         Agreement") by and among Martin Industries, Inc. ("Martin Industries")
         and AmSouth Bank ("the Bank"). In this letter capitalized terms shall
         be given the meanings indicated in the Loan Agreement and/or in this
         letter.

Dear Mr. Truitt:

I am writing this letter to you concerning the indebtedness ("Indebtedness")
referenced above of Martin Industries to the Bank and your recent request that
the Loan Agreement be amended to effect an extension of the Line of Credit
Termination Date. You have also requested a waiver of certain covenants
included in the Loan Agreement.

In response to your requests, the Bank hereby amends the Loan Agreement as
follows:

         A.       The definition of "Line of Credit Termination Date" in
Section 1.02 is amended as follows:

                  LINE OF CREDIT TERMINATION DATE shall
                  mean the earlier to occur of (a) the date
                  on which an Event of Default occurs or
                  (b) November 4, 2002 (or such later
                  termination date as the Borrower and the
                  Lender hereafter agree on in a written
                  extension agreement pursuant to Section
                  3).

         B.       Section 7.19 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read
in its entirety as follows:

         SECTION 7.19. STRATEGIC ALTERNATIVES. Martin Industries has informed
         the Bank that it is pursuing alternative financing to replace the
         credit provided by the Bank to Martin Industries and other available
         strategic alternatives, including one or more of the sale of equity
         securities in Martin Industries in a private placement or the sale of
         Martin Industries or

<PAGE>

         its assets. Martin Industries has engaged Argilus Investment Banking,
         an investment banking firm headquartered in Pittsford, New York
         ("Argilus"), to assist Martin Industries in exploring its strategic
         alternatives. Martin Industries represents to the Bank that it will
         use its reasonable best efforts to pursue one or more of the available
         strategic alternatives. Although there can be no assurance that any
         specific transaction or other strategic alternative will occur or as
         to the form that any possible transaction or other strategic
         alternative might take, Martin Industries covenants and agrees that by
         not later than October 7, 2002, Martin Industries shall have obtained
         a letter of intent from an alternate financing source to refinance and
         pay in full the indebtedness of Martin Industries then outstanding to
         the Bank under the Loan Agreement or a letter of intent with a third
         party providing for a transaction which, upon closing, will result in
         the payment in full of such indebtedness to the Bank. Martin
         Industries does not currently expect to publicly disclose developments
         regarding its pursuit of strategic alternatives unless and until it is
         in a position to announce it has decided upon a definitive transaction
         or strategic alternative. The Bank acknowledges that it is aware, and
         that it will advise its officers, employees, agents and
         representatives who become aware of material, non-public information
         concerning Martin Industries, that the United States securities laws
         prohibit them from purchasing or selling securities of Martin
         Industries while in possession of such material, non-public
         information.

Effective as of August 30, 2002, all references in the Loan Documents to the
"Loan Agreement" shall mean the Loan Agreement, as heretofore modified and
amended and as further modified and amended hereby.

In all other respects, the Loan Agreement shall remain in full force and effect
in accordance with its terms.

In addition to the foregoing, the Bank waives until November 4, 2002, or until
any earlier maturity, any default or Event of Default arising out of the
Borrower's failure to comply with Sections 8.09, 8.11, 8.12, 8.13 and 8.20 of
the Loan Agreement with respect to the fiscal periods ended through August 31,
2002.

In addition, the Bank agrees that the payment date of the fee in the amount of
One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000) due to be paid to the Bank
by Martin Industries on August 31, 2002 (the "Maturity Fee"), is extended to
November 4, 2002.

To evidence the acceptance of the foregoing amendments and agreements on the
terms and conditions set forth herein, please sign and return to me the
enclosed copy of this letter agreement. By so signing the enclosed copy of this
letter agreement, Martin Industries acknowledges and agrees to the following
terms and conditions of such amendments and agreements:

1.       This letter agreement shall not be deemed to be an accord and
         satisfaction of the Indebtedness or any other obligation owed to the
         Bank.

2.       All collateral that now secures all or any of the Indebtedness shall
         continue to secure same. Nothing in this letter agreement diminishes
         any security interest or lien that the Bank has in any assets securing
         the Indebtedness. All of the collateral, rights, security, and
         guarantees

                                       2
<PAGE>

         that the Bank now has to secure any of the Indebtedness due from
         Martin Industries shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby
         ratified and confirmed.

3.       The Bank reserves all of its rights and remedies under the Loan
         Agreement, the Security Documents, any other Loan Documents, and/or
         applicable law, in respect of any Event(s) of Default. The current
         non-exercise by the Bank of any rights and remedies which it may have
         shall not constitute a release or waiver of any of its rights and/or
         remedies or a release or waiver of any Event(s) of Default under the
         Loan Agreement, the Security Documents, or any other Loan Documents,
         except for the Waiver provided in this letter agreement. The Bank
         specifically reserves the right to invoke any and all rights and
         remedies at any time in its sole discretion.

4.       Martin Industries hereby releases, satisfies, cancels, waives,
         acquits, and forever discharges the Bank, its directors, officers,
         employees, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns, of and from any
         and all claims, demands, actions, or causes of action of any kind or
         character, arising at any time in the past, up to and including the
         date of this letter agreement, which relate or pertain in any way to
         the Indebtedness and/or collection of them.

5.       The Indebtedness is owed by Martin Industries to the Bank for the
         amount (exclusive of outstanding letters of credit, interest, ACH
         exposures and the Bank's attorneys fees) herein stated and there are
         no defenses, setoffs, or counterclaims with respect thereto:

6.       Martin Industries agrees to pay the Indebtedness strictly and promptly
         in accordance with the terms of the applicable promissory notes or
         other debt instruments, as specifically modified by the Loan Agreement
         and this letter agreement.

7.       Martin Industries shall pay to the Bank a fee in the total amount of
         Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($5,000.00) upon the execution of
         this letter agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions otherwise
         applicable to the making of Advances under the Loan Agreement, Martin
         Industries may request and receive an Advance to pay the Closing Fee.

8.       Martin Industries acknowledges that the Bank has earned warrants to
         purchase common stock in Martin Industries equal to ten percent (10%)
         of the outstanding shares of Martin Industries for a per share
         purchase price of $0.14 (the "Warrants"). On or prior to September 16,
         2002, Martin Industries shall take all corporate action necessary to
         amend the per share purchase price of the Warrants to be $0.01 and
         shall issue and deliver the Warrants to the Bank. Failure by Martin
         Industries to take all appropriate corporate action to so amend the
         per share purchase price of the Warrants and deliver the Warrants
         shall constitute an Event of Default.
