(b) A new Schedule 1.1(c) is added to the Credit Agreement in the form of Annex A attached hereto.

(a) The Agent shall have received duly executed counterparts to this Modification Agreement from each of the Credit Parties, the Agent, and the Lenders; and

(b) The Agent shall have received payment of its reasonable legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses arising from and relating to this Modification Agreement or otherwise arising on or prior to the date of this Modification Agreement.

Section 4. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Credit Parties hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and Lenders, which representations and warranties shall survive the execution and delivery of this Modification Agreement, that:

(a) All of the representations and warranties contained in Article IV of the Credit Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (except with respect to those representations and warranties which are qualified as to materiality in which case such specific materiality qualifiers shall apply) on the Effective Date, with the same force and effect as if made on such date, unless such representation and warranty expressly applies to an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be deemed made as of such earlier date.

(b) The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of this Modification Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by such Credit Party. This Modification Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of each Credit Party executing the same, enforceable against each Credit Party in accordance with its terms, subject to

limitations as to enforceability which might result from bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to limitations on the availability of equitable remedies.

(c) The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of this Modification Agreement will not (i) violate any provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any court, governmental agency or arbitrator presently in effect having applicability to such Credit Party, (ii) violate or contravene any provision of the Articles or Certificates of Incorporation or Formation, bylaws, operating agreement or partnership agreement of such Credit Party, or (iii) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or instrument to which such Credit Party is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or result in the creation of any Lien thereunder.

(d) Except as specifically waived herein, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(e) No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority is required on the part of any Credit Party to authorize, or is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of, or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of, this Modification Agreement.

Section 5. Acknowledgment; Release. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that their obligations to the Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Agreement as revised hereby are owing without offset, defense or counterclaim assertable by the Credit Parties against the Agent or any Lender. The Credit Parties further acknowledge and agree that the Security Documents continue to secure the obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement as revised hereby. Each of the Credit Parties hereby waives, releases and discharges Agent, the Funding Agent and Lenders from any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or in any way relating to the Loans, the other Obligations, the Loan Documents and/or any documents, agreements, dealings or other matters connected with any of the foregoing including, without limitation, all known and unknown matters, claims, transactions, or things occurring prior to the date of this Modification Agreement related to the Loans, the other Obligations, the Loan Documents and/or any documents, agreements, dealings or other matters connected with any of the foregoing.

(a) Except as specifically revised above, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed. Each of the Credit Parties hereby confirms its respective guarantees, pledges, grants of security interests and mortgages and other obligations, as applicable, under and subject to the terms of each of the other Loan Documents to which it is party, and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Modification Agreement, such guarantees, pledges, grants of security interests and mortgages and other obligations, and the terms of each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, are not impaired or affected in any manner whatsoever and shall continue to be in full force and effect after giving effect to this Modification Agreement.

(b) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Modification Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Agent or any Lender under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor constitute amendment of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, except as specifically set forth herein. Upon the Effective Date of this Modification Agreement, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as revised hereby.

(c) Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that the revisions, waivers and consents set forth herein are effective solely for the purposes set forth herein and shall not be deemed (i) except as expressly provided in this Modification Agreement, to be a consent by the Agent or any Lender to any amendment, waiver or modification of any term or condition of the Credit Agreement or of any other Loan Document, (ii) to create a course of dealing or otherwise obligate the Agent or Lenders to forbear, waive, consent or execute similar revisions or waivers under the same or similar circumstances in the future, or (iii) to amend, prejudice, relinquish or impair any right of the Agent or Lenders to receive any indemnity or similar payment from any Person or entity as a result of any matter arising from or relating to this Modification Agreement.

(d) This Modification Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each such counterpart constituting an original but all together one and the same instrument. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Modification Agreement by fax shall also deliver an original executed counterpart, but the failure to do so shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of this Modification Agreement.

(e) In case any provision in or obligation under this Modification Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(f) This Modification Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

(g) Without limiting the general applicability of Section 8.2 of the Credit Agreement, the Credit Parties agree to reimburse the Agent for the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of counsel in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Modification Agreement.

(i) Section headings in this Modification Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Modification Agreement for any other purposes.

(j) THE VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS MODIFICATION AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.
