3) THE AIR WAYBILL:
Our air waybill is NON-NEGOTIABLE, and you acknowledge that the air waybill has been prepared by you or by us on your behalf and as you directed. By giving us your shipment, you warrant that you are the owner or the authorized agent of the owner of the goods to be transported and that you hereby accept our terms and conditions for yourself and as agent for and on behalf of any other person having any interest in the shipment.

4) YOUR OBLIGATIONS AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:
You warrant that each item in the shipment is properly described on this air waybill, including any insured value, and is acceptable for transport by us, and that the shipment is properly marked, addressed and packed by you to ensure safe transportation with ordinary care in handling. You hereby acknowledge that we may abandon and/or release, without incurring any liability whatsoever to you, any item consigned by you to us which we have declared to be unacceptable or which you have undervalued for customs’ purposes or mis-described on this air waybill, whether intentionally or otherwise. You agree to protect, defend, indemnify and hold us harmless from all claims, damages, fines and expenses arising from our abandonment or release of such item(s).

You are responsible for all charges, including transportation charges, duties, customs assessments, governmental penalties and fines, taxes and our attorney fees and legal costs related to this shipment.

5) RIGHT OF INSPECTION OF SHIPMENT:
We have the right, but not the obligation, to inspect any shipment, including, without limitation, opening the shipment.

6) LIEN ON SHIPMENT:
We have a lien on any shipment in our possession for all money due and payable to us, including all lien and collection related costs, including, but not limited to, all freight charges, customs duties, advances or other charges of any kind arising out of the transportation. In the event of nonpayment, interest will be accrued at the legal rate of interest per month from the payment due date. OUR CHARGES ARE NOT SUBJECT TO SETOFF, COUNTERCLAIM OR REDUCTION BASED ON ANY CLAIM YOU MAY FEEL THAT YOU HAVE AGAINST US.

7) LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY:
You agree that the declared value listed by you or by us at your direction on this air waybill is the true value of your shipment. We recommend a listing be provided with each shipment by numbering each piece, then describing the contents with each piece and assigning a value to each of the contents. NOTWITHSTANDING THE AMOUNT LISTED AS THE VALUE, WE LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES PAYABLE BY US UNDER THIS AIR WAYBILL. In consideration of the rates offered you, you agree that we will only be liable for loss or damage resulting from our negligence or fault; our liability is limited to the lesser of: (i) the amount of damages sustained: (ii) U.S. $0.50 per pound per piece (where no value is declared) multiplied by the number of pounds that are actually lost or damaged (but not less than U.S. $50.00 per shipment); or (iii) the declared value in case of loss or damage of the entire shipment (but not less than U.S. $50.00 per shipment). DECLARED VALUE COVERAGE IS FOR DAMAGES OR LOSS OF THE “ACTUAL LOSS” AND IS NOT “REPLACEMENT COST” TYPE INSURANCE. In the event loss or damage occurs to part of the shipment and no itemized listing has been provided prior to shipment, the average declared value shall be determined by dividing the total value of the shipment by the number of pieces in the shipment to derive a par value. For each piece maximum declared value for carriage will be no more than U.S. $5,000.

8) HIGH VALUE SHIPMENTS GREATER THAN U.S. $30,000:
We will make reasonable efforts to obtain marine, theft and/or other insurance upon the goods only after specific written instructions have been received from you by us in sufficient time prior to the shipment from the point of origin, which instructions must state specifically the kind and amount of insurance to the placed. WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT INSURANCE CAN OR WILL BE PLACED. Unless you have your own open marine policy and instruct us to arrange for insurance under such policy, insurance may be obtained with one or more insurance companies, or other underwriters of our choice. Any such insurance shall be governed by the certificate or policy issued and will only be effective when accepted by such insurance companies or other underwriters. Should an insurer dispute its liability for any reason, the insured shall have recourse against the insurer only and we shall not be liable in relation thereto, notwithstanding that the premium upon the policy may not be at the same rates as that charged or paid to us by you, or that the shipment was insured under a policy in our name. Insurance premiums and our charges for arranging the same shall be at your expense. If for any reason the goods are held in warehouse, or elsewhere, the same will not be covered under any insurance, unless we receive written instructions from you. Unless specifically agreed in writing, we assume no responsibility to obtain insurance on any export or import shipment which we do not handle.

9) LIABILITIES NOT ASSUMED:
WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE for your acts or omissions, including, but not limited to, improper or insufficient packing, securing, marking or addressing; violation of any terms of this agreement; loss or damage to materials not acceptable for transport or prohibited items; loss, damage or delay caused by events we cannot control, including, but not limited to, electrical or magnetic injury, erasure, acts of God, perils of the air, weather conditions, mechanical delay, acts of public enemies, war, strikes, civil commotion or acts of public authorities with actual or apparent authority.

WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE for delays in pick-up, transportation or delivery of any shipment, regardless of the cause of such delay.

WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE in any event for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive, consequential or statutory damages including, but not limited to loss of profits, income, utility, interest or loss of market, whether or not we had knowledge that such damage might be incurred
