Disclosure and Assignment of Inventions The Executive understands that the Company engages in research and development and other activities in connection with its business and that, as an essential part of the Employment, the Executive is expected to make new contributions to and create inventions of value for the Company. From and after the Effective Date, the Executive shall disclose in confidence to the Company all inventions, improvements, designs, original works of authorship, formulas, processes, compositions of matter, computer software programs, databases, mask works and trade secrets (collectively, the “Inventions”), which the Executive may solely or jointly conceive or develop or reduce to practice, or cause to be conceived or developed or reduced to practice, during the period of the Executive’s Employment at the Company. The Executive acknowledges that copyrightable works prepared by the Executive within the scope of and during the period of the Executive’s Employment with the Company are “works for hire” and that the Company will be considered the author thereof. The Executive agrees that all the Inventions shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company and the Executive hereby assign all his/her right, title and interest in and to any and all of the Inventions to the Company or its successor in interest without further consideration.
Participations and Assignments (a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Persons that extends secured commercial loans in its ordinary course of business and has assets or capital of at least $100,000,000 (other than (i) a natural person or (ii) any Defaulting Lender or its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its other Affiliates) (any such Person, an “Assignee”) all or any portion of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loans and also such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower (all of which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and shall not be required for an assignment by a Lender to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender). Except as Administrative Agent may otherwise agree (and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or, if less, the remaining Loan held by the assigning Lender. Borrower and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until Administrative Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (an “Assignment Agreement”) executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000). No assignment may be made to any Person if at the time of such assignment Borrower would be obligated to pay any greater amount under Sections 3.1 or 3.3 to the Assignee than Borrower is then obligated to pay to the assigning Lender under such Sections (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, Borrower will not be required to pay such greater amounts). Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 12.15 shall be treated as the sale of a participation hereunder. Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent to any assignment requiring its consent hereunder unless Borrower has expressly objected to such assignment within three (3) Business Days after notice thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) no consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent shall be required for any assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (provided that no assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its other Affiliates) and (y) the consent of each Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).
Enurement and Assignment This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors. This Agreement may not be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto.
Benefit and Assignment This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Executive shall communicate promptly and disclose to the Company, in such form as the Company may request, all information, details, and data pertaining to each Creation. Every copyrightable Creation, regardless of whether copyright protection is sought or preserved by the Company, shall be a “work made for hire” as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101, and the Company shall own all rights in and to such matter throughout the world, without the payment of any royalty or other consideration to Executive or anyone claiming through Executive.
SUBLICENSING AND ASSIGNMENT Controlled Affiliate shall not, directly or indirectly, sublicense, transfer, hypothecate, sell, encumber or mortgage, by operation of law or otherwise, the rights granted hereunder and any such act shall be voidable at the sole option of Plan or BCBSA. This Agreement and all rights and duties hereunder are personal to Controlled Affiliate.
Termination and Assignment (a) This Agreement may be terminated at any time, upon sixty days’ written notice, without the payment of any penalty, (i) by the Trustees, (ii) by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund; (iii) by Manager with the consent of the Trustees, or (iv) by Subadviser.
Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Agents, all future holders of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agents and each Lender.
Transfers and Assignments Subject to this Section 6.1, a Partner may transfer or assign all but not less than all of its Interest. If a Partner transfers or assigns all of its Interest pursuant to this Section 6.1, the transferee shall be admitted as a Partner of the Partnership upon its execution of an instrument signifying its agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which instrument may be a counterpart signature page to this Agreement. Such admission shall be deemed effective immediately prior to the transfer and, immediately following such admission, the transferor Partner shall cease to be a Partner of the Partnership. Any successor to a Partner by merger or consolidation shall, without further act, be a Partner hereunder, and such merger or consolidation shall not constitute an assignment for purposes of this Agreement and the Partnership shall continue without dissolution.
