Prior to the Auction a. Authentication We strongly recommend that The Prospective Buyers conduct their own authentication for the items they are interested in bidding prior to the auction. We provide no guarantees to the Buyer including but without limitations whether the Lot is a counterfeit or the authentication of the Lot?s certificates (with the exception of the guarantee with regard to counterfeits as defined in Article 1 of the Transaction Agreement). b. Important Notice Attention, the Prospective Buyers: As far as possible, the descriptions of auction items will mention obvious defects of the items; however, they do not necessarily include all flaws, defects, or incomplete aspects. The Company does not that it is unable to guarantee that the Lots on auction are in good working condition and the descriptions in the catalogue must not be construed as implying such. The description of the auction items also do not imply that the items have not gone through readjustment or repair or allude anything about the current state or storage conditions of the items. Any omission in the catalogue description regarding the current condition or the appraisal of defects in the items by no means represent that those items are in good condition, function normally, or that there will be any free repair or replacement of parts. We strongly recommend the Prospective Buyers to personally view the items for which they plan to bid before the auction itself. If a prospective buyer is unable to view an item for whatever reason, then in our role as a service provider, we would be more than happy to offer our opinion of an item's special characteristics and current condition. However, the Company is not a professional restorer of Lots; therefore, any description in the catalogue or any statement provided by the Company is purely the Company's subjective opinion and not a statement of fact, not for representations or warranties. The Prospective Buyer completely understands and acknowledges that all of the items on auction are being sold in "as is" condition. The Company does not provide any representation or guarantee as to the condition of any of the items. c. Symbol Key The following key explains the symbol you may see inside this catalogue. ?Guaranteed Property The Seller of the Lots with this symbol next to the Lot number has been guaranteed a minimum price from one auction or a series of auctions. This guarantee may be provided by the Company, by a third party or jointly by the Company and a third party. A guarantee may be in the form of an irrevocable bid provided by a third party. Third parties providing or participating in a guarantee may benefit financially if a guaranteed Lot is sold successfully and may incur a loss if the sale is not successful. If third parties providing or participating in a guarantee is the successful bidder for the guaranteed Lot, they should be required to pay the full Buyer?s Premium. d. Catalogue Explanations Any statement of the author, history, date, year, size, material, ownership, authenticity, origin, condition of preservation or estimated selling price of any of the Lots and certificates thereof shown in the catalogue or the authentication opinion made by the Company, or any other verbal or written statements made separately shall be solely statements of opinions and shall not be deemed the basis for the statements of actual fact. The photographs shown in the catalogue shall serve as reference only and shall not be deemed as the basis for determining the color or tone of any Lots or disclosure of the defects of such item. The estimates of the auction price shall not be deemed the price at which such item will be successfully sold or the statement of the value of the item for other purposes. Many auction items fail to maintain their perfect condition because of time and other environmental factors. Some of the explanations in the catalogue or the authentication opinions will state defects and/or the repair background of the Lots. Such information is meant for reference only. Missing information in the statements does not mean the Lot has no defects or has not been repaired. Any statement of one particular defect does not mean there is no any other defect. e. Responsibility of the Buyer The Buyer is responsible for clarifying and satisfying himself about the condition of the items and any related matters stated in the catalogue descriptions and making his/her own judgment or estimation independently regarding the Lots. 3. In the Auction a. Sales Tax Payable by the Buyer The Buyer shall pay (value added) sales tax in the amount of 5% of the Hammer Price with respect to imported works of art collected by the Buyer in Taiwan pursuant to the laws of the R.O.C.

The Buyer shall notify The Company in writing within two business days following the auction day if he desires to collect the items auctioned outside the R.O.C. b. Estimates The prices in US dollars or other currencies reproduced in the auction and this catalogue are for reference only.

The Bidder is the Buyer Unless a written agreement has been made upon registration that the bidder will be the agent who acts on behalf of a third person and such third person is accepted by the Company, the bidder will be deemed as the Buyer who will bear individual legal responsibilities. f. Commission Bids The Company will make the proper effort to bid for the Prospective Buyers who instruct us to bid on their behalf by using the forms attached to the explanations of the catalogue; provided, however, bid commission instructions are delivered to the Company prior to the auction. If the Company receives several commission bids for one particular item, with all bid prices being equal and of the highest bid price at the auction, priority shall be given to the Buyer whose bid commission is delivered to the Company first. Commission bids are subject to auction conditions. The situation at the auction may prevent the Company from making the bid as commissioned.

Exchange Rate Conversion Board There will be an exchange rate conversion board operating at some auctions. Nonetheless, the auction will still be conducted in NT dollars. The exchange rate conversion board is not absolutely reliable and for the reference only. The accuracy of either the Lot numbering shown on the board or the equivalent of the bid price in any foreign currency is not within the control of the Company. The Company will not be responsible for any losses caused by the reliance of the Buyer on the exchange rate conversion board. j. Recorded Images There is image projection in some auctions; however, errors may occur during the operation. The Company is not liable for the color accuracy of the reproduced image and whether the projected image corresponds to the item being auctioned. k.

If the auctioneer announces the points for attention before the auction or the bidding, the Buyer shall pay attention for any announcement as its own responsibility. l. Successful Bids Under the discretion of the auctioneer, the fall of the hammer indicates the acceptance of the highest bid price, i.e., the Seller and the Buyer enter into a successful auction agreement.
