As an exception to the provisions of the preceding two paragraphs, in case the author, the author's heirs or whomever validly represents them requests such payment from “Cabral Moncada Leilões” before payment has been made to the seller, the seller expressly authorizes “Cabral Moncada Leilões” to deduct the amount due in respect of the resale right from the net amount which would be due under Article 13.

ART. 16 - The seller further authorizes “Cabral Moncada Leilões” to deduct any amounts owed by the said seller as a buyer of other items from the net amount which would be due under Article 13, operating, to that extent, the applicable set-off.
