Except as provided in section 18 of this chapter, if the corporation approves a qualified data center user's application to receive a specific transaction award certificate and enters into an agreement with the qualified data center user for a specific transaction award certificate, the corporation's certification of the qualified data center remains in effect, even if there is a future transfer, sale, or disposition, directly or indirectly, of the qualified data center. A subsequent owner shall enter into an agreement with the corporation before the subsequent owner is entitled to receive a specific transaction award certificate for the remainder of the eligibility period.
