109 has this:
Notwithstanding the provisions of section 106 (3), the owner of a particular
copy or phonorecord lawfully made under this title, or any person authorized
by such owner, is entitled, without the authority of the copyright owner, to
sell or otherwise dispose of the possession of that copy or phonorecord.
That's first sale (and notice it doesn't actually require the copy be sold
for money).
