1.  Recitals and Definitions. The recitals above are true and correct and incorporated in this Agreement by reference. Any capitalized term used and not defined in this Agreement shall have the definition for such term listed in the Operating Agreement.

2.  Grant of Option; Consent to Pledge. The Grating Members hereby grant to PFMS an exclusive right and option to purchase all of their Membership Interests (the “Option”) subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

3.  Exercise of the Option. PFMS may exercise the Option upon or at any time after (a) the earlier of (i) all of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest and obligations due under PFMG VI’s debt and lease financing facilities (“Financing”), provided by PFMG Holdings, L.L.C., a Georgia limited liability company (“Lender”), have been paid, or (ii) consent of the Lender for the Financing to the transfer of the Membership Interests to PFMS, and (b) any approvals required to be obtained from any federal or state regulatory body or other governmental authority have been obtained, by providing written notice of such election to PFMG VI and the Members (the “Election Notice”). Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require PFMS to exercise the Option and PFMG VI and the Granting Members acknowledge and agree that the Option may be exercised by PFMS in PFMS’s sole and absolute discretion. If PFMS exercises the Option, the closing on the purchase of the Membership Interests shall occur on or before five (5) Business Days after the Election Notice is received by PFMG VI or such other date that PFMS and PFMG VI may designate (the “Closing Date”).

5.  Assignment of Rights to Dividends and Distributions. Each Granting Member hereby assigns all of his right, title, and interest in and to any dividends or distributions to PFMS (other than distributions to pay income taxes on income of PFMG VI allocated to the Granting Member) (the “Assigned Dividends and Distributions”); provided, however, that this assignment shall not be construed to permit the Assigned Dividends and Distributions that are expressly prohibited by the PFMS Operating Agreement without Investor’s prior written approval. If any such Assigned Dividends and Distributions are made by PFMG VI to the Granting Members either with or without the prior written approval of holders of Series A Preferred Units, the Members shall hold the full amount of such Assigned Dividends and Distributions in trust for the sole benefit of PFMS and shall promptly transfer the full amount of the Assigned Dividends and Distributions to PFMS upon PFMS’s request.

6.  Representations and Warranties; Covenants. Each party hereby represents and warrants to the other that it has the full and complete authority to enter into this Agreement. PFMS, PFMG VI, and the Granting Members agree to execute such other commercially reasonable documentation necessary to effectuate this Agreement and transfer the Membership Interests if the Option is exercised. PFMG VI and the Granting Members represent that no Person (other than PFMS) has a right or option to purchase the Membership Interests or any part thereof and covenant not to grant any such right or option. The Membership Interests are lawfully and beneficially owned of record by the Granting Members and are, and shall be on the Closing Date, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free and clear of all liens, claims, charges, restrictions, equities, and encumbrances and any other third party rights, with all transfer and other taxes paHid. The Granting Members covenant and agree not to transfer, sell, or convey the Membership Interests to any Person without the prior written approval of Investor.

11.  Consent to Transfer. The Granting Members and PFMG VI hereby affirmatively approve (i) any transfer, sale, or assignment of the Membership Interests made in connection with this Agreement and agree that any such transfer, sale, or assignment shall be deemed to be in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement.

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart.
