Transport Order General Terms and Conditions

Table of Contents

Under this Agreement the Carrier undertakes to provide a suitable car carrier, transport the cargo handed over by the Customer to the place of destination and deliver it to the lawful consignee (the Consignee), and the Customer undertakes to pay the agreed transport price for the carriage of the cargo. The carriage of the cargo shall be performed in accordance with the Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMR) (hereinafter — the CMR Convention), the Customs Convention on the International Transport of Goods under Cover of TIR Carnets (1975 TIR Convention), and the terms of this Agreement (hereinafter — the Agreement).

Insurance

1.During the performance of this carriage Agreement the Carrier shall maintain a valid carrier's liability insurance policy (CMR) (certificate) with an insured amount per event not less than the value of the cargo carried, and shall ensure that the policy remains in force for at least 30 (thirty) calendar days after the end of the stated cargo delivery date. The carrier shall bear the costs of such insurance. No later than 1 (one) business day before loading, the Carrier shall provide the Customer by fax and/or e-mail with a copy of the valid CMR insurance policy (certificate) and a statement of its terms (limits, deductibles, territory). If the Carrier's insurance coverage does not meet the requirements set out in this clause or if the insurer refuses to indemnify for loss arising from the Carrier's acts or omissions, the Carrier shall not be entitled to rely on the absence or insufficiency of insurance or on the insurer's decision as a basis for limiting or reducing its liability, and the Customer shall not be obliged to accept the insurer's decision or its reasoning. In any event, full liability for compensation for damage shall rest with the Carrier, regardless of whether the insurance payment is made, reduced or refused.

Requirements for Carrier Employees

2.The Carrier undertakes that, in performing the Agreement, employees appointed by the Carrier shall strictly comply with all applicable laws and requirements, including fire safety, hygiene, occupational safety, environmental protection, personal data protection, anti corruption, and other rules regulating carriage services, as well as the Shipper's and the Customer's written instructions and/or rules. The Carrier shall ensure that its employees are professionally trained, hold the necessary permits and documents, and follow internal procedures that ensure compliance with the foregoing requirements. If the Carrier fails to fulfill this obligation, it shall indemnify the Customer and third parties for all direct and indirect losses and damages arising from such breach.

3.The Carrier's driver must be trained in accordance with the requirements provided by the relevant site and/or the manufacturer: to load/unload vehicles and to wear required protective clothing (a reflective vest, safety footwear and a helmet where required). At the loading/unloading location the driver must participate throughout the entire loading/unloading process and wear personal protective equipment: a reflective vest, protective footwear, and, if required, a helmet and other protective items. For each breach of this clause, the Carrier shall pay the Client a contractual penalty of EUR 150.

4.The driver must behave courteously. If any problem arises with the site or the client's personnel, the driver shall not argue and shall immediately contact the Customer's designated responsible person (dispatcher/manager). For each breach of this clause, the Carrier shall pay the Client a contractual penalty of EUR 150.

5.Before loading and after unloading the driver must check and confirm in the CMR consignment note:

5.1.dates and times,

5.2.signatures and stamps of the person responsible (Shipper / Consignee),

5.3.VIN numbers of vehicles being loaded,

5.4.remarks regarding the condition of the cargo / discrepancies (if any — record the remarks before departure).

Subcontractors

6.The Carrier shall not use the services of intermediaries or subcontractors without notifying the Customer and obtaining the Customer's written consent. If this provision is breached, no payment shall be made for the carriage, and such breach shall be deemed a material breach of the Agreement entitling the Customer to terminate the Agreement, set off the related losses, and also to require the Carrier to pay a penalty of EUR 1,000 (one thousand), which shall be regarded as pre agreed minimum damages. The Carrier shall also be liable for all additional losses suffered by the Customer as a result of such breach, and such losses shall be fully compensated irrespective of the penalty paid.

Loading, Transportation, and Unloading of the Cargo

7.The Carrier undertakes to timely provide a suitable and technically sound vehicle transporter for the cargo specified in the Agreement, at the time and place stated in the Agreement. The vehicle transporters used for carriage under the Agreement must be visually and technically fit, have a valid technical inspection, comply with all legal and technical requirements applicable to their operation, and possess all documents and/or permits required for the carriage. The Carrier shall ensure that the vehicle transporter is equipped with all equipment necessary for securing the cargo, and that such equipment is technically sound, properly maintained, operational, and complies with the requirements of applicable laws and technical standards.

8.If the Carrier presents a vehicle transporter for loading that does not comply with the terms of the Agreement or the cargo requirements (including, but not limited to: an inappropriate type of vehicle transporter, a dirty trailer, a technically defective vehicle transporter, missing mandatory documents or equipment), the Customer shall have the right to refuse to accept such vehicle transporter. In that case the vehicle transporter shall be deemed not to have been presented, and the Carrier shall be subject to liability (penalties) under Clause 14, except where the Customer grants the Carrier an opportunity to replace the vehicle with a suitable one within a reasonable time.

9.The Carrier shall deliver the cargo and/or present the vehicle transporter for loading at the time, date and place specified in the Agreement or in the letter. Failure to perform this obligation shall be deemed a material breach of the Agreement. For each instance of delay, regardless of its duration, the Carrier undertakes to pay the Customer a penalty of EUR 500, which shall be regarded as the parties' preagreed minimum damage and which the customer needs not further prove. If the Customer suffers additional direct losses due to the delay or failure to present the vehicle transporter that exceeds the stated penalty, the Customer shall be entitled to claim full compensation for the actual losses. Where the Carrier fails to present the vehicle transporter for loading at the agreed time and place, the Customer shall have the right, in addition to applying the penalty, to terminate the Agreement without prior notice, appoint an alternative carrier and require the Carrier to reimburse all additional expenses, including, but not limited to, the difference in transport charges.

10.The Carrier (or its driver), taking all possible measures, must ensure that the cargo is handed over to the proper person, ie, the Consignee specified in the Agreement. If, due to improper performance of this obligation, the cargo is handed over to an incorrect recipient, the Carrier shall be liable as for the total loss of the cargo.

11.Upon delivery of the cargo to the unloading location, the carrier must obtain written confirmation that the cargo has been delivered. The Consignee must sign and stamp the cargo receipt confirmation in the CMR consignment note. The confirmation must state the company name and the name, surname and position of the person signing.

12.If the cargo is delivered to an incorrect address or the wrong vehicle was loaded/unloaded, the Carrier must, without delay but no later than within 2 (two) business days, at its own expense deliver the cargo to the correct address and cover all related costs and losses (including additional transport, storage, parking and administrative costs). If, as a result of such improper delivery, the cargo becomes unavailable, irretrievable, lost or can no longer be delivered to the Consignee, such improper delivery shall, under applicable law, be treated as a total loss of the cargo, and the Carrier shall bear full liability in accordance with applicable law.

13.The Carrier undertakes to ensure that the vehicle transporter is loaded and unloaded no later than within 24 (twenty four) hours from arrival at the loading or unloading location or from the time specified in the Agreement or in the letter (if the vehicle transporter arrived earlier, the period shall be calculated from the specified time).

13.1.If the Carrier foresees or becomes aware that loading or unloading will not be completed within 24 (twenty four) hours, it shall immediately, but no later than by the expiry of the 24 hour period, notify the Customer in writing, specifying the reasons for the delay. Failure to notify shall be deemed a material breach of the Agreement.

13.2.For each instance of loading or unloading delay, regardless of the duration of the delay, the Carrier undertakes to pay the Client a penalty of EUR 500, which is considered the minimum damage agreed upon in advance by the Parties and does not require any additional proof from the Client. If, due to the delay, the Client incurs additional direct losses exceeding the indicated penalty, the Client has the right to claim compensation for the full difference between the actual losses and the penalty.

14.In the event that the Carrier fails to provide the car transporter for loading, or fails to complete loading or unloading within the specified 24-hour period, the Client shall have the right, without applying a penalty, to terminate the Agreement without prior notice, appoint an alternative carrier, and require the Carrier to compensate all additional expenses, including but not limited to the difference in transportation costs.

15.Upon the Client's request, the Carrier must provide a scanned copy of the CMR consignment note (all pages, with clearly legible signatures, stamps, dates, and times) by email within one (1) business day.

Liability for the Cargo

16.The Carrier may stop with the cargo transported on the car transporter, including stops for rest or overnight, only in a secured parking area that meets all of the following minimum requirements:

16.1.The parking area must be fenced and have controlled entry and exit points;

16.2.The parking area must be continuously monitored (by physical security and/or video surveillance cameras);

16.3.The parking area must be illuminated;

16.4.The parking area must be designated for car transporters;

16.5.It must be ensured that the car transporter cannot be accessed by third parties;

16.6.The car transporter and the transported vehicles must be locked, and all security devices installed by the manufacturer and used by the Carrier must be activated, including the immobilizer, alarm system, GPS tracking, if such devices are installed;

16.7.It is prohibited to leave the car transporter unattended on roadsides, rest areas, fuel stations, public or non enclosed parking areas that do not meet the requirements set out in this clause.

    Any violation of the requirements set out in clauses 16–16.7 shall be considered a material breach of the Agreement and an independent basis for holding the Carrier fully liable in accordance with the applicable laws.

17.The Carrier shall be liable for the safety of the cargo, its damage, destruction or shortage from the moment the loading procedures begin until the cargo is delivered to the lawful consignee and fully unloaded, and shall undertake to compensate the Client for all losses incurred as a result thereof in accordance with this Agreement. The Carrier is also fully liable for any damage caused to third parties during loading, unloading, reloading, or any other cargo related operations, including but not limited to bodily injury or death, damage to or destruction of third party property, as well as any related direct and indirect costs, claims, penalties, actions, and losses, regardless of whether such damage is caused to the cargo or not.

18.If, during transportation, the cargo is lost, damaged, partially, or completely destroyed, or if any other improper performance of this Agreement occurs, the Carrier is not entitled to claim full payment for the transportation.

19.The Carrier undertakes to fully compensate for any damage caused to the cargo based on the cargo damage assessment and/or calculation provided by the Client, the Client's customer, the consignor, the consignee, or the cargo owner, including but not limited to: reduction in cargo value (depreciation), wear, reduction in weight or quality, loss of residual value, as well as all costs incurred in determining the cargo value and damage, and any other necessary and justified expenses. For the purposes of this clause, the Parties expressly agree that the Carrier, under this Agreement, assumes an unconditional obligation to compensate for cargo depreciation as damage. Furthermore, the Carrier confirms that, by this Agreement, it agrees in advance and unconditionally accepts the determination and/or calculation of cargo depreciation when such depreciation is determined by at least one of the following methods:

19.1.according to the damage assessment rules applied by the manufacturer, the Client, the consignor, or the consignee;

19.2.according to methodologies, practices, or calculation models commonly used and widely recognized in the market;

19.3.based on an expert's opinion, market data, manufacturer's policies, changes in the cargo's sales status (including cases where the cargo can no longer be sold as new), or other objective criteria. Failure to comply with this clause (19–19.3) shall be considered a material breach of the Agreement. Once the Client has actually compensated the damage to the customer, consignor, consignee, or cargo owner, the amount compensated by the Client shall be deemed the minimum loss of the Client, which the Carrier must reimburse in full. The Parties confirm that the set off of mutual claims performed by the Client and its counterparty shall be regarded as actual compensation of damage, and the document confirming such set off shall be considered a valid and sufficient document substantiating the losses incurred by the Client.

20.If the Carrier does not prove that it is not liable for the damage caused or the losses incurred, the Client shall have the right to set off the established amount of losses against the transportation fee payable to the Carrier, and if the amount of losses exceeds the transportation fee, to require the Carrier to pay the remaining amount. The Client shall also have the right to withhold all or part of the payment if there are unresolved claims regarding cargo damage, loss, or theft for which the Carrier is liable, as well as in cases where the Carrier refuses or improperly cooperates in the investigation, resolution, or compensation of the damage incurred. If the transportation fee was paid before the information about the damage or losses was received, the Carrier must compensate the established amount of losses no later than within five (5) calendar days from the date of the Client's notice and reimburse all expenses incurred by the Client related to the administration of the damage and the determination of the losses.

21.The Carrier is prohibited, on any grounds, from detaining the transported Cargo, interrupting the transportation of the Cargo without the Client's instruction, or unloading the Cargo at any location other than the agreed place of unloading/destination. In the event of non compliance with this condition, the Carrier shall, at the Client's request, pay the Client a penalty of EUR 2,000 (two thousand euros) for each day of Cargo detention or for each day of such violations, until the Carrier remedies them.

Incident Reporting and Information

22.The Carrier must directly inform the Client within 2 (two) hours from the moment it becomes aware, or should have become aware, of any problems arising during transportation: delays, cargo shortage/damage/loss, reloading, downtime, technical malfunctions, traffic accidents, customs or border disruptions, intermediate stops unrelated to transportation, or any other circumstances that may affect deadlines or cargo safety.
The notice shall be provided by phone and email, indicating: the car transporter and trailer license plate numbers, location (GPS coordinates), time of the incident, change in ETA, a brief description, and including photos, CMR remarks, and official documents.

The Carrier must immediately take reasonable measures to mitigate damage and comply with written instructions provided by the Client (by email / TMS).

23.The Client is responsible for providing accurate information, including all loading and unloading details, and any other information required for transportation, customs, and other formalities.
When transporting cargo subject to customs procedures, the Carrier must comply with all applicable legal requirements governing customs procedures and correctly perform all related steps, including but not limited to: cargo declaration, submission of required documents to customs, calculation and payment of duties, taxes, and fees, cargo labeling, and execution of any other required formalities.
The Carrier must immediately inform the Client about any customs requirements, inquiries, detentions, or other customs related actions that may affect cargo delivery, and must cooperate in resolving such issues. The Carrier is responsible for ensuring that the documents submitted to customs are accurate, complete, and submitted on time. The Client must provide the Carrier with all necessary information and documents. If the information provided by the consignor is inaccurate or incomplete, the Carrier must promptly inform the Client.

Quality Rules and Liability

24.All rules of the Client and/or the Client's customer, manufacturers, terminals, parking areas, loading and/or unloading locations, as well as general transportation, safety, technical and operational rules, and any instructions provided in writing or by any other means applicable to the specific transportation, shall be considered an integral part of this Agreement. The Carrier undertakes to comply with all such rules throughout the entire transportation process. The Carrier shall be liable for any violations, losses, penalties, or other consequences arising from failure to comply with these rules or instructions.

25.In the event of non compliance with quality requirements and loading and/or unloading requirements, as well as the rules of manufacturers (OEM), consignors, consignees, parking areas, terminals, or other cargo related rules, and in the event of non compliance with general, widely known and applicable legal requirements, industry standards, safety, or conduct regulations, the Carrier shall compensate all losses incurred by the Client as a result, including those compensated or required to be compensated by the Client to the consignor, consignee, manufacturer, or any other third party.

The Client has the right to unilaterally reject and return the Carrier's VAT invoice if the requirements set out in this clause are not met.

Demurrage (Waiting Time)

36.By agreement of the Parties, for international transportation within the territory of the European Union, the first 24 hours for loading and the first 24 hours for unloading are considered free allowable time. During this period, the Client does not pay the Carrier for the car transporter's waiting time.
The waiting time is calculated from the moment the car transporter arrives at the loading/unloading location at the agreed time (or, if it arrives earlier, from the agreed arrival time) until the completion of loading/unloading.
If the free waiting time is exceeded due to reasons not attributable to the carrier, the client must pay the carrier a compensation of EUR 100 for each full waiting day. Waiting time shorter than 24 hours is compensated proportionally — EUR 25 for each 6 hour period.
The Carrier must substantiate the waiting (demurrage) period by providing confirmation from the consignor or consignee indicating the arrival and departure dates and times of the car transporter.
If the waiting time (demurrage) occurs due to the Carrier's fault (eg, late arrival or incorrect documents), no demurrage fee shall be paid.
