Successors. The rights and obligations of the Company under the Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the successors and assigns of the Company.

Successors. The Company will require any successor or assign (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Executive, expressly, absolutely and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession or assignment had taken place. Any failure of the Company to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession or assignment shall be a material breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Executive to terminate the Executive’s employment for Good Reason and receive the compensation provided for in Paragraph 3 above (subject to compliance with the notice and cure provisions set forth in the definition of “Good Reason”). As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor or assign to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this Paragraph 8 or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by operation of law.

Successors. This Award Agreement, including but not limited to the restrictive covenants described in [Sections 19 and 20]0] below, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor or successors of the Corporation.

Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, any successor or successors of the Company and the person or entity to whom the RSUs may have been transferred by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or beneficiary designation. All terms and conditions of this Agreement imposed upon the Participant shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, be deemed, in the event of the Participant’s death, to refer to and be binding upon the Participant’s heirs and beneficiaries.

Successors. The Award Terms shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns, on the one hand, and the Participant and his or her heirs, beneficiaries, legatees and personal representatives, on the other hand.

Successors. This Agreement shall bind any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be obligated under this Agreement if no succession had taken place. In the case of any transaction in which a successor would not, by the foregoing provision or by operation of law, be bound by this Agreement, the Corporation shall require such successor expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. This Agreement may not be assigned by Executive but shall inure to the benefit of Executive, his heirs and personal representatives.

Assignment. No TRA Party is permitted to assign, sell, transfer, pledge, delegate, or otherwise dispose of any interest, right or obligation under this Agreement without the prior written approval of the Board (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that to the extent Company Units are transferred in accordance with the terms of the Company LLC Agreement, the transferring TRA Party shall assign to the transferee of such Company Units the transferring TRA Party’s rights under this Agreement as long as such transferee has executed and delivered or, in connection with such transfer, executes and delivers, a Joinder agreeing to become a “TRA Party” for all purposes of this Agreement.

Assignment. To the extent any Work Product has not automatically vested in the Company by operation of law, Executive hereby irrevocably conveys, transfers and assigns to the Company all right, title and interest in and to all Work Product, including the right to receive all past, present and future proceeds and damages therefrom, and the right to claim priority with respect thereto. If any Work Product cannot be assigned by Executive to the Company (such as any “moral rights of authors”), Executive hereby irrevocably and perpetually waives Executive’s right to assert such rights and consents to any action of the Company that would violate such rights in the absence of such consent. When requested, Executive will (without additional compensation, but at Company’s expense) execute any documents or instruments lawfully requested by the Company to formally convey and transfer ownership of any Work Product and assist the Company and its designee and take all actions to evidence, secure, prosecute, obtain, protect, enforce or defend the Work Product for the Company’s benefit. Executive appoints the Company as Executive’s agent and grants the Company a power of attorney for the limited purpose of executing all such documents and to do all other lawful acts that the Company is entitled to require Executive to do pursuant to this [Section 5(a)]. The foregoing appointment is deemed to be coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable. This Agreement does not apply to, and Executive has no obligation to assign to the Company, an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility, or trade secret information of the Company was used and which was developed entirely on my own time, unless # the invention directly relates # to the business of the Company, or # to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research and development, or # the invention results from any work performed by Executive for the Company.

Assignment. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the heirs, successors, representatives, and assigns of each party, but no rights, obligations, or liabilities of either Party under this Agreement shall be assignable without the prior written consent of the other Party.

Assignment. No party hereto may assign either this Letter Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on the Sponsor, each of the Insiders and each of their respective successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns and permitted transferees.
