a. Carrier has opted to be exempt from tariff publication requirements
pursuant to 46 C.F.R. 530, 531 and 532. In that respect Carrier has
opted for the use of Negotiated Rate Arrangements ("NRAs") and may also
opt to utilize NVOCC Service Arrangements ("NSAs"). NRA means the
written and binding arrangement between an NRA shipper or consignee and
an eligible NVOCC to provide specific transportation service for a
stated cargo quantity, from origin to destination on and after receipt
of the cargo by the Carrier or its agent or the originating carrier in
the case of through transportation.
b. Carrier's Rules are provided free of charge to Shipper and Consignee at
www.ratewave.com/Pelorus/index.htm containing the terms and conditions
governing the charges, classifications, rules, regulations and practices
of Carrier.
c. Carrier may issue written quotations, booking confirmations, e-mail
communications and other writings with applicable rates and charges for
the shipments subject of the NRA, and shipper must provide the Carrier
with a signed agreement, or send carrier a written communication,
including an email, indicating acceptance of the NRA terms, or book a
shipment after receiving the NRA terms from the Carrier, if the Carrier
incorporates in the NRA quoted terms the following text in bold font and
all uppercase letters "THE SHIPPER'S BOOKING OF CARGO AFTER RECEIVING
THE TERMS OF THIS NRA OR NRA AMENDMENT CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF THE
RATES AND TERMS OF THIS NRA OR NRA AMENDMENT." The terms contained in
the writings shall be a valid offer for 30 days (or a date agreed to by
the parties) from the booking date, unless otherwise rescinded by the
Carrier prior to receiving Shipper's cargo. Carrier's or Carrier's
agent's receipt of cargo for this shipment constitutes final acceptance
by Shipper or Consignee of this offer, and the terms of the NRA shall
bind the parties. All applicable origin and destination local terminal
and/or port charges shall be for the account of the cargo.
d. The NRA may be amended after the time the initial shipment is received
by the NVOCC, but such changes may only apply prospectively to shipments
not yet received by the NVOCC.
e. All applicable origin and destination local terminal and/or port charges
shall be for the account of the cargo.
