Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. ------- --------------------------------------- No response is required to this item. Item 6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors. ------- ------------------------------------------ As provided under Georgia law, the Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that a Director shall not be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages, for breach of the duty of care or any other fiduciary duty owed to the Company as a Director, except that such provisions shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a Director (a) for any appropriation, in violation of his or her duties, of any business opportunity of the Company; (b) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (c) for unlawful corporation distributions; or (d) for any transaction from which the Director received an improper personal benefit. If applicable law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the liability of Directors, the liability of each Director of the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. These provisions apply to claims against officers, employees, and agents of the Company as well. Article VI of the Company's Bylaws provides that the Company shall indemnify a Director who has been successful in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she was a party or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein because he or she is or was a Director of the Company, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in connection with such defense. The Company's Bylaws also provide that the Company may indemnify any Director, officer, employee or agent made a party to a proceeding because he or she is or was a Director, officer, employee or agent against liability incurred in the proceeding if he or she conducted himself or herself in good faith and reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, that such conduct was in the best interests of the Company; in all other cases, that such conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of the Company; and in the case of any criminal proceeding, that he or she had no reasonable cause to believe such conduct was unlawful. An officer who is not a Director, or an officer who is also a Director and is made a party to a proceeding on the sole basis of an act or omission in his or her capacity as an officer, may be indemnified as provided by the Articles, Bylaws, a resolution of the Board or II-1 contract; except for liability arising out of conduct that constitutes (i) an appropriation, in violation of his or her duties, of any business opportunity of the Company, (ii) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) unlawful corporate distributions, or (iv) any transaction from which the officer received an improper personal benefit. Determination concerning whether or not the applicable standard of conduct has been met can be made by (a) a majority of all of the disinterested members of the Board; (b) a majority of a committee of disinterested Directors; (c) independent legal counsel; or (d) the shareholders. No indemnification may be made to or on behalf of a Director, officer, employee or agent (1) in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the Company in which such person was adjudged liable to the Company, except for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding if it is determined that the Director has met the relevant standard of conduct, or (2) in connection with any other proceeding with respect to conduct for which such person was adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by him or her, whether or not involving action in his or her official capacity. The Company may, if authorized by its shareholders by a majority of votes which would be entitled to be cast in a vote to amend the Company's Articles of Incorporation, indemnify or obligate itself to indemnify a Director, officer, employee or agent made a party to a proceeding, including a proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company.

Item 9. Undertakings. ------- ------------- (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's Annual Report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. II-3 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the City of Alpharetta, State of Georgia, on the 18th day of October, 2001.
