If a buyer refuses to honor the contract due to drop in commodities. For example if a spot contract was arranged for the purchase of coal at a certain price and if the price drops after the loading than the buyer stands to lose a substantial amount of money and hence they decide not to honor the contract.
When the seller or the buyer is too late in executing the trade under normal vessel and product scheduling time frames.
If the ship is unable to unload a cargo at a specified port due to unfavorable conditions like bad weather etc. the cargo is classified distressed is gotten rid of, before reaching the next port.
