To Whom It May Concern: Attached is a Power of Attorney (POA) which is required by OIA Global Logistics to transact Customs business or to execute export shipments on your behalf. Please use the following guidelines in determining the proper authority to sign this document. Corporations: A Power of Attorney from a corporation must be signed by someone duly authorized to do so. (19CFR 141.38) This is usually, but not necessarily, a corporate officer, President, vice-president, treasurer, or secretary. Please indicate the person s capacity (title) on the Power of Attorney. If the POA is signed by other than a corporate officer, President, vice-president, treasurer, or secretary, the corporate certification on page 2 must be completed. POA s for corporations are valid until revoked unless a date is specified otherwise. Partnerships: A Power of Attorney from a partnership must state the names of all members of the partnership. One member of the partnership may execute the POA. (19CFR 141.39(a)) Limited Partnerships a POA from limited partnerships (LLP) must state the names of the general partners who have authority to bind the firm. A copy of the partnership agreement must accompany the POA. One member of the partnership may execute the POA. (19CFR 141.39(b)) POA s for partnerships and LLP s are valid for two years. Sole Propietorship: A Power of Attorney for a sole proprietorship must be signed the owner. Limited Liability Company: A limited liability company (LLC) can be designated as either a corporation, partnership or sole proprietor. Please advise us if you have completed IRS Form 8832, and how the LLC has been designated. If Form 8832 has not been completed, the default designation will apply. If the LLC has only one owner, it will automatically be treated as if it were a sole proprietorship, unless an election is made to be treated as a corporation. If the LLC has two or more owners, it will automatically be considered to be a partnership, unless an election is made to be treated as a corporation. If the LLC does not elect its classification, a default classification of partnership (multi-member LLC) or disregarded entity (taxed as if it were a sole proprietorship) will apply. If the LLC has been designated as a corporation, please follow the instructions for Corporation above. If the LLC has been designated as a Partnership (or in absence of filing Form 8832, defaults as a partnership), please follow the instructions for Partnership above. If the LLC has been designated as a Sole Proprietor (or in absence of filing Form 8832, defaults as a Sole Proprietor), then the POA must be signed by the owner. Verification of Employer Identification Number (EIN) or Social Security Number (SSN) In accordance with U.S. Customs and Border Protection Administrative Notice 05-0441 Dated April 20, 2005, Customs Brokers are required to validate the POA grantor s EIN or SSN. For Corporations, Partnerships, or Sole Proprietors, the only documentation that is acceptable for proof of a valid EIN is documentation from the IRS (on IRS letterhead or an IRS form) to the named party that indicates or references the EIN. Examples are: Your Employer Identification Number (EIN) notification from the IRS, or a recent IRS Form 8109 (Federal Tax Deposit Coupon) with a preprinted label by the IRS indicating name/address and EIN of the taxpayer If you have misplaced your EIN notification from the IRS, please follow the instructions at: http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=155444,00.html, or by calling 1-800-829-0115. For Individuals, please provide a copy of your social security card, AND your Driver s License We are also enclosing information on the Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) minimum security criteria for importers. Please contact your local OIA Global Logistics office if you are interested in becoming a part of this security initiative. More information can be found at http://cbp.gov/xp/cgov/trade/cargo_security/ctpat/. Thank you for your assistance in this matter. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Terms and Conditions of Service

C-TPAT Importer Security Criteria 03/25/2005 C-TPAT Security Criteria Importers Importers must conduct a comprehensive assessment of their international supply chains based upon the following C-TPAT security criteria. Where an importer outsources or contracts elements of their supply chain, such as a foreign facility, conveyance, domestic warehouse, or other elements, the importer must work with these business partners to ensure that pertinent security measures are in place and adhered to throughout their supply chain. The supply chain for C-TPAT purposes is defined from point of origin (manufacturer/supplier/vendor) through to point of distribution and recognizes the diverse business models C-TPAT members employ. C-TPAT recognizes the complexity of international supply chains and endorses the application and implementation of security measures based upon risk analysis. Therefore, the program allows for flexibility and the customization of security plans based on the member s business model. Appropriate security measures, as listed throughout this document, must be implemented and maintained throughout the importer s supply chains - based on risk. Business Partner Requirement Importers must have written and verifiable processes for the selection of business partners including manufacturers, product suppliers and vendors. Security procedures For those business partners eligible for C-TPAT certification (carriers, ports, terminals, brokers, consolidators, etc.) the importer must have documentation (e.g., C-TPAT certificate, SVI number, etc.) indicating whether these business partners are or are not C-TPAT certified. For those business partners not eligible for C-TPAT certification, importers must require their business partners to demonstrate that they are meeting C- TPAT security criteria via written/electronic confirmation (e.g., contractual obligations; via a letter from a senior business partner officer attesting to compliance; a written statement from the business partner demonstrating their compliance with C-TPAT security criteria or an equivalent WCO accredited security program administered by a foreign customs authority; or, by providing a completed importer security questionnaire).based upon a documented risk assessment process, non-c-tpat eligible business partners must be subject to verification of compliance with C-TPAT security criteria by the importer. Point of Origin Importers must ensure business partners develop security processes and procedures consistent with the C-TPAT security criteria to enhance the integrity of the shipment at point of origin. Periodic reviews of business partners processes and facilities should be conducted based on risk, and should maintain the security standards required by the importer. Participation / Certification in Foreign Customs Administrations Supply Chain Security Programs Current or prospective business partners who have obtained a certification in a supply chain security program being administered by foreign Customs Administration should be required to indicate their status of participation to the importer. Other Internal criteria for selection Internal requirements, such as financial soundness, capability of meeting contractual security requirements, and the ability to identify and correct security deficiencies as needed, should be addressed by the importer. Internal requirements should be assessed against a risk-based process as determined by an internal management team. Container Security Container integrity must be maintained to protect against the introduction of unauthorized material and/or persons. At point of stuffing, procedures must be in place to properly seal and maintain the integrity of the shipping containers.
