Filing Codes I

U.S.A. Poultry, Import and Export Corp., a Licensed Non-Vessel-Operating
Common Carrier (NVOCC) may tender cargo to other NVOCCs for co-loading
at its option, risk and expense SBJ to the provisions named below.  For
the purposes of this Rule, "Co-Loading" is the combining of cargo, in
the import or export foreign commerce of the United States, by 2 (two)
or more NVOCCs for tendering to an Ocean Common Carrier under the name
of 1 (one) or more NVOCCs.
   
a. Under joint carrier-to-carrier co-loading agreements with other
   NVOCCs, Carrier may, at its option, tender all, or any portion, of a
   Shipper's cargo to such other NVOCC to provide all, or any portion,
   of the through transportation service to destination.  Additionally
   Carrier reserves the right to tender cargo to other NVOCCs under a
   Shipper-to-Carrier relationship to accomplish all, or any portion, of
   the through transportation.
   
b. It is understood that the tendering of cargo to, and when applicable
   the acceptance of a B/L issued by another NVOCC for co-loading, shall
   NOT increase, reduce, alter or otherwise remove Carrier's liability
   to the Shipper for the cargo as stated in Carrier's B/L issued at the
   time of shipment (See Rule 8), or when applicable as provided in Rule
   12 (Ad Valorem).
    
c. When Carrier tenders cargo to another NVOCC for co-loading, whether
   under a carrier-to-carrier agreement, or as a Shipper, the Carrier
   will place a notation reading substantially as specified below on the
   face of Carrier's B/L covering such co-loaded cargo.
   
    "U.S.A. Poultry, Import and Export Corp. has tendered the cargo
     moving under this B/L to (Name of Receiving NVOCC) for co-loading
     service."  (Receiving NVOCC may be identified only by its SCAC Code).
   
d. The exercising of its option to utilize co-loading service does NOT
   alter or relieve Carrier of any responsibility for the payment of all
   underlying Carrier or receiving NVOCC rates and charges assessed for
   the transportation and handling of the cargo from origin to
   destination.
