relationship to McCLENDON shall be that of an independent contractor. CONTRACTOR
means any person defined as "CONTRACTOR" in 49 C.F.R. 1057, and any contractor,
agent, employee or driver of CONTRACTOR. McCLENDON is an "authorized carrier" as
defined in 49 C.F.R. 1057. The provisions of this Agreement are separable so
that the invalidity or unenforceability of one provision shall not affect the
others. McCLENDON's "exclusive possession, control, use and complete
responsibility for operation" of EQUIPMENT, shall be confined to the minimum
extent necessary to meet the requirements of applicable Federal and State laws,
and for no other purpose whatsoever. McCLENDON shall have no right to control
the manner, means or methods utilized by CONTRACTOR for the accomplishment of
the services to be rendered under this Agreement. It is understood that
CONTRACTOR shall direct the control of CONTRACTOR's operation in all respects
including, but not limited to, such matters as rejection or selection of loads,
days and time of the operation, routes of travel, empty miles, repair of
equipment, purchases of fuel and other supplies, and selection, discipline and
discharge of CONTRACTOR's drivers and other employees. This Agreement shall be
interpreted under the laws of the State of Alabama.
2. DUTIES OF CONTRACTOR - Contractor shall:
A. Operate the subject equipment in a lawful manner.
B. Provide that each driver furnished by CONTRACTOR will
initially meet and will thereafter continue to satisfy the
minimum driver qualification and compliance standards
established from time to time by (I) the U.S. Department of
Transportation or any successor agency (the "D.O.T."); (ii)
other regulatory bodies having jurisdiction over McCLENDON
operations; and (iii) by McCLENDON itself. Upon McCLENDON
request, CONTRACTOR will immediately substitute a qualified
driver for any person who fails to meet or maintain any such
minimum qualification and/or compliance standards or who
fails to comply with McCLENDON's operating policies and
