If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to such Confidential Information.

            9.         Assignment. None of the Licensees may assign any of the rights or obligations of any of the Licensees under this Agreement, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Developer.  Developer may assign its rights or obligations hereunder at any time, with or without notice to Licensees.
