other information executed and/or delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to or in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement and/or the Asset Acquisition, collectively, the “Asset Acquisition Documents”), and
(2) for working capital purposes. The entering into and funding of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities and all related transactions are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Transaction.” To the extent not otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Existing Credit Agreement or, as the context may require, the
Existing Loan Documents. This Amended and Restated Commitment Letter amends and restates and replaces in its entirety that certain Commitment Letter between SVB and the Borrower dated August 29, 2016 (the “Original Commitment
Letter”). 
 1. In connection with the foregoing, (a) SVB is pleased to advise you of its commitment to act as the sole administrative
agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”), a joint lead arranger (in such capacity, the “SVB Arranger” and, together with the other joint lead arranger named herein, collectively, the
“Arrangers”), and the sole bookrunner for the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, all upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this letter (this “Amended and Restated Commitment
Letter”) and in the Summary of Terms and Conditions attached as Exhibit A hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Summary of Terms”), (b) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

Commitment Letter and the Summary of Terms, (c) Bank of America, N.A. is pleased to advise you of its commitment to act as sole syndication agent for the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, all upon and subject to the terms set

all upon and subject to the terms set forth in this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter and the Summary of Terms. 
 2. In connection with the foregoing,
and subject to the terms and conditions of this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter and the Summary of Terms: 
 (a) SVB is pleased to
advise you of its commitment to provide $45,000,000 in aggregate commitments under the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, which commitments will be applied 66.59% to the term loan facility and 33.41% to the revolving loan
facility (the “SVB Commitment”); 
 (b) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. is pleased to advise you of its commitment to

 (c) Bank of America, N.A. is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide $30,910,000 in aggregate

 (d) Cadence Bank, N.A. is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide $25,000,000 in
aggregate commitments under the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, which commitments will be applied 66.59% to the term loan facility and 33.41% to the revolving loan facility (the “Cadence Commitment”
and, together with the SVB Commitment, the JPM Commitment, and the Bank of America Commitment, each a “Lender Commitment” and collectively, the “Lender Commitments”, with SVB, JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A., Bank of America, N.A., and Cadence Bank, N.A. being referred to herein as the “Lenders”). 
 For the avoidance of doubt,
subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lender Commitments shall remain in effect until the occurrence of the Termination Date (as defined below), after which date such Lender Commitments shall expire and terminate. Each of the Lenders
acknowledges that it has made its own independent analysis and decision to enter into its respective Lender Commitment based on the financial statements of the Borrower and its affiliates and such other documents and information as such Lender has
deemed appropriate, without relying on the Agent, any Arranger, any affiliate of the Agent or any Arranger, or any directors, officers, employees, advisors, attorneys, agents or other representatives of the Agent or any Arranger. Each of the
Lenders acknowledges that is has had the opportunity to request documents and information from the Borrower. 
 You acknowledge and agree that, in order to
achieve the Target Hold (as defined below) of each Lender, any Lender (a “Reducing Lender”) may allocate or assign, as applicable, a portion of its Lender Commitment to any other Lender or any other prospective lender after
consultation with you (a “Prospective Lender”) that provides an Additional Commitment (as defined below) in respect of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities either prior to or after the effective date of
the definitive financing documentation for the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities (the “Financing Documentation”), and that any such allocation or assignment to such Prospective Lender that provides such
Additional Commitment shall reduce the amount of the Lender Commitment of such Reducing Lender on a dollar-for-dollar basis; provided that the Lender Commitment of such Reducing Lender shall not be so reduced unless (i) such Prospective
Lender shall have executed a joinder to this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter that is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Agent, and (ii) after giving effect to any such reduction in the Lender Commitment of such Reducing Lender, (A)
the commitments having been obtained from such Reducing Lender and such Prospective Lenders aggregate to at least the original Lender Commitment of such Reducing Lender, and (B) the resulting amount of the JPM Commitment shall not exceed the
resulting amount of the SVB Commitment. For purposes hereof, the Target Hold of each Lender means that such Lender shall individually hold the following amount (but in no event less than such amount) of the aggregate Lender Commitments under
the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities: 
  

					
	 SVB:
	  	$	40,000,000	  
	 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.:
	  	$	30,000,000	  
	 Bank of America, N.A.:
	  	$	30,910,000	  
	 Cadence Bank, N.A.:
	  	$	25,000,000	  

 For purposes hereof, “Additional Commitments” shall mean any commitments (for the avoidance of doubt,
other than the SVB Commitment, the JPM Commitment, the Bank of America Commitment, and the Cadence Commitment, that are obtained from Prospective Lenders prior to the date on which the Target Hold of each Lender is achieved. Upon the issuance
of an Additional Commitment by a Prospective Lender, the execution by such Prospective Lender of a joinder to this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, and the allocation or assignment by any Reducing Lender to such Prospective Lender of any
portion of such Reducing Lender’s Lender Commitment, such Prospective Lender shall be deemed to be a “Lender” hereunder.

 3. You hereby agree that, effective upon your acceptance of this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter and
continuing through the earlier of (a) the date on which the Target Hold of each Lender has been achieved in accordance with the terms hereof, (b)(i) if the Closing Date occurs, the date occurring 60 days after the Closing Date, and
(ii) if the Closing Date does not occur, the Termination Date (such period being the “No Shop Period”), neither you nor any of your subsidiaries or affiliates shall solicit any other bank, investment bank, financial
institution, person or entity to provide, structure, arrange or syndicate any component of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any other senior financing similar to or as a replacement of any component of the Amended and
Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities. 
 4. The Lender Commitments hereunder, and the continuing undertaking of SVB to act as Agent, Arranger and sole
bookrunner and to provide the services described herein, of JPM to act as joint lead arranger, of Bank of America, N.A. to act as sole syndication agent, and of Cadence Bank, N.A. to serve as documentation agent, are subject to the satisfaction of
each of the following conditions precedent:
 (a) subject to the Certain Funds Provision (as defined below), the accuracy and
completeness in all material respects of all representations that the Borrower and each of its respective affiliates makes to the Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders herein (including, without limitation, with respect to the Acquired Assets and the
Asset Acquisition) and the Borrower’s compliance with the terms of this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter (including the Summary of Terms) and the Amended and Restated Fee Letter, of near or even date herewith, between the Borrower and the
Agent (the “Amended and Restated Fee Letter”); 
 (b) during the No-Shop Period, there shall be no
competing offering, placement or arrangement of any debt securities or bank financing by or on behalf of any of the Loan Parties; 

(c) the negotiation, execution and delivery of definitive Financing Documentation for the Amended and Restated Senior Secured
Credit Facilities, consistent with this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter and the Summary of Terms attached hereto and reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and the Lenders; 

(d) no change, occurrence or development shall have occurred or become known to the Agent since June 30, 2016, that has had or
that could reasonably be expected to have a “Credit Facility Material Adverse Effect” (as such term is defined in the Summary of Terms attached hereto), or, since the date of the Asset Purchase Agreement, that has had or that could
reasonably be expected to have an “APA Material Adverse Effect” (as such term is defined in the Summary of Terms attached hereto); and 

(e) the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in the section labeled “Conditions Precedent to Closing
Date” in the Summary of Terms (which shall be subject to the Certain Funds Provision). 
 Those matters that are not
covered by the provisions hereof and of the Summary of Terms are subject to the approval and agreement of the Agent and the Lenders (which will not be unreasonably withheld).

 Notwithstanding anything in this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, the Summary of Terms
attached hereto, the Amended and Restated Fee Letter, the Financing Documentation or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Asset Acquisition contemplated hereby to the contrary, (a) the only
representations the making of and accuracy of which shall be a condition to availability of the Loans on the Closing Date shall be (i) such of the representations made by the Asset Seller in respect of the Acquired Assets in the Asset Purchase
Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you have the right to terminate your obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement (or decline to consummate the Asset Acquisition) as a result of the breach of
such representations in the Asset Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Seller Representations”), and (ii) the Specified Representations (as defined below), and (b) the terms of the Financing Documentation shall be
in a form such that they do not impair the availability of the Loans on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth in this paragraph 4 and in the section labeled “Conditions Precedent to Closing Date” in the Summary of Terms are
satisfied (it being understood that, to the extent that the perfection of any security interests of the Agent (held for the ratable benefit of the Lenders) in any of the Acquired Assets is not or cannot be provided on the Closing Date (other than in
any Acquired Assets with respect to which a security interest may be perfected by means of (x) the filing of a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement, (y) the delivery of certificated securities, or (z) the filing of a notice
with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office), after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, the perfection of such security interests in such Acquired Assets shall not constitute a condition
precedent to the availability of the Loans on the Closing Date but shall be required to be provided within 30 days (or such longer period to which the Agent may agree) after the Closing Date pursuant to arrangements to be mutually agreed between the
Borrower and the Agent); provided that any failure for any reason (other than due solely to any action or inaction on the part of the Agent) to perfect such security interests in such Acquired Assets within such 30 day period (or such longer
period to which the Agent may agree) shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” shall mean all of the representations
of each Loan Party specified in the Financing Documentation, which representations shall be required to be made and which representations shall be required to be accurate, in each case, as conditions precedent to the availability of Loans on the
Closing Date, excluding any representations and warranties concerning the Asset Acquisition and the Acquired Assets. This paragraph shall be referred to herein as the “Certain Funds Provision”. 

5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, nothing shall prevent the Agent and each Arranger from
continuing their syndication efforts in respect of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities after the date hereof to achieve the Target Hold of each Lender. You agree to assist the Agent and each Arranger in achieving a
syndication of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities that achieves each Lender’s Target Hold and that is satisfactory to the Agent, each Lender (solely with respect to its Lender Commitment) and to you. Such assistance
shall include using your commercially reasonable efforts to (a) provide and cause your advisors to provide the Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders and any other Prospective Lenders, upon request, with all information reasonably deemed necessary
by the Agent or the Arrangers to continue such syndication efforts, including, but not limited to, information and evaluations prepared by you and your advisors, or on your or its behalf, relating to the Transaction (including the Projections (as
hereinafter defined), the “Information”), (b) assist in the (i) preparation of materials to be used in connection with the original syndication of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities or
(ii) updating of materials to be used in connection with any such continuing syndication efforts (collectively with the Summary of Terms, the “Information Materials”), (c) ensure that the syndication efforts of the
Agent and the Arrangers benefit from your existing lending and banking relationships, and (d) otherwise assist the Agent and the Arrangers in their syndication efforts to achieve each Lender’s Target Hold, including by making your officers
and advisors available from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to attend and make presentations regarding the business and prospects of the Loan Parties, the Acquired Assets and the Asset Acquisition, as appropriate, at one or more meetings
of Prospective Lenders.

 6. It is understood and agreed that the Agent will manage and control all aspects of the syndication of the
Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities in consultation with you and, solely with respect to each Lender Commitment, the respective Lender, including decisions as to the selection of Prospective Lenders and any titles offered to
Prospective Lenders, when Additional Commitments will be accepted from, and the final allocations of the Additional Commitments among, such Prospective Lenders. It is also understood that no Prospective Lender will receive compensation from you
in order to obtain its Additional Commitment, except on the terms contained herein, in the attached Summary of Terms and in the Amended and Restated Fee Letter. It is also understood and agreed that the amount and distribution of the fees among
the Lenders and any Prospective Lenders (other than with respect to any Ticking Fees, the allocation and distribution of which is contemplated in Section 7 hereof) will be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Agent. No additional
agents, co-agents or arrangers will be appointed and no other titles will be awarded without the prior written approval of the Agent, after consultation with the Borrower. 

7. As consideration for the Lender Commitments under this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter (and, as applicable, any Additional Commitments of Prospective
Lenders obtained prior to the Closing Date), and only in the event that the Closing Date (as defined in the attached Summary of Terms) fails to occur by September 30, 2016, you agree to pay to the Agent, for distribution to the Lenders (and, as
applicable, any such Prospective Lenders which provide Additional Commitments prior to the Closing Date on a pro rata basis in accordance with the final allocated amounts of the commitments of such Lenders and Prospective Lenders under this Amended
and Restated Commitment Letter, the following ticking fees (each, a “Ticking Fee”): (a) a Ticking Fee at the rate of .50% per annum on the aggregate principal amount of the Lender Commitments in effect from time to
time from and after September 30, 2016 to the Termination Date (it being understood that the respective amount of the Lender Commitment of any Lender may be decreased from time to time pursuant to allocations made by such Lender (in accordance with
the terms and provisions of this Commitment Letter) to achieve its Target Hold, and that any Ticking Fees calculated with respect to such Lender’s Commitment from and after the date of any such allocation shall take into account any such
reductions in the amount of its Lender Commitment), and (b) a Ticking Fee at a rate of .50% per annum on the aggregate amount of any Additional Commitments in effect from time to time from and after September 30, 2016 to the Termination Date.
In the event that the Closing Date fails to occur by September 30, 2016, such Ticking Fees in respect of each Lender and Prospective Lender that provides Additional Commitments prior to the Closing Date shall accrue from and including September 30,
2016 (or, as applicable, from and including any applicable date occurring after September 30, 2016 and prior to the Closing Date on which any such other Additional Commitments are obtained) to but excluding the Termination Date, and shall be payable
in full in immediately available cash on the Termination Date. The Borrower hereby agrees that all such Ticking Fees that are payable hereunder shall be fully earned on the date payable and non-refundable for any reason (including as a result
of any failure to consummate the Asset Acquisition or otherwise to satisfy any of the conditions to the Closing Date specified in this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter and in the Summary of Terms attached thereto). 

8. You represent and warrant to the Agent, each Arranger and each Lender that (to your knowledge, with respect to information regarding the Acquired Assets)
(a) all financial projections and other forward looking information concerning the Loan Parties and the Acquired Assets that have been or are hereafter made available to the Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders by the Borrower or any of its
representatives (or on your or their behalf) (the “Projections”) have been or will be based on good faith reasonable assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made (it being understood that such
Projections are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such Projections may differ from the projected results, and such differences may be material), and (b) all Information, other than
Projections and information of a general economic and general industry nature, which has been or is hereafter made available to the Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders by you or any of 

  
 6 

 
your representatives (or on your or their behalf) in connection with any aspect of the Transaction, as and when furnished, is and will be, when taken as a whole, complete and correct in all
material respects and does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. 

9. You agree to furnish the Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders with further and supplemental information from time to time until the date of the initial
borrowing under the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities (the “Closing Date”) and, if requested by the Agent or any Arranger, during the remainder of the No Shop Period as is necessary to complete the
syndication of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities to each Lender’s Target Hold, so that the representations and warranties specified in the immediately preceding paragraph 8 are correct on the Closing Date and on
such later date on which a syndication of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities achieving each Lender’s Target Hold is completed, as if the Information were being furnished, and such representations and warranties were being
made on such date. In issuing their Lender Commitments and in SVB’s arrangement and syndication of the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Agent and each Lender is and will be using and relying on the Information
without independent verification thereof. 
 10. By executing this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, you agree to reimburse the Agent and the SVB
Arranger from time to time on demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities (including, but not limited to, (a) the reasonable fees, disbursements
and other charges of Morrison & Foerster, LLP, as counsel to the Agent and the SVB Arranger, and of special and local counsel to the Lenders (if any) retained by the Agent in connection with the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit
Facilities (collectively, the “Lender Counsel”), and (b) due diligence expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of the Original Commitment Letter (and the Summary of Terms attached thereto), this Amended and
Restated Commitment Letter (and the Summary of Terms attached hereto), the Original Fee Letter (as defined in the Amended and Restated Fee Letter), the Amended and Restated Fee Letter, the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the
syndication thereof and the preparation of the definitive Financing Documentation therefor, and in connection with any other aspect of the Transaction and any other transactions contemplated thereby; provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to pay the fees and expenses of any counsel (other than the Lender Counsel) to any Lenders or Prospective Lenders (the “Fees and Expenses”). In the event that final Financing Documentation is not executed by the
parties and/or the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities do not close or fund on or prior to the Termination Date, all Fees and Expenses shall be due and payable by the Borrower promptly upon the demand of the Agent made after the
Termination Date, whether or not such transactions contemplated by this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter are closed. 
 11. Whether or not the Amended
and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities close or fund on the Closing Date, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Agent, each Arranger, each Lender and each of their affiliates and each of their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same are incurred for) any and all claims, damages, losses,
liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with
or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (a) any aspect of the Transaction or any similar transaction by you or any of
the other Loan Parties with any Indemnified Party, and any of the other transactions contemplated thereby, or (b) the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof, except
to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (i) is found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of 

  
 7 

 
competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (ii) results from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan
Party against any Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any Existing Loan Document, if the Borrower or such other Loan Party has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such
claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation,
litigation or proceeding is brought by you, your equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transaction is consummated. You also
agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to you or your subsidiaries or affiliates or to your or their respective equity holders or creditors arising out of, related to
or in connection with any aspect of the Transaction, except to the extent of direct, as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive, damages determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. It is further agreed that each Lender shall only have liability to you (as opposed to any other person), that each Lender shall be liable solely in respect of
its own Lender Commitment hereunder on a several, and not joint, basis with any other Lender, and that such liability shall only arise to the extent damages have been caused by such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined
in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of
information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, as
determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Lender, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, the Borrower will not enter
into any settlement of a lawsuit, claim or other proceeding arising out of this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated by this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter unless such settlement includes an explicit and
unconditional release from the party bringing such lawsuit, claim or other proceeding of each Indemnified Party.

R E C I T A L S

A.    WHEREAS, each of Buyer, Sellers and Escrow Agent entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions dated as of August 11, 2016 (the “Agreement”), for the purchase and sale of certain real property and improvements located in Cullman, Cullman County, Alabama and Sylacauga, Talladega County, Alabama (collectively, the “Property”) under the terms and conditions as more particularly described in the Agreement; and
B.    WHEREAS Buyer and Sellers desire to amend the Agreement as set forth herein.
A G R E E M E N T

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Buyer and Sellers hereby agree, and instruct Escrow Agent, as follows:
		
	1.
	Recitals and Definitions.  The foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated herein by reference.  All terms used herein are as defined in the Agreement unless otherwise defined in the Amendment.

		
	2.
	Diligence Waivers.  Buyer hereby waives its termination right under Section 4.1.3 of the Agreement.

		
	3.

	6.
	Consent of the Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent hereby joins in the execution of this Amendment for purposes of consenting to and accepting the terms of this Amendment.

		
	7.
	Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in as many counterparts as may be deemed necessary and convenient, and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument. Originals transmitted by facsimile or electronic mail shall be considered original in all respects.

		
	8.
	Governing Law.  This Amendment and the legal relations between the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Alabama, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law.

		
	9.
	Entire Agreement.  The Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, including all exhibits attached and incorporated herein by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between Buyer and Sellers pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior discussions, agreements, understandings, letters of intent, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties, and there are no warranties, representations or other agreements, express or implied, made to either party by the other party in connection with the subject matter hereof except as specifically set forth in the Representation Documents.

		
	10.
	Modification; Waiver.  No supplement, modification, waiver or termination of or under this Amendment or any obligation hereunder shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party against whom enforcement is sought.  No waiver of any provision of this Amendment shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.  Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Amendment, the excuse or waiver of the performance by a party of any obligation of the other party under this Amendment shall only be effective if evidenced by a written statement signed by the party so excusing or waiving.  No delay in exercising any right or remedy shall constitute a waiver thereof, and no waiver by Sellers or Buyer of the breach of any covenant of this Amendment shall be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other covenant or condition of this Amendment.

		
	11.
	Binding Effect.  Subject to and without waiver of the provisions of the Agreement or otherwise, all of the rights, duties, benefits, liabilities and obligations of the parties under this Amendment shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, their respective successors and assigns.  Except as specifically set forth or referred to herein, nothing 

2

herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any person or entity, other than the parties hereto and their successors or permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Amendment.
		
	12.
	Miscellaneous.  All other terms and conditions of the Agreement not specifically modified or supplemented by this Amendment shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect, and the Agreement, as supplemented by this Amendment, is hereby ratified and confirmed.  Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.
