3. HOW A PRO RATA PRICE IS CALCULATED
The replacement tire price will be determined by multiply-
ing the percentage of the usable tread worn by the Retail-
er’s Selling Price (excluding all applicable taxes) at the time
of the adjustment or the Continental/General brand current
published Adjustment Base Price, whichever is lower. The
usable tread is the original tread down to the tread wear
indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining). The
Adjustment Base Price is intended to fairly represent a
Retailer’s Selling Price for the same or comparable tire.
