Accordingly this letter of protest is lodged in lieu of endorsing the Bill of Lading with the ship's figures and the Bill of Lading must be

quantity actually shipped.
I hereby give you notice that you will be held liable to indemnify the Owners or Charterers or both to any loss they or either of them may
suffer by reason of your failure to notify the transferee and any subsequent holder of the Bill of Lading of the contents of this letter of
protest:
On behalf of the Owner and Charterers I further reserve the right to take such further action as may be considered necessary to protect the
