某年我国某公司与英国某公司成交某食品1500吨,每吨348磅CIF伦敦,总金额为522000英镑,交货期为当年59月。由于当时我方公司缺货,只交了450吨,其余1050吨经双方协商同意延长至下一年度内交货。次年,我国南方大部分地区发生自然灾害。于是,我方公司以不可抗力为理由,要求免除交货责任。但对方回电拒绝,并称该商品市场价格上涨,由于我方公司未交货已使其损失15万英镑,要求我方公司无偿提供其他品种的同类食品抵偿其损失。我方公司对此项要求不同意。,该外国公司根据仲裁条款规定向中国仲裁机构提出仲裁,仲裁申请中强调我方公司所称不可抗力的理由不充分,并指出我方公司如不愿以商品抵偿其损失,就坚持索赔15万英镑。在仲裁机构的调解下,双方经过多次协商,我方公司赔偿对方41820英镑结案。,Exercise,Please
