Securities Collateral Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, Secured Party may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Securities Collateral under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Securities Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private placement may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a sale without such restrictions (including an offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private placement shall not be deemed, in and of itself, to be commercially unreasonable and that Secured Party shall have no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If Secured Party determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Securities Collateral to be sold hereunder from time to time to furnish to Secured Party all such information as Secured Party may request in order to determine the amount of Securities Collateral which may be sold by Secured Party in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.
Possessory Collateral Immediately upon Borrower's receipt of any portion of the Collateral evidenced by an agreement, Instrument or Document, including, without limitation, any Tangible Chattel Paper and any Investment Property consisting of certificated securities, Borrower shall deliver the original thereof to Lender together with an appropriate endorsement or other specific evidence of assignment thereof to Lender (in form and substance acceptable to Lender). If an endorsement or assignment of any such items shall not be made for any reason, Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Borrower's attorney and agent-in-fact, to endorse or assign the same on Borrower's behalf.
