The Mortgagee and all parties for whom the Auctioneer may be acting shall not be liable for any reason whatsoever as to the accuracy of description of the listed premises, the bounds, area involved, building and or buildings, taxes and encumbrances of every name and nature.

The Purchaser shall deposit the required deposit with the Auctioneer. Failure on the part of the Purchaser to execute a Memorandum of Sale after the premises are sold to him/her or failure on the part of the Purchaser to perform within the specified time, as stated here today, will result in a forfeiture of deposits as liquidated damages and not as a penalty for not completing this sale.

The Purchaser is buying subject to "GUARANTEED PERFORMANCE" of the amount bid and entered on the Memorandum of Sale. Guaranteed performance is understood to mean that in the event of default, by Purchaser, necessitating a resale at public auction for any lesser amount, Purchaser will pay the difference between his/her bid and that of the resale bid, if any, and further agrees to pay all costs of collecting said deficiency, if such is needed, to include reasonable attorneys fees, court costs and witness fees. The Purchaser shall have no claim to any excess that may be created by a resale.

In the event that the Purchaser at the foreclosure sale shall default in the purchase of the within described property according to the terms of this Notice of Sale and/or the terms of the Memorandum of Sale executed at the time of the foreclosure, the Mortgagee reserves the right to sell the property by Foreclosure Deed to the penultimate bidder provided that the penultimate bidder shall deposit with Mortgagee's attorneys, Bacon & Wilson, P.C., the amount of the required deposit as set forth herein within three (3) business days after written notice of default of the previous highest bidder and title shall be conveyed to said penultimate bidder within twenty (20) days of said written notice.

The Purchaser agrees to accept as full settlement the refund of such deposit and to create no liability against the Mortgagee, the Auctioneer and all parties involved in this sale.

The Auctioneer reserves the following:
