The completion of inspection shall not discharge you from liability in damages or warranty of product. If the shipper chooses to
purchase additional Declared Value or Asset Protection to cover the contents of their cartons, the premium is the
responsibility of the shipper. Any charges billed to The Johnson Smith Company will be billed back to you.
