10. When a failed bidding is declared, the sale lot shall be offered in a second auction to be held on the third business day after the first failed auction at the same floor price without need of further advertisement/posting. In case of perishable goods, the second auction shall be conducted on the first business day following the first failed bidding.

11. The sale lots subject of magna scale weighing shall be released only after they have undergone such weighing. Should the result of the magna scale weighing for a particular sale lot differ from the approximate weight of the said sale lot stated in this Notice, the following rules shall take effect:

a. Any weight found in excess of the approximate weight of the contents of those containers subject to magna scale weighing shall not be considered as part of the sale lot offered for auction; provided, however, that in case it is determined that there is excess weight, the winning bidder may purchase the excess weight at the pro-rated bid price per kilo of the winning bidder, provided further that the winning bidder shall purchase the whole weight of the excess articles and indicate his intention to do so within one day from discovery of the excess.

a.1. Pro-rated bid price per kilo shall mean the total bid amount given by the winning bidder during the bidding process divided by the published approximate weight of the sale lot. To compute for the total price to be paid for purchasing the whole sale lot, the formula to be used is as follows:

Total Amount to be Paid = (Bid Price/Approximate Weight) x Actual Weight

To illustrate: Assuming that the winning bid price for Sale Lot 0xx-2015, which has a published approximate weight of 1,872,000 kilograms, is PhP50,000,000.00. If the sale lot, after being subjected to magna scale weighing, is determined to be heavier, say 1,900,000 kilograms, and the winning bidder wishes to acquire the excess, he would have to pay a total of PhP50,747,863.25. The total amount has been arrived at by using the aforesaid formula, thus:

Total Amount to be Paid = (PhP50,000,000.00/1,872,000 kgs) x 1,900,000 kgs

Total Amount to be Paid = PhP 50,747,863.25

a.2. Should the winning bidder decide to purchase the excess weight, he shall pay the amount for the excess weight within five (5) days from demand thereof by the District Collector, or his duly authorized representative; otherwise, the excess quantity shall not be considered to have been sold and shall be offered for sale in the next public auction of the port.

12. In case the quantity determined after the magna scale weighing is less than the approximate weight in this Notice, the winning bidder shall be entitled to a proportionate adjustment of bid amount based on the actual weight. The same formula as illustrated in 11.a.1 shall be used in computing for the adjustment in the bid amount based on the actual weight.

13. Compliance of terms & conditions of the release of cargo by winning bidder like weighing, final counting, etc.

14. Non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of the Notice of Public Auction shall result in the forfeiture of any payments made by the winning bidder without prejudice to the forfeiture of the subject shipments in favor of the Government.
