Assignment of Contracts and Rights; Third Party Consents Clause Samples

The "Assignment of Contracts and Rights; Third Party Consents" clause governs how and under what conditions a party may transfer its contractual rights or obligations to another entity. Typically, this clause outlines whether prior written consent is required from the other contracting party or from third parties involved, and may specify exceptions or procedures for obtaining such consents. Its core function is to ensure that all relevant parties are aware of and agree to any changes in who holds contractual rights or responsibilities, thereby preventing unauthorized transfers and protecting the interests of all stakeholders.
Assignment of Contracts and Rights; Third Party Consents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any Transferred Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or a violation of Law or would in any way adversely affect the rights of the Buyer thereunder. Subject to Section 5.05(b), the Sellers and the Buyer will each use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent of the other parties to any such Transferred Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder for the assignment thereof to the Buyer as the Buyer may reasonably request. If such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted transfer or assignment thereof would be ineffective or a violation of Law or would adversely affect the rights of the Buyer (as assignee of the applicable Seller) thereto or thereunder so that the Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, the Sellers and the Buyer will, subject to Section 5.05(b), cooperate in a mutually agreeable arrangement, such as a subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing arrangement, under which the Buyer would, in compliance with Law, obtain the benefits, and, to the extent first arising after the Closing, assume the obligations and bear the economic burdens associated with such Transferred Asset or such claim, right or benefit in accordance with this Agreement, or under which the Sellers would, upon the Buyer’s request, enforce for the benefit (and at the expense) of the Buyer any and all of their rights against a third party associated with such Transferred Asset or such claim, right or benefit, and the Sellers would promptly pay to the Buyer when received all monies received by them under any such Transferred Asset or such claim, right or benefit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 2.02 will not apply to Shared Contracts, and the parties’ obligations with respect to Shared Contracts will be governed by Section 5.17.
