CLAUSE 1 CREWED CHARTER SERVICES

CCM BVI LLC (“CCM” or “the Company”) is a United States limited liability company organized in the State of Delaware, with its U.S. business/mailing address at 1906 Discovery Blvd, Cedar BLVD, Texas 78613-7205, United States, as reflected on its IRS EIN documentation.

CCM BVI LLC provides yacht charter and related services in the British Virgin Islands. The location of the Company's charter operations in the British Virgin Islands does not alter CCM BVI LLC's status as a United States company organized in Delaware.

​

The Company agrees to provide the Yacht named above, “Secret Oasis,” together with a qualified Captain and Crew, to the Charterer for the Charter Period specified in this Agreement on a fully crewed basis OR captain only basis.  The Crew will operate the Yacht, prepare agreed meals, provide customary onboard service, assist with tender operations, and conduct safety briefings.

No control, command, or navigation of the Yacht is transferred to the Charterer at any time. Additional services or special requests are subject to prior written agreement and availability.

CLAUSE 2 DELIVERY, RE-DELIVERY, CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT

The Company shall deliver the Yacht clean, seaworthy, and in good working order at the Place of Delivery and time stated above. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Charter shall commence and conclude at Soper's Hole Marina, Tortola, British Virgin Islands, and the Yacht shall be re-delivered no later than 10:00 AM on the final day. Late arrival by the Charterer does not automatically extend the Charter Period. All guests and personal belongings must be ashore by the agreed check-out time unless otherwise agreed in writing.

CLAUSE 3 CRUISING AREA AND ITINERARY

The Charter shall be restricted to the Cruising Area stated above. Any proposed itinerary is an outline only and is not guaranteed. The Captain retains sole discretion over ports, anchorages, routes, destinations and activities, and may alter, delay, shorten or cancel any part of the itinerary because of weather, sea conditions, port or berth availability, mechanical concerns, government requirements, safety considerations, operating conditions, or the comfort of Guests and Crew. Every reasonable effort will be made to accommodate the Charterer's preferences, but neither the Company nor the Captain is liable for the non-availability of a particular berth or anchorage.

CLAUSE 4 GUESTS, RESPONSIBILITIES, CONDUCT AND HEALTH

The Charterer is responsible for the conduct of all members of the charter party and shall not permit more Guests aboard than the numbers stated in the Charter Particulars without the Captain's prior consent. Guests shall treat the Yacht, furnishings, equipment, water toys, Crew and other persons with reasonable care and respect and shall promptly follow the Captain's safety instructions. Infants and children remain the sole responsibility of an adult member of the charter party and must be supervised at all times. The Charterer confirms that Guests are medically fit for the voyage and hold any required travel documents or visas.

CLAUSE 5 CAPTAIN'S AUTHORITY

The Yacht shall remain under the exclusive command and control of the Captain appointed by the Company. The Captain has full and final authority concerning navigation, anchoring, weather, sea conditions, safety, itinerary, embarkation and disembarkation, operation of the Yacht, and use of its equipment. The Captain may refuse or stop any activity or request that, in the Captain's reasonable judgment, would be unsafe, unlawful, or contrary to the interests of the Yacht, Crew or Guests.

CLAUSE 6 PAYMENT TERMS AND CANCELLATION POLICY

a) Booking Deposit. A deposit of fifty percent (50%) of the total Charter Fee is due and payable within seventy-two (72) hours of booking. The Charter shall not be confirmed, and the dates shall not be held, until this deposit is received by the Company in cleared funds.

b) Final Balance. The remaining fifty percent (50%) of the Charter Fee shall be paid in full no later than sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of the Charter Period. Failure to pay the Final Balance by this date may, at the Company's discretion, be treated as a cancellation by the Charterer under sub-clause (d) below.

c) Cancellation More Than 60 Days Before Charter. If the Charterer cancels the Charter more than sixty (60) days before the commencement of the Charter Period, the fifty percent (50%) Booking Deposit shall be refunded to the Charterer, less a non-refundable administrative fee of five hundred United States dollars (US $500), which the Company shall retain in all circumstances.

d) Cancellation 60 Days or Less Before Charter. If the Charterer cancels the Charter sixty (60) days or less before the commencement of the Charter Period, the fifty percent (50%) Booking Deposit is non-refundable in full.

e) This cancellation policy applies to cancellation by the Charterer only. Cancellation or non-performance by the Company, and delay or disablement of the Vessel, are addressed separately and shall be handled fairly and in good faith, having regard to the circumstances, including any applicable insurance.

f) All payments shall be made in cleared funds to the Company's designated account as advised at the time of booking.

CLAUSE 7 INCLUDED SERVICES, OPERATING COSTS AND APA

Unless the booking confirmation or invoice states otherwise, the Charter Fee includes the Yacht, Crew wages, standard onboard equipment, vessel insurance, fuel, ordinary dockage and agreed provisioning. Special requests or extraordinary items requested by the Charterer may be charged at cost.

CLAUSE 8 WATER SPORTS AND ACTIVITIES

Swimming, snorkeling, paddle boarding, tender use, personal watercraft where permitted, and other water activities are subject to the Captain's approval, prevailing conditions, and applicable law. The Captain may exclude any Guest who behaves unsafely, is impaired by alcohol or drugs, or disregards safety instructions. Guests shall use safety equipment as directed, supervise children, avoid touching coral or marine life, and comply with National Parks and environmental rules. Participation is voluntary and at the Guest's own risk, except to the extent liability cannot lawfully be excluded.

CLAUSE 9 SECURITY DEPOSIT AND DAMAGE

Any Security Deposit stated above may be applied toward loss or damage to the Yacht, its equipment or tenders caused by the Charterer or Guests beyond fair wear and tear. The Charterer is responsible for loss or damage caused by intentional acts, willful misconduct, reckless conduct, unauthorized use of equipment, or unlawful acts of the Charterer or any Guest. The Company shall provide reasonable documentation of any claimed loss or damage, and any unused portion of the Security Deposit shall be refunded within a reasonable period after the Charter.

CLAUSE 10 INSURANCE AND PERSONAL PROPERTY

The Company shall maintain appropriate marine insurance on the Yacht and Crew, subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions of the applicable policies. The Charterer is strongly advised to obtain independent travel, cancellation, medical and personal-effects insurance. The Company is not responsible for loss of or damage to personal property unless caused by the Company's proven negligence.

CLAUSE 11 FOOD, ALLERGIES, MEDICAL INFORMATION, SMOKING AND PETS

Before embarkation, the Charterer shall disclose known food allergies, dietary restrictions, serious medical conditions, mobility limitations and other information reasonably necessary for safe service. The Company and Crew will make reasonable efforts to accommodate disclosed needs but cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment. Smoking or vaping is not permitted inside the Yacht and is allowed outside only where designated by the Captain. Pets are not permitted without prior written approval.

CLAUSE 12 FORCE MAJEURE, SEVERE WEATHER AND COMPANY NON-PERFORMANCE

Neither party shall be liable for failure or delay caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including severe weather, named storms, government orders, port closures, natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, war, civil disturbance, strikes, or acts of God. The Company may alter the itinerary, delay departure, require disembarkation, reschedule, or cancel an affected portion when reasonably necessary. Where the Company cannot perform the Charter or the Yacht is materially disabled, the parties shall work in good faith toward a fair resolution, which may include repair, substitution where available, rescheduling, credit, or an appropriate refund for the affected portion. The Company is not responsible for airfare, hotels, transportation, meals ashore, or other consequential expenses except where required by law.

CLAUSE 13 MECHANICAL ISSUES

The Company will use reasonable efforts to keep the Yacht in proper operating condition. The Charterer shall notify the Captain promptly of any problem and allow the Company a reasonable opportunity to investigate and make repairs. Failure of non-essential amenities that does not materially prevent use of the Yacht shall not automatically entitle the Charterer to a refund.

CLAUSE 14 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND PROHIBITED CONDUCT

The Charterer and Guests shall comply with the laws and regulations of the British Virgin Islands and any other jurisdiction visited, including customs, immigration, environmental, fishing, marine park and public health requirements. Illegal drugs, unlicensed weapons, unlawful activity, violence, harassment, threatening conduct, excessive intoxication, or behavior endangering any person or property are prohibited. The Company or Captain may terminate the Charter without refund where serious or persistent misconduct creates a safety risk, violates law, seriously disrupts the Charter, or places the Yacht or Crew at risk.

CLAUSE 15 NON-ASSIGNMENT

The Charterer may not assign this Agreement, transfer the booking, resell any space, or sub-charter the Yacht without the Company's prior written consent.

CLAUSE 16 GOVERNING LAW, DISPUTES AND NOTICES

CCM BVI LLC is a limited liability company organized and legally registered in the State of Delaware, United States, with its U.S. business/mailing address at 1906 Discovery Blvd, Cedar BLVD, Texas 78613-7205, United States. CCM BVI LLC provides yacht charter and related tourism services, including services physically operated in the British Virgin Islands.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, and applicable federal laws of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

The parties shall first attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith discussion. Except where otherwise required by applicable law, any unresolved dispute arising from or relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the appropriate courts in the United States, unless the parties agree in writing to mediation or arbitration.

Because charter services may be physically performed in the British Virgin Islands or other jurisdictions, applicable local maritime, safety, immigration, customs, environmental, licensing, navigation and other mandatory operational laws and regulations may apply to those services. The application of such local operational requirements does not alter CCM BVI LLC's status as a United States company organized in Delaware.

Notices under this Agreement shall be given in writing by email or courier to the addresses stated in this Agreement or subsequently notified in writing.

CLAUSE 17 CREW GRATUITY

A crew gratuity of 15% to 20% of the total Charter Fee is customary and expected for the Captain and Crew. The exact gratuity within this range shall be at the Charterer's discretion, based on the level of service received. The Charterer may, at their sole discretion, provide a gratuity greater than 20%.

The gratuity may be paid directly to the Captain and Crew at the conclusion of the Charter in cash or by another accepted payment method.

If no gratuity is paid directly to the Captain and Crew before final disembarkation, the Charterer expressly authorizes CCM BVI LLC. to charge a gratuity equal to 15% of the total Charter Fee to the credit card or other payment method provided for the Charter.

Any gratuity collected by CCM BVI LLC. under this Clause shall be distributed to the Captain and Crew.
