1.2 In case of a Total Loss of the Vessel, as set out in Clause 45 of the Charter, the Guarantor guarantees payment of any amounts due under Clause 45 of the Charter up to an amount equal to all Charter Hire due and payable but unpaid under the Charter and a further amount equivalent to all future Charter Hire that would have accrued from the Date of Loss up to the end of the Charter Period (without double counting), but for such Total Loss of the Vessel.
