1. Rates published in this Tariff are stated in terms of U.S. Currency
   and apply per 1 Cubic Foot (M) or 1 Pound (W), as indicated,
   whichever basis yields the greater revenue, except as otherwise
   specified.  Where the word "Weight" or the letter "W" appears next
   to an article or commodity, weight rates are applicable without
   regard to measurement.  Where the word "Measurement" or the letter
   "M" appears next to an article or commodity, measurement rates are
   applicable without regard to weight. 
   
   All freight rates and other charges shall be based on the actual
   gross weight and/or overall measurement of each piece or package,
   except as otherwise provided. 
   
   Rates indicated by W/M or WM are optional weight or measurement rates
   and the rate yielding the greater revenue will be charged. 
   
2. Except as otherwise provided, all "Port" (i.e., Port-to-Port) rates
   published herein apply from/to places where the common carrier
   originates or terminates its actual ocean carriage of cargo.  Tolls, 
   Wharfage, Cost of Landing, and all other expenses beyond the port
   terminal area are for account of Owner, Shipper or Consignee of the
   cargo and all such expenses levied in the first instance against the
   Carrier will be billed in an equal amount to the Owner, Shipper, or
   Consignee of the Cargo. 
   
   The "Point" rates named in this Tariff are applicable from Inland
   Points which lie beyond port terminal areas.  Such rates will be
   shown as single-factor through rates or combination through rates
   constructed by the addition of applicable inland rate factors.  Such
   rates shall be inclusive of all charges pertinent to the
   transportation of cargo (including intermediate but not Origin or
   Destination Terminal Charges) but not including Customs clearance
   assessments or Forwarding Charges, except as provided. 
   
   Alternatively, at shipper's request, carrier will arrange for inland
   transportation as shipper's agent.  All associated costs will be for
   the account of the cargo.  Overland carriers will be utilized on an 
   availability of service basis and not restricted to any preferred
   Carriers, except as Ocean Carrier deems necessary to guarantee safe
   and efficient movement of said cargo.  (See item 16, re: Advanced
   Charges.) 
   
   Carrier shall not be obligated to transport the goods in any
   particular type of container or by any particular 
   
   Vessel, Train, Motor, Barge or Air Carrier, or in time for any
   particular market or otherwise than with reasonable dispatch.
   Selection of Water Carriers, Railways, Motor, Barge or Air Carrier
   used for all or any portion of the transportation of the goods shall
   be within the sole discretion of the Ocean Carrier. 
   
3. Packages containing articles of more than one description shall be
   rated on the basis of the rate provided for the highest rated
   articles contained therein.
   
4. Rates as published herein do not include Marine Insurance or
   Consular fees. 
   
5. Description of commodities shall be uniform on all copies of the
   Bill of Lading and MUST be in conformity with the validated United
   States Export Declaration covering the shipment.  Carrier must verify 
   the Bill of Lading description with the validated United States
   Export Declaration.  Shipper amendments in the description of the
   goods will only be accepted if validated by United States Customs. 
   
   Trade names are not acceptable commodity descriptions and shippers
   are required to declare their commodity by its generally accepted
   generic or common name.
   
6. Unless otherwise specified, when the rates in this Tariff are based
   on the value of the commodity, such commodity value will be the
   F.O.B. or F.A.S. value at the port of loading as indicated on the
   Commercial Invoice, the Custom Entry, the Import/Export Declaration
   or the Shipper's Certificate of Origin. 
   
   The F.O.B. value and the F.A.S. value include all expenses up to
   delivery at the Loading Port. 
   
7. The rates shown in this Tariff except where predicated on
   specifically lower values or on an ad valorem basis, are subject to
   Bill of Lading limit of value. 
   
8. Except as otherwise provided, rates published in this Tariff apply
   only to the specific commodity named and cannot be applied to
   analogous articles.  Unless a commodity is specifically provided for,
   the applicable Cargo, N.O.S. rate shall be applied. 
   
9. Wherever rates are provided for articles named herein, the same
   rate will also be applicable on parts of such articles where so
   described in the ocean bill of lading, except where specific rates
   are provided for such parts. 
   
10. FORCE MAJEURE CLAUSE: "Without prejudice to any rights or
   privileges of the Carrier's under covering Bills of Lading, dock
   receipts, or booking contracts or under applicable provisions of law,
   in the event of war, hostilities, warlike operations, embargoes,
   blockades, port congestion, strikes or labor disturbances,
   regulations of any governmental authority pertaining thereto or any
   other official interferences with commercial intercourse arising from
   the above conditions and affecting the Carrier's operations, the
   Carrier reserves the right to cancel any outstanding booking or
   contract in conformity with Federal Maritime Commission Regulations."
   
11. When a commodity can properly be carried under more than one Tariff
   item, but which by its nature is clearly influenced by its end use,
   the freight shall be assessed based on the rate of the end use
   commodity, eg: Rubber Gloves, Cotton Gloves, etc. would all be rated
   under "Gloves, N.O.S." rather than Rubber Goods, Textiles, etc. 
   
   The above does not apply in cases where there is a specific Tariff
   rate for the commodity in question, eg: If the tariff contains a rate
   for Rubber Gloves, then this rate will apply - and NOT the Gloves,
   N.O.S. rate.
   
12. When two or more rates may be applicable to a given shipment and
   one rate is more specific than the others, the most specific rate
   shall apply.
   
   One rate is more specific than another when it describes the
   commodity being shipped more explicitly, i.e.:  Canned Pineapple is
   more specific than Canned Fruit or Canned Goods, N.O.S. 
   
   A rate from/to a specific destination is more specific than a rate
   to/from a geographic range or zone, 
   
   Examples: 
   
    A rate from New York, NY is more specific than a rate From
     Atlantic and Gulf Base Ports (AGBP). 
   
    A rate to Yokohama, Japan is more specific than a rate to Japan
     Base Ports (JBP). 
   
13. Any Tollage, Wharfage, Handling and/or other charges assessed against
   the cargo at Ports of Loading/Discharge will be for the account of
   the cargo.  Any Tollage, Wharfage, Handling and/or Charges at Port 
   of Loading in connection with storage, handling and receipt of cargo
   before loading on the vessel shall be for the account of the cargo. 
   
   Any Additional Charges which may be imposed upon the cargo by
   Governmental Authorities will be for the account of the cargo.
