Conventions, Etc Sample Clauses

The "Conventions, Etc" clause defines the standard terms, abbreviations, and formatting rules that apply throughout the contract. It typically clarifies how dates, times, numbers, and references should be interpreted, and may specify the meaning of certain recurring terms or symbols. By establishing these conventions, the clause ensures consistency and reduces the risk of misunderstandings or disputes over interpretation, thereby promoting clarity and efficiency in the contract's application.
Conventions, Etc. If carriage by air involves an ultimate destination or stop in a country other than the country of departure, the Convention may be applicable. The Convention (an international treaty relating to the transportation of goods by air) governs and in most cases limits the liability of carriers in respect of loss of or damage or delay to cargo. If the Convention applies, then Brink's Liability for loss of or damage or delay to Your Shipment would usually be limited to approximately US$9.07 per pound (US$20.00 per kilogram), unless You declare a higher value for carriage and pay an additional charge. Notwithstanding any clause to the contrary, international carriage by road may be subject to the provisions of CMR. Brink's reserves the right to route the Shipment in any way that Brink’s deems appropriate. Brink’s reserves the right to route the Shipment to include stopping places but Brink’s does not and will not agree to stopping places at the time when You tender the Shipment. Should the Shipment pass among or through the United States of America, You agree that none of the provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Amendment (a U.S. law relating to motor carriers transporting freight between States of the United States as well as the U.S. overland portion of international moves) apply to any obligation of Brink’s under this Contract and that this Contract governs the rights and responsibilities of You and of Brink’s. Shipments passing through other countries by carriers other than air may be subject to similar local laws, to which, if permitted, Brink’s reserves the right to limit applicability.
