We license photopost to individual entities. This can be a person, a corporation, an organization, etc. The license is non-transferrable between entities. Examples:

John owns a PhotoPost license that he is using on cartalk.com. He no longer wishes to use PhotoPost on his site and he wants to sell his license to Bill who owns Mootown.com. This transfer is not allowed. Bill cannot buy a PhotoPost license from John. He must buy it from photopost.com.

John owns a PhotoPost license that he is using on cartalk.com. Bill wants to buy the cartalk.com website, so John decides to include his PhotoPost license as part of the site sale. This transfer is not allowed. Bill needs to purchase a new license from PhotoPost.com.

If a license is in your name, it stays with you. If a license is in your company's name, it stays with your company. Again, the license is not transferrable.

The purpose of this is not to make your life difficult. Rather, it is to prevent people from selling multiple copies of PhotoPost. It is not a physical product like a car, which can only be sold once. A person could decide to try to resell their PhotoPost license to 50 people, if they wanted. Also, it isn't possible for us to track who owns what license unless the license holder purchased the license directly from us.
