Auction terms of sale Any participant in an auction held by Art For eternity LLC (AFE), including any prospective bidder, actual bidder, or purchaser (a Participant), whether by way of a Live Internet platform such as Live Auctioneers, in person, by phone, or via absentee bid, is expressly subject to acceptance of these Terms of Sale. A Participant's participation in any Auction held by AFE therefore constitutes binding acceptance of these Terms of Sale. Failure to read these terms does not release the Participant from its obligations pursuant to the Terms of Sale set forth herein, as follows. 1. The authenticity of the Authorship (as defined below) of property listed in the catalogue is guaranteed solely to the extent set forth in this Section 1, and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 1, as follows: (a) All property is sold "AS IS" and neither AFE nor any of its consignors makes any warranties, representations, or assumptions of liability, expressed or implied, with respect to the property, including without limitation, as to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, the correctness of any description in the catalog, condition report, advertisement, bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, or elsewhere, of the of the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, exhibitions, literature or historical relevance of any property and no statement anywhere, whether oral or written, whether made in the catalog, condition report, advertisement, bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, or elsewhere, shall be deemed such a guarantee, warranty, representation or assumption of liability. We and the consignor make no representations, warranties, or assumptions of liability, express or implied, as to whether the purchaser acquires any copyrights, including but not limited to, any reproduction rights in any property. Any condition statement is given as a courtesy to a client, is solely an opinion and shall not be treated as a statement of fact. We and the consignor are not responsible for errors and omissions in the catalogue, glossary, advertisement or any other supplemental material. ?AS IS? goods are often of some age. (b) AFE guarantees that the authorship, period, or culture of origin (collectively, ?Authorship?) as set forth in BOLD TYPE in the title of a given lot in the catalogue AFE makes no guarantees or warranties whatsoever, express or implied, with respect to any material in the catalogue other than that appear in BOLD TYPE in the title of a given lot. (c) The limited guarantee set forth in Section 1(b), above, is further limited, and does not apply, if: (i) the Authorship was in accordance with the opinion(s) of generally accepted scholar(s) and expert(s) as of the date of the sale, or the catalog indicated that there was a conflict of such opinions; or (ii) the only method of establishing that the Authorship was not as stated in BOLD TYPE of the title of a given lot in the catalog at the date of the sale would have been by means or processes not then generally available or accepted, unreasonably expensive or impractical to use; or likely (in AFE?s reasonable opinion) to have caused damage to the lot or likely to have caused loss of value to the lot; or (iii) there has been no material loss in value of the lot from its value had it been in accordance with the Authorship as stated in BOLD TYPE of the titled of a given lot at the date of the sale. (d) Any lot for which the Authorship is inaccurately set forth in the BOLD TYPE of the title of the catalog at the date of sale may be returned within ten days. All returned lots must be adequately insured against loss or damage and must be received by AFE in the same condition as when shipped to the purchaser. Any dispute as to authenticity must be made by the original purchaser of record in possession of the lot, in writing, within three months of the sale date. AFE may require the original purchaser or record to obtain, at its own expense, the reports of two independent and recognized experts in the field, mutually acceptable to AFE and the original purchase of record. AFE shall not be bound by any reports produced by the original purchaser of record, and reserves the right to seek additional expert advice at its own expense. After three months from the sale date, all sales will be considered final. All lots for which the Authorship is accurately set forth are not returnable. (e) AFE strongly recommends viewing the items in person as opinions regarding condition, size, repair and restoration vary considerably from person to person. Private viewings can be arranged during weekdays to accommodate bidders. 2. AFE reserves the right to withdraw any property before sale and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. 3. AFE reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. Subject to the fulfillment of all the terms and conditions set forth herein, the contract between the consignor and the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall conclude upon the fall of the auctioneers "hammer." 4. All lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum hammer price at which a lot will be sold. No reserve will exceed the low presale estimate stated in the catalog, or as amended by oral or posted notices. We may implement such reserve by opening the bidding on behalf of the consignor and may bid up to the amount of the reserve, by placing successive or consecutive bids for a lot, or bids in response to other bidders. In instances where we have an interest in the lot other than our commission, we may bid up to the reserve to protect such interest. In addition, if the auctioneer determines that any opening bid is below the reserve of the article offered, the auctioneer may reject the same and withdraw the article from sale, and if, having acknowledged an opening bid, he determines that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he may reject the advance. 5. In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event of doubt on our part as to the validity of any bid, the auctioneer will have the final and absolute discretion either to determine the successful bidder, to re-open the bidding, to re-offer and resell the item in dispute, or to cancel the sale. The auctioneer will be the final judge as to which bidder is the highest bidder. If any dispute arises after the sale, AFE s sales record is conclusive. Although in our discretion AFE s will execute order bids or accept telephone bids as a convenience to clients who are not present at auctions, AFE is not responsible for any errors or omission in connection therewith. By participating in the sale, Participant represents and warrants that any bids it places, or placed on its behalf, are not the product of any collusive or other anti-competitive agreement and are otherwise consistent with federal and state antitrust law. 6. All items purchased on the Live Auctioneers platform must be paid for in full within 10 days from the date of sale, unless prior arrangements confirmed in writing have been made with AFE. Title in a purchased lot will not pass until AFE has received the full purchase price in cleared funds. Claim to unpaid items after 10 days from the date of the sale, absent prior arrangements confirmed in writing, are void, and AFE shall be entitled to re-auction or resell such items, or return them to the consignor, without further notice, and deposits (if any) shall be forfeited.

In any case, the purchaser will be liable for any deficiency, any and all costs, handling charges, late charges, expenses of both sales, our commissions on both sales at our regular rates, legal fees and expenses, collection fees and incidental damages.

In addition, a defaulting purchaser will be deemed to have granted and assigned to us a continuing security interest of first priority in any property or money of or owing to such purchaser in our possession, custody or control or in the possession, custody or control of any of our affiliated companies, in each case whether at the time of the auction, the default or if acquired at any time thereafter, and we may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due to us or to any affiliated company of ours.
