    3. submitting of a purchase offer by the Customer and its acceptance by TB.

  3. In case of any doubt, unless the content of the Agreement or the offer states otherwise, the Agreement shall be deemed concluded: 
    1. in the case of paragraph 1(a) – upon the placement of the last signature on the document with the contents of the Agreement;
