   4. Intermodal Service to/from inland points: Carrier may
      move cargo via a combination of services, i.e.
      door/container yard service would provide pickup at
      shipper's premises at origin and delivery of cargo to
      carrier's inland container yard at destination.
      Where a commodity item does not specify a service,
      the rate provided applies to all combinations of
      services described above.
  
C. Rates Based on Cargo Value:  (See Rule 12 for Ad
   Valorem Provisions)
  
   Where in this tariff rates are graduated on the value
   of the commodity concerned, the following will apply:
  
   1. Value for the purpose of this rule will be the F.A.S.
      value; i.e., incorporating all cost and expenses of
      and for the cargo up to delivery alongside the vessel
      at the loading port.
  
   2. The above described value MUST be annotated on the
      ocean bill of lading and annotated "for rating
      purposes only, not for establishing a higher
      liability."
  
   3. On carrier's request; a Shipper's Commercial
      Invoice must be produced at the loading port
      substaintiating the value declared on the bill of
      lading.
  
   4. Failure to produce a Shipper's Commercial Invoice
      indicating the value will result in the cargo
      being rated at the highest value level subject to
      adjustment at the port of destination on
      production of the Shipper's Commercial Invoice.
  
D. Choice of Rates:
  
   1. This tariff offers shippers a choice of freight rates
      dependent upon whether the shipment is made subject
      to bill of lading limit of value or a higher limit of
      value.
  
   2. If the shipper elects to ship at a value in excess of
      the bill of lading limit of value, he shall declare
      the value in writing before delivery.  The shipment
      is then subject to the provisions of Rule 12.
  
   3. Should the shipper fail to declare valuation in
      excess of the bill of lading limit of value, in
      writing before delivery, such non-declaration
      shall constitute an election by the shipper to
      ship on the basis of the bill of lading limit of
      value and any liability of the carrier shall be
      computed on the basis of said limit of value in
      the manner provided in the bill of lading.
    
E. 1. On shipments originating at or destined to points
      beyond the ports named in Rule 1 of this tariff, the
      the carrier, at his option, may advance the cost of
      prior or subsequent carriage.  These costs will be
      charged to the shipper or consignee plus a 3%
      administrative fee.  In this instance, the carrier
      acts as agent for the shipper and carrier assumes
      liability only for the movement between the ports
      named on his bill of lading. To seek redress for loss
      or damage when occuring beyond the bill of lading
      ports, shipper must file directly with the inland
      carrier.
  
   2. Carrier reserves the right to refuse to advance
      all or any of the charges referred to in this
      Rule, if in its judgement the shipment involved
      would not, at forced sale, realize the total
      amount of the advances and other charges on the
      Bill of Lading.
  
   3. Communication Costs, such as telex and telephone,
      will be charged at cost.
