LiveAuction.TV – INSTRUCTIONS

We will then proceed to sell each lot using either a 30 or 45 second bidding clock until all lots are sold. Meaning once the pre announced time has expired without a bid that bull will be considered sold to the last highest bidder. A sale order will be posted 9:00 AM

Monday March 9, 2015. If you don’t have computer access, phone in bids will be accepted at these numbers (613)229-1073 or (306)903-7289. Consignors will also help take bids off line. Be sure to register early to allow the necessary time to be put in to the system.

HOW TO USE THE LiveAuctions.TV SITE: After opening the LiveAuctions.TV site, scroll down the left side to the starting date of our Genuine Genetics Galloway Sale, which is March 4th. To get to the screen to see our flier & catalogue, left click on the title for our sale: Genuine Genetics Online Galloways Bull Sale. Close any pop up ads hiding this screen. This is the same screen to register as a bidder. Please register ahead of time to avoid any problems. If you have trouble or concerns at this stage please call any of the LiveAuctions.TV staff, numbers below.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE:

· In order to participate in the online auction you will need to pre-register and obtain a buyer number. · To do this, go to the LiveAuctions website, www.liveauctions.tv, and select Genuine Genetics Galloway Online Bull Sale. · After logging in the buyer registration form should pop up automatically. If it doesn’t there is a link you can select that says, “register for a buyer number” which is located right under your name in the

top right hand corner. · This form requires you to fill out your banks name, city, province, phone number and a contact. You may register to bid after bidding has opened but please remember that authorization to bid is not instantaneous.

HOW THE AUCTION WORKS: Once you have a username and have received a buyer number then you are ready to bid. You will see a screen that is unique to your user ID. There will be a list containing the sale lots. If you click on a lot the video clip or photo will be displayed to the right. The next bid, current price, proxy bid, and manual bid buttons will be displayed below the video area. This page will react to your bids by stating, “you are in” or “you are out”.

· No one else will be able to see your bid – that data is not accessible to the public. · Each time you login, the auction screen will display your personal bidding information. Your auction screen is unique and private displaying your activity to only you. Remember that you must have

the lot that you are bidding on selected. This is where it tells you if you are in or out. It is here where you can also see your proxy bid settings(as applicable).

WHAT IS A PROXY BID? With a proxy bid you can enter your maximum bid and then sit back and watch. When you enter a proxy bid amount the LiveAuctions system automatically bids on your behalf up to your maximum bid. If the lot closes out for less than your maximum, that’s all you pay. This means that you don’t have to keep coming back to re-bid every time another bid is placed. This makes it more convenient and less time consuming. It can also greatly assist those breeders that can’t be near a computer or are busy with other duties at the time of the final bidding.

Your maximum amount is kept confidential from other bidders and the seller. Even though you can see this amount on your screen no one else can. The LiveAuctions system compares your bid to those of the other registered bidders and the system automatically places bids on your behalf, using only as much of your bid as is necessary to maintain your high bid position. The system will bid only up to your maximum amount as necessary to maintain you as the high bidder. If another bidder has a higher maximum, you’ll be outbid and the system will tell you that “YOU’RE OUT”. But, if no other bidder has a higher maximum you win the final bid.

The final close out bidding process: After each sale we receive a few calls after the sale from breeders who were interested in bidding on a bull but failed to watch the bidding clock and let the bidding time expire. When the bidding starts The bidding clock will run for a pre announced time (usually 30 or 45 seconds or until there is a bid at which time the clock will rewind to its original 30 or 45 seconds. (Whatever time used will be preannounced).

For example: if the bidding clock gets down to 1 second remaining then a higher bid is submitted, the clock will then restart. This rewind process will continue with each bid received until the allotted time elapses without a bid. Then the lot will be considered sold. So if you are interested in a particular heifer be sure to submit your bid while there is still time on the clock. This is where using the proxy bid can come in handy insuring you do not miss a bid!
