If the resale results in a higher price than the original Hammer Price obtained, the surplus will be paid to the Seller. In such case, the Buyer waives any claim which the Buyer may have to the Lot and agrees that any resale price will be deemed commercially reasonable.

AUCTION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully and seek independent advice. The Lots are available for inspection and a Bidder must form your own opinion and judgment in relation to it. Bidders are strongly advised to examine any Lot or have it examined on your behalf by an expert before the Sale.

These conditions and all other terms, conditions and notices set out in the Catalogue of KL Lifestyle Art Space ("KLAS"), or announced by the Auctioneer or posted at the Sale Venue (together the 'Auction
Conditions'), form the terms on which KLAS contracts and/or regulates its relationship with Bidders, Buyers and Sellers. All Bidders, Buyers and Sellers are deemed to be aware of the Auction Conditions and their legal implications.

Notices and announcements affecting the Sale may be made during the Auction without prior written notice and these form part of the Auction Conditions, provided that the conditions set out herein will prevail over any inconsistency unless expressly stated otherwise. A Bidder should be alert to the possibility of changes and should check in advance of bidding if there have been any announcements or notifications, if he is unsure.

The Auction Conditions apply to all aspects of a Sale, including without limitation, the consignment of Lots, the bidding of Lots, the Delivery of Lots, the resale of Lots, the Payment of the Hammer Price and the Buyer's Premium.

Section 1
NOTICE TO BIDDERS

General

1.1 This notice is addressed by KLAS to any person who may be interested in a Lot, such as Bidders and potential Bidders (including any eventual Buyer of the Lot) but should also be noted by Sellers. The List of Definitions and a Glossary of terms used is set out as Appendix 1 at the end of these conditions and are deemed incorporated into the Auction Conditions.

KLAS is Seller's Agent Only

1.2 In its role as Auctioneer of Lots, KLAS acts solely for and in the interests of the Seller. KLAS' job is to sell the Lot at the highest price obtainable at the Sale to a Bidder. If KLAS or any of its staff or representatives makes any statement or representation in respect of a Lot, or if KLAS provides a Condition Report on a Lot, it does so, on the Seller's behalf. Upon a Sale, the resulting contract ("the Contract of Sale") is between the Buyer and the Seller and not with KLAS. The terms of the Contract of Sale between a Seller and a Buyer is set out in Section 2.

1.3 KLAS does not act for Buyers or Bidders, and does not give advice to Buyers or Bidders. Accordingly, no statement made by KLAS, its staff or representative may be relied upon by a Bidder as the inducement for any bid or Sale. Bidders and Buyers are strongly advised to seek and obtain independent advice on the Lots and their value before bidding for them, and in every case, Bidders and Buyers will be deemed to have exercised their own independent judgment in deciding to bid for or purchase any Lot.

Tests

1.4 KLAS is under no obligation to investigate or carry out any tests on any Lot to establish the accuracy of any Descriptions or opinions given by KLAS, the Seller or by any person, whether in the Catalogue or elsewhere. KLAS does not make or agree to make any representation of fact, and undertakes no obligation or duty (whether in contract or tort) in respect of the accuracy or completeness of any statement or representation about a Lot.

1.5 KLAS and the Seller give no guarantees or warranties to the Buyer and any implied warranties or conditions are excluded (save in so far as such obligations cannot be excluded by statute). In particular, any representations, written or oral, including those in any catalogue, report, commentary or valuation, in relation to any aspect or quality of any Lot, including price or value:

(a) are statements of opinion only; and

(b) may be revised prior to the Lot being offered for Sale
(including whilst the Lot is on public view.

Bidder's Duty to Inspect

1.6 Subject to the Contractual Description about a Lot in the Catalogue, Lots are sold to the Buyer on an "as is" basis, and may contain faults and imperfections. Illustrations and photographs contained in the Catalogue (other than photographs forming part of the Description) or elsewhere of any Lot are for identification purposes only. They may not reveal the true condition of a Lot. A photograph or illustration may not reflect an accurate reproduction of the colour(s) or dimensions of the Lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the Sale and it is for a Bidder to satisfy yourself as to each and every aspect of a Lot, including its authorship, attribution, condition, provenance, history, background, authenticity, style, period, age, suitability, quality, origin, value and estimated selling price (including the Hammer Price).

1.7 It should be remembered that the actual condition of a Lot may not be as good as that indicated by its outward appearance. In particular, portions may have been replaced or renewed and Lots may not be authentic or of satisfactory quality. Given the age of many Lots they may have been damaged and/or repaired and a Bidder should not assume that a Lot is in good condition. If a Bidder yourself do not have expertise regarding a Lot, a Bidder should consult someone who does to advise a Bidder.

Condition Reports and Estimates

1.8 KLAS may provide Condition Reports at the request of a Bidder. Neither KLAS, its employees nor agents, nor the Seller, provides any guarantee in relation to the nature of the Lot. References in the Catalogue entry or the Condition Report to the condition of the Lot are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the Bidder. The absence of any statement of defect does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others.

1.9 Estimates are in the currency of the Sale. Contractual Descriptions and Estimates may be amended at KLAS' discretion from time to time by notice given orally or in writing before or during a Sale. The estimated price range of the Lot should not be relied on as statement that this is the price at which the Lot will sell or its value for any other purpose. The estimated price range is subject to change and may be revised anytime without prior notice. Buyers should not rely upon estimated price range as the representation or guarantee of actual selling prices. Estimates do not include the Buyer's Premium.

Storage Cost

All lots will be stored at KL Lifestyle Art Space.

Buyers will have to pay storage and insurance fee payable directly to Mediate Communications Sdn Bhd, if respective lots bought from the KLAS Art Auction are not collected within 5 (five) working days after the auction.

Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

1.10 KLAS disclaims for itself and on behalf of the Seller, any duty or responsibility to a Bidder in contract or tort (whether direct, collateral, express, implied or otherwise) and your attendance at the Sale Venue is entirely voluntary on your part and no liability is assumed by KLAS or its employees (howsoever caused) for any loss suffered by a Bidder arising from your participation in or presence at the auction.

1.11 Without prejudice to 1.10 above, and save in so far as it relates to any liability to a Buyer which KLAS may have, any claim against KLAS will be limited to the Hammer Price and the Buyer's Premium actually paid to KLAS.

Counterfeits

1.12 In the event the Sale of a Lot subsequently proves to be a counterfeit KLAS will have the right to terminate the Sale and will use its best endeavours to obtain a refund from the Seller for the Buyer, provided that:

(a) no later than one (1) year after the date of the Sale, the Buyer has notified KLAS in writing of the number of the Lot, the date of the auction at which it was purchased and provided evidence by no less than two (2) experts to question the authenticity of the Lot; and

(b) is able to transfer good title to Seller free from any third party claims arising after the date of the Sale to the Buyer; and

(c) is able to return the Lot to KLAS in the same condition as at the date of the Sale; and

(d) the Lot was not in conformity with the Contractual Description at the date of the Sale or the Contractual Description was not in accordance with the generally accepted opinions of scholars and experts at that time not indicated any conflict in such opinions; and

(e) there were methods of establishing that the Lot was counterfeit at the date of publication of the Catalogue by means of processes which were generally accepted for use that were not unreasonably expensive or impractical or unlikely to have caused damage to the Lot but were not applied; and

(f) the Lot was not a deliberate Forgery and the correct Description was not reflected by the Catalogue Description.

1.13 No Lot shall be considered a counterfeit by reason only of any damage and/or restoration and/or modification work of any kind (including repainting or overpainting).

1.14 KLAS reserves the right to seek additional independent advice before exercising its right to terminate a Sale on the grounds of counterfeit.

Seller's Liability to Bidders and Buyers

1.15 This Notice to Bidders is given by KLAS as auctioneer and as agent for the Seller. Therefore they also describe the Seller's duties and liabilities to the Buyer. The Seller's obligations to the Buyer are limited to the same extent as KLAS's obligations to the Buyer. Any express or implied conditions or warranties by the Seller are excluded save in so far as it is not possible to exclude obligations implied by statute.

Bids

1.16 KLAS has the right, at its absolute discretion, to refuse admission to any person to the premises or participation of any person in the Auction or any part of the Auction and to reject any bid.

1.17 Prospective Buyers or Bidders who wish to bid at the Auction must register as a Bidder at anytime after publication of the relevant Bid Registration Form before the start of the Auction, as determined by KLAS at its discretion. A Bidder or prospective Buyer must complete and sign a Bid Registration Form and provide identification beforebidding. KLAS may require the production of bank or other credit references.

1.18 In making a bid at the Auction, a Bidder will be deemed to do so as principal and will be held personally and solely liable for the bid, in particular to pay the Hammer Price, and the Buyer's Premium and all applicable taxes and levies, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with KLAS before the commencement of the Sale that the Bidder is acting as agent on behalf of any identified third party acceptable to KLAS. In such circumstances, both the Bidder and his principal will be jointly and severally liable under the Auction Conditions.

1.19 KLAS will use reasonable efforts to carry out Absentee Bids delivered to KLAS prior to the Sale for the convenience of clients who are not present at the Auction in person. Absentee Bids must be made by completing and returning the relevant Absentee Bid Form no later than 24 hours before the Sale, in manner acceptable to KLAS.

1.20 KLAS may at its sole discretion and subject to any conditions and procedures it may impose, accept bids by telephone ("Telephone Bids") from known and verified clients. Any bid communicated by telephone at the Auction will be deemed given by the caller or his principal, jointly and severally.

1.21 If firm bids on a particular Lot received before the commencement of the Auction are identical to the highest bids on the Lot received at Auction, the Lot will be sold to the person making the earlier bid.

1.22 Execution of Absentee Bids and Telephone Bids is a complimentary service undertaken on a best endeavour basis subject to prevailing circumstances at the time of the Auction. KLAS does not accept liability for failing to execute an Absentee Bid or a Telephone Bid or any errors and omissions in connection with them.

Conduct of the Auction

1.23 The Auctioneer will commence and accept bidding at levels that he considers appropriate for the Lot under auction and the size of competing Bids. The Auctioneer has the absolute and sole discretion at any time to:

(a) refuse any bid which does not exceed the previous bid by at least 10% or by such other amount as the Auctioneer will in his absolute discretion decide;

(b) to advance the bidding in such manner as he may decide;

(c) to withdraw any Lot;

(d) to combine any two or more Lots; and

in the case of any errors or dispute, and whether during or after the Sale, to determine the successful Bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the Sale or to reoffer and resell the Lot in dispute and/or take any such actions as he reasonably thinks fit in the circumstances. In the event of any dispute in respect of a Sale, the decision of KLAS will be conclusive.

1.24 Bids must be placed in Ringgit Malaysia. The person who makes the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer (and that person's disclosed principal, if applicable) will be the Buyer. The striking of the Auctioneer's hammer marks the acceptance of the highest bid and identifies the Hammer Price at which the Lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer to the Buyer. The striking of the Auctioneer's hammer also marks the conclusion of a Contract of Sale between the Seller and the Buyer in terms of these Auction Conditions.

1.25 Unless otherwise indicated, all Lots are offered subject to a Reserve. The Reserve will not exceed the estimated price range printed in the Catalogue. Lots that are subject to a Reserve will be identified with the symbol next to the Lot number. In the event that there is no bid on a Lot, the Auctioneer may deem such lot unsold.

1.26 The Seller may not bid for his own property and may not instruct or permit any other person to bid for the property on his behalf. KLAS shall be entitled to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the Reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other Bidders. The Auctioneer may not indicate that he is making such bids on behalf of the Seller.

After the Sale

1.27 Upon conclusion of the relevant session of the Auction in which the Lot was sold, the Buyer shall pay to KLAS the full amount due no later than seven (7) calendar days after the Auction and provide KLAS with his name and permanent address and, if so requested, proof of identify. Payment will not be deemed to have been made until KLAS is in receipt of the full amount due to KLAS from the buyer either in cash or cleared funds.

1.28 Risk and responsibility for the Lot (including frames or glass where relevant) passes to the Buyer at the time payment of the Purchase Price is due.

1.29 The Buyer will be asked to sign a Buyer's Acknowledgment Form upon the fall of the hammer and to make payment of twelve percent (12%) of Hammer Price (or RM500.00, whichever is greater) as a non-refundable earnest deposit before leaving the Sale Venue. Failure to sign the form and make payment for the earnest deposit will render the Sale null and void and the Auctioneer will be entitled immediately offer the Lot for resale.

1.30 KLAS does not accept responsibility for notifying the Buyer of the result of his bids. Buyers are requested to contact.

KLAS by telephone or in person as soon as possible after the Sale to obtain details of the outcome of their bids.

Payment and Delivery

1.31 An invoice for the full Purchase Price will be sent to the Buyer to the address provided by the Buyer. Property in the Lot will only pass to the Buyer upon full payment of the Purchase Price in cash of in cleared funds. Until that time, the Buyer acquires no title or ownership in the Lot.

1.34 The export of any Lot from Malaysia or import into any other country may require one or more export or import licenses or permits. It is the Buyer's responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import license. The denial of any export or import license will not justify the rescission or cancellation of the Sale by the Buyer or any delay by the Buyer in making payment of the full Purchase Price when due.

1.35 If the Buyer without the prior agreement of KLAS fails to make payment of the full Purchase Price, KLAS will be entitled in its absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights which KLAS and the Seller may have, to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies:

(a) to forthwith terminate and annul the Contract of Sale;

(b) to charge the Buyer, the Seller's and KLAS's Expenses;

(c) to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 6% (six per cent) per annum on the full amount due to the extent that it remains unpaid for more than four (4) weeks after the date of the auction;

The net sale proceeds (after Expenses) will be applied in reduction of the Buyer's debt. If a resale should result in a lower price than the original hammer price obtained, KLAS and the Seller will be entitled to claim any shortfall in the Purchase price from the Buyer together with any costs incurred. If the resale results in a higher price than the original Hammer Price obtained, the surplus will be paid to the Seller. In such case, the Buyer waives any claim which the Buyer may have to the Lot and agrees that any resale price will be deemed commercially reasonable.
