If any consent, approval or authorization to such assignment of any such Transferable Permit shall not be obtained without recourse to Seller, or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would materially impair Buyer's rights and obligations under such Transferable Permit such that Buyer would not acquire and assume the benefit and burden of all such rights and obligations, then Seller shall administer such Transferable Permit for the benefit of Buyer pursuant to, and subject to, the terms and conditions of, the O&M Agreement; provided that (i) the Parties shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent to partial assignment of any Common Permit subject to this Section 1(f) unless Seller shall notify Buyer that such effort reasonably could be expected to adversely affect any Contractor Facilities subject to such Common Permit; and (ii) if the O&M Agreement expires or terminates before the expiration or termination of such Transferable Permit, then Seller, at its option (exercisable by notice to Buyer) and to the fullest extent permitted by Law and such Transferable Permit, shall, from and after such expiration or termination of the O&M Agreement, either (A) appoint Buyer to be Seller's agent with respect to such Transferable Permit to the extent of the Group of Purchased UI Assets, or (B) enter into such reasonable arrangements with Buyer or take such other actions as are necessary to provide Buyer with the same or substantially similar rights and obligations under such Transferable Permit to the extent of the Group of Purchased UI Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, for each Common Permit subject to this Section 1(f) that survives the expiration or termination of the O&M Agreement, Seller shall have the option to manage and control such Common Permit, or appoint Buyer, each in accordance with Section 1(e), for the period after such expiration or termination.
