E. American International Cargo Service Inc., a non-vessel-operating
   common carrier (NVOCC), may tender cargo to other NVOCCs for co-loading
   at its option, risk and expense, subject to the provisions named below.
   For the purposes of this Rule, "Co-Loading" is the combining of cargo,
   in the import or export foreign commerce of the United States, by
   2 (two) or more NVOCCs for tendering to an Ocean Common Carrier
   (VOCC) under the name of 1 (one) or more NVOCCs (46 CFR 514.2).
    
 1. Under joint carrier-to-carrier co-loading agreements with other
    NVOCCs, Carrier may, at its option, tender all, or any portion,
    of a Shipper's cargo to such other NVOCC to provide all, or any
    portion, of the thru transportation to destination.  Additionally,
    Carrier reserves the right to tender cargo to other NVOCCs under
    a Shipper-to-Carrier relationship to accomplish all, or any portion,
    of the thru transportation.
    
 2. It is understood that the tendering of cargo to, and when applicable
    the acceptance of a B/L issued by, another NVOCC for co-loading shall
    NOT increase, reduce, alter or otherwise remove Carrier's liability
    to the Shipper for the cargo as stated in Carrier's B/L issued at
    the time of shipment (See Rule 8), or as provided in Rule 12 (Ad
    Valorem Rates).
    
 3. When Carrier tenders cargo to another NVOCC for co-loading, whether
    under a Carrier-to-Carrier agreement, or as a Shipper, the Carrier
    will place a notation reading substantially as specified below on the
    face of the B/L covering such co-loaded cargo.
    
    "American International Cargo Service Inc. has tendered the cargo
    moving under this Bill of Lading to (Name of receiving NVOCC) for
    co-loading service."
    
 4. The exercising of its option to utilize co-loading service does NOT
    alter or relieve Carrier of any responsibility for the payment of
    all underlying Carrier or receiveing NVOCC rates and charges assessed
    for the transportation and handling of the cargo from origin to
    destination.
