A: Adjourned games
A1. (a) If a game is not finished at the end of the time prescribed for play, the arbiter
shall require the player having the move to 'seal' that move. The player must write his
move in unambiguous notation on his scoresheet, put his scoresheet and that of his
opponent in an envelope, seal the envelope and only then stop his clock without
starting the opponent's clock. Until he has stopped the clocks, the player retains the
right to change his sealed move. If, after being told by the arbiter to seal his move,
the player makes a move on the chessboard, he must write that same move on his
scoresheet as his sealed move.
(b) A player having the move, who adjourns the game before the end of the playing
session, shall be considered to have sealed at the nominal time for the end of the
session.
A2. The following shall be indicated upon the envelope:
(a) the names of the players
(b) the position immediately before the sealed move
(c) the time used by each player
(d) the name of the player who has sealed the move
(e) the number of the sealed move
(f) the offer of a draw, if the proposal was made before the adjournment of the game
(g) the date, time and venue of resumption of play.
A3. The arbiter shall check the accuracy of the information on the envelope and is
responsible for the safe-keeping of it.
A4. If a player proposes a draw after his opponent has sealed his move, the offer is
valid until the opponent has accepted it or rejected it as in Article 9.1.
A5. Before the game is to be resumed, the position immediately before the sealed
move shall be set up on the chessboard, and the times used by each player when the
game was adjourned shall be indicated on the clocks.
A6. If prior to the resumption the game is agreed drawn, or if one of the players
notifies the arbiter that he resigns, the game is concluded.
A7. The envelope shall be opened only when the player who must reply to the sealed
