consequent on that
individual’s actions or decisions.
4.3
For the purposes of this Exception, the Infected Individual need not be
physically present on or in an interest affected
by the loss event,
provided that his or her actions or decisions causing or contributing to the
loss event and affecting
that interest, directly or
indirectly, were of a kind which, when not impaired or affected, would fall
within the ordinary course of his or her employment.
5. Loss, damage, liability and expense arising
solely out of a loss event otherwise reinsured under this (re)insurance and
not excluded thereby
nor excluded pursuant to this Clause remain covered in accordance with the
terms and conditions
thereof.
