  2. It can be or has been assigned to another holder;
  3. It is not of a character that has been recognized traditionally at common law;
  4. It imposes a negative burden;
  5. It imposes affirmative obligations upon the owner of an interest in the burdened property or upon the holder;
  6. The benefit does not touch or concern real property; or
  7. There is no privity of estate or of contract.
