Except as otherwise provided in individual Tariff Rules,
Algorithms or TLIs, rates and charges named in this Tariff
are stated in U.S. Currency and apply per weight unit, per
measurement unit, per container 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 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 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.  When calculating freight
     and additional charges of Barrels, Casks, Kegs, Drums
     or other cylindrical shipping units, measurements
     shall be taken on the square of the bilge.
     
 iv. 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.
     
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.

   container basis ("PC") apply per single container by
