date. Fees do not include any tax, including but not limited to Value
Added Tax, Goods and Services Tax, withholding taxes, turnovertaxes, surcharges or duties as required by law, and if required, anysuch tax or duty is chargeable to the Client and payable by the Clientin addition to the above referenced fees. The Client shall pay the fullFees as invoiced irrespective of whether the Client is required by law
to withhold any taxes or duties from the invoiced amount. LR
reserves the right to raise interim invoices for Services provided,
calculated on a pro rata basis. LR reserves the right to chargeinterest accruing on a daily basis at an annual rate of 2% above thegreater of the London Interbank Offered Base Rate (LIBOR) (or theequivalent in the country where the Client maintains its principal
office) on any amount remaining unpaid beyond the due date, andmay withhold any or all Services until the arrears, including interest,
are paid in full. LR may at its sole discretion at any time allocate
payment received from the Client to satisfy other earlier invoices thatremain unpaid by the Client.
3. LR reserves the right to charge for any work that is additional tothat originally quoted.
4. LR will keep confidential and not use or disclose to any third party
outside the LR Group any data, plan or other written technicalinformation (the Information) received from the Client except as may
be required by law or as may be authorised by the Client, or as
referenced below. This obligation will not apply to any Information
that: (i) was in the LR Group's possession before its disclosure by oron behalf of the Client to the LR Group; or, (ii) is disclosed to a third
party through no fault of the LR Group; or, (iii) otherwise becomes

This obligation
will survive termination of the Contract.

LR will participate in the IACS Early Warning System which requires
LR to provide its fellow IACS members with relevant technical
GMS03-11-331 Request for the Classification or Re-Classification of Ships (2548) (2020.07)

information on serious hull structural and engineering systems

amounts then due to LR will immediately become payable.
9. LR’s Services do not assess compliance with any standard otherthan the applicable classification rules, international conventions, or
any other standards that are expressly agreed in writing by LR and
the Client. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, theissuance of a class certificate does not relieve the owner or operatorof the vessel of its non-delegable duty to maintain the vessel in aseaworthy condition.
10. If the Client requires classification Services relating to vessels,machinery, or equipment in a jurisdiction in which LR itself does not
do business, the Client hereby acknowledges and agrees that these
services will be performed by a subsidiary or affiliate of LR that is partof the LR Group and that is authorised to conduct classification

given by or on behalf of the LR Group, then LR will pay compensation
to the Client for its proved loss up to but not exceeding the amountof the fee (if any) charged by LR for that particular service,information, or advice.

indirect or consequential loss, damage, or expense sustained by any

information or advice given, or (iii) any act or omission that caused orcontributed to the issuance of any certificate, statement, data, orreport containing the information or advice. Nothing in these Terms

dispute or claim arising from or in connection with this Contract or
the Services provided hereunder. Nothing in this clause limits theright of LR to take debt collection proceedings against the Client inany other court of competent jurisdiction.

22. It is the responsibility of the Client to ensure that all surveys
necessary for the maintenance of class are carried out at the proper
time and in accordance with LR’s instructions.

surveys. The omission of notice, however, does not absolve the
Client from responsibility to comply with requirements formaintenance of class.
24. When the Regulations with regard to surveys on the hull,
equipment, or machinery have not been complied with and the ship
is thereby not entitled to retain class, the class may be suspended orwithdrawn. When it is considered that a Client’s failure to comply
with these Regulations is sufficiently serious, the suspension orwithdrawal of class may be extended to include other ships
controlled by the same Client’s representatives at the discretion of
the Committee.
25. When reported defects in the hull, equipment, or machinery arefound and the Client fails to repair these defects in accordance with
LR’s requirements, the class may be suspended or withdrawn.

only in a manner consistent with the proposed design criteria andany limits agreed at the time of classification. If any vessel orequipment operates outside these limits, such facts must be reported
to LR without delay. When it is found that a specialized ship is being
operated in a manner contrary to that agreed at the time ofclassification, or is being operated in environmental conditions which
are more onerous or in areas other than those agreed by theCommittee, the class will be liable to be automatically withdrawn orsuspended.

REQUEST FOR THE CLASSIFICATION OR RE­
CLASSIFICATION OF AN EXISTING SHIP/VESSEL

If there are any problems in completing any of the above fields, the CFO is to contact Entry into Class/TOC as soon
as possible.
Statutory Services
For guidance on this section, please refer to Class Direct INFO, notably the relevant Country File for the proposed
flag administration. Change of Flag instructions can also be generated from Class Direct INFO.
Where the Client requests certification for a proposed flag which is not a signatory to the appropriate
convention/code, the Client should be advised that LR is unable to issue the requested certification. However, LR
could issue a ‘Statement of Compliance’ indicating the degree of compliance the ship has with the appropriate
convention/code.
Where the Client requests certification for a proposed flag which is a signatory to the appropriate
convention/code, but for which LR is not authorised to undertake the survey, the Client should be advised tocontact the proposed flag administration for clarification as to who will undertake the survey and who will issue
the requested certification. In these instances, the Client should also be advised that, where no such clarification is
obtained, LR could issue a ‘Statement of Compliance’ indicating the degree of compliance the ship has with theappropriate convention/code. LR should be advised of certificates issued by third parties and request copies. It
should be made clear that a ‘Statement of Compliance’ without reference to government authorisation would be
issued in good faith as documentary evidence of compliance, but that LR could not guarantee its acceptance byPort Authorities. Some Port Authorities only recognise certificates which state that they are issued by, or on behalfof, the Flag Administration.
Certificates can also be issued for the International Convention ratified (e.g. SOLAS 1960), with an attachment
signifying that the ship complies with a later Convention.
Where the Client requests certification for a ship which is not required to comply with a particularconvention/code, the Client should be advised that LR would not normally issue the requested certification.
However, LR could issue a ‘Statement of Compliance’ indicating the degree of compliance the ship has with theappropriate convention/code. If the Client insists on a certificate being issued, the Client should be advised that LR
will need to approach the flag administration to obtain authorisation to issue the requested certification. However,before any such approach can be made, the Client should advise LR of any non-compliance for which they require
exemptions to be obtained from the flag administration.
Where ‘Statements of Compliance’ are required, these should be entered under ‘OTHERS’.
Approvals to be Carried Out
Selection of any of these boxes plus selection of Tonnage boxes implies the need to involve a Technical Support
Office (TSO) to conduct the requested approvals. The engagement of a TSO should be agreed before signing theForm 2548.
Terms and Conditions
Please ensure that you spend sufficient time reading through the terms and conditions before proceeding.
Excepting para. 2, there shall be no amendment, nor deletion of any of the clauses.
Whilst completing Form 2548, please ensure that the correct LR legal entity is entered.

the owners name is clear and readable.

Additional Guidance regarding Sale and Purchase (S&P)
If TOC is planned as part of the ship’s Sale and Purchase, it is vital that the CFO obtains the Bill of Sale from the
Client. This is the only documentation acceptable within the TOC Agreement by IACS Members. If this is notavailable at the time of signing the Form 2548, please obtain a copy of the Owner’s Authorisation form from Entry
into Class/TOC which will need to be signed by the current Registered Owner who is selling the ship. Application
for TOC through IACS can only be made when either the Bill of Sale or the Owner’s Authorisation can besubmitted together with the signed Form 2548 contract.
Contract Amendments
If amendments are required to a signed Form 2548, the CFO is to advise Entry into Class/TOC of the necessary
additions/amendments as soon as possible.
Alternatively the amended Form 2548 can be annotated by both parties and re-submitted to Entry into Class/TOC.
In all cases of amendments to a signed Form 2548, the responsible LR signatory should ensure that any
requirements resulting from such amendments are fully understood and communicated immediately toappropriate parties, such as the relevant SDO and anyone else to whom the previous version had been transmitted.
Where a request for classification is cancelled after a Form 2548 has been signed by the Client, the CFO is to advise
Entry into Class/TOC at once.
