3. CATALOGUE DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION OF PROPERTY
Lots are sold subject to the Authorship Warranty, as described in the catalogue (unless such description is changed or supplemented, as provided in Paragraph 1 above) and in thecondition that they are in at the time of the sale on the following basis.
(a) The knowledge of Phillips in relation to each lot is partially dependent on information provided to us by the seller, and Phillips is not able to and does not carry out exhaustive due
diligence on each lot Prospective buyers acknowledge this fact and accept responsibility for carrying out inspections and investigations to satisfy themselves as to the lots in which
they may be interested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we shall exercise such reasonable care whenmaking express statements in catalogue descriptions or condition reports as
is consistent with our role as auctioneer of lots in this sale and in light of (i) the information provided to us by the seller, (ii) scholarship and technical knowledge and (iii) the generally
accepted opinions of relevant experts, in each case at the time any such express statement is made.
(b) Each lot offered for sale at Phillips is available for inspection by prospective buyers prior to the auction. Phillips accepts bids on lots on the basis that bidders (and independent
experts on their behalf, to the extent appropriate given the nature and value of the lot and the bidder’s own expertise) have fully inspected the lot prior to bidding and have satisfied
themselves as to both the condition of the lot and the accuracy of its description.
(c) Prospective buyers acknowledge that many lots are of an age and type which means that they are not in perfect condition. As a courtesy to clients, Phillips may prepare andprovide condition reports to assist prospective buyers when they are inspecting lots. Catalogue descriptions and condition reports may make reference to particular imperfectionsof a lot, but bidders should note that lots may have other faults not expressly referred to in the catalogue or condition report All dimensions are approximate. Illustrations are for
identification purposes only and cannot be used as precise indications of size or to convey full information as to the actual condition of lots.
(d) Information provided to prospective buyers in respect of any lot, including any pre-sale estimate, whether written or oral, and information in any catalogue, condition or otherreport, commentary or valuation, is not a representation of fact but rather a statement of opinion held by Phillips. Any pre-sale estimate may not be relied on as a prediction of theselling price or value of the lot and may be revised from time to time by Phillips at our absolute discretion. Neither Phillips nor any of our affiliated companies shall be liable for any
difference between the pre-sale estimates for any lot and the actual price achieved at auction or upon resale.

4. BIDDING AT AUCTION(a) Phillips has absolute discretion to refuse admission to the auction or participation in the sale. All bidders must register for a paddle prior to bidding, supplying such information
and references as required by Phillips.
(b) As a convenience to bidders who cannot attend the auction in person, Phillips may, if so instructed by the bidder, execute written absentee bids on a bidder’s behalf. Absentee
bidders are required to submit bids on the ‘Absentee Bid Form’, a copy of which is printed in this catalogue or otherwise available from Phillips. Bids must be placed in the currencyof the sale. The bidder must clearly indicate the maximum amount he or she intends to bid, excluding the buyer’s premium. The auctioneer will not accept an instruction to executean absentee bid which does not indicate such maximum bid. Our staff will attempt to execute an absentee bid at the lowest possible price taking into account the reserve and otherbidders. Any absentee bid must be received at least 24 hours in advance of the sale. In the event of identical bids, the earliest bid received will take precedence.
(c) Telephone bidders are required to submit bids on the ‘Telephone Bid Form’, a copy of which is printed in this catalogue or otherwise available from Phillips. Telephone bidding isavailable for lots whose low pre-sale estimate is at least HK$8,000. Phillips reserves the right to require written confirmation of a successful bid from a telephone bidder by fax orotherwise immediately after such bid is accepted by the auctioneer. Telephone bids may be recorded and, by bidding on the telephone, a bidder consents to the recording of theconversation.
(d) Bidders may participate in an auction by bidding online through Phillips’s online live bidding platform available on our website at www.phillips.com. To bid online, bidders mustregister online at least 24 hours before the start of the auction. Online bidding is subject to approval by Phillips’s bid department in our sole discretion. As noted in Paragraph 3
above, Phillips encourages online bidders to inspect prior to the auction any lot(s) on which they may bid, and condition reports are available upon request Bidding in a live auction
can progress quickly. To ensure that online bidders are not placed at a disadvantage when bidding against bidders in the room or on the telephone, the procedure for placing bids
through Phillips’s online bidding platform is a one-step process. By clicking the bid button on the computer screen, a bidder submits a bid. Online bidders acknowledge and agree
that bids so submitted are final and may not under any circumstances be amended or retracted. During a live auction, when bids other than online bids are placed, they will be
displayed on the online bidder’s computer screen as ‘floor’ bids. ‘Floor’ bids include bids made by the auctioneer to protect the reserve. In the event that an online bid and a ‘floor’or ‘phone’ bid are identical, the ‘floor’ bid may take precedence at the auctioneer’s discretion. The next bidding increment is shown for the convenience of online bidders in thebid button. The bidding increment available to online bidders may vary from the next bid actually taken by the auctioneer, as the auctioneer may deviate from Phillips’s standard
increments at any time at his or her discretion, but an online bidder may only place a bid in a whole bidding increment. Phillips’s bidding increments are published in the Guide for
Prospective Buyers.
(e) When making a bid, whether in person, by absentee bid, on the telephone or online, a bidder accep ts personal liability to pay the purchase price, as described more fully inParagraph 6 (a) below, plus all other applicable charges.
(f) By registering and participating in the auction, whether in person, by absentee bid, on the telephone or online, bidders represent, warrant and confirm that (i) unless otherwise
expressly agreed in writing with Phillips prior to the auction, they are bidding on their behalf and not on behalf of anyone else; (ii) they will be paying the Purchase Price from theirown funds; (iii) that their participation in the auction and payment of the Purchase Price is lawful and shall not breach any applicable sanction laws; (iv) they are not resident or
located in a sanctioned jurisdiction including but not limited to Russia, Belarus, Iran and North Korea; and (v) any bids placed by them, or on their behalf, are not the product of any

collusive or other anti-competitive agreement and are not otherwise breach of any app licable law, Government sanctions and other regulatory measures in force from time to time.
(g) Arranging absentee, telephone and online bids is a free service provided by Phillips to prospective buyers. While we undertake to exercise reasonable care in undertaking suchactivity, we cannot accept liability for failure to execute such bids except where such failure is caused by our willful misconduct.
(h) * Premium Lots
Lots with the symbol[*] are Premium Lots. To bid on Premium Lots prospective buyers must complete and satisfy Phillips’ Premium Lot pre-registration procedure no later than 24hours before the start of the Auction session in which the Lot is offered. Premium Lot paddles will be issued to bidders who complete and satisfy the Premium Lot pre­registration
procedure. The Auctioneer will only accept bids from Premium Lot paddles in respect of Premium Lots. Please contact the department organizing the auction for further details.
(i) Employees of Phillips and our affiliated companies, including the auctioneer, may bid at the auction by placing absentee bids so long as they do not know the reserve whensubmitting their absentee bids and otherwise comply with our employee bidding procedures.

5. CONDUCT OF THE AUCTION(a) Unless otherwise indicated by the symbol •, each lot is offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum selling price agreed by Phillips with the seller. The reserve
will not exceed the low pre-sale estimate at the time of the auction.
(b) The auctioneer has discretion at any time to refuse any bid, withdraw any lot, re-offer a lot for sale (including after the fall of the hammer) if he or she believes there may be error
or dispute and take such other action as he or she deems reasonably appropriate. Phillips shall have no liability whatsoever for any such action taken by the auctioneer. If any dispute
arises after the sale, our sale record is conclusive. The auctioneer may accept bids made by a company affiliated with Phillips provided that the bidder does not know the reserve
placed on the lot.
(c) The auctioneer will commence and advance the bidding at levels and in increments he or she considers appropriate. In order to protect the reserve on any lot, the auctioneer may
place one or more bids on behalf of the seller up to the reserve without indicating he or she is doing so, either by placing consecutive bids or bids in response to other bidders. If a lot
is offered without reserve, unless there are already competing absentee bids, the auctioneer will generally open the bidding at 50% of the lot’s low pre-sale estimate. In the absenceof a bid at that level, the auctioneer will proceed backwards at his or her discretion until a bid is recognized and will then advance the bidding from that amount. Absentee bids on
no reserve lots will, in the absence of a higher bid, be executed at approximately 50% of the low pre-sale estimate or at the amount of the bid if it is less than 50% of the low pre-saleestimate. If there is no bid whatsoever on a no reserve lot, the auctioneer may deem such lot unsold.
(d) The sale will be conducted in Hong Kong dollars and payment is due in Hong Kong dollars. For the benefit of international clients, pre-sale estimates in the auction catalogue may
be shown in US dollars and/or euros and, if so, will reflect approximate exchange rates. Accordingly, estimates in US dollars or euros should be treated only as a guide. If a currency
converter is operated during the sale, it is done so as a courtesy to bidders, but Phillips accepts no responsibility for any errors in currency conversion calculation.
(e) Subject to the auctioneer’s reasonable discretion, the highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be the buyer and the striking of the hammer marks the acceptance of thehighest bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the seller and the buyer. Risk and responsibility for the lot passes to the buyer as set forth in Paragraph 7 below.
(f) If a lot is not sold, the auctioneer will announce that it has been ‘passed’, ‘withdrawn’, ‘returned to owner’ or ‘bought-in’.
(g) Any post-auction sale of lots offered at auction shall incorporate these Conditions of Sale and Authorship Warranty as if sold in the auction.

6. PURCHASE PRICE AND PAYMENT(a) The buyer agrees to pay us, in addition to the hammer price of the lot, the buyer’s premium, plus any applicable taxes and charges (the ‘Purchase Price’). The buyer’s premium is
27% of the hammer price up to and including HK$7,500,000, 21% of the portion of the hammer price above HK$7,500,000 up to and including HK$50,000,000 and 14.5% of the
portion of the hammer price above HK$50,000,000. Phillips reserves the right to pay from our compensation an introductory commission to one or more third parties for assistingin the sale of property offered and sold at auction.
(b) Unless otherwise agreed, a buyer is required to pay for a purchased lot immediately following the auction regardless of any intention to obtain an export or import license orother permit for such lot. Payments must be made by the invoiced party in Hong Kong dollars by wire transfer in accordance with the bank transfer details provided on the invoice
for purchased lots.
(c) As a courtesy to clients, Phillips will accept American Express, Visa, MasterCard and China Union Pay to pay for invoices of HK$800,000 or less per auction.
(d) Title in a purchased lot will not pass until Phillips has received the Purchase Price for that lot in cleared funds. Phillips is not obliged to release a lot to the buyer until title in the lot
has passed and appropriate identification has been provided, and any earlier release does not affect the passing of title or the buyer’s unconditional obligation to pay the Purchase
Price.

7. COLLECTION OF PROPERTY(a) Phillips will not release a lot to the buyer until we have received payment of its Purchase Price in full in cleared funds, the buyer has paid all outstanding amounts due to Phillips
or any of our affiliated companies, including any charges payable pursuant to Paragraph 8 (a) below, and the buyer has satisfied such other terms as we in our sole discretion shallrequire, including providing information and documentation we require to satisfy our customer due diligence and verification checks for Know Your Customer compliance purposesand completing any anti-money laundering, anti-terrorism financing and sanction checks.

is in default of payment, to pledge the buyer’s property in our possession by actual or constructive delivery to our affiliated company as security for the payment of any outstanding
amount due. Phillips will notify the buyer if the buyer’s property has been delivered to an affiliated company by way of pledge.

and warranties or the Authorship Warranty or an adverse claim is made by a third party. Upon notice of Phillips election to rescind the sale, the buyer will promptly return the lot toPhillips, and we will then refund the Purchase Price paid to us. As described more fully in Paragraph 14 below, the refund shall constitute the sole remedy and recourse of the buyer
against Phillips and the seller with respect to such rescinded sale.

11. EXPORT, IMPORT AND ENDANGERED SPECIES LICENCES AND PERMITS
Before bidding for any property, prospective buyers are advised to make their own enquiries as to whether a licence is required to export a lot from the United Kingdom or to importit into another country.
Prospective buyers are advised that some countries prohibit the import of property made of or incorporating plant or animal material, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone,
Brazilian rosewood, rhinoceros horn or tortoiseshell, irrespective of age, percentage or value.
Accordingly, prior to bidding, prospective buyers considering export of purchased lots should familiarise themselves with relevant export and import regulations of the countries
concerned. Please note that the US prohibits the importation of any item containing African elephant ivory. Asian elephant ivory may be imported in to the US only if accompanied
by independent scientific analysis of continent of origin and confirmation the object is more than 100 years old.
With regard to any item containing endangered species other than elephant ivory, an importer into the US must provide documented evidence of the species identification andage of an object in order to demonstrate that the item qualifies as an antique. This will require the buyer to obtain an independent appraisal certifying the species of endangeredmaterial on the object and certifying that the object is not less than 100 years of age. A prospective buyer planning to import an object containing endangered species into the US
may not rely on Phillips cataloguing to establish the species of endangered material on the object or to establish the age of the object and must consult with a qualified independent
appraiser prior to placing a bid on the lot.
It is solely the buyer’s responsibility to comply with these laws and to obtain any necessary export, import and endangered species licences or permits. Failure to obtain a licence or
permit or delay in so doing will not justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making full payment for the lot. As a courtesy to clients, Phillips has marked in the catalogue lots
containing potentially regulated plant or animal material, but we do not accept liability for errors or for failing to mark lots containing protected or regulated species.
Export, Import, Sales and/or Use Taxes
Buyers should note that they are responsible for all charges, duties and taxes related to the exportation and importation of lots shipped by them or shipped on their behalf, including
any applicable Sales and/or Use Taxes which may be due on importing the property to the United States.
Export and Import Bans and Restrictions
Buyers should note that the export of items offered for sale in this Auction to certain countries (including Russia and Belarus) may be prohibited pursuant to Government sanctions
and other regulatory measures in force from time to time.
Please contact the department organising the auction for further details.

12. US SHIPMENTS AND IMPORTS
Customs Tariffs
Buyers intending to import property into the United States of America should note that US Customs may charge an additional import duty upon the importation of (i) products
manufactured or created in mainland China and (ii) printed materials (including photographs, prints, lithographs, books and designs) printed in the UK or Germany.
Phillips will mark with a symbol lots which may be subject to additional US import tariffs, where this is known to us. Please note, however, that any such markings are done by us only
as a convenience to bidders. Phillips does not accept liability for errors including failing to mark lots accurately or for the absence of any marking.
