ARTIST RESALE RIGHTS & R OYA LT Y C H A R G E S

An item catalogued with the name of an artist, without any qualification, is a work by the artist.

From 1st January 2012 all UK market professionals (including auctioneers, dealers and galleries) are required to collect a royalty payment for all living artists and the beneficiaries of deceased artists up to 70 years following their death. The payment must be

‘Attributed to’ – an item created by the artist in whole or in part, as recognised by Dawsons.

collected after each new sale. ‘Studio of’ – or Workshop of as recognised by Dawsons, the item was created in the studio or workshop of an artist, and possibly under their supervision. ‘Circle of’ – as recognised by Dawsons, the item was created during the time of and influenced by the artist. ‘Follower of’ – Dawsons recognises that the item was executed in the style of the artist, but not necessarily by a pupil. ‘Manner of’ – as recognised by Dawsons, the item was executed in the style of the artist, at a later date. ‘After’ – Dawsons recognises that this item is a copy of the artist’s original work. ‘Signed, dated or inscribed’ – as recognised by Dawsons, the item was officially signed, dated or inscribed by the artist. The inclusion of a question mark indicates an element of doubt on Dawsons’ part.

Items labelled with a + in the catalogue and sold for £1,000 or more will be subject to a further percentage of the hammer price as follows: £0 to £50,000 | subject to 4% £50,001 to £200,000 | subject to 3% £200,001 to £350,000 | subject to 1% £350,001 to £500,000 | subject to 0.5% Exceeding £500,000 | subject to 0.25% The Artist’s Resale Right payable will include one of the above rates, with a maximum royalty payment of £12,500 for a single transaction. The total resale rate will be based on the pound sterling/euro reference exchange rate as quoted by the European Central Bank on the date of sale. All royalty charges are passed on to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (DACS). No handling costs or other charges in relation to the Artists Resale Rights are retained by Dawsons. There is no VAT payable on this royalty charge.

‘Bearing signature’ – as recognised by Dawsons, the signature, date or inscription was by the hand of someone other than the artist. ‘Dimensions’ – item dimensions are measured from and not including the mount or frame. All dimensions are given in centimetres stating height before width.

I N F O R M AT I O N F O R B U Y E R S 1. INTRODUCTION The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers of Dawsons, particularly those inexperienced or new to our saleroom or online bidding platforms. All sales are conducted according to our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection in person, on our websites and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand. 2. AGENCY As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy, your primary contract is with the seller. 3. ESTIMATES Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price or may be above the reserve price. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive. 4. BUYER’S PREMIUM The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium of 23% on the hammer price of each lot purchased. In addition VAT is payable on this premium at the standard rate (presently 20%). (Buyer’s premium 27.6% inclusive of VAT). 5. VAT The addition of (*) or (VAT applied on hammer price) to the lot description indicates that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the standard rate, presently 20%, on the hammer price as well as being payable on the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the vVAT included within the premium is not recoverable as input tax. 6. ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHTS / DROIT DE SUITE Lots as indicated † in the catalogue and if sold for the equivalent of €1000 or more on the day of the auction will be subject to a further percentage of the hammer price as follows: From €0 to €50,000 subject to 4% From €50,001 to €200,000 subject to 3% From €200,001 to €350,000 subject to 1% From €350,001 to €500,000 subject to 0.5% Exceeding €500,000 subject to 0.25% The Artist’s Resale Right payable will be the aggregate of the amounts payable under the above rate bands, subject to maximum royalty payable of €12,500 for any single work each time it is sold. Calculations of the artist’s resale right will be based on the pound sterling/Euro reference exchange rate quoted on the date of sale by the European Central Bank. 7. AGENTS We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. Additionally, in specified circumstances, lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a three-week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

9. COLOURED GEMS It is common practice for gemstones to be treated in order to enhance colour and clarity. Unless stated, buyers should presume coloured stones may well have been exposed to some sort of treatment. 10. EXPORT OF GOODS Buyers intending to export goods, should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. 11. BIDDING Bidders are required to register with us before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Photographic identification is required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding. 12. ABSENTEE BIDDING (COMMISSION BIDDING) Absentee bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding the buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible, with regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical absentee bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for leaving absentee bids by telephone or email. Please ensure bids are left at least one hour prior to the start of the auction. 13. LIVE ONLINE BIDDING (a) An online bidding service is offered via dawsonsauctions. co.uk, the-saleroom.com, EasyLiveAuction.com and Live Auctioneers. In completing the bidder registration on these sites the buyer is agreeing to Dawsons conditions of sale. (b) In the case where a debit or credit card has been used to register, the buyer also agrees to authorise Dawsons, if they so wish, to charge the debit or credit card given in part or full payment, including all fees, for items successfully purchased in the auction via the online bidding platforms. (c) Please note that any lots purchased via dawsonsauctions. co.uk or the-saleroom.com, whether live bidding or absentee bidding, will be subject to an additional 4.95% commission charge + VAT at the rate imposed on the hammer price. Any lots purchased via EasyLiveAuction.com will be subject to an additional 3% commission charge + VAT at the rate imposed on the hammer price or £3 + VAT for the whole auction. (d) Dawsons offers online bidding services as a convenience to its clients, but neither Dawsons nor the seller will be responsible to you for errors during or after the sale or failures to execute bids, either live bids or absentee bids placed on the internet or on your mobile device, including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by: (i) any loss of connection to the auction being conducted online; (ii) a breakdown or problems with the online bidding software or the website service provider; and/or (iii) a breakdown or problems with any internet connection, computer, mobile device or system. 14. METHODS OF PAYMENT Payment can be made by cash, debit and credit cards or bank transfer. For international bank transfers an administration fee of £25 is payable. Cheques are not accepted. Please note that regulation of money laundering means we are limited to receiving the equivalent of €15,000 in cash payment. 15. COLLECTION AND STORAGE (a) Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay may result in the buyer paying storage charges. All furniture and carpets must be collected within three working days following the auction. All other lots must be collected within five working days following the auction. Storage charges of £2 per lot per day + VAT will be strictly enforced thereafter. (b) Dawsons are unable to pack, post or deliver any items purchased through public or online auctions, but will happy to provide details of a local delivery company if required. These are suggestions only and are not the recommendation of Dawsons or affiliated with Dawsons in any way and as such Dawsons cannot be held responsible for the individual performance of any other companies.

8. ELECTRICAL GOODS These are sold as ‘antiques’ or ‘decorative’ items only and if bought for use must first be checked for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician.

Lots will be purchased by the Auctioneer on behalf of the absentee bidder for the lowest price allowed by other bids and/or reserves if any, up to and including their maximum bid amount recorded. The Auctioneers cannot accept responsibility for any neglect or default in executing or failing to execute absentee bids whether through the auctioneer or through any online bidding software, or where a bidding slip has been completed incorrectly.

95


Dawsons conditions of sale. i. In the case where a debit or credit card has been used to register the buyer also agrees to authorise Dawsons, if they so wish, to charge the debit or credit card given in part or full payment, including all fees, for items successfully purchased in the auction via the online bidding platforms. ii. Please note that any lots purchased via the-saleroom.com, whether live bidding or absentee bidding, will be subject to an additional 4.95% commission charge + VAT at the rate imposed on the hammer price. Any lots purchased via EasyLiveAuction.com will be subject to an additional 3% commission charge + VAT at the rate imposed on the hammer price. iii. Dawsons offers online bidding services as a convenience to its clients, but neither Dawsons nor the seller will be responsible to you for errors during or after the sale or failures to execute bids, either live bids or absentee bids, placed on the internet or on your mobile device, including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by: (aa) any loss of connection to the auction being conducted online; (bb) a breakdown or problems with the online bidding software or the web site service provider; and/or (cc) a breakdown or problems with any internet connection, computer, mobile device or system. 11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY 1. The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third-party claims. 2. No representation or warranties are made by Dawsons or the seller as to whether any lot is subject to copyright or whether the buyer acquires copyright in any lot. 12. AGENCY The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers. 13. TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that Lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the Lot. 14. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITION OF LOTS 1. Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description of a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we, the auctioneer nor our employees or agents, nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries. 2. Condition Reports. Reports on the condition of any lot are offered by the Auctioneers as a statement of opinion only, and not of fact. Dawsons Auctioneers Limited are not liable for any errors or omissions contained therein. The buyer must satisfy themselves to the condition of any given lot prior to bidding. Dawsons will not be held responsible for any damage or defect that has not been notified to the buyer. Catalogue illustrations are for guidance only and will not convey full information as to the actual condition of lots. 3. Where the term (a/f) is used this refers to a lot being ‘as found’, it is used for guidance only and indicates in our opinion there is significant damage or repair to an item, the omission of this term does not indicate there is not significant damage or repair to an item and Dawsons are not liable for the omission of this term. 4. Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation. 15. FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. Dawsons may require the buyer to obtain at the buyer’s cost the reports of two independent and recognised experts in the field, mutually acceptable to Dawsons and the buyer. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the Lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the Lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description

96

reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) if you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale. 16. ONLINE ONLY TIMED AUCTIONS These following terms are applicable only to sales conducted online only and are to be used in addition to the conditions of sale. 1. Right to Cancel. If you are a consumer resident in the European Union you have the right to cancel the contract for the purchase of a lot within 14 calendar days without giving any reason. i. The cancellation period will expire after 14 calendar days from the day on which you acquire (or a party nominated by you and is not the shipper) physical possession of the lot. ii. To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear written statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or email). The communication must be received within 14 calendars days from the day on which you acquire the lot. iii. If you cancel the contract, we will reimburse all payments received from you. As Dawsons are unable to provide a postage or packing service, the cost of the initial delivery or collection is not returnable.
