ARTICLE 2 PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE SHARES -2- 6 2.1 Purchase and Sale of Shares.

The Purchase Price payable to each Selling Stockholder is listed on Annex A. In the event the transaction closes after April 30, 1997, the price per share shall be increased by an amount computed like interest, accruing from and after May 1, 1997 to the actual closing date and using the Adjustment Rate. For example, if the closing occurs on May 30, 1997, the price per share will be $7.69, computed by multiplying the price per share by the Adjustment Rate, multiplying that product by a fraction with 30 as the numerator and 365 as the denominator, and adding the original price per share to the result of the previous computation. 2.2 Closing. The purchase and sale of the Shares (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of Alston & Bird, Atlanta, Georgia, at 10 a.m., local time, within three (3) business days after the fulfillment of all conditions of closing, but no later than June 1, 1997, or at such other place, time and date as each such Selling Stockholder and the Purchaser may agree in writing (the "Closing Date"). On the Closing Date, each such Selling Stockholder shall deliver to the Purchaser stock certificates, duly endorsed for transfer and accompanied by all requisite transfer taxes, if any, representing the Shares being purchased by the Purchaser from such Selling Stockholder, against delivery of the Purchase Price for such Shares by wire transfer of immediately available funds representing payment in full by the Purchaser for the Shares. Each such Selling Stockholder shall give instructions for the wire transfer. 2.3 Additional Purchase Price. Purchaser shall promptly pay to each Selling Shareholder an additional purchase price under the following facts and conditions: (a) Purchaser or an affiliate thereof (i) initiates a public tender offer subject to the provisions of Sections 14D and 14E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder ("Tender Offer") for more than 1,000,000 additional shares of Common Stock or (ii) acquires the Company in a merger or comparable transaction, in either instance prior to the anniversary date one year from the closing date of this Agreement, and, with respect to the Tender Offer, pays to the stockholders of Company for the shares of Common Stock acquired in the Tender Offer a purchase price per share in excess of the adjusted price per share of Common Stock paid hereunder or, with respect to such acquisition, distributes consideration with respect to each share of Common Stock that is in excess of the adjusted price per share of Common Stock paid hereunder. (b) In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased or decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company by reason of recapitalization, reclassification, stock split up, combination of shares, stock dividend or transaction having similar effect, (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock referred to in paragraph (a), (ii) the price per share of Common Stock -3- 7 paid hereunder and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock purchased hereunder shall be proportionately, reasonably and appropriately adjusted by the Purchaser for the purpose of this Section 2.3. As a result of the adjustments, the adjusted number of shares times the adjusted price per share must equal the actual aggregate purchase price paid hereunder for the Shares of the Common Stock. (c) In the event the Company is engaged in any merger, sale of stock, consolidation, or liquidation with a Person other than Purchaser, whereby its Common Stock is after any such event no longer publicly traded, this Section 2.3 shall lapse and be of no further force and effect. (d) The additional purchase price per share of Common Stock will be equal to (i) the Tender Offer purchase price per share or the acquisition consideration per share, as the case may be, less (ii) the sum of the (A) price per share of Common Stock paid hereunder, as adjusted pursuant to paragraph (b), plus (B) interest thereon at the Adjustment Rate for the period between the closing of this Agreement and the closing of the Tender Offer. The additional purchase price for each Selling Stockholder shall be the additional purchase price per share times the adjusted number of shares of Common Stock sold by each such Selling Stockholder. The aggregate additional purchase price shall be the additional purchase price per share times the adjusted number of shares of Common Stock of all Selling Stockholders and such aggregate additional purchase price shall be allocated among the Selling Stockholders as provided above. (e) Such additional purchase price for each Selling Stockholder will be paid to each Selling Stockholder as promptly as possible after the closing of the tender offer and will bear interest from the closing of the tender offer until paid at the Adjustment Rate.
