We have participated in the preparation and negotiation of the Agreement and the Exhibits and Schedules thereto, and the other documents referred to therein.  We also have examined such certificates of public officials, corporate documents and records and other certificates, opinions, agreements and instruments and have made such other investigations as we have deemed necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth.  Specifically, we have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents:

We have also reviewed a certificate of an officer of the Company delivered to us (the "Officer's Certificate"), the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company and originals or copies of such other records of the Company, certificates of public officers and of officers of the Company and agreements and other documents as we have been informed by the Company exist and deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

(C)
The conformity to authentic originals of any documents submitted to us as copies.

Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

4


(a)          Our opinions set forth herein are subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers), (ii) possible judicial action giving effect to governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors rights, and (iii) the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
 
(b)          Our opinion in paragraph 4 is subject to the qualification that certain of the provisions of the Security Agreement may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but in our opinion such law does not make the remedies afforded by the Security Agreement inadequate for the practical realization of the principal benefits purported to be provided thereby.
 
(c)          We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of indemnification provisions, or of release or exculpation provisions, contained in the Opinion Documents to the extent that enforcement thereof is contrary to public policy regarding indemnification against or release or exculpation of criminal violations, intentional harm, or violations of securities laws.

(d)           We express no opinion as to any provision of any Opinion Document requiring written amendments or waivers of any such document insofar as it suggests that oral or other modifications, amendments or waivers could not effectively be agreed upon by the parties or that the doctrine of promissory estoppel might not apply.

(e)           We express no opinion with regard to the following:  (i) state or federal antitrust laws, (ii) state securities laws, (iii) tax laws or the effect thereof on any party to any Opinion Document, (iv) environmental laws, (v) zoning laws, (vi) labor or employment laws or (vii) other documents, instruments or other agreements or other transactions between or among any of the parties to the Opinion Documents.

(f)           We have assumed that all information relating to the Purchasers, as secured parties, as set forth in the Debentures or Security Agreement is accurate and complete, that “value” has been given within the meaning of Section 9-203(b) of the Georgia Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”), and that the Company has rights in that portion of the Collateral described in the Security Agreement, to the extent collateral is subject to Article 9 of the UCC, and that the Company has rights in the Collateral sufficient in each case for the security interest of the Purchasers to attach and that the Company and the Purchasers have not otherwise agreed to postpone the time of attachment.
 
(g)           We have made no investigation as to the Company’s rights in or title to any of the collateral, and express no opinion as to such title or as to the priority of the lien, security interests or security title created by the Security Agreement or the existence or nonexistence of liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances on or against the Company or Collateral, whether or not of record.  We have not independently verified the existence, description, condition, location or ownership of any of the Collateral and have assumed that the description of the Collateral reasonably identifies the personal property intended to be described.

5


(h)           We do not express any opinion as to (1) matters excluded from Article 9 of the UCC by virtue of Section 9-109; (2) any security interest that is terminated or released; (3) the effect of fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws; (4) any security interest in fixtures, as-extracted collateral, aircraft, motor vehicles or other goods covered by certificates of title, tort claims, consumer goods, securities entitlements, a securities account, a commodity account or property that is not assignable as a matter of contract or under applicable laws or regulations; (5) the enforceability of a security interest against subsequent purchasers or transferees under the circumstances described in Sections 9-317, 9-320 and 9-321 of the UCC or the effects of Sections 9-330, 9-331, 9-332 and 9-516(b) of the UCC; (6) provisions of the Opinion Documents which purport to appoint the Purchasers or Secured Parties as the attorney-in-fact or proxy for the Company or provide for the appointment of a receiver for Company; and (7) perfection of any security interest in collateral for which the State of Georgia is not the proper place to file a financing statement.
 
(i)           We express no opinion as to the enforceability of provisions of the Opinion Documents (A) which purport to or permit the Purchasers to give notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition for a period or in a manner which may be deemed to be unreasonable or (B) to the extent that such provisions purport to constitute an agreement prior to default that the sale of Collateral thereunder shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner or (C) which purport to waive or vary any of the rules enumerated in Sections 9-602 or 9-603(b) of the UCC to the extent prohibited thereby or (D) which purport to operate as a waiver of the obligations of good faith, fair dealing, diligence and reasonableness or (E) would result in a breach of the peace or be contrary to applicable laws in connection with the exercise of self-help remedies.
 
The Opinions expressed herein are limited to the laws of the State of Georgia and applicable federal laws of the United States, in force and effect on the date hereof.  We express no opinion with regard to any matter which may be governed by the laws of any other jurisdiction.  References herein to the UCC or any other law mean such laws as enacted by the State of Georgia, unless otherwise indicated.  We call your attention to the fact that some of the Opinion Documents state that they are governed by law other than that of the State of Georgia, and that we are not rendering any opinion with respect to law other than Georgia law.  Therefore, we have not examined the question of what law would govern the interpretation, construction or enforcement of the Opinion Documents and our opinion is based on the assumption that the internal laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its choice-of-law principles, and federal law, as applicable, would govern the provisions of the Opinion Documents and the transaction contemplated thereby.  Accordingly, we express no opinion as to the enforceability of the choice of law provisions in the Opinion Documents.

This opinion is addressed to you and is solely for your benefit and only in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement.  This opinion is (a) limited to matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated herein, (b) given as of the date hereof and with the express understanding that we have no obligation to advise you or any of your successors or assigns of any changes in law or fact subsequent to the date hereof, even though such changes may affect the opinions expressed herein, and (c) rendered to you solely in connection with the subject transaction and may not be relied upon by you or by any other person for any other purpose or sued, quoted, circulated or otherwise referred to for any other purposes.
 

  Very truly yours,
