Any load of tomatoes which is so offered for inspection and delivery that is rendered unsuitable for processing purposes as a direct result of unwarranted delay in inspection, willfully or negligently caused or permitted by the processor, shall be paid for by the processor at the full price that is agreed upon for tomatoes suitable for processing purposes and on the basis that the tomatoes were of the grade, quality, and condition which is stipulated in the contract.

If no price is stipulated in the contract, payment shall be made by the processor to the producer on the basis of the then prevailing market price for tomatoes of the grade, quality, and condition which is specified in the contract.
