2. RMS Receiving Motor Car(s) or Any Other Lot(s) in Trust. The consigned motor car(s) or any other lot(s) are delivered to RMS in trust under the exact terms set forth in this agreement.

3. Services. RMS agrees to act as an agent for the Consignor(s) and provide auction services including, but not limited to, a sale facility, clerks, support staff, event advertising, and promotion. In connection with the auction, RMS will have absolute discretion with regard to the motor car(s) and any other lot(s) or any RMS auction as to (a) consulting any expert either before or after the sale, (b) researching the provenance, (c) grouping and providing catalogue and other descriptions as may be appropriate, (d) marketing and promotion of the sale, and (e) any other services required to conduct the sale.

Further, the Consignor(s) acknowledges that RMS will collect a Buyers’ Premium from the Buyer(s) of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) in question based on the last accepted bid on the motor car(s) or any other lot(s). Please note that the Buyers’ Premium may be subject to change at the discretion of RMS if the standard Buyers’ Premium for the auction changes. To be clear, the Buyers’ Premium on the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) will not be different from the Buyers’ Premium for other motor car lot(s) or any other lot(s) in the auction.
5. Proceeds to Consignor(s).
5.1 As an accommodation to the Consignor(s), RMS agrees to act as an intermediary between the Consignor(s) and the Buyer(s) by accepting the purchase price from the Buyer(s), transferring the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) to the Buyer(s), and delivering the amounts due to the Consignor(s) under this agreement. If the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) are sold by RMS during the term of this agreement, the money due to the Consignor(s) shall be disbursed within twenty (20) business days after the sale provided the purchase price, applicable commissions, and fees have been received by RMS, in accordance with the terms of this agreement.
5.2 As used in this agreement, a “sale” occurs between the Consignor(s) and Buyer(s) when the hammer or equivalent device or mechanism drops on the last accepted bid or when the auctioneer awards the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) to the highest Bidder(s).

5.6 If RMS has reason to believe or is notified that the Consignor(s)’ breach or alleged breach of the Contractual Obligations or Consignor(s)’ action could potentially cause RMS liability (“dispute”), RMS, at its sole discretion, may withhold payment to the Consignor(s) until the dispute has been resolved; further, RMS may deduct any sums that are due to it from the sum held.
6. Exclusivity.
6.1 The Consignor(s) grants to RMS the exclusive right and authority to advertise and sell the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) for a period beginning with the date of this agreement and ending sixty (60) business days following the auction.

6.1.2 If the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) do not sell at auction, the Consignor(s) grants RMS the authority to list the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) for sale on RMS’ private sales website and advertise in other mediums at RMS’ discretion the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) for sale up to sixty (60) days after the auction.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentences, if RMS has paid any portion of the purchase price to the Consignor(s), but the purchase price has not been collected from the Buyer(s) of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s), the Consignor(s) hereby agrees, simultaneously with such payment, to assign to RMS any and all rights that the Consignor(s) may have against such Buyer(s) to the extent of such payment, whether at law, in equity, or under the Contractual Obligations. The Consignor(s) agrees to execute any documents reasonably necessary to evidence this assignment, including, with respect to the Consignor(s)’ representations, warranties, and indemnities set forth in this agreement.

15. Estimates and Catalogue Descriptions. Any pre-sale estimates are intended as guides for prospective Bidder(s). RMS makes no representation or warranty of the anticipated selling price of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s), and no estimate anywhere by RMS of the selling price of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) may be relied upon as a prediction of the actual selling price.

The Consignor(s) acknowledges that RMS will not be liable for any errors or omissions in the catalogue or other descriptions of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s), and these descriptions make no guarantees, representations, or warranties whatsoever to the Consignor(s) with respect to the motor car(s) or any other lot(s), their attribution, legal title, condition, value, or other characteristics.

17.1 The reserve price(s) noted in the fillable section of the Auction Consignment Agreement is the lowest bid acceptable to the Consignor(s). The reserve(s) may be lowered at any time by the Consignor(s), either verbally or in writing, but they may not be raised. The reserve(s) do not include commissions to RMS. RMS has the right to sell the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) at a price below the agreed verbal or written reserve(s) provided that the Consignor(s) receives the same net proceeds as the Consignor(s) would have received had the reserve(s) been met. If no reserve(s), indicate clearly by writing “NONE” in the space provided in the fillable section of the Auction Consignment Agreement.
17.2 If RMS contributes to the hammer price to meet the reserve(s), the reserve(s) for the respective motor car(s) or any other lot(s) become the hammer price plus RMS’ contribution for purposes of commissions.
18. Insurance. The Consignor(s) will be responsible for maintaining adequate property insurance on the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) at all times, and this insurance must be at least equal to the aggregate low pre-sale auction estimate for the motor car(s) or any other lot(s), which in each case shall include insurance for damages to the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) and shall not be cancellable by the insurance company until after ownership and Title(s) have passed to the Buyer(s) and the Buyer(s) have taken possession of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) from RMS. RMS does not maintain insurance with respect to the Consignor(s)’ motor car(s) or any other lot(s), but RMS does carry Garage Keeper’s Insurance to cover RMS employees’ acts of gross negligence while the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) are in the care, custody, and control of RMS. With the exception of RMS’ employees’ acts of gross negligence, the Consignor(s) agrees that RMS and its respective affiliates and agents will not be responsible for, and the Consignor(s) releases RMS and its respective affiliates, agents, and warehouses from, any and all liability for loss of, theft of, or damage to the motor car(s) or any other lot(s).
19. Withdrawn Motor Car(s) or Any Other Lot(s).

19.2 If the Consignor(s) withdraws one or more of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) from the auction after the signing of this agreement, the Consignor(s) will pay RMS the Buyers’ Premium and Sellers’ Commission that would have been due under this agreement, had the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) met (i) their reserve(s), (ii) if offered without reserve(s) then the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) published low estimate(s), or (iii) if no published low estimate(s), then the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) fair market value as determined by RMS, by five PM (5:00 p.m.) of the next business day following the auction.
20. Legal Action.
20.1 These Conditions (and any dispute or claim relating to them or their subject matter, their enforceability, or their termination (including non-contractual claims)) are to be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.
20.2 The courts of England and Wales shall have jurisdiction to settle any claim, dispute, or issue whether arising out of or in connection with these Conditions or otherwise (including non-contractual claims). In the case of a dispute which is the subject of a claim by RMS, such jurisdiction shall be non-exclusive. In any other case, such jurisdiction shall be exclusive, and the Buyer(s) and Consignor(s) agree that it will not institute proceedings in the courts of the country other than England and Wales.
21. Marketing Fee. The marketing fee is non-refundable and is not credited toward the sales commission.
22. Bidding Restrictions. The Consignor(s) hereby agrees not to bid on his/her/their motor car(s) or any other lot(s). Although the auctioneer shall be entitled to bid on the Consignor(s)’ behalf up to the amount of the reserve(s) (if applicable), the Consignor(s) shall neither instruct nor permit any other person to bid on behalf of the Consignor(s) for his/her/their motor car(s) or any other lot(s). If, however, in violation of the foregoing, the Consignor(s) (or his or her agent) bids on his/her/their motor car(s) or any other lot(s) and becomes the successful Bidder(s), the expenses, entry fee, repair expenses, Buyers’ Premium, and Sellers’ Commission on the hammer price shall be payable by the Consignor(s). If the Consignor(s) does not pay in accordance with this clause, his/her/their motor car(s) or any other lot(s) may be sold without reserve(s).
23. Anti-Freeze is the Responsibility of the Consignor(s).
23.1 As the Consignor(s)’ motor car(s) or any other lot(s) could be shipped to a location where below freezing temperatures are a possibility, it is the Consignor(s)’ responsibility to ensure that within the last six (6) months they have winterized their motor car(s) or any other lot(s) for shipping in freezing temperatures. Winterizing one or more of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) means that the Consignor(s) has completely filled and properly mixed, at a minimum, negative twenty degrees Fahrenheit rated (-20°F) anti-freeze into their motor car(s) or any other lot(s) radiator(s).
23.2 If any damage occurs because the Consignor(s) did not properly winterize their motor car(s) or any other lot(s), it will be the Consignor(s)’ responsibility to cover the damages, and RMS may recap these damages from the Consignor(s)’ settlement. If it is found that the Consignor(s) did not properly winterize their motor car(s) or any other lot(s), the associated costs with checking, filling, and disposing the anti-freeze will be recapped from the Consignor(s)’ settlement; if the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) are not sold, the Consignor(s) must pay RMS before the Consignor(s) can re-take possession of their motor car(s) or any other lot(s). If already settled, the Consignor(s) must pay RMS directly.
24. Entire Agreement. This document contains the entire agreement between the parties and shall be binding upon them and their respective heirs, personal representatives, and assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this agreement shall not be modified, except in writing. Whenever used in this agreement, as the contract requires, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural number shall include the singular, the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter, the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter, and the neuter gender shall include the masculine and feminine.
25. No Legal or Tax Advice. This agreement is an important legal document. The Consignor(s) acknowledges that the Consignor(s) has had the opportunity to consult an attorney before signing this agreement and has signed this agreement after having the opportunity to consult with an attorney of their own choosing. Notwithstanding any references to any transactions or arrangements in this agreement, or any contemporaneous written, oral, or implied understandings of the Parties relating to the subject matter of this agreement, RMS has not provided legal or tax advice or tax planning services to the Consignor(s) or for the Consignor(s)’ benefit in connection with the transactions contemplated by this agreement, and no one at RMS has acted as the Consignor(s)’ attorney or tax advisor.
26. Money Laundering. The Consignor(s) agrees to provide all information and assistance reasonably requested by RMS to comply with RMS’ internal Anti-Money Laundering process and to comply with any and all Money Laundering Laws and Regulations in force in the jurisdiction in which the auction is held.
27. Photography, Videography, and Illustrations. All photographs, videography, and illustrations commissioned by RMS for the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) are the absolute property of RMS and RMS shall have the absolute right to use the photographs, videography, and illustrations as RMS deems fit.
28. Vehicle Registration Number(s) (if applicable).
28.1 If the Consignor(s) wishes to sell the motor car(s) but retain the right to the registration number(s) of the motor car(s), it is the Consignor(s)’ responsibility to notify RMS in writing.
28.2 It shall be the Consignor(s)’ responsibility to take all necessary steps to ensure that the current motor car(s) registration number(s) is reserved and that a new number is allocated prior to the motor car(s) being sold at the auction, and if the Consignor(s) does not do so RMS shall not be responsible for any loss or damage whatsoever arising out of the sale of the motor car(s) or its registration number(s).
28.3 RMS may, at its discretion (without any assumption of responsibility or duty toward the Consignor(s) or the Buyer(s)), take such steps to facilitate the reservation or transfer of any particular registration number(s) as it thinks fit in order to assist the Consignor(s) or Buyer(s) but strictly on condition that no claim attaches to RMS for taking any such steps whether arising out of RMS’ negligence or any other cause whatsoever.
29. Motor Car(s) or Any Other Lot(s) Under Temporary Import.
29.1 A temporary import bond is used in all European sales. If a motor car(s) or any other lot(s) is brought into Europe from a country outside of Europe, the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) must be placed on either RMS’ bond in the United Kingdom or one of RMS’ nominated custom agencies for Paris, Monaco or Italy. Fees and charges vary from sale to sale, and for some countries this is also determined by the value of the motor car(s) or any other lot(s).
29.2 Motor car(s) or any other lot(s) subject to temporary importation restrictions cannot be discharged from RMS’ custody without the completion of customs procedures and until full payment has been received. Customs charges will be levied appropriately depending on each individual scenario and will be payable directly to the relevant authorities, which RMS will provide the details of as and when necessary.
29.3 If the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) does not sell at auction, the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) must be re-exported to the country of origin, transferred to another temporary bond or alternatively the Consignor(s) must pay any and all relevant taxes if the Consignor(s) would like the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) to remain in Europe. The motor car(s) or any other lot(s) cannot be released from RMS’ care until an option is executed.
29.3.1 Should the Consignor(s) decide for the motor car(s) or any other lot(s) to remain in Europe when purchased, the Buyer(s) is responsible to pay any and all import fees for the motor car(s) or any other lot(s).
