and

5.1.2  terminates, subject to 5.2 and 5.3 below, either as the subject-matter insured and as to any part as that

whichever shall first occur;
nevertheless,

subject to prompt notice to the Insurers and to an additional premium, such insurance

5.1.3  reattaches when, without having discharged the subject-matter insured at the final port or place of
         discharge, the vessel sails therefrom,

and

5.1.4  terminates, subject to 5.2 and 5.3 below, either as the subject-matter insured and as to any part as that
         part is thereafter discharged from the vessel at the final (or substituted) port or place of discharge,

or

DURATION

4.  Transit Clause

4.1    This insurance

4.1.1  attaches only as the subject-matter insured and as to any part as that part is loaded on the aircraft for
         the commencement of the air transit insured

and

4.1.2  terminates, subject to 4.2 and 4.3 below, either as the subject-matter insured and as to any part as that
         part is discharged from the aircraft at the final place of discharge

or

on expiry of 15 days counting from midnight of the day of arrival of the aircraft at the final place of
discharge,

whichever shall first occur;
nevertheless,

subject to prompt notice to the Insurers and to an additional premium, such insurance

4.1.3  reattaches  when,  without  having  discharged  the  subject-matter  insured  at  the  final  place  of
         discharge, the aircraft departs therefrom, and

4.1.4 terminates, subject to 4.2 and 4.3 below, either as the subject-matter insured and as to any part as that
         part  is  thereafter  discharged  from  the  aircraft  at  the  final  (or  substituted)  place  of discharge,

or

on expiry of 15 days counting from midnight of the day of re-arrival of the aircraft at the final place of discharge or arrival of the aircraft at a substituted place of discharge,

whichever shall first occur.

4.2    If during the insured transit the aircraft arrives at an intermediate place to discharge the subject- matter

4.2.1  where the on-carriage is by aircraft this insurance continues subject to the terms of these Clauses,
or

4.2.2  where the on-carriage is by oversea vessel, the current Institute War Clauses (Cargo) shall be deemed
         to form part of the contract of insurance and shall apply to the on-carriage by sea.
