Deer Park Road Management Company, LP requests a waiver of the disqualification from relying on Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 that would otherwise result from an impending cease-and-desist order. The order stems from Deer Park's willful violations of Section 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Rule 206(4)-7 regarding the valuation of fund assets, for which Deer Park agreed to pay a $5 million civil money penalty. Deer Park argues that the violations did not involve the offer or sale of securities, were not scienter-based, and that granting the waiver is necessary to avoid disproportionate harm to its private funds and investors.
