1.1          Establishment of the Plan. Abrams Industries, Inc., a Georgia corporation (hereinafter referred to as the "Company"), hereby establishes a stock option and incentive award plan known as the "Abrams Industries, Inc. 2000 Stock Award Plan" (the "Plan"), as set forth in this document. The Plan permits the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Nonqualified Stock Options, Restricted Stock, Stock Awards, Performance Share Awards and Stock Appreciation Rights.

          The Plan shall become effective on the date it is approved by the Board of Directors (the "Effective Date"), and shall remain in effect as provided in Section 1.3.

          1.2          Purpose of the Plan. The purposes of the Plan are to promote greater stock ownership in the Company by key employees, directors, consultants, independent contractors, or other persons who perform services for the Company and/or its Parent, Subsidiaries, and affiliates (the "Participants"); to provide the means through which Participants can build a financial stake in the Company so as to align the economic interest of Participants with those of the Company's shareholders; and to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract and retain the services of Participants upon whose judgment, interest and special effort the successful conduct of its operation largely depends.

          1.3          Duration of the Plan. The Plan shall commence on the Effective Date, and shall remain in effect, subject to the right of the Board of Directors to amend or terminate the Plan at any time pursuant to Article 14, until the day prior to the tenth (10th) annual anniversary of the Effective Date.

          Whenever used in the Plan, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

          3.1          The Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (or a subcommittee thereof), or by any other committee or subcommittee appointed by the Board that is granted authority to administer the Plan. The members of the Committee shall be appointed from time to time by, and shall serve at the discretion of, the Board of Directors. In the absence of any such appointment, the Plan shall be administered by the Board.

          3.2          Authority of the Committee. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have full and exclusive power to select the Participants who shall participate in the Plan (who may change from year to year); determine the size and types of Awards; determine the terms and conditions of Awards in a manner consistent with the Plan (including conditions on the exercisability of all or a part of an Option or SAR, restrictions on transferability, vesting provisions on Restricted Stock or Performance Share Awards and the duration of the Awards); construe and interpret the Plan and any agreement or instrument entered into under the Plan; establish, amend or waive rules and regulations for the Plan's administration; and (subject to the provisions of Article 14) amend the terms and conditions of any outstanding Award to the extent such terms and conditions are within the discretion of the Committee as provided in the Plan, including accelerating the time any Option or SAR may be exercised and establishing different terms and conditions relating to the effect of the termination of employment or other services to the Company. Further, the Committee shall make all other determinations which may be necessary or advisable in the Committee's opinion for the administration of the Plan. All expenses of administering this Plan shall be borne by the Company.

          3.3          Decisions Binding. All determinations and decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and all related orders and resolutions of the Board shall be final, conclusive and binding on all Persons, including the Company, the shareholders, Participants and their estates and beneficiaries.

          3.4          Employees in Foreign Countries. The Committee shall have the authority to adopt such modifications, procedures, appendices and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to comply with provisions of the laws of foreign countries in which the Company or any Subsidiary may operate to assure the viability of the benefits from Awards granted to Employees employed in such countries and to meet the objectives of the Plan.

          4.1          Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3, the total number of Shares available for grant of Awards under the Plan shall be one million (1,000,000) Shares. The Shares may, in the discretion of the Company, be either authorized but unissued Shares or Shares held as treasury shares, including Shares purchased by the Company, whether on the market or otherwise. The following rules shall apply for purposes of the determination of the number of Shares available for grant under the Plan:

          4.2          Lapsed Awards. If any Award granted under this Plan is canceled, terminates, expires or lapses for any reason, or if Shares are withheld in payment of the Option Price or for withholding taxes, any Shares subject to such Award or that are withheld shall again be available for the grant of an Award under the Plan.

          4.3          Adjustments In Authorized Shares. In the event of (i) any change in corporate capitalization, such as a stock split, reverse stock split, or stock dividend; (ii) any corporate transaction to which Code Section 424(a) applies; or (iii) such other event which in the judgment of the Committee necessitates an adjustment; such adjustment shall be made in the maximum number and kind of shares which may be delivered under the Plan as set forth in Section 4.1 above, and in the number and kind of and/or price of shares subject to outstanding Awards granted under the Plan, as may be determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights; provided, however, that the number of shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number, and the Committee shall make such adjustments as are necessary to insure Awards of whole shares. Except as expressly provided herein, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an outstanding Award.

          Any Director or Employee, or any independent contractor, adviser or consultant to the Company or a Parent, Subsidiary, or affiliate of the Company shall be eligible to receive an Award under the Plan. In determining the individuals to whom such an Award shall be granted and the number of Shares which may be granted pursuant to that Award, the Committee shall take into account the duties of the respective individual, his or her present and potential contributions to the success of the Company or a Parent, Subsidiary, or affiliate of the Company, and such other factors as the Committee shall deem relevant in connection with accomplishing the purpose of the Plan.

          6.1          Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including, if applicable, any appendix hereto), Options may be granted to Participants at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall have sole discretion in determining the number of Shares subject to Options granted to each Participant. An Option may be granted with or without a Corresponding SAR. No Participant may be granted ISOs (under the Plan and all other incentive stock option plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) which are first exercisable in any calendar year for Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date an Option is granted) that exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). The preceding annual limit shall not apply to NQSOs. The Committee may grant a Participant ISOs, NQSOs or a combination thereof, and may vary such Awards among Participants. The maximum number of Shares subject to Options which can be granted under the Plan during any calendar year to any individual is 300,000 Shares.

          6.2          Agreement. Each Option grant shall be evidenced by an Agreement that shall specify the Option Price, the duration of the Option, the number of Shares to which the Option pertains and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine. The Option Agreement shall further specify whether the Award is intended to be an ISO or an NQSO. Any portion of an Option that is not designated as an ISO, or otherwise fails or is not qualified as an ISO (even if designated as an ISO), shall be a NQSO. If the Option is granted in connection with a Corresponding SAR, the Agreement shall also specify the terms that apply to the exercise of the Option and Corresponding SAR. The Committee may provide in the Option Agreement for transfer restrictions, repurchase rights, vesting requirements and other limitations on the Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option.

          6.3          Option Price. The Option Price for each grant of an ISO shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted. In no event, however, shall any Participant who owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) stock of the Company possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company be eligible to receive an ISO at an Option Price less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share on the date the ISO is granted. The Option Price for each grant of a NQSO shall be established by the Committee and, in its discretion, may be less or more than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted. The Committee is authorized to issue Options, whether ISOs or NQSOs, at an Option Price in excess of the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted (the so-called "Premium Price" Option) to encourage superior performance.

          6.4          Duration of Options. Each Option shall expire at such time as the Committee shall determine at the time of grant; provided, however, that no Option shall be exercisable later than the tenth (10th) anniversary date of its grant; provided, further, however, that any ISO granted to any Participant who at such time owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) stock of the Company possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, shall not be exercisable later than the fifth (5th) anniversary date of its grant.

          6.5          Exercise of Options. Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee shall in each instance approve, including conditions related to the employment of or provision of services by the Participant with the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or other entity, which need not be the same for each grant or for each Participant. Each Option shall be exercisable for such number of Shares and at such time or times, including periodic installments, as may be determined by the Committee at the time of the grant. The Committee may provide in the Agreement for automatic accelerated vesting and other rights upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in Section 13.1) of the Company or upon the occurrence of other events as specified in the Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and Article 13, the right to purchase Shares that are exercisable in periodic installments shall be cumulative so that when the right to purchase any Shares has accrued, such Shares or any part thereof may be purchased at any time thereafter until the expiration or termination of the Option. The exercise or partial exercise of either an Option or its Corresponding SAR shall result in the termination of the other to the extent of the number of Shares with respect to which the Option or Corresponding SAR is exercised.

          6.6          Payment. Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice of exercise to the Company, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full payment for the Shares. The Option Price upon exercise of any Option shall be payable to the Company in full, either: (a) in cash, (b) in cash equivalent approved by the Committee, (c) if approved by the Committee, by tendering previously acquired Shares (or delivering a certification of ownership of such Shares) having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the total Option Price (provided that the Shares which are tendered must have been held by the Participant for a period of at least six months unless otherwise provided by the Committee), or (d) if approved by the Committee, by a combination of (a), (b) and (c). The Committee also may allow cashless exercises as permitted under Federal Reserve Board's Regulation T, subject to applicable securities law restrictions, or by any other means which the Committee determines to be consistent with the Plan's purpose and applicable law. The Company may, in its discretion, make a loan to the Participant for purposes of permitting the Participant to exercise an Option and to pay any withholding taxes in connection with the exercise of the Option. Such loan shall be on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Company. As soon as practicable after receipt of a written notification of exercise and full payment, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, in the Participant's name, Share certificates in an appropriate amount based upon the number of Shares purchased under the Option(s), and may place appropriate legends on the certificates representing such Shares.

          6.7          Limited Transferability. If permitted by the Committee in the Agreement, a Participant may transfer an Option granted hereunder, including, but not limited to, transfers to members of his or her Immediate Family (as defined below), to one or more trusts for the benefit of such Immediate Family members, or to one or more partnerships where such Immediate Family members are the only partners, if (i) the Participant does not receive any consideration in any form whatsoever for such transfer, (ii) such transfer is permitted under applicable tax laws, and (iii) the Participant is an Insider, such transfer is permitted under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act as in effect from time to time. Any Option so transferred shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions in the hands of the transferee as were applicable to said Option immediately prior to the transfer thereof. Any reference in any such Agreement to the employment by or performance of services for the Company by the Participant shall continue to refer to the employment of, or performance by, the transferring Participant. For purposes hereof, "Immediate Family" shall mean the Participant and any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law of the Participant, including adoptive relationships. Any Option that is granted pursuant to any Agreement that did not initially expressly allow the transfer of said Option, and that has not been amended to expressly permit such transfer, shall not be transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and such Option thus shall be exercisable in the Participant's lifetime only by the Participant.

          6.8          Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to Shares subject to his Option until the issuance of such Shares to the Participant pursuant to the exercise of such Option.

          7.1          Grants of SARs. The Committee shall designate Participants to whom SARs are granted, and will specify the number of Shares of Common Stock subject to each grant. An SAR may be granted with or without a related Option. All SARs granted under this Plan shall be subject to an Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Plan. A payment to the Participant upon the exercise of a Corresponding SAR may not be more than the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the ISO on the date of grant and the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise of the Corresponding SAR. The maximum number of SARs which can be granted under the Plan during any calendar year to any individual is 300,000 SARs.

          7.2          Duration of SARs. The duration of an SAR shall be set forth in the Agreement as determined by the Committee. An SAR that is granted as a Corresponding SAR shall have the same duration as the Option to which it relates. An SAR shall terminate due to the Participant's termination of employment at the same time as the date specified in Article 6 with respect to Options, regardless of whether the SAR was granted in connection with the grant of an Option.

          7.3          Exercise of SAR. An SAR may be exercised in whole at any time or in part from time to time and at such times and in compliance with such requirements as the Committee shall determine as set forth in the Agreement; provided, however, that a Corresponding SAR that is related to an Incentive Stock Option may be exercised only to the extent that the related Option is exercisable and only when the Fair Market Value of the Shares exceeds the Option Price of the related ISO. An SAR granted under this Plan may be exercised with respect to any number of whole shares less than the full number of shares for which the SAR could be exercised. A partial exercise of an SAR shall not affect the right to exercise the SAR from time to time in accordance with this Plan and the applicable Agreement with respect to the remaining shares subject to the SAR. The exercise of either an Option or Corresponding SAR shall result in the termination of the other to the extent of the number of Shares with respect to which the Option or its Corresponding SAR is exercised.

          7.4          Determination of Payment of Cash and/or Common Stock Upon Exercise of SAR. At the Committee's discretion, the amount payable as a result of the exercise of an SAR may be settled in cash, Common Stock, or a combination of cash and Common Stock. A fractional share shall not be deliverable upon the exercise of an SAR, but a cash payment shall be made in lieu thereof.

          7.5          Nontransferability. Each SAR granted under the Plan shall be nontransferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During the lifetime of the Participant to whom the SAR is granted, the SAR may be exercised only by the Participant. No right or interest of a Participant in any SAR shall be liable for, or subject to any lien, obligation or liability of such Participant. A Corresponding SAR shall be subject to the same restrictions on transfer as the ISO to which it relates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Agreement so provides, a Participant may transfer an SAR (other than a Corresponding SAR that relates to an Incentive Stock Option) under the same rules and conditions as are set forth in Section 6.7.

          7.6          Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to Shares subject to an SAR until the issuance of Shares (if any) to the Participant pursuant to the exercise of such SAR.

          8.1          Grants. The Committee may from time to time in its discretion grant Restricted Stock and Stock Awards to Participants, and may determine the number of Shares of Restricted Stock or Stock Awards to be granted. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of, and the amount of payment, if any, to be made by the Participant for such Shares or Restricted Stock. A grant of Restricted Stock may, in addition to other conditions, require the Participant to pay for such Shares of Restricted Stock, but the Committee may establish a price below Fair Market Value at which the Participant can purchase the Shares of Restricted Stock. Each grant of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an Agreement containing terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee shall determine to be appropriate in its sole discretion. The maximum number of Shares of Restricted Stock or Stock Awards which can be granted under the Plan during any calendar year to any individual is 300,000 Shares.

          8.2          Restricted Period; Lapse of Restrictions. At the time a grant of Restricted Stock is made, the Committee shall establish a period or periods of time (the "Restricted Period") applicable to such grant which, unless the Committee otherwise provides, shall not be less than one year. Subject to the other provisions of this Article 8, at the end of the Restricted Period all restrictions shall lapse and the Restricted Stock shall vest in the Participant. At the time a grant is made, the Committee may, in its discretion, prescribe conditions for the incremental lapse of restrictions during the Restricted Period, and for the lapse or termination of restrictions upon the occurrence of other conditions in addition to or other than the expiration of the Restricted Period, with respect to all or any portion of the Restricted Stock. Such conditions may, but need not, include the following:

The Committee may also, in its discretion, shorten or terminate the Restricted Period, or waive any conditions for the lapse or termination of restrictions with respect to all or any portion of the Restricted Stock at any time after the date the grant is made.

          8.3          Rights of Holder; Limitations Thereon. Upon a grant of Restricted Stock, a stock certificate (or certificates) representing the number of Shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Participant shall be registered in the Participant's name, and shall be held in custody by the Company or a bank selected by the Committee for the Participant's account. Following such registration, the Participant shall have the rights and privileges of a shareholder as to such Restricted Stock, including the right to receive dividends, if and when declared by the Board of Directors, and to vote such Restricted Stock, except that the right to receive cash dividends shall be the right to receive such dividends either in cash currently or by payment in Restricted Stock, as the Committee shall determine, and except further that, the following restrictions shall apply:

          With respect to any Shares received as a result of adjustments under Section 4.3 hereof and any Shares received with respect to stock dividends or in lieu of cash dividends declared on Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have the same rights and privileges, and be subject to the same restrictions, as are set forth in this Article 8.

          8.4          Delivery of Unrestricted Shares. Upon the expiration or termination of the Restricted Period for any Shares of Restricted Stock and the satisfaction of any and all other conditions prescribed by the Committee, the restrictions applicable to such Shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse and a stock certificate for the number of Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which the restrictions have lapsed shall be delivered, free of all such restrictions except any that may be imposed by law, a shareholders' agreement or any other agreement, to the holder of the Restricted Stock. The Company shall not be required to deliver any fractional Share, but will pay, in lieu thereof, the Fair Market Value (determined as of the date the restrictions lapse) of such fractional Share to the holder thereof. Concurrently with the delivery of a certificate for Restricted Stock, the holder shall be required to pay an amount necessary to satisfy any applicable federal, state and local tax requirements as set out in Article 16 below.

          8.5          Nonassignability of Restricted. Unless the Committee provides otherwise in the Agreement, no grant of, nor any right or interest of a Participant in or to, any Restricted Stock, or in any instrument evidencing any grant of Restricted Stock under the Plan, may be assigned, encumbered or transferred except, in the event of the death of a Participant, by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

          9.1          Award. The Committee may designate Participants to whom Performance Share Awards will be granted from time to time for no consideration, and specify the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Award.

          9.2          Earning the Award. A Performance Share Award, or portion thereof, will be earned, and the Participant will be entitled to receive Common Stock, a cash payment or a combination thereof, only upon the achievement by the Participant, the Company, or a Parent or Subsidiary, of such performance objectives as the Committee, in its discretion, shall prescribe on the date of grant.

          The Committee may, in its sole discretion in determining whether performance targets have been met, adjust the Company's financial results to exclude the effect of unusual charges or income items or other events, including acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or assets, restructurings, reductions in force, currency fluctuations or changes in accounting, which are distortive of financial results (either on a segment or consolidated basis). In addition, the Committee will adjust its calculations to exclude the effect on financial results of changes in the Code or other tax laws, or the regulations relating thereto.

          9.3          Payment. In the discretion of the Committee, the amount payable when a Performance Share Award is earned may be settled in cash, by the grant of Common Stock or a combination of cash and Common Stock. The aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock received by the Participant pursuant to a Performance Share Award, together with any cash paid to the Participant, shall be equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value, on the date the Performance Shares are earned, of the number of Shares of Common Stock equal to each Performance Share earned. A fractional Share will not be deliverable when a Performance Share Award is earned, but a cash payment will be made in lieu thereof.

          9.4          Shareholder Rights. No Participant shall have, as a result of receiving a Performance Share Award, any rights as a shareholder until and to the extent that the Performance Shares are earned and Common Stock is transferred to such Participant. If the Agreement so provides, a Participant may receive a cash payment equal to the dividends that would have been payable with respect to the number of Shares of Common Stock covered by the Award between (a) the date that the Performance Shares are awarded and (b) the date that a transfer of Common Stock to the Participant, cash settlement, or combination thereof is made pursuant to the Performance Share Award. A Participant may not sell, transfer, pledge, exchange, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of a Performance Share Award or the right to receive Common Stock thereunder other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. After a Performance Share Award is earned and paid in Common Stock, a Participant will have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Common Stock so awarded; provided that the restrictions of Section 19.4 or any shareholders' agreement or other agreement shall, if applicable, continue to apply.

          To the extent applicable, each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of his or her death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company and shall be effective only when filed by the Participant, in writing, with the Company during the Participant's lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's death shall be paid to the Participant's estate. If required, the spouse of a married Participant domiciled in a community property jurisdiction shall join in any designation of a beneficiary or beneficiaries other than the spouse.

          The Committee may permit a Participant to defer to another plan or program such Participant's receipt of Shares or cash that would otherwise be due to such Participant by virtue of the exercise of an Option, the vesting of Restricted Stock, or the earning of a Performance Share Award. If any such deferral election is required or permitted, the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, establish rules and procedures for such payment deferrals.

          12.1          Employment. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or a Parent, Subsidiary, or affiliate of the Company to terminate any Participant's employment by, or performance of services for, the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary, or affiliate of the Company, at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or a Parent, Subsidiary, or affiliate of the Company. For purposes of the Plan, transfer of employment of a Participant between the Company and any one of its affiliates (or between affiliates) shall not be deemed a termination of employment.

          12.2          Participation. No Employee shall have the right to be selected to receive an Award under this Plan, or, previously having been so selected, to be selected to receive a future Award.

          13.1          Definition. For purposes of the Plan, a "Change in Control" means any of the following events:

          14.1          Amendment, Modification and Termination. The Board may, at any time and from time to time, alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part; provided, that, unless approved by the holders of a majority of the total number of Shares of the Company represented and voted at a meeting at which a quorum is present, no amendment shall be made to the Plan if such amendment would (a) materially modify the eligibility requirements provided in Article 5; (b) increase the total number of Shares which may be granted under the Plan (except as provided in Section 4.3); (c) extend the term of the Plan; or (d) amend the Plan in any other manner which the Board, in its discretion, determines should become effective only if approved by the shareholders, even if such shareholder approval is not expressly required by the Plan or by law.

          14.2          Awards Previously Granted. No termination, amendment or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant holding such Award. The Committee shall, with the written consent of the Participant holding such Award, have the authority to cancel Awards outstanding and grant replacement Awards therefor.

          14.3          Compliance With Code Section 162(m). At all times when the Committee determines that compliance with Code Section 162(m) is required or desired, all Awards granted under this Plan to Named Executive Officers shall comply with the requirements of Code Section 162(m). In addition, in the event that changes are made to Code Section 162(m) to permit greater flexibility with respect to any Award or Awards under the Plan, the Committee may, subject to this Article 14, make any adjustments it deem appropriate.

          15.1          Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local taxes (including the Participant's FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising in connection with an Award under this Plan.

          15.2          Share Withholding. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise of Options, or upon any other taxable event arising as a result of Awards granted hereunder which are to be paid in the form of Shares, Participants may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax which could be imposed on the transaction. All elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and elections by Insiders shall additionally comply with all legal requirements applicable to Share transactions by such Participants.

          Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or the Board, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company's approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding against him or her, provided he or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall be in addition to any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

          All obligations of the Company under the Plan, with respect to Awards granted hereunder, shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

          18.1          Gender and Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein shall also include the feminine; the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural.

          18.2          Severability. If any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

          18.3          Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

          18.4          Regulatory Approvals and Listing. The Company shall not be required to issue any certificate or certificates for Shares under the Plan prior to (i) obtaining any approval from any governmental agency which the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; (ii) the admission of such shares to listing on any national securities exchange or Nasdaq on which the Company's Shares may be listed; and (iii) the completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or ruling or regulation of any governmental body which the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.

          To the extent applicable, if required by the then-current Section 16 of the Exchange Act, any "derivative security" or "equity security" offered pursuant to the Plan to any Insider may not be sold or transferred for at least six (6) months after the date of grant of such Award. The terms "equity security" and "derivative security" shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the then-current Rule 16(a) under the Exchange Act.

          18.5          Securities Law Compliance. To the extent applicable, with respect to Insiders, transactions under this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the Exchange Act. To the extent any provisions of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee.

          18.6          Governing Law. To the extent not preempted by Federal law, the Plan, and all agreements hereunder, shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Georgia.
