contract of carriage by sea contained in this Bill of Lading, and the Carrier is to be entitled to the
benefit of all privileges, rights aud immunities contained in such Act and the Schedule thereto
as if the same were herein specifically set out. If anything herein contained be inconsistent with
the said Act, it shall, to the extent and on the occasion of such inconsistency and no further, be
null and void.
The carrier shall be under no responsibility whatsoever for loss of or damage to goods howsoever
and wheresoever occurring when such loss or damage arises prior to the loading on and/or subsequent
to the discharge from the ship.
The carrier shall, notwithstanding anything in this Bill of Lading, have the benefit of all
exemptions from and limitations of liability contained in the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, England,
and any existing modifications thereof.
2. The vessels of the Line proceed with passengers and/or cargo from one or more ports in
the United Kingdom and/or Continent of Europe to one or more ports in the Persian Gulf via
intermediate ports for example among others ports in the Mediterranean (including Adriatic and
Aegean Seas and East of the Suez Canal), ports in the Red Sea and Gulf of Oman, and it
is not always practicable to proceed between such ports in geographical or any specified
sequence. The vessel has liberty for the purposes of loading and/or discharging passengers and/or
cargo of all kinds dangerous or otherwise, for dry docking with or without the cargo on board, for
bunkering or storing, repairing, adjusting compasses or otherwise for any purpose whatsoever
of the Line or of the vessel, her crew, passengers or lading, to proceed to and stay at any ports
or places in the United Kingdom and/or the Continent between Hamburg and Bordeaux both
inclusive in any order backwards or forwards and to return to any such port or ports to delay
the sailing from any port to proceed by any route and to change the proposed route before the
commencement of or at any time or stage of the voyage or to put into and remain at any port for
the above purposes aud for the same purposes to proceed to any ports or places in the Mediterranean,
as described above, also in the Persian Gulf and its rivers and inlets, in any order backwards or
forwards and even though beyond the port of discharge and all or any of such routes or ports or
places whether of loading, call or discharging even though not in geographical sequence or strictly
within the customary or advertised route are agreed to be within the intended voyage.
The vessel may sail with or without pilots, be towed, or tow, and assist vessels in all situations.
3. The goods may be stowed in poop, forecastle, deck house, shelter deck, or any other covered-
in space commonly used in the trade for the carriage of goods, and such goods shall be deemed
for all purposes to be stowed under deck.

ment or of discharge, the Carrier's responsibility shall cease, nor shall he nor the vessel be under any

tion, and of the storage, transport and transhipment of the goods while not on board a vessel of
the Line, the Carrier acts as forwarding agent only, paying the expenses of such operations but
incurring no responsibility as carrier or custodian of the goods, or otherwise for any loss, damage
or detention, howsoever caused ; in respect of such carriage, the goods shall be subject to all the
terms and conditions of the conveyance beyond the port of discharge, and the Owner of the goods
will have the benefit of the obligations of any such carriers by land or by water or of any warehouse
man, lighterman or others under their respective contracts with the Line. If, owing to strikes,
lock-outs or lat>our disturbances at port of transhipment or at port of destination, or to any Cause
beyond the control of the agents of the Line, the goods shall be delayed at the port of transhipment
beyond the period which would elapse before transhipment in normal circumstances, the storage
and other charges upon the goods after the expiration of the normal period shall be borne by the
owner of the goods.

prevented or likely to be delayed through any of the causes mentioned or by blockade interdict
quarantine, strikes, lock-outs, labour troubles (whether the Carrier or his servants are parties
thereto or not), civil commotions riot war epidemic fever or other illness, or any other cause
whatsoever beyond the Carrier's control, or if it shall be considered by the Master unsafe or
inadvisable for any of the said reasons or otherwise, or it is likely to subject the vessel or the
goods to quarantine there or at any subsequent port, then the goods may be landed or put into
lighters there or at the nearest safe and convenient port or place at the expense and risk of the
Owner of the goods ; and the Carrier's responsibility shall cease when the goods are so discharged
into proper and safe keeping, the Master or Agents giving immediate notice of the same to the

implied in this Bill of Lading, the Carrier shall have the liberty to complv with any orders or
directions as to departure, arrival, routes, ports of call, stoppages, transhipment, discharge or
destination or otherwise, howsoever given by any Government or any Department thereof or of
any person acting or purporting to act with the authority of any Government or any Department
thereof, or by any War Risk Insurance Association working uuder any Government scheme in
which the vessel may be entered, and nothing done or not done under such orders or direcUons
shall be deemed a deviation.
7. Every piece or package must be distinctly, correctly and permanently marked by the
Shipper before shipment with a mark and number or address and with the name of the port of
discharge in letters not less than two inches long, and the Carrier will not be responsible for
consequences of failure to comply with these requirements.

owing to no weight, or incorrect weight, having been declared by the Shipper, or owing to incorrect
or insufficient marking or description of the pieces or packages, or owing to pieces or packag
not being in accordance with local requirements at port of discharge, the Owner of the goods shai.
be responsible therefor.

repairs to packages, boxes, crates, wrappers, bags, barrels or other cases or coverings resulting
from insufficiency of packing or from excepted perils.

Carrier or his Agent shall be conclusive evidence of the amount that would have been so charged
9. Delivery of the goods shall be taken from the vessel's own tackle by the rail or when vessel's
tackle not used then over the rail by the Consignees or their agents (including the Harbour Board
or other port authority or their agents, where it is customary for them to receive the goods) from

may be stored afloat or ashore at the expense (including sorting and/or stacking) and risk of the

night, Sundays and holidays included, as fast as the vessel can deliver, and shall be under no liability
to notify the Owner of the goods of the arrival of the goods ; any custom of the port to the contrary

freight and/or expenses under Clause 8 payable on corrected weight or measurement) and for all
payments made and liabilities incurred in respect of charges, expenditure, damages, costs and
expenses (including the costs and expenses of exercising such lien and of such sale) and for the
interest (if any) payable thereon which under this Bill of Lading are to be borne and paid by the
Owner of the goods.
