AS 45.02.322

Delivery “ex-ship.”

Known as the Uniform Commercial Code

The act spans §§ 45–45 (615 sections).

(a) Unless otherwise agreed, a term for delivery of goods “ex-ship”, which means from the carrying vessel, or in equivalent language is not restricted to a particular ship and requires delivery from a ship that has reached a place at the named port of destination where goods of the kind are usually discharged.

(b) Under such a term, unless otherwise agreed, (1) the seller must discharge all liens arising out of the carriage and furnish the buyer with a direction that puts the carrier under a duty to deliver the goods; and

(2) the risk of loss does not pass to the buyer until the goods leave the ship's tackle or are otherwise properly unloaded.
