Except as otherwise provided in individual TLIs (Rate Items), a shipment,
which for any reason, is refused or rejected by the Consignee at
destination, or which cannot be delivered despite Carrier's diligent
efforts for reasons not ascribable to the Carrier within 5 (five) business
days of notification to Consignee that the shipment has arrived and is
ready for delivery, will be considered "refused" or "unclaimed" and will be
SUBJECT to the following provisions.
  
a. If, after the expiration of the Free Time specified above, delivery of
   shipment to Consignee is ultimately accomplished, all third party
   which have been incurred and/or advanced by the Carrier will be
   assessed and collected from the Consignee, regardless of whether the
   shipment was prepaid or collect, unless Shipper shall otherwise claim
   responsibility for such charges in writing.
  
b. In all cases of refused or unclaimed shipments, Carrier will immediately
   notify Shipper of such status by telephone, facsimile, e-mail or other
   electronic means and request instructions for the disposition of the
   shipment.
  
c. If Carrier does NOT receive instructions for the disposition of shipment
   from Shipper within the Free Time specified above, Carrier reserves the
   right to transfer the refused or unclaimed cargo to a public storage.
   All third party charges incurred and assessed as a result of such
   action, including but not limited to, storage, transfer, terminal,
   cartage or customs charges will be for the account of cargo.  Once
   placed in a public storage facility, Carrier's liability will terminate
   and a lien for all unpaid freight and additional charges shall be placed
   upon the cargo for Carrier's account.
  
d. Notice of arrival of shipment at B/L destination as described in this
   Rule shall be given to Consignee by telephone, facsimile or e-mail when
   possible or by deposit of letter or post card, properly addressed to
   Consignee, with the United States or Foreign Postal Service.
