Exception to Assignments I understand that the provisions of this Agreement requiring assignment of Inventions to the Company do not apply to any invention which qualifies fully under the provisions of California Labor Code Section 2870 (attached hereto as Exhibit B). I will advise the Company promptly in writing of any inventions that I believe meet the criteria in California Labor Code Section 2870 and not otherwise disclosed on Exhibit A.
Consents to Assignment Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any contract, lease, authorization, license or Permit, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto or of the issuing Governmental Entity, as the case may be, would constitute a breach thereof. If a Deferred Consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof would be ineffective or would affect the rights thereunder so that Buyer would not receive all such rights, then, in each such case, (a) the Deferred Item shall be withheld from sale pursuant to this Agreement without any reduction in the Purchase Price, (b) from and after the Closing, Sellers and Buyer will cooperate, in all reasonable respects, to obtain such Deferred Consent as soon as practicable after the Closing, and (c) until such Deferred Consent is obtained, Sellers and Buyer will cooperate, in all reasonable respects, to provide to Buyer the benefits under the Deferred Item to which such Deferred Consent relates (with Buyer entitled to all the gains and responsible for all the losses, Taxes, liabilities and/or obligations thereunder). In particular, in the event that any such Deferred Consent is not obtained prior to the Closing, then Buyer and Seller shall enter into such arrangements (including subleasing or subcontracting if permitted) to provide to the Parties the economic and operational equivalent of obtaining such Deferred Consent and assigning or transferring such contract, lease, authorization, license or Permit, including enforcement for the benefit of Buyer of all claims or rights arising thereunder, and the performance by Buyer of the obligations thereunder on a prompt and punctual basis.
Consent to Assignment The Assignor hereby irrevocably assigns the Agreement in all respects to the Assignee and the Assignee accepts the assignment thereof in all respects.
Conditions to Assignment by Lenders Except as provided herein, each Lender may assign to one or more banks or other entities (but not to any natural person) all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that (a) the Agent, the Issuing Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower shall have each given its prior written consent to such assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and if the Borrower does not respond to any such request for consent within five (5) Business Days, Borrower shall be deemed to have consented (provided that such consent shall not be required for any assignment to another Lender, to a Related Fund, to a lender or an Affiliate of a Lender which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the assigning Lender or to a wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Lender), (b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Commitment in the event an interest in the Revolving Credit Loan is assigned, (c) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined) an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in the form of Exhibit L attached hereto, together with any Notes subject to such assignment, (d) in no event shall any assignment be to any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by the Borrower or any Guarantor or be to a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, (e) such assignee of a portion of the Revolving Credit Loans shall have a net worth or unfunded commitment as of the date of such assignment of not less than $100,000,000.00 (unless otherwise approved by Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower), and (f) such assignee shall acquire an interest in the Loans of not less than $5,000,000.00 and integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (or if less, the remaining Loans of the assignor), unless waived by the Agent, and so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower. Upon execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, (ii) the assigning Lender shall, upon payment to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in §18.2, be released from its obligations under this Agreement arising after the effective date of such assignment with respect to the assigned portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) the Agent may unilaterally amend Schedule 1.1 to reflect such assignment. In connection with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and warrant to the Agent, the assignor and each other Lender as to whether such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control by, the Borrower and/or any Guarantor and whether such assignee is a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans in accordance with its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. Furthermore, in connection with the syndication of the Loan by Agent, the Joint Arrangers, and the Bookrunner, the Borrower agree to assist Agent, the Joint Arrangers, and the Bookrunner actively in achieving a timely syndication that is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, Agent, the Joint Arrangers, and the Bookrunner, such assistance to include, among other things, (i) direct contact during the syndication between the Borrower’s senior officers, representatives and advisors, on the one hand, and prospective Lenders, on the other hand at such times and places as Agent, the Joint Arrangers, or the Bookrunner may reasonably request, (ii) providing to Agent, the Joint Arrangers, and the Bookrunner all financial and other information with respect to the Borrower and the transactions contemplated hereunder that Agent, the Joint Arrangers, or the Bookrunner may reasonably request, including but not limited to financial projections relating to the foregoing, and (iii) assistance in the preparation of a confidential information memorandum and other marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication.

Right to Assign Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to (i) any existing Lender (other than a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender), (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender (other than a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender) or (iii) any other Person (other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, a natural Person or, so long as no Event of Default is then continuing, a Disqualified Institution) with the prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except in connection with a proposed assignment to any Disqualified Institution) of the Administrative Agent, and, as long as no Event of Default is continuing, the prior written consent of the Borrower, and, in the case of any Sale of a Revolving Loan, Letter of Credit or Revolving Loan Commitment, the Revolver Agent and each L/C Issuer that is a Lender (which such consent of L/C Issuer and the Borrower shall be deemed to have been given unless an objection is delivered to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after notice of a proposed Sale is delivered to the Borrower) (each of the Persons described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) being called herein an “Eligible Assignee”); provided, however, that (w) such Sales do not have to be ratable between the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan but must be ratable among the obligations owing to and owed by such Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, (x) for each Loan, the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment) of the Loans, Commitments and Letter of Credit Obligations subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such facility or is made with the prior written consent of the Borrower (to the extent Borrower’s consent is otherwise required) and the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any Sale of a Revolving Loan, Letter of Credit or Revolving Loan Commitment, the Revolver Agent, (y) interest accrued, prior to and through the date of any such Sale may not be assigned, and (z) such Sales by Lenders who are Non-Funding Lenders due to clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent in all instances, unless in connection with such sale, such Non-Funding Lender cures, or causes the cure of, its Non-Funding Lender status as contemplated in subsection 1.11(e)(v). The Administrative Agent’s refusal to accept a Sale to a Credit Party, a holder of other Indebtedness of a Credit Party or an Affiliate of such a holder, or to a Person that would be a Non-Funding or Impacted Lender, or the imposition of conditions or limitations (including limitations on voting) upon Sales to such Persons, shall not be deemed to be unreasonable. In no event shall any Lender Sell any Loan or Commitment to Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof and any such purported Sale shall be null and void.
Conditions to Assignment by Banks Except as provided --------------------------------- herein, each Bank may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it, the Notes held by it and its participating interest in the risk relating to any Letters of Credit); provided that (a) each of the Agent and, unless a -------- Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall have given its prior written consent to such assignment, which consent, in the case of the Borrower, will not be unreasonably withheld, (b) if such assignment is to an Eligible Assignee which is not an existing bank, then such assignment shall be either such Bank's entire interest or be in an amount that is $2,500,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (c) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined), an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto (an "Assignment and Acceptance"), together with any Notes ------- - subject to such assignment. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder, and (ii) the assigning Bank shall, to the extent provided in such assignment and upon payment to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in (S)20.3, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement.
Permitted Assignments A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $5,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance.

Purchase by Assignee The Assignee reserves the right to bid for the property whether by itself or its agent or the Auctioneer (without payment of any deposit whatsoever). In the event the Assignee is declared the Purchaser, then the purchase price or so much as is applicable shall be set off against the indebtedness owing to the Assignee under the loan and security documentation on the date of sale, plus costs and expenses for the sale or incidental thereto.
Permitted Assignment Subject to the provisions of Section 5.6, the Company shall have the right to assign this contract to its successors or assigns, and all covenants or agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by or against its successors or assigns.
