1. Special Discharging Clause Applicable to Brazil

Goods which cannot beе discharged direct to quays or landing places as well as goods which according to Brazi1ian customs regulations will not be admitted into the Custom Hou­se, can, if not immediately received on the ship's readiness to discharge on into lighters through the agents of the ship at the receiver's risk and expense or disposed of in other way. All and every responsibility on the part of the carrier shall cease as soon as the goods have been discharged. In case the carrier should cause the goods to be discharged into lighters procured by him or his agents, he shall be responsible accord­ing to the stipulations in the bill of lading until the delivery from the lighters but only for such goods, which are charter­ed for delivery on the quay and not for merchandize which, according to the bill of lading, is to be received by the con­signee free from alongside but for which lighters were not tendered in time and which therefore will be discharged into lighters by the carrier at the receiver's risk and expense. Especially when the goods, according to the Custom House regulations, have been delivered to the Custom House, the carrier shall never be responsible, if the goods on the part of the customs have been delivered over to any other person than the proper and legitimate receiver.
