          __%. Using the average of the price of West Texas Crude Intermediate
          for the previous quarter, the surcharge will be adjusted +/- depending

          of the Agreement, Shipper and Carrier will consider whether the size
          and weight of vehicles transported by Carrier for Shipper under the
          Agreement has resulted in a reduction in the number of units which
          Carrier transports per loaded vehicle for Shipper, and if such change
          causes a material adverse effect upon Carrier, then the parties shall
          negotiate in good faith to modify the rates to account for the
          reduction in units transported per loaded vehicle.

          the Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall govern.

     6.   COUNTERPARTS. This Amendment may be executed by the parties in
          separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall
          be deemed an original, but all such counterparts will together
