Unless the Shipper shall cause the value of the Goods to be declared before shipment and elect to pay freight at the ad valorem rate, Shipper elects to ship under the regular (lower) rate and agrees that for the purpose of computing any liability of the Carrier for loss or damage, the value of the Goods shall be their sound market value at destination which shall be presumed to be invoiced cost plus freight and insurance (or, where there is no invoice, the value of the Goods at the time and place of shipment plus freight and insurance) not in any event exceeding $500. per package lawful money of the United States, or in case of Goods not shipped in packages. $500 per customary freight unit provided, however, that the Carrier’s liability for inquiry to or death of live animals, birds, reptiles and fish shall not exceed any special limitations set forth in the Carrier’s tariff, unless in all cases the above provisions for placing a higher valuation thereon have been compiled with.
