General Business Terms for
Mares Shipping GmbH

For all supplies and services to Mares Shipping GmbH, the provisions of the International Ship Suppliers Association as well as INCOTERMS apply in their respective current version with the following regulated text changes/supplements:

A. Obligations of the supplier

1. The supplier is obligated to immediately provide to Mares Shipping GmbH upon first request all necessary information and documents which are needed to check the goods to be delivered for any export prohibitions and approval requirements and - if required - to make a relevant application to the responsible authorities. If the product specifications change, the supplier is obligated to immediately notify us.

2. The supplier is obligated to notify Mares Shipping GmbH at latest upon delivery of the goods, of the code number of the combined nomenclature (customs tariff number) as well as the country of origin which applies to each of the delivered goods. The supplier is additionally obligated upon first request to make all required declarations in compliance with the (EU) Directive no. 1207/2001.

3. The supplier is aware that, according to Regulation (EU) No. 1257/2013 (EU SRR Ship Recycling) and the IMO Guidelines for the development of the inventory of hazardous materials (Resolution MEPC.269(68) adopted on 15 May 2015), hazardous material inventories must be established and maintained. Upon first request, the supplier is therefore obliged to provide all declarations and statements required under Regulation (EU) No. 1257/2013 and Resolution MEPC.269(68) 2015.

4. The supplier is also obliged to check whether the goods to be delivered are subject to the supplements to the (EU) Directive No. 438/2009 (dual-use regulation), are on the export list of the Federal Republic of Germany or in the appendices of the respective valid embargo legislation of the European Union. In the case of a listing of the goods to be delivered, the supplier must accordingly indicate this in the respective goods in its offers, order confirmations and all accompanying documentation. Express reference is made to Art. 22, para. 10 of the Dual Use Regulation.

5. If this involves goods originating from the USA or goods which are delivered from the USA or were conveyed through the USA, the supplier is obligated to give the Export Control Clearance Number (ECCN) in its offers, order confirmations and all documents accompanying the goods, or to confirm in writing that the goods are not listed on the Commerce Control List (CCL) (EAR99). In the case that goods which are manufactured outside of the USA have controlled goods components which originate from the USA, the supplier is obligated to inform Mares Shipping GmbH in all offers, order confirmations and all documents accompanying the goods, that, and which portion of the goods, have such components in the goods to be delivered, and to do so giving the associated ECCN number.

6. In addition, the supplier is obligated to immediately communicate all circumstances to Mares Shipping GmbH which have to do with a prohibition or a requirement for a permit for the export of the goods to be delivered under the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, law of the European Union or the provisions of Third Party Countries.

B. Liability of the supplier / withdrawal right

1. In the case of culpable non-compliance to the obligations listed under Section A, no. 1 to 5 or culpable giving of false information about these obligations, the supplier is liable to Mares Shipping GmbH for all damages which occur due to this, including public sector, regulatory or criminal fines and penalty obligations. The supplier is obligated to hold Mares Shipping GmbH harmless upon the first request from all damages, fines or other penalty obligations.

2. Independent of the liability provisions under Section B, no. 1, Mares Shipping GmbH has the right in the case of culpable non-compliance of the obligations regulated under Section A, no. 1 to 5, or if culpable false information was given about these obligations by the supplier, to withdraw from the contract.

C. Transport insurance

Mares Shipping GmbH is an SVS/RVS prohibition customer. Costs for transport insurance are not accepted.

D. Ownership reservation

All delivered goods remain owned by Mares Shipping GmbH until the customer makes complete payment.

The customer bears the full risk of loss, accidental destruction or accidental deterioration of the goods for the property which is delivered and owned by Mares Shipping GmbH. The customer is obligated to sufficiently insure the goods against usual hazards. Any claims resulting from a damage case, especially against insurance companies or the institution which caused the damage, the customer is responsible to Mares Shipping GmbH for an amount up to the contractually agreed price of the goods concerned.

Mares Shipping GmbH

E. Liability of Mares Shipping GmbH
1. Mares Shipping GmbH is not responsible for the fulfilment of the shipowner's obligations under Regulation (EU) No. 1257/2013 and Resolution MEPC.269(68) 2015. Therefore, Mares Shipping GmbH is not obliged to make any declarations and statements required under Regulation (EU) No. 1257/2013 and Resolution MEPC.269(68) 2015 in respect of the goods ordered by the customer. If Mares Shipping GmbH nevertheless makes such declarations in respect of the goods ordered by the customer, this shall be done without recognition of any legal obligation and without precedent. Mares Shipping GmbH shall not be liable for the completeness and accuracy of such declarations in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EU) No. 1257/2013 and Resolution MEPC.269(68) 2015.

2. Mares Shipping GmbH’s liability is limited in accordance with ISSA to the contractually agreed purchase price of the respectively impacted goods. Liability for consequential damage is excluded. Deviating from the ISSA rules, this liability limitation does not apply to gross negligence, for damages caused by breach of a principal obligation and for damages which include an injury to life, limb, or the health of human beings. The amount of third-party claims is limited to the respective coverage of the existing liability insurance of Mares Shipping GmbH. The customer has the right at the conclusion of the contract to receive information about the existing insurance coverage.

Liability of Mares Shipping GmbH for simple negligence is excluded.

Warranty claims against Mares Shipping GmbH shall lapse one year after delivery of the goods to the customer.

F. Applicable law / jurisdiction

The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany are solely applicable. Application of UN Commercial Law and ISSA’s arbitration rules are expressly excluded.

The jurisdiction is Hamburg. Mares Shipping GmbH is also entitled at its election to bring a dispute to the contract party's headquarters city.
