such net amount bears to the contributory value.

TOTAL LOSS
In ascertaining whether the Vessel is a constructive Total Loss the Agreed Value shall be taken as the repaired value and
nothing in respect of the damaged or break up value of the Vessel or wreck shall be taken into account.
There shall be no recovery for a constructive total loss hereunder unless the expense of recovering and repairing the Vessel
would exceed the Agreed Value. In making this determination, only expenses incurred or to be incurred by reason of a single
accident or a sequence of damages arising from the same accident shall be taken into account, but expenses incurred prior to
the tender of abandonment shall not be considered if such are to be claimed separately under the Sue and labor clause.
In the event of Total Loss (actual or constructive), no claim to be made by the Underwriters for freight, whether notice of
abandonment has been given or not.
In no case shall the Underwriters be liable for unrepaired damage in addition to a subsequent Total Loss sustained during the
period covered by this Policy.
SUE AND LABOR
And in case of any Loss or Misfortune it shall be lawful and necessary for the Assured, their Factors, Servants and Assigns,
to sue, labor and travel for, in and about the defense, safeguard and recovery of the Vessel, or any part thereof, without
prejudice to this insurance, to the charges whereof the Underwriters will contribute their proportion as provided below. And
it is expressly declared and agreed that no acts of the Underwriters or Assured in recovering, saving or preserving the Vessel
shall be considered as a waiver or acceptance of abandonment.
In the event of expenditure under the Sue and Labor clause, the Underwriters shall pay the proportion of such expenses that
the amount insured hereunder bears to the Agreed Value, or that the amount insured hereunder (less loss and or damage
payable under this Policy) bears to the actual value of the salved property; whichever proportion shall be less; provided
always that their liability for such expenses shall not exceed their proportionate part of the Agreed Value.
If claim for Total Loss is admitted under this Policy and sue and labor expenses have been reasonably incurred in excess of
any proceeds realized or value recovered, the amount payable under this policy will be the proportion of such excess that the
Amount Insured hereunder (without deduction for loss or damage) bears to the Agreed Value or to the sound value of the
Vessel at the time of the accident, whichever value was greater; provided always that Underwriters' liability for such
expenses shall not exceed their proportionate part of the Agreed Value. The foregoing shall also apply to expenses
reasonably incurred in salving or attempting to salve the Vessel and other property to the extent that such expenses shall be
regarded as having been incurred in respect of the Vessel.
COLLISION LIABILITY
And it is further agreed that:
(a) if the vessel shall come into collision with any other ship or vessel, and the Assured or the Surety in consequence of
the Vessel being at fault shall become liable to pay and shall pay by way of damages to any other person or persons
any sum or sums in respect of such collision, the Underwriters will pay the Assured or the Surety, whichever shall
have paid, such proportion of such sum or sums so paid as their respective subscriptions hereto bear to the Agreed
Value; provided always that their liability in respect to any one such collision shall not exceed their proportionate
part of the Agreed Value.
in cases where, with the consent in writing of a majority (in amount) of Hull Underwriters, the liability of the Vessel
has been contested, or proceedings have been taken to limit liability, the Underwriters will also pay a like
proportion of the costs which the Assured shall thereby incur or be compelled to pay.
When both vessels are to blame, then, unless the liability of the owners or charterers of one or both such vessels becomes
limited by law, claims under the Collision Liability clause shall be settled on the principle of Cross - Liabilities as if the
owners or charterers of each vessel had been compelled to pay to the owners or charterers of the other such vessels such one-
half or other proportion of the latter's damages as may have been properly allowed in ascertaining the balance or the sum
payable by or to the Assured in consequence of such collision.
The principles involved in this clause shall apply to the case where both vessels are the property, in part or in whole, of the
same owners or charterers, all questions of responsibility and amount of liability as between the two vessels being left to the
(b)
4
decision of a single arbitrator, if the parties can agree upon a single arbitrator, or failing such agreement, to the decision of
Arbitrators, one to be appointed by the Assured and one to be appointed by the majority (in amount) of Hull Underwriters
interested; the two Arbitrators chosen to choose a third arbitrator before entering upon the reference, and the decision of such
single Arbitrator, or of any two of such three Arbitrators, appointed as above, to be fmal and binding.
Provided always that this clause shall in no case extend to any sum which the Assured or the Surety may become liable to pay
or shall pay in consequence of, or with respect to:
(a) removal or disposal of obstructions, wrecks or their cargoes under statutory powers or otherwise pursuant to law;
(b) injury to real or personal property of every description;
(c) the discharge, spillage, emission or leakage of oil, petroleum products, chemicals or other substances of any kind or
description whatsoever;
(d) cargo or other property on or the engagements of the Vessel;
(e) loss of life, personal injury or illness,
Provided further that exclusions (b) and 8 above shall not apply to injury to other vessels or property thereon except to the
extent that such injury arises out of any action taken to avoid, minimize or remove any discharge, spillage, emission or
leakage described in 8 above.
PILOTAGE AND TOWAGE
This insurance shall not be prejudiced by reason of any contract limiting in whole or in part the liability of pilots, tugs,
towboats, or their owners when the Assured or the agent of the Assured accepts such contracts in accordance with established
local practice.
Where in accordance with such practice, pilotage or towage services are provided under contracts requiring the Assured or
the agent of the Assured:
(a) to assume liability for damage resulting from collision of the Vessel insured with any other ship or vessel, including
the towing vessel, or
(b) to indemnify those providing the pilotage or towage services against loss or liability for such damages,
It is agreed that amounts paid by the Assured or Surety pursuant to such assumed obligations shall be deemed payments "by
way of damages to any other person or persons" and to have been paid "in consequence of the Vessel being at fault" within
the meaning of the Collision Liability clause in this Policy to the extent that such payments would have been covered if the
Vessel had been legally responsible in the absence of any agreement. Provided always that in no event shall the aggregate
amount of liability of the Underwriters under the Collision Liability clause, including this clause, be greater than the amount
of any statutory limitation of liability to which owners are entitled or would be entitled if liability under any contractual
obligation referred to in this clause were included among the liabilities subject to such statutory limitations.
CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP
In the event of any change, voluntary or otherwise, in the ownership or flag of the Vessel, or if the Vessel be placed under
new management, or be chartered on a bareboat basis or requisitioned on that basis, or if the Classification Society of the
Vessel or her class therein be changed, canceled or withdrawn, then, unless the Underwriters agree thereto in writing, this
Policy shall automatically terminate at the time of such change of ownership, flag, management, charter, requisition or
classification; provided, however, that:
(a) if the Vessel has cargo on board and has already sailed from her loading port, or is at sea in ballast, such automatic
termination shall, if required, be deferred until arrival at fmal port of discharge if with cargo, or at port of
destination if in ballast;
(b) in the event of an involuntary temporary transfer by requisition or otherwise, without prior execution of a written
agreement by the Assured, such automatic termination shall occur fifteen days after such transfer.
This insurance shall not inure to the benefit of any transferee or charterers of the Vessel, and, if a loss payable hereunder
should occur between the time of change or transfer and any deferred automatic termination, the Underwriters shall be
subrogated to all the rights of the Assured against the transferee or charterers in respect of all or part of such loss as is
5
recoverable from the transferee or charterers, and in the proportion which the amount insured hereunder bears to the Agreed
Value.
The term "new management" as used above refers only to the transfer of the management of the Vessel from one firm or
corporation to another, and it shall not apply to any internal changes within the offices of the Assured.
ADDITIONAL INSURANCES
It is a condition of this insurance that no additional insurance against the Total Loss of the Vessel shall be effected to operate
during the currency of this Policy by or for the account of the Assured, Owners, Managers, Operators or Mortgagees except
on the interests and up to the amounts enumerated in the following Sections (a) to (g) inclusive, and no such insurance shall
be subject to P.P.I., F.I.A. or other like term on any interests whatever excepting those enumerated in Section (a); provided
always and notwithstanding the limitation on recovery in the Assured clause a breach of this condition shall not afford the
Underwriters any defense to a claim by a Mortgagee who has accepted this Policy without knowledge of such breach:
(a) DISBURSEMENTS, MANAGERS' COMMISSIONS, PROFITS OR EXCESS OR INCREASED VALUE OF
HULL AND MACHINERY AND /OR SIMILAR INTERESTS HOWEVER DESCRIBED, AND FREIGHT
(INCLUDING CHARTERED FREIGHT OR ANTICIPATED FREIGHT) INSURED FOR TIME. An amount
not exceeding 25% of the Agreed Value.
FREIGHT OR HIRE, UNDER CONTRACTS FOR VOYAGE. An amount not exceeding the gross freight or hire
for the current cargo passage and next succeeding cargo passage (such insurance to include, if required, a
preliminary and an intermediate ballast passage) plus the charges of insurance. In the case of a voyage charter where
payment is made on a time basis, the amount shall be calculated on the estimated duration of the voyage, subject to
the limitation of two cargo passages as laid down herein. Any amount permitted under this section shall be reduced,
as the freight or hire is earned, by the amount so earned. Any freight or hire to be earned under the form of Charters
described in (d) below shall not be permitted under this Section (b) if any part thereof is insured as permitted under
said Section (d).
(c) ANTICIPATED FREIGHT IF THE VESSEL SAILS IN BALLAST AND NOT UNDER CHARTER. An amount
not exceeding the anticipated gross freight on next cargo passage, such amount to be reasonably estimated on the
basis of the current rate of freight at time of insurance, plus the charges of insurance. Provided, however, that no
insurance shall be permitted by this Section if any insurance is effected as permitted under Section (b).
(d) TIME CHARTER HIRE OR CHARTER HIRE FOR SERIES OF VOYAGES. An amount not exceeding 50% of
the gross hire which is to be earned under the charter in a period not exceeding 18 months. Any amount permitted
under this Section shall be reduced as the hire is earned under the charter by 50% of the gross amount so earned, but
where the charter is for a period exceeding 18 months, the amount insured need not be reduced while it does not
exceed 50 % of the gross hire still to be earned under the charter. An insurance permitted by this section may begin
on the signing of the charter.
(e) PREMIUMS. An amount not exceeding the actual premiums of all interests insured for a period not exceeding 12
months (excluding premiums insured as permitted under the foregoing sections but including, if required, the
premium or estimated calls on any Protection and Indemnity or War Risks and Strikes insurance) reducing pro rata
monthly.
(f) RETURNS OF PREMIUM. An amount not exceeding the actual returns which are recoverable subject to "and
arrival" or equivalent provision under any policy of insurance.

This Policy does not cover any loss, damage, or expense caused by, resulting from, or incurred as consequence of:
(a) Capture, seizure, arrest, restraint or detainment, or any attempt thereat; or
6
(b) Any taking of the Vessel, by requisition or otherwise, whether in time of peace or war and whether lawful or

which act is independent of the nature of the voyage or service which the vessel concerned or, in the case of a
collision, any other vessel involved therein, is performing. As used herein, "power" includes any authority
maintaining naval, military or air force in association with a power.
If war risks or other risks excluded by this clause are hereafter insured by endorsement on this Policy, such endorsement shall
supersede the above conditions only to the extent that the terms of such endorsement are inconsistent therewith and only
while such endorsement remains in force.

Whenever required by the Assurer the Assured shall aid in securing information and evidence and in obtaining
witnesses and shall cooperate with the Assurer in the defense of any claim or suit or in the appeal from any judgment,
in respect of any occurrence as hereinbefore provided.
The Assurer shall not be liable for the cost or expense of prosecuting or defending any claim or suit unless the same
shall have been incurred with the written consent of the Assurer, or the Assurer shall be satisfied that such approval
could not have been obtained under the circumstances without unreasonable delay, or that such costs and charges
were reasonably and properly incurred, such cost or expense being subject to the deductible. The cost and expense of
prosecuting any claim in which the Assurer shall have an interest by subrogation or otherwise, shall be divided
between the Assured and the Assurer, proportionately to the amounts which they would be entitled to receive
respectively, if the suit should be successful.
The Assurer shall be liable for the excess where the amount deductible under this policy is exceeded by (A) the cost of
investigating and /or successfully defending any claim or suit against the Assured based on a liability or an alleged
liability of the Assured covered by this insurance, or (B) the amount paid by the Assured either under a judgment or an
agreed settlement based on the liability covered herein including all costs, expenses of defense and taxable
disbursements.
The Assurer shall be subrogated to all the rights which the Assured may have against any other person or entity, in

Provided that where the Assured is, irrespective of this insurance, covered or protected against any loss or claim
which would otherwise have been paid by the Assurer, under this policy, there shall be no contribution by the Assurer
on the basis of double insurance or otherwise.
No claim or demand against the Assurer under this policy shall be assigned or transferred, and no person, excepting a
legally appointed receiver of the property of the Assured, shall acquire any right against the Assurer by virtue of this
insurance without the expressed consent of the Assurer.
No action shall lie against the Assurer for the recovery of any loss sustained by the Assured unless such action is
brought against the Assurer within one year after the final judgment or decree is entered in he litigation against the

such action is brought within one year from the date of the payment of such claim.
The Assurer shall not be liable for any claim not presented to the Assurer with proper proofs of loss within six (6)
months after payment thereof by the Assured.
At the expiration of this policy, the Assurer is to return for each thirty (30) consecutive days during the term of this
insurance the vessel may be laid up in a safe port; or for each thirty (30) consecutive days during the term of this
insurance the vessel may be laid up in a safe port without loading and /or discharging and without crew or cargo on
board, provided the Assured give written notice to the Assurer as soon as practicable after the commencement and
the termination of such lay -up period.
