----------------
Delaware corporation, and each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries party to
the Agreement (as defined below) (each, individually, a "Borrower" and
--------
collectively, the "Borrowers"), THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK, a New York banking
---------
corporation, and each of the other commercial banks, finance companies,
insurance companies or other financial institutions or funds from time to time
party to the Agreement (as defined below) (the "Lenders"), and THE CHASE

-----
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Agent are parties to that
certain Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 4, 2000, as amended (the
"Agreement"), pursuant to which the Lenders have made available to the Borrowers
---------
a revolving credit and letter of credit facility in an aggregate principal
amount not to exceed $350,000,000 and initially not to be less than
$200,000,000; and
WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Lenders make certain
modifications to the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Borrowers and the Lenders desire to amend and to
supplement the Agreement to reflect the modifications requested by the
Borrowers;
WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 9.3
-----------
of the Agreement, each Lender is entitled to assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a ratable portion of its interests, rights and obligations
under the Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its
Commitment and the same portion of the related Loans at the time owing to it) by
executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance between such Lender and
such Eligible Assignee substantially in the form of Exhibit D to the Agreement;
---------
and
WHEREAS, pursuant hereto, Chase, the sole Lender party to the
Agreement immediately prior to the effective date of this Amendment (in such
capacity, the "Original Lender") wishes to assign to each of the financial
---------------
institutions (other than itself) that is named on the Commitment Schedule hereto
(such financial institutions other than the Original Lender, collectively the
"New Lenders"), and each of the New Lenders wishes to assume, a portion of the

Original Lender's interests, rights and obligations under the Agreement so that,
after giving effect to this Amendment, the respective Commitments of the
Original Lender and the New Lenders will be as set forth in such Commitment

WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the Original Lender, the New Lenders and the
Agent have determined that the execution and delivery of this Amendment to,

defined), each of the New Lenders shall become a party to the Agreement as a
Lender and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder, and the

Schedule hereto, as such amount may be reduced from time to time pursuant to the
Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements herein set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise
-----------
defined in this Second Amendment are used as defined in the Agreement.
Section 2. Amendments to Agreement. Subject to the conditions set
-----------------------
forth in Section 6 hereof, the Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
---------
2.1 Section 1.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by (A) adding the
-----------
following additional defined terms in the proper alphabetic location:
"Account Debtor" means, with respect to any Account, the obligor with
--------------
respect to such Account.
"Adjusted Eligible Accounts Receivable" shall mean the product of
-------------------------------------
Eligible Accounts Receivable minus the Dilution Reserve.
"Adjusted Fiber Optic Network" shall mean the Fiber Optic Network,
----------------------------
valued at the Replacement Cost Without Time-to-Market Value, at the
beginning of the period less the disposal of or sale of assets during
such period. The disposal of or sale of assets shall be accounted for
and calculated, based on the most recent asset appraisal report, as
follows: (a) the number of disposed of or sold Fiber Optic Network
miles classified as either rural, suburban and urban, multiplied by
(b) the quotient of the Replacement Cost Without Time-To-Market Value
By Region divided by the total number of fiber optic miles by region.
"Adjusted Fixed Assets Other Than Fiber Optic Network" shall mean the
----------------------------------------------------
Fixed Assets other than Fiber Optic Network, valued at the Orderly
Liquidation Value in Exchange, at the beginning of the period less the
disposal of or sale of assets during such period. The deduction for
the disposal of or sale of assets in the foregoing equation shall be
calculated for each type of assets disposed of as follows: (a) the
original cost of the assets of such type disposed of, multiplied by
(b) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Orderly
Liquidation Value in

Exchange for such assets and the denominator of which shall be the
external cost for assets in the applicable asset category, all as set
forth in the most recent asset appraisal report on Borrowers' assets
prepared by or on behalf of Agent.
"Dilution Factors" shall mean, with respect to any period, the
----------------
aggregate amount of all gross credit memos, adjustments, allowances,
bad debt write-offs and other non-cash credits which are recorded to
reduce accounts receivable in a manner consistent with current and
historical accounting practices of the Borrowers.
"Dilution Ratio" shall mean, at any date, the amount (expressed as a
--------------
percentage) equal to (a) the aggregate amount of the applicable
Dilution Factors the six (6) most recently ended fiscal months divided
-------
by (b) total gross sales for the six (6) most recently ended fiscal
months. The Dilution Ratio calculated on the Borrowers' available
Accounts data shall be applied to those Accounts on which the Dilution
Ratio cannot be determined as a result of insufficient available
information from the Borrowers' billing platforms.
"Dilution Reserve" shall mean, at any date, the applicable Dilution
----------------
Ratio multiplied by the Eligible Accounts Receivable on such date.
"Eligible Accounts Receivable" means, at the time of any determination
----------------------------
thereof, each Account that satisfies the following criteria at the
time of creation and continues to meet the same at the time of such
determination: such Account (i) has been invoiced to, and represents

services, in each case originated in the ordinary course of business
of the Borrowers and (ii) is not ineligible for inclusion in the
calculation of the Borrowing Base pursuant to any of clauses (a)
through (m) below or otherwise deemed by the Agent in good faith to be
ineligible for inclusion in the calculation of the Borrowing Base as
described below. Without limiting the foregoing, to qualify as
Eligible Accounts Receivable, an Account shall indicate no person
other than a Borrower as payee or remittance party. In determining
the amount to be so included, the face amount of an Account shall be
reduced by, without duplication, to the extent not reflected in such
face amount, (i) the amount of all accrued and actual discounts,

aggregate amount of all limits and deductions provided for in this
definition and elsewhere in this Agreement and (iii) the aggregate
amount of all cash received in respect of such Account but not yet
applied by the Borrowers to reduce the amount of such Account. Unless
otherwise approved from time to time in writing by the Agent, no
Account shall be an Eligible Account Receivable if, without
duplication:
(a) the relevant Borrower does not have sole lawful and absolute
title to such Account; or
3
(b) (i) it is unpaid more than 90 days from the original date of
invoice or 60 days from the original due date or (ii) it has been
written off the books of the Borrowers or has been otherwise

Debtor are ineligible pursuant to clause (b) above; or
(d) the Account Debtor is insolvent or the subject of any bankruptcy
case or insolvency proceeding of any kind; or
(e) the Account is not payable in Dollars or the Account Debtor is
either not incorporated under the laws of the United States of
America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia or is
located outside or has its principal place of business or

of credit reasonably satisfactory to the Agent (as to form,
substance and issuer) and assigned to and directly drawable by
the Agent; or

filings shall be in form, and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Agent; or
(g) the Account is supported by a security deposit (to the extent
received from the applicable Account Debtor), retainage or other
similar advance made by or for the benefit of the applicable
Account Debtor, in each case to the extent thereof; or
(h) (i) it is not subject to a valid and perfected first priority
Lien in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, subject to no other Liens other than the Liens (if any)
permitted by the Loan Documents or (ii) it does not otherwise
conform in all material respects to the representations and
warranties contained in the Loan Documents relating to Accounts;
or
(i) as to all or any part of such Account, a check, promissory note,
draft, trade acceptance or other instrument for the payment of
money has been received, presented for payment and returned
uncollected for any reason, or
(j) such Account was invoiced (i) in advance of services provided, or
(ii) twice, or (iii) the associated income has not been earned,

reciprocal compensation, as historically defined by the
Borrowers, or
(l) the Account Debtor (i) is a creditor of a Borrower, (ii) has or
has asserted a right of set-off against a Borrower or (iii) has
disputed its liability (whether by chargeback or otherwise) or
made any claim with respect to the Account or any other Account
of a Borrower which has not been resolved, in each case, without
duplication, to the extent of the amount owed by such Borrower to
the Account Debtor, the amount of such actual or asserted right
of set-off, or the amount of such dispute or claim, as the case
may be; or
(m) the Account Debtor is an Affiliate of the Borrowers.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Accounts of any single Account
Debtor and its Affiliates which, in the aggregate exceed 25% of the
total amount of all Eligible Accounts Receivable at the time of any
determination shall be deemed not to be Eligible Accounts Receivable
to the extent of such excess. In determining the aggregate amount of
Accounts from the same Account Debtor that are unpaid more than 90
days from the date of invoice or more than 60 days from the due date
pursuant to clause (b) above, there shall be excluded the amount of
any net credit balances relating to Accounts with invoice dates more

by a Borrower and has been consigned out, or (iii) is in transit
to or from, or held or stored by, third parties, or
(b) the relevant Borrower does not have good or marketable title as

foregoing in respect of such item, or
(c) such item is not subject to a valid and perfected, first priority
security interest in favor of the Agent, or
5
(d) such item is subject to any Lien whatsoever (other than the
security interest described in (c) above), or
(e) such item is not in working condition, or is otherwise defective.

that utilizes the current replacement cost of new equipment and
assumes an outright liquidation of the assets in which the assets will
remain in their present location and will continue to be optimally
employed.
"Replacement Cost Without Time-To-Market Value By Region" is
-------------------------------------------------------
calculated, based upon the most recent asset appraisal report, by a)
multiplying the estimated replacement cost per mile by region by the
number of miles in that region, divided by the sum of the products of

A/R for the applicable billing platform. (i) equals the sum of the contra,

deposits, and concentration cap A/R ineligibles for CBP and Access, (ii)
equals the sum of gross A/R for CBP and Access.
(b) Dilution ratio for the Access, UDP, Quickbooks, CBG, and Nikonet billing
platforms has been estimated by utilizing the dilution ratio calculated for
CBP for the 6 months ended December 31, 2000. The dilution ratio shall be
