contract, our liability shall be limited to making good the damaged area only.

to a number of factors outside Our control including but not limited to changes in sailing or departure dates made by the
freight/shipping company, changes in the routes used by the freight/shipping company and port congestion. We will advise You of
any material changes to the transit times as soon as We become aware. We will not be liable for any loss or damage incurred by
You as a result of delays in transit time unless directly attributable to Our negligence or breach of contract.

14 Our Right to Hold the Goods (lien)

Our charges and applying Our right of lien. These terms and conditions shall continue to apply.
