7. RESALE RIGHT

On 9th April 2006 legislative decree Nr. 118 of 13th February 2006 came into effect, which, implementing Directive 2001/84/ CE, introduced in the Italian legal order the right, for artists and manuscript authors, and their successors, to receive royalties on
every sale of the original piece following the first (the so-called "resale right"). The "resale right" is due only if the selling price is not lower than euro 3.000,00.
It is defined as follows:
- 4% for the portion of the sale price from EUR 3.000 to EUR 50.000,00;
- 3% for the portion of the sale price from EUR 50.000,01 to EUR 200.000,00;

In addition to the clearing price, auction premiums and other expenses, the Buyer undertakes to pay the "resale right", that would be up for the Seller to pay according to Law Nr. 633 of 22nd April 1941, Art. 152 (1).

11.1 The pieces for sale will be exposed before the auction takes place, in order to allow a proper viewing and examination. Whoever may be interested will have the opportunity to get a comprehensive view of their characteristics, including conservation status, actual dimensions and overall quality. As a consequence of that, the successful
bidder shall not question any error or inaccuracy that may be present on the catalogue or on the disclosures, or any discrepancy between the photo and the actual piece for sale, and therefore, the mismatches (whether pertaining to the year of creation, or references to any publication of the piece, execution technique and materials on which,
or with, the piece was created) between the information written on the catalogue and the actual characteristic of the awarded piece.
The lots auctioned by Mediartrade are sold in the conditions and conservation status shown during exposition; therefore any reference contained in the catalogue description is fully comprehensive; however condition reports that may supplement the catalogue description are available at a Buyer's request. It's possible to ask a condition report to the auction house, sending an e-mail to info@mediartrade.com, within the day before the auction or clicking on the item "Ask a condition report", on the page of every lot on Mediartrade website.
Every description provided by Mediartrade is made in good faith and constitutes nothing more than a mere opinion; hence said description shall not be considered binding and comprehensive for the Auction House. Mediartrade encourages prospective buyers to personally examine every lot and to request a dedicated evaluation to their own trusted restorer or any professional expert, before submitting an offer.

11.2 Any written or verbal statement provided by Mediartrade, including those contained in the catalogue, reports, comments or evaluation regarding any characteristic of the lot, such as authorship, authenticity, origin, allocation, date, age, historical period, cultural origin, quality (including market value and price), are purely based on opinions and are therefore subject of review and modification by Mediartrade, before the lot is put for sale. Mediartrade and its staff, collaborators, management and consultants are not responsible for any error or omission that may be found in said statements.
Any liability that Mediartrade has towards the Buyer, is limited to the clearing price and the purchase commission paid by the Buyers to Mediartrade. With the exception of willful misconduct or gross negligence, Mediartrade, i.e. its staff, collaborators, management and consultants shall not be responsible for any act or omission regarding lot preparation or the direction of the auction or any inconvenience related to the lots on sale.
