Each such Interim Period shall be treated as a short taxable year and a Pre-Effective Tax Period for purposes of this Section 6.6(b). In any case where applicable law does not permit the Company or the relevant Subsidiary to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a Straddle Period the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the Interim Period shall be: (A) in the case of Taxes that are either (1) based upon, measured by or related to income or receipts, or (2) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the Straddle Period ended at the end of the day on the Closing Date (except that, solely for purposes of determining the marginal tax rate applicable to income or receipts during such period in a jurisdiction in which such tax rate depends upon the level of income or receipts, annualized income or receipts shall be taken into account, if appropriate, for an equitable sharing of such Taxes); and (B) in the case of Taxes not described in subparagraph (A) above that are imposed on a periodic basis or measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Interim Period and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant period. (C) Notwithstanding (A) and (B) above, Purchaser shall be responsible for Texas franchise taxes for privilege periods of the Company and the Subsidiaries that begin on or after the Closing Date; provided; however, that Seller shall be responsible for Texas franchise tax due and payable for the Company and Subsidiaries -21- ( x) attributable to Texas net taxable earned surplus for the period ending at the end of the day on the Closing Date, computed as if the Closing Date were the end of the taxable period, and ( y) with respect to the first Texas franchise taxes returns due after the Closing Date, attributable to Texas net taxable capital to the extent the Texas franchise tax on net taxable capital exceeds, in the aggregate, $15,000. For purposes of ( y) of the preceding sentence, total taxable capital of the Company and each of the Subsidiaries shall be calculated as of the Closing Date, immediately before the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and shall not include any amounts contributed or deemed contributed to capital of the Company in satisfaction of the requirements of Section 4.7 of this Agreement. (D) Any other Tax due or payable by Seller shall be computed without regard to any Tax elections made or deemed to be made by the Purchaser during the Straddle Period. (c) Purchaser's Tax Indemnity. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall promptly indemnify, protect, defend, exculpate and hold the Seller Indemnified Parties harmless from and against, and agrees to promptly defend the Seller Indemnified Parties from and reimburse Seller Indemnified Parties for, the following amounts: (A) Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Company or the Subsidiaries for taxable years beginning after the Closing Date; (B) Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Company or the Subsidiaries for the portion of a Straddle Period that begins on the day following the Closing Date and (C) all actual losses, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and claims of any kind (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of investigation, reasonable attorneys' fees and other reasonable legal costs and expenses) that Seller Indemnified Parties may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of or in connection with any of the foregoing. (d) Mutual Cooperation. As soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after the request of Seller or Purchaser, the other party shall, or shall cause the Company or the Relevant Subsidiary to, deliver to the requesting party such information and other data relating to the Tax Returns and Taxes of the Company or any Subsidiary, and shall provide such other assistance as may reasonably be requested, to cause the timely completion and filing of all Tax Returns, to respond promptly to inquiries, audits or examinations by any taxing authorities with respect to any Tax Returns or taxable periods or to otherwise enable Seller, Purchaser, the Company and the Subsidiaries. For a period of seven (7) years from and after the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser, shall, and shall cause their affiliates to, maintain and make available to the other party, on such other party's reasonable request and at such other party's expense, copies of any and all information, books and records referred to in this Section 6.6(d). After such seven-year period, Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, may dispose of such information, books and records, provided, however, that prior to such disposition, it has given the other party the opportunity, at such other party's expense, to take possession of such information, books and records held by Seller, Purchaser or their respective affiliates, as the case may be. -22- (e) Contests. Whenever any taxing authority provides notice of an inquiry, audit, examination, proceeding or makes a written assertion of a claim for or dispute regarding, or assessment of, Taxes (a "Tax Claim") for which Seller is liable or required to provide indemnification under this Agreement, Purchaser shall, if informed of such notice of an inquiry, audit, examination, proceeding, assertion or assessment, inform Seller within fifteen (15) calendar days; provided, however, that any failure to inform Seller shall not relieve Seller of its obligation to provide the indemnity required hereunder as to such Tax Claim except to the extent that such failure has materially prejudiced Seller's ability to defend such Tax Claim. Seller shall have the right to control any resulting inquiry, audit, examination or proceedings and to determine whether and when to settle any resulting claim, assessment or dispute to the extent such inquiry, audit, examination, proceedings or determinations affect the amount of Taxes for which Seller is liable or required to provide indemnification under this Agreement (including those attributable to the Straddle Period); provided, however, that (A) Seller shall have acknowledged that it is liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for such Taxes under Section 6.6(b) (or the applicable portion of Taxes for such period, in the case of Taxes attributable to the Straddle Period); (B) Seller shall conduct such proceedings in a commercially reasonable manner; (C) Purchaser, the Company and the Subsidiaries may participate in such proceedings at their own expense; (D) Seller shall not compromise or settle, or agree to compromise or settle, any Tax Claim without Purchaser's consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (E) if Seller does not so elect, Purchaser shall control the prosecution and defense of such Tax Claim, which shall be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner; and (F) if Purchaser so elects, it may override Seller's election to control the prosecution and defense of such Tax Claim, in which case the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be deemed to have waived their rights to indemnification for such Tax Claim. Whenever any taxing authority makes a Tax Claim for which Purchaser is liable or required to provide indemnification under this Agreement, Seller shall, if informed of such notice of an inquiry, audit, examination, proceeding, assertion or assessment, inform Purchaser within fifteen (15) calendar days; provided, however, that any failure to inform Purchaser shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligation to provide the indemnity required hereunder as to such Tax Claim except to the extent that such failure has materially prejudiced Purchaser's ability to defend such Tax Claim. Purchaser shall have the right to control all proceedings relating to Tax Claims (1) that Seller does not have the right to control under this Section 6.6(e) or (2) that do not relate exclusively to Taxes of the Company or the Subsidiaries for Pre-Effective Tax Periods or the Straddle Period; provided, however, that to the extent a Tax Claim could reasonably be expected to materially affect the amount of Taxes for which Seller is liable under or required to provide indemnification under this Agreement, (1) Purchaser shall conduct such proceedings in a commercially reasonable manner; and (2) Purchaser shall not compromise or settle, or agree to compromise or settle, such Tax Claim without Seller's consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). (f) Tax Returns. (i) Pre-Effective Tax Returns. Seller shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all income and franchise Tax Returns that include, or are required to be filed by, the Company or any Subsidiary for all Pre-Effective Tax Periods. Seller shall pay all -23- costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith. Purchaser shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and consent to such Tax Returns prior to filing, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Seller shall pay the Taxes shown as due and owing on such Tax Returns for which the Seller is responsible under Section 6.6(b). Notwithstanding sub-paragraph (i) above, Purchaser shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, any and all Georgia Net Worth Tax Return(s) due during 2006 and Purchaser shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, Delaware and Texas franchise Tax Returns for the Company and the Subsidiaries for periods beginning after the Closing Date as well as any registration statements and related payments applicable to CMCP Williamsburg, CMCP Roswell, CMCP Pine Castle, CMCP Florida and CMCP Island Lake. (ii) All Other Tax Returns. The Company and the Subsidiaries shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all of their other Tax Returns. To the extent that any such other Tax Returns relate to any Taxes for which Seller is responsible or required to provide indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, (A) Seller shall be given reasonable opportunity to review such Tax Returns and (B) at least five (5) days prior to the due date for payment of such Taxes, Seller shall pay to Purchaser (or to such persons as Purchaser directs) an amount equal to the portion of such Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 6.6(b). (g) Certificates. Seller and Purchaser further agree, upon request, to use their best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental entity or any other person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. (h) Resolution of Disagreements Between Seller and Purchaser. If either Seller or Purchaser disagrees as to the amount of Taxes for which it is liable or required to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the parties shall promptly consult each other to resolve such dispute following the receipt of written notice from either party to begin such consultation (the "Consultation Notice"). If any such point of disagreement cannot be resolved within twenty (20) days of the date of the Consultation Notice, the parties shall, within ten (10) days after such period, jointly select a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm or law firm with no material relationship to either of the parties to act as an arbitrator to resolve, within forty-five (45) calendar days after its selection, all points of disagreement concerning Tax matters with respect to this Agreement and presented to such accounting firm or law firm at the time of its selection. Such resolution shall be based on documents, certificates and information provided by the parties and not on independent investigation. If the parties cannot agree on the selection of an accounting or law firm within such ten-day period, they shall cause their respective accounting firms or law firms to select such firm within seven (7) calendar days after the end of such ten-day period. Any such resolution shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. The fees of such independent public accounting firm or law firm shall be divided equally between Seller and Purchaser. The parties shall (and shall cause the Company and the Subsidiaries to) provide to such firm full cooperation. -24- (i) Treatment of Indemnification Payments. The parties hereto agree to treat all indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all income Tax purposes and to take no position contrary thereto in any Tax Return or audit or examination by, or proceeding before, any taxing authority, except as required by a change in law or a "determination" as defined in Section 1313 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. (j) Scope and Survival. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.6 (and not the provisions of Sections 6.1 - 6.5) shall govern with respect to the Taxes; the obligations of the parties set forth in this Section 6.6 shall be unconditional and absolute, shall not be subject to any limitation contained in this Agreement (other than in this Section 6.6) and shall remain in effect until ninety (90) days after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations (including valid extensions thereof); provided, however, that if prior to the close of business on the last day of the applicable Claims Period, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified as provided hereunder of a claim for indemnity hereunder and such claim shall not have been finally resolved or disposed of at such date, such claim shall continue to survive and shall remain a basis for indemnity hereunder until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms hereof. If any act, omission, disclosure or failure to disclosure shall form the basis for a claim for breach of more than one representation or warranty, and such claims have different periods of survival hereunder, the termination of the survival period of one claim shall not affect a party's right to make a claim based on the breach of representation or warranty still surviving. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to the close of business on the last day of the applicable Claims Period, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified as provided hereunder of a claim for indemnity hereunder and such claim shall not have been finally resolved or disposed of at such date, such claim shall continue to survive and shall remain a basis for indemnity hereunder until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms hereof. If any act, omission, disclosure or failure to disclosure shall form the basis for a claim for breach of more than one representation or warranty, and such claims have different periods of survival hereunder, the termination of the survival period of one claim shall not affect a party's right to make a claim based on the breach of representation or warranty still surviving. ARTICLE VII. CONDITIONS TO THE OBLIGATIONS OF PURCHASER Each and every obligation of Purchaser under this Agreement, except for Purchaser's obligations to be fulfilled prior to the Closing and obligations that survive termination of this Agreement, shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Closing, of each of the following conditions, unless waived in writing by Purchaser.

Purchaser shall have performed and complied -26- with all covenants required by this Agreement and the Related Documents to be performed and complied with by Purchaser on or prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall have delivered to Seller a certificate of Purchaser executed by its President (and if Purchaser's nominee is a limited liability company, executed by its manager), dated the Closing Date, substantially in the form of Exhibit 8.1, certifying to such compliance and completion with no changes noted therein. 8.2 Required Consents.

ARTICLE X. TERMINATION AND ABANDONMENT 10.1 Method of Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions herein contemplated may be abandoned at any time on or before the Closing: (a) by mutual written consent of all of the parties hereto; or (b) pursuant to the provisions of ARTICLE VII and ARTICLE VIII. 10.2 Procedure Upon Termination. In the event of termination and abandonment pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof, this Agreement shall terminate and shall be abandoned, without further action by any of the parties hereto. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason: -28- (a) Each of the parties will redeliver all documents and other material of any other party relating to the transactions contemplated hereby to the party furnishing the same; (b) All information received by any party hereto with respect to the business of any other party (other than information which is a matter of public knowledge or which has heretofore been or is hereafter published in any publication for public distribution or filed as public information with any governmental authority) shall not at any time be used for the advantage of, or disclosed to third parties by, such party to the detriment of the party furnishing such information, but only as relate to Facilities for which this Agreement was terminated; (c) Other than on the basis of a breach of this Agreement prior to its termination, no party hereto shall have any liability or further obligation to any other party to this Agreement other than the parties' respective obligations to pay costs and expenses as provided herein. 10.3 Effect of Termination; Remedies for Default.

If on or prior to December 30, 2005, Purchaser is ready, willing and able to close (including having immediately available funds to close), including, if applicable, willing to waive any unsatisfied conditions to closing set forth in Article VII, and is not otherwise in default under the terms of this Agreement, and Seller refuses to proceed to Closing or refuses to effect the transfer of the Shares to Purchaser, then Purchaser may specifically enforce this Agreement; provided, that any action by Purchaser for specific performance must be commenced, if at all, within sixty (60) days of Seller's default, the failure of which shall constitute a waiver by Purchaser of such right and remedy. If Purchaser shall not have commenced an action for specific performance within the aforementioned time period or so notified Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement, then Purchaser's sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement; provided that Seller shall be liable to Purchaser for any actual damages of Purchaser as a result of Seller's refusal to close and/or transfer the Shares. In the event Purchaser commences an equitable action for specific performance, Seller hereby acknowledges that Purchaser does not have an adequate remedy at law and that injunctive relief and specific performance will not constitute a hardship to Seller. In addition, in the event that a party prevails under any action under this Section 10.3(a), the other party shall pay to the prevailing party all its cost and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees incurred in pursuing such action. (b) Purchaser Defaults. In the event that Purchaser shall not complete closing under this Agreement even though the conditions benefiting Purchaser under ARTICLE VII hereof were satisfied, and neither party has otherwise terminated this Agreement pursuant to an express right to terminate as herein provided, and Seller is not in default hereunder, then Purchaser shall be liable to Seller for any actual damages of Seller as a result of such breach. -29- ARTICLE XI.

Any failure of Seller on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, to comply with any obligation, covenant agreement or condition herein may be waived in writing by Purchaser, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

No assignment hereof shall release Purchaser from its obligations hereunder and Purchaser and all of Purchaser's assignees pursuant to this Section 11.6 shall be jointly and severally liable for all of Purchaser's obligations hereunder.
