German term or phrase: (ohne Verpflichtung) zum Protest
I especially don't get the "zum Protest" bit. Is it Austrian, or just something German I haven't heard before?

Wechsel und Schecks werden nur nach besonderer Vereinbarung und nur zahlungshalber *ohne Verpflichtung zum Protest* angenommen. Alle Einziehungs- und Diskontspesen gehen zu Lasten des Auftraggebers.

Bills of exchange and cheques are only accepted pursuant a special agreement and only on a cash basis *without obligation zum Protest*. All collection and discount expenses shall be borne by the ordering party.
