Subject to Clause 9.7.2, neither Party shall be considered in breach of the Contract, or liable for any loss or damage which may be suffered by the other Party, as a direct or indirect result of the performance of any of the first Party's obligations under the Contract being prevented, hindered or delayed by reason of strike, lock-out, stoppage, restraint of labour, government action, war, terrorism, storm or any other circumstances or events beyond such first Party's reasonable control (Force Majeure).

9.8 索赔期限。客户对Biocair所提供服务提出的任何索赔均应当在知道或应当知道导致索赔的事件或发生之日起14天内书面通知Biocair。任何未在上述期限内提出的索赔应当被视为放弃索赔且被禁止，除非客户可以举证证明其在上述索赔期限内无法履行通知义务并且事后已经在第一时间发出了索赔主张。尽管有前述规定，Biocair仍将无需对其提供的服务（或应当提供确认提供的服务）承担任何责任，除非该等索赔是在引起对Biocair提出索赔事件或发生之日起9个月内已经提出并书面通知了Biocair。
Time limits for claims. Any claim by Customer against Biocair arising in respect of any Services must be made in writing and notified to Biocair within 14 days of the date upon which Customer became or should have become aware of any event or occurrence alleged to give rise to such claim, and any claim not so made and notified shall be deemed to be waived and absolutely barred except in the case that Customer can show that it was impossible for it to comply with this time limit and that it has made the claim as soon as it was reasonably possible for it to do so. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Biocair shall in any event be discharged of all liability whatsoever howsoever arising in respect of any Services provided (or which should have been provided) unless the applicable claim is issued and written notice thereof given to Biocair within nine months from the date of the event or occurrence alleged to give rise to a cause of action against Biocair.

Biocair's employees and subcontractors etc. Under no circumstances shall Customer make any claim against any directors, officers, employees, subcontractors or agents of Biocair, or against any other persons connected with Biocair, in any manner under or in connection with the Contract. Any such claim made by a Consignee, Owner or other third party shall be deemed for the purposes of the Contract (and in particular for the purposes of Clause 9.6.1.2) to be a claim against Biocair.
9.10 保险。Biocair不会以客户名义购买任何保险。但是，如果客户要求，Biocair同意为自身扩大与其提供服务的风险和责任相关的保险范围，并根据合同规定相应增加其责任限额。该等责任限额的增加只有在Biocair的授权代表签署相关书面协议并在Biocair收到出险事故的索赔款项后才能生效。Biocair有权就以上扩大投保范围的开支向客户收取相关费用和合理的管理费。
Insurance. Biocair will not effect any insurance on behalf of Customer. However, if requested by Customer, Biocair may agree to arrange enhancements to its own insurance cover as it applies to risks and liabilities in connection with the Services, and to accept increases in the limits of its liability under the Contract accordingly. Any such increases will be effective only if agreed in writing by a duly authorised representative of Biocair, and subject to Biocair (on the basis it shall use reasonable efforts to do so) obtaining the applicable payment from its insurers in the event of a claim. Biocair shall be entitled to charge Customer the cost of effecting the applicable enhancements to Biocair's insurance cover as above, plus a reasonable administrative fee.
