Going Private Transactions. During the Restricted Period, none of the Harbinger Parties will, or will permit any other member of the Restricted Group to, make any public announcement with respect to, or submit a proposal for, or offer in respect of (with or without conditions) any transaction or series of transactions that would constitute or result in a Going-Private Transaction, or knowingly encourage or participate in the effort of any other Person to do any of the foregoing, unless such action is specifically requested in writing by the Board with Special Approval prior to the making of such announcement, proposal or offer. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Harbinger Parties will, or will permit any other member of the Restricted Group to, otherwise take any action that would reasonably be expected to compel the Company to make a public announcement regarding, or publicly disclose any intention, plan or arrangement that is inconsistent with the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, and subject to compliance with Section 2.2, nothing in this Section 2.1 shall be construed to apply to a Transfer of Equity Securities to HGI by the Harbinger Parties or any other members of the Restricted Group and no such Transfer shall be deemed to constitute a Going-Private Transaction.
