Unless otherwise defined herein, or as the context hereof requires, each capitalized term used herein has the meaning given to such term in the Agreements.

In rendering this opinion, we have reviewed the following:

The opinions set forth herein are limited solely to the laws of the State of Georgia.

Each opinion in this opinion letter is subject to the following assumptions: (a) that each party to the Transaction and to each of the Agreements other than the Company has complied with all laws applicable to it that affect such transactions; (b) that each natural person acting on behalf of any party to the Transaction has sufficient legal competency to carry out such person’s role in the Transaction; (c) that each document submitted to us for review is accurate and complete; (d) that each document purporting to be original is authentic; (e) that each document purporting to be a copy conforms to an authentic original; (f) that each signature on a document is genuine; and (g) that the Agreements and the Transaction are governed solely by the laws of the State of Georgia irrespective of the designation of any other governing venues or jurisdictions set forth in the Agreements (including, without limitation, the State of North Carolina).

Based upon the qualifications, exceptions, and other limitations set forth herein, it is our opinion that:

1. Based solely on the Certificate of Existence dated April     , 2009 issued by the North Carolina Secretary of State in regard to the Company, a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof on Exhibit “A-1” and the certified copies of the Articles of Incorporation referenced above together with all amendments thereto, Borrower was duly organized as a corporation and is existing and in good standing under the laws of North Carolina. Based solely upon the following the following certificates, Borrower is in good standing or validly existing under the laws of the following jurisdictions where its conduct of business requires qualification: (i) State of Alabama Certificate of Qualification dated April 28, 2009, a copy of which is attached

2. The Company has the corporate power to execute and deliver each of the Agreements and to perform its obligations under the Agreements. The Agreements are valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, except as such terms may be affected by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar debtor relief laws from time to time in effect, and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, The Company (a) duly authorized the execution of each of the Agreements by Robert P. Ingle, Chief Executive Officer and Ron Freeman, Chief Financial Officer, (b) duly authorized the delivery of each of the Agreements to Lenders, and (c) duly authorized all performance by the Company under each of the Agreements as provided therein.

3. The execution and delivery by the Company of each of the Agreements do not, and if the Company were now to perform its obligations under any of the Agreements such performance would not, result in any:

(i) violation of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; or

(ii) breach of or default under any material written agreements to which, to our actual knowledge, the Company is bound, which would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to fulfill its obligations under the Agreements; or

(iii) violation of any judicial or administrative decree, writ, judgment or order to which, to our actual knowledge, the Company is subject, which would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to fulfill its obligations under the Agreements.

4. No consent, approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any court or governmental authority is required for the Company’s execution and delivery of any of the Agreements or consummation of any of the Transaction contemplated by the Agreements to be effected by the Company.

5. The Borrower is not to our actual knowledge engaged in the business of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the
