(1) NLD expends substantial time and money, on an ongoing basis, to recruit and train its employees; (2) NLD's business is highly competitive and is marketed throughout the United States, and (3) if the Adviser were to hire any NLD employees who are involved in the procurement of the services under the Agreement then NLD may suffer lost sales and other opportunities and would incur substantial expense in hiring and training replacement(s) for those employees.
