VOTING TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of October 15, 1996, by and among
Ann Heafner Gaither, William H. Gaither, Albert C. Gaither, Susan

The Stockholders are respectively owners of shares of the common
stock of the Corporation in the amount set opposite their signature.
With a view to the safe and competent management of the Corporation
in the interests of the Stockholders, and as contemplated by the Stockholders'
Agreement, dated October 15, 1996 (the "Stockholders' Agreement"), the
Stockholders desire to create this Voting Trust.
The Stockholders agree as follows:
1. Transfer of Stock to Trustees. Each of the Stockholders by
execution of the stock power in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A assigns
and delivers to the Trustees any certificate held by such Stockholder
representing shares of stock owned by such Stockholder and shall do all things
necessary for the transfer of shares to the Trustees on the books of the
Corporation.
2. Trustees to Hold Subject to Agreement. The Trustees shall hold
the said shares of stock so transferred to them for the common benefit of the
Stockholders, under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
3. Issuance of Stock Certificates to Trustees. The Trustees shall
surrender to the proper officers of the Corporation for cancellation of all
certificates of stock which shall be assigned and delivered to them as
hereinafter provided, and in their stead shall procure new certificates to be
issues to them as Trustees under this Agreement.
4. Voting Trust Certificates. The Trustees shall issue to each of
the Stockholders a Voting Trust Certificate for the number of shares represented
by the certificates of stock by such Stockholder transferred to the Trustees.
Each such Trust Certificate shall state that it is issued under the Agreement,
and shall set forth the nature and proportional amount of the beneficial
interest thereunder of the person to whom it is issued, and shall be assignable,
subject to the provisions of the Stockholders' Agreement, after the manner of
certificates of stock on books to be kept by the Trustees. The Trustees shall
keep a list of the shares of the Trust transferred to them, and shall also keep
a record of all Voting Trust Certificates issued or transferred on their books,
which
records shall contain the names and addresses of the Trust Certificate holders
and the number of shares represented by each such certificate. Such list and
record shall be open at all reasonable times to the inspection upon the books of
the Trustees of any Trust Certificate, and the transferee shall succeed to all
the rights hereunder of the transferor.
The Voting Trust Certificate shall be substantially in the following

shares respectively represented by their Trust Certificate.

against all costs, charges, expenses and other liabilities properly incurred by
them in the exercise of any power conferred upon them by these presents; and the
Stockholders, and each of them hereby covenant with the Trustees that in the
event of the monies and securities in their hands being insufficient for that
purpose, the Stockholders and each of them will in proportion to the amount of
their respective shares and interests hold harmless and keep indemnified the
Trustees of and from all loss or damage which they may sustain or be put to by
reason of anything they may lawfully do in the execution of this Trust.
10. Vacancies. In the event of any Trustee's dying or resigning or
refusing or becoming unable to act, the surviving or other Trustee or Trustees
shall appoint Trustee or Trustees to fill the vacancy or vacancies, and any
person so appointed shall thereupon be vested with all the duties, powers and
authority of a Trustee hereunder as if originally named herein. Prior to the
commencement of his duties, each original Voting Trustee and each Voting Trustee
subsequently appointed shall sign a copy of the Stockholders' Agreement,
relating to the shares of the Corporation and shall thus signify his consent to
be bound thereby and his agreement to perform the terms thereof. All of the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Stockholders' Agreement shall apply to
all Voting Trustees hereof and hereunder with the same force and effect as if
such Voting Trustees had originally signed said Stockholders' Agreement.

shall be continued until October 14, 2006, and shall then terminate, provided
that this Voting Trust Agreement shall terminate upon the occurrence of the

termination of the Trust, the Trustees shall, upon surrender of the Trust
Certificates by the respective holders thereof, assign and transfer to them the

prepaid, if mailed; and the next business day after timely delivery to the
courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery.
(d) This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each
