TERMS & CONDITIONS These Bidder Terms & Conditions (the “Terms”), amended by any published notice, whether posted, printed, or verbal, constitute the entire terms and conditions on which items in this sale will be offered and/or sold by Eaton & Brennan Auctions, LLC (the “Company”), on behalf of any consignor of such items for whom we act as an agent, to you as a bidder (hereinafter “Bidder(s),” “you” or “your”). By bidding at an Auction (“Auction”) provided by the Company directly through its affiliate websites, or through another online auction provider on behalf of the Company (“Services”), you are expressly agreeing to these Terms. Further, by bidding, you become party to a negotiation and expressly agree that if you are the highest Bidder, and the item or lot of items is declared sold, a contract for sale and purchase is created under the laws of the State of New Hampshire. If any future changes to these Terms are unacceptable to you, you should discontinue using our Services and not bid on any item(s) or lot of item(s) auctioned or offered for sale by the Company or through another online Auction offered on behalf of the Company. Your continued use of the Services now, or following the posting of notice of any such changes, will indicate your acceptance of these Terms and of any such changes. 1) Bidding (a) Bidders are required to register to bid and receive a paddle number prior to bidding. As part of the Bidder registration process, each Bidder must attest that they have received, read, and understand these Terms. If you have any questions regarding these Terms, please ask during the registration process or email us at bid@eatonbrennanauctions.com. (b) By bidding at an Auction, a Bidder is creating a contract, enforceable under the laws of the State of New Hampshire in the United States of America. Bidding on an item will be considered sufficient evidence that the Bidder accepts all conditions set forth in these Terms and any conditions outlined on the day of the sale. Any individual bidding on behalf of, or as an agent of another individual or company, whether such agency is disclosed, and whether the identity of the Principal (defined below) is disclosed, may be jointly and severally liable, along with the Principal, under any contract created by the acceptance of a bid. “Principal” shall mean the individual or company who authorizes an agent to act on his, her, or its behalf.

The “Auctioneer” shall mean the person who conducts or is responsible for a sale by Auction; the person may or may not actually call or cry the Auction. All bidding is in terms of United States Dollars. The Auctioneer determines who the highest Bidder is. In the event of a “tie-bid,” the Auctioneer may re-open the item between the tie Bidders. The Auctioneer’s decisions are final. A tie-bid occurs where, at the close of sale by action, more than one registered Bidder has submitted a high bid in the same amount. (d) Bidding Rules: Our auction is governed by the following rules centered around the time of 7PM ET on auction night: 1) If a lot receives a bid within the last 10 minutes (leading up to 7PM ET) on auction day it will remain open for an additional 10 minutes; 2) If any further bidding occurs, the extension timer will reset to 10 minutes; 3) If no further bidding activity occurs, the lot closes when the timer runs out; 4) Lots will close at a staggered end time of 30 seconds, beginning with Lot #1 at 7PM ET and concluding with the final lot in the auction; 5) Bidding rules apply individually to each lot in the Auction based on that lot’s bidding activity.***Please note: the time on each lot’s count-down timer is accurate, if you are at all unsure about when a lot will close, use the countdown timer as your definitive guide***Eaton & Brennan Auctions retains the discretion to close the Auction at any time, as it deems fit. 2) Payment ALL items invoiced to Bidder must be paid for in full prior to Bidder receiving ANY of the items from any Successful Bid.

The applicable sales tax rate is determined by the location to which your purchases are shipped, including the state, county, and city. If you choose to personally pick up your purchases at our New Hampshire facility, you will not be obligated to pay sales tax, as the State of New Hampshire does not impose a general sales and use tax. 5) Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability (a) Bidder expressly acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall the Company, its employees, agent, and/or Auctioneer(s) be liable for any damages, including, without limitation, any compensatory, incidental, or consequential damage.

Any statement, written or verbal, in the catalog, on a condition report, on an invoice, on a bill of sale, or stated before, during or after the Auction, or written or stated elsewhere, as to physical condition, history or provenance, origin, age, culture, source, measurement, size, weight, fineness, quality, imperfections or damage, authorship or artistry, usefulness, rarity, importance, historical relevance, where an item has been displayed, exhibited, or previously sold, or as to the items value or any other feature of the item, are statements of opinion and not representations or warranties.

By registering to bid and bidding, you attest that you assume full responsibility for all communication and will secure the Services of an interpreter if necessary. 9) Buyer’s Remedies / Conditions for Returns (a) If the Bidder wishes to dispute or contest the authenticity of a lot or item (including claiming it to be incorrect), they must adhere to the following procedure: Within 30 days of the Auction Date, the Bidder must provide Eaton & Brennan Auctions with written evidence that the lot is not authentic, as determined by a recognized expert in the field (as acknowledged by Eaton & Brennan Auctions within its discretion). Additionally, the Bidder must send the physical item or lot in question to Eaton & Brennan Auctions, along with all evidence used to challenge its authenticity. The term "Authenticity" pertains to a significant discrepancy between the description, genuineness, or attribution of the item as represented by Eaton & Brennan Auctions in their online catalog. If Eaton & Brennan Auctions concurs that the lot is not authentic as initially represented (at its sole discretion), the Bidder's exclusive remedy against Eaton & Brennan Auctions (including its affiliates, agents, employees, and contractors) will be a refund of the purchase price paid by the Bidder for the specific item, with no other costs, liabilities, or amounts recoverable by the Bidder. In the event that Eaton & Brennan Auctions does not agree with the Bidder's assertion, the Parties will then follow the dispute resolution procedures outlined in these Conditions of Sale. It is crucial for the Bidder to strictly adhere to the Authenticity Challenge Process as a prerequisite for initiating any legal action. (b) “Third-Party Guaranteed” Details: Eaton & Brennan Auction items indicated in the lot title as “Third-Party Guaranteed” are guaranteed to pass authentication by one of the major third-party authentication services. Recognized autograph authentication companies included in this guarantee are: JSA, Beckett/BAS, PSA, Roger Epperson/REAL Authentication, and ACOA. The authenticity return process is as outlined above in paragraph (a) and must be brought to our attention within 30 days after the auction in which the item was purchased. (c) If the description of any lot in the Catalog is significantly or substantially incorrect (for example, a major cataloging error), or if there is any other significant material issue related to the item or lot, the item or lot can be returned if it is sent back within seven (7) calendar days of receipt and received by Eaton & Brennan Auctions no later than twenty-one (21) calendar days after the Auction Date, along with a written explanation. (d) This paragraph establishes the Bidder's exclusive right concerning the return of items, and no refunds will be granted for items that are not returned to Eaton & Brennan Auctions within the specified time frame or do not significantly deviate from the description. The possibility of a refund is subject to Eaton & Brennan Auctions’s sole discretionary review, and any refund request must be made at the same time as the physical item or lot is returned to Eaton & Brennan Auctions. Failure to return the item within the given timeframe will be considered as the Bidder's acceptance of the item, and it will waive any and all claims related to the item, except in the case of authenticity. 10) Remedies for Non-Payment or Non-Compliance The Company and the consignor(s) reserve the right to use all remedies for non-payment or for non-compliance with these Terms afforded to the Company and the consignor(s) by law. In addition to any such remedy or remedies available to the Company and any consignor, including without limitation the right to hold Bidder liable for the price of the Successful Bid, the Company may, at its sole discretion and option: (a) Compel specific performance and hold Bidder liable for the full invoice price; (b) Cancel the sale, retaining all payments made by the Bidder as liquidated damages and not as a penalty; or (c) Resell any item or lot of items by public or private sale and hold the Bidder liable for all damages, including but not limited to, the difference between the invoice amount and the bid price of the Successful Bid realized when the item(s) are resold, all costs for resale, including our commission at our customary rate, and other damages incurred, including storage costs, sale expenses, and attorney fees. 11) Registration Registration is required to bid at any Company Auction, regardless of whether you are bidding in person, live online, by telephone, as an Absentee Bidder or any other classification of Bidder. (a) This registration includes your name, address, phone number, email address and credit card. Since the act of bidding at an Auction creates a binding contract, the giving of false registration information may constitute an act of fraud. By registering to bid you agree to be added to our email list. You have the option to opt-out after you receive the first email. (b) Online Bidders may expedite their registration by having a valid credit card on file with their online bidding account. Bidders on Live Auctioneers who provide a valid credit card will be automatically enrolled in Auto-Pay, which will result in having their entire invoice charged to their credit card on file 72 hours following the sending of invoices. Bidders wishing to pay by another method within the 7 day payment period may notify the Company that they intend to pay by check, cash, or wire transfer in order to opt out of Autopay. (c) After your registration is processed, staff of the Company will provide you with a Bidder number paddle. This paddle allows you to bid at the Auction for which you are registered. You must register for each Auction in which you would like to bid. 12) Standard Bid Increments All bidding, including absentee, online, and phone bidding, will follow the established “Standard Bid Increments” outlined below. All attempts will be made to strictly follow the Standard Bid Increments. However, the Auctioneer reserves the right to deviate from the Standard Bid Increments, as deemed necessary in his or her sole discretion. If the Bid amount is: The Standard Bid Increment is: $100 – $200 $10 $200 – $500 $25 $500 – $1,000 $50 $1,000 – $5,000 $100 $5,000 – $10,000 $250 $10,000 – $20,000 $500 $20,000 – $50,000 $1,000 $500,000 + $75,000 $2,500 13) Reserve Some items are subject to a “Reserve” or minimum bid, unless otherwise stipulated. The Reserve is the lowest amount the seller is willing to accept for the item(s) or lot. Company personnel, or the Auctioneer, may bid on behalf of the seller up to the Reserve. The Reserve will almost never be higher than the low Auction Estimate, which is the estimated amount, at minimum, of a Successful Bid. 14) Live Bidding Online The Company assumes no liability for damages incurred by the failure or disruption of online Services through any Auction. Once you register with the online bidding Service of your choice, the Company will review your bidding and dispute history before approval. Providing a credit card to the online bidding Service of your choice may expedite the process. Once the registration process is complete, you may then bid online at the Auction for which you have registered. You must register for each Auction in which you would like to bid. If using an online bidding Service, a Bidder must, in addition to accepting and following the Terms herein outlined, accept and follow the Terms & Conditions set forth by the online bidding Service. Following the close of the Auction, Bidders will receive an invoice for any Successful Bid(s), to include the Buyer’s Premium and Sales Tax, which will be due and payable immediately. 15) Removal of Lots from a Sale The Company will make all reasonable efforts to have all items advertised available for sale. However, occasionally an item must be removed from the sale or items must be combined into lots. The Company assumes no liability for damages incurred by the removal of an item from a sale or from lotting items together. 16) Auction Estimates Any Auction Estimate is only an approximation of what the Company believes the item could bring at Auction, based on its experience and sales data from the sale of similar items. Auction Estimates are NOT Appraisals and are not to be used as the value of an item. Auction estimates are subject to revision. 17) Sellers / Consignors Sellers and Consignors are not permitted to bid on their own items nor are they permitted to have an employee or agent bid on their behalf, except when the Company is permitted to bid on behalf of the Seller or Consignor up to the amount of a Reserve. 18) Employees & Associates Employees and associates of the Company are permitted to purchase any item(s) and lot(s) under the same Terms, rules and regulations as the public. 19) Governing Law & Arbitration (a) The existence and interpretation of these Terms shall be governed and construed under the laws of the State of New Hampshire, without regard to its conflicts of law rules. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof shall be exclusively resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules then in effect, as modified by the provisions of this Section. (b) The venue for such arbitration shall be Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, or such other location to which both you and the Company may otherwise expressly agree in writing (the “Designated Location”). Arbitration proceedings shall take place before a single arbitrator who shall be a lawyer or former judge. If the parties cannot agree upon the choice of the arbitrator within twenty (20) business days of the date the matter is submitted for arbitration, the parties shall request, and accept, assignment of an arbitrator from JAMS pursuant to its rules. The arbitrator shall have authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of competent jurisdiction sitting in the state encompassing the Designated Location could grant in conformity to applicable law. Any arbitration award shall be accompanied by a written statement containing a summary of the issues in controversy and a description of the award, with explanation of the reasons for the award. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding, and judgment may be entered upon such award by any court of competent jurisdiction. (c) You and the Company agree that all arbitration proceedings shall be private and confidential and further agree not to issue any press release or public announcement with respect to any arbitration proceeding or any court action taken to enforce the arbitrator’s award, including, without limitation, the fact that the arbitration or court action is being conducted, or disclose any aspect thereof, including any testimony, discovery and any documents filed in the course of such proceedings, except to the arbitrator and his/her staff, the parties’ attorneys and their staff, any experts retained by the parties, and to the court as necessary to enforce the arbitration award, provided that at the request of either party, the parties shall cooperate in seeking a protective order with respect to any such information disclosed to the court. (d) The foregoing dispute resolution provisions of these Terms shall not prevent the Company from seeking or obtaining preliminary injunctive or other provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction as provided in these Terms to preventing irreparable injury, loss or damage pending a final resolution of the dispute, claim or controversy according to such dispute resolution provisions. (e) In any legal action between you and the Company arising from or related to these Terms, the Company shall be entitled to recover its costs and fees, including actual attorney fees, for any claim or matter that it prevails upon, including any fees or costs generated in, relating to and in preparation of litigation or arbitration. All forum fees and expenses in any arbitration, including, without limitation, the arbitrators’ fees, shall be advanced equally by you and the Company; provided, however, that your failure to timely pay your portion of any arbitration fees shall entitle the Company to a default award (if you are the respondent) or dismissal with prejudice (if you are the claimant). 20) Venue Acknowledgment By bidding at this Auction, whether in person or by agent, absentee bid, online, by telephone bid, or other means, the Bidder agrees that the contract created by these conditions of sale is made and performed in Hillsborough County, in the State of New Hampshire, in the United States of America. 21) Assignment These Terms, and any rights granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by the Company without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment by you in violation hereof shall be null and void. 22) Entire Agreement These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company and supersede any prior written or oral agreement. There are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms. Neither these Terms nor any provision hereof may be modified, amended, or waived except by the written agreement of the Company. 23) Interpretation No provision of this Agreement is to be interpreted for or against any party because that party or such party’s legal representative drafted such provision. 24) Severability If any term or other provision, or part of any provision or sentence of these Terms is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule or law, or public policy, the provision, or any part of it, or sentence, shall be severed from these Terms and all other conditions and provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
