The inclusion in

Clause No. 1 of the Institute War Clauses) may be cancelled
by either the Underwriters or the Insured giving seven
days’ notice.
Such cancellation shall become effective on the expiry of
seven days from Midnight of the day on which notice of
cancellation is issued by or to Insurers, but shall not
apply to:
(a) Any insurance against
the said risks which shall have attached in accordance
with the conditions of the Institute War Clauses before
the cancellation becomes effective.
(b) Any declaration of
goods for shipment by a named vessel or of specified goods
to be shipped by a vessel to be named later accepted by
Insurers before the time at which the cancellation becomes

loaded on board the overseas vessel and the vessel sails
within 15 days from Midnight of the day on which the
cancellation becomes effective, but if the insurance shall
have attached and the vessel does not sail within the said
15 days the insurance shall end on the expiry of that
period notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in the provisions of this contract of insurance.

IMPORTANT
CLAIMS NOTICE
|
|
Examine your
cargo promptly after delivery from carrier.
When cargo is received from
the carrier in short or damaged condition at destination, it
is necessary for you to take the following action:
- Immediately file general
notice of claim against the carriers by either endorsing
the delivery receipt or by letter.
- As soon as a complete
examination of the goods has been made, notify the
carriers in writing of the actual items lost or damaged,
specifying values, etc.
Filing claim against the
carrier will protect what rights you may have under the Bill
of Lading and will not affect your rights under your
insurance policy.

|
|
| SUGGESTIONS
TO FACILITATE HANDLING OF CLAIMS AGAINST INSURERS. |

This insurance
5.1.1
attaches only as the subject-matter insured
and as to any part as that part is loaded on
an oversea vessel
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 part is discharged
from an oversea vessel at the final port or
place of discharge, or on expiry of 15 days
counting from midnight of the day of arrival
of the vessel at the final port or place of
discharge, whichever shall first occur;
nevertheless, subject to prompt notice to
the Underwriters 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 on
expiry of 15 days counting from midnight of
the day of re-arrival of the vessel at the
final port or place of discharge or arrival of
the vessel at a substituted port or place of
discharge, whichever shall first occur.
5.2
If during the insured voyage the oversea vessel
arrives at an intermediate port or place to
discharge the subject-matter insured for
on-carriage by oversea vessel or by aircraft, or
the goods are discharged from the vessel at a
port or place of refuge, then, subject to 5.3
below and to an additional premium if required,
this insurance continues until the expiry of 15
days counting from midnight of the day of
arrival of the vessel at such port or place, but
thereafter reattaches as the subject-matter
insured and as to any part as that part is
loaded on an on-carrying oversea vessel or
aircraft. During the period of 15 days the
insurance remains in force after discharge only
whilst the subject-matter insured and as to any
part as that part is at such port or place. If
the goods are on-carried within the said period
of 15 days or if the insurance reattaches as
provided in this Clause 5.2
5.2.1

this insurance continues subject to the terms
of these clauses,
or

form part of this insurance and shall apply to
the on-carriage by air.
5.3
If the voyage in the contract of carriage is
terminated at a port or place other than the
destination agreed therein, such port or place
shall be deemed the final port of discharge and
such insurance terminates in accordance with
5.1.2. If the subject-matter insured is
subsequently reshipped to the original or any
other destination, then provided notice is
given to the Underwriters before the
commencement of such further transit and subject
to an additional premium, such insurance
reattaches
5.3.1
in the case of the subject-matter insured
having been discharged, as the subject-matter
insured and as to any part as that part is
loaded on the on-carrying vessel for the
voyage;
5.3.2 in the case of the subject-matter not
having been discharged, when the vessel sails
from such deemed final port of discharge;
thereafter such insurance terminates in
accordance with 5.1.4.
5.4
The insurance against the risks of mines and
derelict torpedoes, floating or submerged, is
extended whilst the subject-matter insured or
any part thereof is on craft whilst in transit
to or from the oversea vessel, but in no case
beyond the expiry of 60 days after discharge
from the oversea vessel unless otherwise
specially agreed by the Underwriters.
5.5 Subject
to prompt notice to Underwriters, and to an

3.1
This insurance
3.1.1
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
3.1.2 terminates, subject to 3.2 and 3.3
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 Underwriters and to an
additional premium, such insurance
3.1.3 reattaches when, without having
discharged the subject-matter insured at the
final place of discharge, the aircraft departs
therefrom.
and
3.1.4 terminates, subject to 3.2 and 3.3
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.
3.2
If during the insured transit the aircraft
arrives at an intermediate place to discharge
the subject-matter insured for on-carriage by
aircraft or by oversea vessel, then, subject to
3.3 below and to an additional premium if
required, this insurance continues until the
expiry of 15 days counting from midnight of the
day of arrival of the aircraft at such place,
but thereafter reattaches as the subject-matter
insured and as to any part as that part is
loaded on an on-carrying aircraft or oversea
vessel. During the period of 15 days the
insurance remains in force after discharge only
whilst the subject-matter insured and as to any
part as that part is at such intermediate place.
If the goods are on-carried within the said
period of 15 days or if the insurance reattaches
as provided in this Clause 3.2
3.2.1
where the on-carriage is by aircraft this
insurance continues subject to the terms of
these clauses,

3.3
If the air transit in the contract of carriage
is terminated at a place other than the
destination agreed therein, that place shall be
deemed the final place of discharge and such
insurance terminates in accordance with 3.1.2.
If the subject-matter insured is subsequently
consigned to the original or any other
destination, then provided notice is given to
the Underwriters before the commencement of such
further transit and subject to an additional
premium, such insurance reattaches
3.3.1in
the case of the subject-matter insured having
been discharged, as the subject-matter insured
and as to any part as that part is loaded on
the on-carrying aircraft for the transit;
3.3.2 in the case of the subject-matter
insured not having been discharged, when the
aircraft departs from such deemed final place
of discharge; thereafter such insurance
terminates in accordance with 3.1.4.
3.4 Subject
to prompt notice to Underwriters, and to an
additional premium if required, this
insurance shall remain in force within the
provisions of these Clauses during any
deviation, or any variation of the adventure
arising from the exercise of a liberty granted
to the air carrier under the contract of
carriage. (For the purpose of Clause 3
