Filing Codes I

Walsh Supply Chain Management Services LLC, a 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 (VOCC) under the name of 1
(one) or more NVOCCs.
    
1. 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 thru
   transportation 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 thru transportation.
    
2. 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 as provided in Rule 12 (Ad Valorem Rates).
    
3. 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
   the B/L covering such co-loaded cargo.
    
    "Walsh Supply Chain Management Services LLC has tendered the cargo
     moving under this Bill of Lading to (Name of receiving NVOCC) for
     co-loading service."  Receiving NCOCC may be identified ONLY by SCAC
     Code.
    
4. 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 receiveing NVOCC rates and charges assessed for
   the transportation and handling of the cargo from origin to destination.
