port/s and request them to contact immediately by any means of rapid written communication (E-mail excluded) the Federation confirming the existence of such 130

whether partially or otherwise, any such restriction shall be deemed by both parties to apply to this contract and to the extent of such total or partial restriction 142
to prevent fulfilment whether by shipment or any other means whatsoever and to that extent this contract or any unfulfilled portion thereof shall be extended by 143
30 days. In the event of shipment during the extended period still proving impossible by reason of any of the causes in this clause the contract or any unfulfilled 144
part thereof, shall be cancelled. Sellers invoking this clause shall advise Buyers with due despatch. If required, Sellers must produce proof to justify their claim 145
for extension or cancellation under this clause. 146
17. BANKRUPTCY/INSOLVENCY: If before the fulfilment of this contract, either party shall suspend payment, notify any of his creditors that he is unable 147

voluntary arrangement, apply for an official moratorium, have an administration order made, have a winding up order made, have a receiver or manager appointed, 149

then current for similar goods or, at the option of the other party, at a price to be ascertained by re-purchase or re-sale and the difference between the contract price 152
and such closing-out price shall be the amount which the other party shall be entitled to claim or shall be liable to account for under this contract. Should either 153
party be dissatisfied with the price ascertained by re-purchase or re-sale, then the matter shall be referred to arbitration. If no re-purchase or re-sale takes place and 154
if the parties cannot agree to a closing-out price, then on application of either party, the closing-out price shall be fixed by a sole arbitrator appointed by the 155
Federation subject to the right of appeal under the Federation’s Rules of Arbitration and Appeal. 156

18. CIRCLE: Where a Seller repurchases from his Buyer, or from any subsequent Buyer, the same goods or part thereof, a circle shall be considered to exist as 157
regards the particular goods so repurchased, and the provisions of the Default Clause shall not apply. (For the purpose of this clause, the same goods shall mean 158
goods of the same description, of the same country of origin, of the same quality and, where applicable, of the same analysis warranty for shipment to the same 159
port/s of destination during the same period of shipment.) Different currencies shall not invalidate the circle. 160
If the goods are not declared or, having been declared, documents are not presented as a result of a circle having been established, invoices based on the mean 161
contract quantity shall be settled between each Buyer and his Seller in the circle by payment by each Buyer to his Seller of the excess of the Seller’s invoice 162
amount over the lowest invoice amount in the circle. 163
Where the circle includes contract/s expressed in different currencies, the lowest invoice amount shall be replaced by the market price on the first business day for 164
contractual shipment and invoices shall be settled between each Buyer and his Seller in the circle by payment of the difference between the market price and the 165
relevant contract price in the currency of the contract. Failing amicable agreement the market price shall be that declared by a Price Settlement Committee of the 166
Federation appointed for that purpose on application of either party. 167
Such settlement shall be due for payment not later than 15 consecutive days after the last day for declaration or, should the circle not be established before 168
the expiry of this time, then settlement shall be due for payment not later than 7 days after the circle is established. No circle shall be considered to exist if 169
its existence is not established within 45 days after the last day of shipment. 170
All Sellers and Buyers shall give every assistance to the establishment of the circle and where a circle shall have been established same shall be binding on all 171
parties to the circle. Should any party in the circle commit prior to the due date for payment any act comprehended in the Bankruptcy/Insolvency Clause, the 172
invoice amount for the goods calculated at the closing-out price as provided for in the Bankruptcy/Insolvency Clause, shall be taken as the basis for settlement 173
instead of the lowest invoice amount in the circle, and in this event each Buyer shall make payment to his Seller or each Seller shall make payment to his Buyer 174
of the difference between closing-out price and the contract price, as the case may be. 175
In the event of a claim under the Prohibition Clause, the date for settlement shall be deferred until the expiry of the extended shipment period. Thereafter, if the 176
contract is cancelled under the terms of the Prohibition Clause, this clause is not applicable. 177
19 DEFAULT: In default of fulfilment of this contract by either party, the other party at his discretion shall, after giving notice, have the right either to cancel 178
the contract, or the right to sell or purchase, as the case may be, against the defaulter who shall on demand make good the loss, if any, on such sale or purchase. If 179
the party liable to pay shall be dissatisfied with the price of such sale or purchase, or if neither of the above rights is exercised, the damages, if any, shall, failing 180
amicable settlement, be determined by arbitration. The damages awarded against the defaulter shall be limited to the difference between the contract price and the 181
actual or estimated market price on the day of default. Damages to be computed on the mean contract quantity. If the arbitrators consider the circumstances of the 182
default justify it they may, at their absolute discretion, award damages on a different quantity and/or award additional damages. 183
Prior to the last day for making a declaration of shipment a Seller may notify his Buyer of his inability to ship but the date of such notice shall not become the 184
default date without the agreement of the Buyer. If, for any other reason, either party fails to fulfil the contract and is declared to be in default by the other party 185
and default is either agreed between the parties or subsequently found by arbitrators to have occurred, then the day of the default shall, failing amicable settlement, 186
be decided by arbitration. 187

respects by English Law. Any dispute arising out of or in connection therewith shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the Federation. 189

such dispute until such dispute shall first have been heard and determined by the arbitrators, umpire or Board of Appeal (as the case may be) in accordance with 200
the Rules of Arbitration and Appeal of the Federation, and it is hereby expressly agreed and declared that the obtaining of an Award from the arbitrators, umpire 201
