Failure to issue or sign a bill of lading shall not affect Carrier's liability. The bill of lading shall be evidence of receipt of the described property by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in good order and kind, quantity and condition except as noted on its face. To the extent that language contained in the bill of lading is in conflict or inconsistent with the terms and condition of this Contract, this Contract shall prevail. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that the bill of lading shall be for the sole purpose of, and function solely as, a receipt for the goods and shall not itself constitute a contract between Carrier and Broker or between Carrier and either the person tendering the goods to it or the person receiving the goods from Carrier. The bill of lading shall note that the shipment was transported by Carrier acting as a Carrier and that transportation for the shipment was arranged by ▇▇▇▇▇▇. The name of Broker or ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s customer shall be inserted in the blank for the shipper, and the name of the receiver shall be inserted in the blank for the consignee. The bill of lading is to be signed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ upon receipt of the shipment and will show the kind, quantity and condition of the commodities received and delivered by Carrier at the loading and unloading points. When ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has assembled multiple shipments into carload or truckload lots, the list of underlying shippers and consignees will be attached as an appendix to the bill of lading.
