APR57 has included in the catalogue estimates of the value of the lots to be sold. Such estimates have been developed using such experts, tests and other methods as APR57 has deemed in its sole discretion to be appropriate under the circumstances.

Unless specified in the catalogue, lots are subject to reserve price which is a confidential minimum amount the consignor is willing to accept. If the reserve price is not reached, the auctioneer may withdraw the lot from the sale. The auctioneer may open bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the consignor. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the consignor up to the amount of the reserve, either by placing successive or consecutive bids for a lot, or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Except for the limited warranty, contained in Section 2 "Limited Warranty" below, all lots are sold without any representations or warranties by APR57 or the consignor as to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, rarity, importance, the correctness of the catalogue or other description concerning the author, maker, origin, period, age, attribution, authenticity, provenance, weight or condition of any object.

It is specifically understood and agreed that the rescission of a sale and the refund of the original purchase price paid (the successful hammer price, plus the buyer's premium) is exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy which might otherwise be available as a matter of law, or in equity. APR57 and the consignor shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential damages incurred or claimed, including without limitation, loss of profits or interest.

In the event of any dispute between bidders, or any other issue with respect to the bidder, the auctioneer will have absolute discretion to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale or to reoffer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, APR57's sale record is conclusive. Bidding shall generally be increased in increments of 10%, however, the auctioneer may modify bidding increments from time to time at his/her absolute discretion. Any person bidding for the account of a third party is fully liable for any obligation assumed by such person relating to the sale. This liability includes, without limitation, the verification of the condition and valuation of lots and the payment for lots purchased. Although APR57, in its sole discretion, may execute absentee bids (written bids left with APR57 prior to sale) or accept telephone and internet bids as a convenience to clients who are not present at auction, APR57 is not responsible for failing to execute such bids or for any errors or omissions in connection therewith. 4. PAYMENT Title to the offered lot passes to the buyer upon the fall of the auctioneer's hammer and the announcement by the auctioneer that the lot has been sold, subject to compliance by the buyer with all other conditions of sale, including full payment as required hereunder. Buyer shall have no right to revoke acceptance of any lot after the fall of the hammer. The buyer thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility for the lot. The buyer shall immediately pay the full purchase price, buyer's commission and all applicable sales and other taxes in us dollars using a method of payment acceptable to auctioneer (including U.S. currency, bank wire, cashier checks, traveler's checks, echecks and money orders). Payment in foreign currencies is accepted at the rates of exchange of the day of sale as determined by APR57. Lots are delivered to the buyer only upon the full payment of all such amounts. Shipping and packing arrangements and charges are the sole responsibility of the buyer. After payment has been made in full, APR57 may, as a service to the buyer, arrange to have the purchased lots packed, insured and shipped at the buyer's request and expense. In this event, the buyer agrees that all said packaging, handling and shipping is at the sole risk of the buyer and that APR57 shall have no liability for any loss or damage to the purchased lots. APR57 may move the property to an off-site storage facility at the risk of the buyer. Buyer will be required to pay all applicable taxes, or fees levied by any authority (unless APR57 receives satisfactory proof of exemption, to be determined in APR57's sole discretion) including, without limitation, New York City sales tax of 8.875 %. If payment on a lot has not been collected by the twenty-fifth calendar day following the sale, the invoice remaining unpaid will be automatically charged to the bidder's credit card, and the bidder will be liable for an additional administration and handling charge equal to three and one half (3 1/2 %) percent of the total invoice. The bidder hereby acknowledges APR57's right to, and hereby authorizes APR57 to seek and recover any part of the unpaid invoice, including lost commissions and administrative and handling charges due to them, should bidder default by charging this amount to bidder's credit card in any manner authorized by law. It is expressly agreed that consignor shall only receive payment for a lot provided APR57 has received full payment from buyer, including such lost commissions and administrative and handling charges. 5. REMEDIES, APPLICABLE LAWS AND JURISDICTION To the extent that any other information or provision set forth in this catalogue is inconsistent with the conditions of sale, the conditions of sale shall be controlling.

In the event that such buyer pays a portion of the purchase price for any or all lots purchased, APR57 shall apply the payment received to such lot or lots as APR57, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. Any buyer who fails to comply with these conditions of sale will be deemed to have granted APR57 a security interest in, and APR57 may retain as collateral security for such buyerbuyer's obligation to it, any property in APR57's possession owned by such buyer. This security interest secures the principal amount of any such claim and also any outstanding or accruing interest, commissions, costs and all other fees as well as any and all damages suffered by APR57. APR57 is authorized to file and the buyer agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver all such other documents as APR57 reasonably deems necessary to create, perfect, and continue the security interest in the lots contemplated hereby. If the buyer fails to execute and deliver any documentation referred to herein, the buyer irrevocably appoints APR57 as his attorney in fact to execute and deliver that documentation for and in the buyer's name. APR57 shall have the benefit of all rights of a secured party under the New York Uniform Commercial Code. Payment will not be deemed to have been made in full until APR57 has collected good funds. In the event the buyer fails to pay any or all of the total purchase price for any lot and APR57 nonetheless elects to pay the consignor any portion of the sale proceeds, the buyer acknowledges that APR57 shall have all of the rights of the consignor to pursue the buyer for any amounts paid to the consignor, whether at law, in equity, or under these conditions of sale. The buyer's sole and exclusive remedy against APR57 and the consignor shall be the rescission of the sale and the refund of the original purchase price paid for the lot. This remedy shall be in lieu of any other remedy which might otherwise be available as a matter of law, and neither APR57 nor the consignor shall be liable, in whole or in part, for any special, incidental or consequential damages, including, without limitation, loss of profits.

The buyer hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The buyer agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the buyer and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction the buyer is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment; (ii) at APR57's sole discretion, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its commercial arbitration rules (such arbitration to be held in New York, NY before a single arbitrator by the AAA, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof); and (iii) the buyer hereby irrevocably waives the personal service of process upon them in any action or proceeding therein and consent that such process be served by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, directed to the buyer, such service shall be deemed made five (5) days after mailing.
