Control No. 14-17566 Carrier may establish with immediate effect changes in charges and additional charges which are not under the control of the Carrier and which Carrier passes through to its customers without mark-up. Certain of Carrier's charges to Shippers are based on rates charged to Carrier by third parties, such as terminals, public authorities and vessel operating common carriers. From time to time, these third parties impose bunker and other fuel charges or other surcharges on Carrier in a manner that prohibits carrier from providing thirty days notice of the increase. When Carrier passes these increases through to Shippers without mark-up, they will be established in appropriate Negotiated Rate Arrangements with an effective date matching the effective date of the underlying service provider. Although Carrier will endeavor to advise Shippers of these pass through charges as quickly as possible after it receives notice, they may, in some cases take effect immediately upon the effective date of the underlying third party's publication.
