                              AMENDED AND RESTATED
                     UNSECURED SUBORDINATED PROMISSORY NOTE

U.S. $3,000,000.00                                             DECEMBER 31, 2008
(Principal Amount)                                               (Date of Issue)


     FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION RECEIVED, AlbaHealth, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (the "Company"), hereby promises to pay to Tefron USA, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Seller"), the principal amount of Three Million and
00/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00), together with interest (calculated on the basis
of actual days elapsed and a 360 calendar day year) on the unpaid principal
balance hereof, from the Date of Issue and until this Amended and Restated
Unsecured Subordinated Promissory Note ("Note") is paid in full, at a rate equal
to the rate determined in accordance with paragraph 2 (the "Interest Rate").

1.   MATURITY DATE. The principal balance represented by this Note, together
     with all accrued and unpaid interest due hereunder, shall be due and
     payable, in full, to Seller on or before January 1, 2012 (the "Maturity
     Date").

2.   INTEREST RATE. Prior to July 1, 2009, interest will accrue on the
     outstanding principal balance at an interest rate per annum equal to the
     LIBOR in effect on the first day of the FIXED RATE TERM plus a margin of
     5.00% (the "Default Margin"). On and after July 1, 2009, interest will
     accrue on the outstanding principal balance at an interest rate per annum
     equal to the LIBOR in effect on the first day of the FIXED RATE TERM plus a
     margin of 3.00% (the "Standard Margin"). Such rate is set on the first day
     of each Fixed Rate Term based upon the then applicable LIBOR, plus the
     Standard Margin or the Default Margin, as applicable, and is fixed for the
     duration of each Fixed Rate Term. "LIBOR" means, for each Fixed Rate Term,
     an annual rate equal to the rate for the applicable Fixed Rate Term
     appearing on the display designated as Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or such
     other page on that service or such other service designated by the British
     Banker's Association for the display of such Association's Interest
     Settlement Rates for Dollar deposits) as of 11:00 a.m. (London, England
     time) on the day that is two business days prior to the first day of the
     relevant Fixed Rate Term or if such page is unavailable for any reason at
     such time, the rate which appears on the Reuters Screen ISDA Page as of
     such date and such time; provided, however, that if the relevant foregoing
     sources are unavailable for the relevant Fixed Rate Term, the LIBOR shall
     be determined from such financial reporting service or other information as
     shall be mutually acceptable to the Company and the Seller. "Fixed Rate
     Term" means a period commencing on a Business Day and continuing for three
     (3) months, during which the outstanding principal balance of this Note
     bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR. The first Fixed Rate Term
     shall commence on the Date of Issue.





     At the end of the first Fixed Rate Term, and at the end of each subsequent
     Fixed Rate Term until final maturity of this Note, another Fixed Rate Term
     of the same length shall commence, and the interest rate shall be adjusted
     to reflect the LIBOR in effect on the first day of the new Fixed Rate Term
     plus the Standard Margin or the Default Margin, as applicable. If any Fixed
     Rate Term would end on a day which is not followed by a Business Day, then
     such Fixed Rate Term shall be extended to the next day which is followed by
     a Business Day. "Business Day" means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or
     any other day on which commercial banks in Georgia are authorized or
     required by law to close.

     If the Company shall default in the payment of principal of or interest,
     then the outstanding principal amount and, to the extent permitted by
     applicable law, any interest payments thereon not paid when due, shall
     thereafter bear interest at the Default Rate. Interest at the Default Rate
     shall be payable upon demand and shall accrue from the initial date of such
     default until it is cured or waived. The "Default Rate" shall mean the
     interest calculated in accordance with the Default Margin.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, interest under this Note
     shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by law. If any amount is paid
     under this note as interest in excess of such maximum rate, then the amount
     so paid will not constitute interest but will constitute a prepayment on
     account of the principal amount of this Note.

3.   PAYMENT. Accrued but unpaid interest on this Note shall be paid as follows:

     (a)  Interest which has accrued but remains unpaid for the period April 1,
          2008 through March 31, 2009 shall be paid in four (4) equal sequential
          monthly installments commencing on July 1, 2009, and continuing on the
          first day of each month thereafter;

     (b)  Interest accruing for the period April 1, 2009 through June 30, 2009
          shall be paid on July 1, 2009;

     (c)  Interest accruing for the period July 1, 2009 through September 30,
          2009 shall be paid on October 1, 2009; and

     (d)  Thereafter, accrued interest shall be paid together with payments of
          principal, as described below.


                                     - 2 -



     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not commence to make any
     payments of accrued interest on this Note until such time as all amounts
     due and owing to SunTrust under that certain Amended and Restated Declining
     Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 31, 2008, among the Company
     and SunTrust (as amended, the "Credit Agreement") have been paid in full.

     Commencing on October 1, 2009 accrued interest shall be due and payable in
     consecutive quarterly installments, with the first such payment on October
     1, 2009, and continuing on the first (1st) day of each January, April, July
     and October thereafter until this Note is paid in full, by deposit to such
     account as Seller may have last designated by written notice to the
     Company. All payments made after 1:00 p.m., Georgia time, shall be deemed
     to have been received on the next Business Day. The principal balance under
     this Note shall due and payable in ten (10) consecutive quarterly
     installments of $300,000 commencing on October 1, 2009 and continuing on
     the first (1st) day of each January, April, July and October thereafter
     until this Note is paid in full, with the final principal payment being due
     and payable on the Maturity Date.

4.   TERMINATION. On or prior to the Maturity Date, upon final, irrevocable and
     indefeasible payment, in whole or in aggregate installments, of the full
     amount due and owing under this Note, this Note will terminate and be of no
     further force and effect.

5.   UNSECURED NOTE. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the indebtedness
     represented by this Note is unsecured.

6.   MEMBERSHIP INTEREST REDEMPTION AGREEMENT. This Note is issued pursuant to
     the terms of that certain Membership Interest Redemption Agreement dated
     April 26, 2006, by and between the Company and Seller and is subject to the
     terms thereof.

7.   SUBORDINATED NOTE. ALL INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE IS SUBORDINATED
     TO CERTAIN OTHER INDEBTEDNESS PURSUANT TO, AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN,

     AND THE SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS AS DEFINED IN THE BB&T SUBORDINATION
     AGREEMENT.

     Company may, in its sole discretion, prepay this Note, in whole or in part
     without premium or penalty, at a price equal to one hundred percent (100%)
     of the principal amount of the Note, plus accrued interest on a daily basis
     to the date of prepayment.

          through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is
          under common control with, the Company), except (i) in the ordinary
          course of business consistent with past practice at prices and on
          terms and conditions not less favorable to the Company or such
          subsidiary than could be obtained on an arm's-length basis from
          unrelated third parties, and (ii) any payment permitted by subsection
          (b) of this Section 9.

          the election of at least a majority of the board of directors or other

          body of the Company consists of five or fewer members); or (b) the
          failure of Encompass at any time to directly own beneficially and of
          record on a fully diluted basis 51% of the outstanding equity
          interests (including limited liability company interests and warrants,
          rights or options to purchase any equity interests) (collectively,
          "Capital Stock") of the Company; or (c) the failure of the Company at
          any time to own beneficially and of record on a fully diluted basis
          100% of the outstanding Capital Stock of each of its subsidiaries,
          free and clear of all liens other than liens created under the
          security documents entered into by the Company and the Bank.
          Notwithstanding anything else in this Section, the pledge by Encompass
          of its membership interests, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
          to Wachovia Bank, National Association, as agent, and its successors
          and assigns (hereinafter, "Wachovia Bank") shall not constitute a

11.  REMEDIES ON DEFAULT; ACCELERATION. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
     Default as described under Sections 10.a., 10.c. and 10.e. hereof, Seller
     shall have the right to declare the principal amount hereof and all accrued
     but unpaid interest thereon to be immediately due and payable upon written
     notice from Seller to the Company.

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as described under Sections
     10.b., Seller shall have the option to either (a) declare the principal
     amount hereof and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon to be immediately
     due and payable upon written notice from Seller to the Company, or (b)
     convert the principal balance of this Note into Common Units of the
     Company, which are free and clear of any restriction, lien or encumbrance
     of any kind, at a rate equal $274.20 per Common Unit, subject to adjustment
     for dividends, distributions, reclassifications, or similar events
     affecting the Company's Common Units (which adjustments are intended to put
     Seller in the same position with regard to its percentage ownership of the
     issued and outstanding equity of the Company as it would have been had the
     relevant event not occurred) (the "Conversion Price"). The number of Common
     Units to be issued upon such conversion shall be equal to the quotient
     obtained by dividing (i) the entire principal amount of this Note plus
     accrued interest by (ii) the Conversion Price.

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as described under Section
     10.d., the principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon
     will automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any
     declaration or other act on behalf of Seller.
