BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the County hereby consents to and approves the transfer or assignment of High Country's interest in the License Agreement to Galaxy; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the County consents to the grant by Galaxy of a security interest in the License Agreement to its lenders to secure indebtedness or other obligations incurred by Galaxy with respect to the cable television system to be operated by Galaxy pursuant to the License Agreement with the condition precedent that any such lender shall agree in writing to comply with all obligations of the Licensee under the License Agreement prior to foreclosure on the rights under the License Agreement or prior to transfer or assignment.
