the making of additional Loans under the Loan Agreement as amended hereby:
(a) Authorization of Agreements. The Borrower has the right and
power, and has taken all necessary action to authorize it, to execute, deliver
and perform this Amendment and each other agreement contemplated hereby to which
it is a party in accordance with their respective terms. This Amendment and each
other agreement contemplated hereby to which it is a party have been duly

accordance with its terms.
(b) Compliance of Agreements with Laws. The execution, delivery
and performance of this Amendment and each other agreement contemplated hereby
to which the Borrower is a party in accordance with their respective terms do
not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise,
(i) require any Governmental Approval or violate any
Applicable Law relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
(ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a
default under the articles or certificate of incorporation or by-laws
or any shareholders' agreement of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, any material provisions of any indenture, agreement or
other instrument to which the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any
of Borrower's or such Subsidiaries' property may be bound or any
Governmental Approval relating to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or
(iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of
any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter
acquired by the Borrower other than the Security Interest.

Effective Date, all references in the Loan Agreement and in any other Loan
Document to "this Agreement," "the Loan Agreement," "hereunder," "hereof" and

references to the Loan Agreement as amended by this Amendment. Except as
expressly amended hereby, the Loan Agreement and all terms, conditions and
provisions thereof remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and
confirmed. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall
not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right,
power or remedy of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a
waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.
Section 6. Counterpart Execution; Governing Law.
(a) Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in
any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the
same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart signature page of any party
hereto by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually
delivered counterpart thereof.
(b) Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without giving
