Common use of Sale Process Clause in Contracts

Sale Process. Agent shall give the Loan Parties ten (10) Business Days’ written notice (which the Loan Parties agree is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 4.7. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or the portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private auction pursuant to Section 4.7 or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to Section 4.7 made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but Agent shall not incur any liability in the event that any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon notice given in accordance with provisions above. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to Section 4.7, Agent may bid for or purchase for cash, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Loan Party (all such rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and Agent may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Loan Party therefor. For purposes of this Section 4.8, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Loan Party shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and all Obligations (other than Unasserted Contingent Indemnification Claims) are paid in full. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.7 or 4.8 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the Code or its equivalent in other jurisdictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and Lenders hereby acknowledge that any actions taken under this Section 4.8 shall be subject in all respects to the express approval of any Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority required pursuant to any applicable Requirements of Law.
