NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND LIQUIDITY

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of I-Link
Incorporated and its subsidiaries ("I-Link" or the "Company"). The Company's
principal operation is the development, sale and delivery of enhanced
communications products and services utilizing its own private intranet and both
owned and leased network switching and transmission facilities. The Company
provides unique communications solutions through its use of proprietary
technologies. Telecommunications services are marketed primarily through master
agent and wholesale distributor arrangements with I-Link Communications, a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that is a FCC licensed long-distance
carrier. The Company develops and licenses communications applications products
and software that support multimedia communications (voice, fax and audio) over
the public switched network, local area networks and the Internet.

On March 1, 2001, I-Link became a majority owned subsidiary of Counsel
Communications LLC which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Counsel Corporation,
(collectively, "Counsel"). On April 17, 2001, I-Link merged with WebToTel, Inc.
("WebToTel"), a subsidiary of Counsel, and it's subsidiary Nexbell
Communications Inc. ("Nexbell") as more fully described in Note 9. As the
entities were under common control as of March 1, 2001, the financial statements
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 include the financial results
of WebToTel and Nexbell as if I-Link's merger with these two entities had
occurred on March 1, 2001. As the entities were under common control of Counsel
at the time of the merger, the acquisition of WebToTel has been accounted for
similar to a pooling-of-interests using Counsel's book values of the WebToTel
assets and liabilities. The impact of the consolidation of the WebToTel results
of operations and retained deficit for the period from March 31, 2001 are as
shown below:

On June 4, 2001, I-Link Incorporated through it's wholly-owned subsidiary
WorldxChange Corp. ("WorldxChange"), purchased certain assets and assumed
certain liabilities of WorldxChange Communications, Inc. from a bankruptcy
proceeding as more fully described in Note 9. WorldxChange is a facilities-based
telecommunications carrier that provides international and domestic
long-distance service to retail customers. Telecommunication services provided
by WorldxChange consist primarily of a dial-around product that allows a
customer to make a call from any phone by dialing a 10-10-XXX prefix. The phone
call will then be billed directly to the customer. Billings to these customers
are primarily done through the customers' local exchange carrier ("LEC").
Marketing of the dial around product is primarily done through independent
marketing agents that receive a commission. WorldxChange's retail base is
comprised of residential and commercial customers.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

The interim financial data are unaudited; however, in the opinion of the
management of the Company, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of (a)
the results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June
30, 2001 and 2000, (b) the financial position at June 30, 2001, and (c) cash
flows for the six-months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. The year-end balance
sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q
for the three-months ended March 31, 2001.

The results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30,
2001 are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the entire year.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of
shares outstanding includes 17,454,333 shares issued by I-Link in April 2001 to
acquire WebToTel as if the merger and related stock issuance had occurred on
March 1, 2001 (see Notes 1 and 9). Options, warrants, convertible preferred
stock and convertible debt are included in the calculation of diluted earnings
per share, except when their effect would be anti-dilutive. As the Company had a
net loss applicable to common stock for the three-month periods ending June 30,
2001 and 2000 and the six-month period ending June 30, 2000, basic and diluted
loss per share are the same. As of June 30, 2001, all potential common stock was
anti-dilutive and therefore excluded from weighted average shares outstanding.

The net income per common share basic and diluted for the six-months ending
June 30, 2001 includes a net gain to retained earnings for $30,292,319
attributed to the redemption on March 1, 2001 of the Class M redeemable
preferred stock and all Class N preferred stock owned by Winter Harbor,
including redemption of the beneficial conversion feature related to such
preferred stock. In addition, there was a charge to retained earnings of
$9,779,846 representing a contingent beneficial conversion feature on the
Class N preferred stock resulting from the reset of the conversion price. The
net income per common share basic and diluted also reflects a $5,000,000
charge to retained earnings for the beneficial conversion feature related to
the reissuance on March 1, 2001of the Class M and Class N preferred stock to
Counsel Communications, LLC.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, holders of the Series F
Redeemable preferred stock converted 248 shares. Accordingly, they were paid
stock dividends of 87,477 shares of common stock on the converted shares during
the first six-months of 2000. All Series F preferred stock had been converted to
common stock as of June 2000.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES

WebToTel acquired Nexbell on February 22, 2001 and accounted for that
acquisition using the purchase method of accounting. As part of that
acquisition, WebToTel recorded $9,136,427 of goodwill. This goodwill is being
amortized over a five-year period.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 ("SFAS 141"), "Business
Combinations." SFAS 141 requires the purchase method of accounting for
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and eliminates the
pooling-of-interests method. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS
141 will not have a significant impact on its financial statements.


                                       7
<Page>

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
142 ("SFAS 142"), "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which is effective
for fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. SFAS 142 requires, among
other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the
standard includes provisions upon adoption for the reclassification of
certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the
useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain
intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the testing for
impairment of existing goodwill and other intangibles. The Company is
currently assessing but has not yet determined the impact of SFAS 142 on its
financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 3 - SHORT TERM BORROWINGS

On June 6, 2001, I-Link and Counsel agreed to enter into a Loan and Security
Agreement ("Loan Agreement"). Any monies advanced to I-Link between June 6,
2001 and April 15, 2002, (in the amount not to exceed $10,000,000) will be
governed by the Loan Agreement. In connection with the Loan Agreement, I-Link
will execute a note payable to Counsel, due June 6, 2002. The loan is secured
by all of the assets of I-Link. Outstanding balances (including any accrued
and unpaid interest) under the loan bear interest at 10% per annum and which
interest is payable quarterly in arrears following the last business day of
each quarter. As of June 30, 2001, advances under this loan agreement totaled
$1,475,700.

To fund the acquisition of the assets purchased and liabilities assumed by
WorldxChange (as more fully described in Note 9), Counsel provided a loan to
I-Link in the aggregate amount of $15,000,000. The loan is collateralized
against all assets of I-Link Incorporated and WorldxChange and guaranteed by
I-Link Incorporated. Outstanding balances (including any accrued and unpaid
interest) under the loan bear interest of 10% per annum and are payable
quarterly in arrears and in cash on the last business day of each quarter.
The payment of cash interest by WorldxChange or I-Link may be waived by
Counsel. The loan will mature on June 4, 2002 but may be extended upon mutual
agreement of both Counsel and I-Link. The loan may be prepaid at any time
prior to the maturity, without penalty.

In connection with the $15,000,000 loan, I-Link issued to Counsel a warrant
to purchase 15,000,000 shares of common stock of I-Link at an exercise price
of $0.60 per share. The shares are exercisable as follows; 5,000,000 on the
date of the agreement, 5,000,000 on September 4, 2001 and December 4, 2001,
respectively, in the event the loan is still outstanding on those dates. The
Company has recorded $1,430,290 as a discount against the $15,000,000 loan
from Counsel representing the relative fair value attributed to the 5,000,000
shares exercisable immediately. The value of the warrant was calculated using
the Black Scholes Model and is being amortized over the term of the loan. In
the event the Company issues the second and third tranche of warrants as
described above, the Company will record additional interest expense related
to the fair value of the warrants when issued.

NOTE 4 - LONG-TERM DEBT

Included in the liabilities assumed with the WorldxChange acquisition, the
Company agreed to a non-interest-bearing note of $1,350,000 payable in
installments of $37,500 per month for 36 months to a carrier. The Company has
recorded this debt at its fair market value with an imputed interest rate of
10% resulting in a liability in the amount of $1,162,171. The note is subject
to reduced payments based upon future usage with the carrier.

NOTE - 5  FURNITURE, FIXTURES, EQUIPMENT AND SOFTWARE

In connection with the purchase of certain assets from WorldxChange
Communications Inc (see Note 9), the Company recorded $5,247,709 in equipment
and cables including Indefeasible Rights of Use ("IRU") in telecommunication
cable systems.


                                       8
<Page>

On June 27, 2001, WorldxChange entered into a capital lease agreement to lease
certain telecommunications equipment with a value of $9,000,000. Lease payment
terms for the first six months of the lease term will be $150,000 per month. The
remaining forty-two payments will be $231,361 per month.


NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES

The Company recognized no income tax benefit from the losses generated in 2001
and 2000 because of the uncertainty of the realization of the related deferred
tax asset.


NOTE 7 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

During the six months ended June 30, 2001, approximately 3,080,000 options to
purchase the Company's common stock previously issued to employees expired or
were forfeited. During the same six months, there were approximately
1,791,000 options to purchase common stock issued to employees. There were no
exercises of options during the six-month period ended June 30, 2001.

NOTE 8 - PURCHASE COMMITMENTS

The Company has an agreement with a national carrier to lease local access
spans. The agreement includes minimum usage commitments of $2,160,000 per
year for the two years beginning July 2000. If I-Link were to terminate the
agreement early, it would be required to pay 25 percent of any remaining
minimum monthly usage requirements.

NOTE 9 - ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARIES

ACQUISITION OF WEBTOTEL

On April 17, 2001, I-Link completed its merger with WebToTel and it's
subsidiary Nexbell, for 17,454,333 shares of I-Link common stock. WebToTel
was an entity established to acquire telecommunication companies. Nexbell is
a wholesale network telecommunications provider which operates a private,
managed IP telephony network that delivers packet voice services to over 400
key metropolitan areas in the United States. Nexbell's first product
offering, Multi-Exchange Transport Service (METS), provides customers with
VoIP based local access origination and termination services through 32
(subsequently consolidated to 13) domestic points of presence. The merger of
I-Link and WebToTel has been accounted for using the book values of WebToTel,
effective March 1, 2001, the earliest dated that all three entities were
under common control of Counsel.

PURCHASE OF CERTAIN WORLDXCHANGE COMMUNICATIONS, INC. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

On June 4, 2001, I-Link Incorporated, through it's wholly-owned subsidiary
WorldxChange, purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of
WorldxChange Communications, Inc. ("Debtor") from a bankruptcy proceeding.
The purchased assets included all of the assets employed in the Debtor's
operations in the United States and consisted of the Debtor's equipment,
inventory, retail long distance business, accounts receivable, licenses,
permits, authorizations, software programs and related technology. On June 4,
2001, the Debtor transferred the purchased assets to WorldxChange in exchange
for $13,000,000.

To fund the acquisition of the assets and provide working capital, Counsel
agreed to provide a collateralized loan to I-Link in the aggregate amount of
$15,000,000 (of which $13,000,000 was used for the purchase) as more fully
described in Note 4.

NOTE 10 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On January 18, 2001, I-Link Incorporated ("I-Link") filed action against Red
Cube, International AG and Red Cube, Inc. ("Red Cube") in federal court in Utah
seeking damages against Red Cube, for an alleged default on an agreement to
provide approximately $60,000,000 in equity funding to I-Link, and instituting a
scheme to drive I-Link out of business and obtain control of I-Link's
proprietary technology, telecommunications network, key employees and customers.
I-Link obtained a temporary restraining order against Red Cube preventing Red
Cube from interfering with I-Link's employees, vendors and customers. Red Cube
commenced an arbitration proceeding in New York (see next paragraph) and then
filed a motion to dismiss the federal court action and compel arbitration based
upon a mandatory arbitration provision in the May 2000 Cooperation and Framework
Agreement by and between Red Cube and I-Link. The court found that I-Link's
claims were "related to" the Cooperation and Framework Agreement and granted Red
Cube's motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The dismissal
resulted in this issue being submitted for AAA arbitration pursuant to the
Cooperation and Framework Agreement.

On January 24, 2001, Red Cube, after the federal court action described above
had been commenced against it by I-Link, delivered a written demand for
arbitration and commenced an arbitration proceeding in New York alleging that
I-Link breached the Cooperation and Framework Agreement by (i) threatening a
shut-down of I-Link's IP telecommunications network, (ii) the resignation of
Dror Nahumi as an employee of I-Link (which Red Cube claims will cause I-Link to
breach its undertaking to provide certain consulting services in the event
I-Link is unable to perform under the Agreement and Red Cube is required to
assume primary operation and maintenance of it's own IP telecommunications
network based upon I-Link's technology), and (iii) I-Link's alleged failure to
update the escrowed copy of its source code to the current version of the source
code employed to maintain the IP telecommunications network. When the federal
court action was dismissed in favor of the arbitration proceeding, I-Link filed
a response in the arbitration proceeding denying all of Red Cube's claims.
I-Link also filed a counterclaim against Red Cube virtually identical to the
claims it initially brought against Red Cube in the

                                       10
<Page>

federal court action seeking compensatory and/or punitive damages for Red Cube's
default under a subsequent agreement to provide approximately $60,000,000 in
equity funding to I-Link, and engaging in a scheme to drive I-Link out of
business and obtain control of I-Link's proprietary technology,
telecommunications network, key employees and customers. In May 2001 Red Cube
amended its claim to include additional allegations that I-Link undertook
certain unspecified "significant transactions" in violation of its agreements
with I-Link's then majority shareholder, Winter Harbor, LLC (with which Red Cube
is also currently engaged in arbitration) which resulted in damage to Red Cube.
I-Link has denied these additional allegations. The arbitration proceeding is in
the discovery stage.

In June 2001, I-Link gave notice to Red Cube that it intended to cease providing
international carrier services to Red Cube (representing the vast majority of
all services performed for Red Cube) as a result of Red Cube's failure to
provide I-Link adequate assurance of ongoing payment for such services. Red Cube
sought emergency relief in the arbitration attempting to prohibit I-Link from
terminating these services. A hearing was held before the arbitration panel in
July 2001 and Red Cube's request for relief was denied. I-Link ceased providing
international carrier services to Red Cube immediately thereafter.

On February 8, 2001, The Nasdaq Stock Market, Nasdaq Listing Qualifications
Department (the "Staff"), notified the Company that its securities would be
de-listed from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market (the "SmallCap Market") for the
Company's inability to meet a SmallCap Market continued inclusion requirement
for $35,000,000 in market capitalization. Subsequently, the Staff, in its March
8, 2001 correspondence, notified I-Link that the Company no longer complied with
the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share as set forth in National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") Rule 4310(c)(4). Subsequently,
on June 11, 2001, the Staff raised additional concern regarding the Company's
issuances of stock and debt to Counsel Corporation in connection with the Loan
and NexBell transactions (as defined below) (it was alleged that said stock
issuances by I-Link should have been approved by I-Link's stockholders). On May
17, 2001, an oral hearing was held before a panel of the Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications Panel (the "Panel"), relating to the various concerns raised by
the Staff.

On July 17, 2001, the Panel issued a decision to continue the listing of
I-Link's securities on the SmallCap Market in accordance with the exception from
certain continued listing criteria. Under the terms and conditions of the
exception, I-Link is required, on or before August 3, 2001, to file a proxy
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and Nasdaq
evidencing I-Link's intent (1) to seek shareholder approval for a reverse stock
sufficient to evidence a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share, and (2)
to seek shareholder ratification for the issuance of shares of its common stock
to Counsel Corporation in connection with (i) March 1, 2001 Senior Convertible
Loan and Security Agreement with Counsel Communications LLC, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Counsel Corporation (the "Loan transaction") and (ii) April 17,
2001 Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among I-Link and I-Link Acquisition
Corp., a Delaware corporation and I-Link's wholly owned subsidiary, on the one
hand, and WebToTel, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Counsel Corporation, and
certain other shareholders, on the other hand (the "NexBell transaction").

On July 30, 2001, the Company filed a revised preliminary proxy statement with
the SEC and Nasdaq. I-Link's compliance with the first requirement necessary for
continued listing on the SmallCap was acknowledged in the Staff correspondence
dated August 9, 2001. As a result of its compliance with the foregoing
requirement, the Panel determined to continue the continued listing exception
through September 5, 2001. On August 16, 2001, the Nasdaq Staff satisfied
I-Link's request for an extension to effect the proposed reverse stock split and
extended the compliance deadline from September 5, 2001 to September 13, 2001.
Pursuant to the terms of the August 16, 2001 reiteration of the Panel's
determination, on or before September 13, 2001, I-Link is required to submit to
Nasdaq documentation evidencing receipt of shareholder ratification for stock
issuances to Counsel Corporation in connection with the Loan and NexBell
transactions. In addition, the Company, on or before September 13, 2001, must
demonstrate closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share and, immediately
thereafter, a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10
consecutive trading days. Further, the Company, on or before September 13, 2001,
must demonstrate a market capitalization of at least $35,000,000 and,
immediately after, a market capitalization of at least $35,000,000 for a minimum
of 10 consecutive trading days. As of the date of this filing, I-Link is not in
compliance with the SmallCap Market capitalization continued listing criterion.
There is no assurance that I-Link will comply with this requirement even if the
proposed reverse stock split is effected as described in this proxy statement.
Under the terms of the Panel's July 17, 2001 decision (as well as its August 16,
2001 reiteration), I-Link's non-

                                       11
<Page>

compliance with the market capitalization criterion, on or before September 13,
2001, will result in the de-listing of its securities from the SmallCap Market.
I-Link must comply with all of the foregoing continued listing requirements in
order to for its securities to remain listed on the SmallCap Market. In the
event the Company fails to meet any one of the requirements as set forth in the
July 17, 2001 Panel decision (as well as the August 16, 2001 reiteration of the
same), the Company's common stock will be de-listed from the SmallCap Market.
Should I-Link's securities cease to be listed on the SmallCap Market, its
securities may continue to be listed on the OTC-Bulletin Board.


NOTE 11 - SEGMENT OF BUSINESS REPORTING

The Company's four reportable segments are as follows:

o  Telecommunications services - includes long-distance toll services (I-Link
   and Nexbell) and enhanced calling features such as V-Link. The
   telecommunications services products are marketed primarily to residential
   and small business customers.

o  Dial-around telecommunication services - includes operations of WorldxChange
   that offers a dial around telecommunications product through independent
   marketing agents. This business was entered into effective June 4, 2001 with
   the Company's purchase of certain assets and liabilities of WorldxChange
   Communications, Inc.

o  Marketing services - includes training and promotional materials to
   independent sales representatives (IRs) in the network marketing sales
   channel. Additionally, revenues are generated from registration fees paid by
   IRs to attend regional and national sales conferences. This segment ceased
   operations in February 2000.

o  Technology licensing and development - provides research and development to
   enhance the Company's product and technology offerings. Products developed by
   this segment include V-Link, Indavo, and other proprietary technology. The
   Company licenses certain developed technology to third party users, such as
   Red Cube, Lucent, Brooktrout and others.

There are no intersegment revenues. The Company's business is conducted
principally in the U.S.; foreign operations are not material. The table below
presents information about revenues from external customers and net loss for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. There has been
no material change in segment assets from the amounts reported in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 except that
segment assets for telecommunication services has increased by approximately
$10,000,000 due to the acquisition of WebToTel and segment assets for
dial-around telecommunication services has increased by approximately
$33,000,000 due to the acquisition of WorldxChange.

ITEM 2- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information
contained in the financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto
appearing elsewhere herein and in conjunction with the Management's Discussion
and Analysis set forth in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 and
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2001.

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

      THIS REPORT CONTAINS CERTAIN "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" WITHIN THE
MEANING OF SECTION 27-A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF `1933, AS AMENDED, SECTION 21-E
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, AND INFORMATION RELATING TO
I-LINK THAT ARE BASED ON MANAGEMENT'S EXERCISE OF BUSINESS JUDGEMENT AS WELL AS
ASSUMPTIONS MADE BY AND INFORMATION CURRENTLY AVAILABLE TO MANAGEMENT. WHEN USED
IN THIS DOCUMENT, THE WORDS "ANTICIPATE," "BELIEVE," "ESTIMATE," "EXPECT," AND
"INTEND" AND WORDS OF SIMILAR IMPORT, ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY ANY
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. YOU SHOULD NOT PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE ON THESE
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE STATEMENTS REFLECT OUR CURRENT VIEW OF FUTURE
EVENTS AND ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES AS NOTED BELOW. SHOULD
ONE OR MORE OF THESE RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES MATERIALIZE, OR SHOULD UNDERLYING
ASSUMPTIONS PROVE INCORRECT, OUR ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM
THOSE ANTICIPATED IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. .

Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions,
we can give no assurance that our expectations will materialize. Many factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking
statements. Several of these factors include, without limitation: our ability to
efficiently integrate our recent acquisitions; our ability to finance and manage
expected rapid growth; the impact of competitive services and pricing; our
ongoing relationship with our long distance carriers and vendors; dependence
upon key personnel; subscriber attrition; the adoption of new, or changes in,
accounting principles; legal proceedings; federal and state governmental
regulation of the long distance telecommunications and internet industries; our
ability to maintain, operate and upgrade our information systems network; our
success in deploying our Communication Engine network in internet telephony; the
existence of demand for and acceptance of our products and services (including
but not limited to METS, dial-around service, V-Link(TM) and Indavo(TM)); the
migrating of subscribers from a retail billing basis to a wholesale billing
basis; the continued increasing revenues from GateLink(TM) and other wholesale
clients as well as other risks referenced from time to time in our filings with
the SEC.

We undertake no obligation and do not intend to update, revise or otherwise
publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect
events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of
any unanticipated events.

OPERATIONS

We are an integrated voice and data communications company focused on
simplifying the delivery of "Unified Communication." Unified Communication is
the integration of traditional telecommunications with new data IP (Internet
Protocol) communications systems with the effect of simplifying communications,
increasing communication capabilities and lowering overall communication costs.
Unified Communication platforms integrate telecommunication, mobile
communication, paging, voice-over-IP (VoIP) and Internet technologies. We
provide enhanced telecommunications services on a wholesale and retail basis. We
also undertake research and development of new telecommunications services,
products and technologies, and the licensing of certain of these products and
technologies to other telecommunications companies. We are a leader in the
delivery of unified communications as a result of our core technology offerings:
I-Link's Intranet, Softswitch Plus(TM), GateLink(TM) and Indavo(TM).

We merged with WebToTel Inc. ("WebToTel") and its subsidiary Nexbell
Communications Inc. ("Nexbell") on April 17, 2001. However as I-Link, WebToTel
and Nexbell were under common control of Counsel Communications LLC, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Counsel Corporation (collectively "Counsel") as of March 1,
2001, we have reflected the merger as if it had occurred on March 1, 2001. As a
result of the merger, we purchased a private, managed IP telephony network that
delivers packet voice services to over 400 key metropolitan areas in the United
States. Nexbell's first product offering, Multi-Exchange


                                       14
<Page>

Transport Service ("METS"), provides customers with VoIP based local access
origination and termination services through 13 domestic points of presence.

On June 4, 2001, I-Link Incorporated, through it's wholly owned subsidiary
WorldxChange Corp. ("WorldxChange"), purchased certain assets and assumed
certain liabilities of WorldxChange Communications, Inc. out a bankruptcy.
WorldxChange is a facilities-based telecommunications carrier that provides
international and domestic long-distance service to retail customers.
Telecommunication services provided by WorldxChange consist primarily of a
dial-around product. A dial-around product allows a customer to make a call from
any phone by dialing a 10-10-XXX prefix. The phone call will then be billed
directly to the customer. Billings to these customers are primarily done through
the customers' local exchange carrier ("LEC"). Marketing of the dial-around
product is primarily done through independent marketing agents that receive a
commission. WorldxChange's retail base is comprised of residential and
commercial customers.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2001 were $1,744,556 and the working
capital deficit was $31,364,705. Cash used by operating activities during the
six-month period ended June 30, 2001 was $15,023,581 as compared to cash
provided by operations of $3,717,922 during the same period ended June 30, 2000.
The primary reason for the change from 2000 was that cash provided by operating
activities in 2000 included $10,000,000 received as of June 30, 2000 from a
customer, Red Cube, International AG and Red Cube, Inc. ("Red Cube"), which did
not recur in 2001.

Net cash used by investing activities in the six-month period ended June 30,
2001 was $13,483,166 as compared to net cash used of $2,950,760 in the same
period ended June 30, 2000. Cash used by investing activities in 2001 was
attributed to $13,000,000 used to purchase the net assets of WorldxChange and
$716,953 used to purchase equipment. These uses of cash were offset by cash of
$233,787 received as part of the WebToTel acquisition. Cash used by investing
activities in 2000 was primarily attributable to the purchase of network
equipment of $2,970,434 which was offset by $19,674 received from the sale of
certain assets from discontinued operations.

Financing activities provided net cash of $28,095,675 in the first six-months of
2001 as compared to cash provided of $3,441,456 in the same period of 2000. Cash
provided in the first six-months of 2001 included loans from Counsel of
$28,325,700 and $2,100 from issuances of common stock which were offset by
repayment of notes payable and capital lease obligations of $232,125. Cash
provided in 2000 included proceeds of $2,600,000 from a note payable to a
related party, $3,532,719 in net proceeds from exercises of common stock
warrants and options and a $1,751,183 advance received under the strategic
marketing and channel agreement with a customer. The $2,600,000 note and
$1,751,183 advance were both repaid during the second quarter of 2000.
Repayments of capital lease obligations of $66,544 and repayments of $24,719 on
certain notes in discontinued operations offset these proceeds.

We incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $9,508,781 for the first
six-months of 2001, and as of June 30, 2001 had an accumulated deficit of
$131,145,624. We anticipate that revenue generated from continuing operations
will not be sufficient during the remainder of 2001 to fund our operations or
continued expansion of our private telecommunications network facilities and
anticipated growth in subscriber base. We continue to be dependent upon funding
from Counsel to fund our operational cash needs.


CURRENT POSITION/FUTURE REQUIREMENTS

While revenues from operations have increased significantly, operational
expenses have also increase thus continuing our need for sources of operational
funds other than from operations. Our operational cash needs continue to be
funded through our agreement with Counsel wherein Counsel committed to fund,
through long-term inter-company advances or equity contribution, all capital
investment, working capital or other operational cash requirements through April
15, 2002. We anticipate that additional funds will be necessary after such time
to fund our operations and finance the planned expansion of our business
communications services, product development and manufacturing, and to discharge
our financial obligations. The availability of such funds will depend on
prevailing market conditions, interest rates, and the financial position and


                                       15
<Page>

results of our operations. There can be no assurance that such funds will be
available or if available that they will be on terms and conditions favorable to
I-Link.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In order to more fully understand the comparison of the three and six months
ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same three and six months in 2000, you
must understand two significant business transactions that are reflected in our
2001 financial results, for which there are not comparable transactions in 2000.
Specifically:

            1.    We acquired WebToTel Incorporated and its subsidiary
                  Nexbell Communications in a stock for stock transaction on
                  April 17, 2001. However, as WebToTel and I-Link were under
                  common control of Counsel as of March 1, 2001 (the date
                  Counsel obtained its ownership in I-Link), we have
                  accounted for the acquisition on an accounting method
                  consistent with the pooling-of-interests method of
                  accounting as of March 1, 2001. Accordingly, we have
                  included the financial results of WebToTel subsequent to
                  March1, 2001.

            2.    On June 4, 2001 we completed the purchase
                  of certain assets and liabilities of WorldxChange
                  Communication, Inc. We continue to offer the dial-around
                  telecommunications product, which this company had
                  previously offered. We did not offer a comparable product
                  prior to June 4, 2001.

THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE
30, 2000


REVENUES

Telecommunications service revenue increased $14,819,329 to $19,408,441 in the
three months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to $4,589,112 in the three months
ended June 30, 2000. The increase is primarily the result of the recognition of
previously reported unearned revenue related to a prepayment from Red Cube and
two acquisitions during 2001. According to the terms of the agreement, Red Cube
was to use services related to the prepayment prior to June 30, 2001. Unused
services as of June 30, 2001were approximately $9,543,000. As the Company has no
further obligation under the prepayment arrangement, the $9,543,000 was
recognized as revenue as of June 30, 2001. We do not expect any significant
revenues from Red Cube in the future. Revenues also increased due to the
acquisition of two companies. Revenue in the second quarter increased $5,932,000
related to the dial-around business of WorldxChange and $868,000 related to
telecommunications services offered by Nexbell. Excluding the above revenues,
recurring revenues decreased as a direct result of a shift in focus from retail
to wholesale sales resulting in a decrease in revenues of $1,524,000 which was
due to a combination of a 44% drop in the rate per minute and a 52% increase in
minutes billed. We anticipate that reported revenues for the third quarter from
WorldxChange will be approximately three times those for the second quarter (due
to inclusion of three months of revenue in the third quarter versus one month in
the second quarter). We anticipate revenues from other recurring sources will
increase slightly in the third quarter.

Technology licensing and development revenue decreased $319,908 to $1,419,998 in
the second quarter of 2001 as compared to $1,739,906 in the same quarter of
2000. During the three months ended June 30, 2001, licensing revenues were
primarily from a $10,000,000 licensing agreement in May 2000, between Red Cube
and I-Link that is being recorded over a two-year period. Accordingly,
$1,250,000 was recorded in the second quarter of 2001 as compared to $833,333 in
the same quarter of 2000. As of June 30, 2001, the unearned balance of
$4,166,667 has been recorded as unearned revenue. Other than Red Cube as
discussed above, technology licensing and development revenues decreased
$737,000 due to the contracts occurring in the second quarter of 2000 which did
not recur in the same period of 2001. Revenue from this source will vary from
quarter to quarter based on timing of future technology licensing and
development projects.

Other revenues in the second quarter of 2001 decreased $490,104 to $518,459 as
compared to $1,008,563 in the same period of 2000. The revenues relate primarily
to customer care, billing and accounts receivable services performed primarily
for our single largest customer. The decrease from the second quarter of 2000 to
the second quarter of 2001 was anticipated as many of the services previously
rendered to this customer were transitioned to the customer. Revenues from these
services are expected


                                       16
<Page>

to remain constant in the third quarter of 2001. However,
revenues from these types of services vary from period to period based upon
services requested.


OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES

Telecommunication network expense increased $8,177,860 in the second quarter of
2001 to $13,715,806 as compared to $5,537,946 for the same quarter of 2000. The
primary increase was related to inclusion of network expense related to the
dial-around business that we began to offer June 4, 2001 when we acquired
certain assets and liabilities of WorldxChange Communications, Inc. These
expenses include the costs related to the continuing development and deployment
of our communication network and expenses related to the generation of
telecommunication service revenue. The inclusion of WebToTel as of March 1,
2001, increased telecommunication expenses $1,750,000. The inclusion of
WorldxChange for the month of June 2001 increased telecommunication expenses
$5,315,000. Telecommunications network expense will increase dramatically in the
third quarter as a direct result of additional revenues and the corresponding
network expense from WorldxChange in the same period.

Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $21,593 to $5,703,360 in
the second quarter of 2001 as compared to $5,724,953 in the second quarter of
2000. The primary components of the net decrease consisted of an approximate
$1,100,000 due to decreases in salaries and benefits as a result of the work
force reductions in January and May of 2001 and a $573,000 reduction in other
corporate expenses related to the work force reduction (facilities, materials
etc.) and other cost cutting measures instituted by management. These reductions
were offset by additional selling, general and administrative cost of
approximately $1,144,000 related to the WorldxChange dial-around business that
began June 4, 2001and $553,000 relating to WebToTel.

The provision for doubtful accounts increased $1,215,210 to $1,269,397 in the
second quarter of 2001 as compared to $54,187 in the same quarter of 2000. The
increase was directly due to necessary provisions for doubtful accounts
associated with two sources of revenues. During the second quarter of 2001 we
recorded an allowance for accounts receivable from a major customer in the
amount of $975,000 due to the termination of their agreement and pending
arbitration. Additional reserves of $280,000 were recorded related to
WorldxChange dial-around business, which began June 4, 2001, and WebToTel
accounts receivable.

Depreciation and amortization increased $769,990 to $2,330,806 in the second
quarter of 2001 as compared to $1,560,816 in the second quarter of 2000. The
increase is primarily due to depreciation and amortization relating to assets
(primarily goodwill amortization of $457,000) acquired in the WebToTel and
WorldxChange acquisitions. Additionally, WorldxChange entered into a $9,000,000
capital lease in June of 2001 that resulted in approximately $188,000 of the
increase. Depreciation will continue to increase in the third quarter primarily
as a result of three months of depreciation, rather than one month in the second
quarter, related to WorldxChange assets.

Research and development decreased $317,832 to $523,614 in the second quarter of
2001 as compared to $841,446 in the same period of 2000. The decrease was
primarily a result of our decision to consolidate our research operations at our
headquarters in Draper, Utah. We anticipate that research and development
expense will continue at a comparable amount during the remainder of 2001.


OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Interest expense increased $316,311 to $666,792 in the second quarter of 2001 as
compared to $350,481 in the same quarter of 2000. Interest in the second quarter
of 2001 was primarily due to interest on related party debt which was $58,000
higher in the second quarter of 2001 compared to the same period of 2000 due to
higher average balances outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2001.
We also recorded non-cash interest expense of $172,000 in the second quarter of
2001 related to the amortization of a beneficial conversion feature on
convertible debt with Counsel and non-cash interest related to the value of
warrants issued to Counsel in connection with a loan. Interest on other debt
increased $86,000 as a result of increased average balances of debt outstanding.
Interest expense in the third quarter will increase significantly as the Company
continues to accrue


                                       17
<Page>

interest on borrowings from Counsel and non-cash interest
related to the value of warrants issued to Counsel in connection with a loan.
Interest expense in the third quarter will also increase due to inclusion of
interest on WorldxChange's debt related to its capital leases.

Interest and other income decreased $89,379 to $23,590 in the second quarter of
2001 as compared to $112,969 in the same quarter of 2000. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of cash on hand in the second
quarter of 2001 as compared to the same quarter of 2000.


SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE
30, 2000


REVENUES

Telecommunications service revenue increased $13,953,105 to $23,829,424 in the
first six months of 2001 as compared to $9,876,319 in the first six months of
2000. The increase is primarily the result of the recognition of previously
reported unearned revenue related to a prepayment from Red Cube and two
acquisitions during 2001. According to the terms of the agreement, Red Cube was
to use services related to the prepayment prior to June 30, 2001. Unused
services as of June 30, 2001were approximately $9,543,000. As the Company has no
further obligation under the prepayment arrangement, the $9,543,000 was
recognized as revenue as of June 30, 2001. We do not expect any significant
revenues from Red Cube in the future. Revenues also increased due to the
acquisition of two companies. Revenue in the first six months of 2001 increased
$5,932,000 related to the dial-around business of WorldxChange and $1,161,000
(representing revenues from March to June of 2001) related to Nexbell's METS
product. Excluding the above revenues, recurring revenues decreased as a direct
result of a shift in focus from retail to wholesale sales resulting in a
decrease in revenues of $2,683,000 which was due to a combination of a 52% drop
in the rate per minute and a 68% increase in minutes billed.

Marketing services revenue, which included revenue from independent
representatives for promotional and presentation materials, WebCentre, and
ongoing administrative support decreased $464,354 to $0 in the first six-months
of 2001 as compared to $464,354 in the same period of 2000. The decrease was a
result of transition of this network-marketing channel to Big Planet in February
2000, which with such transition, marketing service revenues ceased.

Technology licensing and development revenue decreased $3,389,509 to $2,856,897
in the first six months of 2001 as compared to $6,246,406 in the first six
months of 2000. During the first six months of 2001, the revenues were primarily
from a $10,000,000 licensing agreement in May 2000, between Red Cube and I-Link
that is being recorded over a two-year period. Accordingly, $2,500,000 was
recorded in the first six months of 2001 as compared to $833,333 in the first
six months of 2000. As of June 30, 2001, the unearned balance of $4,166,667 has
been recorded as unearned revenue. During the first six months of 2000, revenues
of $4,000,000 were recorded related to two licensing agreements that did not
recur in 2001. Revenue from this source will vary from quarter to quarter based
on timing of technology licensing and development projects.

Other revenues in the first six months of 2001 decreased $524,625 to $1,185,042
as compared to $1,709,667 in the first six months of 2000. The first six months
of 2001 includes $999,000 as compared to $1,310,000 in the same period of 2000,
which represent revenues relating to customer care, billing and accounts
receivable services performed for our single largest customer. The decrease from
the first six months of 2000 to the first six months of 2001 was an anticipated
decrease as many of the services rendered in 2000 to this customer were
transitioned to the customer. However, revenues from these types of services
vary from period to period based upon services requested. During the first six
months of 2000 other revenues also included royalties of $400,000 from the sale
of Indavo units to a company which will not use the Indavo units over the I-Link
Network. There were no comparable sales of Indavo in 2001.


OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES

Telecommunication network expense increased $8,374,504 in the six months ended
June 30, 2001 to $20,025,512 as compared to $11,651,008 for the same period in
2000. These expenses include the costs related to the continuing


                                       18
<Page>

development and deployment of our communication network and expenses related
to the generation of telecommunication service revenue. While
telecommunication network expense is directly related to telecommunication
services revenues, the relationship is not comparable with the same period in
2000 due to the transition to wholesale rather than retail revenues as a
result of the agreement with Big Planet. The inclusion of Nexbell for the
period from March to June 2001 increased telecommunication expenses
$2,325,000. The inclusion of WorldxChange for the month of June 2001
increased telecommunication expenses $5,315,000. Telecommunications network
expense will increase dramatically in the third quarter as a direct result of
additional revenues from WorldxChange in the same period.

Marketing service costs decreased $349,034 to $0 in the first six months of 2001
as compared to $349,034 for the same period in 2000. The decrease in expense is
directly related to the transition of the network-marketing channel to Big
Planet in February 2000, which resulted in the cessation of marketing service
revenues and accordingly the related expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $202,300 to $9,441,741 in
the first six months of 2001 as compared to $9,644,041 in the first six months
in 2000. The primary components of the net decrease consisted of approximately
$1,654,000 due to decreases in salaries and benefits as a result of the work
force reductions in January and May of 2001 and a $573,000 reduction in other
corporate expenses related to the work force reduction (facilities, materials
etc.) and other cost cutting measures instituted by management. These reductions
were primarily offset by additional selling, general and administrative cost of
approximately $1,143,000 related to WorldxChange dial-around business that began
June 4, 2001and $721,000 relating to WebToTel.

The provision for doubtful accounts increased $997,853 to $1,377,756 in the six
months of 2001 as compared to $379,903 in the same period in 2000. The increase
was directly due to necessary provisions for doubtful accounts associated with
two sources of revenues. During the second quarter of 2001 we recorded an
allowance for accounts receivable from a major customer in the amount of
$975,000 due to the termination of their agreement and pending arbitration.
Additional reserves of $350,000 were recorded related to the WorldxChange
dial-around business, which began June 4, 2001, and revenues related to the
WebToTel acquisition included in our financial statements after March 1, 2001.
Excluding the impact of Red Cube, WorldxChange and WebToTel, our provision for
doubtful accounts for the first six months of 2001 decreased from 2000 due to
the transition of most of our retail business to wholesale effective February
2000 which reduced our bad debt expense.

Depreciation and amortization increased $932,086 to $3,981,791 in the first six
months of 2001 as compared to $3,049,705 in the first six months of 2000. The
increase is primarily due to depreciation and amortization relating to assets
(primarily goodwill amortization of $610,000) acquired in the WebToTel and
WorldxChange acquisitions. Additionally, WorldxChange entered into a $9,000,000
capital lease in June of 2001 that resulted in approximately $188,000 of the
increase. Depreciation will continue to increase in the third quarter primarily
as a result of three months of depreciation, rather than one month in the second
quarter, related to WorldxChange assets.

Research and development decreased $83,986 to $1,590,372 in the first six months
of 2001 as compared to $1,674,358 in the same period in 2000. The decrease was
primarily a result of our decision to consolidate our research operations at our
headquarters in Draper, Utah. We anticipate that research and development
expense will approximate $500,000 in the third quarter of 2001.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Interest expense increased $220,310 to $1,014,633 in the first six months of
2001 as compared to $794,323 in the same period of 2000. We recorded non-cash
interest expense of $201,500 in the first six months of 2001 related to the
amortization of a beneficial conversion feature on convertible debt with Counsel
and interest related to the value of warrants issued to Counsel in connection
with a loan. Interest on other debt, including related party debt, in the first
six months of 2001 was comparable to the same period of 2000. Interest expense
in the third quarter will increase significantly as we continue to accrue
interest on borrowings from Counsel and record non-cash interest related to the
beneficial conversion feature on convertible debt and the value of warrants
issued to Counsel in connection with a loan. Interest expense in the third
quarter will also increase due to inclusion of three months interest on
WorldxChange debt related to its capital leases, as compared to one month in the
second quarter.

                                       19
<Page>

Interest and other income decreased $99,135 to $51,661 in the first six months
of 2001 as compared to $150,796 in the same period of 2000. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of cash on hand in the first
six months of 2001.

A settlement expense of $639,565 was recorded in the first six months of 2000.
This expense is the result of an obligation to issue 129,519 shares of common
stock in exchange for certain trading restrictions imposed on JNC Opportunity
Fund Ltd. ("JNC") in relation to the common stock to be issued to JNC pursuant
to a settlement and release agreement entered into in February 2000. There was
no comparable expense in the first six months of 2001.


ITEM 3- QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to market risk is limited to interest income sensitivity, which is
affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. Our cash
equivalents are invested with high quality issuers and limit the amount of
credit exposure to any one issuer. Due to the short-term nature of the cash
equivalents, we believe that we are not subject to any material interest rate
risk. We did not have any foreign currency hedges or other derivative financial
instruments as of March 31, 2001.

We do not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes
and do not currently utilize derivative financial instruments. Our operations
are conducted primarily in the United States and as such are not subject to
material foreign currency exchange rate risk.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We have previously reported the lawsuit and arbitration proceeding that were
brought against I-Link and I-Link Worldwide LLC by Steven J. Little, a former
independent representative of I-Link Worldwide, L.L.C. From April 23, 2001
through April 27, 2001 and on May 14, 2001 an evidentiary arbitration hearing,
which is the functional equivalent of trial, was conducted by the arbitrator.
During the six day arbitration hearing Mr. Little fully presented his claims
against I-Link and I-Link Worldwide, LLC and I-Link and I-Link Worldwide, LLC
presented their defenses. On June 1, 2001 the arbitrator issued a written
decision concluding that neither I-Link nor I-Link Worldwide, LLC owe Mr. Little
any monetary reward. On June 25, 2001, Mr. Little filed a motion to modify the
arbitration award in the arbitration proceeding which the arbitrator denied.
Also, on June 25, 2001, Mr. Little filed a motion to vacate or modify the
arbitration award in the litigation preceding in State Court of Utah. The court
denied Mr. Little's motion and confirmed the arbitrator's decision.

On January 18, 2001, I-Link Incorporated ("I-Link") filed action against Red
Cube, International AG and Red Cube, Inc. ("Red Cube") in federal court in Utah
seeking damages against Red Cube, for an alleged default on an agreement to
provide approximately $60,000,000 in equity funding to I-Link, and instituting a
scheme to drive I-Link out of business and obtain control of I-Link's
proprietary technology, telecommunications network, key employees and customers.
I-Link obtained a temporary restraining order against Red Cube preventing Red
Cube from interfering with I-Link's employees, vendors and customers. Red Cube
commenced an arbitration proceeding in New York (see next paragraph) and then
filed a motion to dismiss the federal court action and compel arbitration based
upon a mandatory arbitration provision in the May 2000 Cooperation and Framework
Agreement by and between Red Cube and I-Link. The court found that I-Link's
claims were "related to" the Cooperation and Framework Agreement and granted Red
Cube's motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The dismissal
resulted in this issue being submitted for AAA arbitration pursuant to the
Cooperation and Framework Agreement.

On January 24, 2001, Red Cube, after the federal court action described above
had been commenced against it by I-Link, delivered a written demand for
arbitration and commenced an arbitration proceeding in New York alleging that
I-Link breached the Cooperation and Framework Agreement by (i) threatening a
shut-down of I-Link's IP telecommunications network, (ii) the resignation of
Dror Nahumi as an employee of I-Link (which Red Cube claims will cause I-Link to
breach its undertaking to provide certain consulting services in the event
I-Link is unable to perform under the Agreement and Red Cube is required to
assume primary operation and maintenance of it's own IP telecommunications
network based upon I-Link's technology), and (iii) I-Link's alleged failure to
update the escrowed copy of its source code to the current version of the source
code employed to maintain the IP telecommunications network. When the federal
court action was dismissed in favor of the arbitration proceeding, I-Link filed
a response in the arbitration proceeding denying all of Red Cube's claims.
I-Link also filed a counterclaim against Red Cube virtually identical to the
claims it initially brought against Red Cube in the federal court action seeking
compensatory and/or punitive damages for Red Cube's default under a subsequent
agreement to provide approximately $60,000,000 in equity funding to I-Link, and
engaging in a scheme to drive I-Link out of business and obtain control of
I-Link's proprietary technology, telecommunications network, key employees and
customers. In May 2001 Red Cube amended its claim to include additional
allegations that I-Link undertook certain unspecified "significant transactions"
in violation of its agreements with I-Link's then majority shareholder, Winter
Harbor, LLC (with which Red Cube is also currently engaged in arbitration) which
resulted in damage to Red Cube. I-Link has denied these additional allegations.
The arbitration proceeding is in the discovery stage.

In June 2001, I-Link gave notice to Red Cube that it intended to cease providing
international carrier services to Red Cube (representing the vast majority of
all services performed for Red Cube) as a result of Red Cube's failure to
provide I-Link adequate assurance of ongoing payment for such services. Red Cube
sought emergency relief in the arbitration attempting to prohibit I-Link from
terminating these services. A hearing was held before the arbitration panel in
July 2001 and Red Cube's request for relief was denied. I-Link ceased providing
international carrier services to Red Cube immediately thereafter.

On February 8, 2001, The Nasdaq Stock Market, Nasdaq Listing Qualifications
Department (the "Staff"), notified the Company that its securities would be
de-listed from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market (the "SmallCap Market") for the
Company's inability to meet a SmallCap Market continued inclusion requirement
for $35,000,000 in market capitalization. Subsequently, the Staff, in its March
8, 2001 correspondence, notified I-Link that the Company no longer complied with
the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share as set forth in National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") Rule 4310(c)(4). Subsequently,
on June 11, 2001, the Staff raised additional


                                       21
<Page>

concern regarding the Company's issuances of stock and debt to Counsel
Corporation in connection with the Loan and NexBell transactions (as defined
below) (it was alleged that said stock issuances by I-Link should have been
approved by I-Link's stockholders). On May 17, 2001, an oral hearing was held
before a panel of the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the "Panel"),
relating to the various concerns raised by the Staff.

On July 17, 2001, the Panel issued a decision to continue the listing of
I-Link's securities on the SmallCap Market in accordance with the exception from
certain continued listing criteria. Under the terms and conditions of the
exception, I-Link is required, on or before August 3, 2001, to file a proxy
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and Nasdaq
evidencing I-Link's intent (1) to seek shareholder approval for a reverse stock
sufficient to evidence a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share, and (2)
to seek shareholder ratification for the issuance of shares of its common stock
to Counsel Corporation in connection with (i) March 1, 2001 Senior Convertible
Loan and Security Agreement with Counsel Communications LLC, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Counsel Corporation (the "Loan transaction") and (ii) April 17,
2001 Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among I-Link and I-Link Acquisition
Corp., a Delaware corporation and I-Link's wholly owned subsidiary, on the one
hand, and WebToTel, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Counsel Corporation, and
certain other shareholders, on the other hand (the "NexBell transaction").

On July 30, 2001, the Company filed a revised preliminary proxy statement with
the SEC and Nasdaq. I-Link's compliance with the first requirement necessary for
continued listing on the SmallCap was acknowledged in the Staff correspondence
dated August 9, 2001. As a result of its compliance with the foregoing
requirement, the Panel determined to continue the continued listing exception
through September 5, 2001. On August 16, 2001, the Nasdaq Staff satisfied
I-Link's request for an extension to effect the proposed reverse stock split and
extended the compliance deadline from September 5, 2001 to September 13, 2001.
Pursuant to the terms of the August 16, 2001 reiteration of the Panel's
determination, on or before September 13, 2001, I-Link is required to submit to
Nasdaq documentation evidencing receipt of shareholder ratification for stock
issuances to Counsel Corporation in connection with the Loan and NexBell
transactions. In addition, the Company, on or before September 13, 2001, must
demonstrate closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share and, immediately
thereafter, a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10
consecutive trading days. Further, the Company, on or before September 13, 2001,
must demonstrate a market capitalization of at least $35,000,000 and,
immediately after, a market capitalization of at least $35,000,000 for a minimum
of 10 consecutive trading days. As of the date of this filing, I-Link is not in
compliance with the SmallCap Market capitalization continued listing criterion.
There is no assurance that I-Link will comply with this requirement even if the
proposed reverse stock split is effected as described in this proxy statement.
Under the terms of the Panel's July 17, 2001 decision (as well as its August 16,
2001 reiteration), I-Link's non-compliance with the market capitalization
criterion, on or before September 13, 2001, will result in the de-listing of its
securities from the SmallCap Market. I-Link must comply with all of the
foregoing continued listing requirements in order to for its securities to
remain listed on the SmallCap Market. In the event the Company fails to meet any
one of the requirements as set forth in the July 17, 2001 Panel decision (as
well as the August 16, 2001 reiteration of the same), the Company's common stock
will be de-listed from the SmallCap Market. Should I-Link's securities cease to
be listed on the SmallCap Market, its securities may continue to be listed on
the OTC-Bulletin Board.

                           LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT


            THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT ("AGREEMENT") is made and entered
into as of June 6, 2001, by and between I-LINK INCORPORATED, a Florida
corporation (the "BORROWER") and COUNSEL CORPORATION (US), a Delaware
corporation (the "LENDER").

WHEREAS, Lender owns approximately sixty seven percent (67%) of the common stock
of Borrower and will derive substantial benefits from the making of loans
hereunder; and

            WHEREAS, the Lender desires to provide financing and both the Lender
and the Borrower believe that it is in their mutual interest to enter into this
Agreement.

            NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged it is agreed as follows:

            Section 1. PERIODIC LOANS. From and after the date hereof through
and until the termination of the Term (defined below), Lender may make periodic
loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any one time
outstanding, not to exceed ten million dollars ($10,000,000) (the "MAXIMUM
AMOUNT"). Borrower shall execute a promissory note substantially in the form
attached as EXHIBIT A evidencing its obligations hereunder (the "NOTE"). During
the Term, from time to time, Borrower may notify the Lender of its need to
borrow funds pursuant to this Agreement for capital investments, working capital
or other operational cash requirements of Borrower. Any funds advanced by Lender
for capital investments, working capital or other operational cash requirements
of Borrower during the Term up to the Maximum Amount shall be governed by this
Agreement.

      Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that on June 6, 2001 Lender
disbursed to Borrower six hundred seventeen thousand dollars ($617,000) and of
that amount seventy five thousand seven hundred dollars ($75,700) was lent to
Borrower under this Agreement.

            Section 2. PERIODIC FINANCE CHARGES. All principal and interest then
outstanding shall bear interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum,
compounded quarterly. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360
days and the actual number of days elapsed during the period for which such
interest is payable.

            Section 3. PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. All principal under
the Note shall be due and payable by the Borrower no later than June 6, 2002
("MATURITY DATE"). All interest outstanding shall be due and payable by the
Borrower on the first day of each quarter, provided that Lender may, in its sole
discretion, elect to allow interest to accrue and become payable at the end of
the Term. The Borrower may, from time to time, in its discretion, make one or
more periodic payments of principal or interest to the Lender. Such payments
shall be credited to the Borrower's account on the date that such payment is
actually received by the Lender.

            Section 4. TERM. The term of this Agreement (the "TERM") shall
commence on the date hereof and shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the
issuance of debt by the Borrower to a third-party in an amount greater than or
equal to ten million dollars ($10,000,000) ("FUTURE DEBT ISSUANCE"), provided,
however, that the proceeds of such Future Debt Issuance are not used to repay
indebtedness to the Lender, or (ii) April 15, 2002, unless terminated earlier
pursuant to the default provisions of this Agreement.

            Section 5. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. In order to secure the
payment of all obligations of Borrower to Lender under this Agreement, the Note,
and any and all amendments, modifications, renewals or restatements thereof, and
all further extensions of credit made to Borrower from time to time by Lender
whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (the "SECURED OBLIGATIONS"), the
Borrower hereby grants to the Lender (or its designee) (the "SECURED PARTIES") a
security interest in all of Borrower's assets, now owned or hereinafter
acquired, now in existence or hereafter arising, wherever located (the
"COLLATERAL"), including, without limitation the property described below on the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement:

            (a) presently existing and hereafter arising accounts, contract
rights, and all other forms of obligations owing to Borrower arising out of the
sale or lease of goods or the rendition of services by Borrower, whether or not
earned by performance, and any and all credit insurance, guaranties, and other
security therefor, as

<Page>

well as all merchandise returned to or reclaimed by Borrower and Borrower's
Books relating to any of the foregoing (collectively, "ACCOUNTS");

            (b) present and future general intangibles and other personal
property (including choses or things in action, goodwill, patents, trade names,
trademarks, servicemarks, copyrights, blueprints, drawings, purchase orders,
customer lists, monies due or recoverable from pension funds, route lists,
monies due under any royalty or licensing agreements, infringement claims,
computer programs, computer discs, computer tapes, literature, reports, catalogs
deposit accounts, insurance premium rebates, tax refunds, and tax refund claims)
other than goods and Accounts, and Borrower's Books relating to any of the
foregoing (collectively, "GENERAL INTANGIBLES");

            (c) present and future letters of credit, notes, drafts,
instruments, certificated and uncertificated securities, documents, leases, and
chattel paper, and Borrower's Books relating to any of the foregoing
(collectively, "NEGOTIABLE COLLATERAL");

            (d) present and future inventory in which Borrower has any interest,
including goods held for sale or lease or to be furnished under a contract of
service and all of Borrower's present and future raw materials, work in process,
finished goods, and packing and shipping materials, wherever located, and any
documents of title representing any of the above, and Borrower's Books relating
to any of the foregoing (collectively, "INVENTORY");

            (e) present and hereafter acquired computers, communications
equipment, software code, network servers, switches and other related equipment,
and any interest in any of the foregoing, and all attachments, accessories,
accessions, replacements, substitutions, additions, and improvements to any of
the foregoing, wherever located (collectively, "EQUIPMENT");

            (f) books and records including: ledgers; records indicating,
summarizing, or evidencing Borrower's assets or liabilities, or the collateral;
all information relating to Borrower's business operations or financial
condition; and all computer programs, disc or tape files, printouts, funds or
other computer prepared information, and the equipment containing such
information (collectively, "BORROWER'S BOOKS"); and

            (g) substitutions, replacements, additions, accessions, proceeds,
products to or of any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, proceeds
of insurance covering any of the foregoing, or any portion thereof, and any and
all accounts, general intangibles, negotiable, collateral, inventory, equipment,
money, deposits, accounts, or other tangible or intangible property resulting
from the sale or other disposition of the Accounts, General Intangibles,
Negotiable Collateral, Inventory, Equipment, or any portion thereof or interest
therein and the proceeds thereof.

      To the extent that Borrower's creation of the foregoing security interest
in any portion of the Collateral requires the pre-approval of a state regulatory
agency, the creation of the foregoing security interest with respect to such
state is subject to and contingent upon Borrower obtaining such state regulatory
agency's pre-approval.

            Section 6.  COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  The Borrower
represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as follows:

            (a)  PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.  The Borrower shall promptly

this Agreement, and the execution and payment of the Note issued pursuant to the
terms hereof are within Borrower's corporate powers, have been duly authorized,

incorporation and bylaws, or of any indenture, agreement, or undertaking to
which the Borrower is a party or by which it is bound.

            (d) OWNERSHIP OF COLLATERAL. The Borrower is the sole owner of the

diligently pursue all required governmental or regulatory approvals necessitated
by this Agreement.

            Section 7. SALE OR REMOVAL OF COLLATERAL PROHIBITED. Except for the
sale of inventory in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, the Borrower
shall not sell, lease, encumber, pledge, mortgage, assign, grant a security
interest in, or otherwise transfer the Collateral without the Lender's prior
written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

            Section 8. PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST. From the date hereof,
Borrower agrees to execute and file financing statements, and do whatever may be
reasonably necessary under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code in the state
where the Collateral is located, to perfect and continue the Lender's interest
in the Collateral, all at the Borrower's expense.

            Section 9. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS. The Borrower will pay or cause to
be paid promptly when due all taxes and assessments on the Collateral, this
Agreement and the Note. The Borrower may, however, withhold payment of any tax
assessment or claim if a good faith dispute exists as to the obligation to pay.

            Section 10. INSURANCE. The Borrower shall have and maintain, or
cause to be maintained, insurance at all times with respect to all Collateral
except accounts receivable, against such risks as the Lender may reasonably
require, in such form, for such periods, and written by such companies as may be
satisfactory to the Lender. All policies of insurance shall have endorsed a loss
payable clause acceptable to the Lender and/or such other endorsements as the
Lender may from time to time request, and the Borrower will promptly, on
request, provide the Lender with the original policies or certificates of such
insurance. The Borrower shall promptly notify the Lender of any loss or damage
that may occur to the Collateral. The Lender is hereby authorized to make proof
of loss if it is not made promptly by the Borrower. All proceeds of any
insurance on the Collateral shall be held by the Lender as a part of the
Collateral and at Lender's option be applied to repay the indebtedness hereunder
or to repair or restore property damage. If Lender agrees to use the funds to
repair or restore the property, such proceeds shall be paid out from time to
time upon order of the Borrower for the purpose of paying the reasonable cost of
repairing or restoring the property damaged. In the event of failure to provide
insurance as herein provided, the Lender may, at the Lender's option, provide
such insurance at the Borrower's expense.

            Section 11. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Unless applicable law provides
otherwise, all payments received by the Lender from the Borrower under the Note
and this Agreement shall be applied by the Lender in the following order of
priority: (i) interest payable on the Note in the manner provided therein; (ii)
principal of the Note in the manner provided therein; and (iii) any other sums
secured by this Agreement in such order as the Lender, at the Lender's option,
may determine.

            Section 12. PROTECTION OF LENDER'S SECURITY. If the Borrower fails
to perform the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, or if any
action or proceeding is commenced which affects the Collateral or title thereto
or the interest of the Lender therein, including, but not limited to,
insolvency, or arrangements or proceedings involving a bankrupt or decedent,
then the Lender, at the Lender's option, may make such appearance, disburse such
sums, and take such action as the Lender deems necessary, in its reasonable
discretion, to protect the Lender's interest, including but not limited to (i)
disbursement of attorneys' fees, (ii) entry upon the Borrower's property to make
repairs to the Collateral, and (iii) procurement of satisfactory insurance. Any
amounts disbursed by Lender pursuant to this Section, with interest thereon,
shall become additional indebtedness of the Borrower secured by this Agreement.
Unless the Borrower and the Lender agree to other terms of payment, such amounts
shall be immediately due and payable and shall bear interest from the date of
disbursement at the rate stated in the Note. Nothing contained in this Section
shall require the Lender to incur any expense or take any action.

            Section 13. INSPECTION. The Lender may make or cause to be made
reasonable entries upon and inspections of the Borrower's premises to inspect
the Collateral.

            Section 14. BORROWER AND LIEN NOT RELEASED. From time to time, the
Lender may, at the Lender's option, without giving notice to or obtaining the
consent of the Borrower, the Borrower's successors or assigns or of any
lienholder or guarantors, without liability on the Lender's part, and
notwithstanding the Borrower's breach of any covenant or agreement of the
Borrower in this Agreement, extend the time for payment of said indebtedness or
any part thereof, reduce the payments thereon, release anyone liable on any of
said indebtedness, accept a renewal a note or notes therefor, modify the terms
and the time of payment of said indebtedness and agree in writing with the
Borrower to modify the rate of interest or period of amortization of the Note or
change the amount of any installments payable thereunder. Any actions taken by
the Lender pursuant to the terms of this Section shall not affect the obligation
of the Borrower or the Borrower's successors or assigns to pay the sums advanced
under this Agreement and to observe the covenants of the Borrower contained
herein, and shall not affect the guaranty of any person, corporation,
partnership, or other entity for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby. The
Borrower shall pay the Lender a reasonable service charge, together with
attorneys' fees as may be incurred at the Lender's option for any such action if
taken at the Borrower's request.

            Section 15. FORBEARANCE BY LENDER NOT A WAIVER. Any forbearance by
the Lender in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise afforded by
applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right
or remedy. The acceptance by the Lender of payment of any sum loaned under this
Agreement after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of the
Lender's right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so
secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment.

            Section 16. UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SECURITY AGREEMENT. This
Agreement is intended to be a security agreement pursuant to the Uniform
Commercial Code for any of the items specified above as part of the Collateral
which, under applicable law, may be subject to a security interest pursuant to
the Uniform Commercial Code, and the Borrower hereby grants the Lender a
security interest in said items. The Borrower agrees that the Lender may file
any appropriate document in the appropriate index as a financing statement for
any of the items specified above as part of the Collateral. In addition, the
Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to the Lender, upon the Lender's request,
any financing statements, as well as extensions, renewals and amendments
thereof, and reproductions of this Agreement in such form as the Lender may
reasonably require to perfect a security interest with respect to said items.
The Borrower shall pay all costs of filing such financing statements and any
extensions, renewals, amendments, and releases thereof, and shall pay all
reasonable costs and expenses of any record searches for financing statements
the Lender may reasonably require. Upon the occurrence of an event of default,
each Secured Party shall have the remedies of a Lender under the Uniform
Commercial Code and, at the Secured Party's option, may also invoke the other
remedies provided in this Agreement as to such items. In exercising any of said
remedies, the Secured Parties may proceed against the items of real property and
any items of personal property specified above as part of the Collateral
separately or together and in any order whatsoever, without in any way affecting
the availability of the Secured Party's remedies under the Uniform Commercial
Code or of the other remedies provided in this Agreement.

            Section 17. ORDER OF PAYMENTS. Any and all amounts actually received
by the Lender in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, including
the proceeds of any collection, sale or other

<Page>

disposition of all or any part of the Collateral (collectively, the
"PROCEEDS"), shall, promptly upon receipt by the Lender, be applied:

            (a) first, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, or in
the event that such Proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the Secured
Obligations, to the Secured Obligations of the Secured Parties in the following
order of priority:

                  (i) to all interest (including default interest) owing to
the Secured Parties on Secured Obligations, such amounts to be allocated to
each Secured Party in accordance with its pro rata share of loans outstanding
to Borrower at such time; then

                  (ii) to principal amounts owing to the Secured Parties on
Secured Obligations, such amounts to be allocated to each Secured Party in
accordance with its pro rata share of loans outstanding to Borrower at such
time;

                  (iii ) any other fees or expenses incurred hereunder; and

            (b) second, to the Borrower or in the manner that a court of
competent jurisdiction shall direct.

            Section 18. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The Borrower shall be in default
under this Agreement when any of the following events or conditions occurs
(each an "EVENT OF DEFAULT"):

            (a)   The Borrower shall fail to pay all principal due under the
Note on or before the Maturity Date;

            (b) The Borrower shall fail to pay any of the Secured Obligations
(other than payment of principal due under the Note on or before the Maturity
Date) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and such failure to pay is not
remedied within five (5) Business Days of Lender's written notice to Borrower;

            (c) The Borrower fails to comply with any term, obligation,
covenant, or condition contained in this Agreement and such failure to comply is
not remedied within ten (10) Business Days of Lender's written notice to
Borrower;

            (d) Any warranty or representation made to the Lender by the
Borrower under this Agreement proves to have been materially false when made or
furnished;

            (e) If the Borrower voluntarily files a petition under the federal
Bankruptcy Act, as such Act may from time to time be amended, or under any
similar or successor federal statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
arrangements or reorganizations, or under any state bankruptcy or insolvency
act, or files an answer in an involuntary proceeding admitting insolvency or
inability to pay debts, or if the Borrower is adjudged a bankrupt, or if a
trustee or receiver is appointed for the Borrower's property, or if the
Collateral becomes subject to the jurisdiction of a federal bankruptcy court or
similar state court, or if the Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of
its creditors, or if there is an attachment, receivership, execution or other
judicial seizure, then the Lender may, at the Lender's option, declare all of
the sums secured by this Agreement to be immediately due and payable without
prior notice to the Borrower, and the Lender may invoke any remedies permitted
by this Agreement. Any attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred by the Lender
in connection with the Borrower's bankruptcy or any of the other events
described in this Section shall be additional indebtedness of the Borrower
secured by this Agreement; or

            (f) Any levy, seizure, attachment, lien, or encumbrance of or on the
Collateral which is not discharged by the Borrower within thirty (30) Business
Days or, any sale, transfer, or disposition of any interest in the Collateral,
other than in the ordinary course of business, without the written consent of
the Lender;

            (g)   Borrower defaults under any other written agreement between
Borrower and Lender.

   AS USED IN THIS AGREEMENT THE TERM "BUSINESS DAYS" MEANS DAYS OTHER THAN
SATURDAYS, SUNDAYS OR LEGAL HOLIDAYS UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

            Section 19. ACCELERATION.  At the option of the Lender, upon an
Event of Default, after any

<Page>

applicable notice period, all principal and any unpaid interest due hereunder
shall become immediately due and payable.

            Section 20. RIGHTS OF SECURED PARTIES.

            (a) Upon an Event of Default, the Secured Parties may require the
Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Parties
at the place to be designated by the Secured Parties which is reasonably
convenient to the parties. The Secured Parties may sell all or any part of the
Collateral as a whole or in parcels either by public auction, private sale, or
other method of disposition. The Secured Parties may bid at any public sale on
all or any portion of the Collateral. Unless the Collateral is perishable or
threatens to decline speedily in value or is of the type customarily sold on a
recognized market, the Secured Parties shall give the Borrower reasonable notice
of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private
sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, and notice given at
least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or other disposition shall be
conclusively presumed to be reasonable. A public sale in the following fashion
shall be conclusively presumed to be reasonable:

            (b) Notice shall be given at least ten (10) Business Days before the
date of sale by publication once in a newspaper of general circulation published
in the county in which the sale is to be held;

            (c) The sale shall be held in a county in which the Collateral or
any part is located or in a county in which the Borrower has a place of
business;

            (d)   Payment shall be in cash or by certified check immediately
following the close of the sale;

            (e)   The sale shall be by auction, but it need not be by a
professional auctioneer;

            (f)   The Collateral may be sold as is and without any
preparation for sale.

            (g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Secured
      Parties shall be under no obligation to offer to sell the Collateral. In
      the event the Secured Parties offer to sell the Collateral, the Secured
      Parties will be under no obligation to consummate a sale of the Collateral
      if, in their reasonable business judgment, none of the offers received by
      them reasonably approximates the fair value of the Collateral.

            (h) In the event the Secured Parties elect not to sell the
Collateral, the Secured Parties may elect to follow the procedures set forth in
the Uniform Commercial Code for retaining the Collateral in satisfaction of the
Borrower's obligation, subject to the Borrower's rights under such procedures.

            (i) In addition to the rights under this Agreement, in the event of
a default by the Borrower, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to the
appointment of a receiver for the Collateral as a matter of right whether or not
the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the outstanding principal amount of
the Note and any receiver appointed may serve without bond. Employment by the
Secured Parties shall not disqualify a person from serving as receiver.

            Section 21. EXPENSES. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out of
pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with this Agreement,
including but not limited to filing fees, recording taxes and reasonable
attorneys' fees actually incurred in enforcing this Agreement or collecting on
the Note, promptly upon demand of Lender.

            Section 22. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Each remedy provided in this
Agreement is distinct and cumulative to all other rights or remedies under this
Agreement or afforded by law or equity, and may be exercised concurrently,
independently, or successively, in any order whatsoever.

            Section 23. NOTICES. All notices and other communications hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, sent by
overnight courier or telecopied (with a confirmatory copy sent by overnight
courier) to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for
a party as shall be specified by like notice):

its sole and absolute discretion, and any such purported assignment without the
express prior written consent of the Lender party shall be void ab initio; and
the Lender may assign any or all of the rights, interests or obligations
hereunder to any party. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall
be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and

PT-I Long Distance, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the "BORROWER") and I-LINK
INCORPORATED, a Florida corporation (the "GUARANTOR"), and COUNSEL

be used to (i) purchase and operate certain of WorldxChange Communications,
Inc.'s business assets purchased by Borrower; (ii) pay fees and expenses related
to such asset acquisition and operation; and (iii) pay certain assumed

AGREEMENTS:

IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual promises and agreements herein contained, Lender,
Borrower and Guarantor agree as follows:

ARTICLE ONE

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE LOAN

      Section 1.1 THE LOAN. Lender agrees, upon the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth, to make a loan to Borrower in an aggregate principal
amount of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) (the "LOAN").

      Section 1.2 THE NOTE. The Loan shall be evidenced by and subject to the
terms of a promissory note, dated June 4, 2001, substantially in the form set
forth as EXHIBIT 1.2 hereto (as amended, renewed, restated, increased,
consolidated or substituted from time to time, the "NOTE"), payable to the order
of Lender.

      Section 1.3 INTEREST. The Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal
amount thereof at a rate PER ANNUM at all times equal to ten percent (10%).
Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual
number of days elapsed during the period for which such interest is payable.
Interest shall begin to accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan
on the date of disbursement of all or a portion of the Loan. Accrued interest
shall be paid quarterly in arrears and in cash on last business day of each
quarter until all principal and interest hereunder is paid in full at the
repayment or maturity of the Loan. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
(as defined herein), the entire outstanding principal amount of the Loan and (to
the extent permitted by law) unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due
hereunder shall bear interest, from the date of occurrence of such Event of
Default until the earlier of the date the Loan is paid in full and the date on
which such Event of Default is cured or waived in writing, at an interest rate
equal of twelve percent (12%) per annum, which shall be payable upon demand.
Lender may waive in writing Borrower's obligation to make one or more cash
interest payments in which case interest shall continue to accrue. Lender hereby
waives Borrower's obligation to make the cash interest payment due June 30,
2001.

      Section 1.4 PRINCIPAL REPAYMENT. The outstanding principal balance of the
Loan plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable on
June 4, 2002 (the "MATURITY DATE").

      Section 1.5 PREPAYMENTS.

Section 1.5.1 VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. By written notice to Lender no later than
12:00 noon, New York time on the business day prior to such prepayment, Borrower
may, at its option, prepay the Loan in whole at any time or in part from time to
time without penalty or premium.

Section 1.5.2 MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.

RECEIVABLE LENDING OR DEBT ISSUANCE. Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment
of the Loan in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the cash
proceeds, net of any directly related reasonable fees and expenses incurred,
from: (a) the initial purchase of Borrower's accounts receivable pursuant to a
third-party financing arrangement ("A/R FINANCING"); or (b) future debt issuance
of Borrower. Such prepayment(s) shall be made

<Page>

concurrently with the funding of such transaction(s).

PROCEEDS OF ASSET SALES. Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Loan
in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the cash proceeds in excess
of one million dollars ($1,000,000) of any sale(s) by Borrower of any of
Borrower's material assets, net of any reasonable costs directly incurred in
connection with such sale(s) and any taxes payable in connection with such
sale(s). Together with any prepayment required by this Section, Borrower shall
deliver to Lender a certificate executed by Borrower's chief financial officer
setting forth the calculation of the net cash proceeds of such sale(s),
including a calculation of the taxes payable in respect of such sale(s). Such
prepayment(s) shall be made concurrently with the funding of such sales(s).

If Guarantor issues or sells any shares of its capital stock or other equity
interests or securities convertible into or exercisable for any shares of its
capital stock or other equity interests, it shall, within five (5) days of such
sale or issuance, make a mandatory prepayment of the Loan in an amount equal to
fifty percent (50%) of the cash proceeds thereof, net of: (a) any reasonable
costs directly incurred in connection with such sale or issuance; and (b)
proceeds used by Guarantor to acquire businesses or business assets; and (c)
proceeds used to fund any Lender approved expanded business plan, PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no such prepayment shall be required in connection with any such
issuance or sale: (a) in connection with any acquisition (including by way of
merger or consolidation or share exchange) by Borrower of the stock or assets of
another person or entity in a transaction pursuant to which the purchase price
is paid in whole or in part by the delivery of capital stock of Borrower to the
seller; or (b) to officers, directors or employees of Guarantor or any of its
subsidiaries pursuant to stock option or other benefit plans.

      Section 1.6 APPLICATION OF PREPAYMENTS. All voluntary and mandatory
prepayments of the Loan shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to
the principal outstanding under the Loan.

      Section 1.7 PAYMENT ON NON-BUSINESS DAYS. Whenever any payment to be made
hereunder or under the Note shall be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public
holiday, such payment may be made on the next succeeding business day, and such
extension of time in such case shall be included in the computation of interest
hereunder and under the Note.

      Section 1.8 TAXES. All sums payable by Borrower hereunder or under the

in full, free of any deductions or withholdings for any and all present and
future taxes, levies, imposts, stamps, duties, fees, assessments, deductions,
withholdings, and other governmental charges and all liabilities with respect
thereto. If Borrower is prohibited by law from making payments hereunder or
under the Note free of such deductions or withholdings, then Borrower shall pay
such additional amount as may be necessary in order that the actual amount
received by Lender after such deduction or withholding shall equal the full
amount stated to be payable hereunder or under the Note.

Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral.

      Section 4.6 PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST. From the date hereof,
Borrower and Guarantor agree to execute and file financing statements, and do
whatever may be necessary under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code in the
state where Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral is located, to
perfect and continue the Lender's interest in the Borrower's Collateral and
Guarantor's Collateral, all at the Borrower's expense.

      Section 4.7 TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS. The Borrower and Guarantor will pay or
cause to be paid promptly when due all taxes and assessments on the Borrower's

      Section 4.8 INSURANCE. The Borrower and Guarantor shall have and maintain,
or cause to be maintained, insurance at all times with respect to all Borrower's
Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral except accounts receivable, against such
risks as the Lender may reasonably require, in such form, for such periods, and
written by such companies as may be satisfactory to the Lender. All policies of
insurance shall have endorsed a loss payable clause acceptable to the Lender
and/or such other endorsements as the Lender may from time to time request, and
the Borrower and Guarantor will promptly provide the Lender with the original
policies or certificates of such insurance. The Borrower and Guarantor shall
promptly notify the Lender of any loss or damage that may occur to the
Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral. The Lender is hereby
authorized to make proof of loss if it is not made promptly by the Borrower or
the Guarantor. All proceeds of any insurance on the Borrower's Collateral and
Guarantor's Collateral shall be held by the Lender as a part of the Borrower's
Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral and at Lender's option be applied to repay
the indebtedness hereunder or to repair or restore property damage. If Lender
agrees to use the funds to repair or restore the property, such proceeds shall
be paid out from time to time upon order of the Borrower or the Guarantor for
the purpose of paying the reasonable cost of repairing or restoring the property
damaged. In the event of failure to provide insurance as herein provided, the
Lender may, at the Lender's option, provide such insurance at the Borrower's or
Guarantor's expense.

      Section 4.9 PROTECTION OF LENDER'S SECURITY. If the Borrower or Guarantor
fail to perform any of their respective covenants and agreements contained or
incorporated in this Agreement, or if any action or proceeding is commenced
which affects the Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral or title
thereto or the interest of the Lender therein, including, but not limited to
insolvency, or arrangements or proceedings involving a bankrupt or decedent,
then the Lender, at the Lender's option, may make such appearance, disburse such
sums, and take such action as the Lender deems necessary, in its sole
discretion, to protect the Lender's interest, including but not limited to (i)
disbursement of attorneys' fees, (ii) entry upon the Borrower's or Guarantor's
property to make repairs to the Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral,
and (iii) procurement of satisfactory insurance. Any amounts disbursed by Lender
pursuant to this Section, with interest thereon, shall become additional
indebtedness of the Borrower secured by this Agreement. Unless the Borrower, the
Guarantor and the Lender agree to other terms of payment, such amounts shall be
immediately due and payable and shall bear interest from the date of
disbursement at the rate stated in the Note. Nothing contained in this Section
shall require the Lender to incur any expense or take any action.

      Section 4.10 INSPECTION. The Lender may make or cause to be made
reasonable entries upon and inspections of the Borrower's or Guarantor's
premises to inspect the Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral.

      Section 4.11 BORROWER, GUARANTOR AND LIEN NOT RELEASED. From time to time,
the Lender may, at the

<Page>

Lender's option, without giving notice to or obtaining the consent of the
Borrower, the Borrower's successors or assigns or of any other lienholder or
Guarantor, without liability on the Lender's part, and notwithstanding the
Borrower's breach of any covenant or agreement of the Borrower in this
Agreement, extend the time for payment of said indebtedness or any part
thereof, reduce the payments thereon, release anyone liable on any of said
indebtedness, accept a renewal note or notes therefor, modify the terms and
the time of payment of said indebtedness, release from the lien of this
Agreement any part of the Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral,
take or release other or additional security, reconvey any part of the
Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral, consent to any map or plan
of the Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral, consent to the
granting of any easement, join in any extension or subordination agreement,
and agree in writing with the Borrower to modify the rate of interest or
period of amortization of the Note or change the amount of any installments
payable thereunder. Any actions taken by the Lender pursuant to the terms of
this Section shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower or the
Borrower's successors or assigns or Guarantor to pay the sums secured by this
Agreement and to observe the covenants of the Borrower and Guarantor
contained herein, shall not affect the guaranty of Guarantor or any person,
corporation, partnership, or other entity for payment of the indebtedness
secured hereby, and shall not affect the lien or priority of lien hereof on
the Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's Collateral. The Borrower shall pay
the Lender a reasonable service charge, together with attorneys' fees as may
be incurred at the Lender's option for any such action if taken at the
Borrower's request.

      Section 4.12 FORBEARANCE BY LENDER NOT A WAIVER. Any forbearance by the
Lender in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise afforded by
applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right
or remedy. The acceptance by the Lender of payment of any sum secured by this
Agreement after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of the
Lender's right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so
secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The
procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes, rents or other liens or
charges by the Lender shall not be a waiver of the Lender's right to accelerate
the maturity of the indebtedness secured by this Agreement, nor shall the
Lender's receipt of any awards, proceeds or damages as provided in this
Agreement operate to cure or waive the Borrower's or Guarantor's default in
payment of sums secured by this Agreement.

      Section 4.13 UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Agreement is
intended to be a security agreement pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code for
any of the items specified above as part of the Borrower's Collateral and
Guarantor's Collateral which, under applicable law, may be subject to a security
interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, and the Borrower and Guarantor
each hereby grant the Lender a security interest in said items. The Borrower and
Guarantor each agree that the Lender may file any appropriate document in the
appropriate index as a financing statement for any of the items specified above
as part of the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral. In addition,
the Borrower and Guarantor each agree to execute and deliver to the Lender, upon
the Lender's request, any financing statements, as well as extensions, renewals
and amendments thereof, and reproductions of this Agreement in such form as the
Lender may reasonably require to perfect a security interest with respect to
said items. The Borrower shall pay all costs of filing such financing statements
and any extensions, renewals, amendments, and releases thereof, and shall pay
all reasonable costs and expenses of any record searches for financing
statements the Lender may reasonably require. The Borrower or Guarantor shall
not create or suffer to be created pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code any
other security interest in the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral,
other than the security interests of the Secured Parties, including replacements
and additions thereto. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Secured
Party shall have the remedies of a Lender under the Uniform Commercial Code and,
at the Secured Party's option, may also invoke the other remedies provided in
this Agreement as to such items. In exercising any of said remedies, the Secured
Parties may proceed against the items of real property and any items of personal
property specified above as part of the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's
Collateral separately or together and in any order whatsoever, without in any
way affecting the availability of the Secured Party's remedies under the Uniform
Commercial Code or of the other remedies provided in this Agreement.

      Section 9.3 RIGHTS OF SECURED PARTIES.

      (a) Upon an Event of Default, the Secured Parties may require the Borrower
and Guarantor to assemble the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral
and make it available to the Secured Parties at the place to be designated by
the Secured Parties which is reasonably convenient to the parties. The Secured
Parties may sell all or any part of the Borrower's Collateral or Guarantor's
Collateral as a whole or in parcels either by public auction, private sale, or
other method of disposition. The Secured Parties may bid at any public sale on
all or any portion of the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral.
Unless the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral is perishable or
threatens to decline speedily in value or is of the type customarily sold on a
recognized market, the Secured Parties shall give the Borrower reasonable notice
of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private
sale or other disposition of the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's
Collateral is to be made, and notice given at least 10 days before the time of
the sale or other disposition shall be conclusively presumed to be reasonable. A
public sale in the following fashion shall be conclusively presumed to be
reasonable:

      (b) Notice shall be given at least 10 days before the date of sale by
publication once in a newspaper of general circulation published in the county
in which the sale is to be held;

      (c) The sale shall be held in a county in which the Borrower's Collateral
and Guarantor's Collateral or any part is located or in a county in which the
Borrower or Guarantor has a place of business;

      (d) Payment shall be in cash or by certified check immediately
following the close of the sale;

      (e) The sale shall be by auction, but it need not be by a
professional auctioneer;

      (f) The Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral may be
sold as is and without any preparation for sale.

      (g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Secured
Parties shall be under no obligation to offer to sell the Borrower's
Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral. In the event the Secured Parties offer
to sell the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral, the Secured
Parties will be under no obligation to consummate a sale of the Borrower's
Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral if, in their reasonable business
judgment, none of the offers received by them reasonably approximates the
fair value of the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral.

      (h) In the event the Secured Parties elect not to sell the Borrower's
Collateral and Guarantor's

<Page>

Collateral, the Secured Parties may elect to follow the procedures set forth
in the Uniform Commercial Code for retaining the Borrower's Collateral and
Guarantor's Collateral in satisfaction of the Borrower's obligation, subject
to the Borrower's or Guarantor's rights under such procedures.

      (i) In addition to the rights under this Agreement, in the event of a
default by the Borrower, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to the
appointment of a receiver for the Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's
Collateral as a matter of right whether or not the apparent value of the
Borrower's Collateral and Guarantor's Collateral exceeds the outstanding
principal amount of the Notes and any receiver appointed may serve without bond.
Employment by the Secured Parties shall not disqualify a person from serving as
receiver.

JURY TRIAL WAIVER. EACH OF LENDER, BORROWER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE

LENDER/BORROWER/GUARANTOR RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THIS WAIVER IS

      Section 10.13 MAXIMUM INTEREST. Lender and Borrower intend that this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents conform to all applicable usury laws.
Accordingly, no provisions of the Loan Documents shall require the payment or
permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law ("MAXIMUM RATE"), or obligate Borrower to pay any taxes,
assessments, charges, insurance premiums or other amounts which are held to
constitute interest to the extent that such payments, when added to the other
obligations under the Loan Documents, would be held to constitute contracting
for, or the payment by Borrower of, interest at a rate greater than the Maximum
Rate. Lender and Borrower further agree that:

Section 10.13.1 if any excess of interest in such respect is herein or in any
such other instrument provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided
for herein or in any such instrument, the provisions of this subsection shall
govern, and neither Borrower nor its successors or assigns shall be obligated to
pay the amount of such interest to the extent it is in excess of the Maximum
Rate;

Section 10.13.2 if at any time the amount of interest under any of the Loan
Documents for a calendar year exceeds the Maximum Rate had the Maximum Rate at
all times been in effect, the interest chargeable under any such Loan Document
shall be limited to the amount of interest that could have been charged if the
Maximum Rate had at all times been in effect, but any subsequent reductions in
the interest due shall not reduce the rate of interest chargeable under any such
Loan Document below the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest accrued
under any such Loan Document equals the amount of interest that would have
accrued if the interest provided for in any such Loan Document had at all times
been in effect and collectible;

Section 10.13.3 if the maturity of any Loan Document is accelerated for any
reason, or in the event of any prepayment by Borrower, or in any other event,
earned interest may never include more than the Maximum Rate, computed from the
date of disbursement of the funds evidenced by such Loan Document until payment,
and any interest otherwise payable under such Loan Document that is in excess of
the Maximum Rate shall be canceled automatically as of such acceleration or such
other event and (if theretofore paid) shall be credited against principal;

Section 10.13.4 if it should be held that any interest payable or chargeable
under any Loan Document is in excess of the Maximum Rate, the interest payable
or chargeable under such Loan Document shall be reduced to the maximum amount
permitted by applicable federal or state law, whichever shall permit the higher
lawful interest, as construed by courts having jurisdiction thereof; and

Section 10.13.5 the spreading, prorating and amortizing of interest over the
Maturity Date of the Loan Documents shall be allowed to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law.

funding of the Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder:

     (a) warrants to purchase five million (5,000,000) shares of Common Stock
         of the Company at an Exercise Price (defined herein) of $0.60 per
         share, subject to adjustment as provided elsewhere herein (the "TRANCHE
         1 WARRANTS"); and

     (b) warrants to purchase five million (5,000,000) shares of Common Stock
         of the Company at an Exercise Price (defined herein) of $0.60 per
         share, subject to adjustment and cancellation as provided elsewhere
         herein (the "TRANCHE 2 WARRANTS"); and

     (c) warrants to purchase five million (5,000,000) shares of Common Stock
         of the Company at an Exercise Price (defined herein) of $0.60 per
         share, subject to adjustment and cancellation as provided elsewhere

<Page>

         herein (the "TRANCHE 3 WARRANTS").

            The Warrants shall be evidenced by Warrant Certificates and each
Warrant Certificate shall represent the right, subject to the provisions
contained herein, to purchase from the Company (and the Company shall issue and
sell to the registered holder of such Warrants) the number of shares of Common
Stock (as may be adjusted pursuant to Article 7 hereof) issuable to the
Warrantholder upon exercise of such Warrants, at the price specified herein.

            SECTION 2.2 FORM OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES. The Warrant Certificates
evidencing the Warrants shall be in registered form only and shall be
substantially in the form set forth in EXHIBIT A attached hereto, shall be dated
the date on which signed by the Company and may have such letters, numbers or
other marks of identification or designation printed, lithographed, engraved or
otherwise affixed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to
comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto.

            SECTION 2.3 EXECUTION OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES. Warrant Certificates
shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the president, any vice president
or the treasurer of the Company and signed by the secretary or any assistant
secretary of the Company and have affixed thereon the seal of the Company. Each
such signature and seal may be manual or facsimile.

            In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the
Warrant Certificates shall cease to be such officer before countersignature and
delivery by the Company, such Warrant Certificates, nevertheless, may be
countersigned, issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though
such person had not ceased to be such officer; and any Warrant Certificate may
be signed on behalf of the Company by any person who, at the actual date of the
execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company
to sign such Warrant Certificate, although at the date of the execution of this
Agreement such person was not such an officer of the Company. Upon
countersignature on behalf of the Company and delivery, the Warrant Certificate
shall be valid and binding upon the Company, and the Warrantholder thereof shall
be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement.

                                  REGISTRATION

      SECTION 3.1 REGISTRATION. THE COMPANY SHALL NUMBER AND REGISTER THE
WARRANT CERTIFICATES IN A REGISTER (THE "WARRANT REGISTER") MAINTAINED AT 13751

BY THE COMPANY (OR SUCH OTHER LOCATION AS THE COMPANY MAY ESTABLISH AFTER GIVING
NOTICE THEREOF TO THE WARRANTHOLDERS). THE COMPANY SHALL KEEP COPIES OF THIS
AGREEMENT AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION BY THE WARRANTHOLDERS DURING NORMAL BUSINESS
HOURS AT THE OFFICE.


ARTICLE IV

          TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES

            SECTION 4.1 WARRANT TRANSFER. The Warrants granted hereunder shall
not be pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written
consent of the Company, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Upon exercise,
in whole or in part, of such pledged, assigned of transferred Warrants,
certificates representing the Warrant Securities (defined below) shall bear a
legend substantially similar to the legend set forth in Section 4.3

            SECTION 4.2 REGISTRATION OF TRANSFERS. Subject to the provisions of
this Agreement, the Company shall from time to time register the transfer of any
outstanding Warrant Certificate on the Warrant Register maintained at the
Office, upon surrender thereof accompanied by a written instrument or
instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, duly
endorsed by the registered holder thereof or by such Warrantholder's appointed
legal representative or attorney-in-fact, or accompanied by proper evidence of
succession, assignment or authority to transfer. Each such written instrument or
instruments of transfer or proper evidence of succession, assignment or
authority to transfer shall be accompanied by an unqualified written opinion

<Page>

of legal counsel who shall be, and whose legal opinion shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company, to the effect that the
proposed transfer of the Warrants may be effected without registration under the
Securities Act and any applicable state law. In all cases of transfer by an
attorney, the original power of attorney, duly approved, or an official copy
thereof, duly certified, shall be deposited and remain with the Company. Upon
any such registration or transfer in such name or names as may be directed in
writing by the Warrantholder, the Company shall execute and deliver (or cause to
be delivered) a new Warrant Certificate(s) without charge to such Warrantholder,
or to the Person or Persons entitled to receive the same, and the surrendered
Warrant Certificate shall be canceled by the Company.

            SECTION 4.3 REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. The
Warrants, the Warrant Shares and any of the other securities issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act. Upon
exercise, in part or in whole, of the Warrants, certificates representing the
Common Stock and any of the other securities issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants (collectively, the "WARRANT SECURITIES") shall bear the following
legend:

            The securities represented by this certificate have not been
            registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Act"), and
            may not be offered or sold except pursuant to (i) an effective
            registration statement under the Act, (ii) to the extent applicable,
            Rule 144 under the Act (or any similar rule under such Act relating
            to the disposition of securities), or (iii) an opinion of counsel,
            if such opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the
            issuer, that an exemption from registration under such Act is
            available.

            SECTION 4.4 EXCHANGES OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES. Each Warrant
Certificate may be exchanged at the option of the Warrantholder without charge
to such Warrantholder when surrendered to the Company at the Office properly
endorsed in the manner described in Section 4.2 hereof for another Warrant
Certificate(s) of like tenor and representing in the aggregate a like number of
shares of Common Stock, as may be adjusted pursuant to Article 7 hereof.
Thereupon, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Person(s) entitled
thereto a new Warrant Certificate(s) as so requested. Warrant Certificates
surrendered for exchange shall be canceled by the Company.

            SECTION 4.5 MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANT CERTIFICATES. In the event
that any Warrant Certificate shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the
Company shall execute and deliver in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and
substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new
Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing Warrants for a like amount of
Common Stock, but only, in case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant
Certificate, upon receipt of (i) evidence satisfactory to the Company of such
loss, theft or destruction and the absence of actual notice to the Company that
such Warrant Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser or holder in
due course, and (ii) an indemnity bond in form and substance and with surety
satisfactory to the Company. Every substitute Warrant Certificate executed and
delivered pursuant to this Section 4.5 in lieu of any lost, stolen or destroyed
Warrant Certificate shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the
Company, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificate shall
be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits of
(but shall be subject to all the limitations of rights set forth in) this
Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Warrant
Certificates duly executed and delivered hereunder. The provisions of this
Section 4.5 are exclusive with respect to the replacement of mutilated, lost,
stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificates.


ARTICLE V

            EXERCISE OF WARRANTS; EXERCISE PRICE; EXERCISE PERIOD

            SECTION 5.1 EXERCISE OF WARRANTS. Subject to the provisions of this
Agreement, each Warrantholder shall have the right to purchase from the Company
the number of shares of Common Stock that the Warrantholder may at the time be
entitled to purchase on exercise of the Warrants and payment of the Exercise
Price (as defined below) for such Common Stock.

            SECTION 5.2 MECHANICS OF EXERCISE.

<Page>

            (a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Warrants may be
exercised by the Warrantholder in whole or in part upon surrender at the Office
to the Company of the Warrant Certificate(s) evidencing the Warrants, together
with the form of election to purchase (the "ELECTION TO PURCHASE"), in the form
set forth as EXHIBIT B hereto, duly completed and signed by such Warrantholder
or by such Warrantholder's appointed legal representative or attorney-in-fact
and upon payment in full of the Exercise Price for each Warrant exercised.
Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be made by immediately available
funds.

        (b) Upon due exercise of the Warrants and surrender of the Warrant
Certificate, duly completed and signed, and payment of the Exercise Price as
aforesaid, the Company shall cause to be issued to or upon the written order of
the Warrantholder and in such name or names as the Warrantholder may designate
in the Election to Purchase, the Common Stock so purchased. If all of the items
referred to in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph are received by the
Company at or prior to 1:00 p.m., Salt Lake City time, on a Business Day, the
exercise of the Warrants to which such items relate will be effective on such
Business Day. If all of such items are received after 1:00 p.m., Salt Lake City
time, on a Business Day, the exercise of the Warrants to which such items relate
will be effective on the next Business Day.

        (c) The number and kind of Common Stock for which Warrants may be
exercised shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in
Article 7 hereof.

        (d) The Warrants shall be exercisable as provided herein at the
election of the Warrantholder in whole or in part. In the event that the holder
of a Warrant Certificate shall exercise Warrants with respect to fewer than all
the Common Stock evidenced thereby, a new Warrant Certificate(s) evidencing the
remaining unexercised Warrants shall be issued to such Warrantholder, and the
Company is hereby irrevocably authorized to execute and deliver the required new
Warrant Certificate(s) pursuant to provisions of Article 2 and Article 3 of this
Agreement.

        (e) All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall
be canceled and disposed of by the Company.

            SECTION 5.3 EXERCISE PRICE. The price at which the Warrants shall be
exercisable in exchange for Common Stock shall initially be $0.60 per share (the
"EXERCISE PRICE"), subject to adjustment as provided in Article 7 herein.

            SECTION 5.4 EXERCISE PERIODS.  The exercise periods for the
Warrants are as follows:

      (a)   The right to exercise the Tranche 1 Warrants shall commence on the
            Closing Date (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and terminate on
            June 4, 2003 (the "EXPIRATION DATE") (the "TRANCHE 1 EXERCISE
            PERIOD").

      (b)   The Tranche 2 Warrants shall not become exercisable unless and until
            Borrower fails to repay the Note in full on or before the three (3)
            month anniversary of the Closing Date, in which case the right to
            exercise the Tranche 2 Warrants shall commence on the three (3)
            month anniversary of the Closing Date and terminate on the
            Expiration Date (the "TRANCHE 2 EXERCISE PERIOD").

      (c)   The Tranche 3 Warrants shall not become exercisable unless and until
            Borrower fails to repay the Note in full on or before the six (6)
            month anniversary of the Closing Date, in which case the right to
            exercise the Tranche 2 Warrants shall commence on the six (6) month
            anniversary of the Closing Date and terminate on the Expiration Date
            (the "TRANCHE 3 EXERCISE PERIOD").

      The Company shall record the exercise period of each Warrant in the
      Warrant Register.

            SECTION 5.5 CASHLESS EXERCISE.

        (a) At any time during the applicable exercise period of any Warrant,
the Warrantholder may, at its option, exchange such Warrants, in whole or in
part (a "WARRANT EXCHANGE"), into the number of fully paid and non-assessable
shares of Common Stock determined in accordance with this Section 5.5, by
surrendering the Warrant Certificate relating to such Warrants at the Office,
accompanied by a notice stating such Warrantholder's intent to effect such
exchange, the number of shares of Common Stock to be exchanged and the date on
which the Warrantholder requests that such Warrant Exchange occur (the "NOTICE
OF EXCHANGE"). The Warrant Exchange shall take place on the

<Page>

date specified in the Notice of Exchange, or, if later, the date the Notice of
Exchange is received by the Company (the "EXCHANGE DATE"). Certificates for
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Warrant Exchange and, if applicable,
a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor evidencing the balance of the shares of
Common Stock remaining subject to the Warrantholder's Warrant Certificate,
shall be issued as of the Exchange Date and delivered to the Warrantholder
within three (3) days following the Exchange Date. In connection with any
Warrant Exchange, the Warrantholder's Warrant Certificate shall represent the
right to subscribe for and acquire the number of shares of Common Stock
(rounded to the next highest integer) equal to (A) the number of shares of
Common Stock specified by the Warrantholder in its Notice of Exchange (the
"TOTAL SHARE NUMBER") multiplied by (B) the fraction obtained by dividing (i)
the Market Price (defined herein) of a share of Common Stock minus the then
applicable Exercise Price per share; by (ii) the Market Price (defined herein)
of a share of Common Stock.

        (b) As used in this Section 5.5, the phrase "MARKET PRICE" at any date
will be deemed to be the last reported sale price, or, in case no such reported
sale takes place on such day, the average of the last reported sale prices for
the last three (3) trading days, in either case as officially reported by the
stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading or by
The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. ("NASDAQ"), or, if the Common Stock is not listed
or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quoted by Nasdaq ,
the average closing bid price as furnished by the OTC Bulletin Board ("OTCBB")
or similar organization if the OTCBB is not reporting such information, or if
the Common Stock is not quoted by OTCBB or a similar organization, at such price
as the Board of Directors in good faith, shall reasonably determine to be market
value, in its sole discretion.

            SECTION 5.6 ELIMINATION OF FRACTIONAL INTEREST. The Company shall
not be required to issue certificates representing fraction of shares of Common
Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants, nor shall it be required to issue scrip
or pay cash in lieu of fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties
that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction down
to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock or other securities,
properties or rights.

ARTICLE VI

                           RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK

            SECTION 6.1 RESERVATION. The Company shall at all times keep
reserved, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized Common Stock, or
other securities of the Company issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, a
number of shares of Common Stock, or such other securities, sufficient to
provide for the exercise of the right of purchase represented by all outstanding
and unexpired Warrants.

            SECTION 6.2 COVENANT. The Company covenants that any shares of
Common Stock will, upon issuance, be validly issued and upon payment of the
exercise price therefor, fully paid and free from all taxes payable by the
Company, liens, charges and security interests (except any liens, charges or
security interests created or suffered to be created by any of the
Warrantholders), and will not be subject to any restrictions on voting or
transfer thereof that are created by the Company, except for such restrictions
on transfer under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws.


ARTICLE VII

                ADJUSTMENTS AFFECTING THE EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

            SECTION 7.1 SPECIAL DEFINITIONS.  For purposes of this Article 7,
the following definition shall applies:

            "ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE" shall mean the date on which a Warrant was
first issued.

            SECTION 7.2 ADJUSTMENT FOR STOCK SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. If the
Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date
for the Warrants, effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrant shall be
proportionately increased. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to
time after the Original Issue Date for the Warrants, combine the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of such Warrant shall be proportionately decreased and the Exercise
Price shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 7.2
shall become effective at the close of business on the date the

<Page>

subdivision or combination becomes effective.

            SECTION 7.3 ADJUSTMENT FOR RECLASSIFICATION, EXCHANGE, OR
SUBSTITUTION. If the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants
shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or
classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or
otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend
provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of
assets provided for below), then and in each such event the holder of the
Warrants shall have the right thereafter to convert each such share Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants into the kind and amount of shares of
stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common
Stock for which such Warrants might have been exercised immediately prior to
such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further
adjustment as provided herein.

            SECTION 7.4 ADJUSTMENT FOR MERGER OR REORGANIZATION. In case of any
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Company, each
Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the kind and amount of shares of
stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares
of Common Stock of the Company deliverable upon exercise of such Warrant would
have been entitled upon such consolidation or merger; and, in such case,
appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors)
shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Article 7 set forth
with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holders of the
Warrants, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 7 shall
thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any
shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of
the Warrants.

            SECTION 7.5 FORM OF WARRANT CERTIFICATE. Irrespective of any
adjustments in the Exercise Price or the kind of Common Stock purchasable upon
the exercise of the Warrants, Warrant Certificates evidencing such Warrants
theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number and
kind of Common Stock as are stated in the Warrant Certificates initially
issuable pursuant to this Agreement.

            SECTION 7.6 NO IMPAIRMENT. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company shall take all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise of the
Warrants from time to time outstanding will, when issued, be fully paid and
non-assessable. In addition, without limiting the generality of Section 6.1, the
Company shall take all such action as shall be necessary so that the total
number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company then
authorized by the articles of incorporation of the Company as then in effect and
available for the purpose of issuance upon such exercise shall exceed the total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all of the
outstanding Warrants. The Company will not, by amendment of its articles of
incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 7 and in
the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
protect the rights of the Warrantholders against impairment.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                            NOTICES TO WARRANTHOLDERS

            SECTION 8.1 NOTICES TO WARRANTHOLDERS.

        (a) Notices to Warrantholders shall be mailed to such holders at the
addresses of such holders as they appear in the Warrant Register. Any such
notice shall be sufficiently given if sent by first-class certified or
registered mail, postage prepaid, facsimile or overnight courier.

            (b) In the event (i) of any consolidation or merger or binding
exchange of interests to which the Company is a party and for which approval of
the Holder or any holders of equity interests of the Company is required, or of
the conveyance or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company,
or of any change of the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon exercise
of the Warrants (other than the rights offering made pursuant to an agreement
between the Holder and the Company for which no notice shall be required); or
(ii) the Company shall make any distribution in respect of the Common Stock; or
(iii) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of
the Company; then the Company shall send to each Warrantholder at least thirty
(30) days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a written notice
stating (A)

<Page>

the date for the determination of the holders of Common Stock (or other
securities issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) entitled to receive any
such distribution, (B) the initial expiration date set forth in any offer for
exchange of interests, or (C) the date on which any such consolidation, merger,
exchange of interests, conveyance, transfer, reclassification, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or consummated, and
the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of Common Stock (or
other securities issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants) shall be entitled
to exchange such Common Stock for securities or other property, if any,
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, exchange of
interests, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

            SECTION 8.2 NOTICES TO COMPANY. Any notice or demand authorized by

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

            SECTION 9.1 ARBITRATION.

            (a) To the fullest extent not prohibited by law, any controversy,
claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the
determination of the scope or applicability of this Agreement to arbitrate,
shall be settled by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the rules
then in effect of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The decision of
the arbitrators shall be final and binding; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that where a
remedy for breach is prescribed hereunder or limitations on remedies are
prescribed, the arbitrators shall be bound by such restrictions, and judgment
upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction thereof.

            (b) In the event of any controversy, claim or dispute that is
subject to arbitration under this Section 9.1, any party thereto may commence
arbitration hereunder by delivering notice to the other party or parties
thereto. Within five business days of delivery of a list of qualified potential
arbitrators from AAA, such parties shall attempt to agree on one arbitrator;
PROVIDED that if such parties cannot agree on one arbitrator within such time
period, each party to the controversy, claim or dispute shall within five
business days thereafter appoint one arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so
appointed shall within five business days of their appointment mutually agree
upon and appoint one additional arbitrator (or, if such arbitrators cannot agree
on an additional arbitrator, the additional arbitrator shall be appointed by the
AAA as provided under its rules); PROVIDED that persons eligible to be selected
as arbitrators shall be limited to attorneys at law who (i) are on the AAA's
Large, Complex Case Panel and

<Page>

(ii) have practiced law for at least fifteen years as an attorney specializing
in either general commercial litigation or general corporate and commercial
matters.

            (c) The arbitration hearing shall commence no later than thirty (30)
business days after the completion of the selection of the arbitrators or at
such other time as the parties shall reasonably agree. Consistent with the
intent of the parties hereto that the arbitration be conducted as expeditiously
as possible, the parties agree that (i) discovery shall be limited to the
production of such documents and the taking of such depositions as the
arbitrator(s) determine are reasonably necessary to the resolution of the
controversy, claim or dispute and (ii) the arbitrator(s) shall limit the
presentation of evidence by each side in such arbitration to not more than ten
(10) full days (or the equivalent thereof) or such shorter period as the
arbitrator(s) shall determine to be necessary in order to resolve the
controversy, claim or dispute. The arbitrator(s) shall be instructed to render a
decision within thirty (30) calendar days of the close of the arbitration
hearing.

            (d) The arbitrators shall base their decision on the terms of this
Agreement and the law of the State of Florida, regardless of the law that might
be applicable under conflicts of law principles, and shall render their decision
in writing. Each party agrees to cooperate fully with the arbitrator(s) to
resolve any controversy, claim or dispute. The arbitrator(s) shall not be
empowered to award punitive damages or damages in excess of actual damages. The
venue for all arbitration proceedings shall be Salt Lake City, Utah.

            SECTION 9.2 PAYMENT OF TAXES. The Company covenants and agrees that
it will pay when due and payable all documentary, stamp and other taxes
attributable to the issuance or delivery of the Warrant Certificates or of the
Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of Warrants; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the
Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes that may be payable in
respect of any transfer involving the issue of any Warrant Certificate(s) or any
certificate(s) for Common Stock in a name other than that of the Warrantholder
of such exercised Warrant Certificate(s), and the Company shall not be required
to issue or deliver such Warrant Certificate(s) or any such certificates unless
or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid
to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the
satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

            SECTION 9.3 AMENDMENT.

            (a) The Company may modify this Agreement and the terms of the
Warrants only with the consent of the Warrantholders representing at least a
majority of the Common Stock for the purpose of adding any provision to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or
modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the outstanding Warrants.

            (b) Any such modification or amendment will be conclusive and
binding on all present and future holders of Warrant Certificates whether or not
they have consented to such modification or amendment or waiver and whether or

                                       No.

      This LEASE AGREEMENT, is effective on June 2, 2001 between
TELECOMMUNICATIONS FINANCE GROUP OF SIEMENS CARRIER NETWORKS LLC (hereinafter
"Lessor"), and WORLDXCHANGE CORP., a Delaware corporation with its principal
office located at 9775 Business Park Avenue, San Diego, California 92131,
(hereinafter "Lessee").

1.    LEASE.

      Lessor, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 25 hereof, agrees
to lease to Lessee and Lessee agrees to lease from Lessor hereunder, those items
of personal property (the "equipment") which are described on the schedule(s)
attached to the Certificate(s) of Delivery and Acceptance (hereinafter
"Schedule") and amendments to such Schedule. Lessee agrees to execute and
deliver to Lessor a Certificate of Delivery and Acceptance immediately after
Acceptance of the equipment, and such execution shall constitute Lessee's
irrevocable acceptance of such items of equipment for all purposes of this
Lease.

2.    DEFINITIONS.

      "ACCEPTANCE" shall mean that point in time when the equipment installation
      personnel complete testing of the equipment and Lessee concurs that the
      installation effort is complete, or when the equipment is placed into
      service, whichever first occurs.

      "AMORTIZATION DEDUCTIONS" as defined in Section 11 (b) (i) hereof.

      "APPRAISAL PROCEDURE" shall mean the following procedure for determining
      the Fair Market Sale Value of any item of equipment. If either Lessor or
      Lessee shall request by notice (the "Appraisal Request") to the other that
      such value be determined by the Appraisal Procedure, (i) Lessor and Lessee
      shall, within 15 days after the Appraisal Request, appoint an independent
      appraiser mutually satisfactory to them, or (ii) if the parties are unable
      to agree on a mutually acceptable appraiser within such time, Lessor and
      Lessee shall each appoint one independent appraiser (PROVIDED that if
      either party hereto fails to notify the other party hereto of the identity
      of the independent appraiser chosen by it within 30 days after the
      Appraisal Request, the determination of such value shall be made by the
      independent appraiser chosen by such other party), and (iii) if such
      appraisers cannot agree on such value within 20 days after their
      appointment and if one appraisal is not within 5% of the other appraisal,
      Lessor and Lessee shall choose a third independent appraiser mutually
      satisfactory to them (or, if they fail to agree upon a third appraiser
      within 25 days after the appointment of the first two appraisers, such
      third independent appraiser shall within 20 days thereafter be appointed
      by the American Arbitration Association), and such value shall be
      determined by such third independent appraiser within 20 days after his
      appointment, after consultation with the other two independent appraisers.
      If the first two appraisals are within 5% of each other, then the average
      of the two appraisals shall be the Fair Market Sale Value. The fees and
      expenses of all appraisers shall be paid by Lessee.

      "BUSINESS DAY" shall mean a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or legal
      holiday under the laws of the State of Florida.

      "CERTIFICATE OF DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE" as defined in Section 1 hereof.

      "CODE" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, or any
      comparable successor law.

      notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default.

      "EQUIPMENT" as defined in Section 1 hereof.

      "EVENT OF DEFAULT" as defined in Section 18 hereof.

      "EVENT OF LOSS" shall mean, with respect to any item of equipment, the
      actual or constructive total loss of such item of equipment or the use
      thereof, due to theft, destruction, damage beyond repair or rendition

      the condemnation, confiscation or seizure of, or requisition of title to
      or use of, such item of equipment.

      "FAIR MARKET SALE VALUE" shall, at any time with respect to any item of
      equipment, be equal to the sale value

<Page>

      of such item of equipment which would be obtained in an arm's-length
      transaction between an informed and willing seller under no compulsion
      to sell and an informed and willing buyer-user (other than a lessee
      currently in possession or a used equipment or scrap dealer). For
      purposes of Section 7(b) hereof, Fair Market Sale Value shall be
      determined by (i) an independent appraiser (at Lessee's expense)
      selected by Lessor or (ii) by the Appraisal Procedure if the Appraisal
      Request is made at least 90 days (but not more than 360 days) prior to
      the termination or expiration of the Lease Term, as the case may be,
      which determination shall be made (a) without deduction for any costs
      or expenses of dismantling or removal; and (b) on the assumption that
      such item of equipment is free and clear of all Liens and is in the
      condition and repair in which it is required to be returned pursuant to
      Section 7 (a) hereof but shall be no greater than 10.5% of the leased
      equipment value. For purposes of Section 19(c) hereof, Fair Market Sale
      Value shall be determined (at Lessee's expense) by an independent
      appraiser selected by Lessor, on an "as-is, where-is" basis, without
      regard to the provisions of clauses (a) and (b) above; PROVIDED that if
      Lessor shall have sold any item of equipment pursuant to Section 19(b)
      hereof prior to giving the notice referred to in Section 19(c) hereof,
      Fair Market Sale Value of such item of equipment shall be the net
      proceeds of such sale after deduction of all costs and expenses
      incurred by Lessor in connection therewith; PROVIDED FURTHER, that if
      for any reason Lessor is not able to obtain possession of any item of

      (c) This Lease is a net lease, and Lessee's obligation to pay all rent and
all other amounts payable hereunder is ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL under any and

the extent permitted by applicable law, any and all rights which it may now have
or which may at any time hereafter be conferred upon it, by statute or
otherwise, to terminate, cancel, quit or surrender the lease of any equipment.
If for any reason whatsoever this Lease or any Supplement, other than pursuant

of law or otherwise, Lessee will nonetheless pay to Lessor an amount equal to
each installment of rent at the time such installment would have become due and
payable in accordance with the terms hereof. Each payment of rent or other
amount paid by Lessee hereunder shall be final and Lessee will not seek to
recover all or any part of such payment for Lessor for any reason whatsoever.

EQUIPMENT OR ANY PART THEREOF.

      LESSEE CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS SELECTED THE EQUIPMENT AND EACH PART THEREOF

THEREOF.

      (b) LESSOR HEREBY ASSIGNS TO LESSEE SUCH RIGHTS AS LESSOR MAY HAVE (TO
EXTENT LESSOR MAY VALIDLY ASSIGN SUCH RIGHTS) UNDER ALL MANUFACTURERS' AND
SUPPLIERS' WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE EQUIPMENT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE
FOREGOING RIGHTS SHALL AUTOMATICALLY REVERT TO LESSOR UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND
DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT HEREUNDER, OR UPON THE RETURN OF
THE EQUIPMENT TO LESSOR. LESSEE AGREES TO SETTLE ALL CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO THE
EQUIPMENT DIRECTLY WITH THE MANUFACTURERS OR SUPPLIERS THEREOF, AND TO GIVE

force and effect. Lessee shall pay all the costs and expenses in connection with
or incidental to the return of the equipment, including, without limitation, the

At the time of such return, the equipment shall be in the condition and repair
required to be maintained by Section 12 hereof and free and clear of all Liens.

      (b)  PURCHASE OPTION.

      So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Lessee may, by written notice given to Lessor at least 120 days (but

item of equipment (which notice shall be irrevocable), elect to purchase such
item of equipment on such expiration date for a cash purchase price equal to the
Fair Market Sale Value of such item of equipment determined as of such
expiration date, plus an amount equal to all taxes (other than income taxes on
any gain on such sale), costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses)
incurred or paid by Lessor in connection with such sale. Upon payment by Lessee
of such purchase price, and of all other amounts then due and payable by Lessee,

any Lessor's Liens.

8.    REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTIES.

      In order to induce Lessor to enter into this Lease and to lease the
equipment to Lessee hereunder, Lessee represents and warrants that:

      (a)  ORGANIZATION.

      Lessee is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware and is duly qualified to do business and is in
good standing in the State in which the equipment will be located.

      (b)  POWER AND AUTHORITY.

      Lessee has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and
perform this Lease, and the execution, delivery and performance hereof has been
duly authorized by Lessee's governing body or officer(s).

      (c)  ENFORCEABILITY.

      This Lease has been duly executed and delivered by Lessee and constitutes
a legal, valid and binding obligation of Lessee enforceable in accordance with
its terms.

      (d)  CONSENTS AND PERMITS.

      The execution, delivery and performance of this Lease does not require any
approval or consent of any trustee, shareholder, partner, sole proprietor, or
holders of any indebtedness or obligations of Lessee, and will not contravene
any law, regulation, judgment or decree applicable to Lessee, or the certificate
of partnership or incorporation or by-laws of Lessee, or contravene the
provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any
Lien upon any property of Lessee under any mortgage, instrument or other
agreement to which Lessee is a party or by which Lessee or its assets may be
bound or affected; and no authorization, approval, license, filing or
registration with any court or governmental agency or instrumentality is
necessary in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity and
enforceability of this Lease.

      (e)  FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE LESSEE.

      The financial statements and any other financial information of Lessee
heretofore furnished to Lessor are complete and correct and fairly present the
financial condition of Lessee and the results of its operations for the
respective periods covered thereby, there are no known contingent liabilities or
liabilities for taxes of Lessee which are not reflected in said financial
statements and since the date thereof, there has been no material adverse change
in such financial condition or operations.

      (f)  NO LITIGATION.

      There is no action, suit, investigation or proceeding by or before any
court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other governmental authority pending
or threatened against or affecting Lessee (A) which involves the transactions
contemplated by this Lease or the equipment; or (B) which, if adversely
determined, could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition,
business or operations of Lessee.

      (g)  UNITED STATES SOURCE INCOME.

      No items of equipment shall be used in a way that results in the creation
of an item of income to Lessor, the source of which for Federal Income Tax
purposes is without the United States.

9.    LIENS.

      Lessee will not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume, suffer, or
permit to exist any Lien on or with respect to the equipment.

10.   INSURANCE.

      Lessee shall maintain at all times on the equipment, at its expense,
property damage, direct damage and liability insurance in such amounts, against
such risks, in such form and with such insurers as shall be reasonably
satisfactory to Lessor and any other Owner; provided, that the amount of direct
damage insurance shall not on any

<Page>

date be less than the greater of the full replacement value or the Stipulated
Loss Value of the equipment as of such date. Each insurance policy will, among
other things, name Lessor and any other Owner as an additional insured or as
loss payee (as the case may be) as their interests may appear, require that the
insurer give Lessor and any such Owner at least thirty (30) days prior written
notice of any alteration in or cancellation of the terms of such policy, and
require that the interest of Lessor and any such Owner continue to be insured
regardless of any breach of or violation by Lessee of any warranties,
declarations or conditions contained in such insurance policy. Lessee shall
furnish to Lessor and such Owner a certificate or other evidence satisfactory
to Lessor that such insurance coverage is in effect provided, however, that
Lessor and such Owner shall be under no duty to ascertain the existence or
adequacy of such insurance.

11.   TAXES.

      (a)  GENERAL TAX PROVISIONS.

and against, all fees, taxes (whether sales, use, excise, personal property or
other taxes), imposts, duties, withholdings, assessments and other governmental
charges of whatever kind or character, however designated (together with any
penalties, fines or interest thereon), all of the foregoing being herein
collectively called "Impositions", which are at any time levied or imposed
against Lessor, Lessee, this Lease, the equipment or any part thereof by any
Federal, State, or Local Government or taxing authority in the United States or

the rentals, receipts or earnings payable under this Lease or otherwise arising
from the equipment or any part thereof; EXCLUDING, HOWEVER, taxes based on or
measured by the net income of Lessor that are imposed by (1) the United States
of America, or (2) the State of Florida or any political subdivision of the
State of Florida, or (3) any other State of the United States of America or any
political subdivision of any such State in which Lessor is subject to
Impositions as the result (whether solely or in part) of business or
transactions unrelated to this Lease. In case any report or return is required
to be filed with respect to any obligation of Lessee under this Section or
arising out of this Section, Lessee will notify Lessor of such requirement and
make such report or return in such manner as shall be satisfactory to Lessor;
PROVIDED, that the payment of any use taxes shall be made in such manner as
specified by Lessor in writing to Lessee; or (iv) The provisions of this Section
shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

      (b)  SPECIAL TAX PROVISIONS.

            (i) The Owner of the items of equipment, shall be entitled to take
into account in computing its Federal income tax liability, Current Tax Rate and
such deductions, credits, and other benefits as are provided by the Code to an
owner of property, including, without limitation:

            (A)Recovery deductions ("Recovery Deductions") under Section 168 (a)
of the Code for each item of equipment in an amount determined, commencing with
the 2001 taxable year, by multiplying the Owner's Cost of such item of equipment
by the percentages applicable under Section 168 (b) of the Code with respect to
"(5)-year property" within the meaning of Section 168 (c) (2) of the Code;

            (B) Amortization of expenses ("Amortization Deductions") paid or to
be paid by Owner in connection with this Lease at a rate no less rapid than

"Owner" shall include the "common parent" and all other corporations included in
the affiliated group, within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code (or any
other successor section thereto), of which Owner is or becomes a member.

12.   COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS; OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE.

      (a) Lessee will use the equipment in a careful and proper manner, will
comply with and conform to all governmental laws, rules and regulations relating
thereto, and will cause the equipment to be operated in accordance with the
manufacturer's or supplier's instructions or manuals.

      (b) Lessee will, at its own expense, keep and maintain the equipment in
good repair, condition and working order and furnish all parts, replacements,
mechanisms, devices and servicing required therefor so that the value, condition
and operating efficiency therefor will at all times be maintained and preserved,
reasonable wear and tear excepted. Lessee will, at its own expense, perform all
required acts necessary to maintain any manufacturer's warranties and guarantees
respecting the equipment. All such repairs, parts, mechanisms, devices and
replacements shall immediately, without further act, become the property of
Lessor and part of the equipment.

<Page>

      (c) Lessee will not make or authorize any improvement, change, addition or
alteration to the equipment (i) if such improvement, change, addition or
alteration will impair the originally intended function or use of the equipment
or impair the value of the equipment as it existed immediately prior to such
improvement, change, addition or alteration; or (ii) if any parts installed in
or attached to or otherwise becoming a part of the equipment as a result of any
such improvement, change, addition or alteration shall not be readily removable
without damage to the equipment. Any part which is added to the equipment
without violating the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence and which
is not a replacement or substitution for any property which was a part of the
equipment, shall remain the property of Lessee and may be removed by Lessee at
any time prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. All
such parts shall be and remain free and clear of any Liens. Any such part which
is not so removed prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease
Term shall, without further act, become the property of Lessor.

13.   INSPECTION.

      Upon prior notice, Lessor or its authorized representatives may at any
reasonable time or times inspect the equipment when it deems it necessary to
protect its interest therein.

14.   IDENTIFICATION.

      Lessee shall, at its expense, attach to each item of equipment a notice
satisfactory to Lessor disclosing Owner's ownership of such item of equipment.

15.   PERSONAL PROPERTY.

      Lessee represents that the equipment shall be and at all times remain
separately identifiable personal property. Lessee shall, at its expense, take
such action (including the obtaining and recording of waivers) as may be
necessary to prevent any third party from acquiring any right to or interest in
the equipment by virtue of the equipment being deemed to be real property or a
part of real property or a part of other personal property, and if at any time
any person shall claim any such right or interest, Lessee shall, at its expense,
cause such claim to be waived in writing or otherwise eliminated to Lessor's
satisfaction within 30 days after such claim shall have first become known to
Lessee.

16.   LOSS OR DAMAGE.

      (a) All risk of loss, theft, damage or destruction to the equipment or any
part thereof, however incurred or occasioned, shall be borne by Lessee and,
unless such occurrence constitutes an Event of Loss pursuant to paragraph (b) of
this Section, Lessee shall promptly give Lessor written notice hereof and shall
promptly cause the affected part or parts of the equipment to be replaced or
restored to the condition and repair required to be maintained by Section 12
hereof.

      (b) If an Event of Loss with respect to any item of equipment shall occur,
Lessee shall promptly give Lessor written notice thereof, and Lessee shall pay
to Lessor as soon as it receives insurance proceeds with respect to said Event
of Loss but in any event no later than 90 days after the occurrence of said
Event of Loss an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Stipulated Loss Value of
such item of equipment computed as of the Rent Payment Date with respect to such
item of equipment on or immediately preceding the date of the occurrence of such
Event of Loss; and (ii) all rent and other amounts due and owing hereunder for
such item of equipment on or prior to the Loss Payment Date. Upon payment of
such amount to Lessor, the lease of such item of equipment hereunder shall
terminate, and Lessor will transfer within forty days to Lessee, Lessor's right,
title, if any, and interest in and to such item of equipment, on an "as-is,
where-is" basis, without recourse and without representation or warranty,
express or implied, other than a representation and warranty that such item of
equipment is free and clear of any Lessor's Liens.

      (c) Any payments received at any time by Lessor or Lessee from any insurer
with respect to loss or damage to the equipment shall be applied as follows: (i)
if such payments are received with respect to an Event of Loss they shall be
paid to Lessor, but to the extent received by Lessor, they shall reduce or
discharge, as the case may be, Lessee's obligation to pay the amounts due to
Lessor under Section 16 (b) hereof with respect to such Event of Loss; or (ii)
if such payments are received with respect to any loss of or damage to the
equipment other than an Event of Loss, such payments shall, unless a Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be paid over to Lessee
to reimburse Lessee for its payment of the costs and expenses incurred by Lessee
in replacing or restoring pursuant to Section 16 (a) hereof the part or parts of
the equipment which suffered such loss or damage.

17.   GENERAL INDEMNITY.

      Lessee assumes liability for, and shall indemnify, protect save and keep
harmless Lessor, the partners comprising Lessor, its and their directors,
officers, employees, agents, servants, successors and assigns (an

<Page>

"Indemnitee") from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, claims, actions, suits, costs and expenses (other than
customary internal administrative costs and expenses associated with the Lease,
which shall be borne by the party incurring them), including reasonable legal
expenses, of whatsoever kind and nature, imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against any Indemnitee, in any way relating to or arising out of this Lease or
the enforcement hereof, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection,
ownership, possession, use, selection, delivery, lease, operation, condition,
sale, return or other disposition of the equipment or any part thereof
(including, without limitation, latent or other defects, whether or not
discoverable by Lessee or any other person, any claim in tort whether or not
for strict liability and any claim for patent, trademark, copyright or other
intellectual property infringement); provided, however, that Lessee shall not
be required to indemnify any Indemnitee for loss or liability arising from acts
or events which occur after the equipment has been returned to Lessor in
accordance with the Lease, or for loss or liability resulting solely from the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee. The provisions of
this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

called "Event of Default") under this Lease:

shall occur, then, and in any such event, Lessor shall not be obligated to
purchase or lease any of the equipment and this Lease shall, without any
declaration or other action by Lessor, be in default. If an Event of Default,
other than an Event of Default specified in Subsection 18(vii) or (viii) above,
shall occur, Lessor may, at its option, declare this Lease to be in default. At
any time after this Lease is in default under the first sentence of this Section
19, Lessor has declared this Lease to be in default under the second sentence of
this Section 19, Lessor and/or its representative may do any one or more of the
following with respect to all of the equipment or any part thereof as Lessor in
its sole discretion shall elect, to the extent permitted by applicable law then
in effect:

      (a) demand that Lessee, and Lessee shall at its expense upon such demand,
return the equipment promptly to Lessor at such place in the continental United
States of America as Lessor shall specify, or Lessor and/or its agents, at its
option, may with or without entry upon the premises where the equipment is
located and disable the equipment, or make the equipment inoperable permanently
or temporarily in Lessor's sole discretion, and/or take immediate possession of
the equipment and remove the same by summary proceedings or otherwise, all
without liability for or by reason of such entry or taking of possession,
whether for the restoration of damage to property caused by such taking or for
disabling or otherwise;

      (b) sell the equipment at public or private sale, with or without notice,
advertisement or publication, as Lessor may determine, or otherwise dispose of,
hold, use, operate, lease to others or keep idle the equipment as Lessor in its
sole discretion may determine, all free and clear of any rights of Lessee and
without any duty to account to Lessee with respect to such action or inaction or
for any proceeds with respect thereto;

      (c) by written notice to Lessee specifying a payment date which shall be
not earlier than 20 days after the date of such notice, demand that Lessee pay

accrued and unpaid rent for the equipment due on all Rent Payment Dates up to
and including the payment date specified in such notice PLUS an amount (together
with interest on such amount at the Late Charge Rate, from the payment date
specified in such notice to the date of actual payment) equal to the excess, if
any, of the Stipulated Loss Value of the equipment as of the payment date
specified in such notice over the Fair Market Sale Value of the equipment as of
such date;

      (d) Lessor may exercise any other right or remedy which may be available
to it under applicable law or proceed by appropriate court action to enforce the
terms hereof or to recover damages for the breach hereof or to rescind this
Lease. Lessor is entitled to recover any amount that fully compensates the
Lessor for any damage to or loss of the Lessor's residual interest in the
equipment caused by the Lessee's default.

      In the event any present value discounting is applied, the discount rate
used shall be the Federal Reserve Board Discount Rate.

      In addition, Lessee shall be liable for any and all unpaid rent and other
amounts due hereunder before or during the exercise of any of the foregoing
remedies and for all reasonable legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred
by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default or the exercise of Lessor's
remedies with respect thereto, including all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the placing of the equipment in the condition
required by Section 12 hereof.

      No remedy referred to in this Section 19 is intended to be exclusive, but
each shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy referred to herein
or otherwise available to Lessor at law or in equity; and the exercise or
beginning of exercise by Lessor of any one or more of such remedies shall not
preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Lessor of any or all such other
remedies. No express or implied waiver by Lessor of an Event of Default shall in
any way be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any future or subsequent Event of
Default. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lessee hereby waives any
rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise which may require
Lessor to sell or lease or otherwise use the equipment in mitigation of Lessor's
damages or losses or which may otherwise limit or modify any of Lessor's rights
or remedies under this Lease.

20.   LESSOR'S RIGHT TO PERFORM.

contemplated by this Lease shall be satisfactory to Lessor's counsel; and

            (vii) No Change in Tax Law, which in the sole judgment of Lessor
would adversely affect Lessor's Economics, shall have occurred or shall appear,
in Lessor's good faith judgment, to be imminent.

the equipment manufacturer to grant Lessee a license to use the Software as
defined in the License Document in conjunction with the equipment leased
hereunder in accordance with the terms of the License Document. The original

LESSEE BY ANY OTHER PARTY.

28.   MISCELLANEOUS.

      (a) Any provision of this Lease which is prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provisions in any
other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lessee hereby
waives any provision of law which renders any provision hereof prohibited or
unenforceable in any respect.

      (b) No terms or provisions of this Lease may be changed, waived,
discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by
the party against which the enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or
termination is sought. No delay or failure on the part of Lessor to exercise any
power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor as an
acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise
of any other power or right. After the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default, the acceptance by Lessor of any payment of rent or other sum owed by
Lessee pursuant hereto shall not constitute a waiver by Lessor of such Default
or Event of Default, regardless of Lessor's knowledge or lack of knowledge
thereof at the time of acceptance of any such payment, and shall not constitute
a reinstatement of this Lease, if this Lease shall have been declared in default
by Lessor pursuant to Section 18 hereof or otherwise, unless Lessor shall have
agreed in writing to reinstate the Lease and to waive the Default or Event of
Default.

In the event Lessee tenders payment to Lessor by check or draft containing a
qualified endorsement purporting to limit or modify Lessee's liability or
obligations under this Lease, such qualified endorsement shall be of no force
and effect even if Lessor processes the check or draft for payment.

      (c) This Lease with exhibits contains the full, final and exclusive
statement of the agreement between Lessor and Lessee relating to the lease of
the equipment.

      (d) This Lease shall constitute an agreement of an operating lease, and
nothing herein shall be construed as conveying to Lessee any right, title or
interest in the equipment except as Lessee only.

      (e) This Lease and the covenants and agreements contained herein shall be
binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Lessor and its successors and assigns
and Lessee and, to the extent permitted by Section 21 hereof, its successors and
assigns.

      (f) The headings of the Sections are for convenience of reference only,
are not a part of this Lease and shall not be deemed to affect the meaning or
construction of any of the provisions hereof.

      (g) This Lease may be executed by the parties hereto on any number of
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.

      (h) This Lease is deemed made and entered into in the State of Florida and
shall be governed by and construed under and in accordance with the laws of the
State of Florida as if both parties were residents of Florida.

      (i) Lessee hereby irrevocably consents and agrees that any legal action,
suit, or proceeding arising out of or in any way in connection with this Lease
shall be instituted or brought in the courts of the State of Florida, or the
United States Courts for the District of Florida, and by execution and delivery
of this Lease, Lessee hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to, for itself and
in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any such court, and to all proceedings in such courts. Lessee
irrevocably consents to service of any summons and/or legal process by
registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, to Lessee at the
address set forth in Section 24 hereof, such method of service to constitute, in
every respect, sufficient and effective service of process in any legal action
or proceeding. Nothing in this Lease shall affect the right to service of
process in any other manner permitted by law or limit the right of Lessor to
bring actions, suits or proceedings in the court of any other jurisdiction.
Lessee further agrees that final judgment against it in any such legal action,
suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other
jurisdiction, within or outside the United States of America, by suit on the
judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence
of the fact and the amount of the liability. In the event legal action is taken
by Lessor or Lessee to enforce their respective rights under this Lease, all
costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees,
incurred by the prevailing party shall be paid by the non-prevailing party.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Lessor and Lessee have each caused this Lease to be duly
executed as of the day and year first above written and by its signature below
Lessee expressly acknowledges that this Lease may not be

modified unless done so in a writing signed by each of the parties hereto or
their successors in interest.

resignation or removal.

      Section 2.7. CONVERSION OF SHARES. The aggregate amount of consideration
payable pursuant to this Section 2.7 is hereinafter referred to as the "Merger
Consideration," and is calculated based on a $0.56 per share valuation of

result that the shareholders of the Company will own 17,454,333 shares of the
outstanding Purchaser Common Stock immediately following the Merger. Subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as of the Effective Time (and as
elected by each stockholder of the Company prior to the Effective Time), by
virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Merger Sub, the
Company or the holder of any shares of the Company Common Stock, the following
shall occur:

      (a) EACH SHARE OF COMPANY COMMON STOCK ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING IMMEDIATELY
PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE TIME (OTHER THAN SHARES HELD IN THE COMPANY'S TREASURY),
SHALL, BY VIRTUE OF THE MERGER AND WITHOUT ANY ACTION ON THE PART OF THE HOLDERS
THEREOF, BE CONVERTED INTO THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE 0.1313 (THE "EXCHANGE RATIO") OF
A SHARE OF PURCHASER COMMON STOCK (SUBJECT TO ADJUSTMENT AS PROVIDED HEREIN),
SUCH THAT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE EFFECTIVE TIME 17,454,333 SHARES OF THE
PURCHASER WILL BE OWNED BY THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS, AS INDICATED ON EXHIBIT A
ATTACHED HERETO.

      (b) All shares of Company Common Stock converted in accordance with
Section 2.7(a) shall, when so converted, no longer be outstanding and shall
automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder
of a certificate representing any such shares of Company Common Stock (a
"Certificate") shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the
right to receive the Merger Consideration payable with respect thereto. Each
share of Company Stock held in the treasury of the Company shall, by virtue of
the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be
canceled, retired and cease to exist and no payment shall be made with respect
thereto.

      (c) Each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and
without any action on the part of Merger Sub or the Purchaser, be converted into
one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

      Section 2.8. PAYMENT OF MERGER CONSIDERATION. On the Closing Date, the
Purchaser shall deliver the Merger Consideration payable to Counsel and the
other Company shareholders registered in their respective names. The Merger
Consideration is subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 2.9.

this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of
Purchaser Common Stock or Company Common Stock shall have been increased,
decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or
securities through reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock
dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other like changes in the
Purchaser's or the Company's capitalization, then an appropriate and
proportionate adjustment shall be made in the terms of the consideration
provided for in this Article II.

      Section 2.10 FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fraction of a share of Purchaser Common
Stock will be issued, but in lieu thereof, each holder of shares of Company
Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of
Purchaser Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Purchaser
Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall be entitled to receive from
Purchaser an amount of cash (rounded down to the nearest whole cent) equal to
the product of (i) such fraction, multiplied by (ii) the value ascribed to each
share of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement.

      Section 2.11.     EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES.

<Page>

      (a) AT THE CLOSING, COUNSEL AND THE OTHER COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS SHALL
SURRENDER ITS CERTIFICATE OR CERTIFICATES, WITH SUCH STOCK POWERS EXECUTED IN
BLANK OR OTHERWISE IN PROPER FORM FOR TRANSFER TO THE PURCHASER AS THE PURCHASER
MAY REASONABLY REQUEST IN EXCHANGE FOR THE PORTION OF THE MERGER CONSIDERATION
INTO WHICH THE SHARES OF COMPANY COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY SUCH CERTIFICATE OR
CERTIFICATES SHALL HAVE BEEN CONVERTED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT. UPON SUCH
SURRENDER, COUNSEL AND THE OTHER COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS SHALL BE ENTITLED TO
RECEIVE IN EXCHANGE THEREFOR THE MERGER CONSIDERATION TO WHICH COUNSEL AND THE
OTHER COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS SHALL HAVE BECOME ENTITLED PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS
OF THIS ARTICLE II AND THE CERTIFICATE SO SURRENDERED SHALL FORTHWITH BE
CANCELED. NO INTEREST WILL BE PAID OR ACCRUED ON ANY CASH CONSTITUTING MERGER
CONSIDERATION AND ANY UNPAID DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS, IF ANY, PAYABLE TO
HOLDERS OF CERTIFICATES. UNTIL SURRENDERED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF
THIS SECTION 2.11, EACH CERTIFICATE (OTHER THAN CERTIFICATES CANCELED PURSUANT
TO SECTION 2.7(b)) SHALL REPRESENT FOR ALL PURPOSES ONLY THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE
THE MERGER CONSIDERATION PROVIDED FOR BY THIS AGREEMENT, WITHOUT INTEREST.

      (b) No dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time
with respect to the Purchaser Common Stock and payable to the holders of record
thereof shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until the
holder thereof shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with this Article
II. After the surrender of a Certificate in accordance with this Article II, the
record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other
distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become
payable with respect to shares of the Purchaser Common Stock, if any,
represented by such Certificate.

      (c) After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock
transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common
Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving
Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration
as provided for, and in accordance with, the provisions of this Section 2.11.

      (d) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming
such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the
Purchaser, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as the Purchaser
reasonably may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it
with respect to such Certificate, the Purchaser will issue in exchange for such
lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the cash and shares of Purchaser Common
Stock deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

            Section 2.12. CLOSING. The closing of the transactions contemplated
hereby (the "Closing") shall take place as soon as practicable following the
satisfaction or waiver (to the extent waivable) of the conditions set forth in
Article VI or at such other time and place (including via exchange of facsmile
documents) as the parties may agree. The time and date of the Closing is herein
referred to as the "Closing Date."

of the Company.


            (b) The audited financial statements of Nexbell for the year ended

the other Purchaser and the Merger Sub Documents, or the compliance by the
Purchaser and the Merger Sub with any of the provisions hereof or thereof.

      Section 4.5.  REPORTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

            (a) Since January 1, 1996, the Purchaser has filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") all forms, statements, reports
and documents (including all exhibits, post-effective amendments and supplements
thereto) required to be filed by it under each of the Securities Act, the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the
respective rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, all of which, as
amended (if applicable), complied in all material respects, when filed with all
applicable requirements of the appropriate act and the rules and regulations
thereunder. The Purchaser has previously delivered or made available to Company
copies (including all exhibits, post-effective amendments and supplements

2000, December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, as filed with the SEC; (ii)
definitive proxy and information statements relating to all meetings of its
stockholders (whether annual or special) from December 31, 1998 until the date

1998 (other than registration statements filed on Form S-8) (the documents
referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) being referred to as the "PURCHASER
SEC REPORTS"). As of their respective dates (or to the extent amended or
superseded by a subsequent filing, with respect to the information in such
subsequent filing, or as of the date of the subsequent filing), the Purchaser
SEC Reports did not or will not (as the case may be) contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The audited
consolidated financial statements of the Purchaser included in the Purchaser's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2000, December 31,
1999 and December 31, 1998 (collectively, the "PURCHASER FINANCIAL STATEMENTS")
have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a basis consistent with prior periods
and fairly presented the consolidated financial position of the Purchaser and
the Purchaser Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the related consolidated
statement of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity included in the
Purchaser SEC Reports fairly presented the consolidated results of operations of
the Purchaser and the Purchaser Subsidiaries for the respective periods then
ended (subject, in the case of unaudited interim statements to normal year-end
adjustments and the absence of certain footnote disclosures).

            (c) The audited consolidated financial statements of the Purchaser
included in the Purchaser's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the years ended
December 31, 2000, December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and any interim
financial statements of the Purchaser since December 31, 2000 (collectively, the
"PURCHASER FINANCIAL STATEMENTS") have been prepared in accordance with the
United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a
basis consistent with prior periods and fairly presented the consolidated
financial position of the Purchaser as of the dates thereof and the related
consolidated statement of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity
included in the Purchaser SEC Reports fairly presented the consolidated results
of operations of the Purchaser for the respective periods then ended (subject,
in the case of unaudited interim statements to normal year-end adjustments and
the absence of certain footnote disclosures).

            (d) As of the date of this Agreement, except as set forth in the
Purchaser's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2000 or in any other
Purchaser SEC Report filed since that Annual Report or as previously disclosed
in writing to the Company and prior to the date of this Agreement, neither the
Purchaser nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to or bound by (i) any
"material contract" (as such term is defined in Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation
S-K of the SEC) or (ii) any non-competition agreement or any other agreement or
arrangement that limits the Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries or any of their
respective affiliates, or that would, after the date hereof similarly limit the
Purchaser or the Company or any successor thereto, from engaging or

<Page>

competing in any line of business or in any geographic area after giving effect
to the transactions contemplated hereby.

      Section 4.6. ABSENCE OF UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES; AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS.

            (a) Except for matters reflected or reserved against in the balance
sheet for the period ended December 31, 2000 included in the Purchaser Financial
Statements or as previously disclosed in writing to the Company, neither the
Purchaser nor any of the Purchaser Subsidiaries (including the Merger Sub) had
at such date or has incurred since that date any liabilities, obligations
(whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) or contingencies of any
nature, except (i) liabilities, obligations or contingencies (A) which are
accrued or reserved against in the Purchaser Financial Statements or reflected
in the notes thereto or (B) which were incurred after December 31, 2000 in the
ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices; or (ii)
liabilities, obligations or contingencies which are of a nature not required to
be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Purchaser and the
Purchaser Subsidiaries prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and
which were incurred in the ordinary course of business. The Purchaser and the
Merger Sub are current in the payment of all taxes.

            (e) Except as specifically disclosed in the Purchaser SEC Reports
filed prior to the date of this Agreement or as previously disclosed in writing
to the Company, there are no other transactions, agreements, arrangements or
understandings between the Purchaser or the Purchaser Subsidiaries (including
the Merger Sub), on the one hand, and the Purchaser's affiliates (other than
wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Purchaser) or other Persons, on the other hand,
that would be required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K
promulgated under the Securities Act.

      Section 4.7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. The Purchaser and the Merger Sub own,
or have the right to use (or believes, after due inquiry, that it can obtain the
right to use on reasonable commercial terms), all patents, patent applications,
trademarks, service names, trade names, copyrights, licenses, trade secrets or
other proprietary rights necessary to conduct their business as now being
conducted and as proposed to be conducted to the Purchaser's and Merger Sub's
knowledge without any conflict or infringement of the rights of others and the
Purchaser, except as disclosed on Schedule 4.7, has not received a notice that
it is infringing upon or otherwise acting adversely to the right or claimed
right of any person under or with respect to any of the foregoing, and to the
Purchaser's and the Merger Sub's knowledge there is no basis for any such claim.
The Purchaser and the Merger Sub have disclosed to Counsel a complete list of
patents and pending patent applications of the Purchaser and the Merger Sub.
Neither the Purchaser nor the Merger Sub is aware of any violation by a third
party of any of the Purchaser's or Merger Sub's patents, trademarks, service
marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets or other proprietary rights.
Neither the Purchaser nor the Merger Sub is aware that any of its employees is
obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of
any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of
any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with their duties to
the Purchaser and/or the Merger Sub or that would conflict with the Purchaser's
and the Merger Sub's business as now being conducted and as proposed to be
conducted. Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the conduct
of the Purchaser's and Merger Sub's businesses will, to the Purchaser's and
Merger Sub's knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms,
conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract,
covenant or instrument under which any employee is now obligated.

      Section 4.8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. Except as set forth in the attached
Schedule 4.8, there are no Legal Proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the
Purchaser and the Merger Sub, threatened that are reasonably likely to prohibit
or restrain the ability of the Purchaser and the Merger Sub to enter into this
Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or which otherwise
would result in a Material Adverse Change.

<Page>

      Section 4.9. NO MISREPRESENTATION. Neither this Agreement (including the
Exhibits hereto), nor (as of the date hereof) any Purchaser SEC Report contains
any untrue statement of a material fact nor omits a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading.


                                    ARTICLE V

foregoing, but not in limitation thereof, each party shall permit the other
party hereto and its agents and representatives or cause them to be permitted to
have full and complete access to its premises, books and records upon reasonable
notice during regular business hours and shall furnish such financial and
operating data, projections, forecasts, business plans, strategic plans and
other data relating to itself and its business as the other party hereto shall
reasonably request from time to time. Prior to the Closing, the parties hereto
agree that except as otherwise required by law, any and all public announcements
or other communications concerning this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be subject to the prior written approval of each of
the parties hereto.

      Section 5.2. COMPANY AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. Prior to the Closing, except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company shall, except as otherwise
contemplated by this Agreement, conduct its business only in the ordinary and
regular course of business.

prior written consent of the Purchaser, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the Company shall not enter into any contract, agreement or commitment
(other than in the ordinary course of business) which, if entered into prior to
the date of this Agreement, would cause any representation or warranty of the
Company or Counsel to be untrue in any material respect or be required to be
disclosed on any Schedule delivered pursuant to Article III hereof.

      Section 5.4 PURCHASER AND MERGER SUB NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Prior to the
Closing, without the prior written consent of the Company, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, the Purchaser will conduct its business only in the
ordinary and regular course of business consistent with past practices and the
Merger Sub will not conduct any material business or incur any material
liabilities.

therefor.

      Section 5.7. REORGANIZATION TREATMENT. Neither the Purchaser nor the
Company shall intentionally take, or fail to take or cause to be taken or not be
taken, any action within its control, whether before or after the Effective

disqualify the Merger as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a)
of the Code.

<Page>

      Section 5.8. APPROVAL BY PURCHASER. The Purchaser, in its capacity as the
sole stockholder of Merger Sub, shall vote the shares of Merger Sub to approve

is hereinafter referred to as an "Indemnified Party."

      Section 8.3. PROCEDURES FOR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. In the case of any claim
for indemnification arising from a claim of a third party (a "Third Party

disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.
The Indemnifying Party shall have no indemnification obligations with respect to
any Third Party Claim which shall be settled by the Indemnified Party without
the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.

      Section 8.4. PROCEDURES FOR INTER-PARTY CLAIMS. In the event that an
Indemnified Party determines that it has a claim for Damages against an
Indemnifying Party hereunder (other than as a result of a Third Party Claim),

Indemnifying Party, specifying the amount of such claim and any relevant facts
and circumstances relating thereto. The Indemnified Party shall provide the
Indemnifying Party with reasonable access to its books and records for the
purpose of allowing the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to verify
any such claim for Damages. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party
shall negotiate in good faith regarding the resolution of any disputed claims
for Damages. Promptly following the final determination of the amount of any
Damages claimed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall pay such
Damages to the Indemnified Party by wire transfer or check made payable to the
order of the Indemnified Party, without interest. In the event that the
Indemnified Party is required to institute legal proceedings in order to recover
Damages hereunder, the cost of such proceedings (including costs of
investigation and reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) shall be added
to the amount of Damages payable to the Indemnified Party. No Indemnifying
Party's and its Affiliates' aggregate liability, i.e. the amount of Damages
payable, under this Section 8.4, shall exceed $ (excluding (i) liabilities for
taxes (ii) liabilities arising from knowing misrepresentations or fraud and
(iii) claims for breach of the representations and warranties contained in
Section 3.5).

any Damages as the Indemnifying Party hereunder, such Damages be shall be funded

Merger Shares so returned by Counsel shall equal the amount of such Damages,
with the value of such shares to be the higher of the fair market value thereof
or $0.56 per share.
