• Terms and conditions for Regular Export Collection

    1 This collection is subject to the Uniform Rules for Collections, International Chamber of
    Commerce Publication number 522 or any successor publication in force from time to time.

    2 The choice of collecting bank rests with Lloyds TSB Bank plc, unless specific
    instructions are given on this form to present through a named bank direct, without
    the intervention of an intermediary.

    3 Unless otherwise instructed, unaccepted term bills will be sent for acceptance and,
    following acceptance, will be retained by the collecting bank, pending presentation
    for payment at maturity. Airmail is used wherever possible unless otherwise
    instructed. Duplicate documents are also sent by airmail.

    4 Unless expressly provided to the contrary herein in Clause 5, no person other than
    you and Lloyds TSB Bank plc shall have rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third

    5.1 you acknowledge and agree that:

    5.1.1 each of the above banks has appointed Lloyds TSB Bank plc as its agent for
    the purpose of international banking transactions carried out at the request
    of its customers. Accordingly, if you are a customer of one of these banks,
    although Lloyds TSB Bank plc will effect the transaction contemplated in
    these terms and conditions in its own name, you acknowledge and agree
    that it will do so as agent for your bank and that bank will indemnify
    Lloyds TSB Bank plc in respect of the transaction.

    accordingly to give effect to this clause.

    5.1.3 Lloyds TSB Bank plc may require the disclosure by Lloyds TSB Scotland plc,
    Lloyds TSB Offshore Limited, Lloyds TSB Private Banking Limited or Bank of
    Scotland plc (as the case may be) of information relating to its accounts
    (including information stored on its database), and that therefore Lloyds TSB
    Scotland plc, Lloyds TSB Offshore Limited, Lloyds TSB Private Banking Limited
    or Bank of Scotland plc (as applicable) is authorised to disclose all such
    information as may be requested by Lloyds TSB Bank plc for the purpose of
    carrying out international banking transactions.

    5.2 in any case where you have given Lloyds TSB Scotland plc, Lloyds TSB Offshore
    Limited, Lloyds TSB Private Banking Limited or Bank of Scotland plc information about
    individuals you represent and confirm that those individuals have appointed you
    to act for them and consent to the processing of personal data for the purpose of
    carrying out international transactions and to the transfer of that information abroad
    and to receive any data protection notices on their behalf.

    5.3 the account details to be entered into the application for the transaction
    contemplated in these terms and conditions should be those of your appropriate
    account with your bank which will be debited or credited with any sums due in
    respect of the transaction.

    6 Lloyds TSB Bank plc and/or any member of the Lloyds Banking Group may be subject
    to sanctions and/or embargos imposed by the international community including
    the UK, EU, UN and the USA. Lloyds TSB Bank plc may not accept instructions from
    the collecting bank or may refuse to receive from or may return to the collecting
    bank any payment or may refuse to make any payment to you or may refuse to take
    any action under or in connection with this collection if it would result, or is in our
    reasonable opinion likely to result, in a breach by Lloyds TSB Bank plc or any member
    of the Lloyds Banking Group or any of their respective employees of any sanction
    or embargo whether or not imposed in the UK and Lloyds TSB Bank plc will not be
    liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense arising out of or in connection with any
    failure to pay or to act as a result of any such sanction or embargo. Lloyds TSB Bank
    plc and/or its agents shall be permitted to disclose to the relevant authorities such
    information related to the collection as may be required.

    7 Lloyds TSB Bank plc shall not be liable for any loss of profits, business, data or
    information or for any incidental, indirect, special or consequential damages whether
    arising from negligence, breach of contract or otherwise, even if informed of the
    possibility of those losses or damages. Except as otherwise specified herein Lloyds TSB
    Bank plc shall not be liable for any direct losses arising out of or relating to any of its
    actions or omissions to act in respect of the transaction contemplated by these terms
    and conditions, except to the extent that any such losses are caused by Lloyds TSB
    Bank plc’s wilful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence of Lloyds TSB Bank plc.

    8 These terms and conditions and any disputes or claims arising out of or in connection
    with its subject matter (including non-contractual obligations) shall be governed by,
    construed and take effect in all respects in accordance with the laws of England. The
    parties irrevocably agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts
    to settle any dispute or claim that arises out of or in connection with these terms and
    conditions (and any non-contractual obligations). You acknowledge that the use of
