(1) This Bill of Lading shall be prima facie evidence of the receipt by the Carrier from the Shipper in apparent good order and condition, except as otherwise noted, of the total number of Containers or other packages or units indicated in the box on the face hereof entitled, '*Total No of Containers/Packages received by the Carrier'.

(2) Except as provided in Clause 11 (1), no representation is made by the Carrier as to the weight, *******s, measure, quantity, quality, de******ion, condition, marks, numbers or value of the Goods, and the Carrier shall be under no responsibility whatsoever in respect of such de******ion or particulars, which are unknown to him.

It is agreed that, whilst he retains the right so to do at his sole discretion, the Carrier is not at any time under any obligation to weight any Container or open any Container to make any check on the Goods therein or their stowage (see Clause 9).

(3) If any particulars of any Letter of Credit and/or Import Licence and/or Sale Contract and/or Invoice or Order number and/or details of any contract to which the Carrier is not a party are shown on the face of this Bill of Lading, such particulars are included solely at the request of the Merchant for his convenience. The Merchant agrees that the inclusion of such particulars shall not be regarded as a declaration of value and in no way increases the Carrier's liability under this Bill of Lading. The Merchant further agrees to indemnify the Carrier against all consequences of including such particulars in this Bill of Lading. The Merchant acknowledges that, except when the provisions of Clause7 (3) apply, the value of the Goods is unknown to the Carrier.
