In the event that it is intended that any vessel inspection or survey report is to be used, or relied upon by a third party, in order to make a decision on or to provide money for, the purchase of a vessel then these General Terms & Conditions shall not apply and the Company shall issue an Engagement Letter type of contract with different terms and conditions and different fees which shall apply in place thereof.

Even then, any disclosure of the report to a third party shall be subject to the restrictions and further requirements of the Engagement Letter.

If, in the Company’s opinion, the consequences indicated by the Supplier for the price and/or the implementation/delivery deadline are unreasonable or unacceptable, the Company shall be entitled to rescind the Agreement in part or in full by sending a written notice to the Supplier, unless this would clearly be unreasonable in view of the circumstances. Rescission under this paragraph will not give either party a right to compensation for any damage or loss.

The Company may, at its sole discretion, decide to waive its option to dissolve the Agreement under the previous paragraph in that case, the Company may instruct the Supplier to put the change into effect and, in that case, the Supplier shall immediately implement the change desired by the Company.
