Contracts are no where near that standardized, it might just come down to the specific language/clause that was used, either done deliberately or just some lawyer group's normalized process.
Still the contract should be void, when the legal entity ceases to exist.
When a company is bought, it's not the same legal entity or "person".
Seems to me this is merely arbitrary bullshit, where American courts tend to favor American companies.
How do you know that Nuvia no longer exists as a legal entity? A company can be acquired without it being dissolved (ceasing to exist).
If that's the case they have no right to extend their license to another company.
