The Captain must comply with all reasonable requests from the CHARTERER for managing, operating, and moving the Vessel, given that wind, weather, and other circumstances allow. However, the Captain is not required to obey orders that may cause the Vessel to move to an unsafe or improper port, or result in the CHARTERER not delivering the Vessel at the end of the Charter Period. If, in the Captain's opinion, the CHARTERER or any Guest breaches any provisions of Clause 13, and if this continues after the Captain gives written warning, the Captain will inform the OWNER, Broker, and Stakeholder, and the OWNER may immediately terminate the Charter, or instruct the Captain to return the Vessel to the Place of Re-Delivery.

Having paid the Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) via the Broker's account, the Charterer shall be advised by the Captain at intervals as to the disbursement of the APA. If the remaining balance becomes insufficient in light of current expenditure, the Charterer shall pay the Captain a sufficient sum to maintain an adequate credit balance. The Owner shall ensure the Captain exercises due diligence in the expenditure of the APA. Any charges or fees related to the transfer of the APA to the Vessel are the Charterer's responsibility. Exchange rates, if applicable, cannot be guaranteed. Prior to disembarkation at the end of the Charter Period, the Captain shall present the CHARTERER with a detailed account of expenditure, along with as many supporting receipts as possible.

The CHARTERER should ensure that sufficient funds are available to cover all foreseeable expenses or arrange to deposit additional funds with the Broker. CLAUSE 9 DELAY IN DELIVERY If, due to force majeure (as defined in Clause 18(a)), the OWNER fails to deliver the Vessel to the CHARTERER at the Place of Delivery at the start of the Charter Period and delivery is made within 48 hours of the scheduled start date or within one-tenth of the Charter Period, whichever period is shorter, the OWNER shall pay the CHARTERER a pro-rata refund of the Charter Fee, or if mutually agreed, the OWNER shall allow a pro-rata extension of the Charter Period." FAILURE TO DELIVER If, by reason of force majeure (as defined in Clause 18 (a)), the OWNER fails to deliver the Vessel within forty-eight (48) hours or a period equivalent to one-tenth (1/10th) of the Charter Period, whichever is shorter, from the scheduled delivery time to the Place of Delivery, the CHARTERER shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement. The CHARTERER's sole remedy shall be to receive immediate repayment without interest of all payments made under this Agreement. Alternatively, if agreed upon by both parties, the Charter Period shall be extended by an amount equivalent to the delay, or postponed to a mutually agreed date. If the OWNER fails to deliver the Vessel at the Place of Delivery at the start of the Charter Period, and it's not due to force majeure, the CHARTERER shall be entitled to regard this Agreement as being repudiated by the OWNER. The CHARTERER shall be entitled to immediate repayment without interest of all payments made under this Agreement and in addition, the OWNER shall pay the CHARTERER liquidated damages equivalent to 50% of the Charter Fee. CANCELLATION BY OWNER If prior to the commencement of the Charter Period as set out in Page One of this Agreement, the OWNER tenders notice of cancellation via the Broker and if the cancellation is due to force majeure, the remedy in (b) above shall apply.

CLAUSE 10 DELAY IN RE-DELIVERY If the re-delivery of the Vessel is delayed due to force majeure, it shall be re-delivered as soon as possible and in the meantime, the conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect but without penalty or additional charge against the CHARTERER. If the CHARTERER fails to re-deliver the Vessel to the OWNER at the Place of Re-Delivery due to intentional delay or change of itinerary against the Captain's advice, the CHARTERER shall immediately pay the OWNER via the Broker/Stakeholder's Account demurrage at the daily rate plus fifty percent (50%) of the daily rate. The CHARTERER shall also be liable for all operating costs as per Clause 8 and indemnify the OWNER for any loss or damage that the OWNER shall suffer due to deprivation of use of the Vessel or cancellation of, or delay in delivery under any subsequent Charter of the Vessel. CLAUSE 11 CANCELLATION BY CHARTERER & CONSEQUENCES OF NON-PAYMENT Should the CHARTERER give notice of cancellation of this Agreement at any time before the commencement of the Charter Period, some or all the Charter Fee may be retained by the OWNER as determined as follows: After this Agreement is signed/accepted but before the final installment is due to be paid, the OWNER shall be entitled to retain the first installment. After any subsequent installments are due to be paid, the OWNER shall be entitled to retain the first installment and any subsequent installments due. If any of the installments are due to be paid but have not been paid, then the OWNER shall have a claim against the CHARTERER for the amount due. DEFAULT OF PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO PAY Should the CHARTERER fail to pay, after having been given written notice by the OWNER, any amount due under this Agreement, the OWNER reserves the right to treat this Agreement as having been repudiated by the CHARTERER and to retain the full amount of all payments and to recover all sums unpaid and due up to the date of the repudiation. Notwithstanding the OWNER's right to receive or retain all payments referred to above, the OWNER shall be under a duty to mitigate the CHARTERER's loss and, in the event that the OWNER is able to re-let the Vessel for all or part of the Charter Period under this Agreement, the OWNER will give credit for the net amount of charter hire arising from such re-letting after deduction of all commissions and other consequential expenses arising from such re-letting. The intention is that the OWNER shall receive the same in net proceeds from any re-letting as would have been received under this Agreement had it not been cancelled or repudiated, so that the OWNER shall reimburse or forgive payments received or due from the CHARTERER only to the extent that the net proceeds from any re-letting which correspond to part or all of the Charter Period exceed the amounts which would have been received under this Agreement. The OWNER shall use his best endeavors to re-let the Vessel and shall not unreasonably withhold his agreement to re-let, although charters which may reasonably be considered detrimental to the Vessel, its reputation, its crew or its schedule may be refused. If, prior to the date of cancellation, the Vessel has taken on provisions for the Charter, or has utilized the Delivery/Redelivery Fee as set out on Page One of this Agreement, then the CHARTERER shall pay for these expenses unless all or part can be either refunded by the supplier or transferred to the next Charter, in which case they shall be adjusted accordingly. The Captain and OWNER shall be under a duty to mitigate these expenses where possible. If, after signature of this Agreement, the OWNER is adjudged bankrupt or, in the case of a company, a liquidator, receiver or administrator is appointed over all or part of the OWNER's assets, the CHARTERER shall be entitled to cancel the Charter and all monies paid to the OWNER, his agent or the Stakeholder pursuant to this Agreement shall be refunded without further deduction.

If the charterer wishes to invoke this clause, they must give immediate notice to the captain (or via the broker). The charterer will not be liable for extra costs related to the immobilization of the vessel but will remain liable for normal expenses during the period of disablement. In the event of actual or constructive total loss of the vessel or if the vessel is disabled for a consecutive period of more than 48 hours or 1/10th of the charter period (whichever is shorter), the charterer may terminate the agreement by written notice to the owner via the broker or to the captain if no means of communication is available. Within 2 working days after such termination, the owner shall repay the charter fee pro-rata without interest for the outstanding portion of the charter period after the date and time of loss or disablement. In the event of termination, the charterer may effect re-delivery by giving up possession of the vessel. The charterer is entitled to recover from the owner reasonable costs for returning the charterer and their guests to the place of re-delivery and reasonable accommodation expenses incurred. Alternatively, after a consecutive period of disablement of more than 48 hours or 1/10th of the charter period (whichever is shorter) and dependent on the nature and seriousness of the disablement, the charterer may, by mutual agreement, elect to remain on board for the duration of the charter period and will have no further claim against the owner.
