9.5. Assignment. Either party may assign this agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder to any of its affiliates, or in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its business, or in the event of its merger or consolidation or change in control or similar transaction, providing that the assignee assume all obligations of its assignor under this agreement.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the prior written consent of LICENSEE, LICENSOR shall not under any circumstances assign or transfer any LICENSOR Technology unless: (i) all of the rights and obligations of LICENSOR under this Agreement are assigned to the same transferee(s) concurrently therewith, and (ii) such transferee(s) expressly assume(s) in writing the performance of all terms and conditions of this Agreement to be performed by LICENSOR and such assignment shall not relieve the assignor of any of its obligations under this Agreement.  Each Party acknowledges that the other Party would suffer irreparable injury in the event of any breach of this Assignment provision and that therefore the remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach hereof by any party shall be deemed inadequate.  Accordingly, upon a breach or threatened breach hereof by any Party, the other Party shall, in addition and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies it may have, be entitled as a matter of right, without proof of actual damages, to seek specific performance hereof and to such other injunctive or equitable relief to enforce, or prevent any violations (whether anticipatory, continuing, or future) hereof.
