ARTICLE 4: METHOD OF AUCTION AND FORMATION OF PURCHASE AGREEMENT
1. The Horses are sold by auction in the condition in which they are at the time of auction.
2. Bids are made by digitally entering a bid. Each Bidder is expected to bid for itself and is bound by its bid, which is deemed to be unconditional and irrevocable. The Bidder offers for its own account and risk. If a Bidder is mandated by a partnership of buyers or a legal entity , this must be stated to the Auctioneer when registering the Bidder for the Auction. A Bidder is held to its offer until a higher offer is accepted.

From an amount of € 100.000,-- (in words: hundred thousand) the bidding steps are € 10.000,-- (in words: ten thousand).

The final closing will then take place when no new bid has been made for five (5) minutes after the last bid.
5. The Horse is assigned to the highest Bidder. From the time of the Allocation, the Purchase Agreement between the Buyer and the Seller is concluded on the conditions as set out in the model attached as Appendix 1 .
6. As soon as possible after the Auction has ended, the Auctioneer will send the Horse Purchase Agreement to the Buyer and the Seller. The Buyer and the Seller will return the signed Purchase Agreement to the Auctioneer within five (5) Business Days, solely to establish the Purchase Agreement. The unsigned return of the Purchase Agreement by the Buyer and / or the Seller does not affect the conclusion of the Purchase Agreement.
7. The Purchase Agreement is concluded directly and exclusively between the Seller and the Buyer. The Auctioneer only has the role of mediator by facilitating the Auction Site.
ARTICLE 5: PAYMENT AND DELIVERY
1. After Allocation of a Horse, the Auctioneer shall draw up an invoice and the Buyer has to pay the Purchase Price, to be increased by the Buyers’ Commission and, if applicable VAT, to be paid on a bank account to be designated by the Auctioneer and with due observance of the payment term of five (5) days. The Auctioneer will keep the Purchase Price on behalf of buyer until the moment of Delivery and after the Delivery the Auctioneer will keep the Purchase Price on behalf of the Seller.
2. If VAT must be levied on the Purchase Price of a Horse, this will be stated both online and on the invoice to be drawn up by the Auctioneer.
3. After the Horse has been received from the Buyer, the Auctioneer will pay the Purchase Price after deduction of the Seller’s commission owed by the Seller to the Auctioneer to the Seller in a bank account to be indicated by the Seller, after the Horse has been delivered to the satisfaction of the Buyer and Seller. The Auctioneer is authorised to settle mutual claims between the Seller and the Buyer, but is not obliged to do so.
4. The Seller assumes the obligation, if and for as long as, a Horse is younger than five (5) months, to leave it with the mare, without the Buyer owing any compensation for this.
5. From the moment the horse leaves the stables of the seller, the Horse will be at the expense and risk of the Buyer. A Horse that has been sold at the Auction and is five (5) months or older must picked up by the Buyer and taken by the Buyer within ten (10) days after the Auction. A Horse sold at the Auction and was younger than four and a half (4.5) months at the time must have actually been picked up by the Buyer when the Horse is five (5) months old and taken by the Buyer. Derogations from the delivery periods referred to in this paragraph may be made only in exceptional cases and after the intervention of the Auctioneer. The Seller informs the Buyer one (1) week before the Horse reaches the age of five (5) months and will then prepare for any insurance. On the day that the Horse has reached the age of five (5) months and has not yet been picked up, the Horse is from that day at the expense and risk of the Buyer. If the Buyer or the Seller does not meet his purchase or delivery obligation and is in default, the negligent party forfeits to the other party an immediately
payable and non-moderable fine equal to the Purchase Price plus € 10,000 (in words: ten thousand euros).
6. The Horse should be picked up by the Buyer, unless otherwise agreed between the Seller and the Buyer.
7. The ownership of a Horse will not transfer to the Buyer until after it has fulfilled all its financial obligations under the Purchase Agreement and has actually been delivered to an address indicated by the Buyer .
8. During the Auction, an Embryo can be auctioned together with a surrogate mother. In those cases, the price of the Embryo is increased by the price for the surrogate mare. In those cases, consultation between the seller of the surrogate mare and buyer must give an explanation as to whether the surrogate mare will be sold or rented out or whether another solution will be chosen for the use or ownership of the surrogate mare. The total cost of purchase will therefore consist of the Purchase Price for the Embryo plus the Buyer’s Commission, the compensation for the surrogate mare and any VAT and will have to be paid as defined in paragraph 1 in this Article 6.
9. Any delivery other than the previously required is entirely at the Buyers expense and risk. The Auctioneer shall not be liable for the consequences of non-compliance with the provisions of this Article.
10. If the allocated horse is still in the sellers’ stable after 10 (ten) days after the auction, the seller may charge €20,- per day.
ARTICLE 6: DEFAULT
1. If the Buyer considers that the Horse does not comply with the Purchase Agreement after the actual Delivery, he must inform the Seller within three (3) days of the conclusion that the Horse does not comply with the contract by means of a registered letter to be sent to the Seller. The Buyer must send a copy of this letter to the Auctioneer.
2. The Seller shall ensure that the Horse he sold does not suffer from defects and stable vices, including air sucking, systematic weaving or manger-biting for a period of two times twenty-four (24) hours after actual Delivery of the Foal by the Seller to the Buyer. This guarantee does not include the absence of osteochondrotic abnormalities (OCD) in the Foal and the presence of the WFFS gene. If the law and/or case law on the relevant guarantee and/or its duration are bindingly different, then this mandatory other provision applies. If a Horse is offered for sale with a defect known prior to the sale by both the Seller and the Buyer, of which a veterinary surgeon appointed by the Auctioneer declares in writing that recovery (healing) is possible, the Seller assumes the obligation to keep the
Horse under sight and to take care of recovery (healing), without any additional costs for the Buyer. The Horse remains at the expense and risk of the Seller until the time of actual delivery to the Buyer.
3. The Seller guarantees the correctness of the pedigree data. The foal’s paternity should be checked by DNA testing.
4. If the Seller does not comply with his obligation to auction the Horse as arising from the Auction Agreement, he will owe the Auctioneer an immediately payable fine of € 5.000,-- (in words: five thousand euros).
ARTICLE 7: LIABILITY
1. The Auctioneer excludes, to the extent permitted by law, any liability towards the Buyer, the Seller and third parties and in particular, but not limited to the following cases:
(i) the state of health of the Horses to be auctioned, including in relation to osteochondrotic abnormalities (OCD);
(ii) where a Horse listed in the online auction catalogue is ultimately not offered for auction;
(iii) damage, such as damage in the form of loss of profit.
2. In the case of liability of the Auctioneer, the total damages shall be limited to the amount for which the liability insurance claims benefit, plus, where appropriate, the amount of the excess which, in accordance with the insurance conditions, is not borne by the insurer.
3. If in any case the insurer does not make a payment or the damage is not covered by the insurance, the liability of the Auctioneer will never exceed the Purchase Price.
4. The Auctioneer is not liable for errors in the Auction Catalogue regarding the pedigree (these are the data relating to the pedigree of the Foals to be auctioned) or other data. The Seller and the Buyer have a responsibility to verify the accuracy of this information.
ARTICLE 8: COMPETENT COURT AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
1. These General Auction Conditions and all agreements relating to or resulting from these General Auction Conditions shall be of application under Dutch law, with total exclusion from the applicability of the Vienna Convention on Purchase (CISG).
2. All disputes arising from these General Auction Conditions or from further agreements relating to or resulting from these General Auction Conditions should be referred to the competent court in the South Netherlands district.
