transportation costs, costs of premiums for product liability and shipping

combination or mixture is sold, ANTHRA shall so notify DFCI in writing and
ANTHRA and DFCI shall negotiate in good faith to establish a basis that is
equivalent to the Net Sales Value for AD 32 or AD 143 or a congener in
the form in which said combination or mixture is sold.
