If on the other hand, the validity of the policy is to be maintained during a period for which no premium was paid, the Assured shall pay premium pro rata parte fro this period. When the above mentioned contingencies arise, it will be incumbent upon the Insured to notify the Association or The Pool without delay of the position and the voyage of the vessel. The Association takes over that portion of the ship’s hull insurance which is not covered by the Association at the time when the own liability of the Association according to this policy is being transferred to the Pool, after which the risk thus taken over is immediately transferred to the Pool. The Assured will then have to pay premium pro rata parte to the Association at a rate calculated according to the period during which the insurance is valid according to the above ; the insurance also applying in the other respects to what, in pertinent parts, has been agreed upon through this clause. ••••• H 19 - THIRD PARTY LIABILITY DEDUCTIBLE CLAUSE - 1994 - 01 - 01 Notwithstanding the general deductible clause in the policy conditions applicable to the aggregate of all claims arising out of each separate accident or occurrence, the agreed third party liability deductible shall apply exclusively to claims under the collision liability clause and to claims following liability for damage to “fixed and floating objects” provided cover is afforded to the latter in the policy.

A 11 - UNIFORM INTEREST RATE CLAUSE - 1996 - 10 - 11 In the event that the Swedish Interest Act of 1975 (SFS 1975:625 as amended) (“Interest Act”) or any other national legislation providing for a rate of interest on late payments is applicable to a payment between the Club and the Assured, it is agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Interest Act, or any other national legislation, the relevant interest rate shall be calculated by reference to the ruling LIBOR rate plus 1.5 percentage points for the currency stated in the policy. LIBOR shall mean the interest rate appearing at 11.00 a.m. London time on Telerate on the day that the payment falls due or the first day thereafter when such rate is offered for three months’ deposits in the currency of the insurance policy. If no such rate appears on Telerate, LIBOR shall be the equivalent interest rate offered by Barclay’s Bank, London, at 11.00 a.m. London Time, for three months’ deposits in that currency or, if no such rate is offered, the three months’ LIBOR Interbank Fixing Rate (USD). ••••• H 7 - UNREPAIRED DAMAGE CLAUSE - 1991 - 01 - 01 Any increase in cost or repairs by deferment deemed to be part of the reasonable cost of repairs providing the repairs are carried out by the next special survey. Underwriter’s liability in respect of unrepaired damage is limited to such repairs that are deemed necessary and recommended by the Classification Society, will be the estimated cost of repairs at the first reasonable opportunity including estimated drydock dues and services, tanks cleaning, superintendence and removal, if necessary. ••••• H 7 - UNREPAIRED DAMAGE CLAUSE - 1995 - 09 - 01 Any increase in the cost of effecting repairs to the vessel caused by a decision to defer these repairs to a later date is deemed to be part of the reasonable cost of effecting the repairs providing that the repairs are acrried out not later than the next classification society special survey. The Swedish Club’s liability in respect of the unrepaired damage is limited to those repairs which the relevant classification society considers necessary and shall not exceed the vessel’s depreciation in value attributable to the deferment of repairs at the time of the termination of the insurance policy, which in turn shall not exceed what the repairs would reasonably have cost had these repairs been effected at the first available opportunity.
