Case 1: Sucks to be us! All that remains in such a case is (even though I don't like it) to hope for someone to find the weakspot if this thing and write a non-UBI patch to bypass it. Might be even one of the (then) former developers that hates to see the game go belly up. No official solution nor a solution one would hope for but a solution nontheless.

Case 2: If a company is sold all its contracts are transfered to the new owner and he is bound to those contracts. Thus, if UBI puts in their contracts that they will provide a no-servers patch once the servers are to be shut down, the new owner has to do this as well. If they don't, please refer to Case 1.
