Terms of entry, assignment and special entries 

Terms of entry 

5.1.1 The standard terms of entry upon which ships will be accepted by the 

Managers are those set out in the Rules. 

5.1.2.1. The standard risks against which a Member is insured are those set out in 

Rule 20. 

5.1.2.2 However, a Member shall only be insured against the risks specified in 

paragraphs 4.A, 15.A, 19.A, 21.2, 29.A, 35 and 36 of Rule 20 if the 

insurance, and any sum insured, any additional contribution and any 

other terms have been specifically agreed in writing with the Managers 

and specified (other than the amount of any additional contribution 

payable to the Club) in the Certificate of Entry. 

5.1.2.3 The rights of recovery set out in these Rules may be excluded, limited, 

modified or otherwise altered by any special terms which have been 

agreed in writing between an applicant and the Managers. 

5.1.2.4 The Terms of Entry and the insurance provided by the Club shall not, 

nor is intended to, confer any right or benefit on any third party under 

the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 save to the extent 

provided in Rule 8. 

5.1.3 The Managers may, subject to the directions of the Board, accept entries 

on terms as to contribution other than those set out in the Rules. In 

particular an entry may be accepted on the basis that a fixed premium is 

to be paid instead of Calls. 

Assignment 

5.1.4.1 No insurance given by the Club and no interest under these Rules or 

under any contract between the Club and any Member may be assigned 

without the written consent of the Managers who shall have the right in 

their discretion to give or refuse such consent without stating any reason 

or to give such consent upon any terms or conditions as they may think 

fit. Any purported assignment made without such consent or without 

there being due compliance with any such terms and conditions as the 

Managers may impose shall, unless the Managers in their discretion 

otherwise determine, be void and of no effect.

5.1.4.2 Whether or not the Managers shall expressly so stipulate as a condition 

for giving their consent to any assignment, the Club shall be entitled in 

settling any claim presented by the assignee to deduct or retain such 

amount as the Managers may then estimate to be sufficient to discharge 

any liabilities of the assignor to the Club whether existing at the time of 

the assignment or having accrued or being likely to accrue thereafter. 

Special entries 

5.2.1 A Member may be insured in respect of special risks including risks 

other than those set out in Rule 20, or in respect of risks otherwise 

excluded, where such special risks have been agreed in writing between 

the Member and the Managers. In particular, the Club may accept 

insurance for the following classes of cover under the provisions of this 

paragraph: 

(i) owner’s hull cover 

(ii) charterers’ hull cover 

(iii) charterers’ liability for loss of bunkers 

(iv) charterers’ liability for freight 

(v) Owner’s loss of hire 

(vi) war risks 

(vii) shipowners’ liability insurance 

(viii) costs and expenses in respect of freight, dead freight, demurrage and 

defence risks, 

and other such risks as the Managers from time to time think 

appropriate. 

5.2.2 Unless otherwise expressly agreed, such insurance shall be subject to the 

warranties, conditions, exceptions, limitations and other terms set out in 

these Rules. Subject to Rule 5.2.3, the nature and extent of the risks and 

the terms of the cover, and in particular the extent of the recovery that a 

Member may make from the Club shall be as agreed in writing between 

the Member and the Managers and endorsed upon the Certificate of 

Entry. 

5.2.3 Save insofar as any other limit and/or special terms are expressly agreed 

in writing by the Managers, cover for war risks including any limitation 

of liability shall be, or shall be deemed to be, in all respects on the terms 

9

10 

of the P & I War risks Clause – 2001, issued by the Club or any 

subsequent amendments thereto in force at the time of such insurance. 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT the Managers shall be at liberty to 

reinsure in whole or in part the risk or risks of the Club against any of 

the costs, liabilities or expenses insured by a Member under this Rule 5.2 

and in the event that such reinsurance is arranged such a Member shall 

be entitled to recover from the funds of the Club only the net amount 

actually recovered under such reinsurance arrangements, together with 

that portion (if any) of the risk or risks retained by the Club. 

5.3 Where a ship is entered by a charterer other than a demise or bareboat 

charterer the charterer shall be entitled to recover for his liability, 

together with costs and expenses incidental thereto, to indemnify the 

owner or disponent owner of the entered ship in respect of the risks set 

out in Rule 20. 

Application for entry 

6.1 Every applicant shall apply for an entry in such manner and form as the 

Managers may from time to time require. 

6.2 The applicant must furnish to the Managers: 

(i) all material particulars and information; and 

(ii) all such additional particulars and information as the Managers may 

require. 

6.3 An applicant warrants on his own behalf and on behalf of any other 

person entitled under these Rules that he has furnished all material 

particulars and information and that all such particulars and information 

are, so far as he knew or could with reasonable diligence ascertain, true 

and complete, and will remain so throughout the period of insurance. 

The particulars and information so furnished shall, if the entry of the 

relevant ship be accepted, be deemed to form the basis of the contract of 

insurance between the Member or applicant and the Club. 

6.4 Before any application for entry is accepted by the Managers, the 

Managers shall agree in writing the terms and conditions that will apply 

to the entry if the application is accepted, including (without prejudice 

to the generality of the foregoing) the contribution to be paid to the 

Club, the commencement of cover, and the terms and conditions on 

which the ship is to be accepted.

6.5 The provisions of this Rule apply throughout the period of entry of the 

ship in the Club and the Member is obliged to disclose any change or 

changes in any material particulars relating to such entry, such as, but not 

limited to, change of management, the entered ship’s flag, nationality of 

crew, tonnage, trading area and nature of trade. 

6.6 Failure to comply with any obligation contained in this Rule or to 

provide complete information or the provision of inaccurate information 

deprives an applicant, and any other person otherwise entitled to claim 

for recovery under these Rules, of any right to recovery whether or not 

the omission or inaccuracy was material to the recovery in question. 

Certificates of entry 

7.1 As soon as reasonably practicable after the acceptance of an application 

for entry of a ship for insurance in the Club, the Managers shall issue to 

the Member in respect of such a ship a Certificate of Entry in such form 

as they may from time to time determine but so that such Certificate of 

Entry shall state the date of the commencement of the period of 

insurance and the terms and conditions (other than the sums payable to 

the Club) on which the vessel has been accepted for insurance. 

7.2 If at any time there shall be a variation in the terms of entry relating to 

an entered ship, the Managers shall, as soon as reasonably practicable 

thereafter, issue to the Member in respect of such a ship an endorsement 

slip, in such form as they may from time to time determine, stating the 

terms of such variation and the date from which such variation is to be 

effective. 

7.3 Every Certificate of Entry and every endorsement slip issued as aforesaid 

shall be conclusive evidence and binding for all purposes as to the 

commencement of the period of insurance, as to the terms and 

conditions on which the ship has been entered for insurance, and as to 

the terms of any variation and the date from which such variation is to 

be effective; provided that in the event that any Certificate of Entry or 

any endorsement slip shall in the opinion of the Managers contain any 

error or omission the Managers may in their discretion issue a new 

Certificate of Entry or a new endorsement slip which shall be conclusive 

evidence and binding as aforesaid.

Joint Entrants, Co-assureds, Group Entries, 

and Affiliated and Associated Companies 

Joint Entrants 

8.1.1 The Managers may accept an application from a Member for another 

person or persons to become Joint Entrants in respect of that Member’s 

entry. In such a case, the Managers may agree that none, one or more 

such persons may become Members of the Club. Each Joint Entrant shall 

have an independent right of recovery from the Club in respect of any 

liabilities, costs or expenses arising out of a particular casualty or event. 

8.1.2 In the event that the application is accepted by the Managers, the 

Member who has made the application shall be designated the Principal 

Assured and shall be the person who is deemed irrevocably to have full 

power and authority to act in the name of and/or on behalf of all the 

Joint Entrants, and neither the Club nor the Managers, their servants or 

agents, shall be liable in any other manner whatsoever to any Joint 

Entrant in the event that the Member did not, in fact, have such power 

and authority. 

8.1.3 Unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Managers, the Member and 

all Joint Entrants shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all amounts 

due to the Club in respect of such entry. 

8.1.4 Any Member who is designated a Principal Assured warrants that he is, 

in relation to the entered ship, either the owner, owner in partnership, 

owner holding separate shares in severalty, part owner, trustee, charterer 

(whether bareboat, demise or otherwise) of the entered ship, a manager 

or operator having control of the operation and employment of the 

entered ship (being such control as is customarily exercised by a 

shipowner), or any other person in possession and control of the entered 

ship. 

8.1.5 In relation to any such application from a Member for any person or 

persons to become a Joint Entrant the Member and each Joint Entrant 

warrants that the Joint Entrant is, in relation to the entered ship, either: 

(i) interested in the operation, management or manning of an insured ship; 

or

(ii) the holding company or the beneficial owner of the person 

identified in the Certificate of Entry as the Principal Assured or of any 

person interested in the operation, management or manning of the 

entered ship; or 

(iii) a mortgagee of the entered ship; or 

(iv) the charterer of the entered ship. 

Co-assureds 

8.2.1 The Managers may accept an application from a Member for another 

person or persons to become Co-assureds in respect of that Member’s 

entry. 

8.2.2 The liability of the Club to all Co-assureds shall only extend insofar as 

they may be found liable to pay in the first instance for liabilities which 

are properly the responsibility of the Member, and nothing herein 

contained shall be construed as extending cover in respect of any amount 

which would not have been recoverable from the Club by the Member 

had the claim been made or enforced against him. Once the Club has 

made indemnification to such Co-assureds it shall not be under any 

further liability and shall not make any further payment to any person or 

company whatsoever, including the Member, in respect of that claim. 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT in relation to Rules 8.1 and/or 8.2: 

(i) the receipt by the Member or any one Joint Entrant or Co-assured of 

any sums paid by the Club in respect of such an entry shall be sufficient 

discharge by the Club for the same; 

(ii) any provision of these Rules by which a Member or Joint Entrant or 

Co-assured ceases to be insured or ceases to be entitled to recover from 

the Club in respect of any liability, loss or damage to which he might be 

entitled under these Rules shall be deemed to apply to all Members and 

all Joint Entrants and all Co-assureds. Failure by the Members or any one 

of the Joint Entrants or Co-assureds to comply with any of the 

obligations under these Rules is deemed to be the failure of the 

Members and all the Joint Entrants and all the Co-assureds. Conduct of a 

Member or any one Joint Entrant or Co-assured which would have 

entitled the Club to decline to indemnify it shall be deemed to be the 

conduct of all Members and all Joint Entrants and Co-assureds. 

(iii) the contents of any communication between the Member or any 

Joint Entrant or Co-assureds and the Club or the Managers, their 

servants or agents, shall be deemed to be within the knowledge of the 

Member and all Joint Entrants or Co-assureds; 

13 

3

14 

(iv) the Member and all Joint Entrants and all Co-assureds agree that no 

disputes of whatsoever nature or howsoever arising amongst themselves 

shall be the subject of any insurance or recovery from the Club and Joint 

Entrants and Co-assureds shall only be accepted on this basis: 

(v) no Member or Joint Entrant or Co-assured shall recover any amounts 

from the Club save for those liabilities arising out of operations and/or 

activities customarily carried on by or at the risk of or responsibility of 

shipowners and which are within the scope of the Member’s operations 

as a Member insured hereunder. 

(vi) Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing with the Managers and 

recorded in the Certificate of Entry, where a charterer is named as a Joint 

Entrant or Co-assured, the Member and all Joint Entrants or Coassureds, 

including such charterer, warrant that the charterer is either: 

(a) affiliated to or associated with the Member or each Joint Entrant, or 

(b) has contracted with the Member or a Joint Entrant for the provision of 

services to or by the entered ship and that contract 

(aa) has been approved by the Managers; and 

(bb) provides that each party should be similarly responsible for any loss 

or damage to its own (or its sub-contractors’) property and loss of life or 

personal injury to its own (or its sub-contractors’) personnel; 

and the charterer shall only be covered for liabilities, costs and expenses 

which are to be borne by the Member or Joint Entrant under the terms 

of the aforesaid contract and would, if borne by the Member or Joint 

Entrant be recoverable by either from the Club. 

Group Entries 

8.3.1 The Managers may accept any entry on the basis that the ship is part of a 

Group Rating Agreement and assess contributions accordingly. 

8.3.2 One person shall be designated Group Principal and any communication 

from or on behalf of the Club to the Group Principal shall be deemed to 

be within the knowledge of all members, Joint Entrants and Co-assureds 

in the Group, and any communication from and action taken by the 

Group Principal shall be deemed conclusively to be made with the full 

approval of any and all Members, Joint Entrants and Co-assureds within 

that Group. 

8.3.3 All persons entering ships under a Group Rating Agreement and the 

Group Principal will remain jointly and severally liable to pay all

amounts due to the Club in respect of any and all ships in the same 

group. 

Affiliated and Associated Companies 

8.4 In the case of a claim which would be recoverable from the Club being 

enforced through or against an affiliated or associated company of a 

Member but not of a Joint Entrant or a Co-assured, such company shall, 

if the Member so requires in writing, be entitled to recover such sum 

from the Club but only to the extent to which the Member would have 

been entitled to recover if the claim had been enforced against him. In 

the event that the Club makes such payment then the Club shall not be 

under any further liability and shall not make any further payment to any 

person or company, whatsoever, including that Member, in respect of 

such a claim.

Period of Insurance 

Period of Insurance, period of contribution, laid-up returns, cessation, 

cancellation and releases 

Period of insurance 

9.1 Unless otherwise agreed at the time of entry or unless otherwise 

provided by these Rules, the insurance afforded by the Club shall begin 

at the time stated in the Certificate of Entry for the commencement of 

the cover, and shall continue until noon G.M.T. on the 20th February 

next following, and thereafter from Policy Year to Policy Year. 

9.2.1 If a Member does not desire to continue the insurance in respect of an 

entered ship he shall give notice in writing to that effect to the Managers 

not later than 30 days prior to the expiry of the period of insurance. 

9.2.2 If the Managers do not desire to continue the insurance of a Member in 

respect of an entered ship, the Managers shall give notice in writing to 

that effect to that Member not later than 30 days prior to the expiry of 

the period of insurance. 

9.2.3 In either event the insurance in respect of such ship shall cease at noon 

G.M.T. on that day, save that, if the ship be then at sea, the insurance 

may, if the Member so requires by notice in writing to the Managers, be 

continued until the ship has arrived in berth or at anchorage at her next 

port. 

9.3. An entered ship shall not be withdrawn from the Club at any other time 

or in any other manner except with the consent of the Managers. 

Period of contribution and laid-up returns 

10.1 Subject to the provisions of Rule 15.4 in respect of Overspill Calls a 

Member shall (provided that he gives notice in writing to and submits 

his claim to the Managers within one month after the happening of any 

of the events specified below) be liable for contribution in respect of an 

entered ship to the Calls levied by the Club for the current Policy Year 

pro rata only to the period beginning with that Policy Year and ending: 

(i) at noon G.M.T. of the day upon which the ship was legally transferred 

by bill of sale or other formal document whereby the ownership was 

legally transferred;

(ii) at noon G.M.T. of the day upon which the ship became an actual or 

constructive total loss or was accepted by hull underwriters as being a 

constructive or compromised total loss; or such later date as the Board 

may in its absolute discretion determine; 

(iii) ten days from the date of the ship being last heard of or from her being 

posted at Lloyd’s as missing. 

10.2 If a ship shall be and remain in any safe port without any cargo on board 

for a period of thirty or more consecutive days after finally mooring 

there (such period being computed from the day of 

arrival to the day of departure, one only being included), the Member 

shall be allowed a return of Calls or premiums at a rate of no more than 

75%; 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT 

(i) unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Managers, there shall be no 

return if there are crew members on board the ship other than for 

security or for maintenance necessary for the safety of the ship during 

lay-up or if repairs are carried out other than for the safety of the ship 

during lay-up, and 

(ii) there shall be no return of Overspill Calls. 

Such returns shall be calculated pro rata per consecutive day for the total 

period during which the ship so remains. If the ship once finally moored 

shall thereafter shift its position within port limits, the Managers may 

allow the return subject to a deduction therefrom for the time taken to 

shift position; the deduction shall be reckoned by the number of days 

occupied, in whole or in part, by such shifting. 

Note: For example, if the ship shall be moored for 30 days and takes 6 hours to 

shift position during the 30 days, the return may be allowed for 29 days and if 

the ship takes 27 hours to shift position, the return may be allowed for 28 days. 

However insofar as any risk or part of any risk in respect of which the 

calls or premium have been paid is reinsured, the Club shall only make a 

return to the same extent that the reinsuring underwriters have made a 

return of premium to the Club. 

10.3 If a Member does not notify and submit his claim to the Managers 

within one month under paragraph 10.1 or within three months of the 

end of the Policy Year under paragraph 10.2, no pro rata allowance or 

laid-up return shall be made unless the Board in its sole discretion 

otherwise determines. 

17 

3

18 

10.4 Where the entry of a ship in the Club is in the name of or on behalf of 

a time charterer the Member shall be under an obligation to notify the 

Club of the date of redelivery of the ship or other termination of the 

time charter.The Member will remain liable for the payment of 

premiums or Calls in respect of each ship entered until the date of 

redelivery or other termination provided always that if the said 

notification to the Club is more than one month after the redelivery or 

termination then the Member shall be liable to pay Calls up to the date 

of notification unless the Board in its discretion otherwise decides. 

Note:Attention is drawn to the obligations set out in Rule 21.4. 

Cessation of insurance and cancellation 

11.1 A Member shall cease to be insured by the Club in respect of any and all 

ships entered by him upon the happening of any of the following events: 

(i) if, being an individual, upon his death or if a receiving order is made 

against him or if he shall become bankrupt or make any composition or 

arrangement with his creditors generally or if he shall become incapable 

by reason of mental disorder of managing and administering his property 

and affairs; 

(ii) if, being a corporation, upon the passing of any resolution for voluntary 

winding-up or upon an order being made for compulsory winding-up 

or upon dissolution or upon a receiver or manager of all or any part of 

the corporation’s business or undertaking being appointed or upon 

possession being taken by or on behalf of the holders of any debentures 

secured by a floating charge on any property comprised in or subject to 

the charge; 

(iii) if he ceases to have any ship entered for insurance in the Club. 

11.2 A Member shall cease to be insured by the Club in respect of any ship 

entered by him upon the happening of any of the following events in 

relation to such ship: 

(i) if the Member shall part with or assign the whole or any part of his 

interest in the entered ship whether by bill of sale or other formal 

document or otherwise, or shall cease to have an interest in the entered 

ship, unless the Managers shall have consented to such parting with or 

assignment or cessation of interest and to an assignment of the relevant 

insurance by the Club pursuant to Rule 5.1.4.1. hereof; 

. (ii) if the entered ship shall become an actual or constructive total loss or

shall be accepted by hull underwriters as an actual or constructive total 

loss or if there shall be any compromise with hull underwriters on the 

basis of the ship being considered or deemed to be an actual or 

constructive total loss, except as regards liabilities flowing directly from 

the casualty which gave rise to the actual or constructive loss of the ship 

or such later date as the Board in its discretion may determine; 

(iii) if the entered ship shall be missing for ten days from the date she was last 

heard of or from her being posted at Lloyd’s as missing, whichever shall 

be the earlier; 

(iv) if the managers of the entered ship shall be changed by the appointment 

of new managers, unless the Board shall otherwise determine; 

(v) if notice is given under Rule 9.2 and the notice is not withdrawn by 

agreement before the expiry of the period of insurance; 

(vi) if the entry is terminated or ceases under the provisions of Rule 21. 

11.3 A Member’s insurance shall be cancelled (whether or not such insurance 

may have already ceased for some other reason) if, having failed to pay 

when due and demanded by the Managers any sum owing from him to 

the Club (including any sum for which he is jointly and severally liable 

under Rule 8.3.1), he is served with a notice by or on behalf of the 

Managers or the Club requiring him to pay such sum on or before any 

date which may be specified in such notice and he fails to pay such sum 

in full on or before the date so specified. 

Effect of cessation of insurance and cancellation 

12.1 When a Member ceases to be insured by virtue of sub-paragraphs i, ii or 

iii of Rule 11.1 or when a Member ceases to be insured in respect of 

any ship by virtue of Rule 11.2 or Rule 21.1.v or Rule 21.3.2.i or for 

any other reason (all of which times are hereinafter in this Rule 12.1 

referred to as ‘’the date of cessation’’) then: 

(i) such Member and his successors shall be and remain liable for all 

contributions in respect of the whole of the Policy Year in which the 

date of cessation occurs and in respect of previous Policy Years unless and 

to the extent that Rule 10 is applicable or such liability may have been 

otherwise agreed or assessed under Rule 13; and 

(ii) the Club shall remain liable in respect of any ship entered by such 

Member or in the case of such entered ship (as the case may be) for all 

claims under these Rules arising by reason of any event which had 

19 

3

20 

occurred prior to the date of cessation, but shall be under no liability 

whatsoever by reason of anything occurring after the date of cessation. 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT when a Member ceases to be insured by 

virtue of the entered ship becoming an actual or constructive total loss or 

being accepted by hull underwriters as being a constructive or 

compromised total loss, the Member shall continue to be insured by the 

Club in respect of wreck liabilities in accordance with Rule 20.14.6, and 

Rule 20.18. 

12.2 When a Member’s insurance is cancelled by virtue of Rule 11.3 then: 

(i) subject to the provisions of Rule 15.4 in respect of Overspill Calls, if the 

cancellation occurs while the Member is, but for the cancellation, 

insured, such Member and his successor shall be and remain liable for all 

contributions in respect of the Policy Year during which the date 

specified in the notice given in accordance with Rule 11.3 (“the date of 

cancellation”) occurs pro rata only for the period beginning at the 

commencement of the Policy Year (or in the case of a ship entered 

during that Policy Year, the date of entry) and ending with the date of 

cancellation and in respect of previous Policy Years irrespective of 

whether or not notice has been given under that Rule; 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT the Managers in their discretion may 

select a date earlier than the date of cancellation and may require the 

Member or his successors to pay contributions on a pro rata basis for the 

period beginning as specified above and ending with the date so selected. 

(ii) if the cancellation occurs after the Member has ceased to be insured for 

some other reason, such Member and his successor shall remain liable for 

all contributions as provided for in Rule 12.1.i above. 

(iii) the Club shall thereupon cease to be liable for all and any claims under 

these Rules in respect of all and any ships entered by such Member: 

(iii.a) which may arise by reason of any event occurring after the date of 

cancellation; 

(iii.b) which have accrued or arisen during a Policy Year for which sums 

remained owing but unpaid by the Member in full or in part at the date 

of cancellation; 

(iii.c) which may have accrued or arisen in any year other than those 

referred to in iii.b above; 

irrespective of whether the Club may have admitted liability for or

appointed lawyers, surveyors or any other persons to deal with such 

claims; and irrespective of whether at the date of cancellation the claims 

were likely to accrue or the events giving rise thereto were or were not 

known to the Club; but as from the date of cancellation any liability for 

such claims shall retrospectively terminate and the Club shall be under 

no liability to such Member on any account whatsoever. 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT the Board may, in its discretion and upon 

such terms as to payment of contributions or otherwise as it thinks fit, 

admit either wholly or partly any claim in respect of any ship entered by 

a Member for which the Club is under no liability under either 

paragraph 1 or paragraph 2 of this Rule, whether arising before or after 

any date of cancellation as hereinbefore referred to, or remit wholly or 

partly any payment of contribution due under either such paragraph. 

Releases 

13.1 Upon the cessation of insurance of any ship, the Managers may release a 

Member from all further liability for contributions to the Club, other 

than in respect of any Overspill Call assessed in accordance with the 

provisions of Rule 15.4 and 15.5, and in such case shall prepare a 

Release which shall be calculated by reference to such percentage of the 

Advance Call Rate as the Board may in its discretion from time to time 

decide. 

13.2 The Member shall pay the Release prepared in accordance with 

paragraph 1 of this Rule within such time as may be specified by the 

Managers, unless within such time he gives notice in writing to the 

Managers that he will pay all further contributions as they fall due. 

13.3 If in accordance with paragraph 2 of this Rule the Member elects to pay 

further contributions as they fall due, he shall, unless he has other ships 

remaining entered in the Club, provide at his own expense within such 

period as may be specified by the Managers, a guarantee acceptable to 

the Managers in favour of the Club for the full amount of the Release. 

Should he fail to provide such a guarantee within the period specified, 

the Release shall automatically become payable. If, during the period that 

the Member is still liable to pay further contributions to the Club, he 

subsequently withdraws all his ships, or has no other ships remaining 

entered for insurance in the Club, then the Member shall provide 

forthwith a guarantee acceptable to the Managers in favour of the Club 

for the full amount of all Releases, or amended Releases, prepared by the 

Managers in respect of all his ships. 

13.4 If after the original Release is prepared the Board shall amend the 

21 

3

22 

Release percentage, the Managers may prepare an amended Release; and 

in such case, if the Member has not elected to pay further contributions 

as they fall due and has not paid the original Release within such time as 

may be specified by the Managers in paragraph 2 above, the amended 

Release shall supersede the original Release and shall be immediately 

payable. If the Member has elected to pay further contributions as they 

fall due, the Member shall provide within such time as may be specified 

by the Managers an amended guarantee acceptable to the Managers for 

the full amount of the amended Release, and should the Member fail to 

provide such amended guarantee within the period specified then his 

right to pay further contributions shall be withdrawn and the full 

amount of the amended Release shall become immediately payable. 

13.5 In all such cases the Managers may impose such other terms and 

conditions as they think fit. 

13.6 A Member or former Member who has paid a Release shall be under no 

liability for any contributions in respect of any ship which is the subject 

of the Release assessed after the date of the Release, other than in respect 

of any Overspill Call assessed in accordance with the provisions of Rule 

15.4 and 15.5, and shall have no right to share in any return of 

contributions or other receipts which the Board may thereafter decide to 

make. 

Contributions 

Basis of contribution, contributions, calls, Managers’ remuneration, payment, 

closing of policy years, reserves, investment and reinsurance 

Basis of contribution 

14.1 Before any application for the entry of a ship for insurance in the Club is 

accepted by the Managers, the applicant and the Managers shall, unless 

the ship is to be entered on the terms that a fixed premium is payable to 

the Club, agree the Advance Call Rate on the basis of which 

contributions are payable to the Club in respect of that ship. 

14.2.1 The Managers may agree with a Member to vary the Advance Call Rate 

during a Policy Year. If no variation agreement is agreed, the Advance 

Call Rate will remain effective until the end of the Policy Year in 

question.

14.2.2 Prior to the start of a policy year the Board shall decide the percentage 

by which there is to be a general change in the Advance Call Rates of all 

Members which are to be levied upon entered ships, and unless 

otherwise agreed between the Managers and the Member, the Advance 

Call Rates so changed shall apply in respect of such Policy Year. 

Mutual contributions 

15.1 Members who have ships entered for insurance in the Club in respect of 

any Policy Year (not being a closed Policy Year), otherwise than on terms 

that a fixed premium shall be payable, shall severally and not jointly, but 

each in his own name only, mutually insure each other in accordance 

with the provisions of these Rules against all claims, liabilities, costs and 

expenses for which all or any of them may become liable in respect of 

any entered ship in any Policy Year and for this purpose the Members 

shall contribute to the funds or other obligations of the Club required to 

meet: 

(i) all such claims, liabilities, costs, expenses and other outgoings (actual or 

anticipated) as, in the opinion of the Board, necessarily and properly fall 

on the Club; 

(ii) all such transfers to reserves or provisions as the Board in its discretion 

may deem it expedient to make, including transfers to reserves and 

provisions in respect of any deficiency, actual or anticipated, in respect of 

any closed Policy Year; 

(iii) all such sums as the Club may by any governmental or other similar 

legislation or regulation be required to set aside in order to establish 

and/or maintain an adequate solvency margin and/or guarantee fund in 

respect of any Policy Year.Without in any way limiting the obligations of 

Members to pay such sums, the Board may, in its discretion and at any 

time or times, require any or all Members to guarantee specifically the 

payment of such sums in such terms and with such security as the Board 

may from time to time decide. 

Advance Calls 

15.2 Prior to or at the beginning of each Policy Year, the Board shall levy 

upon Members an Advance Call calculated on the basis of the Advance 

Call Rate per entered ton and shall decide the number of instalments in 

which payment is to be made.The Board may authorise the Managers to 

allow a variation in the number of instalments. 

23 

3

24 

Supplementary Calls 

15.3.1 At any time or times during or after the end of each Policy Year (but not 

after such Policy Year has been closed) the Board may decide to levy 

from the Members who have or had ships entered for insurance in 

respect of that year (other than fixed premium entries) one or more 

Supplementary Calls. Such Supplementary Call or Calls shall be 

calculated by reference to such percentage of the Advance Call as the 

Board may in its discretion decide. 

15.3.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 3.1 above, the Managers 

may agree with a Member for the payment of an estimated 

Supplementary Call to be paid with the Advance Call but such 

agreement shall not relieve that Member from the obligation to pay the 

balance, if any, of any Supplementary Call as may be levied by the Board. 

Overspill Calls 

15.4.1 The funds required to pay any Overspill Claim incurred by the Club 

shall be provided 

(i) from such sums as the Club is able to recover from the other parties to 

the Pooling Agreement as their contributions to the Overspill Claim, and 

(ii) from such sums as the Club is able to recover from any special insurance 

which may, in the discretion of the Board, have been effected to protect 

the Club against the risk of payments of Overspill Claims, and 

(iii) from such proportion as the Board in its discretion determines of any 

sums standing to the credit of such reserves as the Board may in its 

discretion have established, and 

(iv) by levying one or more Overspill Calls in accordance with Rules 15.4.3 

to 15.4.6, irrespective of whether the Club has sought to recover or has 

recovered all or any of the sums referred to in Rule 15.4.1.ii but 

provided the Board shall first have made a determination in accordance 

with Rule 15.4.1.iii, and 

(v) from any interest accruing to the Club on any funds provided as 

aforesaid. 

15.4.2 The funds required to pay such proportion of any Overspill Claim 

incurred by any other party to the Pooling Agreement which the Club is 

liable to contribute under the terms of the Pooling Agreement shall be 

provided in the manner specified in Rules 15.4.1.ii, iii, iv and v.

15.4.3 If 

(i) the Board shall at any time determine that funds are or may in future be 

required to pay part of an Overspill Claim (whether incurred by the 

Club or by any other party to the Pooling Agreement); and 

(ii) the Board shall have made a declaration under Rule 15.5.1 or 15.5.3 that 

a Policy Year shall remain open for the purpose of levying an Overspill 

Call or Calls in respect of that Overspill Claim, 

the Board in its discretion, at any time or times after such declaration has 

been made, may levy one or more Overspill Calls in respect of that 

Overspill Claim in accordance with Rule 15.4.4. 

15.4.4 The Board shall levy any such Overspill Call 

(i) on all Members entered in the Club on the Overspill Claim Date in 

respect of ships entered by them at that time, notwithstanding the fact 

that, if the Overspill Claim Date shall be in a Policy Year in respect of 

which the Club has made a declaration under Rule 15.5.3, any such ship 

may not have been entered in the Club at the time the relevant incident 

or occurrence occurred, and 

(ii) at such percentage of the Convention Limit of each such ship as the 

Board in its discretion shall decide. 

15.4.5 Any Overspill Call shall not be levied in respect of any ship entered on 

the Overspill Claim Date with an overall limit of cover equal to or less 

than the Group Reinsurance Limit. 

15.4.6 The Board shall not levy on any Member in respect of the entry of any 

one ship an Overspill Call or Calls in respect of any one Overspill Claim 

exceeding in the aggregate two and a half per cent (2.5%) of the 

Convention Limit of that ship. 

15.4.7 If at any time after the levying of an Overspill Call upon the Members 

entered in the Club in any Policy Year, it shall appear to the Board that 

the whole of such Overspill Call is unlikely to be required to meet the 

Overspill Claim in respect of which such Overspill Call was levied, the 

Board may decide to dispose of any excess which in the opinion of the 

Board is not so required in one or both of the following ways: 

(i) by transferring the excess or any part thereof to reserves in accordance 

with Rule 15.11.4; or 

(ii) by returning the excess of any part thereof to those Members who have 

paid that Overspill Call in proportion to the payments made by them.

26 

15.5.1 If at any time prior to the expiry of a period of thirty-six months from 

the commencement of a Policy Year (the “relevant Policy Year”), any of 

the parties to the Pooling Agreement sends a notice (an “Overspill 

Notice”) in accordance with the Pooling Agreement that an incident or 

occurrence has occurred in the relevant Policy Year which has given or at 

any time may give rise to an Overspill Claim, the Board shall as soon as 

practicable declare that the relevant Policy Year shall remain open for the 

purpose of levying an Overspill Call or Calls in respect of that claim and 

the relevant Policy Year shall not be closed for the purpose of making an 

Overspill Call or Calls in respect of that claim until such date as the 

Board shall determine. 

15.5.2 If at the expiry of the period of thirty-six months provided for in Rule 

15.5.1, no Overspill Notice as therein provided for has been sent, the 

relevant Policy Year shall be closed automatically for the purpose of 

levying Overspill Calls only, whether or not closed for any other 

purposes, such closure to have effect from the date falling thirty-six 

months after the commencement of the relevant Policy Year. 

15.5.3 If at any time after a Policy Year has been closed in accordance with the 

provisions of Rules 15.5.1 and 15.5.2, it appears to the Board that an 

incident or occurrence which occurred during such closed Policy Year 

may then or at any time in the future give rise to an Overspill Claim, the 

Board shall as soon as practicable declare that the earliest subsequent 

open Policy Year (not being a Policy Year in respect of which the Board 

has already made a declaration in accordance with Rule 15.5.1 or 15.5.3) 

shall remain open for the purpose of levying an Overspill Call or Calls in 

respect of that claim and such open Policy Year shall not be closed for 

the purpose of making an Overspill Call or Calls in respect of that claim 

until such date as the Board shall determine. 

15.5.4 A Policy Year shall not be closed for the purpose of levying Overspill 

Calls save in accordance with this Rule 15.5. 

15.6.1 If 

(i) the Board makes a declaration in accordance with Rule 15.5.1 or 15.5.3 

that a Policy Year shall remain open for the purpose of levying an 

Overspill Call or Calls, and 

(ii) a Member who is liable to pay any such Overspill Call or Calls as may 

be levied by the Board in accordance with Rule 15.4 ceases or has 

ceased to be insured by the Club for any reason, or the Board determines 

that the insurance of any such Member may cease

the Board may require such Member to provide to the Club by such 

date as the Board may determine (the “due date”) a guarantee or other 

security in respect of the Member’s estimated future liability for such 

Overspill Call or Calls, such guarantee or other security to be in such 

form and amount (the “guarantee amount”) and upon such terms as the 

Board in its discretion may deem to be appropriate in the circumstances. 

15.6.2 Unless and until such guarantee or other security as is required by the 

Board has been provided by the Member, the Member shall not be 

entitled to recovery from the Club of any claims whatsoever and 

whensoever arising in respect of any and all ships entered in the Club for 

any Policy Year by him or on his behalf. 

15.6.3 If such guarantee or other security is not provided by the Member to the 

Club by the due date, a sum equal to the guarantee amount shall be due 

and payable by the Member to the Board on the due date, and shall be 

retained by the Club as a security deposit on such terms as the Board in 

its discretion may deem to be appropriate in the circumstances. 

15.6.4. The provision of a guarantee or other security as required by the Board 

(including a payment in accordance with Rule 15.6.3.) shall in no way 

restrict or limit the Member’s liability to pay such Overspill Call or Calls 

as may be levied by the Club in accordance with Rule 15.4. 

Managers’ remuneration 

15.7 The Managers shall be remunerated by the Club on such basis as may be 

fixed by the Board. 

Payment 

15.8.1 Every Advance Call, Supplementary Call, Special Call and Release due 

under Rule 13, shall be designated in US Dollars and any such Call or 

Release and any Overspill Call shall be payable in such instalments, in 

such manner and on such dates as the Board shall specify and without 

prejudice to the rights and remedies of the Club under these Rules. If 

any Call or instalment or part thereof or any other sum of whatsoever 

nature due from a Member is not paid on the specified date (time being 

of the essence) such Member shall pay interest on the amount 

outstanding from and including the date so specified down to the date of 

payment at such rate or rates as the Board shall from time to time 

determine whether during the currency of the Policy Year to which the 

amount outstanding relates or otherwise; provided always that the Board 

may waive payment of such interest in whole or in part. 

27

28 

15.8.2 The Club shall be entitled to, and the Member hereby grants, a lien on 

the entered ship in respect of any amount whatsoever owed by the 

Member to the Club. 

15.9 Subject to the provisions of Rule 15.4 in respect of Overspill Calls, if any 

Member defaults in payment of any sum due from him such sum shall be 

paid by all other Members rateably in proportion to the aggregate 

contributions due from them in respect of the Policy Year(s) concerned; 

provided that the Board may make any Supplementary Call or Calls on 

Members by reference to their estimated liability under this Rule 15.9 

and where any Member defaults in respect of that Call or Calls then the 

other Members shall be liable for any deficiency in accordance with the 

provisions of this paragraph 15.9 and payment may be enforced by the 

Club. Each Member who may for the time being be entitled to receive 

from the Club any payment in respect of any loss, claim or demand shall 

bear and contribute the proportion thereof due in respect of any ship or 

ships entered by him, including the ship in respect of which the loss, 

claim or demand arises. 

Closing of Policy Years 

15.10.1 Subject to the provisions of Rule 15.5 above, the Board may decide that 

any Policy Year shall be closed at such time as it may deem expedient. 

15.10.2 If the contributions obtained in respect of such Policy Year should 

exceed the claims, liabilities, costs, expenses and other outgoings falling 

upon the Club for that year, the Board may either carry that surplus to 

such reserve or reserves as the Board may think proper or may return it 

in whole or in part to the persons who made such contributions in 

proportion to the aggregate contributions made by them in such policy 

year. 

15.10.3 If at any time or times after a Policy Year has been closed it shall appear 

to the Board that the claims (other than Overspill Claims), expenses and 

outgoings arising in respect of a Policy Year exceed or are likely to 

exceed the totality of the Calls (other than Overspill Calls) and other 

receipts in respect of such Policy Year (and of all transfers from reserves 

and provisions made for the credit of or in respect of such Policy Year) 

then the Board may decide to provide for such deficiency in any one or 

more of the following ways: 

(i) by transferring funds from the reserves of the Club; 

(ii) by transferring funds standing to the credit of any different closed Policy 

Year;

(iii) by making an Advance or Supplementary Call in respect of an open 

Policy Year with the intention of applying a part thereof to meet any 

such deficiency. 

Reserves 

15.11.1 The Board may in its discretion establish and maintain such reserve fund 

or other accounts as it thinks fit. 

15.11.2 Without prejudice to the generality of Rule 15.11.1, the Board may, in 

its discretion, establish and maintain a reserve to provide a source of 

funds which may be applied towards meeting any Overspill Claim or 

Claims. 

15.11.3 The Board may apply the sums standing to the credit of any reserve for 

any of the purposes for which the reserve was maintained even though 

the sum be paid in respect of a different Policy Year or years from that 

from which the funds originated.The Board may also apply the sums 

standing to the credit of any reserve (other than an Overspill Reserve) 

for any other or different purposes whenever the Board considers this to 

be in the interests of the Club or its Members.The Board may also at 

any time transfer sums from one reserve (other than an Overspill 

Reserve) to another. 

15.11.4 The funds required to establish such reserves or accounts may be raised 

in any of the following ways: 

(i) the Board, when deciding on the rate of any Advance or Supplementary 

Call for any Policy Year, may resolve that any specified amount or 

proportion of such Call shall be transferred to and applied for the 

purposes of any reserve or account; 

(ii) the Board may on the closing of any Policy Year resolve that any 

specified amount or proportion of the funds standing to the credit of that 

Policy Year shall be transferred to and applied for the purposes of any 

such reserve or account; 

(iii) the Board may in reviewing the funds available for the settlement of 

claims arising in all closed Policy Years resolve that any specified amount 

standing to the credit of the closed Policy Years shall be transferred to 

and applied for the purposes of such reserve or account. 

(iv) the Club may transfer to any reserve established by the Board any 

balance of an Overspill Call not required to satisfy the Overspill Claim in 

respect of which it was levied, as contemplated in Rule 15.4.7.i.

Investment 

15.12.1 The funds of the Club may be invested by the Board by means of the 

purchase of such stocks, shares, bonds, debentures or other securities or 

the purchase of such currencies, commodities, or other real or personal 

property, or by means of being deposited in such accounts as the Board 

may think fit.The funds of the Club may also be invested in any other 

way the Board may approve. 

15.12.2 Unless the Board otherwise decides, all the funds standing to the credit 

of any Policy Year or of any reserve or account shall be pooled and 

invested as one fund. 

15.12.3 When funds are pooled as provided in paragraph 15.12.2 above, the 

investment income arising on the pooled funds (taking into account any 

capital gains or losses) shall be apportioned among and between the 

different Policy Years, reserves and accounts from which the fund or 

funds, so invested, originated, in such manner as to ensure so far as 

possible that each is credited with a proportion of such income 

corresponding to the proportion which the amount standing to the 

credit of the Policy Year, reserve or account over the period during 

which the income arose bears to the total of the pooled funds over the 

same period. 

15.12.4 Without prejudice to paragraph 15.12.3 of this Rule, the Board may 

direct that after the closing of any Policy Year that year shall not be 

credited with any share of the apportionments made under that 

paragraph and that its share shall instead be credited to any reserve or 

account maintained by the Club. 

30 

Reinsurance 

15.13 The Club may continue to be a party to the Pooling Agreement, or to 

any other agreement of a similar nature or purpose. 

15.14 The Managers shall have the right in their discretion to effect on behalf

consider appropriate.

Right and Extent of Recovery 

16.1 Subject always to the provisions of paragraph 16.7 below, if any Member 

shall incur any liabilities, costs or expenses as hereinafter set out in Rule 

20 of these Rules in respect of a ship which was entered in the Club at 

the time of the casualty or event giving rise to such liabilities, costs or 

expenses, such Member shall be entitled to recover out of the funds of 

the Club the amount of such liabilities, costs or expenses, less any savings 

accruing to the member, to the extent and upon the terms, conditions 

and exceptions provided by these Rules, unless otherwise agreed in 

writing with the Managers.

not being a bareboat or demise charterer, then such recovery shall be 

limited in respect of all claims arising out of any one incident or 

occurrence to such sum or sums as the Board may from time to time 

determine, whether or not the charterer has received notice of such 

determination. 

Note:The Board has determined that in addition to any other limitations of cover 

contained in the Rules or set out in the Certificate of Entry the following 

limitations of cover, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Managers, shall 

apply from 20th February 2001: 

(i) For the purposes of this note; 

(i.a) any reference to a charterer shall be deemed to be a reference to a charterer 

other than a bareboat or demise charterer; 

(i.b) “Charterer’s” Entry means an entry which has a charterer as Member or as 

Principal Assured; 

(i.c) “Owner’s Entry” means an entry other than a Charterer’s Entry; 

(i.d) “limitation amount” means, in relation to any claim, the amount to which 

the insured person could have limited its liability had it been the registered owner 

of the relevant ship and had it sought and not been denied the right to limit. 

(ii) In respect of all claims (other than oil pollution claims) arising under any one 

Charterer’s Entry or arising in respect of charterers insured as Joint Entrants or as 

Co-assureds under any one Owner’s Entry recovery shall be limited in the 

aggregate to the lesser of: 

(ii.a) U.S.$100 million in excess of the limitation amount (if any) and 

(ii.b) U.S.$300 million 

each incident or occurrence. 

(iii) 

(iii.a) In respect of all oil pollution claims arising under any one Charterer’s 

Entry, recovery shall be limited in the aggregate to U.S.$100 million any one 

event. 

(iii.b) In the event that there is more than one Charterer’s Entry in respect of the 

same ship with the Club and/or with any other insurer which participates in the 

Pooling Agreement, the aggregate recovery in respect of all oil pollution claims 

arising under such Charterers’ Entries shall not exceed U.S.$300 million any one 

event, and the liability of the Club under each such Charterer’s Entry shall be

limited to such proportion of U.S.$300 million as the claims arising under the 

Charterer’s Entry bear to the aggregate of all such claims recoverable from the 

Club and any such other insurer. 

(iii.c) When a ship entered under a Charterer’s Entry provides salvage or other 

assistance to another vessel following a casualty, all claims for oil pollution 

howsoever arising incurred by the entered ship in respect of oil pollution shall be 

aggregated with all claims incurred in respect of oil pollution by any other ships 

whilst engaged in providing salvage or other assistance in connection with the same 

casualty, when and to the extent that those ships either: 

(iii.c.i) are entered under Charterer’s Entries in the Club and covered for the oil 

pollution risks set out in Rule 20.14; or 

(iii.c.ii) are covered for those risks under Charterer’s Entries with any other Club 

which participates in the Pooling Agreement. 

In such circumstances the limit of liability of the Club in respect of the entered 

ship shall be the proportion of U.S.$300 million as the said claims for oil 

pollution incurred by the entered ship bear to the aggregate of all claims in respect 

of oil pollution of all such other ships in connection with the said casualty. 

(iv) Oil pollution claims arising in respect of charterers insured as Joint Entrants or 

Co-assureds under Owner’s Entries shall be subject to the limits described in the 

note to Rule 20.14.

entered by any other owner of a ship or ships entered in the same Group 

Rating Agreement.

shall in all cases be subject to the right of the Club to decline to make 

any payment in respect of any claim in the event that there are any 

contributions due and owing from the Member to the Club, whether 

such contributions are owed in respect of the year in which the 

Member’s entitlement arises or any other year, provided that nothing 

herein shall affect, vary or derogate from the rights of the Club upon

Interest 

16.6 In no case whatsoever shall interest be paid upon sums due from the 

Club.

16.7 Unless the Board shall in its discretion otherwise determine, it is a 

condition precedent of a Member’s right to recover from the funds of the 

Club in respect of any liabilities, costs or expenses that he shall first have 

paid the same out of funds belonging to him unconditionally and not by 

way of loan or otherwise. 

16.7.2 Where the Club has paid a claim to or on behalf of a member, the 

whole of any recovery from a third party in respect of that claim shall be 

credited and paid to the Club up to an amount corresponding with the 

sum paid by the Club, including any interest and legal costs and 

expenses.

Certificate of Entry of the entered ship shall be deducted from any sum 

recoverable under these Rules or the said Certificate of Entry. 

16.8.2 Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing all claims shall be subject to 

such standard deductibles as the Board may from time to time determine, 

whether or not a Member has received notice of such determination. 

16.8.3 Without prejudice to the applicability of any deductible the Club may, 

by direction of the Board or the Managers, undertake the defence of a 

Member or institute legal proceedings on his behalf in respect of any 

amount not recoverable from the Club by reason of any deductible for 

the purpose of ascertaining in due course the legal liability or right of 

the Member; and the Club shall bear the expense of such legal 

proceedings; but the Member shall himself bear any damages therein 

adjudged or awarded against him. 

Note: Unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing with the Managers the 

following standard deductibles will apply to all claims: 

(i) Claims under Rule 20.20, 21 and 23 relating to loss of or damage to or 

responsibility in respect of cargo or for Cargo’s proportion of General Average, 

including special charges or salvage, shall be limited to the excess of U.S.$8,000 

in respect of each cargo voyage, SAVE THAT in respect of any cargo or part cargo 

of steel, claims shall be limited to the excess of U.S.$20,000 each cargo voyage;

accident or occurrence.

Overspill claims 

16.9.1 Without prejudice to any other applicable limit, any Overspill Claim 

incurred by the Club shall not be recoverable from the Club in excess of 

the aggregate of 

(i) that part of the Overspill Claim which is eligible for pooling under the 

Pooling Agreement but which, under the terms of the Pooling 

Agreement, is to be borne by the Club; and 

(ii) the maximum amount that the Club is able to recover from the other 

parties to the Pooling Agreement as their contributions to the Overspill 

Claim. 

16.9.2 The aggregate amount referred to in Rule 16.9.1 shall be reduced to the 

extent that the Club can evidence 

(i) that costs have been properly incurred by it in collecting or seeking to 

collect 

(a) Overspill Calls levied to provide funds to pay that part of the 

Overspill Claim referred to in Rule 16.9.1.i, or 

(b) the amount referred to in Rule 16.9.1.ii; or 

(ii) that it is unable to collect an amount equal to that part of the Overspill 

Claim referred to in Rule 16.9.1.i which it had intended to pay out of 

the levy of Overspill Calls because any Overspill Calls so levied, or parts 

thereof, are not economically recoverable, provided that if, due to a 

change in circumstances, such amounts subsequently become 

economically recoverable, the aggregate amount referred to in Rule 

16.9.1 shall be reinstated to that extent. 

16.9.3 In evidencing the matters referred to in Rule 16.9.2.ii the Club shall be 

required to show that 

(i) it has levied Overspill Calls in respect of the Overspill Claim referred to 

in Rule 16.9.1 on all Members entered in the Club on the Overspill 

Claim Date in accordance with and in the maximum amounts permitted 

under Rule 15.4; and 

(ii) it has levied those Overspill Calls in a timely manner, has not released or

Overspill Claim incurred by it in the manner specified in Rule 15.4.1.iv, 

35 

3

36 

the Club shall only be required to pay such Overspill Claim as and when 

such funds are received by it, provided that it can show from time to 

time that, in seeking to collect such funds, it has taken the steps referred 

to in Rule 16.9.3.i and ii. 

16.10.1 Any of the issues referred to in Rule 16.10.2 on which the Club and a 

Member cannot agree shall be referred to a panel (the “Panel”) 

constituted in accordance with arrangements established in the Pooling 

Agreement which, acting as a body of experts and not as an arbitration 

tribunal, shall determine the issue. 

16.10.2 This Rule 16.10 shall apply to any issue of whether, for the purpose of 

applying any of Rules 16.9.2, 16.9.3 and 16.9.4 in relation to any 

Overspill Claim (the “relevant Overspill Claim”) 

(i) costs have been properly incurred in collecting or seeking to collect 

Overspill Calls, or 

(ii) any Overspill Call or part thereof is economically recoverable, or 

(iii) in seeking to collect the funds referred to in Rule 16.9.4, the Club has 

taken the steps referred to in that Rule. 

16.10.3 If the Panel has not been constituted at a time when a Member wishes 

to refer an issue to it, the Board shall, on request by the Member, give a 

direction for the constitution of the Panel as required under the Pooling 

Agreement. 

16.10.4 The Board may (and, on the direction of the Member, shall) give such 

direction as is required under the Pooling Agreement for the formal 

instruction of the Panel to investigate any issue and to give its 

determination as soon as reasonably practicable. 

16.10.5 The Panel shall in its discretion decide what information, documents, 

evidence and submissions it requires in order to determine an issue and 

how to obtain these, and the Board and the Member shall co-operate 

fully with the Panel. 

16.10.6 In determining any issue referred to it under this Rule 16.10 the Panel 

shall endeavour to follow the same procedures as it follows in 

determining issues arising in respect of the relevant Overspill Claim 

which are referred to it under the Pooling Agreement. 

16.10.7 In determining an issue the members of the Panel

(i) shall rely on their knowledge and expertise, and 

(ii) may rely on any information, documents, evidence or submission 

provided to it by the Club or the Member as the Panel sees fit. 

16.10.8 If the three members of the Panel cannot agree on any matter, the view 

of the majority shall prevail. 

16.10.9 The Panel shall not be required to give reasons for any determination. 

16.10.10 The Panel’s determination shall be final and binding upon the Club and 

the Member (subject only to Rule 16.10.11) and there shall be no right 

of appeal from such determination. 

16.10.11 If the Panel makes a determination on an issue referred to in Rule 

16.10.2.ii or iii the Board or the Member may refer the issue back to the 

Panel, notwithstanding Rule 16.10.10, if it considers that the position has 

materially changed since the Panel made its determination. 

16.10.12 The costs of the Panel shall be paid by the Club. 

16.10.13 Costs, indemnities and other sums payable to the Panel by the Club in 

relation to any Overspill Claim, whether the reference to the Panel has 

been made under this Rule 16.10 or under the Pooling Agreement, shall 

be deemed to be costs properly incurred by the Club in respect of that 

Overspill Claim for the purposes specified in Rule 16.9.2.i.

General Exceptions 

Risks covered by hull policies, etc. 

17.1 Unless and to the extent that the Managers shall have otherwise agreed 

in writing as a term of entry there shall be no recovery from the Club in 

respect of any liability, loss, cost or expense against which the member 

would have been insured if at the time of the incident giving rise to that 

liability, loss, cost or expense the entered ship had been fully insured for 

its proper value under hull policies on terms equivalent to those of the 

Lloyds Marine Policy MAR Form 1.1.82 with the Institute Time 

Clauses (Hulls) 1.10.83 (including the three quarter collision liability 

clause) attached. 

Exclusion of war risks 

17.2 Unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Managers and specified in 

the Certificate of Entry, there shall be no recovery from the Club in 

respect of any liabilities, costs or expenses (irrespective of whether a 

contributory cause of the same being incurred was any neglect on the 

part of the Members or on the part of the Members’ servants or agents) 

when the loss or damage, injury, illness or death or other accident in 

respect of which such liability arises or cost or expense is incurred, was 

caused by:

therefrom, or any hostile act by or against a belligerent power; 

(ii) capture, seizure, arrest, restraint or detainment (barratry and piracy 

excepted) and the consequences thereof or any attempt thereat;

apply to liabilities, costs and expenses which arise solely by reason of: 

(iii.a) the transport of any such weapons whether on board the entered 

ship or not; or 

(iii.b) the use of any such weapons, either as a result of Government 

order or through compliance with a written direction given by the 

Managers or the Board, where the reason for such use was the avoidance 

or mitigation of liabilities, costs or expenses which would otherwise fall 

within the cover given by the Club.

Other insurances 

17.3 Where a Member is insured elsewhere in any manner whatsoever against 

any of the liabilities, costs or expenses enumerated which would 

otherwise have been recoverable under these Rules, no contribution shall 

be made by the Club to such liabilities, costs or expenses, on the basis of 

double insurance or otherwise, to the extent to which the Member is so 

insured; nevertheless, with the approval of the Board, a Member may be 

insured by special agreement with the Club made either directly with 

himself or with other insurers upon the terms that certain liabilities, costs 

or expenses shall be borne by the Club notwithstanding such other 

insurance.

of the OECD Paris Convention on Carriage of Nuclear Material.“Excepted 

matter” is nuclear matter consisting only of one or more of the following: 

(i) isotopes prepared for use for industrial, commercial, agricultural, medical or 

scientific purposes; 

39

all the circumstances, shall be of the opinion that the carriage, trade or 

voyage was imprudent, unsafe, unduly hazardous or improper.

agreed in writing with the Managers and specified in the certificate of 

entry, with costs and expenses incidental thereto: 


(i) the liability is not recoverable under the collision liability clause 

contained in the hull policies of the entered ship and, 

(ii) the liability, with costs and expenses are those which would have been 

covered under the usual form of Lloyd’s policy with the institute time 

clauses (hulls) attached or other form of hull policies on the entered ship 

provided such other policies have previously been approved by the 


20.11.2 Collision liability with costs and expenses incidental thereto relating to: 

(i) the costs, charges and expenses of or incidental to raising, removal, 

destruction, lighting or marking of wrecks, cargoes or other property. 

(ii) damage done by such other ship to any harbour, dock, pier, jetty or

being or having been carried in the entered ship). 

20.12 That part of collision liability with costs and expenses incidental thereto 

which exceeds the sum recoverable under the hull policies of the entered 

ship solely by reason of the fact that the liability, costs and expenses 

exceeds the valuation of the ship in those policies; 


(i) the Board may for the purpose of assessing any sum recoverable under 

paragraph 12 of this rule determine the proper value which the entered 

ship should have been insured under the hull policies, and the Club shall 

pay only the excess (if any) of the amount which would have been 

recoverable under the hull polices if the entered ship had been insured 

thereunder at such value. For the purposes of this Rule the ‘proper value’ 

shall mean the market value of the ship without commitment; 

(ii) the Managers shall have power, but shall not be bound, at the request of 

49 

3

50 

the member to agree for the purpose of this Rule, the proper value at 

which an entered ship shall be insured for the current year but the 

agreement of a limit of liability for cover under paragraph 11.1 of this 

Rule by reference to the value of the ship shall not constitute any 

agreement by the Club that such value is a proper value of the ship and 

the Board may determine the proper value at which the ship should have 

been insured; 

(iii) unless otherwise agreed at the time of entry, a Member shall not be 

entitled to recover from the Club any excess, franchise or deductible 

borne by him under the hull policies; 

(iv) if a claim arises under this rule upon a collision involving two ships 

belonging to the same Member, he shall be entitled to recover from the 

Club and the Club shall have the same rights, as if the ships had 

belonged to different owners; 

(v) if both ships are to blame, then unless the liability of the owners of one 

or both of them becomes limited by law, claims under this Rule shall be 

settled upon the principle of cross-liabilities, as if the owner of each ship 

had been compelled to pay the owner of the other ship 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 former in 

consequence of the collision; 

(vi) there shall be no recovery from the Club under paragraph 12 of this 

Rule insofar as the collision liability, with costs and expenses incidental 

thereto, is not recoverable under the hull policies by reason of a breach 

or breaches of any term, warranty or condition of such policies. 

Note:When considering the proper value for which an entered ship should be 

insured or deemed to be insured for the purposes of claims under paragraph 12, 

the Board will require to be satisfied that the hull and/or excess liability policies 

of the Member concerned have been kept under regular review as market 

conditions may require, so that the total liability coverage contained in those 

policies is maintained at levels approximating to the market value of the ship 

without commitment. 

In the light of the above, Members are recommended to consult their brokers 

and/or ship valuers to assess the proper amount for which insurances should be 

effected. 

Damage to property (otherwise than by pollution) 

20.13.1 Loss of or damage to or for interference with rights in relation to any

harbour, dock, pier, jetty, land or any fixed or moveable thing whatsoever,

of the negligent navigation or management of an entered ship or other 

negligent act or omission on board or in relation to an entered ship.

owners or operators (including port and dock authorities) of any dock or 

drydock; 


(i) the terms of the indemnity shall have been approved by the Managers, 

and that the Board shall have power at any time to prohibit any such 

indemnity or form of indemnity for use at any particular port or place; 

(ii) if a claim is made on the Club under paragraph 13 of this Rule upon 

loss of or damage to any property or object belonging to the Member in 

respect of whose entered ship the claim arose, the Member shall be 

entitled to recover from the Club and the Club shall have the same

the extent only that such loss or damage is not recoverable under any 

other insurance upon the said property or object.

(including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, those 

specified above);

paragraph 14.7 of this Rule shall have arisen either under statute or

under the general law or under an agreement the terms of which shall 

have been approved by the Managers prior to the relevant casualty or 

incident and the Member shall have undertaken to pay such additional 

calls or contributions as may be required by the Club; 

(iii) without prejudice to the terms, limitations and provisions applicable to 

this paragraph 14 of this Rule the liability of the Club under subparagraph

18.3 of this Rule; 

(iv) In the event of any legislation coming into force anywhere in the world 

during the currency of entry affecting the Member’s liabilities for 

pollution by oil or any other substance, the Club shall have the right to 

increase the Member’s rate of contribution, or to charge an additional 

premium. 

(v) Unless the Board in its discretion shall otherwise determine, there shall 

be no recovery under paragraph 14 of this Rule in respect of any 

liabilities, costs and expenses which but for the terms of any charter or 

contract of carriage would have been allowed in general average adjusted 

under the unamended York Antwerp Rules 1994. 

Note:The Board has determined that in addition to any other limitations of cover 

contained in the Rules or set out in the Certificate of Entry the limitations of 

cover set out below shall apply to Owner’s Entries from 20th February 2001. 

Relevant limitations for Charterer’s Entries are set out in the note to Rule 16.3. 

(i) The provisions of paragraph i of the note to Rule 16.3 shall apply to this note. 

(ii) The aggregate liability of the Club for all claims in respect of oil pollution under 

Rule 20.14 arising in respect of charterers insured as Joint Entrants or Coassureds 

under an Owner’s Entry shall be limited to U.S.$100 million in excess 

of the limitation amount (if any). 

(iii) The aggregate liability of the Club for all claims in respect of oil pollution arising 

under any one Owner’s entry shall be limited to U.S.$1 billion any one event. 

(iv) In the event that there is more than one Owner’s Entry in respect of the same 

ship with the Club and/or with any other insurer which participates in the 

Pooling Agreement, the aggregate recovery in respect of all oil pollution claims 

arising under such Owner’s Entries shall not exceed U.S.$1 billion any one 

event, and the liability of the Club under each such Owner’s Entry shall be 

limited to such proportion of U.S.$1 billion as the claims arising under that 

Owner’s Entry bear to the aggregate of all such claims recoverable from the Club 

and any such other insurer. 

53

54 

(v) When a ship entered under an Owner’s Entry provides salvage or other assistance 

to another vessel following a casualty, all claims for oil pollution howsoever arising 

incurred by the entered ship in respect of oil pollution shall be aggregated with all 

claims incurred in respect of oil pollution by any other ships whilst engaged in 

providing salvage or other assistance in connection with the same casualty, when 

and to the extent that those ships either: 

(v.a) are entered under Owner’s Entries in the Club and covered for the oil 

pollution risks set out in Rule 20.14; or 

(v.b) are covered for those risks under Owner’s Entries with any other Club which 

participates in the Pooling Agreement. 

In such circumstances the limit of liability of the Club in respect of the entered 

ship shall be such proportion of U.S.$1 billion as the said claims for oil pollution 

incurred by the entered ship bear to the aggregate of all claims in respect of oil 

pollution of all such other ships in connection with the said casualty. 

(vi) If the total amount of any oil pollution claim against a member to which this 

Rule 20.14 applies, exceeds a sum equal to the Club’s limit or limitation for oil 

pollution claims, as determined by the Directors in accordance with the note to this 

Rule, the Club will not be liable to make any payment in respect of that amount 

by which any such claim exceeds the sum equal to the limit aforesaid. 

Damage caused other than by collision 

20.15 Liability for loss of or damage to, or delay to, or wreck removal of, any 

other ship or any property therein (and costs and expenses incidental 

thereto) occasioned otherwise than by collision with the entered ship 

and arising out of the negligent navigation or management of the 

entered ship or other negligent act or omission on board of or in relation 

to the entered ship. If a claim arises under paragraph 15 of this Rule 

upon loss of or damage to any other ship belonging to the Member, in 

respect of whose entered ship the claim arose, the Member shall be 

entitled to recover from the Club, and the Club shall have the same 

rights, as if the ship lost or damaged, had belonged to a third party, but to 

the extent only that such loss or damage is not recoverable under any 

other insurance upon such ship. 

Damage arising out of the carriage of cargo 

20.15.A Liability of a Member for loss of or damage to any fixed or moveable 

property whatsoever (other than any cargo carried or intended to be 

carried by or on behalf of the Member or any container owned, hired or

used by the Member) arising out of the carriage of any cargo or 

container by or on behalf of the Member. 



carried on an entered ship; and 

(ii) a Member shall not be entitled to be reimbursed by the Club in respect 

of any liability which would not have arisen but for the terms of any 

contract or indemnity made or given by the Member, unless the terms of 

the relevant contract or indemnity shall have been approved by the 




Towage of an entered ship 

20.16.1 Loss or damage arising out of or during the course of customary towage 

of an entered ship in the ordinary course of trading for which the 

Member may become liable under the terms of the towage or other 

contract but only to the extent to which such liability is not recoverable 

under the hull policies; 


(i) the expression “customary towage” shall mean either: 

(i.a) towage for the purpose of entering or leaving a port, or 

manoeuvring within a port, during the ordinary course of trading; or 

(i.b) the towage of such entered ships (e.g. barges) as are habitually towed 

in the ordinary course of their trading from port to port or from place to 

place; 

(ii) as to any other towage of an entered ship other than customary towage 

as defined in (i) above, the Managers shall have the power to grant special 

cover in respect thereof on such terms as the Managers may think fit; 

PROVIDED THAT the nature of the proposed towage and the terms of 

the proposed contract shall have been disclosed to and approved by the 

Managers in writing; 

(iii) the Board may reject or reduce a claim arising out of or during the 

course of customary towage if it decides that it was unreasonable, having 

regard to all the circumstances of the case, to perform the particular 

towage or to enter into the particular contract of towage or if in its 

55 

3

56 

opinion the particular contract of towage should reasonably have 

provided that the relevant risks and liabilities did not fall upon the owner 

of the tow. 

Towage by an entered ship 

20.16.2 Liability which a Member may incur, together with costs and expenses 

incidental thereto, under the terms of a contract for, or arising out of, the 

towage by an entered ship of any ship or object. 


(i) such liability relates to the risks specified in the other paragraphs of this 

Rule 20 and also fulfils the requirements of this paragraph 16.2; 

(ii) an entered ship specially designed or converted for the purpose of 

towage shall have been declared as such to the Managers at the time of 

entry or at the time of conversion for the purpose of towage; 

(iii) the towage contract has been approved by the Managers in writing prior 

to the commencement of the tow and the Member has paid or agreed to 

pay such additional Call or premium as may be required by the Club; or 

(iv) the Board in its discretion shall having regard to all the circumstances, 

consider the terms of the towage contract or the circumstances of the 

towage as reasonable and the liability as coming within the scope of the 

cover afforded by the Club; 

(v) that notwithstanding anything provided in this paragraph 16.2 or 

elsewhere in these Rules, there shall be no recovery by a Member in 

respect of liability for loss of, or damage to, or wreck removal of, a towed 

ship or object and/or its cargo or other property, whether such liability 

arises under the terms of the contract or otherwise, unless the Managers 

have agreed in writing to cover such liability. 

Note:The Managers will normally approve contracts which are made on or 

incorporate the following terms and conditions: 

(i) towage contracts 

(i.a) the United Kingdom or Netherlands standard towage conditions or other 

similar conditions, or Scandinavian standard towage conditions, for harbour towage 

only; 

(i.b) Towcon and Towhire; 

(i.c) Lloyd’s standard form of salvage agreement – no cure no pay – we add the 

words for salvage situations:

PROVIDED THAT the terms or conditions referred to in (i.a), (i.b) and (i.c) 

above are not amended so as to increase the liability of the entered ship; 

(i.d) a term as between the Member on the one part, and the owner of the tow 

and the owners of any cargo or other property on board the tow on the other part, 

that each shall be responsible for any loss or damage to his own ship, cargo or 

property without any recourse whatsoever against the other (a knock-for-knock 

clause). 

If the contract is likely to be subject to consideration by the United States Courts, 

it shall also require the Member to be named as an additional insured on the 

tow’s hull insurance and that hull insurance should contain a waiver of 

subrogation against the Member. 

(i.e) in addition, the Member will normally be covered where the towage or 

attempt thereat is made for the purpose of saving or attempting to save life or 

property at sea. 

(ii) supply boat charters 

If the tug is working under a time charter and there is no contract between the 

tugowner and the owner of the tow, then liability for loss of or damage to, or wreck 

removal of, a towed object and/or property on board shall only be covered provided 

the Managers have approved in writing the charter which in their opinion 

contains: 

(ii.a) a knock-for-knock clause as above covering the property of sub-contractors of 

the charterers as well as the property of the charterers themselves; or 

(ii.b) a separate clause requiring that all towage can be carried out on terms no 

worse than knock-for-knock. 

Liability arising under contracts for hire of cranes, lighters or other loading 

and discharging appliances 

20.17 Loss or damage for which a Member may become liable under the terms 

of an indemnity given by him to the owners or operators of floating 

cranes or lighters or other appliances or craft used during the operations 

of loading or discharging an entered ship or for carrying passengers, 

members of the crew or other authorised persons to or from an entered 

ship; including liability for loss of life or personal injury, but excluding 

liability for any cargo or other property intended to be or being or 

having been carried in the entered ship. 

57 

3

58 


The terms of the indemnity shall have been approved by the Managers, 

and that the Board shall have power at any time to prohibit any such 

indemnity or form of indemnity for use at any particular port or place or 

in any particular trade. 

Wreck liabilities 

20.18.1 Costs and expenses of or incidental to the raising, removal, destruction, 

lighting or marking of the wreck of an entered ship. 

20.18.2 Liabilities incurred by a Member as the result of the raising, removal or 

destruction of the wreck of an entered ship or any attempt thereat. 

20.18.3 Liabilities incurred by a Member as the result of the presence or 

involuntary shifting of the wreck of an entered ship. 

20.18.4 Liabilities incurred, including costs and expenses of or incidental to the 

raising, removal, destruction or otherwise disposing of cargo which is 

being carried or has been carried on an entered ship; 


(i) in relation to paragraphs 18.1, 2 and 3 of this Rule 

(i.a) the entered ship became a wreck as the result of a casualty or event 

occurring during the period of that ship’s entry in the Club; and 

(i.b) no sum shall be recoverable from the Club under paragraph 18 of 

this Rule if the Member shall, without the consent of the Managers in 

writing, have transferred his interest in the wreck otherwise than by 

abandonment, at any time after the entered ship shall have become a 

wreck. 

(ii) in relation to paragraph 18.1 of this Rule 

(ii.a) the raising, removal, destruction, lighting or marking of the wreck 

was compulsory by law, or the costs thereof were legally recoverable from 

the Member by virtue of a contract or indemnity previously approved by 

the Managers in writing; and 

(ii.b) the value of all stores and materials saved, as well as the wreck itself, 

shall first be deducted from such costs and expenses and only the balance 

thereof, if any, shall be recoverable from the Club. 

(iii) in relation to paragraph 18.2 of this Rule 

(iii.a) the raising, removal or destruction of the wreck was compulsory by

law or the Member was legally liable to carry out the same by virtue of a 

contract or indemnity previously approved by the Managers in writing; 

and 

(iii.b) unless the Board in its discretion shall otherwise determine, a 

Member shall not be entitled to be reimbursed by the Club in respect of 

any liability unless (i) the Member has taken such measures as were 

reasonable to raise, remove or destroy the wreck; (ii) the Member has 

employed independent contractors to perform the relevant operations 

and has taken such measures as were reasonable to provide that under the 

terms of the contract the risk of incurring the relevant liabilities fell 

upon the contractors and (iii) those contractors effected such insurance as 

was reasonable to insure themselves against such risks. No liabilities 

insured under a contractor’s policy shall be recoverable from the Club. 

(iv) in relation to paragraph 18.3 of this Rule 

(iv.a) the liability was caused by the casualty or event which led to the 

loss of the entered ship; 

(iv.b) unless the Board in its discretion shall otherwise determine, a 


any liability unless the Member shall have taken measures as were 

reasonable to raise, remove, destroy, light or mark the wreck; and 

(iv.c) unless the Board in its discretion shall otherwise determine, a 


any liability incurred more than two years after the entered ship became 

a wreck. 

(v) in relation to paragraph 18.4 of this Rule 

(v.a) the raising, removal, destruction or disposal of the cargo was 

compulsory by law or the Member was legally liable to carry out the 

same by virtue of a contract or indemnity previously approved by the 

Managers in writing; and 

(v.b) unless the Board in its discretion shall otherwise determine, a 


any liability unless the Member has taken such measures as were 

reasonable to raise, remove, destroy or otherwise dispose of the cargo; and 

(v.c) the value of all cargo saved which accrues to the Members shall first 

be deducted from such costs and expenses and only the balance thereof, 

if any, shall be recoverable from the Club.

Quarantine expenses 

20.19 Quarantine expenses and extraordinary expenses incidental to the 

outbreak of infectious or contagious disease upon an entered ship 

incurred for or by way of: 

(i) the disinfection of the entered vessel or of persons on board her under 

quarantine or public health enactments, regulations or orders, including 

the cost of taking in fuel in quarantine, and of loading and discharging 

cargo and of the victualling of the crew and passengers after deducting 

the ordinary expenses of loading, discharging and victualling; 

(ii) fuel consumed or towage in proceeding to and from and lying at a 

special station or place in accordance with such enactments, regulations 

or orders; 

(iii) expenses directly consequent upon bearing up for, or putting into a port 

or place of refuge and resuming the voyage thereafter by reason solely of 

the outbreak of infectious or contagious disease upon an entered ship. 


There shall be no recovery under paragraph 19 of this Rule if the 

entered ship at the time such expenses were incurred was chartered to 

proceed to or was under orders from the Member or her managers to 

proceed to a port at which it was known or should in the determination 

of the Board have reasonably been anticipated at the time of the charter 

or orders that she would be quarantined. 

20.19.A Expenses necessarily incurred by a Member by way of: 

(i) the disinfection of any cargo or container under quarantine or public 

health enactments, regulations or orders, including the cost of 

transporting any cargo or container to any place for the purpose of 

enabling such disinfection to be carried out and the cost of discharging 

cargo from any container in order to enable such disinfection to be 

carried out and of subsequently reloading the cargo into such container; 

or 

(ii) expenses otherwise directly consequent upon compliance by a Member 

with any quarantine or public health enactment, regulations or orders 

and incurred in connection with any cargo or container carried by or on 

behalf of a Member after deducting the ordinary expenses which would 

have been incurred by the Member in any event apart from the outbreak 

of disease or the application of such enactments, regulations or orders.



carried on an entered ship; and 

(ii) unless the Board in its discretion shall otherwise determine, a Member 

shall not be entitled to recover any of the above expenses from the Club 

if he is entitled to be paid the same by any other party. 



Liability for loss or shortage of cargo or other property 

20.20 Loss of cargo or other property intended to be, or being, or having been 

carried in, on or by an entered ship arising out of any breach by the 

Member, or by any person for whose acts, neglect or default he may be 

legally liable, of his obligation or duty as a carrier by sea properly to load, 

handle, stow, carry, keep, care for, discharge and deliver such cargo or 

property, or out of unseaworthiness or unfitness of the entered ship. 

Liability for damage to or responsibility in respect of cargo or 

other property 

20.21.1 Damage to or responsibility in respect of cargo or other property 

intended to be or being or having been carried in, on or by an entered 

ship arising out of any breach by the Member, or by any person for 

whose acts, neglect or default he may be legally liable, of his obligation 

or duty as a carrier by sea properly to load, handle, stow, carry, keep, care 

for, discharge and deliver such cargo or property, or out of 

unseaworthiness or unfitness of the entered ship. 

Under this paragraph a Member shall be entitled also to recover the extra 

cost incurred directly in the actual discharge or disposal of damaged or 

worthless cargo, provided that the Member has no recourse to recover 

such cost from any other party and has either incurred such cost himself 

or is liable for such cost. Such extra cost does not include the running 

costs of the vessel or any costs of diversion, delay or detention. 

20.21.2 Loss of or damage to or responsibility in respect of cargo or other 

property being carried by means of transport other than the entered ship, 

for which the member may be liable under a through or transhipment 

bill of lading, or other form of contract of carriage issued for a carriage 

partly to be performed by the entered ship or carried under a combined 

transport bill of lading or other similar document. 

61 

3

62 

Note: If insurance is required under the above paragraph it must first be 

specifically agreed in writing with the Managers and specified in the Certificate of 

Entry. 

20.21.3 Loss of or damage to or responsibility in respect of cargo or other 

property for which the member may become liable under the terms of a 

contract with or in respect of an indemnity given by him to the owners 

or operators of floating cranes or lighters or other appliances or craft 

used during the operations of loading or discharging or forwarding cargo 

in or from an entered ship, or to persons responsible for the custody of 

cargo to be loaded in or having been discharged from an entered ship, 

PROVIDED THAT the terms of the contract or the indemnity have first 

been approved by the Managers, and the Board shall have power at any 

time to prohibit any such contract or indemnity or form of indemnity 

for use at any particular port or place or in any particular trade. 

20.21.4 Liabilities incurred as a slot or space charterer of the entered ship to 

other cargoes carried in the entered ship, provided that the terms of the 

charter have first been approved in writing by the Managers. 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT in relation to paragraphs 20 and 21 of this 

Rule: 

(i) There shall be no recovery from the Club in relation to claims arising 

under paragraphs 20 and 21 of this Rule if the contract of carriage under 

which any cargo is carried is not subject to the provisions of the Hague 

Rules or Hague-Visby Rules or to equally wide exemptions of the 

carrier from liability (save where the contract of carriage is on such 

terms solely by reason of the incorporation by operation of law of the 

Hamburg Rules, or parts thereof) unless; 

(a) The terms of the contract of carriage have been approved in advance 

by the Managers in their discretion and the member has paid or agreed 

to pay such additional call or premium, if any, as may be required by the 

Club; or 

(b) The Board in its discretion, having regard to all the circumstances, 

considers the terms of the contract of carriage as reasonable. 

(ii) A Member shall not be entitled to recover from the Club any liabilities, 

costs or expenses arising out of the carriage of specie, bullion, precious or 

rare metals or stone, plate or other objects of a rare or precious nature, 

bank notes or other forms of currency, bonds or other negotiable 

instruments, whether carried as cargo or as passengers’ baggage or as 

crew’s effects and whether the value is declared or not unless (i) the

Managers have been notified by the Member prior to any such carriage 

and (ii) the Member has complied with any directions made by the 

Managers in relation thereto and (iii) the Member shall have given to the 

Managers such particulars as the Managers may require to enable them 

to decide whether or not they require the Member specially to insure his 

liability for the safe carriage of the cargo under the bill(s) of lading. In 

the event of the Managers requiring special insurance to be arranged, 

they may agree on behalf of the Club that the Club will bear the whole 

or part of the cost thereof, or they may require the Member to do so, 

subject if necessary to subsequent ratification by the Board; 

(iii) The Board may at any time require to be satisfied as to the spaces, plant 

and apparatus, and means used for the carriage of refrigerated cargo in an 

entered ship, the instructions given to those on board, and the terms of 

the contract of carriage under which the same is to be carried, and the 

Member shall upon such request supply the relevant information to the 

Managers. If in this event the Board withholds its approval and so notifies 

the Member in writing, he shall not be entitled to recover from the Club 

in respect of any loss of or damage to such refrigerated cargo carried 

upon a voyage which began after the receipt by him of such notice; 

Note:The Board will not normally require to be satisfied upon the matters 

specified in proviso iii to paragraph 20 and 21 of this Rule in the case of ships 

owned by lines long established in refrigerated trades and of which the Board has 

satisfactory experience; but if the Board does require to investigate the fitness of a 

particular ship to carry refrigerated cargo, its approval of the refrigerated spaces, 

plant and apparatus is usually conditional in any event upon regular inspection by 

Classification Society Surveyors. 

(iv) If the cargo in respect of which a claim is made on the Club under 

paragraphs 20 and 21 of this Rule is the property of the Member, the 

Member shall be entitled to recover such liabilities, costs and expenses as 

would have been recoverable if that property belonged to a third party 

and that third party had concluded a contract of carriage with the 

Member; 

(v) There shall be no recovery from the Club in respect of liabilities, costs 

and expenses which arise out of or which are incurred as a consequence 

of a deviation, which includes but is not limited to a geographical 

departure or any other departure from the contractually agreed voyage or 

adventure, by reason of which the Member may be deprived of the right 

to rely on defences or rights of limitation which would otherwise have 

been available to him to reduce or eliminate his liability, unless (i) in the 

case of deviation authorised by the Member, prior notice of the intended 

63 

3

64 

deviation has been given to the Managers or (ii) in the case of a 

deviation without the Member’s authority, the earliest possible notice has 

been given to the Managers after the Member has received information 

thereof and (iii) in either case the Managers have confirmed to the 

Member in writing that his cover under this Rule continues 

unprejudiced. Nevertheless, the Board shall have power to authorise the 

payment by the Club of such a claim in whole or in part if in its 

discretion it considers that, having regard to all the circumstances of the 

case, the Member should be excused for failure to give such notice; 

Note: If the Contract of Carriage contains a Voyage Clause approved by the 

Board the necessity of effecting a special insurance may in certain cases be avoided, 

in the discretion of the Managers. 

(vi) unless the Board in its discretion otherwise determines there shall be no 

recovery under paragraphs 20 and 21 of this Rule in respect of a 

Member’s liability: 

(vi.a) arising out of the discharge of cargo at a port or place other than 

that stipulated in the contract of carriage; 

(vi.b) arising out of the failure to arrive or late arrival of the entered ship 

at a port of loading, or out of the failure to load any particular cargo or 

cargoes in the entered ship otherwise than under a bill of lading already 

issued; 

(vi.c) arising out of delivery of cargo carried under a negotiable bill of 

lading or similar document of title without production of that bill of 

lading or document by the person to whom delivery is made except 

where the cargo has been carried on the entered ship under the terms of 

a non-negotiable bill of lading, waybill or other non-negotiable 

document, and has been properly delivered as required by that 

document, notwithstanding that the Member may be liable under the 

terms of a negotiable bill of lading or other similar document of title 

issued by or on behalf of a party other than the Member providing for 

carriage in part upon the entered ship and in part upon another vessel; 

(vi.d) arising out of the issue of an ante-dated or post-dated bill of 

lading, waybill or other document containing or evidencing the contract 

of carriage recording the loading or shipment or receipt for shipment on 

a date prior or subsequent to the date on which the cargo was in fact 

loaded, shipped or received as the case may be; 

(vi.e) arising out of a bill of lading, waybill or other document

containing or evidencing the contract of carriage issued with the 

knowledge of the Member or his Master with an incorrect description of 

the cargo or its quantity or its condition; 

(vi.f ) for loss of, damage to or responsibility in respect of cargo carried 

on deck unless either: 

(i) the cargo is carried under a contract of carriage which permits the 

cargo to be carried on deck, states that the cargo is being carried on 

deck and exonerates the Member from all liability in respect of such 

cargo; or 

(ii) such carriage has been approved by the Managers in writing. 

(vi.g) arising out of the arrest or detention of the ship pursuant to a 

claim against the Member, liability for which is not the subject of cover 

under these Rules; 

(vi.h) for goods carried under an ad valorem bill of lading where the 

value per unit, piece or package has been stated to be in excess of 

U.S.$2,500. 

Collision liability to cargo carried in an entered ship 

20.22 Loss of or damage to cargo or other property being carried in an entered 

ship arising out of collision between the entered ship and another ship 

against which the Member of the entered ship is liable by law to 

indemnify the owner or charterer of such other ship. 

If the cargo carried in the entered ship is the property of the Member, 

such cargo shall be deemed to be fully insured under policies on terms 

not less wide than those of the usual Lloyd’s Marine Policy MAR 1.1.82 

with Institute Cargo Clauses (C) attached, and the Member shall be 

entitled only to recover from the Club the amount, if any, by which such 

indemnity exceeds the sum recoverable under such insurance. 

Note: Provided that the contract of carriage contains the usual exemption of the 

carrier from liability for the negligent navigation or management of the entered 

ship, the indemnity specified in paragraph 22 of this Rule can only arise if 

responsibility for the collision is determined under the laws of a country which has 

not adopted the International Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules to 

govern the Liability of Vessels when collisions occur between them, signed at 

Brussels, 1910, which is incorporated in the law of England by The Maritime 

Conventions Act, 1911. 

65

66 

Cargo’s proportion of General Average 

20.23 Cargo’s proportion of General Average, including special charges or 

salvage, which is not legally recoverable solely by reason of a breach of 

the contract of carriage; 


(i) if the cargo’s proportion is irrecoverable by reason of a deviation, the 

terms of Rule 20.21 proviso v shall likewise apply to any claim under 

Rule 20.23; 

(ii) the Board may reject or reduce a claim under paragraph 23 of this Rule 

if the contract of carriage under which the cargo concerned was being 

carried did not contain as part of its terms the provisions of Article IV 

Rule (2)(a) of the International Convention for the Unification of 

Certain Rules relating to Bills of Lading, signed at Brussels on the 25th 

August, 1924, known as “The Hague Rules”, as amended by the 

Protocol to that Convention, signed at Brussels on the 23rd February, 

1968, and known as “The Hague/Visby Rules”, (or an equally wide 

exemption from liability, whereby neither the carrier nor the ship is 

liable for loss or damage arising or resulting from the act, neglect, or 

default of the master, mariners, pilot or the servants of the carrier in the 

navigation or management of the ship). 

Ship’s proportion of General Average 

20.24 Ship’s proportion of General Average, special charges or Salvage not 

recoverable under the hull policies by reason of the value of the entered 

ship being assessed for contribution to General Average or Salvage at a 

sound value in excess of the insured value under the hull policies; 


(i) the Board may, for the purpose of assessing any sum recoverable under 

paragraph 24 of this Rule, determine the proper value at which the 

entered ship should have been insured under the hull policies, and the 

Club shall pay only the amount, if any, of the Ship’s proportion of 

General Average which would not have been recoverable under the hull 

policies, even if the ship had been insured thereunder at such value. For 

the purpose of paragraph 24 of this Rule, the “proper value” shall mean 

the market value of the ship without commitment; 

(ii) the Managers shall have power, but shall not be bound, at the request of a 

Member to agree for the purpose of paragraph 24 of this Rule, the 

proper value at which an entered ship should be protected and

indemnified for the current year but the agreement of a limit of liability 

for cover under paragraph 11.2 of this Rule by reference to the value of 

the ship shall not constitute any agreement by the Club that such value is 

the proper value of the ship and the Board may determine the proper 

value for which the ship should have been insured. 

Note:When considering the proper value for which an entered ship should be 

insured or deemed to be insured for the purposes of claims under paragraph 24, 

the Board will require to be satisfied that the hull and/or excess liability policies 

of the Member concerned have been kept under regular review as market 

conditions may require, so that the total liability coverage contained in those 

policies is maintained at levels approximating to the market value of the ship

writing with the Managers and specified in the Certificate of Entry. It provides 

supplementary cover under which the member can recover in respect of the 

liabilities falling within the standard risk rules under Rule 20 where such

the standard risk rules and which cannot, therefore, be recovered under the 

member’s cover for standard risks. 

Special cover for salvors 

20.36.1 Liabilities, costs and expenses which a Member, being a professional 

salvor, may incur arising out of salvage operations performed or to be 

performed by the Member and which arise out of the operation of and 

in respect of the Member’s interest in the entered ship where the ship is 

a salvage tug or other ship intended to be used in salvage operations, but

Managers and on such terms as the Managers may think fit. 

PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT such liabilities, costs and expenses relate to 

the risks specified in the other paragraphs of this Rule 20.

where cover is given on the terms that the liabilities need not arise in 

respect of any entered ship or out of the operation of any entered ship 

provided always that they arise in connection with the Member’s business 

as a professional salvor, but always excluding liability, if any, assumed 

under contract where such liability would not have arisen but for the 

existence of such a contract (but not excluding liability assumed by

contract in respect of sub contractors’ tortious and/or statutory liability), 

and provided always that in respect of any claim arising under this subparagraph 

cover shall be limited to such sum or sums as from time to 

time shall be determined by the Club. 

Note: cover under this paragraph is currently limited to U.S.$100 million any 

one salvage operation. 

20.36.3 The cover referred to in sub-paragraph 1 of this Rule 20.36, with the 

exception of cover in respect of oil pollution liabilities, may be given on 

terms that the liabilities, costs and expenses need not arise in respect of 

any entered ship or out of the operation of any entered ship provided 

always that they arise in connection with the Member’s business as a 

professional salvor. 


(i) cover under sub-paragraph 36.3 shall not be effective until and to the 

extent that the Managers arrange reinsurance in respect of the cover and 

the Member shall be entitled to recover from the funds of the 

Association only the net amount actually recovered under such 

reinsurance arrangements together with that portion, if any, of the risk or 

risks retained by the Association; 

(ii) it shall be a condition precedent of any insurance on the terms referred 

to in sub-paragraphs 36.2 and 36.3 of this Rule that the Member and 

any company which is a subsidiary or holding company of the Member 

or an associated company of the Member shall, at the time when the 

insurance is given, and thereafter within 30 days before the beginning of 

each Policy Year, apply to enter for insurance in the Club every ship 

intended to be used in connection with salvage operations of which it is 

then the owner or operator (on terms that every such application may be 

accepted in respect of such one or more ships as the Club in its 

discretion may determine).

first be specifically agreed in writing by the Managers and specified in the 

Certificate of Entry. 

Confiscation of ships by customs authorities 

20.37 Loss of an entered ship following confiscation of the ship by any legally 

empowered court, tribunal or authority by reason of the infringement of 

any customs law or customs regulation but only if and to the extent that, 

71 

3

72 

notwithstanding the terms of Rule 19.1, the Board in its discretion has 

authorised the payment, in whole or in part; 


(i) the amount recoverable from the Club shall under no circumstances 

exceed the market value of the ship without commitment at the date of 

the confiscation; 

(ii) the Member shall have satisfied the Board that he took such steps as 

appear to the Board to be reasonable to prevent the infringement of the 

customs law or regulation giving rise to the confiscation; 

(iii) any amount claimed under this Rule 20.37 shall be recoverable to such 

extent only as the Board in its discretion may determine without having 

to give any reasons for its decision; 

(iv) no such claim shall be considered by the Board until such time as the 

Member has been deprived of his interest in the entered ship. 

Liabilities arising under indemnities or contracts

ship;

the Managers and cover for the liabilities arising thereunder has been 

specifically agreed in writing by the Managers, and the Member has paid

shall not be entitled to any recovery from the Club in respect of any 

claim arising during a period when the Member is not fulfilling or has 

not fulfilled any conditions referred to in this Rule 21.1. 


Where the ship is entered solely by a charterer other than a demise or 

bareboat charterer the entitlement of that charterer to recovery from the

21.2 The Managers may, as a condition of acceptance or renewal of entry in 

the Club, require a Member to submit his ship to be surveyed by a

Managers of his intention to trade the ship.The Managers may then 

require a Member to submit that ship to be surveyed by a surveyor 

nominated by the Managers at the Member’s expense and any 

recommendations of the surveyor appointed under the provisions of this 

paragraph as to repairs or other actions to be taken by the Member must 

be carried out forthwith, or within such time as may be specified by the 

Managers, to the satisfaction of the Managers and their surveyor and no 

claim for recovery from the Club shall be allowed either (i) in respect of 

any incident whatsoever arising during the period when any such

any casualty, incident or other event which may give rise to a claim by 

the member upon the Club take such steps to protect its interest in 

75

76 

relation to date compliance as the Board in its sole discretion would 

expect an uninsured person acting reasonably in similar circumstances to 

take. For the purpose of this Rule ‘date compliance’ means, in relation to 

computers and other equipment or system for receiving, processing, 

storing or retrieving data, hardware, software, firmware and 

microprocessors and any equipment which contains or relies upon 

microprocessors, whether the property of the member or not, or the 

systems of a third party, that neither performance nor functionality is 

adversely affected, whether before or after any implemented or attempted

Board in its sole discretion may reject any claim by the member against 

the Club which relates in any way whatsoever whether arising directly or 

indirectly out of such breach or reduce the sum payable by the Club in 

respect thereof by such amount as the Board may determine. 

Obligation to sue and labour 

22 Upon the occurrence of any casualty, incident or other event which may 

give rise to a claim by a Member upon the Club, it shall be the duty of 

the Member and his agents to take and continue to take such measures as 

may be reasonable for the purpose of averting or minimising any loss, 

damage, expense or liability in respect whereof he may be insured by the 

Club. In the event that a Member commits any breach of this obligation, 

the Board may in its discretion reject any claim by the Member against 

the Club arising out of the casualty, incident or event, or reduce the sum 

payable by the Club in respect thereof by such amount as the Board may 

determine.

notify the Managers in writing of every casualty, incident or other event

Club.

by the Managers, promptly produce to the Club and/or allow the Club 

or its agents to inspect, copy or photograph, all relevant documents of 

whatsoever nature in his or his agents’ possession or power and shall 

further permit the Club or its agents to interview any servant, agent or 

other person who may have been employed by the Member at the 

material time or at any time thereafter or whom the Club may consider 

likely to have any direct or indirect knowledge of the matter or who 

may have been under a duty at any time to report to the Member in 

connection therewith. If any such person is required to appear and to 

give evidence at any hearing, trial or other proceedings relating to a 

matter referred to in paragraph 1 above, the Member will use his best 

endeavours to secure the appearance of that person. 

23.5 A Member must keep the Managers closely informed of the progress of, 

or any development in, any claim, event or matter which will or may

2 above the Club shall not be under any obligation to reimburse the

the Club, whether or not at the Member’s request, shall on demand pay 

to the Club a sum corresponding to the amount of such bail or other 

security whether or not such amount may be recoverable in whole or in 

part from the Club. 

25.3 In no case shall the Club be liable for the detention of an entered ship, 

or for any other detention or attachment of a Member’s funds or assets, 

or for any damage whatsoever caused to a Member by reason of the

persons to give advice or to produce to the Club any documents or

settlement of claims which shall be paid by the Club as the Board may 

determine in accordance with these Rules; but the Board shall have the 

power from time to time to authorise the Managers, without prior 

reference to the Board, to effect payment of claims of such types and up 

to such sums as the Board may determine. No member of the Board 

shall act as such in the settlement of any claim in which he is interested. 

Forbearance and Reimbursement 

28.1 No act, omission, course of dealing or forbearance and reimbursement by 

the Club of any kind whatsoever, and whensoever occurring, whether

all times and without notice be entitled to insist upon the strict 

application thereof.

prescribing the conditions or forms of contracts of carriage or the 

practice to be followed either generally or for use in connection with 

any particular cargo or cargoes or any particular trade or at any particular 

port or place. Upon the passing of any such regulation, of which notice 

shall be sent by the Managers to all the Members, it shall be deemed to 

be incorporated in these Rules, and every Member shall conform thereto 

in so far as the same may apply to the voyages performed by the ships 

entered by him or on his behalf in the Club, or to the trades in which 

they may be engaged: and, if any Member shall commit a breach of any 

regulation, the Board may reject or reduce any claim made by the 

Member to the extent to which it would not have arisen if he had 

complied with the regulation, and may further impose such terms upon 

him as they may think fit as a condition of the continuance of the entry 

of the Member’s ship or ships in the Club.

indemnify the carrier against all loss or liability to the other or noncarrying

the owners of the said goods and set off recouped or recovered by the 

other or non-carrying ship or her owners as part of their claim against

the crew any bonus or additional wages in respect of sailing into an area 

which is dangerous in the manner defined by the said terms, then such

may render the Vessel liable to confiscation as a contraband carrier; 

(e) to divert and call at any other port to change the crew or any part 

thereof or other persons on board the Vessel when there is reason to 

believe that they may be subject to internment, imprisonment or other 

sanctions.

Clause, the Owners shall refuse to proceed to the loading or discharging 

99 

6

100 

ports, or any one or more of them, they shall immediately inform the 

Charterers. No cargo shall be discharged at any alternative port without 

first giving the Charterers notice of the Owners’ intention to do so and 

requesting them to nominate a safe port for such discharge. Failing such 

nomination by the Charterers within 48 hours of the receipt of such 

notice and request, the Owners may discharge the cargo at any safe port 

of their own choice.

the Contract of Carriage, or any part of it, may expose, or is likely to 

expose, the Vessel, her cargo, crew or other persons on board the Vessel to 

War Risks, the Owners may give notice to the Charterers cancelling this 

Contract of Carriage, or may refuse to perform such part of it as may 

expose, or may be likely to expose, the Vessel, her cargo, crew or other 

persons on board the Vessel to War Risks; provided always that if this 

Contract of Carriage provides that loading or discharging is to take place 

within a range of ports, and at the port or ports nominated by the 

Charterers, the Vessel, her cargo, crew, or other persons onboard the Vessel 

may be exposed, or may be likely to be exposed, to War Risks, the 

Owners shall first require the Charterers to nominate any other safe port 

which lies within the range for loading or discharging, and may only 

cancel this Contract of Carriage if the Charterers shall not have 

nominated such safe port or ports within 48 hours of receipt of notice of 

such requirement. 

3 The Owners shall not be required to continue to load cargo for any 

voyage, or to sign Bills of Lading for any port or place, or to proceed or 

continue on any voyage, or on any part thereof, or to proceed through 

any canal or waterway, or to proceed to or remain at any port or place 

101

whatsoever, where it appears, either after the loading of the cargo 

commences, or at any stage of the voyage thereafter before the discharge 

of the cargo is completed, that, in the reasonable judgement of the 

Master and/or the Owners, the Vessel, her cargo (or any part thereof), 

crew or other persons on board the Vessel (or any one or more of them) 

may be, or are likely to be, exposed to War Risks. If it should so appear, 

the Owners may by notice request the Charterers to nominate a safe 

port for the discharge of the cargo or any part thereof, and if within 48 

hours of the receipt of such notice, the Charterers shall not have 

nominated such a port, the Owners may discharge the cargo at any safe 

port of their choice (including the port of loading) in complete 

fulfilment of the Contract of Carriage.The Owners shall be entitled to 

recover from the Charterers the extra expenses of such discharge and, if 

the discharge takes place at any port other than the loading port, to 

receive the full freight as though the cargo had been carried to the 

discharging port and if the extra distance exceeds 100 miles, to additional 

freight which shall be the same percentage of the freight contracted for 

as the percentage which the extra distance represents to the distance of 

the normal and customary route, the Owners having a lien on the cargo 

for such expenses and freight. 

4 If at any stage of the voyage after the loading of the cargo commences, it 

appears that, in the reasonable judgement of the Master and/or the 

Owners, the Vessel, her cargo, crew or other persons on board the Vessel 

may be, or are likely to be, exposed to War Risks on any part of the 

route (including any canal or waterway) which is normally and 

customarily used in a voyage of the nature contracted for, and there is 

another longer route to the discharging port, the Owners shall give 

notice to the Charterers that this route will be taken. In this event the 

Owners shall be entitled, if the total extra distance exceeds 100 miles, to 

additional freight which shall be the same percentage of the freight 

contracted for as the percentage which the extra distance represents to 

the distance of the normal and customary route. 

5 The Vessel shall have liberty: 

(a) to comply with all orders, directions, recommendations or advice as to 

departure, arrival, routes, sailing in convoy, ports of call, stoppages, 

destinations, discharge of cargo, delivery or in any way whatsoever which 

are given by the Government of the Nation under whose flag the Vessel 

sails, or other Government to whose laws the Owners are subject, or any 

other Government which so requires, or any body or group acting with

the power to compel compliance with their orders or directions; 

(b) to comply with the orders, directions or recommendations of any war 

risks underwriters who have the authority to give the same under the 

terms of the war risks insurance; 

(c) to comply with the terms of any resolution of the Security Council of 

the United Nations, any directives of the European Community, the 

effective orders of any other Supranational body which has the right to 

issue and give the same, and with national laws aimed at enforcing the 

same to which the Owners are subject, and to obey the orders and 

directions of those who are charged with their enforcement; 

(d) to discharge at any other port any cargo or part thereof which may 

render the Vessel liable to confiscation as a contraband carrier; 

(e) to call at any other port to change the crew or any part thereof or other 

persons on board the Vessel when there is reason to believe that they may 

be subject to internment, imprisonment or other sanctions; 

(f ) where cargo has not been loaded or has been discharged by the Owners 

under any provisions of this Clause, to load other cargo for the Owners’ 

own benefit and carry it to any other port or ports whatsoever, whether 

backwards or forwards or in a contrary direction to the ordinary or 

customary route 

6 If in compliance with any of the provisions of sub-clauses 2 to 5 of this 

Clause anything is done or not done, such shall not be deemed to be a 

deviation, but shall be considered as due fulfilment of the Contract of 

Carriage.

104 

War Cancellation Clause 

Either party may cancel this Charter Party on the outbreak of war or 

hostilities: 

(a) between any two or more of the following countries, the United States 

of America, Russia, the United Kingdom, France and the People’s 

Republic of China; or 

(b) between . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Hamburg Rules Clause to be incorporated into 

Time Charter Parties 

“Neither the Charterers nor their Agents shall permit the issue of any 

bill of lading, waybill or other document evidencing a contract of 

carriage (whether or not signed on behalf of the Owners or on the 

Charterers’ behalf or on behalf of any Sub-Charterers) incorporating, 

where not compulsorily applicable, the Hamburg Rules or any legislation 

giving effect to the Hamburg Rules or any other legislation imposing 

liabilities in excess of Hague or Hague/Visby Rules.The Charterers shall 

indemnify the Owners against any liability, loss or damage which may 

result from any breach of the foregoing provisions of this clause.’’

Delivery of cargo without production of 

the original bill of lading 

Liability arising from the delivery of cargo without production of the 

bills of lading is not recoverable under the Rules unless the Board in its 

discretion so decides. However, if members decide for commercal reasons 

to make such delivery but need to protect their position, they are 

recommended to require the following letter of indemnity from cargo 

owners to be countersigned by an acceptable bank:

The above cargo was shipped on the above vessel by [insert name of 

shipper] and consigned to [insert name of consignee or to whose order 

the Bill of Lading is made out, as appropriate] for delivery at the port of 

[insert name of discharge port stated in the Bill of Lading] but the Bills 

of Lading have not arrived and we, [insert name of party requesting 

delivery], hereby request you to give delivery of the said cargo to [insert 

name of party to whom delivery is to be made] without production of 

the original Bill(s) of Lading.

agree as follows: 

1 To indemnify you, your servants and agents and to hold all of you 

harmless in respect of any liability, loss, damage or expenses of

your servants or agents in connection with the delivery of the cargo as 

aforesaid to provide you or them on demand with sufficient funds to 

defend the same.

any other ship or property belonging to you should be arrested or 

detained or if the arrest or detention thereof should be threatened to 

provide on demand such bail or other security as may be required to 

prevent such arrest or detention or to secure the release of such ship or 

property and to indemnify you in respect of any liability, loss, damage or 

expenses caused by such arrest or detention or threatened arrest or 

detention whether or not such arrest or detention or threatened arrest or 

detention may be justified. 

4 As soon as all original Bills of Lading for the above cargo shall have 

come into our possession to deliver the same to you, whereupon our 

liability hereunder shall cease. 

5 The liability of each and every person under this indemnity shall be joint

against any person, whether or not such person is party to or liable under 

this indemnity.

English law and every person liable under this indemnity shall at your 

request submit to the jurisdiction of the High Court of Justice of 

England.

Pollution Charterparty Clauses 

In March 1990 the Group circulated a recommended clause for inclusion 

in charterparties of tankers. In order to reflect the 1992 Protocol to 

CLC, and the OPA requirements concerning certification which now 

apply in the United States, the original clause has been amended, and a 

new clause for non-tankers is recommended. 

Financial Responsibility in Respect of Pollution 

(Applicable to all self-propelled tank vessels and to non-self-propelled tank 

vessels carrying more than 2,000 tons of persistent oil in bulk 

as cargo) 

1 Owners warrant that throughout the currency of this charter they will 

provide the vessel with the following certificates: 

(a) Certificates issued pursuant to the Civil Liability Convention 1969 

(“CLC”), and pursuant to the 1992 protocols to the CLC, as and when 

in force. 

(b) Certificates issued pursuant to Section 1016(a) of the Oil Pollution Act 

1990, and Section 108(a) of the Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation and Liability Act 1980, as amended in 

accordance with Part 138 of Coast Guard Regulations 33 CFR, so long 

as these can be obtained by the owners from or by (identify the 

applicable scheme or schemes). 

2 Notwithstanding anything whether printed or typed herein to the 

contrary: 

(a) save as required for compliance with paragraph (1) hereof, owners shall 

not be required to establish or maintain financial security or 

responsibility in respect of oil or other pollution damage to enable the 

vessel lawfully to enter, remain in or leave any port, place, territorial or 

contiguous waters of any country, state or territory in performance of 

this charter. 

(b) Charterers shall indemnify owners and hold them harmless in respect of 

any loss, damage, liability or expense (including but not limited to the 

costs of any delay incurred by the vessel as a result of any failure by the 

charterers promptly to give alternative voyage orders) whatsoever and

howsoever arising which owners may sustain by reason of any 

requirement to establish or maintain financial security or responsibility in 

order to enter, remain in or leave any port, place or waters, other than to 

the extent provided in paragraph (1) hereof. 

(c) Owners shall not be liable for any loss, damage or expense whatsoever 

and howsoever arising which charterers and/or the holders of any bill of 

lading issued pursuant to this charter may sustain by reason of any 




3 Charterers warrant that the terms of this clause will be incorporated 

effectively into any bill of lading issued pursuant to this charter. 

Financial Responsibility in Respect of Pollution 

(All ships other than self propelled tank vessels and non-self-propelled tank 

vessels carrying more than 2,000 tons of persistent oil in bulk 

as cargo) 

1 Owners warrant that throughout the currency of this charter they will 

provide the vessel with the following certificates: 

Certificates issued pursuant to Section 1016(a) of the Oil Pollution Act 

1990, and Section 108(a) of the Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation and Liability Act 1980, as amended in 

accordance with Part 138 of Coast Guard Regulations 33 CFR, from 

(indicate the earliest date upon which the owners may be 

required to deliver the vessel into the charter), so long as these can 

be obtained by the owners from or by (identify the applicable 

scheme or schemes). 

2 Notwithstanding anything whether printed or typed herein to the 

contrary: 

(a) save as required for compliance with paragraph (1) hereof, owners shall 

not be required to establish or maintain financial security or 

responsibility in respect of oil or other pollution damage to enable the 

vessel lawfully to enter, remain in or leave any port, place, territorial or 

contiguous waters of any country, state or territory in performance of 

this charter. 

113

114 

(b) Charterers shall indemnify owners and hold them harmless in respect of 

any loss, damage, liability or expense (including but not limited to the 

costs of any delay incurred by the vessel as a result of any failure by the 

charterers promptly to give alternative voyage orders) whatsoever and 

howsoever arising which owners may sustain by reason of any 




(c) Owners shall not be liable for any loss, damage, liability or expense 

whatsoever and howsoever arising which charterers and/or the holders 

of any bill of lading issued pursuant to this charter may sustain by reason 

of any requirement to establish or maintain financial security or 

responsibility in order to enter, remain in or leave any port, place or 

waters, other than to the extent provided in paragraph (1) hereof. 

3 Charterers warrant that the terms of this clause will be incorporated 

effectively into any bill of lading issued pursuant to this charter.

Inter-Club New York Produce Exchange 

Agreement 1996 

This Agreement is made on the 1st of September 1996 between the P&I 

Clubs being members of The International Group of P&I Associations 

listed below (hereafter referred to as “the Clubs”). 

This Agreement replaces the Inter-Club Agreement 1984 in respect of all 

charterparties specified in clause (1) hereof and shall continue in force 

until varied or terminated. Any variation to be effective must be 

approved in writing by all the Clubs but it is open to any Club to 

withdraw from the Agreement on giving to all the other Clubs not less 

than three months’ written notice thereof, such withdrawal to take effect 

at the expiration of that period. After the expiry of such notice the 

Agreement shall nevertheless continue as between all the Clubs, other 

than the Club giving such notice who shall remain bound by and be 

entitled to the benefit of this Agreement in respect of all Cargo Claims 

arising out of charterparties commenced prior to the expiration of such 

notice. 

The Clubs will recommend to their Members without qualification that 

their Members adopt this Agreement for the purpose of apportioning 

liability for claims in respect of cargo which arise under, out of or in 

connection with all charterparties on the New York Produce Exchange 

Form 1946 or 1993 or Asbatime Form 1981 (or any subsequent 

amendment of such Forms), whether or not this Agreement has been 

incorporated into such charterparties. 

Scope of application 

1 This Agreement applies to any charterparty which is entered into after 

the date hereof on the New York Produce Exchange Form 1946 or 1993 

or Asbatime Form 1981 (or any subsequent amendment of such Forms). 

2 The terms of this Agreement shall apply notwithstanding anything to the 

contrary in any other provision of the charterparty; in particular the 

provisions of clause (6) (time bar) shall apply notwithstanding any 

provision of the charterparty or rule of law to the contrary. 

115

116 

3 For the purposes of this Agreement, Cargo Claim(s) mean claims for loss, 

damage, shortage (including slackage, ullage or pilferage), overcarriage of 

or delay to cargo including customs dues or fines in respect of such loss, 

damage, shortage, overcarriage or delay and include: 

(a) any legal costs claimed by the original person making any such claim; 

(b) any interest claimed by the original person making any such claim; 

(c) all legal, Club correspondents’ and experts’ costs reasonably incurred in 

the defence of or in the settlement of the claim made by the original 

person, but shall not include any costs of whatsoever nature incurred in 

making a claim under this Agreement or in seeking an indemnity under 

the charterparty. 

4 Apportionment under this Agreement shall only be applied to Cargo 

Claims where: 

(a) the claim was made under a contract of carriage, whatever its form, 

(i) which was authorised under the charterparty; 

or 

(ii) which would have been authorised under the charterparty but for 

the inclusion in that contract of carriage of Through Transport or 

Combined Transport provisions, 

provided that 

(iii) in the case of contracts of carriage containing Through Transport or 

Combined Transport provisions (whether falling within (i) or (ii) above) 

the loss, damage, shortage, overcarriage or delay occurred after 

commencement of the loading of the cargo onto the chartered vessel and 

prior to completion of its discharge from that vessel (the burden of proof 

being on the Charterer to establish that the loss, damage, shortage, 

overcarriage or delay did or did not so occur); and 

(iv) the contract of carriage (or that part of the transit that comprised 

carriage on the chartered vessel) incorporated terms no less favourable to 

the carrier than the Hague or Hague/Visby Rules, or, when 

compulsorily applicable by operation of law to the contract of carriage, 

the Hamburg Rules or any national law giving effect thereto; and 

(b) the cargo responsibility clauses in the charterparty have not been 

materially amended. A material amendment is one which makes 

the liability, as between Owners and Charterers, for Cargo Claims clear.

In particular, it is agreed solely for the purposes of this Agreement: 

(i) that the addition of the words “and responsibility” in clause 8 of the 

New York Produce Exchange Form 1946 or 1993 or clause 8 of the 

Asbatime Form 1981, or any similar amendment of the charterparty 

making the Master responsible for cargo handling, is not a material 

amendment; and 

(ii) that if the words “cargo claims” are added to the second sentence of 

clause 26 of the New York Produce Exchange Form 1946 or 1993 or 

clause 25 of the Asbatime Form 1981, apportionment 

under this Agreement shall not be applied under any circumstances even 

if the charterparty is made subject to the terms of this Agreement; 

and 

(c) the claim has been properly settled or compromised and paid. 

5 This Agreement applies regardless of legal forum or place of arbitration 

specified in the charterparty and regardless of any incorporation of the 

Hague, Hague/Visby Rules or Hamburg Rules therein. 

Time Bar 

6 Recovery under this Agreement by an Owner or Charterer shall be 

deemed to be waived and absolutely barred unless written notification of 

the Cargo Claim has been given to the other party to the charterparty 

within 24 months of the date of delivery of the cargo or the date the 

cargo should have been delivered, save that, where the Hamburg Rules 

or any national legislation giving effect thereto are compulsorily 

applicable by operation of law to the contract of carriage or to that part 

of the transit that comprised carriage on the chartered vessel, the period 

shall be 36 months. Such notification shall if possible include details of 

the contract of carriage, the nature of the claim and the amount claimed. 

The apportionment 

7 The amount of any Cargo Claim to be apportioned under this 

Agreement shall be the amount in fact borne by the party to the 

charterparty seeking apportionment, regardless of whether that claim 

may be or has been apportioned by application of this Agreement to 

another charterparty. 

117 

6

118 

8 Cargo Claims shall be apportioned as follows: 

(a) Claims in fact arising out of unseaworthiness and/or error or fault in 

navigation or management of the vessel: 

100% Owners 

save where the Owner proves that the unseaworthiness was caused by the 

loading, stowage, lashing, discharge or other handling of 

the cargo, in which case the claim shall be apportioned under sub-clause 

(b). 

(b) Claims in fact arising out of the loading, stowage, lashing, discharge, 

storage or other handling of cargo: 

100% Charterers 

unless the words “and responsibility” are added in clause 8 or there is a 

similar amendment making the Master responsible for cargo handling in 

which case: 


50% Owners 

save where the Charterer proves that the failure properly to load, stow, 

lash, discharge or handle the cargo was caused by the unseaworthiness of 

the vessel in which case: 

100% Owners 

(c) Subject to (a) and (b) above, claims for shortage or overcarriage: 


50% Owners 

unless there is clear and irrefutable evidence that the claim arose out of 

pilferage or act or neglect by one or the other (including their servants 

or sub-contractors) in which case that party shall then bear 100% of the 

claim. 

(d) All other cargo claims whatsoever (including claims for delay to cargo): 


50% Owners 

unless there is clear and irrefutable evidence that the claim arose out of 

the act or neglect of the one or the other (including their servants or 

sub-contractors) in which case that party shall then bear 100% of the 

claim.

Governing Law 

9 This Agreement shall be subject to English Law and Jurisdiction, unless it 

is incorporated into the charterparty (or the settlement of claims in 

respect of cargo under the charterparty is made subject to this 

Agreement), in which case it shall be subject to the law and jurisdiction 

provisions governing the charterparty.

7 Selected Circulars 

Circular No. 1990/7 July 1990 

Bills of Lading: Delivery of Cargo Against One Original 

Bill of Lading Carried on Board 

Members will recollect that previous Group Circulars, in April 1979 and 

March 1984, pointed out that liability arising from delivery of cargo 

without production of the bill of lading is not recoverable under the 

Rules of the Group Associations unless a Board or Committee of an 

Association in a particular case should decide otherwise.The circular of 

March 1984 specifically warned Members of the dangers inherent in the 

practice of retaining one original bill of lading on board the ship during 

the voyage and giving delivery of the cargo at the discharge port against 

that document. 

Since that time, a number of efforts have been made by interested parties 

to improve the unsatisfactory legal and commercial aspects of continuing 

to trade cargoes by reference to three original paper bills of lading.The 

increasing use of Seaway Bills and the potential of electronic data 

interchange are contributing to possible solutions to these problems. 

However, no universally acceptable system has yet been devised and in 

the meantime, Members will be aware that the practice of the Master 

carrying on board one set of three original bills of lading, so that the 

cargo may be delivered against the same bill of lading, remains 

commonplace.Whilst this practice avoids delivery of cargo without 

production of an original bill of lading, it will not necessarily protect the 

shipowner from a claim for misdelivery of the cargo. 

Where a set of original bills of lading is issued, endorsement and transfer 

of any one of the set may be sufficient to transfer the ownership of the 

cargo.When an incomplete set of bills of lading (two of three originals) 

has been in circulation during a voyage, there remains the risk that the 

party demanding delivery against the single original bill of lading 

retained on board will not acquire title to the cargo by reference to the 

other two original bills of lading which have been negotiated. Delivery 

in exchange for the bill of lading carried on board might result therefore

in a misdelivery of the cargo. In some jurisdictions a shipowner could be 

liable for a claim based on such misdelivery. If a claim is brought for 

misdelivery, it is likely to be for the full value of the cargo. 

The undersigned Associations repeat their earlier recommendations to 

their Members to resist requests to carry one of a set of original bills of 

lading on board. If Members feel compelled, for commercial reasons, to 

agree to the practice the undersigned Associations recommend that the 

following wording be prominently endorsed on all of the original bills of 

lading: 

“One original bill of lading retained on board against which bill delivery 

of cargo may properly be made on instructions received from 

shippers/charterers.” 

The endorsement will give notice to any party purchasing the cargo 

against an incomplete set of bills of lading, that delivery may be made in 

exchange for one original bill of lading retained on board, and should 

therefore reduce the risks of the practice. 

When an original bill of lading is carried on board, whether it is the 

only original or one of a set of originals, the utmost care must be taken 

by the Master to correctly identify the party to whom the bill of lading 

should be handed over at destination. Failure to hand the bill of lading to 

the right party could also result in a claim for misdelivery of the cargo.

Circular No. 1992/13 October 1992 

Carriage of Cargo and Containers on Deck 

Proviso (i) to paragraphs 20 and 21 of Rule 20 (the cargo rule) states 

among other things that there shall be no recovery “unless the Board in 

its discretion otherwise determines’’ for claims in respect of cargo carried 

on deck unless either:“(a) the cargo is carried under a contract of 

carriage which permits the cargo to be carried on deck, states that the 

cargo is being carried on deck and exonerates the Owner from all 

liability in respect of such cargo; or (b) such carriage has been approved 

by the Managers in writing’’. 

A number of issues relating both to the cover and to claims prevention 

under this Rule have arisen in recent months. 

A Cover 

The proviso set out above means that the club will only cover cargo 

carried on deck if an on-deck bill is issued or if the Managers have 

approved the carriage without an on-deck bill being issued.We think it 

might be helpful if we set out what type of cargo the Managers will 

approve as being carried on deck without an on-deck bill being issued. 

The Managers will only approve the carriage on deck against a clean bill 

of lading if there is a clear custom in the trade to carry such cargoes on 

deck. Certain dangerous goods should only be carried on deck. Logs and 

sawn timber can normally be carried on deck with clean bills. Kiln dried 

timber or products (i.e. plywood, fibreboard etc.) should not be carried 

on deck unless on-deck bills are issued. All steel whether in its finished 

or semi-finished state is highly susceptible to corrosion from contact 

with salt water and should not be carried on deck. Closed containers can 

be carried on deck of a purpose built container ship or a ship especially 

converted or equipped for the carriage of containers on deck if the ship 

is fitted with a properly designed lashing system which meets the 

classification design criteria with the lashing components certified by a 

classification society (although the lashing system may not be specifically 

class approved).The Managers do not think that open top containers or 

flat racks should be carried on deck against clean bills of lading.The 

Managers think that carrying cargo in open top containers or on flat 

racks on deck is no different than carrying cargo on deck under 

tarpaulins. Consequently cargo carried on flat racks and in open top 

containers will not be covered unless on-deck bills of lading are issued, 

or unless the cargo within would otherwise be approved for deck

carriage. 

B Claims prevention 

The club has over the past two years been faced with a number of claims 

for loss of containers over the side. Invariably the containers that have 

been lost have been lashed with a lashing system of cones, wires and 

lever tensioners, often in a poor state of repair.The club considers a 

lashing system of cones, wires and lever tensioners to be inferior to 

lashing systems which use twist locks, turnbuckles and rods.The club has 

not in recent years had any examples of such lashing systems failing. 

The Managers believe that if containers are lost overboard, investigations 

will almost invariably reveal that an inadequate lashing system, often a 

cone system rather than a twist lock system, has been used.With such a 

system it is very difficult to defeat the resulting cargo claims. 

The club has also had a number of claims for the collapse of containers 

stowed under deck where the containers have been carried in holds 

which are not fitted with cell guides or a buttress.The carriage of a stack 

of containers in a cargo hold without lateral support is not considered 

good practice by the Managers, regardless of the type of lashing system 

used. 

Although the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code, and some 

local regulations require certain extremely dangerous goods to be carried 

only on deck the club and other clubs in the International Group have 

recently been faced with large claims resulting from the loss overboard of 

such dangerous goods. If this occurs in coastal waters the authorities will 

require the cargo to be found and removed if there is a risk of any 

contamination or danger to the public.Therefore when extremely 

dangerous goods are to be carried on deck, care must be taken, if 

possible, to determine the “best’’ location for the stow.The following 

factors might be considered: 

– The stow must be so located that in the event of a leakage no direct 

hazard is presented to the crew.The cargo must not be located by 

doorways, spaces used by the crew or near the accommodation block. 

The cargo should be located clear of ventilators to areas used by the 

crew or to the accommodation block and should be stowed clear of 

ventilators to food stores or fresh water tanks. 

– The stow must be located, if possible, in a sheltered position, for 

example between other containers or behind a mast, a crane house or 

any other suitable structure, or on a cellular container vessel as near 

the centre and as far aft as possible.

Circular No. 1993/5 March 1993 

Minimum Standards 

We refer to our circular of the 26th October, 1992, headed “Procedures”. 

The circular reported that the Board was considering a proposal that all 

members should be expected to have operating procedures which deal 

with a number of matters set out in the circular; a safety policy for their 

crews; a maintenance schedule for their ships; a policy for the continuity 

of employment of at least the four senior officers; formal contingency 

procedures to respond to a major casualty and that each ship should 

carry certain listed publications.The proposals are an attempt to reduce 

the large number of claims caused by human error either of the crew or 

of shore based staff.The proposals are also intended to allow all members 

to feel confident that their fellow members are operating to some basic 

minimum standards – the essence of mutuality.The circular asked all 

members for their comments on the idea in principle and on the details 

by the end of November. 

We are pleased to report that the great majority of comments on this 

proposal have been positive and we have found considerable support for 

this initiative. Accordingly the Board has endorsed the proposals which 

are set out in the appendix to this circular.We must make it clear again 

that the club is not setting down procedures with which all members 

must comply, but is merely requiring members to develop their own 

procedures which deal with the points set out in the appendix.The club 

is convinced that the crews who have procedures which set out how 

they should do their work safely make fewer mistakes than those who do 

not.The Club is also convinced that continuity of employment is a vital 

factor in reducing claims. 

Members will be expected during the 1993/94 policy year to ensure that 

they comply with these minimum standards. If any member feels that he 

cannot, he should discuss the matter with the Managers as soon as 

possible. Failure to comply with the standards will not prejudice cover. 

The purpose of the proposals is to show that the Club sees the need for 

certain minimum qualifications in order for an owner to be a member of 

the Club. Compliance with the spirit and intent will be a requirement of 

continued membership after 20th February, 1994.

A Procedures 

All members should have written company procedures in a language 

which can be understood by the officers and the ratings, which govern 

both deck and engine room and which in general define how the ship 

shall be managed and operated setting out the company’s expectations 

about the performance of the officers and the crew.These procedures 

should be signed by each officer at the beginning of his tour of duty.The 

members should establish a system for checking that the procedures are 

followed.The procedures should define the responsibility of each officer 

for particular tasks and should at least deal with the following aspects:- 

1 Bridge and Navigation

Procedures Guide, but anyway the procedures should deal with:- 

(a) Manning and watchkeeping:

B Crew Safety 

To promote safe working practices: a safety policy should be issued by 

the chief executive; a safety officer should be appointed on each ship; 

and, where feasible, a safety committee. Regular meetings of the safety 

committee should take place when all reported accidents and incidents 

are considered and appropriate action taken. An accident reporting 

system should be in operation and clear instructions given for its proper 

use. 

Instructions and guide-lines must be issued dealing with procedures for 

the normal crew duties based on a recognised code of safe working 

practice (e.g. the UK DTp Code of Safe Working Practices for Merchant 

Seamen).The Company should have a policy towards drugs and alcohol 

with particular reference to the national regulations of ports to be 

visited. 

A safety manual should be on board giving directions and instruction 

covering the following:- 

(1) Protective clothing and equipment; 

(2) Accident prevention; 

(3) Fire prevention; 

(4) Fire fighting; 

(5) Emergency procedures such as: 

(a) Man overboard (this should already be enclosed in the 

bridge procedures); 

(b) Rescue from enclosed space; 

(c) Search and rescue; 

(d) Abandon ship; 

(6) Permit to working systems covering:- 

(a) Enclosed space entry; 

(b) Hot work; 

(c) Working aloft;

(7) Personal hygiene and hygiene in galleys and provisions store rooms. 

(8) Training and Drills. On board training and instruction in the use of life 

saving appliances and fire fighting equipment must be held on a regular 

basis. Particular emphasis must be placed on carrying out realistic drills 

utilising the ship’s safety equipment, including breathing apparatus and 

portable fire fighting equipment.These drills should be designed to 

familiarise the ship’s company with emergency procedures and 

equipment and to ensure that they are able to respond positively and 

effectively in the event of emergency. 

C. General Ship Maintenance 

A maintenance schedule should be devised for each ship to ensure 

uniform standards and should address the following:- 

(i) General appearance and painting of the ship; 

(ii) Frequency and detail of structural examination to be carried out by 

the ship’s staff; 

(iii) Reporting of any matter thought likely to affect the ship’s 

classification status; 

(iv) General level of maintenance required on closing appliances 

including hatch covers and watertight doors; 

(v) Frequency of ships superintendent’s visits. 

(vi) Regular reporting of ship’s condition to head office. 

D. Managing and Training 

Members should have a policy for the continuity of employment of 

senior officer, e.g. - master, chief officer, chief engineer and second 

engineer. Random mixing of different nationalities of crew should be 

avoided if possible.Where practical the members should establish a policy 

of meeting with the four senior officers at regular intervals. 

A proper system for the payment of allotments, for reliefs at end of tour, 

and for the forwarding of crew mail should be in place, regardless of the 

nationality of the crew or the wage structure. 

Owners and managers are reminded that, regardless of their manning 

arrangements, total responsibility for the safe and efficient operation of 

the vessel rests with them and that this responsibility may not be 

delegated to any other party. Owners and managers are further reminded 

of their obligations with respect to the minimum standards of manning 

and training under the IMO Convention for Standards of Training, 

Certification and Watchkeeping (the STCW Convention). 

131 

7

132 

E. Contingency Plan 

Members should have formal procedures to cover any major casualty 

including collisions, groundings, pollution, cargo damage or any other 

incident, and which set out at least:- 

• Who the ship should contact at head office and/or the ship managers’ 

and/or a superintendent; 

• Who the ship manager should alert - hull brokers, P & I club, 

classification society, average adjuster, charterers, lawyers; 

• Telephone numbers of all important people; 

• In addition members should:- 

• Designate and prepare a company crisis team, and decide who the 

company spokesman should be; 

F. A Standard Publication List

Circular No. 1994/11 December 1994 

Owners’ P&I Insurance 

On two recent occasions the Club has reimbursed time charterer 

members for significant claims which were properly the responsibility of 

the shipowners. Neither the shipowners nor their insurers could be made 

to respond to the claims. As we do not wish the Standard Club’s 

members to be exposed to liabilities which are not properly for their 

account, we have recommended in the latest issue of the Bulletin (No. 24 

of November 1994) that charterer members should ensure that the ships 

they charter are operated by reputable shipowners who have good 

insurance cover. In order to reinforce this recommendation, the following 

warranty will be included in all charterer members’ terms of entry for 

the 1995/96 policy year: 

“Warranted that the ship is entered by her owner for full P&I risks in an 

International Group P&I Club, or held covered on terms to be agreed in 

writing with the Managers and subject to advice to the Managers before 

delivery of the ship to the member.”

Circular No. 1995/9 December 1995 

Obligations with Regard to Claims 

The Managers wish to remind members of their obligations under the 

provisions of Rule 23 regarding the notification, settlement and 

submission of claims. A member must notify the Managers of every claim 

made against him which is likely to lead to a claim for recovery by the 

member upon the Club as soon as possible, but in no case later than 12 

months. He must also submit his claim for reimbursement to the Club 

within 12 months after settling or discharging the same. 

The obligation in respect of notification is not confined to claims 

received from third parties, but extends to every casualty or event which 

is likely to lead to a claim for recovery upon the Club and in respect of 

every event or matter which will, or may, cause a member to incur 

liability, costs or expenses against which he may be insured by the Club. 

Members are reminded that, in accordance with Rule 23.8, if a member 

fails to comply with any obligation set out in Rule 23, the Club shall not 

be under any obligation whatsoever to reimburse the member save at the 

discretion of the Board.

Circular No. 1999/19 November 1999 

The Carriage of Calcium Hypochlorite 

There have been several large fires on board cargo ships over the past 

two years which have been attributed to the carriage of calcium 

hypochlorite (UN Nos. 1479, 1748, 2208, 2880). In response to these 

casualties the International Group of P&I Clubs established a calcium 

hypochlorite working group which has met to share information and 

listen to the views of scientific experts. 

The results from full-scale tests on package sizes routinely used when 

shipping calcium hyochlorite in freight containers indicates that the 

transport requirements in the IMDG Code are inadequate. 

Calcium hypochlorite is classed as an oxidising substance (IMDG Class 

5.1). It is manufactured in various forms, both high strength (“HCH”, 

UN Nos. 1748 and 2880) and low strength (UN2208), known as 

bleaching powder. All forms of calcium hypochlorite will react violently 

when contaminated by an organic material.The reaction will generate 

heat and oxygen, which will feed any resulting fire. Impurities can be 

introduced either via insufficient or damaged packing material or as the 

result of poor manufacturing standards.The product is also self-reactive 

and sensitive to high temperatures: sensitivity increases as the package size 

increases. Recent research on hydrated HCH (UN2880) indicates that a 

violent reaction can occur at temperatures which are encountered by 

ships transiting tropical areas.The Critical Ambient Temperature (the 

temperature at which a violent decomposition of the material occurs) for 

a 20ft freight container packed with 432 drums of 40kg hydrated HCH 

is calculated by the scientists to be about 37°C.The Critical Ambient 

Temperature for a 20ft freight container packed with 80 drums of 200kg 

hydrated HCH is calculated to be about 30°C. For a violent reaction to 

occur, these temperatures would have to be maintained for up to three 

weeks, although at higher temperatures (or if the product is impure) this 

period is reduced considerably. 

The IMDG code today allows hydrated HCH to be shipped below deck 

but:- 

“Away from sources of heat where temperatures in excess of 55°C for a period of 

24 hours or more will be encountered”. 

In the light of the results from the investigation into the thermal 

properties of hydrated HCH (UN2880), the International Group believes 

that this provision is inadequate and has requested IMO to review all

entries in the IMDG Code concerning the requirements for 

transportation of all forms of calcium hypochlorite. 

Realising the product’s importance in providing clean water to disaster 

areas and taking into account an envisaged delay before any changes to 

the IMDG Code will take effect, the International Group of P&I Clubs 

has decided to issue interim recommendations for the carriage of 

calcium hypochlorite cargoes.The purpose of these guidelines is to 

enable the continued shipping of calcium hypochlorite in a way that will 

lessen the risk of exposing the carrying ship and shipboard personnel to 

danger, until such time as the IMDG Code has been reviewed by IMO. 

Recommendations: 

1 Cargoes of calcium hypochlorite classified and UN1748, 2208 and 2880 

should be carried on deck only, out of direct sunlight and clear of living 

quarters. 

2 Cargoes of calcium hypochlorite classified as UN1748, 2208 and 2880 

should be packed in clean drums not exceeding 45 kg net weight. 

Calcium hypochlorite should never be packed for marine transportation 

in sacks or in bags. 

3 On those voyages for which prolonged mean air temperatures can be 

anticipated to reach 35°C, additional measures for limiting temperatures 

within freight containers carrying calcium hypochlorite, classified as 

UN1748 and UN2880, should be adopted, for example by ventilation or 

mechanical cooling. Alternatively, the total weight of calcium hyochlorite 

should be limited to 14 tonnes per freight container. 

4 Cargoes of calcium hypochlorite classified as UN1748, 2208 and 2880 

should not be carried in freight containers larger than 20ft. 

5 It has been reported that some manufactured hydrated HCH contains 

water in excess of 10%, which takes the product out of the specification 

for hydrated calcium hypochlorite (UN2880).This has resulted in the 

product being declared as UN1479 (oxidising solid N.O.S.), which has 

less onerous provisions for carriage. Research has shown that increased 

water content lowers the thermal stability of the product. It is 

recommended that calcium hypochlorite declared as UN1479 should be 

subject to the same transport requirements as UN2880.

Circular No. 1999/1(T) December 1999 

Blue Cards – CLC Certificates 

– 1969 and 1992 Civil Liability Conventions 

For the last two years two separate regimes have been in force: the 1969 

Civil Liability Convention (CLC) and the 1992 CLC. In order to ensure 

world-wide trading it has been necessary for ships to carry on board 

both a 1969 and 1992 CLC certificate. Ships registered in a CLC state 

are able to obtain one of these two certificates from their flag state, 

depending on the CLC which the flag state has ratified. It has been 

necessary to obtain the other certificate from a different state. Most 

owners of ships flying the flag of a 1992 CLC state have obtained their 

1969 CLC certificates from the ship registries of either Panama or Malta. 

However, Panama has ratified the 1992 CLC and denounced the 1969 

CLC. Its denunciation will take effect on 11th May 2000. Malta is 

expected to ratify the 1992 CLC and denounce the 1969 CLC this 

month. 

A problem, therefore, arises for the 2000/01 policy year since it is 

expected that neither of these states will be able to issue 1969 CLC 

certificates valid for the entire year. It has proved difficult to find a 1969 

CLC ship registry willing to issue 1969 CLC certificates to foreign 

vessels. 

The International Maritime Organisation 

This problem was debated at the recent Assembly of the International 

Maritime Organisation (IMO).The IMO passed a Resolution inviting 

the 1969 CLC states not to require ships holding 1992 CLC certificates 

to also hold 1969 CLC certificates. Such states were urged to accept 

1992 certificates as meeting the requirements of the 1969 CLC. 

The effect of the IMO Resolution 

1 Ships registered in 1992 CLC states need only obtain a 1992 CLC 

certificate from their flag state.This should be sufficient evidence of 

insurance even when calling at ports in a 1969 CLC state.

2 Ships flying the flag of a 1969 CLC state will need to obtain a 1969 

CLC certificate from their flag state and a 1992 CLC certificate from a 

1992 CLC state, e.g. the United Kingdom. 

3 Ships flying the flag of a state which is not party to either the 1969 CLC 

or the 1992 CLC should obtain a 1992 CLC certificate from a 1992 

CLC state, e.g. the United Kingdom.This then should be sufficient 

evidence of insurance when calling at ports in either a 1969 or a 1992 

CLC state. 

Recommendation 

It is recommended that all ships carry on board a copy of the relevant 

IMO Resolution.This Resolution is attached to this circular as Annex 1. 

Lists of countries which are parties to the 1969 and 1992 CLCs are 

attached as Annex 2. 

Annex 1 

Draft Resolution A.899(21) Adopted on 25th November 1999 

Acceptance of CLC Insurance Certificates 

The Assembly 

RECALLING article 15(j) of the Convention on the International 

Maritime Organisation concerning the functions of the Assembly in 

relation to regulations and guidelines concerning maritime safety and the 

prevention and control of marine pollution from ships, and legal matters 

related thereto, 

RECALLING also that at present there are in force two different and 

distinct regimes of limitation of civil liability in case of oil pollution 

damage, namely the regime established under the International 

Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1969 (CLC 69) 

and that set out in the Protocol of 1992 to amend CLC 69 (1992 CLC 

Protocol), 

NOTING that Article VII of CLC 69, as well as Article 7 of the 1992 

CLC Protocol, make the provision of insurance compulsory for ships 

carrying more than 2,000 tons of oil in bulk as cargo and require the 

139 

7

140 

ships in question to carry a certificate issued by a State Party thereto as 

proof of compliance with this requirement, 

UNDERSTANDING that a number of CLC 69 States Parties require 

ships flying the flag of States Parties to the 1992 CLC Protocol (the 1992 

CLC ships) to be provided with a certificate issued in accordance with 

Article VII of CLC 69 (1969 CLC certificates), 

FURTHER NOTING that, so far, the 1992 CLC ships have been able 

to call at ports of CLC 69 States Parties, because a number of CLC 69 

States Parties were issuing to them, in accordance with their national 

practices, 1969 CLC Certificates, 

RECOGNISING that, in the near future, as a result of the accession of 

CLC 69 States Parties to the 1992 CLC Protocol, the 1992 CLC ships 

will no longer be able to obtain 1969 CLC certificates, 

BEING AWARE that the ceiling of limitation of liability established by 

the 1992 CLC Protocol is higher than that established under the 

provisions of CLC 69, 

FURTHER RECALLING that Resolution 1 of the International 

Conference on the Revision of the 1969 Civil Liability Convention and 

the 1971 Fund Convention (the 1992 Conference), established a practice 

in respect of the issue and the recognition of CLC certificates by the 

CLC 69 and the 1992 CLC Protocol State Parties, 

APPRECIATING the efforts of the Organisation to strengthen the 

accountability and responsibility of States as Flag States, 

DESIRING to assist ships to trade without any unnecessary delays, 

HAVING CONSIDERED the recommendation of the Legal 

Committee at its eightieth session: 

1 INVITES States Parties to CLC 69 not to require ships holding 1992 

CLC certificates to obtain 1969 CLC certificates and to accept 

certificates issued under the provisions of Article 7 of the 1992 CLC 

Protocol as meeting the requirements of paragraph 11 of Article VII, of 

CLC 69; 

2 URGES States Parties to the CLC 69 to become parties to the 1992 

CLC Protocol as soon as possible; 

3 INVITES FURTHER CLC 69 States Parties to issue to 1992 CLC ships 

1969 CLC certificates only if they are requested to do so by the States 

who flag these ships are entitled to fly;

4 FURTHER URGES Member States of IMO which are not Parties to 

CLC 69 or 92 to encourage their shipowners to ensure that their 

Registry is notified of the issue of a CLC certificate to their ships under 

either CLC regime; and 

5 REQUESTS the Secretary-General of the Organisation to intensify his 

efforts to ensure the wider acceptance of the 1992 CLC Protocol.
