Except as otherwise provided in individual Tariff Rules, NRAs, or on any
Web Rate Page in a Tariff governed by this Tariff, rates and charges named
in this Tariff, in any NRA, or on any Web Rate Page in a Tariff governed by
this Tariff are stated in U.S. Currency and apply per weight unit, per
measurement unit, per container, per each unit or lumpsum per shipment as
specified. Calculation of freight and additional charges will be based
upon the applicable rate, times the number of units tendered for
transportation, subject to the provisions named below.
a. Rates and/or additional charges stated on a weight unit basis ("W" or
"W-ton") apply per ton of 1000 kilos.
i. Freight and additional charges on shipments subject to rates or
charges stated on a weight unit basis will be computed on the gross
weight of the cargo PLUS the weight of all packing materials, pallets
or shipping containers (exclusive of the weight of the ocean
container) established at the time cargo is tendered for
transportation at origin.
ii. Carrier reserves the right to weigh or reweigh, on certified scales,
any cargo tendered for shipment. Any weight so ascertained by the
Carrier shall be deemed paramount and shall be used to compute freight
and additional charges regardless of any other weight, certified or
otherwise, declared or provided by the Shipper or his agent. Shipper
may however at his own expense, seek independent certification of the
accuracy of any scales utilized by the Carrier.
b. Rates and/or additional charges stated on a measurement unit basis ("M"
or "M-ton") apply per 1 cubic meter.
i. Freight and additional charges on shipments subject to rates or
charges stated on a measurement unit basis will be computed on the
overall measurement of each piece, package or unit in the shipment.
The cubical content of each piece, package or other unit shall be the
extreme dimensions of the length, width and height of such piece,
package or unit.
ii. Before any other calculations are made all fractional centimeter or
inch dimensions will be disposed of as follows:
1. All fractions of less than one-half centimeter/inch shall be dropped.
2. All fractions of one-half centimeter/inch or more shall be rounded up
to the next full centimeter/inch.
iii. When calculating the cube of any piece, package or unit in a shipment,
fractional cubic meters are to be rounded off to the second decimal
as follows: fractions of less than .005 cubic meters are to be
dropped, fractions of .005 cubic meters or greater are to be increased
to the next higher second decimal. In the case of multiple pieces,
packages or units of like dimensions, the cube on one package,
calculated to the sixth decimal, is to be multiplied by the total
number of like packages and the total cube so determined is then to
be rounded off to the second decimal as specified above.
iv. When calculating freight and additional charges of an irregular or
unusually shaped piece, package or unit, the 3 (three) greatest
dimensions shall be used as the rating measurements.
v. When calculating freight and additional charges of Barrels, Casks,
Kegs and Drums, measurements shall be taken on the square of the
bilge.
vi. When calculating freight and additional charges of rolls and
cylindrical pieces, packages or units, the measurements are to taken
on the square of the mean diameter (i.e. averaging the diameter at
the greatest and least girth).
vii. Whenever an individual piece, package or other shipping unit is
tendered for transportation and it is requested by Shipper, or is
necessary because of the nature of the cargo or its packaging, that no
cargo be stowed on top of same, Carrier will use the maximum inside
height dimension of the transporting container as the height of the
cargo when calculating the freight or assessorial charges.
viii. Where rates named in this Tariff are stated on a weight basis and
apply ONLY when the measurement of the cargo is not to exceed a
stated cubic measurement unit per a stated weight unit, the total
measurement of the commodity, subject to such limitation, moving on a
single B/L will be the used to determine the applicable rate when
calculating freight charges instead of utilizing the
measurement/weight ratio of each individual piece, package or unit in
the shipment.
c. Rates and/or additional charges stated on an alternating weight unit or
measurement unit apply per the weight or measurement unit, defined in
Rule 2.2 paragraphs a. or b above, whichever produces the greatest
revenue to the Carrier.
d. Rates and/or additional charges stated on a per
container basis ("PC") apply per single container by
capacity and type as defined below:

e. Rates and/or additional charges stated on a lumpsum basis apply per a
single complete unit or shipment not exceeding a specified maximum
weight or measurement unit or a maximum number of packages, pallets,
containers or other measureable unit.
f. CORRECTIONS IN WEIGHT AND/OR MEASUREMENTS: All freight and assessorial
charges billed on the basis of weight and/or measurement are in all
cases SUBJECT to revision and correction if the weights and/or
measurements are found to be incorrectly stated or declared regardless
of the party responsible for the original error.
