GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
14. EVALUATION OF CREDIT (Con't)
(c) Stingray's credit appraisal procedures involve
the establishment of dollar credit limits on a
standardized, nondiscriminatory basis. To the
extent that a Shipper's accounts with Stingray
do not exceed such limit, and Shipper has met
all creditworthiness requirements as determined
in periodic credit reviews by Stingray, which
reviews may be conducted on at least an annual
basis, no new credit appraisals shall be
required when an existing Agreement is amended
or a request for a new Agreement is made,
provided that Shipper's payment history has been
satisfactory and there is no bona fide basis for
questioning Shipper's creditworthiness.
(d) At any time after the Shipper is determined to
be noncreditworthy by Stingray, the Shipper may
initiate a creditworthiness re-evaluation. As
part of the reevaluation request, the Shipper
should either update or confirm in writing the
prior information provided to Stingray related
to the Shipper's creditworthiness. Such update
should include any event(s) that the Shipper
believes could lead to a material change in the
Shipper's creditworthiness.
(e) After a Transportation Service Provider's (TSP)
receipt of Shipper's request for re-evaluation,
including all required information pursuant to
NAESB WGQ Standard 0.3.8 ("SR's Request"), within
five (5) Business Days, Stingray should provide a
written response to the Shipper's Request. Such
written response should include either a
determination of creditworthiness status, clearly
stating the reason(s) for Stingray's decision, or
an explanation supporting a future date by which
a re-evaluation determination will be made. In no
event should such re-evaluation determination
exceed twenty (20) Business Days from the date of
the receipt of the Shipper's Request unless
specified in Stingray's tariff or if the parties
mutually agree to some later date.
