Sec. 13. It is an unfair practice for a manufacturer or distributor to prevent or attempt to prevent a dealer from receiving fair and reasonable compensation for the value of the franchised business as a going concern. The dealer may not transfer or assign the dealer's franchise without the consent of the manufacturer or distributor, and the manufacturer or distributor may not unreasonably withhold consent.
