Terms & Conditions

 
 
The following Terms and Conditions of Sale, as amended by any posted notices or oral announcements by the Sale Agent or Auctioneer prior to or during the auction, constitutes the entire agreement between the bidders at the auction. On the other hand, each consignee has the legal right to convey good title to the said Embryo Right/Unborn Foal. IntArah LLC makes no representations or warranties whatsoever to any bidders or to any successful buyer, and shall have no obligations or liabilities to any bidder or buyer, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall bear no liability to any party as a result of any breaches of representations, warranties or legal duties or responsibilities of IntArah LLC. 

EMBRYO/PROSPECTIVE FOAL:
Once Consignor’s Lot has been sold they are relieved of all obligations other than those stated in Paragraph 7 and the purchasing party obtains full responsibility for the Lot purchased. Should the consigned foal not be created at time of auction, Consignor is still responsible for all expenses and costs to produce said foal. The Buyer agrees that at no point, can the Sire or Dam be changed to anything other than what is specifically listed and sold by The IntArah Group LLC. Once the recipient mare reaches 42 days of gestation, and a signed Pregnancy Verification Form is returned to the IntArah Group, LLC, it is then that the Consignor is relieved of his or her responsibilities. Should Consignor wish to breed his or her mare to carry a foal after an embryo has been recovered for the IntArah Dream Embryo Auction, Consignor must guarantee that the recipient mare reaches 42 days of gestation, at which time the Purchaser of the embryo may secure insurance for the Lot. Consignor agrees to assign signature authority for the Purchase Agreement to a representative of the IntArah Group, LLC on their behalf as acting agent for the Consignor/Selling party. All embryos must be produced and recipient mare(s) confirmed in foal with a signed 42 day pregnancy verification letter by a licensed veterinarian by December 31, 2020 or the consignor agrees to return the full purchase amount to purchaser.

EMBRYO RIGHT:
The Buyer is responsible for all veterinary expenses associated with the embryo transfer procedure including costs of recipient mare to host future made foal, all of which is payable directly to the veterinarian. Buyer is guaranteed a minimum of 3 (three) consecutive breeding cycles per season for 2 (two) consecutive seasons to retrieve an embryo. If more than “1” embryo is conceived, collected and successfully transferred, Buyer shall be the owner of only one successful transferred embryo. Consignor will be responsible for all costs associated with the second successful embryo transfer. The consignor will make available to the Buyer the “The Donor Mare” to produce the foal from the purchased embryo right. The right to an embryo transfer of the Consignor’s Mare by the purchaser does not constitute a guarantee to a live foal from the Mare by the Consignor, but does guarantee a wide variety of options to insure and protect your investment through C. Jarvis Insurance Agency. Please see the insurance paragraph listed in part 2 of Terms and Conditions. If “The Donor Mare,” sells before a confirmed pregnancy of the recipient Mare, Consignor agrees to transfer the agreements in this consignment form to the new Mare owner. All embryos must be produced and recipient mare(s) confirmed in foal with a signed 42 day pregnancy verification letter by a licensed veterinarian by December 31, 2020 or the consignor agrees to return the full purchase amount to purchaser.
