Private Sales (a) Each Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be compelled, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to conduct any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Interests without registering or qualifying such Pledged Interests under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or any applicable state securities laws in effect at such time. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be made in such manner and under such circumstances as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable in its sole and absolute discretion, including at prices and on terms that might be less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including, without limitation, a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such sale shall not be deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner solely because it was conducted as a private sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to conduct any public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Pledged Interests for the period of time necessary to permit its registration for public sale under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and shall not have any responsibility or liability as a result of its election so not to conduct any such public sales or delay the sale of any Pledged Interests, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until after such registration. Each Pledgor hereby waives any claims against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Interests may have been sold at any private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Interests to more than one offeree.
