2. It rests with the discretion of the Museum as to whether, or for how long, objects lent to it shall be exhibited to the public.

3. In receiving or surrendering loans of imported objects the Museum requires that the lender comply with all government customs regulations.

4. Permission to copy or photograph objects lent to the Museum, except for Museum purposes, will not be given without the consent of the lender.
