(810 ILCS 5/2-322) (from Ch. 26, par. 2-322)

    Sec. 2-322. Delivery "ex-ship".

    (1) 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 which has reached a place at the named port of destination where goods of the kind are usually discharged.

    (2) Under such a term unless otherwise agreed

        (a) the seller must discharge all liens arising out     of the carriage and furnish the buyer with a direction which puts the carrier under a duty to deliver the goods; and         (b) the risk of loss does not pass to the buyer until     the goods leave the ship's tackle or are otherwise properly unloaded.
