Rail Transportation Management:
Raven Network is Only a Venue. Vendor’s website  www.ravenlogistics.com only acts as a venue for Members to manage rail shipments and Vendor is not involved in the actual transactions between Members. As a result, Vendor has no control over the quality, safety, or legality of the goods or services purchased and sold among Members. Because Vendor does not and cannot control the action of others, if Customer has a dispute with another Member, Customer hereby releases Vendor (and its agents, employees, and partners) from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, disclosed, and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in the use or operation of the Raven Network is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship between the Members and Vendor.

Disclaimers. Customer agrees that Vendor’s primary obligation under this Agreement is the coordination of Customer transportation requirements and the carriers that transport Customer freight as set forth herein. Customer further agrees that circumstances like weather and variations in carrier capacity may, from time to time, interfere with Vendor’s ability to provide Customer with timely, cost effective, and efficient transportation and related services for the movement of Customer freight, and that price is only one of the criteria used in selecting a carrier or mode of transportation. Under no circumstances will Vendor be considered a guarantor of any price or service level of any carrier or mode of transportation. Customer releases and indemnifies Vendor from and against any third-party damages, losses, liabilities, settlements, and expenses arising out of or related to the following matters:
(a) Third Party Personal Injury, Property Damage or Other Claims. Vendor is not liable to Customer for any loss, cost, expense, claim, demand, liability, suit, or action arising out of or due to the negligence, dishonesty or bad faith of any carrier or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, that provides the transportation and related services for the movement of Customer freight.
(b) Third Party Cargo Claims. Carriers providing the transportation and related services for the movement of Customer freight have custody and control of Customer freight on a daily basis. Customer’s contracts with the carriers will address each carrier’s liability as a common carrier for loss, damage, or destruction of Customer freight while under a carrier’s care, custody, or control. Customer releases, indemnifies, and holds harmless Vendor from any and all liability for cargo loss, damage or destruction claims arising out of the movement of Customer freight.
