                      UNIFORM BULK MOTOR CARRIER CONTRACT

  This is a Contract to provide for interstate and intrastate, where applicable,
  motor carrier transportation of various cargoes between or among various
  geographic points, dated the 1st day of October, 1991, by and between Chemical
  Leaman Tank Lines, Inc. (hereinafter "Carrier") and The Dow Chemical Company
  (hereinafter "Dow"). Service provided under this Contract is authorized under
  I.C.C. Permit MC-110525, Sub #1328, dated August 23,1983, and such State
  Agencies as are required.


  Dow is a diversified manufacturer of basic chemicals, plastics, specialty
  products and services and has a need for transportation service in the
  furtherance of its business. Carrier is a motor carrier desirous of providing
  transportation service to Dow.


  Therefore, in consideration of the premises, covenants and agreements
  contained herein, the parties agree as follows:


o 1.  Pursuant to this non-exclusive transportation Contract, Dow agrees to
      tender a series of shipments of its general commodities to Carrier for
      transportation and delivery as directed by Dow's Shipping Order/Bill of
      Lading which will accompany each tender. Carrier agrees to provide
      transportation for 100% of tenders. Carrier may sub-contract with other
      mutually agreed upon carriers. For any sub-contracted tenders, freight
      charges will be billed at the rates in Appendix II of this Agreement.

  2.  Carrier shall receive from Dow such quantities of goods as may be tendered
      for transportation from time to time, and Carrier shall make all
      reasonable effort to have the required equipment available, with trailer
      exteriors and interiors clean and presentable as befits a Dow quality
      load. Carrier will provide, as requested, a general list of all Carrier
      controlled or commercial cleaning locations where trailers have been
      cleaned after transporting Dow produced or purchased products.

  3.  Carrier shall transport and carry the goods without delay caused by
      anything in Carrier's control. Any and all occurrences which would be
      probable or certain cause for delay of delivery shall be immediately
      communicated to Dow by Carrier. In addition, Carrier will furnish when
      their capabilities are developed, via electronic data interchange,
      periodic transmissions of data elements on each Dow shipment and receipt
      in format specified by the United States Electronic Data Interchange
      Standards published by the Transportation Data Coordinating Committee, as
      well as similar data elements for automated payment of freight bills.

                                                   ----------------------------
                                                   Dow:
                                                   ----------------------------

                                                   ----------------------------



  4.  Dow agrees to pay Carrier, as compensation for such transportation, the
      rates and charges shown in Appendices I and II to this Contract. All
      changes must be approved in writing by both parties. All rates will apply
      to both prepaid and collect shipments. In the event that the consignee
      also has a contract rate in effect with the Carrier and the shipment is
      tendered on a "freight collect" basis, the consignee's contract rate will
      apply in lieu of rates included in this Contract. If, on collect
      shipments, consignee fails to pay Carrier's freight bills after Carrier
      has made a conscientious effort to collect, Dow will pay such freight
      bills, provided Carrier furnishes proof of efforts to collect from
      consignee. 

  5.  Carrier personnel (including driving personnel, whether employees of
      Carrier or of Carrier's agents known as "fleet operators" or "leased
      operators") will comply with all plant rules and regulations while on
      Dow's or consignee's plant premises. Carrier shall inform all of its
      employees and personnel who may come onto such premises of this
      requirement. Any Carrier employee or person who does not comply with all
      plant rules and regulations may be summarily rejected and directed to
      immediately leave the premises at the exclusive risk and expense of the
      Carrier. Carrier agrees to utilize adequate motor truck equipment and
      qualified personnel for performance of its obligations under this
      Contract, and to operate its business at all times in compliance with all
      applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules, and regulations.
      Worker's Compensation Insurance for Carrier's drivers or operators, if
      required, shall be obtained and maintained at the exclusive cost and risk
      of Carrier.

  6.  Carrier shall comply with the financial responsibility requirements of the
      appropriate federal and state regulatory agency through which the Carrier
      operates. 

      The Carrier shall maintain public liability insurance against injury or
      death in amounts not less than those prescribed by the U.S. Department of
      Transportation and the Interstate Commerce Commission. In addition, the
      Carrier shall carry cargo insurance of, at least, $100,000 per Dow
      shipment. The Carrier shall have his insurance carrier furnish directly to
      Dow or its contractor certificates that such coverage is in effect, and
      will instruct carrier to directly notify Dow or its contractor if coverage
      is cancelled or changed.

  7.  Carrier shall indemnify, defend, and hold Dow, its employees and agents
      harmless from claims, demands, and causes of action asserted against Dow,
      its employees or agents, by any other person (including without limitation
      Carrier's and Dow's employees) for personal injury or death or for loss of
      or damage to property and resulting from the willful or negligent acts or





                                                   Page: 3 Rev. 1 Date: 4/1/95

                                                   Dow:
                                                   ----------------------------

                                                   ----------------------------

      omissions of Carrier. Dow shall indemnify, defend, and hold Carrier, its
      employees, agents, and subcontractors harmless from claims, demands, and
      causes of action asserted against Carrier, its employees, agents, or
      subcontractors by any other person (including without limitation Dow's and
      Carrier's employees) for personal injury or death or for loss of or damage
      to property and resulting from the willful or negligent acts or omissions
      of Dow. Where personal injury, death, or loss of or damage to property is
      the result of the joint negligence or misconduct of Dow and Carrier, the
      parties expressly agree to indemnify each other in proportion to its share
      of such joint negligence or misconduct.


  8.  Carrier assumes complete responsibility and liability regardless of the
      fault of any person for all loss of, or damage to, goods transported
      hereunder, except where caused in whole or in part by Dow's negligence or
      acts of God in which Carrier had no contributory negligence. In those
      cases Dow will assume responsibility and liability for only that portion
      of the loss or damage caused by Dow's negligence and Carrier shall be
      liable for the remainder. Carrier's responsibility for damage or loss to
      goods transported shall commence from the time of acceptance at the
      shipping point until delivery at the proper destination in accordance with
      Dow's written instructions. 

      In the event of loss or damage during transit, except as limited in this
      paragraph above, Carrier shall pay Dow the full value of the lost or
      damaged goods plus any and all additional transportation costs. Value of
      the lost or damaged goods shall be determined by type of sale in the
      following manner: 

      Trade Sale: Dow will provide Carrier with invoice documentation. 

      Non-Trade Sale: Value will be determined as reported weekly in the
      Chemical Marketing Reporter or Dow's Price Book if the product(s) is not
      covered specifically in the Chemical Marketing Reporter. 

      When used in this Contract, "shipping point" means the place where the
      goods or cargo are tendered by Dow to the custody of Carrier or Carrier's
      agent for transportation.

  9.  Any assignment of any benefit or obligation of this Contract, in whole or
      in part, by either party, without the prior express written consent of the
      other party, shall be void and of no effect. 

  10. This Contract shall become effective upon the date of the permit (if one
      is issued) by the appropriate federal or state agency, or the last date in
      the

Rates as published in the Dow/Chemical Leaman contract are subject to the
following rules and provisions:

1. Dow Chemical agrees to a capital recovery provision effective October 14,
1996 through December 31, 2000. Under this provision, Chemical Leaman Tank
Lines, Inc. shall be entitled to recover a portion of its capital outlay under
the conditions outlined in item 2, below. Chemical Leaman's asset valuation
(capital outlay) is Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000) for the construction
and purchase of new MC-307 stainless steel trailers to be provided for food
grade and solvents service. The amount of capital recovery to which Chemical
Leaman shall be entitled shall be Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000) less
Two Percent (2.0%) for each month (or fraction thereof) of the contract term
that has expired from the date Dow Chemical has been notified, in writing, that
Chemical Leaman wishes to invoke this capital recovery provision. Should
Chemical Leaman invoke this capital recovery provision under the specified
conditions in item 2 below, Chemical Leaman shall retain full ownership of all
applicable assets covered in this provision. Should Chemical Leaman decide to
terminate the contract, the capital recovery provision shall not be invoked

2. Chemical Leaman reserves the right to invoke item 1 provisions except under
the following conditions: service performance as outlined in item 5; competitive
pricing as outlined in item 6; and under certain business conditions whereby Dow
Chemical documents business losses due to customer or product transitions.

3. Should Chemical Leaman be required to place additional new trailers into
service to meet Dow Chemical's shipment requirements, Chemical Leaman shall be
entitled to capital recovery. The asset valuation for the additional new
trailers (capital outlay) shall be the cost for the construction and purchase of
the new trailers. The amount of capital recovery to which Chemical Leaman shall
be entitled shall be the result of multiplying the capital outlay amount by the
result of dividing the unexpired number of months (or fractions thereof)
remaining through December 31, 2000 by the total number of months (or fractions
thereof) for the period between the date of the additional capital outlay and
December 31, 2000.

4. Dow Chemical commits One Hundred Percent (100%) of the Dow controlled and
routed outbound freight, stated to be approximately $2,500,000 annual, to be
routed via Chemical Leaman Tank Lines or their broker subsidiary, Capacity
Management Systems. Should Dow Chemical change the legal terms of sale for
transactions originating at Bayonne which results in a decline of business
routed via Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Chemical Leaman shall reserve the right
to invoke item 1.

                                    -------

5. Chemical Leaman will provide error free service levels at a minimum of Ninety
Five Percent (95%) total carrier error free. Should the error free performance
level fall below Ninety Five Percent (95%) for any consecutive 6-month calendar
period, Dow Chemical reserves the right to waive the capital recovery provision
as stated in item 1 of the Bayonne Rules Tariff. Total carrier error free
performance shall be defined as stated in the Uniform Bulk Motor Carrier
Contract, effective April 1, 1995 plus appendices I through III effective May 1,
1995. If Chemical Leaman retains the business at less than 95% error free
performance, and subsequently the error free performance improves to meet or
exceed the 95% level for a consecutive 6-month calendar period, the capital
recovery provision in item 1 shall be reinstated.

6. Dow Chemical reserves the right to receive and review competitive pricing bid
proposals for single source bulk carrier operations at their Bayonne, NJ
terminal operation. Dow Chemical agrees to consider no fewer than Three (3)
non-Chemical Leaman carrier pricing bids simultaneously, which each reduce
existing Chemical Leaman contract pricing by Five Percent (5%) or greater.

7. Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Inc. reserves the right of first refusal to
compare existing contract pricing to the Three (3) competitive bids each
generating a reduction of Five Percent (5%) or greater. Dow Chemical agrees to
provide competitive operating parameters in addition to proposed competitive
bids.

8. Chemical Leaman reserves the right to renegotiate current transportation
price levels should any changes to the operating parameters, as outlined in
Section I, significantly alter costs such as changes in equipment or driver
levels, trailer types, on-site personnel staffing, loading hours, unloading
hours, equipment accessorial requirements, tank cleaning requirements or Dow
terminal site location. Chemical Leaman shall provide written documentation
supporting increased operating costs due to changes in the operating parameters
as outlined above and in Section I.

9. Chemical Leaman reserves the right to increase transportation price levels up
to Five Percent (5%) under conditions outlined in item 8. Should Chemical Leaman
require an increase greater than 5%, Dow Chemical reserves the right to re-bid
the Bayonne, NJ business. Should Dow Chemical receive Three (3) or more
competitive bids at least five percent (5%) below Chemical Leaman proposed
pricing, Chemical Leaman agrees to revoke the take or pay provisions as outlined
in item 1. Should Dow Chemical not receive Three (3) or more competitive bids at
least Five Percent (5%) below Chemical Leaman proposed pricing, Chemical Leaman
shall retain the business at Bayonne, NJ.

                                   APPENDIX I

                                    IN BOUND

ADDITIONAL CONTRACT PROVISIONS

1.   COMMON CARRIER SERVICE NOT EXCLUDED

     The normal operations of Carrier as a motor Common Carrier shall not be
     affected by this Contract, nor shall Carrier be precluded from performing
     transportation services for Dow as a Common Carrier in connection with
     transportation services outside the scope of this Contract.

2.   COMPUTATION OF MILEAGE

     Distances between all points shall be based upon Rand McNally MILEMAKER
     System as determined from the Household Goods Carriers' Bureau Mileage
     Guide No. 14 or reissues thereof.

3.   CONDITION OF TANKS TENDERED FOR LOADING

     Carrier will supply "clean, dry, and free of contaminating odor" tank
     equipment of the type needed for the product involved. Pumps and hoses must
     be free of contaminants, and hose ends (when not in use) must be protected
     from contamination.

4.   DETENTION

     Except as otherwise more specifically provided for in Appendix II of this
     Contract, three (3) hours for loading without charge at any Dow or Dow
     designated location and three (3) hours for unloading without charge at any
     consignee's location will be allowed.

     In excess of the time given above a rate of $45 per hour or fraction
     thereof shall apply.

5.   CANCELED VEHICLES

     Except as otherwise provided (see Exception), when a tractor-trailer unit
     is ordered by Dow and such order is subsequently canceled or postponed by
     Dow after the vehicle has been dispatched from the Carrier's terminal, the
     charges in the S.A.C. will apply. In addition, the terms of Provision No. 4
     will apply, except that no time without charge shall be allowed.




                                                       Page: AI-2 Date: 06/17/96
                                                       Dow:
                                                       CLEA:


Exception: When the vehicle ordered is subsequently canceled for the shipment of
           the commodity for which it was specifically ordered, but such vehicle
           is used in the shipment of the same commodity to a different
           destination, or is used in a shipment of a different commodity to the
           same destination or a different destination, the terms of this
           Provision will not apply if the vehicle, as presented, is acceptable
           for loading without cleaning, and if the vehicle is of an acceptable
           capacity to Dow. Furthermore, if cancellation is communicated to
           Carrier more than four hours prior to scheduled departure, this
           Provision does not apply.

6.   DIVERSION OR RECONSIGNMENT

     Shipments moving on rates named in this Contract may be diverted or
     reconsigned in transit or at billed destination, subject to the following
     conditions:

     (a)  The term "Diversion or Reconsignment" means a change in the name of
          consignee and/or destination of the entire shipment, or any other
          instructions given to the Carrier requiring an addition to, or change
          in, billing necessary to effect delivery or involving an additional
          movement of equipment.

     (b)  On shipments diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading within
          the corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was
          originally consigned, the applicable rate from point of origin to
          destination will apply, in addition to the charge provided in the
          S.A.C.

     (c)  On a shipment diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading not
          within the corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment
          was originally consigned, the applicable rates (see Exception) shall
          be determined from mileage tables herein based on the mileage from
          point of origin to final destination over the route of actual movement
          as per Dows' instruction computed in accordance with Provision No. 2,
          and will apply in addition to the charges provided in the S.A.C.

          Exception: When point of diversion or reconsignment is on the most
          direct highway route and is intermediate to the final destination, the
          rate to the final destination will apply.

     (d)  On such movements, freight charges will be computed on the actual
          loaded movement miles.

                                                       Dow:
                                                       CLEA:


     (e)  The charge, (see S.A.C.) for each diversion or reconsignment, is in
          addition to all other applicable charges. This charge will be billed
          to company requesting diversion or reconsignment.

     (f)  Time consumed in waiting for orders under this provision will be
          considered part of unloading time, and detention charges will be
          assessed as provided in Provision No. 4 above, if time without charge
          has elapsed.

     (g)  A request for diversion or reconsignment must be made or confirmed in
          writing by the shipper. (Preferably with an amended bill of lading or
          shipping notice being presented to the Carrier.)

7.   HOSE

     When hose is required or requested to effect either pickup or delivery, or
     both, of a single shipment, then either a two, three, or four inch inside
     diameter hose length(s) will be provided. All hoses will be provided
     without charge.

8.   REJECTED SHIPMENTS

     If, for any reason not ascribable to the Carrier or its personnel, a
     shipment is rejected by the consignee at destination, notification to Dow
     shall be given in writing, telephone, or telegraph, requesting disposition.

     The charges to be applied on such rejected, returned shipments shall be in
     accordance with the S.A.C. as applied to the outbound shipment rates as
     published from the original point of origin to the original point of
     destination on the date of the returned shipment and shall be based on the
     actual weight of the product returned. Time consumed waiting for orders
     under this provision will be considered as part of unloading time, and
     detention charges will be assessed in accordance with Provision No. 4.

9.   SPOTTING NON-POOLED SEMI-TRAILERS FOR LINE HAUL MOVEMENTS OR STORAGE

     (a)  Except as otherwise provided, when, for Dow's convenience, Carrier is
          requested or required to place and leave a single semi-tank trailer
          on the premises of Dow, or any other practical site they may designate
          for the purpose of loading or unloading for a line haul movement a
          charge in accordance with the S.A.C. for each 24 hour period or
          fraction thereof will apply.




                                                       Page: AI-4 Date: 06/17/96
                                                       Dow:
                                                       CLEA:


     (b)  An allowance of one (1) hour without charge for spotting and one (1)
          hour without charge for pickup will be allowed (see Provision No. 4).

     (c)  When, in connection with such spotting, it becomes necessary to move
          tractor(s) without semi-trailers, the charges in the S.A.C. will apply
          covering the movement of such tractor(s) for the miles traveled from
          and the miles traveled to return to the Carrier's terminal from which
          the tractor(s) was(were) dispatched.

     (d)  When spotting is for the purpose of storage, the conditions and
          charges will be negotiated on a local basis and shown in Appendix II
          for that site location.

     (e)  Carrier agrees that Dow may move Carrier's trailers within Dow's
          premises; however, Dow will be responsible for any damage incurred to
          trailers during such movement.

     (f)  Dow will be liable for tank cleaning charge as provided in the S.A.C.,
          if applicable, when trailer is released from spotting.

10.  SUNDAY AND HOLIDAY SHIPMENTS

     If Carrier is required by Dow to load, pick-up, unload, or actually deliver
     on a Sunday or Holiday, the charge in the SAC will apply on a per unit
     basis.

     The intent is to compensate Carrier for "call-out" of local drivers to
     perform this work. The charge does not apply if the shipment is enroute
     over a Sunday or Holiday, but is loaded or unloaded (picked up or
     delivered) on any other day.

     The term "holiday" is hereby defined to include the following days or the
     day on which they are celebrated:

     New Year's Day           Independence Day           Thanksgiving Day
     Good Friday              Labor Day                  Christmas Day
     Memorial Day

     Carrier reserves the right to perform service on Sundays and Holidays (not
     requested, but consented to, by shipper upon Carrier's request) for
     operating reasons, in which case extra charges herein do not apply.

11.  STOP-OFF IN TRANSIT TO COMPLETE LOADING AND/OR FOR PARTIAL DELIVERY




                                                       Page: AI-5 Date: 06/17/96
                                                       Dow:
                                                       CLEA:


     (a)  Except as otherwise provided, shipments may be stopped in transit to
          complete loading and/or partial delivery.

     (b)  A shipment loaded at two or more places within the corporate limits of
          a single point of origin and/or delivered to two or more places within
          the corporate limits of a single destination, shall be considered as
          being stopped in transit to complete loading and/or partial delivery
          under the conditions of this provision.

     (c)  A shipment stopped in transit for partial delivery may be delivered to
          two or more consignees within the corporate limits of a single
          destination or may be delivered to two or more consignees at two or
          more destinations.

     (d)  To determine the mileage on shipments loaded at two or more places
          within the corporate limits of a single point of origin and/or
          delivered to two or more places within the corporate limits of a
          single destination, except as otherwise provided, see paragraph (f) of
          this provision.

     (e)  To determine the mileage on shipments loaded at two or more places
          which are not all within the corporate limits of a single point and/or
          delivered to two or more places which are not all within the corporate
          limits of a single destination, except as otherwise provided, see
          paragraph (f) of this Provision.

     (f)  To determine the applicable mileages for shipments made in paragraphs
          (d) and (e) of this provision, the Rand McNally MILEMAKER will apply
          and shall start at the point of loading and include the miles traveled
          by the vehicle via all stop-in-transit points to final destination or
          to the point at which the vehicle discharges the last portion of its
          cargo. Mileages so computed shall be used to determine the applicable
          rate for the entire shipment and shall apply on the number of gallons
          or pounds of commodity loaded at origin, subject to the minimums
          provided herein.

     (g)  In addition to all other lawful charges, an additional stop-off
          charge, as stated in the S.A.C., will apply. Such charge shall not be
          assessed at the origin or final destination.

     (h)  Aggregate total loading or unloading times will be charged for in
          accordance with Provision No. 4.

12.  WEIGHING VEHICLES

     (d)  The party which requests independent weighing of a shipment should pay
          weighing charge and all ensuing charges related to time and distance.

     In the absence of election of one of the foregoing methods, where a vehicle
     is weighed on public scale at the request of Dow or consignee, a charge
     (see the S.A.C.) shall be assessed for each weighing in addition to all
     other lawful charges.

     Time consumed in weighing vehicle, before or after loading, or both, at the

     subject to charges set forth in Provision No. 4.

     Time consumed in weighing vehicle, before or after unloading, or both, at
     the point of destination, shall be considered as time for unloading and
     subject to charges and other provisions as set forth in Provision No. 4.

     Carrier shall provide Dow and/or consignee with a calibration chart for the
     trailer utilized.

13.  ACCESSORIAL AND EMERGENCY SERVICES

     Accessorial and emergency service will be provided, if practicable, and
     such service charges shall be in accordance with the S.A.C.

     On Sundays and Holidays, time shall begin when Carrier's equipment leaves
     Carrier's terminal and continue until equipment is returned to the
     Carrier's terminal from which dispatched. Weekdays time will be computed
     Dow gate to gate. Any delay directly attributable to the Carrier will be
     subtracted from the total time. Time of equipment departure and arrival at
     the terminal will be indicated on the bill of lading or freight bill for
     each shipment.

     When a two-person sleeper team is required to handle a shipment and Dow or
     the consignee requires the second person to assist in loading and/or
     unloading or to evacuate the power vehicle a charge (see the S.A.C.) will
     apply. Time to be computed from the time the Carrier's equipment arrives at
     the loading or unloading gate until the time the Carrier's equipment
     departs from the loading or unloading gate.

     Charges set forth in the S.A.C. will be in addition to all other applicable
     charges and shall be paid by the party requesting this service.

14.  TANK CLEANING AND HEEL DISPOSAL

     When Carrier is requested to furnish a trailer for the transportation of
     products, which, because of its inherent nature requires cleaning and waste
     disposal before the trailer can be returned to service, the charges set
     forth in the S.A.C. will apply on the initial loading. These charges are in
     addition to all other lawful charges assessed against the shipment.

     Charges shall not be made on subsequent loading of the same trailer so long
     as said trailer remains continuously in the exclusive use of the same
     consignor, unless such consignor requests that the trailer be cleaned after
     delivery of any of these loadings, in which case the applicable additional
     charges shall be applied on the next loading of these products following
     such requested cleaning.

     When two or more products are shipped at one time in a compartmented
     trailer, the applicable cleaning charge will be the highest applicable
     charge on any product in the trailer.

15.  SPECIAL EQUIPMENT AND SERVICE

     When special equipment as listed below is required or requested by the
     consignor or consignee prior to movement of the shipment, such equipment,

          Carrier will apply heat for the length of time prescribed by the
          consignor or consignee. Heating time will be deemed to start at the
          time heat is applied to the lading and shall end when the heat is
          removed.

          It shall be the responsibility of the consignor or consignee to make
          arrangements for the use of steam and other heating facilities at its
          own expense, although Carrier will, if requested, attempt to locate
          such facilities and make arrangements for their use provided, however,
          that the consignor or consignee shall agree to be responsible for any
          expense incurred for the use of such facilities.

          Time consumed by heating at consignor's site of pick up and/or
          consignee's site of delivery shall be considered as loading and/or
          unloading time and shall be charged for as provided in Provision No.
          4.

     All charges set forth in this provision shall be in addition to all other
     lawful charges assessed against the shipment.

          until 8:00 a.m. Monday at such point, or in the vicinity thereof, and
          the driver is not required to remain on duty, the terms of Provision

          Sleeper Team for such weekend layover will apply.

          outlined in paragraph (a) will apply the same as if the vehicle had
          just arrived, except that time without charge as provided for in

     based) and point-to-point commodity rates, the rate that produces the
     lowest line haul transportation charge will apply.

     When shipments to, from, and between the United States and Canada are
     tendered and when there is a Dow Canada and a Dow U.S.A. contract, then the
     lowest contract freight rate in either contract will apply on either a
     prepaid or collect basis and the payment will be in U.S. funds only.

22.  ARBITRATION

     If any disputes or differences in interpretation arise other than provided
     under Provisions 1 through 21 above, such disputes will be resolved by
     negotiations between the two parties or by a mutually agreed upon
     arbitrator.

                                      BULK

ADDITIONAL CONTRACT PROVISIONS

1. COMMON CARRIER SERVICE NOT EXCLUDED

   The normal operations of Carrier as a motor Common Carrier shall not be
   affected by this Contract, nor shall Carrier be precluded from performing
   transportation services for Dow as a Common Carrier in connection with
   transportation services outside the scope of this Contract.

2. COMPUTATION OF MILEAGE

   Distances between all points shall be based upon Rand McNally MILEMAKER
   System as determined from the Household Goods Carriers' Bureau Milage Guide
   No. 14 or reissues thereof.

3. CONDITION OF TANKS TENDERED FOR LOADING

   Carrier will supply "clean, dry, and free of contaminating odor" tank
   equipment of the type needed for the product involved. Pumps and hoses must
   be free of contaminants, and hose ends (when not in use) must be protected
   from contamination.

4. DETENTION

   (a) Except as otherwise more specifically provided for in Appendix II of this
   Contract, two for loading without charge at any Dow or Dow designated
   location and two for unloading without charge at any consignee's location
   will be allowed.

   (b) A charge (see Standard Accessorial Chart (Hereinafter "S.A.C.")) for each
   hour or fraction thereof shall be assessed for the time Carrier's equipment
   is detained through no fault of the Carrier to complete the act of loading or
   unloading after the expiration of the times for these acts as specified in
   paragraph (a) of this Provision.

   (c) Any detention charge is not to exceed the amount as stated in the S.A.C.
   for any given 24 hour period.

   (d) If Dow causes the detention, Dow will pay. If consignee causes the
   detention, Carrier will bill the consignee. On stop-off shipments Carrier
   will bill the Dow shipping location for all unloading detention on a separate
   invoice.


                                                Page: AI-2       Date: 02/28/95
                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman



   (e) Time for loading is to be computed from the time of arrival of Carrier's
   equipment at the Dow scales to the time of departure from Dow's scales. Time
   for unloading is to be computed from the time of arrival of Carrier's
   equipment at any consignee's gate to the time of departure from consignee's
   gate.

5. CANCELLED VEHICLES

   Except as otherwise provided (see Exception), when a tractor-trailer unit is
   ordered by Dow and such order is subsequently cancelled or postponed by Dow
   after the vehicle has been dispatched from the Carrier's terminal, the
   charges in the S.A.C. will apply. In addition, the terms of Provision No. 4
   will apply, except that no time without charge shall be allowed.

Exception:  When the vehicle ordered is subsequently cancelled for the shipment
            of the commodity for which it was specifically ordered, but such
            vehicle is used in the shipment of the same commodity to a different
            destination, or is used in a shipment of a different commodity to
            the same destination or a different destination, the terms of this
            Provision will not apply if the vehicle, as presented, is acceptable
            for loading without cleaning, and if the vehicle is of an acceptable
            capacity to Dow. Furthermore, if cancellation is communicated to
            Carrier more than two hours prior to scheduled departure, this
            Provision does not apply.

6. DIVERSION OR RECONSIGNMENT

   Shipments moving on rates named in this Contract may be diverted or
   reconsigned in transit or at billed destination, subject to the following
   conditions:

   (a) The term "Diversion or Reconsignment" means a change in the name of
   consignee and/or destination of the entire shipment, or any other
   instructions given to the Carrier requiring an addition to, or change in,
   billing necessary to effect delivery or involving an additional movement of
   equipment.

   (b) On shipments diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading within the
   corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was originally
   consigned, the applicable rate from point of origin to destination will
   apply, in addition to the charge provided in the S.A.C.

   (c) On a shipment diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading not within
   the corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was originally
   consigned, the applicable rates (see Exception) shall be determined from
   mileage tables herein based on the mileage from point of origin to final
   destination over the route of actual movement as per Dows' instruction
   computed in accordance with Provision No. 2, and will apply in addition to
   the charges provided in the S.A.C.


                                                Page: AI-3       Date: 02/28/95
                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman



Exception:  When point of diversion or reconsignment is on the most direct
            highway route and is intermediate to the final destination, the rate
            to the final destination will apply.

   (d) On such movements, freight charges will be computed on the actual loaded
   movement miles.

   (e) The charge, (see S.A.C.) for each diversion or reconsignment, is in
   addition to all other applicable charges. This charge will be billed to
   company requesting diversion or reconsignment.

   (f) Time consumed in waiting for orders under this provision will be
   considered part of unloading time, and detention charges will be assessed as
   provided in Provision No. 4 above, if time without charge has elapsed.

   (g) A request for diversion or reconsignment must be made or confirmed in
   writing by the shipper. (Preferably with an amended bill of lading or
   shipping notice being presented to the Carrier.)

7. HOSE

   When hose is required or requested to effect either pickup or delivery, or
   both, of a single shipment, then either a two, three, or four inch inside
   diameter hose length(s) will be provided. All hoses will be provided without
   charge.

8. REJECTED SHIPMENTS

   If, for any reason not ascribable to the Carrier or its personnel, a shipment
   is rejected by the consignee at destination, notification to Dow shall be
   given in writing, telephone, or telegraph, requesting disposition.

   The charges to be applied on such rejected, returned shipments shall be in
   accordance with the S.A.C. as applied to the outbound shipment rates as
   published from the original point of origin to the original point of
   destination on the date of the returned shipment and shall be based on the
   actual weight of the product returned. Time consumed waiting for orders under
   this provision will be considered as part of unloading time, and detention
   charges will be assessed in accordance with Provision No. 4.

9. SPOTTING NON-POOLED SEMI-TRAILERS FOR LINE HAUL MOVEMENTS OR STORAGE

   (a) Except as otherwise provided, when, for Dow's convenience, Carrier is
   requested or required to place and leave a single semi-tank trailer on the
   premises of Dow, or any other practical site they may designate for the
   purpose of loading or unloading for a line haul movement a charge in
   accordance with the S.A.C. for each 24 hour period or fraction thereof will
   apply.

   (b) An allowance of one (1) hour without charge for spotting and one (1) hour
   without charge for pickup will be allowed (see Provision No. 4).


                                                Page: AI-4       Date: 02/28/95
                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman


   (c) When, in connection with such spotting, it becomes necessary to move
   tractor(s) without semi-trailers, the charges in the S.A.C. will apply
   covering the movement of such tractor(s) for the miles travelled from and the
   miles travelled to return to the carriers terminal from which the tractor(s)
   was (were) dispatched.

   (d) When spotting is for the purpose of storage, the conditions and charges
   will be negotiated on a local basis and shown in Appendix II for that site
   location.

   (e) Carrier agrees that Dow may move Carrier's trailers within Dow's
   premises; however, Dow will be responsible for any damage incurred to
   trailers during such movement.

   (f) Dow will be liable for tank cleaning charge as provided in the S.A.C., if
   applicable, when trailer is released from spotting.

10. SUNDAY AND HOLIDAY SHIPMENTS

   If Carrier is required by Dow to load, pick-up, unload, or actually deliver
   on a Sunday or Holiday, the charge in the SAC will apply on a per unit basis.

   The intent is to compensate Carrier for "call-out" of local drivers to
   perform this work. The charge does not apply if the shipment is enroute over
   a Sunday or Holiday, but is loaded or unloaded (picked up or delivered) on
   any other day.

   The term "holiday" is hereby defined to include the following days or the day
   on which they are celebrated:

New Year's Day      Canada Day                          Thanksgiving Day
Good Friday         St. Jean Baptiste (PQ only)         Christmas Day
Victoria Day        Civic Holiday (ON only)             Labour Day

   Carrier reserves the right to perform service on Sundays and Holidays (not
   requested, but consented to, by shipper upon Carrier's request) for operating
   reasons, in which case extra charges herein do not apply.

11. STOP-OFF IN TRANSIT TO COMPLETE LOADING AND/OR FOR PARTIAL DELIVERY

    (a) Except as otherwise provided, shipments may be stopped in transit to
    complete loading and/or partial delivery.

    (b) A shipment loaded at two or more places within the corporate limits of a
    single point of origin and/or delivered to two or more places within the
    corporate limits of a single destination, shall be considered as being
    stopped in transit to complete loading and/or partial delivery under the
    conditions of this provision.

    (c) A shipment stopped in transit for partial delivery may be delivered to
    two or more consignees within the corporate limits of a single destination
    or may be delivered to two or more consignees at two or more destinations.


                                                Page: AI-5       Date: 02/28/95
                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman




    (d) To determine the mileage on shipments loaded at two or more places
    within the corporate limits of a single point of origin and/or delivered to
    two or more places within the corporate limits of a single destination,
    except as otherwise provided, see paragraph (f) of this provision.

    (e) To determine the mileage on shipments loaded at two or more places which
    are not all within the corporate limits of a single point and/or delivered
    to two or more places which are not all within the corporate limits of a
    single destination, except as otherwise provided, see paragraph (f) of this
    Provision.

    (f) To determine the applicable mileages for shipments made in paragraphs
    (d) and (e) of this provision, the Rand McNally MILEMAKER will apply and
    shall start at the point of loading and include the miles travelled by the
    vehicle via all stop-in-transit points to final destination or to the point
    at which the vehicle discharges the last portion of its cargo. Mileages so
    computed shall be used to determine the applicable rate for the entire
    shipment and shall apply on the number of gallons or pounds of commodity
    loaded at origin, subject to the minimums provided herein.

    (g) In addition to all other lawful charges, an additional stop-off charge,
    as stated on the S.A.C., will apply. Such charge shall not be assessed at
    the origin or final destination.

    (h) Aggregate total loading or unloading times will be charged for in
    accordance with Provision No. 4.

12. WEIGHING VEHICLES

    Unless otherwise provided, freight charges shall, at Dow's option, be based
    on one of the following methods of weight determination:

    (a) The description of the commodity and the weight of the shipment shall be
    shown by Dow on the shipping order or bill of lading.

    (b) Dow shall show on shipping order or bill of lading the specific gravity
    at temperature loaded.

    (c) Dow shall show on shipping order or bill of lading the weight per gallon
    at temperature loaded.

    (d) The party which requests independent weighing of a shipment should pay
    weighing charge and all ensuing charges related to time and distance.


                                                Page: AI-6       Date: 02/28/95
                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman



    Time consumed in weighing vehicle, before or after loading, or both, at the
    point of shipment, shall be considered as part of time for loading and
    subject to charges set forth in Provision No. 4.

    Time consumed in weighing vehicle, before or after unloading, or both, at
    the point of destination, shall be considered as time for unloading and
    subject to charges and other provisions as set forth in Provision No. 4.

    Carrier shall provide Dow and/or consignee with a calibration chart for the
    trailer utilized.


13. ACCESSORIAL AND EMERGENCY SERVICES

    Accessorial and emergency service will be provided, if practicable, and such
    service charges shall be in accordance with the S.A.C.

    On Sundays and Holidays, time shall begin when Carrier's equipment leaves
    Carrier's terminal and continue until equipment is returned to the Carrier's
    terminal from which dispatched. Weekdays time will be computed Dow gate to
    gate. Any delay directly attributable to the Carrier will be subtracted from
    the total time. Time of equipment departure and arrival at the terminal will
    be indicated on the bill of lading or freight bill for each shipment.

13A. ASSISTANCE FROM OR EVACUATION OF POWER VEHICLE BY SECOND DRIVER 
     - LOADING/UNLOADING

    When a two-person sleeper team is required to handle a shipment and Dow or
    the consignee requires the second person to assist in loading and/or
    unloading or to evacuate the power vehicle a charge (see the S.A.C.) will
    apply. Time to be computed from the time the Carrier's equipment arrives
    at the loading or unloading gate until the time the Carrier's equipment
    departs from the loading or unloading gate.

    Charges set forth in the S.A.C. will be in addition to all other applicable
    charges and shall be paid by the party requesting this service.

14. TANK CLEANING AND HEEL DISPOSAL

    When Carrier is requested to furnish a trailer for the transporation of
    products, which, because of its inherent nature requires cleaning and waste
    disposal before the trailer can be returned to service, the charges set
    forth in the S.A.C. will apply on the initial loading. These charges are in
    addition to all other lawful charges assessed against the shipment.

    Charges shall not be made on subsequent loading of the same trailer so long
    as said trailer remains continuously in the exclusive use of the same
    consignor, unless such consignor requests that the trailer be cleaned after
    delivery of any of these loadings, in which case the applicable additional
    charges shall be applied on the next loading of these products following
    such requested cleaning.


                                                Page: AI-7       Date: 02/28/95

    When two or more products are shipped at one time in a compartmented
    trailer, the applicable cleaning charge will be the highest applicable
    charge on any product in the trailer.

15. SPECIAL EQUIPMENT AND SERVICE

    When special equipment as listed below is required or requested by the
    consignor or consignee prior to movement of the shipment, such equipment, if
    available, will be furnished by Carrier subject to charges in the S.A.C. Air
    Blowers, Air Compressors, Air Dryers, Nozzles, and Pumps will be provided,
    as requested, without charge.

    (a) Heating-in-transit Service: Except as otherwise provided, Carrier will,
    upon request of consignor or consignee, furnish, if available, a trailer
    and/or tractor equipped with a controlled heating-in-transit system subject
    to the charges in the S.A.C.

    (b) Heating Service: When, upon request, of consignor or consignee, a
    shipment is stopped in transit for the purpose of heating the lading by
    steam or any other means, the charges in the S.A.C. will apply.

    Carrier will apply heat for the length of time prescribed by the consignor
    or consignee. Heating time will be deemed to start at the time heat is
    applied to the lading and shall end when the heat is removed.

    It shall be the responsibility of the consignor or consignee to make
    arrangements for the use of steam and other heating facilities at its own
    expense, although Carrier will, if requested, attempt to locate such
    facilities and make arrangements for their use provided, however, that the
    consignor or consignee shall agree to be responsible for any expense
    incurred for the use of such facilities.

    Time consumed by heating at consignor's site of pick up and/or consignee's
    site of delivery shall be considered as loading and/or unloading time and
    shall be charged for as provided in Provision No. 4.

    All charges set forth in this provision shall be in addition to all other
    lawful charges assessed against the shipment.

    Dow or consignee cannot complete loading and/or unloading on the day of
    arrival, the time the vehicle is detained between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.,
    or the time the driver is released if later than 5:00 p.m., will be charged
    according to the terms of Provision No. 4 If the vehicle (tractor and/or
    trailer) is detained over the weekend until 8:00 a.m. Monday at such point,

    whichever applies will be applicable.

17. SERVICE PERFORMANCE

    The Dow - Carrier Quality Team will review and assess the performance of the
    Carrier. Joint recommendations will be made to the Carrier to enhance the
    level of service provided to Dow. The joint Quality Team will meet a minimum
    of four (4) times per year, unless it is mutually agreed to increase or
    decrease the number of meetings required. The Carrier will be managing
    service levels with Dow using the Carrier Self-reporting mechanism set up by
    Dow.

    Carrier warrants that he will perform all duties of a "generator" as
    identified by the EPA in 40 CRF 260.10 and that any cleaning facilities used
    will meet all Resource Conservation and Recovery Act requirements.

19. DRUMMING FROM TANK TRAILERS

    Carrier will not off-load hazardous materials (as defined by DOT) from
    trailers into drums. If consignee should request Carrier to do this, Carrier
    shall refuse and notify Dow of same. Products designated as combustible are
    exempt from this policy.

20. CURRENCY

    Freight rates and/or charges applicable under the terms or Provisions of
    this Contract shall be states and payable in both U.S. and Canadian funds
    only, as defined in Appendix 2.

21. ALTERNATION OF RATES

    In Appendix II, where there is a conflict between tabular rates (mileage
    based) and point-to-point commodity rates, the rate that produces the lowest
    line haul transportation charge will apply.

    When shipments to, from, and between the United States and Canada are
    tendered and when there is a Dow Canada and a Dow U.S.A. contract, then the
    lowest contract freight rate in either contract will apply on either a
    prepaid or collect basis and the payment will be in U.S. fund only.

22. ARBITRATION

    If any disputes or differences in interpretation arise other than provided
    under Provisions 1 through 21 above, such disputes will be resolved by
    negotiations between the two parties or by a mutually agreed upon
    arbitrator.

                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman



                      UNIFORM BULK MOTOR CARRIER CONTRACT


This is a Contract to provide for international, interprovincial and
intraprovincial, where applicable, motor carrier transportation of various
cargoes between or among various geographic points, dated the 28th day of
February 1995, by and between Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Incorporated
(hereinafter "Carrier") and Dow Chemical Canada Incorporated (hereinafter
"Dow").

Dow is a diversified manufacturer of basic chemicals, plastics, specialty
products and services and has a need for transportation service in the
furtherance of its business. Carrier is a motor carrier desirous of providing
transportation service to Dow.

Therefore, in consideration of the premises, covenants and agreements contained
herein, the parties agree as follows:

1.  Pursuant to this non-exclusive transportation Contract Dow agrees to tender
    not less than twelve (12) shipments per year to Carrier for transportation
    and delivery as directed by Dow's Shipping Order/Bill of Lading which will
    accompany each tender, provided that if Carrier is unable to accomplish such
    transportation in whole or in part, Dow may make such shipments via other
    arrangements.

2.  Carrier shall receive from Dow such quantities of goods as may be tendered
    for transportation from time to time, and Carrier shall make all reasonable
    effort to have the required equipment available, with trailer exteriors and
    interiors clean and presentable as befits a Dow quality load. Carrier will
    provide, as requested, a general list of all Carrier controlled or
    commercial cleaning locations where trailers have been cleaned after
    transporting Dow produced or purchased products.

3.  Carrier shall transport and carry the goods without delay caused by anything
    in Carrier's control. Any and all occurrences which would be probable or
    certain cause for delay of delivery shall be immediately communicated to Dow
    by Carrier. In addition, Carrier will furnish when its capabilities are
    developed, via electronic data interchange, periodic transmissions of data
    elements of each Dow shipment and receipt in format specified by the United
    States Electronic Data Interchange Standards published by the Transportation
    Data Coordinating Committee, as well as similar data elements for automated
    payment of freight bills.

4.  Dow agrees to pay Carrier, as compensation for such transportation, the
    rates and charges shown in Appendices I and II to this Contract. All changes
    must be


                                                Page: 2      Date: 09/22/95
                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman


    approved in writing by both parties. All rates will apply to both prepaid
    and collect shipments. In the event that the consignee also has a contract
    rate in effect with the Carrier and the shipment is tendered on a "freight
    collect" basis, the consignee's contract rate will apply in lieu of rates
    included in this Contract. If, on collect shipments, consignee fails to pay
    Carrier's freight bills after Carrier has made a conscientious effort to
    collect, Dow will pay such freight bills, provided Carrier furnishes proof
    of efforts to collect from consignee.

5.  Carrier personnel (including driving personnel, whether employees of Carrier
    or of Carrier's agents known as "fleet operators" or "leased operators")
    will comply with all plant rules and regulations while on Dow's or
    consignee's plant premises. Carrier shall inform all of its employees and
    personnel who may come onto such premises of this requirement. Any Carrier
    employee or person who does not comply with all plant rules and regulations
    may be summarily rejected and directed to immediately leave the premises at
    the exclusive risk and expense of the Carrier. Carrier agrees to utilize
    adequate motor truck equipment and qualified personnel for performance of
    its obligations under this Contract, an to operate its business at all times
    in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules, and
    regulations. Worker's Compensation Insurance for Carrier's drivers or
    operators, if required, shall be obtained and maintained at the exclusive
    cost and risk of Carrier.

6.  Carrier shall comply with the financial responsibility requirements of the
    appropriate federal and provincial regulatory agency through which the
    Carrier operates.

    Carrier shall procure and maintain, at the expense of the Carrier, liability
    insurance with a reputable and financially responsible insurance carrier
    properly insuring Carrier against liabilities and claims (a) for injuries to
    persons (including injuries resulting in death) and damage to property, in
    an amount, in the case of each casualty, of not less than $5,000,000 cad;
    and (b) for loss of or damage to freight, in an amount not less than
    $250,000 cad with respect to each shipment. Carrier shall have his insurance
    carrier(s) furnish directly to Dow or its contractor certificates that such
    coverage is in effect, and will instruct carrier to directly notify Dow or
    its contractor if coverage is cancelled or changed.

7.  Carrier shall indemnify, defend, and hold Dow, its employees and agents
    harmless from claims, demands and causes of action asserted against Dow, its
    employees or agents, by any other person (including without limitation
    Carrier's and Dow's employees) for personal injury or death or for loss of
    or damage to property and resulting from the willful or negligent acts or
    omissions of Carrier. Dow shall indemnify, defend, and hold Carrier, its
    employees, agents, and subcontractors harmless from claims, demands, and
    causes of action asserted against Carrier, its employees, agents, or
    subcontractors by any other person (including without limitation Dow's and
    Carrier's employees) for personal injury or death or for loss of or damage
    to property and resulting from the willful or negligent acts or omissions of
    Dow. Where personal injury, death, or loss of or damage to property is the
    result of the joint negligence or misconduct of Dow and Carrier, the parties
    expressly agree to indemnify each other in proportion to its share of such
    joint negligence or misconduct.

                                                Dow:
                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman


8.  Carrier assumes complete responsibility and liability regardless of the
    fault of any person for all loss of, or damage to, goods transported
    hereunder, except where caused in whole or in part by Dow's negligence or
    acts of God in which Carrier had no contributory negligence. In those cases
    Dow will assume responsibility and liability for only that portion of the
    loss or damage caused by Dow's negligence and Carrier shall be liable for
    the remainder. Carrier's responsibility for damage or loss to goods
    transported shall commence from the time of acceptance at the shipping point
    until delivery at the proper destination in accordance with Dow's written
    instructions.

    In the event of loss or damage during transit, except as limited in this
    paragraph above, Carrier shall pay Dow the full value of the lost or damaged
    goods plus any and all additional transportation costs. Value of the lost or
    damaged goods shall be determined by type of sale in the following manner:

    Trade Sale: Dow will provide Carrier with invoice documentation.

    Non-Trade Sale: Value will be determined as reported weekly in the Chemical
    Marketing Reporter or Dow's Price Book if the product(s) is not covered
    specifically in the Chemical Marketing Reporter.

    When used in this Contract, "shipping point" means the place where the goods
    or cargo are tendered by Dow to the custody of Carrier or Carrier's agent
    for transportation.

    For all shipments rated under this agreement, no claims for overcharges or
    undercharges will be made by either party after one (1) year from date of
    shipment.

9.  Any assignment of any benefit or obligation of this Contract, in whole or in
    part, by either party, without the prior express written consent of the
    other party, shall be void and of no effect.

10. This Contract shall become effective upon the date of the permit (if one is
    issued) by the appropriate federal or provincial agency, or the last date in
    the signatory provision below, whichever is later, and shall continue for
    one (1) year and thereafter from year to year unless:

    (a) cancelled by either party at any time upon thirty (30) days' written
    notice to the other party at the address stated below; or

    (b) Carrier's loss or revocation of authority (for any reason) by any
    federal or provincial regulatory body having jurisdiction over Carrier's
    operation, and/or cancellation of Carrier's insurance policy, in which case
    this Contract can be terminated immediately; or

    (c) Cancelled by either party upon material breach by the other party of any
    obligation contained herein.

    Carrier should give Dow immediate notice of the occurrence of any event
    covered by subsection (b). The obligation contained in paragraphs 7, 8 and
    15 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

12. Carrier shall be an independent contractor under this Contract and shall
    assume all of the rights, obligations and liabilities applicable to it as
    such. Neither Carrier nor any of its employees or agents shall be considered
    an employee of Dow, nor shall any partnership, co-venture or joint-employer
    relationship be created by virtue of this Contract or of its performance. No
    prior course of dealing or performance between Carrier and Dow shall modify
    Carrier's status under this Contract as an independent contractor.

13. Dow agrees to pay all uncontested charges within thirty (30) days after
    receipt of the freight invoice through Dow's payment department or payment
    agent.

14. This Contract is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario for general
    contract matters.

15. Carrier agrees to keep secret all Dow technical and business information
    which it has received or may receive and not to reveal or to divulge such
    information to third parties or to use, or to publish it in any manner
    whatsoever without obtaining Dow's prior written approval; provided,
    however, that Carrier shall not be bound to keep secret any such information
    which (a) was known to Carrier prior to the date of the Contract from
    sources other than Dow, or (b) which is or becomes available to the public
    without fault on Carrier's part, or (c) which is disclosed to Carrier by a
    party not related, directly or indirectly, to Dow, who has rightful claim to
    such information. Carrier shall only use Dow technical and business
    information to provide the services required under this Contract.

16. This Contract states the entire agreement between the parties and there are
    no other agreements or understandings whatsoever, expressed or implied.

                                                Carrier: Chemical Leaman


    Amendments or modifications to this Contract must be made in writing,
    identified as an amendment or modification and signed by both Dow and
    Carrier. Any term or provision in any prior or subsequent writing to the
    date of this Contract which is in conflict with any term or provision of
    this Contract is objected to and rejected.

17. Should any provision of this Contract be determined by competent public
    authority or court to be invalid or unenforceable, then such invalid or
    unenforceable provision shall be severed from this Contract without effect
    on the validity of the remaining provisions.

18. If Carrier accepts instructions from a non-Dow party or consignee, all
    resultant, legitimate charges will be billed by Carrier to the party causing
    the charge to occur.

19. In cases whereby Carrier is in a single source position, a policy that does
    not allow Carrier to turn down requests for transportation of goods is in
    effect. Carrier will have to make arrangements with other Dow approved
    carriers for the transportation of all goods from the location where Carrier
    is the only designated carrier.

The services provided by carrier hereunder are designed to meet the distinct
needs of Dow.

In Witness Whereof, the parties have executed this Contract on the date shown
below.

    will apply, except that no time without charge shall be allowed.

    Exception: When the vehicle ordered is subsequently cancelled for the
               shipment of the commodity for which it was specifically ordered,
               but such vehicle is used in the shipment of the same commodity to
               a different destination, or is used in a shipment of a different
               commodity to the same destination or a different destination, the
               terms of this Provision will not apply if the vehicle, as
               presented, is acceptable for loading without cleaning, and if the
               vehicle is of an acceptable capacity to Dow. Furthermore, if
               cancellation is communicated to Carricr more than two hours prior

        movement of equipment.

    (b) On shipments diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading within the
        corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was 
        originally consigned, the applicable rate from point of origin to 
        destination will apply, in addition to the charge provided in the S.A.C.

    (c) On a shipment diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading not within
        the corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was
        originally consigned, the applicable rates (see Exception) shall be

                   direct highway route and is intermediate to the final 
                   destination, the rate to the final destination will apply.

    (d) On such movements, freight charges will be computed on the actual loaded
        movement miles.

    (e) The charge, (see S.A.C.) for each diversion or reconsignment. is in

    accordance with the S.A.C. as applied to the outbound shipment rates as
    published from the original point of origin to the original point of
    destination on the date of the returned shipment and shall be based on the
    actual weight of the product returned. Time consumed waiting for orders
    under this provision will be considered as part of unloading time, and
    detention charges will be assessed in accordance with Provision No. 4.

    (a) Except as otherwise provided, when, for Dow's convenience, Carrier is
        requested or required to place and leave a single semi-tank trailer on
        the premises of Dow, or any other practical site they may designate for
        the purpose of loading or unloading for a line haul movement a charge in

        and the miles travelled to return to the Carrier's terminal from which 
        the tractor(s) was(were) dispatched.

    (d) When spotting is for the purpose of storage, the conditions and charges

    If Carrier is required by Dow to load, pick-up, unload, or actually deliver
    on a Sunday or Holiday, the charge in the SAC will apply on a per unit
    basis.

    The intent is to compensate Carrier for "call-out" of local drivers to
    perform this work. The charge does not apply if the shipment is enroute over
    a Sunday or Holiday, but is loaded or unloaded (picked up or delivered) on

        the entire shipment and shall apply on the number of gallons or pounds
        of commodity loaded at origin, subject to the minimums provided herein.

    (g) In addition to all other lawful charges, an additional stop-off charge,

                      UNIFORM BULK MOTOR CARRIER CONTRACT

This is a Contract to provide for international, interprovincial and
intraprovincial, where applicable, motor carrier transportation of various
cargoes between or among various geographic points, dated the 28th day of
February 1995, by and between Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Incorporated
(hereinafter "Carrier") and Dow Chemical Canada Incorporated (hereinafter
"Dow").

Dow is a diversified manufacturer of basic chemicals, plastics, specialty
products and services and has a need for transportation service in the
furtherance of its business. Carrier is a motor carrier desirous of providing
transportation service to Dow.

Therefore, in consideration of the premises, covenants and agreements contained
herein, the parties agree as follows:

1.   Pursuant to this non-exclusive transportation Contract Dow agrees to tender
     not less than twelve (12) shipments per year to Carrier for transportation
     and delivery as directed by Dow's Shipping Order/Bill of Lading which will
     accompany each tender, provided that if Carrier is unable to accomplish 
     such transportation in whole or in part, Dow may make such shipments via 
     other arrangements.

2.   Carrier shall receive from Dow such quantities of goods as may be tendered
     for transportation from time to time, and Carrier shall make all reasonable
     effort to have the required equipment available, with trailer exteriors and
     interiors clean and presentable as befits a Dow quality load. Carrier will
     provide, as requested, a general list of all Carrier controlled or
     commercial cleaning locations where trailers have been cleaned after
     transporting Dow produced or purchased products.

3.   Carrier shall transport and carry the goods without delay caused by
     anything in Carrier's control. Any and all occurrences which would be
     probable or certain cause for delay of delivery shall be immediately
     communicated to Dow by Carrier. In addition, Carrier will furnish when its
     capabilities are developed, via electronic data interchange, periodic
     transmissions of data elements of each Dow shipment and receipt in format
     specified by the United States Electronic Data Interchange Standards
     published by the Transportation Data Coordinating Committee, as well as
     similar data elements for automated payment of freight bills.

4.   Dow agrees to pay Carrier, as compensation for such transportation, the
     rates and charges shown in Appendices I and II to this Contract. All
     changes must be





                                                       Page: 2 Date: 09/22/95
                                                       Dow:                  
                                                       Carrier: Chemical Leaman


     approved in writing by both parties. All rates will apply to both prepaid
     and collect shipments. In the event that the consignee also has a contract
     rate in effect with the Carrier and the shipment is tendered on a "freight
     collect" basis, the consignee's contract rate will apply in lieu of rates
     included in this Contract. If, on collect shipments, consignee fails to pay
     Carrier's freight bills after Carrier has made a conscientious effort to
     collect, Dow will pay such freight bills, provided Carrier furnishes proof
     of efforts to collect from consignee.

5.   Carrier personnel (including driving personnel, whether employees of
     Carrier or of Carrier's agents known as "fleet operators" or "leased
     operators") will comply with all plant rules and regulations while on Dow's
     or consignee's plant premises. Carrier shall inform all of its employees
     and personnel who may come onto such premises of this requirement. Any
     Carrier employee or person who does not comply with all plant rules and
     regulations may be summarily rejected and directed to immediately leave the
     premises at the exclusive risk and expense of the Carrier. Carrier agrees
     to utilize adequate motor truck equipment and qualified personnel for
     performance of its obligations under this Contract, and to operate its
     business at all times in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and
     local laws, rules, and regulations. Worker's Compensation Insurance for
     Carrier's drivers or operators, if required, shall be obtained and
     maintained at the exclusive cost and risk of Carrier.

6.   Carrier shall comply with the financial responsibility requirements of the
     appropriate federal and provincial regulatory agency through which the
     Carrier operates.

     Carrier shall procure and maintain, at the expense of the Carrier,
     liability insurance with a reputable and financially responsible insurance
     carrier properly insuring Carrier against liabilities and claims (a) for
     injuries to persons (including injuries resulting in death) and damage to
     property, in an amount, in the case of each casualty, of not less than
     $5,000,000cad; and (b) for loss of or damage to freight, in an amount not
     less than $250,000cad with respect to each shipment. Carrier shall have his
     insurance carrier(s) furnish directly to Dow or its contractor certificates
     that such coverage is in effect, and will instruct carrier to directly
     notify Dow or its contractor if coverage is cancelled or changed.

7.   Carrier shall indemnify, defend, and hold Dow, its employees and agents
     harmless from claims, demands, and causes of action asserted against Dow,
     its employees or agents, by any other person (including without limitation
     Carrier's and Dow's employees) for personal injury or death or for loss of
     or damage to property and resulting from the willful or negligent acts or
     omissions of Carrier. Dow shall indemnify, defend, and hold Carrier, its
     employees, agents, and subcontractors harmless from claims, demands, and
     causes of action asserted against Carrier, its employees, agents, or
     subcontractors by any other person (including without limitation Dow's and
     Carrier's employees) for personal injury or death or for loss of or damage
     to property and resulting from the willful or negligent acts or omissions
     of Dow. Where personal injury, death, or loss of or damage to property is
     the result of the joint negligence or misconduct of Dow and Carrier, the
     parties expressly agree to indemnify each other in proportion to its share
     of such joint negligence or misconduct.

                                                       Carrier: Chemical Leaman


8.   Carrier assumes complete responsibility and liability regardless of the
     fault of any person for all loss of, or damage to, goods transported
     hereunder, except where caused in whole or in part by Dow's negligence or
     acts of God in which Carrier had no contributory negligence. In those cases
     Dow will assume responsibility and liability for only that portion of the
     loss or damage caused by Dow's negligence and Carrier shall be liable for
     the remainder. Carrier's responsibility for damage or loss to goods
     transported shall commence from the time of acceptance at the shipping
     point until delivery at the proper destination in accordance with Dow's
     written instructions.

     In the event of loss or damage during transit, except as limited in this
     paragraph above, Carrier shall pay Dow the full value of the lost or
     damaged goods plus any and all additional transportation costs. Value of
     the lost or damaged goods shall be determined by type of sale in the
     following manner:

     Trade Sale: Dow will provide Carrier with invoice documentation.

     Non-Trade Sale: Value will be determined as reported weekly in the Chemical
     Marketing Reporter or Dow's Price Book if the product(s) is not covered
     specifically in the Chemical Marketing Reporter.

     When used in this Contract, "shipping point" means the place where the
     goods or cargo are tendered by Dow to the custody of Carrier or Carrier's
     agent for transportation.

     For all shipments rated under this agreement, no claims for overcharges or
     undercharges will be made by either party after one (1) year from date of
     shipment.

9.   Any assignment of any benefit or obligation of this Contract, in whole or
     in part, by either party, without the prior express written consent of the
     other party, shall be void and of no effect.

10.  This Contract shall become effective upon the date of the permit (if one is
     issued) by the appropriate federal or provincial agency, or the last date
     in the signatory provision below, whichever is later, and shall continue
     for one (1) year and thereafter from year to year unless:

     (a)  cancelled by either party at any time upon thirty (30) days' written
          notice to the other party at the address stated below; or

     (b)  Carrier's loss or revocation of authority (for any reason) by any
          federal or provincial regulatory body having jurisdiction over
          Carrier's operation, and/or cancellation of Carrier's insurance
          policy, in which case this Contract can be terminated immediately; or

     (c)  Cancelled by either party upon material breach by the other party of
          any obligation contained herein.

     Carrier should give Dow immediate notice of the occurrence of any event
     covered by subsection (b). The obligation contained in paragraphs 7, 8 and
     15 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

12.  Carrier shall be an independent contractor under this Contract and shall
     assume all of the rights, obligations and liabilities applicable to it as
     such. Neither Carrier nor any of its employees or agents shall be
     considered an employee of Dow, nor shall any partnership, co-venture or
     joint-employer relationship be created by virtue of this Contract or of its
     performance. No prior course of dealing or performance between Carrier and
     Dow shall modify Carrier's status under this Contract as an independent
     contractor.

13.  Dow agrees to pay all uncontested charges within thirty (30) days after
     receipt of the freight invoice through Dow's payment department or payment
     agent.

14.  This Contract is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario for
     general contract matters.

15.  Carrier agrees to keep secret all Dow technical and business information
     which it has received or may receive and not to reveal or to divulge such
     information to third parties or to use, or to publish it in any manner
     whatsoever without obtaining Dow's prior written approval; provided,
     however, that Carrier shall not be bound to keep secret any such
     information which (a) was known to Carrier prior to the date of the
     Contract from sources other than Dow, or (b) which is or becomes available
     to the public without fault on Carrier's part, or (c) which is disclosed to
     Carrier by a party not related, directly or indirectly, to Dow, who has
     rightful claim to such information. Carrier shall only use Dow technical
     and business information to provide the services required under this
     Contract.

16.  This Contract states the entire agreement between the parties and there are
     no other agreements or understandings whatsoever, expressed or implied.

                                                       Carrier: Chemical Leaman



     Amendments or modifications to this Contract must be made in writing,
     identified as an amendment or modification and signed by both Dow and
     Carrier. Any term or provision in any prior or subsequent writing to the
     date of this Contract which is in conflict with any term or provision of
     this Contract is objected to and rejected.

17.  Should any provision of this Contract be determined by competent public
     authority or court to be invalid or unenforceable, then such invalid or
     unenforceable provision shall be severed from this Contract without effect
     on the validity of the remaining provisions.

18.  If Carrier accepts instructions from a non-Dow party or consignee, all
     resultant, legitimate charges will be billed by Carrier to the party
     causing the charge to occur.

19.  In cases whereby Carrier is in a single source position, a policy that does
     not allow Carrier to turn down requests for transportation of goods is in
     effect. Carrier will have to make arrangements with other Dow approved
     carriers for the transportation of all goods from the location where
     Carrier is the only designated carrier.

The services provided by Carrier hereunder are designed to meet the distinct
needs of Dow.

In Witness Whereof, the parties have executed this Contract on the date shown
below.

                                  May 30, 1996


Mr. M. W. Humphries
Sr. Motor Carrier Services Buyer                    Via Overnight Mail
Dow Chemical Company USA
2020 Building
Midland, MI 48674

Dear Mr. Humphries:

As promised, we have enclosed a mockup of the following tariff /contract pages
which reflects the reduction of linehaul rates and the elimination of all free
time (4 hours) at $32/hour.

       CONTRACT 4015
       CONTRACT 4630
       CONTRACT 4800
       INTRA GEORGIA TARIFF
       MDOW - INTRA MICHIGAN

All rate pages contain the current and new rates. In some instances, we have
attached mileage rate tables containing the new rates. Please note that rate
item numbers are entered adjacent to each linehaul rate item. The package is
separated into 27 numbered sections to facilitate reference. All changes,
additions and comments appear in red ink for easy identification.

We used the following methodology in the development of the new linehaul rates
which have been reduced by $128 per shipment ($32/hour * 4 hours).

  CURRENT                             NEW
  EXPRESSION                          EXPRESSION

  FLAT CHARGES PER
  SHIPMENT (AQ)                       Current dollars per Shipment less $128.

  PER MILE RATES                      Formula Rates. We used the fixed charge 
                                      component of the formula rate expressed 
                                      as a negative (-) charge per shipment.

  FORMULA RATES                       Same rate expression. Deducted $128 from 
                                      the fixed charge component In some 
                                      instances, this results in a negative (-)
                                      fixed charge.






  MINIMUM CHARGES                     Eliminated all current minimum charges.
                                      These are to be replaced by the Schedule 
                                      of Minimum Charges (attached).

  FREE TIME                           NONE

  CENTS PER CWT.                       Deducted the result of Dividing $128 by
                                       the minimum hundred weight, rounded to
                                       next whole cent if .5 or greater.

  OTHER THAN STANDARD                  Deducted $32/hr based on the hours
  FREE TIME (specified in item)        specified in the item (few occurrences).
                                       In one case, unloading free time was 
                                       8 hours and we deducted eight + 2 hours 
                                       for loading.

  RUNNING MILE RATES                   Without major reprogramming, we cannot
                                       accept negative fixed charges billed in
                                       connection with running mile rates. In 
                                       all cases, we have had no traffic in 
                                       these items as indicated. You may wish 
                                       to cancel these items.

APPLICATION OF MINIMUM                 Minimum Charges apply when the sum of the
CHARGES                                new linehaul charges and total detention
                                       charges is LESS THAN the Minimum Charge 
                                       for the mileage distance shown.

The new rates will be loaded into our billing system to enable billing under
the new arrangement effective June 7, 1996, as agreed.

I trust you will be able to verify the new rates easily. If I can be of any
assistance to your staff, please contact me at 610-363-4275.

                                              Sincerely,

  Re:      Dow Contract Revision

Dow has asked CLTL to reduce our linehaul rates by taking the load/unload free
time out of the rate and billing all hours actually spent loading and unloading.
After much negotiation, we agreed to the following:

o      We will reduce linehaul rates by $32.00 per hour for a total of 
       4 hours (2 load/2 unload).

o      We will begin billing load and unload detention in hourly increments 
       after the first 6 minutes of each hour incurred.

o      We are implementing the following per load minimums for all loads 
       between 0-225 one way miles.

   One-Way Billed Miles            Proposed Minimum Charge
   --------------------            -----------------------
            0-10                           $210
           11-25                           $250
           26-50                           $290
           51-75                           $300
           76-100                          $375
          101-125                          $433
          126-150                          $480
          151-175                          $515
          176-200                          $575
          201-225                          $585
                                        
       For this shorthaul work, the new linehaul charge to be calculated by
       excluding 4 hours at $32.00 per hour from the existing linehaul rate. We
       would calculate the actual load/unload hours incurred at $32.00 per hour
       and add it to the new linehaul rate to determine the new actual movement
       cost. The new billing to Dow will be the greater of the actual movement
       cost or the minimum charge noted above.






       This new agreement is effective June 7, 1996. It is critical that we
       properly bill all detention, without exception, in order to recoup the
       reduced linehaul revenue. Please pay particular attention to this change.

       Also, note that we will compare the "old" Dow contract to the "new" Dow
       contract by shipper plant site origin/destinations using actual data for
       the 4th Quarter of 1995. George Ciarlone will communicate the results of
       this to you.

       We believe that these changes should be profit neutral in the aggregate
       and should not require any systematic changes to the way we pay drivers,
       except for when drivers do preloading and no other portion of the
       linehaul movement. In this case the preloader will not share in the first
       2 hours of load detention billed.

       Please contact me or George with any questions.

     This is to confirm phone conversations this afternoon regarding the re-
     assumption of the Dow contract by Chemical Leaman.

     1. Amend recent RA30's to reflect detention dollars taken out of the rates.
        (Keeler)

     2. Send the full updated Dow contract via computer disk to G. Ciarlone for
        review. (J. Mason 10/1/96)

     3. Provide a conversion date to all parties as to when CLTL system will be
        updated with the Dow contract. (Ciarlone)
   
     4. CLTL to publish contract with CLTL item numbers but in Dow page format.
        (Ciarlone)

     5. Fax sample copy of updated page to M. Humphreys/J. Mason for review
         prior to final CLTL update. (L. Kilroy/J. Keeler)

     6. Dow required 3 weeks to upload their system with revised CLTL item
        numbers prior to final completion. Need date when item numbers are
        available to allow for Dow updates. (Ciarlone/Kilroy)

     Note: current Dow locations where detention remains in the rate with ZERO
           backout are: Bayonne, NJ; Varennes, PQ, Inbound from non-Dow vendors
           collect under the Dow contract.

     Please let me know if I have overlooked anything. George, please provide
     your drop dead dates based on your receiving the disk by 10/1/96.

Subject: MULTI COMPT TANK CLEANING @ DOW CONTRACT
- -------------------------------- Message Contents -----------------------------

     There appears to be continued confusion as to the billing rules for multi
     compartment tank cleanings for the Dow contract. I discussed this issue
     with Mike Humphreys yesterday and following is how the provision is to
     work:

     1. S.A.C. provision in the Dow contract contains an item under "special
        equipment and service", Item A: $90 for compartmented trailers.

        This item is to cover the additional cost of cleaning a multi 
        compartment trailer, regardless of the # of compartments.

     2. Line haul charges in the Dow contract are the same for both single and
        multi compartment shipments unless specifically segregated, which we 
        have in many instances.

     If anyone has any questions please let me know. Again, $90 add-on
     regardless of # of compartments on multi-c trailer to cover extra cleaning
     costs.

     Sally, please pass along to Georgianna as she is not on cc:mail.

                   MEASUREMENT PROGRAM FOR QUALITY PERFORMANCE
                   -------------------------------------------

Carrier and Shipper mutually agree to review Carrier's service performance at
the end of each calendar quarter of the term of this Agreement. For the purpose
of this performance incentive, a service failure is defined as any
carrier-related non-conformance reported via the Dow North America Quarterly
Carrier Performance Summary shown below.

Carrier's service performance shall be calculated as the total number of Carrier
controllable failures in the immediately preceding quarter divided by the total
number of carrier loads in that quarter, multiplied by 100 to convert to a
percentage. This result will then be subtracted from 100 to arrive at the
Carrier's quarterly performance rating.

Incentives and penalties will be calculated as a percentage of the total
linehaul charges for the quarter for which the quarterly performance rating is
calculated. Incentives and penalties will be paid within forty-five (45) days of
the end of said quarter. Incentives and penalties will be calculated using the
scale shown below. Maximum incentive or penalty shall be $25,000 per quarter.

       Performance Level                                  Incentive/(Penalty)

     Just to confirm your voicemail message today .... as you indicated you give
your okay to implement rates for Dow off your RA30 in lieu of a signed contract

         MILES           MIN. CHG

          0-10             $210

         11-25             $250 (CHANGED FROM $275)
         26-50             $290
         51-75             $300
         76-100            $375
         101-125           $433

                                      BULK

ADDITIONAL CONTRACT PROVISIONS

1. COMMON CARRIER SERVICE NOT EXCLUDED

The normal operations of Carrier as a motor Common Carrier shall not be affected
by this Contract, nor shall Carrier be precluded from performing transportation
services for Dow as a Common Carrier in connection with transportation services
outside the scope of this Contract.

2. COMPUTATION OF MILEAGE

Distances between all points shall be based upon Rand McNally MILEMAKER System
as determined from the Household Goods Carriers' Bureau Mileage Guide No. 14 or
reissues thereof.

3. CONDITION OF TANKS TENDERED FOR LOADING

Carrier will supply "clean, dry, and free of contaminating odor" tank equipment
of the type needed for the product involved. Pumps and hoses must be free of
contaminants, and hose ends (when not in use) must be protected from
contamination.

o 4. DETENTION

     (a) Except as otherwise more specifically provided for in Appendix II of
         this Contract, no free time will be allowed for loading at any Dow or
         Dow designated location and no free time will be allowed for unloading
         at any consignee's location.

     (b) Paragraphs not brought forward 
     (f) are hereby canceled Effective: 06-17-96


o Denotes Change



                                                 Page: AI-2 Rev 1 Date 6/17/96
                                                 Dow:
                                                 CLEA:


     (c) Carrier will provide quarterly reports which show the following:
         (1) average load time by plant
         (2) average unload time by customer

     (d) Time for loading is to be computed from the time of arrival of
         Carrier's equipment at the Dow gate to the time of departure from Dow's
         gate. Time for unloading is to be computed from the time of arrival of
         Carrier's equipment at any consignee's gate to the time of departure
         from consignee's gate.

5. CANCELLED VEHICLES

Except as otherwise provided (see Exception), when a tractor-trailer unit is
ordered by Dow and such order is subsequently cancelled or postponed by Dow
after the vehicle has been dispatched from the Carrier's terminal, the charges
in the S.A.C. will apply. In addition, the terms of Provision No. 4 will apply,
except that no time without charge shall be allowed.

Exception: When the vehicle ordered is subsequently cancelled for the shipment
           of the commodity for which it was specifically ordered, but such
           vehicle is used in the shipment of the same commodity to a different
           destination, or is used in a shipment of a different commodity to the
           same destination or a different destination, the terms of this
           Provision will not apply if the vehicle, as presented, is acceptable
           for loading without cleaning, and if the vehicle is of an acceptable
           capacity to Dow. Furthermore, if cancellation is communicated to
           Carrier more than four hours prior to scheduled departure, this
           Provision does not apply.

6. DIVERSION OR RECONSIGNMENT

Shipments moving on rates named in this Contract may be diverted or reconsigned
in transit or at billed destination, subject to the following conditions:

o Denotes Change



                                                 Page: AI-3 Rev 1 Date 9/1/95
                                                 Dow:
                                                 CLEA:


     (a) The term "Diversion or Reconsignment" means change in the name of
         consignee and/or destination of the entire shipment, or any other
         instructions given to the Carrier requiring an addition to, or change
         in, billing necessary to effect delivery or involving an additional
         movement of equipment.

     (b) On shipments diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading within the
         corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was
         originally consigned, the applicable rate from point of origin to
         destination will apply, In addition to the charge provided in the
         S.A.C.

     (c) On a shipment diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading not
         within the corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment
         was originally consigned, the applicable rates (see Exception) shall be
         determined from mileage tables hereon based on the mileage from point
         of origin to final destination over the route of actual movement as per
         Dows' instruction computed in accordance with Provision No. 2, and will
         apply in addition to the charges provided in the S.A.C.

         Exception: When point of diversion or reconsignment is on the most 
                    direct highway route and is intermediate to the final 
                    destination, the rate to the final destination will apply.

     (d) On such movement, freight charges will be computed on the actual loaded
         movement miles.

     (e) The charge, (see S.A.C.) for each diversion or reconsignment, is in
         addition to all other applicable charges. This charge will be billed to
         company requesting diversion or reconsignment.

     (f) Time consumed in waiting for orders under this provision will be
         considered part of unloading time, and detention charges will be
         assessed as provided in Provision No 4 above, if time without charge
         has elapsed.

     (g) A request for diversion or reconsignment must be made or confirmed in
         writing by the shipper. (Preferably with an amended bill of lading or
         shipping notice being presented to the Carrier.)

                                                 CLEA:

7. HOSE

When hose is required or requested to effect either pickup or delivery, or both,
of a single shipment, then either a two, three, or four inch inside diameter
hose length(s) will be provided. All hoses will be provided without charge.

8. REJECTED SHIPMENTS

If, for any reason not ascribable to the Carrier or its personnel, a shipment is
rejected by the consignee at destination, notification to Dow shall be given in
writing, telephone, or telegraph, requesting disposition.

The charges to be applied on such rejected, returned shipments shall be in
accordance with the S.A.C. as applied to the outbound shipment rates as
published from the original point of origin to the original point of destination
on the date of the resumed shipment and shall be based on the actual weight of
the product returned. Time consumed waiting for orders under this provision will
be considered as part of unloading time, and detention charges will be assessed
in accordance with Provision No. 4.

9. SPOTTING NON-POOLED SEMI-TRAILERS FOR LINE HAUL MOVEMENTS OR STORAGE

   (a) Except as otherwise provided, when, for Dow's convenience, Carrier is
       requested or required to place and leave a single semitank on the
       premises of Dow, or any other practical site they may designate for the
       purpose of loading or unloading for a line haul movement a charge in
       accordance with the S.A.C. for each 24 hour period or fraction thereof
       will apply.

   (b) An allowance of one (1) hour without charge for spotting and one (1) hour
       without charge for pickup will be allowed (see Provision No. 4).

   (c) When, in connection with such spotting, it becomes necessary to move
       tractor(s) without semi-trailers, the charges in the S.A.C. will apply
       covering the movement of such tractor(s) for the miles travelled from and
       the miles travelled to return to the carriers terminal from which the
       tractor(s) was(were) dispatched.

   (d) When spotting is for the purpose of storage, the conditions and charges
       will be negotiated on a local basis and shown in Appendix II for that
       site location.

                                                 Dow:
                                                 CLEA:

       premises, however, Dow will be responsible for any damage incurred to
       trailers during such movement.

   (f) Dow will be liable for tank cleaning charge as provided in the S.A.C., if
       applicable, when trailer is released from spotting.

10. SUNDAY AND HOLIDAY SHIPMENTS

If Carrier is required by Dow to load, pick-up, unload, or actually deliver on a
Sunday or Holiday, the charge in the SAC will apply on a per unit basis.

The intent is to compensate Carrier for "call-out" of local drivers to perform
this work. The charge does not apply if the shipment is enroute over a Sunday or
Holiday, but is loaded or unloaded (picked up or delivered) on any other day.

The term "holiday" is hereby defined to include the following days or the day on
which they are celebrated:


New Year's Day                Independence Day               Thanksgiving Day
Good Friday                   Labor Day                      Christmas Day
Memorial Day

Carrier reserves the right to perform service on Sundays and Holidays (not
requested but consented to, by shipper upon Carrier's request) for operating
reasons, in which case extra charges herein do not apply.

11. STOP-OFF IN TRANSIT TO COMPLETE LOADING AND/OR FOR PARTIAL DELIVERY

    (a) Except as otherwise provided, shipments may be stopped in transit to
        complete loading and/or partial delivery.

    (b) A shipment loaded at two or more places within the corporate limits of a
        single point of origin and/or delivered to two or more places within the
        corporate limits of a single destination, shall be considered as being
        stopped in transit to complete loading and/or partial delivery under the
        conditions of this provision.

    (c) A shipment stopped in transit for partial delivery may be delivered to
        two or more consignees within the corporate limits of a single
        destination or may be delivered to two or more consignees at two or more
        destinations.



                                                 Page: AI-6 Rev 1 Date 9/1/95
                                                 Dow:
                                                 CLEA:


    (d) To determine the mileage on shipments loaded at two or more places
        within the corporate limits of a single point of origin and/or delivered
        to two or more places within the corporate limits of a single
        destination, except as otherwise provided, see paragraph (f) of this
        provision.

    (e) To determine the mileage on shipments loaded at two or more places which
        are not all within the corporate limits of a single point and/or
        delivered to two or more places which are not all within the corporate
        limits of a single destination, except as otherwise provided, see
        paragraph (f) of this provision.

    (f) To determine the applicable mileages for shipments made in paragraphs
        (d) and (e) of this provision, the Rand McNally MILEMAKER will apply and
        shall start at the point of loading and include the miles travelled by
        the vehicle via all stop-in-transit points to final destination or to
        the point at which the vehicle discharges the last portion of its cargo.
        Mileages so computed shall be used to determine the applicable rate for
        the entire shipment and shall apply on the number of gallons or pounds
        of commodity loaded at origin, subject to the minimums provided herein.

    (g) In addition to all other lawful charges, an additional stop off charge,
        as stated in the S.A.C., will apply. Such charge shall not be assessed
        at the origin or final destination.

    (h) Aggregate total loading or unloading times will be charged for in
        accordance with Provision No. 4.

12. WEIGHING VEHICLES

Unless otherwise provided, freight charges shall, at Dow's option, be based on 
one of the following methods of weight determination:

    (a) The description of the commodity and the weight of the shipment shall be
        shown by Dow on the shipping order or bill of lading.

    (b) Dow shall show on shipping order or bill of lading the specific gravity
        at temperature loaded.

    (c) Dow shall show on shipping order or bill of lading the weight per gallon
        at temperature loaded.

                                                  CLEA:


     (d)  The party which requests independent weighing of a shipment should pay
          weighing charge and all ensuing charges related to time and distance.

     In the absence of election of one of the foregoing methods, where a vehicle
     is weighed on public scale at the request of Dow or consignee, a charge
     (see the S.A.C.) shall be assessed for each weighing in addition to all
     other lawful charges.

     Time consumed in weighing vehicle, before or after loading, or both, at the
     point of shipment, shall be considered as part of time for loading and
     subject to charges set forth in Provision No. 4.

     Time consumed in weighing vehicle, before or after unloading, or both, at
     the point of destination, shall be considered as time for unloading and
     subject to charges and other provisions as set for in Provision No. 4.

     Carrier shall provide Dow and/or consignee with a calibration chart for the
     trailer utilized.

13.  ACCESSORIAL AND EMERGENCY SERVICES

     Accessorial and emergency service will be provided, if practicable, and
     such service charges shall be in accordance with the S.A.C.

     On Sundays and Holidays, time shall begin when Carrier's equipment leaves
     Carrier's terminal and continue until equipment is returned to the
     Carrier's terminal from which dispatched. Weekdays time will be computed
     Dow gate to gate. Any delay directly attributable to the Carrier will be
     subtracted from the total time. Time of equipment departure and arrival at
     the terminal will be indicated on the bill of lading or freight bill for
     each shipment.

13A. ASSISTANCE FROM OR EVACUATION OF POWER VEHICLE BY SECOND
     DRIVER-LOADING/UNLOADING

     When a two-person sleeper team is required to handle a shipment and Dow or
     the consignee requires the second person to assist in loading and/or
     unloading or to evacuate the power vehicle a charge (see the S.A.C.) will
     apply. Time to be computed from the time the Carrier's equipment arrives at
     the loading or unloading gate until the time the Carrier's equipment
     departs from the loading or unloading gate.





                                                  Page: AI-8 Rev 1 Date: 9/1/95
                                                  Dow:
                                                  CLEA:


     Charges set forth in the S.A.C. will be in addition to all other applicable
     charges and shall be paid by the party requesting this service.

14.  TANK CLEANING AND HEEL DISPOSAL

     When Carrier is requested to furnish a trailer for the transportation of
     products, which, because of its inherent nature requires cleaning and waste
     disposal before the trailer can be returned to service, the charges set
     forth in the S.A.C. will apply on the initial loading. These charges are in
     addition to all other lawful charges assessed against the shipment.

     Charges shall not be made on subsequent loading of the same trailer so long
     as said trailer remains continuously in the exclusive use of the same
     consignor, unless such consignor requests that the trailer be cleaned after
     delivery of any of these loadings, in which case the applicable additional
     charges shall be applied on the next loading of these products following
     such requested cleaning.

     When two or more products are shipped at one time in a compartmented
     trailer, the applicable cleaning charge will be the highest applicable
     charge on any product in the trailer.

15.  SPECIAL EQUIPMENT AND SERVICE

     When special equipment as listed below is required or requested by the
     consignor or consignee prior to movement of the shipment, such equipment,
     if available, will be furnished by Carrier subject to charges in the S.A.C.
     Air Blowers, Air Compressors, Air Dryers, Nozzles, and Pumps will be
     provided, as requested, without charge.

     (a) Compartmented Trailers.

     (b)  Heating-in-transit Service: Except as otherwise provided, Carrier
          will, upon request of consignor or consignee, furnish, if available, a
          trailer and/or tractor equipped with a controlled heating-in-transit
          system subject to the charges in the S.A.C.

     (c)  Heating Service: When, upon request, of consignor or consignee, a
          shipment is stopped in transit for the purpose of heating the lading
          by steam or any other means, the charges in the S.A.C. will apply.





                                                  Page: AI-9 Rev 1 Date: 9/1/95
                                                  Dow:
                                                  CLEA:


     Carrier will apply heat for the length of time prescribed by the consignor
     or consignee. Heating time will be deemed to start at the time heat is
     applied to the lading and shall end when the heat is removed.

     It shall be the responsibility of the consignor or consignee to make
     arrangements for the use of steam and other heating facilities at its own
     expense, although Carrier will, if requested, attempt to locate such
     facilities and make arrangements for their use provided, however, that the
     consignor or consignee shall agree to be responsible for any expense
     incurred for the use of such facilities.

     Time consumed by heating at consignor's site of pick up and/or consignee's
     site of delivery shall be considered as loading and/or unloading time and
     shall be charged for as provided in Provision No. 4.

     All charges set forth in this provision shall be in addition to all other
     lawful charges assessed against the shipment.

16.  OVERNIGHT AND WEEKEND LAYOVER

          8:00 a.m. the following morning and in lieu thereof, the charges in
          the S.A.C. for Single Driver or Sleeper Team for each overnight
          layover will apply.

          If the vehicle (tractor and/or trailer) is further detained, charges
          outlined above or in paragraph (b) below, as applicable, will be the
          same as if the vehicle had just arrived, except that no time without
          charge as provided for in the terms of Provision No. 4 will apply.





                                                 Page: AI-10 Rev 1 Date: 9/1/95

          until 8:00 a.m. Monday at such point, or in the vicinity thereof, and
          the driver is not required to remain on duty, the terms of Provision
          No. 4 will not apply from 5:00 p.m. on Friday, or the time the driver
          was released if later than 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 a.m. Monday morning
          and, in lieu thereof, the charges in the S.A.C. for Single Driver or
          Sleeper Team for such weekend layover will apply. 

          If the vehicle (tractor and/or trailer) is further detained, charges
          outlined in paragraph (a) will apply the same as if the vehicle had
          just arrived, except that time without charge as provided for in
          Provision No. 4 will apply.

When Carrier's vehicle arrives at point of loading, unloading, stop-off and/or
final destination at a time other than between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. and, when

     combustible are exempt from this policy.

20.  CURRENCY

     Freight rates and/or charges applicable under the terms or Provisions of
     this Contract shall be stated and payable in U.S. funds only.

21.  ALTERNATION OF RATES

     In Appendix II, where there is a conflict between tabular rates (mileage
     based) and point-to-point commodity rates, the rate that produces the
     lowest line haul transportation charge will apply.

     When shipments to, from, and between the United States and Canada are
     tendered and when there is a Dow Canada and a Dow U.S.A. contract, then the
     lowest contract freight rate in either contract will apply on either a
     prepaid or collect basis and the payment will be in U.S. funds only.

22.  ARBITRATION

     If any disputes or differences in interpretation arise other than provided
     under Provisions 1 through 21 above, such disputes will be resolved by
     negotiations between the two parties or by a mutually agreed upon
     arbitrator.

23.  SCHEDULE OF MINIMUM CHARGES

     Schedule of Minimum Charges is based a one-way billed miles scale and flat
     minimum charges. See Item 23 of the SAC for scale and flat charges.

Rates as published in the Dow/Chemical Leaman contract are subject to the
following rules and provisions:

1. Dow Chemical agrees to a capital recovery provision effective October 14,
1996 through December 31, 2000. Under this provision, Chemical Leaman Tank
Lines, Inc. shall be entitled to recover a portion of its capital outlay under
the conditions outlined in item 2, below. Chemical Leaman's asset valuation
(capital outlay) is Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000) for the construction
and purchase of new MC-307 stainless steel trailers to be provided for food
grade and solvents service. The amount of capital recovery to which Chemical
Leaman shall be entitled shall be Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000) less
Two Percent (2.0%) for each month (or fraction thereof) of the contract term
that has expired from the date Dow Chemical has been notified, in writing, that
Chemical Leaman wishes to invoke this capital recovery provision. Should
Chemical Leaman invoke this capital recovery provision under the specified
conditions in item 2 below, Chemical Leaman shall retain full ownership of all
applicable assets covered in this provision. Should Chemical Leaman decide to
terminate the contract, the capital recovery provision shall not be invoked.

2. Chemical Leaman reserves the right to invoke item 1 provisions except under
the following conditions: service performance as outlined in item 5; competitive
pricing as outlined in item 6; and under certain business conditions whereby Dow
Chemical documents business losses due to customer or product transitions.

3. Should Chemical Leaman be required to place additional new trailers into
service to meet Dow Chemical's shipment requirements, Chemical Leaman shall be
entitled to capital recovery. The asset valuation for the additional new
trailers (capital outlay) shall be the cost for the construction and purchase of
the new trailers. The amount of capital recovery to which Chemical Leaman shall
be entitled shall be the result of multiplying the capital outlay amount by the
result of dividing the unexpired number of months (or fractions thereof)
remaining through December 31, 2000 by the total number of months (or fractions
thereof) for the period between the date of the additional capital outlay and
December 31, 2000.

4. Dow Chemical commits One Hundred Percent (100%) of the Dow controlled and
routed outbound freight, stated to be approximately $2,500,000 annual to be
routed via Chemical Leaman Tank Lines or their broker subsidiary, Capacity
Management Systems. Should Dow Chemical change the legal terms of sale for
transactions originating at Bayonne which results in a decline of business
routed via Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Chemical Leaman shall reserve the right
to invoke item 1.

                                     BAYONNE


5. Chemical Leaman will provide error free service levels at a minimum of Ninety
Five Percent (95%) total carrier error free. Should the error free performance
level fall below Ninety Five Percent (95%) for any consecutive 6-month calendar
period, Dow Chemical reserves the right to waive the capital recovery provision
as stated in item 1 of the Bayonne Rules Tariff. Total carrier error free
performance shall be defined as stated in the Uniform Bulk Motor Carrier
Contract, effective April 1, 1995 plus appendices I through III effective May 1,
1995. If Chemical Leaman retains the business at less that 95% error free
performance, and subsequently the error free performance improves to meet or
exceed the 95% level for a consecutive 6-month calendar period, the capital
recovery provision in item 1 shall be reinstated.

6. Dow Chemical reserves the right to receive and review competitive pricing bid
proposals for single source bulk carrier operations at their Bayonne, NJ
terminal operation. Dow Chemical agrees to consider no fewer than Three (3)
non-Chemical Leaman carrier pricing bids simultaneously, which each reduce
existing Chemical Leaman contract pricing by Five Percent (5%) or greater.

7. Chemical Leaman-Tank Lines, Inc. reserves the right of first refusal to
compare existing contract pricing to the Three (3) competitive bids each
generating a reduction of Five Percent (5%) or greater. Dow Chemical agrees to
provide competitive operating parameters in addition to proposed competitive
bids.

8. Chemical Leaman reserves the right to re-negotiate current transportation
price levels should any changes to the operating parameters, as outlined in
Section I, significantly alter costs such as changes in equipment or driver
levels, trailer types, on-site personnel staffing, loading hours, unloading
hours, equipment accessorial requirements, tank cleaning requirements or Dow
terminal site location. Chemical Leaman shall provide written documentation
supporting increased operating costs due to changes in the operating parameters
as outlined above and in Section I.

9. Chemical Leaman reserves the right to increase transportation price levels up
to Five Percent (5%) under conditions outlined in item 8. Should Chemical Leaman
require an increase greater than 5%, Dow Chemical reserves the right to re-bid
the Bayonne, NJ business. Should Dow Chemical receive Three (3) or more
competitive bids at least five percent (5%) below Chemical Leaman proposed
pricing, Chemical Leaman agrees to revoke the take or pay provisions as outlined
in item 1. Should Dow Chemical not receive Three (3) or more competitive bids at
least Five Percent (5%) below Chemical Leaman proposed pricing, Chemical Leaman
shall retain the business at Bayonne, NJ.

                   MEASUREMENT PROGRAM FOR QUALITY PERFORMANCE
                   -------------------------------------------

Carrier and Shipper mutually agree to review Carrier's service performance at
the end of each calendar quarter of the term of this Agreement. For the purpose
of this performance incentive, a service failure is defined as any
carrier-related non-conformance reported via the Dow North America Quarterly
Carrier Performance Summary shown below.

Carrier's service performance shall be calculated as the total number of Carrier
controllable failures in the immediately preceding quarter divided by the total
number of carrier loads in that quarter, multiplied by 100 to convert to a
percentage. This result will then be subtracted from 100 to arrive at the
Carrier's quarterly performance rating.

Incentives and penalties will be calculated as a percentage of the total
linehaul charges for the quarter for which the quarterly performance rating is
calculated. Incentives and penalties will be paid within forty-five (45) days of
the end of said quarter. Incentives and penalties will be calculated using the
scale shown below. Maximum incentive or penalty shall be $25,000 per quarter.

            Performance Level                Incentive/(Penalty
            -----------------                ------------------
            greater than 98.5%                       1%
                  95-98%                             0%
              less than 95%                         (1%)

o  To be eligible for the performance award pay-out, carrier safety performance
   must be 0.25 incidents/1,000 shipments or less.

(a)  The term "Diversion or Reconsignment" means a change in the name of
     consignee and/or destination of the entire shipment, or any other
     instructions given to the Carrier requiring an addition to, or change in,
     billing necessary to effect delivery or involving an additional movement of
     equipment.

(b)  On shipments diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading within the
     corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was originally
     consigned, the applicable rate from point of origin to destination will
     apply, in addition to the charge provided in the S.A.C.

(c)  On a shipment diverted or reconsigned to a place of unloading not within
     the corporate limits of the municipality to which the shipment was
     originally consigned, the applicable rates (see Exception) shall be
     determined from mileage tables herein based on the mileage from point of
     origin to final destination over the route of actual movement as per Dows'
     instruction computed in accordance with Provision No. 2, and will apply in
     addition to the charges provided in the S.A.C.

     Exception: When point of diversion or reconsignment is on the most direct
                highway route and is intermediate to the final destination, the
                rate to the final destination will apply.

(d)  On such movements, freight charges will be computed on the actual loaded
     movement miles.

(e)  The charge, (see S.A.C.) for each diversion or reconsignment, is in
     addition to all other applicable charges. This charge will be billed to
     company requesting diversion or reconsignment.

     part of unloading time, and detention charges will be assessed as provided
     in Provision No. 4 above, if time without charge has elapsed.

(g)  A request for diversion or reconsignment must be made or confirmed in
     writing by the shipper. (Preferably with an amended bill of lading or
     shipping notice being presented to the Carrier.)

of a single shipment, then either a two, three, or four inch inside diameter
hose length(s) will be provided. All hoses will be provided without charge.

8. REJECTED SHIPMENTS

If, for any reason not ascribable to the Carrier or its personnel, a shipment is
rejected by the consignee at destination, notification to Dow shall be given in

The charges to be applied on such rejected, returned shipments shall be in
accordance with the S.A.C. as applied to the outbound shipment rates as
published from the original point of origin to the original point of destination
on the date of the returned shipment and shall be based on the actual weight of
the product returned. Time consumed waiting for orders under this provision will
be considered as part of unloading time, and detention charges will be assessed
in accordance with Provision No. 4.

9. SPOTTING NON-POOLED SEMI-TRAILERS FOR LINE HAUL MOVEMENTS OR STORAGE

(a)  Except as otherwise provided, when, for Dow's convenience, Carrier is
     requested or required to place and leave a single semi-tank trailer on the

10. SUNDAY AND HOLIDAY SHIPMENTS

If Carrier is required by Dow to load, pick-up, unload, or actually deliver on a
Sunday or Holiday, the charge in the SAC will apply on a per unit basis.

The intent is to compensate Carrier for "call-out" of local drivers to perform
this work. The charge does not apply if the shipment is enroute over a Sunday or
Holiday, but is loaded or unloaded (picked up or delivered) on any other day.

The term "holiday" is hereby defined to include the following days or the day on
which they are celebrated:

New Year's Day           Independence Day    Thanksgiving Day

     single point of origin and/or delivered to two or more places within the
     corporate limits of a single destination, shall be considered as being
     stopped in transit to complete loading and/or partial delivery under the
     conditions of this provision.

     Provision.

(f)  To determine the applicable mileages for shipments made in paragraphs (d)
     and (e) of this provision, the Rand McNally MILEMAKER will apply and shall
     start at the point of loading and include the miles travelled by the
     vehicle via all stop-in-transit points to final destination or to the point
     at which the vehicle discharges the last portion of its cargo. Mileages so
     computed shall be used to determine the applicable rate for the entire
     shipment and shall apply on the number of gallons or pounds of commodity
     loaded at origin, subject to the minimums provided herein.

(g)  In addition to all other lawful charges, an additional stop-off charge, as
     stated in the S.A.C., will apply. Such charge shall not be assessed at the
     origin or final destination.

(h)  Aggregate total loading or unloading times will be charged for in
     accordance with Provision No. 4.

disposal before the trailer can be returned to service, the charges set forth in
the S.A.C. will apply on the initial loading. These charges are in addition to
all other lawful charges assessed against the shipment.

Charges shall not be made on subsequent loading of the same trailer so long as
said trailer remains continuously in the exclusive use of the same consignor,
unless such consignor requests that the trailer be cleaned after delivery of any
of these loadings, in which case the applicable additional charges shall be
applied on the next loading of these products following such requested cleaning.

When two or more products are shipped at one time in a compartmented trailer,
the applicable cleaning charge will be the highest applicable charge on any

consignee shall agree to be responsible for any expense incurred for the use of
such facilities.

Time consumed by heating at consignor's site of pick up and/or consignee's site
of delivery shall be considered as loading and/or unloading time and shall be
charged for as provided in Provision No. 4.

charges assessed against the shipment.

16. OVERNIGHT AND WEEKEND LAYOVER

Normal Operating Losses

Should Terminal's normal operating losses exceed the following percentage for
said product, Terminal shall be responsible for such losses as stated in Article
(16) of the basic agreement.

Plastic Granules: 0.5%

The percent product loss for a specific product shall be determined by adding
the beginning inventory to all receipts during the contract year for said
product, subtracting from that total, the sum of all shipments during the
contract year and the ending inventory and dividing the remainder by the sum of
the beginning inventory, plus receipts. Receipts and shipments shall be
determined as provided for in Article (6).

Other Provisions

1.   The transfer charge above includes an amount for certain facility upgrading
     and operational improvements. As consideration for such upgrading and
     improvements, Dow agrees that if it does not ship 30,000,000 pounds from
     the terminal during each year of the contract during the initial term (2
     years), Dow shall pay Terminal $0.05/cwt for the difference between
     30,000,000 pounds and the actual pounds shipped from Terminal's facility
     during said year.

2.   Terminal shall submit invoices for services rendered under this Agreement
     the first part of each month for services performed during the previous
     month. One invoice for transfer charges, one for storage and one for
     miscellaneous charges, using reference numbers provided by Dow, if any.
     Said invoices shall be payable by Dow within ten (10) days after receipt.

3.   The trucking services and charges are covered under the Motor Carrier
     National Contract between Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Inc. and The Dow
     Chemical Company.

4.   This Agreement, upon its effective data, cancels and supersedes the Service
     Agreement dated March 6, 1986, between Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Inc. and
     The Dow Chemical Company which currently covers terminaling services at the
     North Haven, CT site.
