(c) the receipt in commerce of any misbranded package of a hazardous substance and the delivery or proffered delivery thereof for pay or otherwise.
(d) the giving of a guarantee or undertaking referred to in Section 1604(b) (2) which guarantee or undertaking is false, except by a person who relied upon a guarantee or undertaking to the same effect signed by, and containing the name and address of, the person residing in the United States from whom he received in good faith the hazardous substance.
