Weight: 20kg

Converting the volume of the box to the weight: (60 × 60 × 40) ÷ 6000 = 24

Since 24 > 20, this box will be calculated according to the weight converted from the volume and the shipping cost of this box is 24 × 10,000 = 240,000 VND

(g) THE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH 7 APPLY EVEN IF THEY CAUSE ANY REMEDY OTHERWISE AVAILABLE TO FAIL OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE AND WITHOUT REGARD TO SWIFT247’ FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE OR DELAY OF PERFORMANCE.

8. Limitation of Actions

SWIFT247 will be waived for any liability for compensation to damages incurred by Customer, to the extent Laws do not mandatorily provide otherwise.

9. Payment and Credit Terms

Except to the extent SWIFT247 otherwise agrees, SWIFT247 has no obligation to make or incur any expense, guarantee or advance for any purpose on behalf of Customer.

10. Indemnification / Compensation

Customer shall indemnify/compensate SWIFT247 and hold SWIFT247 harmless from and against all charges, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, costs, expenses, payments or losses of any kind (including for purchase price, freight, storage, demurrage, detention, duties, taxes, fines, penalties, incidental, indirect, consequential or exemplary damages, and SWIFT247’ litigation expenses and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to any one or more of the following:

(a) Any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, undertaking, consent, or waiver by Customer;

At Customer’s expense SWIFT247 may employ attorneys and other professionals of its own choice in connection with any indemnified/compensated matter. Customer’s indemnity/compensation obligation in this paragraph shall not apply to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction enters a final, non-appealable judgment, specifically finding that the charge, claim, damage, liability, judgment, cost, expense, payment or loss was directly and proximately caused by SWIFT247’ gross negligence or willful misconduct.

11. Sale of Perishable Goods

Perishable goods or live animals which are unclaimed and for which Customer gives no instructions for disposition may be sold or otherwise disposed of without any advance notice to the Customer, owner, or consignee, and payment or tender of the net proceeds of any sale after deduction of charges is equivalent to delivery of the goods. If for any reason a shipment is refused or remains unclaimed at any place or is returned, the Customer must still pay SWIFT247 for all charges and expenses in connection with the goods. Nothing obligates SWIFT247 to forward, enter or clear the goods or arrange for their disposal.

12. General Lien on any Property

SWIFT247 has a general lien on any and all property (and documents relating thereto) now or hereafter in SWIFT247’ possession, custody or control or en route as security for all existing and future indebtedness and obligations of Customer to SWIFT247. This lien is in addition to any other rights and remedies SWIFT247 may have under other agreements or applicable Laws, and shall survive delivery or release of any property. SWIFT247 has the right to withhold delivery or release of any property if Customer is in breach of any indebtedness or obligation to SWIFT247, even if not related to such property. If any such indebtedness or obligation is unsatisfied, SWIFT247 may, in addition to all other rights and remedies under other agreements and/or applicable Laws, exercise all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under applicable Laws. Any notice required to be given of a sale or other disposition made at least ten (10) days before a proposed action constitutes fair and reasonable notice. Any surplus from the sale or other disposition, after deduction for all sums owed to SWIFT247, shall be transmitted to Customer, and Customer shall be liable for any deficiency. The value of the property on which SWIFT247 exercises its lien will equivalent to the amount of due debt of Customer payable to SWIFT247. SWIFT247 shall notify Customer in writing immediately when SWIFT247 exercises its lien on the property and the due amount that Customer is obliged to pay SWIFT247. After 45 (forty-five) days from the date of such notice, if Customer still fails to pay SWIFT247 the required amount, SWIFT247 is entitled to dispose of the property to pay for the sum owed to SWIFT247.

13. Compensation of SWIFT247

The compensation of SWIFT247 for its services and advances shall be included with and is in addition to the rates and charges of all third parties to handle, transport, load, unload, store, clear, enter, deliver, distribute or otherwise deal with the goods, and shall be exclusive of any brokerage, commissions, dividends or other revenue received by SWIFT247 from insurers or other Persons. Customer shall pay all costs, expenses and fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by SWIFT247 in connection with:

(a) The enforcement of payment or performance of any indebtedness or obligation of Customer (including by any action or participation in, or in connection with, a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, wherever pending) or

(b) Any dispute between SWIFT247 and Customer or any other Person. All amounts owed to SWIFT247 must be paid in the lawful currency specified in SWIFT247’ invoices in immediately available funds, without abatement, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment, and free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding for, any taxes, duties, confiscation, detention, or other matters. If any amount is not paid when due, it shall accrue interest until paid at one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (19.72% per annum).

14. Intellectual Property

Without SWIFT247’ prior written consent, Customer shall neither directly nor indirectly attempt to or actually disclose, use, re-create, duplicate, decode, alter, change, disassemble, decompile, or reverse engineer any Intellectual Property. Customer acknowledges and agrees that a violation of any of the foregoing shall cause irreparable harm to SWIFT247.

Customer further represents, warrants and covenants that it has obtained the proper consent from all data subjects to the disclosure and transfer of Customer Data to SWIFT247. In providing services to Customer, SWIFT247 may be required to share Customer Data with Governmental Units and may process Customer Data and thus act as a “data processor” or similar term under applicable Law with respect to such data and will process Customer Data in accordance with lawful instructions from Customer. SWIFT247 may use Customer Data as part of its Customer account opening, general administration process (e.g., in order to carry out compliance, financial checks, invoicing, or debt recovery), and otherwise in performing services. The information may be transferred to or accessible from SWIFT247’ offices around the world.

18. Booking and Cancellation Process

The booking will be made by the Customer, on the system provided by SWIFT247 (web/app), with the corresponding account issued by SWIFT247 or created by the customer. The system will perform load validation 24 hours before STD.

Customers are allowed to change booking information on SWIFT247’s system at least 08 hours before STD. SWIFT247 reserves the right to confirm or refuse the change of this information.

Cancellation on SWIFT247’s system (web/app) must be done at least 08 hours before STD. After 8 hours before STD, Customers are not entitled to cancel the reservation on the SWIFT247 system. SWIFT247 will not process any cancellation request from the Customer if the cancellation request arises during this period.

Note:

For hard block bookings: Customers are not allowed to change the type of goods after 8 hours before STD. If the customer shows up with goods with a lower value than the type of goods booked on the system, the freight for the shipment will be charged according to the type of goods with the higher freight rate.

For soft blocks: SWIFT247 recommends that customers DO NOT intentionally book loads with high-value type of goods but not in line with the actual goods categories of the shipment for the purpose of enjoying priority loading confirmation. In the event that SWIFT247 recognizes the above cases, we will not confirm the booking for shipments that require an operation to change the pre-booked type of goods.

Record changes in the type of booking goods per week	Sanctions applied
Twice	Admonish
Three times	Refusal to confirm the booking of a shipment on a flight with the goods category changed from high value to low value

19. No Show Policy

For shipments that have been booked, successfully charged on SWIFT247’s system and confirmed by SWIFT247, if the actual shipping weight does not reach at least 50% of the weight according to the load confirmation or the goods are not shipped to the warehouse at the time of shipment but the booking is not cancelled within 8 hours before the schedule flight departure time, the Customer will be subject to the loading penalty as follows:

No Show condition	No Show record per week	Sanctions applied
No Show from 50% on a confirmed booking	Twice	Admonish (through email)
From the third time	No load is allowed for booking for 1 day on No Show flight segment
From the fourth time	No load is allowed for booking for 3 days on No Show flight segment

20. Miscellaneous
