of them, the formats and deadlines for its application.

a) Reduce Coefficients:

Página 5 de 22

E = Maximum length (m) M = Maximum beam (m)

P = Moulded depth (m)

In order to apply the reduction coefficient of this service (of an annual nature), it is necessary to present in this Port Authority the current form (it is in the download area of the APAC website) with the information indicated in it, before the arrival of the first vessel that is intended to be included in said service. Otherwise, the previous scales of the current year will not be taken into account. This request must be renewed annually (calendar year).

Any modification that will occur in the provision of the maritime service, in particular, the additions and cancellations of the ships assigned to it, as well as the modification of the ports included in the service, should always be requested

before the arrival of the ship.

If the ship, merchandise or port do not correspond to those included in the application, this scale will not be taken into account in the calculation of the service.

In order to apply the reduction coefficient of this service (of an annual nature), it is necessary to request the qualification of the maritime service to a certain type of traffic by presenting it in this Port Authority of the current form (it is in the download area) of the APAC website) with the information indicated therein, before the arrival of the first vessel that is intended to be included in said

service. Otherwise, the previous scales of the current year will not be taken into account. This request must be renewed annually (calendar year).

b) Discounts

To encourage better environmental practices (5%, see article 245). To increase the quality of service provision (5%, see article 245). Discounts on the vessel’s rate for environmental and/or quality are not applicable in longer stays. For other

discounts, see article 245.

Other discounts to T-1 are regulated in article 245.

Conditions to apply the following bonuses: - To encourage better environmental practices (Art. 245.1 RDL 2/2011)

- To increase the quality in the provision of services. (Art. 245.2 RDL 2/2011)

Página 6 de 22

for applying for application in the current format and which is in the download area of the APAC website, accompanying the same of the current documentation

in each case, and necessary, according to the bonus that is requested and that is detailed in each one of the sections of the responsible declaration form.

the date prior to the entry of the vessel in port, and always in any case before the completion of operations. The application date must therefore be prior to the start of operations, or in any case the first day of the ship in port. The presentation of the request after the completion of the operations supposes

the impossibility of applying the aforementioned requested bonus. Indicate that the supporting documentation presented must prove its validity, on the date of entry of the vessel to port. If the delivered documentation is not valid at that date, or has not been updated, it will also prevent the requested bonus application, since a positive resolution can not be made, in the first case because the request is extemporaneous to the operation and specific scale for the one that is requested, and in the second case, because the validity of the

documentation that would give rise to it is not proven, at the moment of the entry of the vessel in port

c) Vessels engaged in regular traffic with frequent, regular stopovers, particularly those devoted to short-distance maritime shipping lines, when the Port Authority is provided

with proof of the existence of a plan that ensures the delivery of waste generated by vessels covered by Annexes I and V, by means of a certificate issued by the Maritime Administration, as well as the payment of the corresponding rates in one of the ports located on the vessel's route, and which guarantees the collection of all the vessel's waste when making a stopover at said port, so that the storage capacity of each type of

waste is not exceeded on any of its voyages: 100 x [1- (0.30 / (n-1))] percent, where n is the mean number of different ports at which the shipping line stops-over for each seven-day period, and provided n is greater than or equal to 2. In any case, the aforementioned vessels shall pay the corresponding rate, in each port in which they make a stopover, at most once every 7 days, corresponding to the total amount of the fixed rate if a discharge has been made during said period. In the case of passenger ships, the certificate must determine the existence of a plan corresponding to the wastes

from Annex I and from Annex V, applying the discount to the part of the fixed rate associated with the basic amount R1 (Annex I) and/or R2 (Annex V), respectively, in those ports in which the discharge of the corresponding waste does not take place.

In case c), when the vessel has a plan that only ensures the delivery of solid waste from Annex V of MARPOL 73/78, the discount will be one third of the amount corresponding to

the same, in accordance with the provisions for said case. In the case of a passenger vessel, the discount will be applied to one third of the fixed rate corresponding to the basic amount R1, and on one hundred percent of the fixed rate corresponding to the basic amount R2. If the vessel has a plan that only ensures the delivery of liquid wastes from Annex I, the discount will be two thirds. In the case of a passenger vessel, the discount will be applied

to two thirds of the fixed rate corresponding to the basic amount R1, without the rebate being applied to that part of the fixed rate corresponding to the basic amount R2. The effective application of these bonuses, given its nature begged in accordance with the current regulations of application, requires the initiative of the interested party to

inform the Port Authority and certify the corresponding and current documentation at the

Página 14 de 22

time of the request. Which may give rise, where appropriate, to the application of the

bonus. For this, it will be an essential requirement to present the declaration responsible for

applying for application in the current format and which is in the download area of the APAC website, accompanying the same of the current documentation in each case, and necessary, according to the bonus that is requested and that is detailed in each one of the sections of the responsible declaration form. For its consideration, it will be essential that both the request by means of the RESPONSIBLE DECLARATION form, and the current accrediting documentation in each

case, be presented in the registry of the APAC on the date prior to the entry of the vessel in port, and always in any case before the completion of operations. The application date must therefore be prior to the start of operations, or in any case the first day of the ship in port. The presentation of the request after the completion of the operations supposes the impossibility of applying the aforementioned requested bonus. Indicate that the supporting documentation presented must prove its validity, on the date of entry of the

vessel to port. If the delivered documentation is not valid at that date, or has not been updated, it will also prevent the requested bonus application, since a positive resolution can not be made, in the first case because the request is extemporaneous to the operation and specific scale for the one that is requested, and in the second case, because the validity of the documentation that would give rise to it is not proven, at the moment of the entry of the vessel in port.

Exemptions (paid directly to the service provider):

- Exemption from the payment of the fixed fee for receiving waste generated by ships (Art. 132.11.b RDL 2/2011) The boats that are part of a port service will be exempt from the payment of the
