Seller Covenants Seller covenants and agrees as follows:
LESSOR'S COVENANTS The Lessor covenants and agrees that, unless the Agent and the Lenders shall have otherwise consented in writing:
(a) it shall not amend its Partnership Agreement, except to admit limited partners in connection with lease transactions similar to the Transactions;
(b) it shall not incur any indebtedness or other monetary obligation or liability, other than (i) non-recourse indebtedness incurred in connection with the Transactions or similar transactions and (ii) operating expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business that are not delinquent;
(c) the proceeds of the Loans received from the Lenders will be used by the Lessor solely to acquire the Leased Property and to pay the Lessee for certain closing and transaction costs associated therewith and for the costs of Construction. No portion of the proceeds of the Loans will be used by the Lessor (i) in connection with, whether directly or indirectly, any tender offer for, or other acquisition of, stock of any corporation with a view towards obtaining control of such other corporation, (ii) directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, or (iii) for any purpose in violation of any Applicable Law;
(d) it shall not engage in any business or activity, or invest in any Person, except for activities similar to its activities conducted on the date hereof, the Transactions and lease transactions similar to the Transactions;
(e) it will maintain tangible net worth in an amount no less than the sum of (i) $100,000 plus (ii) 3% of its total assets (calculated assuming no reduction in the value of any leased property from its original cost to the Lessor);
(f) it will deliver to the Agent, as soon as available and in any event within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, a balance sheet of the Lessor as of the end of such fiscal year and the related statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, together with copies of its tax returns, all certified by an officer of the general partner (and if the Lessor ever prepares audited financial statements, it shall deliver copies thereto the Agent);
(g) it will permit the Agent and its representatives to examine, and make copies from, the Lessor's books and records, and to visit the offices and properties of the Lessor for the purpose of examining such materials, and to discuss the Lessor's performance hereunder with any of its, or its general partner's, officers and employees;
(h) it shall not consent to or suffer or permit any Lien against the Leased Property, other than as expressly contemplated pursuant to the Operative Documents;
(i) it shall not consent to or suffer or permit the creation of any easement or other restriction against the Leased Property other than as permitted pursuant to Article VI of the Lease; and
(j) it shall promptly discharge each Lessor Lien and shall indemnify the Lenders and the Lessee for any diminution in value of any Leased Property resulting from such Lessor Liens.
Legal Requirement Covenants (a) Subject to Subsection 8.3(b) and Subsection 9.1(b) below, Lessee covenants and agrees that the Leased Property and Lessee’s Personal Property shall not be used for any unlawful purpose, and that Lessee shall not permit or suffer to exist any unlawful use of the Leased Property by others. Lessee shall acquire and maintain all appropriate licenses, certifications, permits and other authorizations and approvals needed to operate the Leased Property in its customary manner for the Primary Intended Use, and any other lawful use conducted on the Leased Property as may be permitted from time to time hereunder. Lessee further covenants and agrees that Lessee’s use of the Leased Property and maintenance, alteration, and operation of the same, and all parts thereof, shall at all times conform to all Legal Requirements, unless the same are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful (and Lessee shall cause all sub-tenants, invitees or others within its control so to comply with all Legal Requirements). Lessee may, however, upon prior Notice to Lessor, contest the legality or applicability of any such Legal Requirement or any licensure or certification decision if Lessee maintains such action in good faith, with due diligence, without prejudice to Lessor’s rights hereunder, and at Lessee’s sole expense. If by the terms of any such Legal Requirement compliance therewith pending the prosecution of any such proceeding may legally be delayed without the occurrence of any charge or liability of any kind, or the filing of any lien, against the Hotel or Lessee’s leasehold interest therein and without subjecting Lessee or Lessor to any liability, civil or criminal, for failure so to comply therewith, Lessee may delay compliance therewith until the final determination of such proceeding. If any lien, charge or civil or criminal liability would be incurred by reason of any such delay, Lessee, on the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, may nonetheless contest as aforesaid and delay as aforesaid provided that such delay would not subject Lessor to criminal liability and Lessee both (a) furnishes to Lessor security reasonably satisfactory to Lessor against any loss or injury by reason of such contest or delay and (b) prosecutes the contest with due diligence and in good faith.
(b) As between Lessor and Lessee, Lessee is solely responsible for all liabilities or obligations of any kind with respect to employees at the Leased Property during the Term. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, Lessee is solely responsible for any required compliance with the Worker Adjustment, Retraining and Notification Act of 1988 (the “WARN Act”) or any similar state law applicable to the Leased Property; any required compliance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”); and all alleged and actual obligations and claims arising from or relating to any employment agreement, collective bargaining agreement or employee benefit plans, any grievances, arbitration’s, or unfair labor practice charges, and relating to compliance with any applicable state or federal labor employment law, including but not limited to all laws pertaining to discrimination, workers’ compensation, unemployment compensation, occupational safety and health, unfair labor practices, family and medical leave, and wages, hours or employee benefits. Lessee agrees to indemnify and defend and hold harmless Lessor from and against any claims relating to any of the foregoing matters. Lessee further agrees to reimburse Lessor for any and all losses, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities and obligations of any kind, including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees and other legal costs and expenses, incurred by Lessor in connection with any of the foregoing matters.
(c) Notwithstanding the Lessee’s obligations under Section 8.1 to obtain and maintain all permits and licenses required for the use of the Leased Property, and without limiting any obligations of Lessee hereunder, if (i) applicable law requires that the owner (rather than a lessee) of a hotel be the licensee under the required liquor license for the Hotel or (ii) the former owner of the Hotel is holding the liquor license and continuing to exercise management and supervision of the liquor services at the Hotel pending transfer of the license to Lessor or Lessee, the Lessee shall indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from any liability, damages or claims (a) arising in connection with liquor operations at the Hotel during such period of time following the Commencement Date, except to the extent caused by Lessor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or (b) made by or through the former owner with respect to liquor operations at the Hotel following the Commencement Date.
Minimum Vendor Legal Requirements Vendor shall remain aware of and comply with this Agreement and all local, state, and federal laws governing the sale of products/services offered by Vendor under this contract. Such applicable laws, ordinances, and policies must be complied with even if not specified herein.

Director further acknowledges that he or she has received similar confidential information from Summit regarding Summit and the Summit Subsidiaries as a result of the negotiations resulting in the Merger Agreement and will continue to receive such information through the consummation of the Merger. Director further acknowledges and agrees that this consideration constitutes fair and adequate consideration for the execution of the non-solicitation and non-competition restrictions set forth below. Accordingly, other than in any capacity for or on behalf of Summit or any subsidiary of Summit, Director agrees that for a period of 18 months after the Closing Date, Director will not, directly or indirectly, individually or as an employee, partner, officer, director or shareholder or in any other capacity whatsoever:
(i) solicit the business of any person or entity who is a customer of PSB, any PSB Subsidiary, Summit or any Summit Subsidiary as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date on behalf of any other depository and lending institution (which term includes, for avoidance of doubt, credit unions);
(A) acquire any interest in (directly or indirectly), charter, operate or enter into any franchise or other management agreement with, any insured depository institution that has a location within a 25-mile radius of any location of PSB, any PSB Subsidiary, Summit or any Summit Subsidiary as of the date of this Agreement (the “Noncompete Area”) (but Director may (1) retain any existing ownership interest in any insured depository institution, (2) acquire an ownership interest in any depository institution, so long as that ownership interest does not exceed 3% of the total number of shares outstanding of that depository institution, and (3) invest in an existing mutual fund that invests, directly or indirectly, in such insured depository institutions),
(B) serve as an officer, director or employee of, or an agent or consultant with respect to the provision of banking services for, any insured depository institution that has a location within the Noncompete Area, or
(C) establish or operate a branch or other office of an insured depository institution within the Noncompete Area; or
(iii) recruit, hire, assist others in recruiting or hiring, discuss employment with, or refer others concerning employment, any person who is, or within the 12 months preceding the Closing Date was, an employee of PSB, any PSB Subsidiary, Summit or any Summit Subsidiary; provided that Director shall not be prohibited from recruiting, hiring, assisting others in recruiting or hiring, discussing employment with, or referring others concerning employment, any such employee if (i) such employee’s employment is terminated by PSB, any PSB Subsidiary, Summit, any Summit Subsidiary or any of their respective affiliates or successors, or (ii) such employee responds to a general solicitation not targeted to employees of PSB, any PSB Subsidiary, Summit or any Summit Subsidiary or any of their respective affiliates or successors. Nothing in this Section 2(a)(iii) applies to employment other than in the financial services business. Director may not avoid the purpose and intent of this Section 2(a) by engaging in conduct within the geographically limited area from a remote location through means such as telecommunications, written correspondence, computer generated or assisted communications, or other similar methods.
(b) If any court of competent jurisdiction should determine that the terms of this Section 2 are too broad in terms of time, geographic area, lines of commerce or otherwise, that court is to modify and revise any such terms so that they comply with applicable law.
(c) Director agrees that (i) this Agreement is entered into in connection with the sale to Summit of the goodwill of the business of PSB, (ii) Director is receiving valuable consideration for this Agreement, (iii) the restrictions imposed upon Director by this Agreement are essential and necessary to ensure Summit acquires the goodwill of PSB and (iv) all the restrictions (including particularly the time and geographical limitations) set forth in this Agreement are fair and reasonable.
(d) Director agrees that he or she will not make any unauthorized disclosure, directly or indirectly, of any Confidential Information of PSB, PSB Subsidiaries, Summit or Summit Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Disclosing Parties”) to third parties, or make any use thereof, directly or indirectly, other than in connection with the Merger or except as otherwise authorized. Director also agrees that he or she shall deliver promptly to Summit or PSB at any time at its reasonable request, without retaining any copies, all documents and other material in Director’s possession at that time relating, directly or indirectly, to any Confidential Information or other information of the Disclosing Parties, or Confidential Information or other information regarding third parties learned in such person’s position as a director, officer, employee or shareholder of PSB or PSB Subsidiaries, as applicable.
Other Covenants The Sub-Adviser agrees that it will:
(a) comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in performance of its duties as sub-investment adviser for the Series and, in addition, will conduct its activities under this Agreement in accordance with other applicable federal and state law;
(b) review and analyze on a periodic basis the Series' portfolio holdings and transactions in order to determine their appropriateness in light of such Series' shareholder base;
(c) provide, or cause to be provided, to the Board of Directors of the Fund such reports, statistical data and economic information as may be reasonably requested in connection with the Sub-Adviser's services hereunder;
(d) use the same skill and care in providing such services as it uses in providing services to fiduciary accounts for which it has investment responsibilities;
(e) place orders pursuant to its investment determinations for the Series either directly with the issuer or with any broker or dealer. In executing portfolio transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Sub- Adviser will use its best efforts to seek on behalf of the Series the best overall terms available. In assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction, the Sub-Adviser shall consider all factors that it deems relevant, including the breadth of the market in the security, the price of the security, the financial condition and execution capability of the broker or dealer, and the reasonableness of the commission, if any, both for the specific transaction and on a continuing basis. In evaluating the best overall terms available, and in selecting the broker-dealer to execute a particular transaction, the Sub-Adviser may also consider the brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) provided to the Series and other accounts over which the Sub-Adviser or an affiliate of the Sub-Adviser exercises investment discretion. The Sub-Adviser is authorized, subject to the prior approval of the Adviser and the Fund's Board of Directors, to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for any of the Series which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if, but only if, the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that such commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer as viewed in terms of that particular transaction or in terms of the overall responsibilities of the Sub-Adviser to the Series. In addition, the Sub-Adviser is authorized to take into account the sale of the Fund's shares in allocating purchase and sale orders for portfolio securities to brokers or dealers (including brokers and dealers that are affiliated with the Adviser, Sub-Adviser or the Fund's principal underwriter), provided that the Sub-Adviser believes that the quality of the execution and the commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified firms. In no instance, however, will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, the Fund's principal underwriter or any affiliated person of any of the Fund, the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, or the principal underwriter, acting as principal in the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable federal and state laws and regulations;
(f) maintain historical tax lots for each portfolio security held by the Series;
(g) transmit trades to the Fund's custodian for proper settlement; and
(h) prepare a quarterly broker security transaction summary and monthly security transaction listing for each Series.
