RULE: 2.29 - PRORATING FCL RATES TO COVER MULTIPLE B/LS Eff: 20JUL2004

Effective 20JUL2004
Filed 20JUL2004
Filing Codes I

When multiple prepaid shipments, moving on separate B/Ls,
received from one Shipper or multiple collect shipments,
moving on separate B/Ls, destined to a single Consignee,
are transported from a single origin to a single
destination in a single ocean container, and an applicable
full containerload rate is published in this Tariff on the
cargo loaded therein from such origin to such destination,
the freight charges for each shipment in such a container
will be a prorated portion of the full containerload rate,
subject to the following provisions:
     
a. All freight charges for each shipment in the container
   must be paid by a single party (Shipper in the case of
   prepaid shipments or Consignee in the case of collect
   shipments).  Prepaid and collect shipments may NOT be
   mixed in a single container.
     
b. The applicable rate for each shipment in the container
   will be calculated as follows:
       
  1. Determine the total freight charges (basic freight
     plus all assessorial charges) applicable for the FCL
     container movement.
     
  2. Determine each shipment's prorated revenue ton portion
     of the total weight or measurement of the entire
     containerload (i.e. if the total containerload is 25
     cbm and one shipment is 5 cbm, that shipment's
     prorated portion is 20% [twenty percent] of the
     shipment), rounded to the nearest hundredth of a
     percent.  Unless the applicable FCL containerload rate
     is stated on a weight basis (subject to a minimum
     quantity), proration calculations shall be made on the
     basis of cubic measurement. Any containerload received
     by Carrier without a declaration of weight and
     measurement for each individual shipment will be
     weighed or measured unless a method of conversion is
     provided by Shipper.
     
  3. Multiply the applicable total freight charges
     determined in paragraph b.1. above by each shipment's
     prorated portion as determined in paragraph b.2.
     above.  Fractions of a cent will be disposed of as
     follows:  fractions of less than 1/2 cent will be
     dropped and fractions of 1/2 cent or more will be
     increased to the next whole cent.
     
  4. Add all the prorated portions together.  If the total
     exceeds (because of rounding) the total freight
     charges determined in paragraph b.1. above, subtract
     the overage amount from the freight charges applicable
     to the smallest shipment in the containerload.  If the
     total is less (because of rounding) than the total
     freight charges determined in paragraph b.1. above,
     add the deficit amount to the freight charges
     applicable to the largest shipment in the
     containerload.
     
  5. EXAMPLE:
       Applicable Lumpsum PC Rate Is = $ 4000.00
       Applicable BAF Charges Is     = $  400.00
       Total Freight Charges Are     = $ 4400.00
       Total Measurement Of Cargo In Container Is = 30 cbm
     
 TOTAL MEASUREMENT ] PRORATED MEASUREMENT [  TOTAL FREIGHT
 OF EACH SHIPMENT  ]   PORTION OF TOTAL   [ CHARGES OF EACH
   IN CONTAINER    ]    CONTAINERLOAD     [     SHIPMENT

  No. 3 =  9 cbm   ]      30 %            [     1320.00
