Part 3 – Data Processing Contract-specific clauses 

...

24.2 A Party may, upon written notice to the other Party and subject to the prior written approval of the other Party (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement to any of its affiliates or in connection with a change of control transaction  (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of equity interests, sale of all or substantially all assets,  or otherwise).
