Update on Maersk Peak Season

Dear customers:

The global spread of Covid-19 has brought unprecedented impact andchallenges to the development of world trade and economy as well as theoperation of supply chains. With the rapid recovery of production and

consumption around the world, we notice the strong demand in China's exportmarket. Maersk has been working with customers and partners through

various initiatives to find solutions to speed up empty container movement andminimise the impact.


According to the situation now, we update the following information


About Vessel and Terminal
Due to various factors, it may take longer for ships and containers enteringfrom ports outside China to complete quarantine inspection at Chinese ports.
In addition, the congestion of overseas ports makes the on-time schedule rateof all routes unstable at present. Usually with the onset of winter in the
northern Hemisphere,ship delays caused by extreme weather increase
accordingly. In order to minimize the impact on customers, we adjust the routenetwork operation to ensure that your goods can get the best transportationsolution in the existing network and reach the port of destination as soon aspossible.
We are doing our best to meet our customers' demand for stability services.


Supply of empty containers

Over the past few months,we have learned that the market is facinga

shortage of containers, especially on the strong global backbone routes, where40-foot containers are in short supply. This trend has been exacerbated bydemand fluctuations and bottlenecks in global supply chains due to

Covid-19 We constantly communicate with customers and partners to findsolutions to speed up empty container transport, including optimizing emptycontainer allocation and negotiating container leasing plans with nearby container factories.


As many countries around the world are currently experiencing a national

lockdown due to the second Covid-1 9 outbreak, we estimate that the shortage

of empty containers will continue, with export bookings at Chinese ports having

to face booking cancellations or delays due to a shortage of containers.In

order to minimize the impact on the customer's shipping plan, we recommend

that the customer switch to other boxes [such as 20GP, 40GP, 40NQR (frozen substitute)] to replace the 40ft high cabinets.
