Binding Effect of Bidding
By placing a bid—regardless of whether a signed certification or proof of financial ability has been submitted—the bidder expressly acknowledges and agrees to be legally bound by all terms, conditions, and procedures set forth by Soldasap, LLC. Participation in the auction, whether through in-person, online, or absentee bidding, constitutes the bidder’s full acceptance of all auction terms.

By signing and returning this certification to Soldasap, LLC or its representatives, or by placing a bid in any form, I affirm and certify that I have read, understand, and agree to be bound by all published terms and conditions of the auction.

Auction Agreement
1. I acknowledge that this is a confirmation auction, and my offer is subject to seller approval. If I am the successful bidder, I will sign the Agreement of Purchase and Sale immediately upon receipt of notification, which I understand is a legally binding document. If I am bidding on behalf of an LLC or corporation, I understand that the corporation or LLC must be in good standing and must provide the auction company with the Operating Agreement for the LLC or Corporate bylaws for the corporation, specifying that I have the authority to sign on behalf of the entity.
Buyer’s Premium
1. I understand that a ten percent buyer’s premium will be added to my final bid to calculate the total purchase price (Final Bid + 10% = Contract Sales Price).
Agency Representation
1. The Auctioneers represent the Seller only, with no dual agency relationship.
Public Disclosure
1. The purchase price will become public information immediately after the auction and may be published.
Survey Requirement

Post-Auction Clean-Up

Financing Contingency
1. I understand that this contract is not contingent upon obtaining financing, and I am obligated to complete the transaction regardless of my financing status. If I am the high bidder, I agree to provide a certified check for the earnest money deposit of $15,000, made payable to Soldasap, LLC, immediately or no later than 8 Hours after the auction. The buyer's failure to close will result in the forfeiture of the deposit. If I plan to seek financing, I will inform the Auctioneer in writing before signing the auction contract and provide proof of financing before bidding. The seller may or may not, at their sole discretion and with written agreement, extend the closing date to accommodate my financing efforts.
Seller's Rights
1. The seller reserves the right to seek additional damages beyond the forfeited earnest money deposit if I fail to meet my obligations as outlined in this agreement.
Closing Timeline
1. The closing will occur within 45 days of the auction date, with "time being of the essence" unless otherwise agreed.
Auction Conduct
1. The auctioneer has sole discretion over auction conduct, bidding increments, and resolving disputes among bidders. Decisions by the auctioneer are final. Soldasap, LLC is not responsible for missed bids, technical difficulties, or connectivity issues on either the bidder’s side or Soldasap's, LLC’s side. In case of technical difficulties, Soldasap LLC has the right to reopen bidding at its sole discretion.
Announcements
1. Announcements made by John & Tasabah Malone prior to or at the time of sale shall take precedence over any previously printed or published materials. Valid announcements include only those clearly and expressly stated by the auctioneer. For example, such announcements may begin with: “Please note the following change…”, “This supersedes prior materials…”, or “We are making an official correction…”.
2. No implied, assumed, or informal statements—whether written, verbal, or otherwise made by the seller or auction company—shall be considered binding or enforceable.
3. All property details, including but not limited to dimensions, utility access, zoning, and school districts, are provided for reference only and are not guaranteed. It is the Buyer’s responsibility to independently verify all information and perform all due diligence prior to bidding.
Bidding & Bid Assistance
1. Soldasap, LLC, provides a transparent and fair auction environment. In certain situations and at the request of bidders, Soldasap, LLC may assist by placing bids on their behalf. This service does not establish any agency or representation of those bidders. Soldasap, LLC, and its agents also reserve the right to place bids on behalf of clients, customers, or employees. If the auction is advertised as an absolute auction, Soldasap, LLC employees are prohibited from purchasing the property or bidding. Although Soldasap, LLC may bid for a potential buyer, Soldasap, LLC undertakes no obligation to place all requested bids and does not guarantee that such bids will be submitted due to possible timing issues, technical difficulties, prior bids placed by registered bidders & other factors. For a seamless auction experience, bidders are encouraged to monitor their bids directly and to be responsible for placing bids as they see fit. Soldasap, LLC represents the seller.
Note:
1. I am aware that Marknet Alliance & Soldasap, LLC can view all my bids, including my maximum bids, through the backend of their website. Buyers are encouraged to register early and not wait until the last minute to place their bids. Soldasap, LLC represents the seller only. See: Agency Representation disclosure on the website.
Confirmation by Seller
1. This property is sold subject to seller confirmation. Auctioneers have 48 hours post-auction to present the high bid for seller approval. My bid is irrevocable.
Closing Costs
1. The buyer is responsible for all buyer closing costs, and the seller will cover seller closing costs.
Title Insurance and Marketable Title
1. The buyer can review the title insurance commitment before closing. If title issues arise, the seller has at least 30 days to cure them. A marketable title will be provided, and the seller will supply their title insurance. If the seller is unable to provide a Marketable Title, the contract will be declared null and void, and the earnest money or down payment will be returned to the buyer. Buyer's only remedy will be a refund of any earnest money deposit paid.
Taxes and Revenue Stamps
1. Taxes will be prorated to the closing date and paid by the seller. Revenue stamps will be split equally between the buyer and the seller.
Default or Non-Compliance If I am the high bidder and fail to execute the purchase agreement immediately upon notification, or fail to deliver the required earnest money within 24 hours after the seller verbally accepts the contract, I understand that my rights to purchase the property shall be forfeited. The Seller and Auction Company may, at their discretion, reopen bidding or sell the property to another party without further notice. In such event, I agree to pay, and shall be liable for, liquidated damages in an amount equal to 10% of the final bid price, which the parties agree constitutes a reasonable estimate of anticipated damages due to the difficulty of calculating actual losses resulting from the default. This liquidated damages provision applies in the event of a Buyer default, including but not limited to failure to close due to insufficient financing, Buyer’s remorse, or any other cause attributable to the Buyer.
If the Seller is unable or unwilling to provide marketable title, or fails to deliver the agreed-upon title insurance, the Buyer's only remedy will be a refund of any earnest money deposit paid. Seller shall have no further liability to Buyer.
Federal Law

Liability
1. Participation is at my sole risk. Neither the Seller, Auctioneer, their agents, contractors, or employees are liable for my participation.
