Clause 18-69. Intervention by a foreign State power, piracy
If the assured has been deprived of the MOU by an intervention by a foreign State power for which the insurer is liable under Cl. 2-9, the assured may claim for a total loss if the MOU has not been released within twelve months from the day the intervention took place.
If the MOU has been captured by pirates or taken away from the assured by similar unlawful interventions for which the insurer is liable under Cl. 2-9, the assured may claim for a total loss if the MOU has not been recovered within twelve months from the day the intervention took place.

If the assured has brought a claim for a total loss and the time-limits stipulated have expired, it is irrelevant for the assured’s claim that the MOU is released at a later time.
