ADVANCE CHARGES

Forwarder's, Shipper's and/or Consignee's charges on
Bills of Lading (not ocean freight charges) may be
accepted provided that they are indicated on all copies
of the Bill of Lading prior to being submitted
to the Line. Such charges shall be accepted without
Carrier's responsibility, up to a maximum of USD $1000.00
and are at the full risk of the Forwarder, Shipper
and/or Consignee at all times. Such charges must be shown
in U.S. Dollars.

On such charges, the Line will assess a Collection
Commission of Ten Percent (10%) of the charges collected,
subject to a minimum charge per Bill of Lading of
USD $25.00. If Carrier is required to make changes to
these charges, subsequent to preparation of the vessel's
manifest, an additional collection fee of USD $100.00
per change will be assessed.

In the event that advance charges are to be made to any
port in the scope of tariffs making reference hereto,
charges must be submitted within 48 hours of the
vessel's sailing from the port of loading. Any
requests to add advance charges made after this time
period will not be accepted.

Such ADVANCE CHARGES will be applicable to shipments
from all U.S. Atlantic and West Coast Ports to all
areas covered within the Scope of Tariff #156.
