Except as otherwise provided on any Web Rate Page in this Tariff, rates and
charges named in this Tariff or on any Web Rate Page in 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 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.
d. Rates and/or additional charges stated on a per container basis ("PC")
apply per single container by capacity and type as defined below:

2. CALCULATION OF HI-CUBE CONTAINER RATES: When no
applicable rate is published to apply on a 40ft. or
45ft. 9ft6in high Hi-Cube Container (i.e. PC40B or
PC45B), but there is a rate published to apply on a
standard height 40 ft. container (i.e., PC40), the
rate for the Hi-Cube Container will be calculated as
follows:
TO CALCULATE RATE FOR A: MULTIPLY PC40 RATE BY:
40B Container 1.125 (112.5%)
45B Container 1.266 (126.6%)
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 containers.
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.
