GLOBAL BRIDGE NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

GLOBAL BRIDGE NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS GLOBAL BRIDGE NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of December 11, 2006, by and among Capital Growth Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Borrower” or “Company”), and the lenders (each individually a “Lender,” and collectively the “Lenders”) executing a counterpart copy of this Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Section 1 below.

WHEREAS, each of the Lenders intends to fund a bridge loan to Company (individually, a “Loan” and collectively, the “Loans”), which Loans are anticipated to be repaid from the proceeds of an equity financing by Borrower of not less than $7,000,000 (the “Pipe Financing”) as set forth below, together with the proceeds from additional debt financing for the Company. The proceeds of Loans shall be used for the acquisition of 100% of the capital stock of Global Capacity Group, Inc., a Texas corporation by way of merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company with Global Capacity Group, Inc. (and the successor corporation from such merger being hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Global”), with the capital stock of Global to be pledged as collateral security for the Loans; in addition, with the consent of the Majority Note holders, the principal amount of the Loans may be increased to fund additional working capital needs of the Company or Global. A copy of the merger agreement as amended effective November 30, 2006 for the acquisition of Global Capacity Group, Inc. has been provided to each of the Lenders.

WHEREAS, the Pipe Financing shall be structured as an issuance of Units comprised of Series AA Preferred Stock and warrants (the “Units Warrants”) to purchase Series AA Preferred Stock. The Series AA Preferred Stock shall automatically convert to Common Stock of the Company upon the amendment of its articles of incorporation to authorize the issuance of not less than 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The “Pipe Common Stock Price” shall be the Unit purchase price divided by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to Units purchasers on conversion of the Series AA Preferred Stock to Common Stock before giving effect to the Units Warrants. It is anticipated that he Pipe Common Stock Price shall be $0.45 per share, as specified in the November 14, 2006 private placement memorandum for the Units (“Memorandum”), a copy of which have been made available for review by each Lender (and which will be supplemented to reflect the terms of this Agreement);

WHEREAS, the Company has received a proposal dated November 21, 2006 from Hilco for the provision of a line of credit of up to $15,000,000, which the Company is considering (a copy of which has been made available for review by the prospective Lenders), and which may be modified or superseded by another proposal from Hilco or other prospective lenders; the Company has advised the Lenders that there can be no guarantees that the Company will be able to meet the conditions to the breaking of escrow with respect to the Memorandum. The Company has further advised the Lenders that Hilco is expected to deliver a term sheet for the proposed line of credit, which shall reduce the maximum availability under the line of credit to $12,000,000 and further will have certain holdback provisions with respect to the sums to be advanced in the event that loan transaction is consummated.

WHEREAS, the parties wish to provide for the sale and issuance of the Notes in return for the provision by the Lenders of the Consideration to the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and the collateral security set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

(a) “New Securities” shall mean any Common Stock or preferred stock of Company issued during the term of this Warrant, whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase said Common Stock or preferred stock, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible into said Common Stock or preferred stock (including but not limited to convertible debt or any other instrument exercisable for or convertible into Common Stock); provided, however, that “New Securities” does not include (i) any securities issued or issuable pursuant to any of the notes, options, warrants or other securities outstanding as of the date of the closing of the offering pursuant to the Memorandum, including all Offering Warrants; (ii) up to 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the stock option plan contemplated in the Memorandum; any stock option plan maintained by Company; or (iii) shares of Company's Common Stock issued in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, or recapitalization by Company.

(i) the sum of (w) the Purchase Price in effect before the issuance of such New Securities multiplied by the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock then issued and outstanding plus the number of shares of Company preferred stock then issued as converted into shares of Common Stock (including shares of common stock reserved pursuant to the issued Offering Warrants) immediately prior to the issuance of such New Securities and (x) the consideration, if any, received by or deemed to have been received by the Company on the issue of such New Securities by:

(e) The Company will not by reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, or otherwise, avoid or seek to avoid observance or performance of any of the terms of this Section 5, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out and performance of all provisions of this Section 5 in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment.

6. Adjustments to Number of Warrants and Conversion Price. The number and kind of Warrant Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the exercise price hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows:

(a) Splits and Subdivisions. In the event the Company should at any time or from time to time fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Series AA Preferred Stock (or following the Amendment, of the Common Stock) or the determination of the holders of Series AA Preferred Stock (or following the Amendment, of the Common Stock) entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Series AA Preferred Stock (or following the Amendment, of the Common Stock) or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Series AA Preferred Stock (hereinafter referred to as the “Series AA Preferred Stock Equivalents”) (or following the Amendment, of the Common Stock, with the entitlement for the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock, hereinafter referred to as the “Common Stock Equivalents”) without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Series AA Preferred Stock (or following the Amendment, of the Common Stock) or Series AA Preferred Stock Equivalents, (or following the Amendment, of the Common Stock Equivalents), then, as of such record date (or the date of such distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the Exercise Price shall be appropriately decreased and the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be appropriately increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding shares.

(b) Combination of Shares. If the number of shares of Series AA Preferred Stock (or following the Amendment, of the number of shares of Common Stock) outstanding at any time after the date hereof is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Series AA Preferred Stock (or following the Amendment, of the number of shares of Common Stock), the Exercise Price shall be appropriately increased and the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be appropriately decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

(c) Reclassification or Reorganization. If the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or

B-4

otherwise (other than a split, subdivision or stock dividend provided for in Section 6(a) above or a combination of shares provided for in Section 6(b) above, or a reorganization, merger or consolidation provided for in Section 6(d) below, then and in each such event the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change, to which a holder of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant would have received if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or other change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

(d) Merger or Consolidation. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a capital reclassification or reorganization of the Warrant Shares or a Corporate Transaction (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 6) of the Company, then as a part of such reorganization or Corporate Transaction, adequate provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, resulting from such reorganization, recapitalization or Corporate Transaction to which a holder of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant would have received if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such reorganization or Corporate Transaction. In any such case, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that the provisions of this Section 6(d) hereof will thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect any such Corporate Transaction unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such Corporate Transaction or the corporation purchasing or acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, at the last address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph 7(d) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, or Corporate Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event at least 30 days prior to the closing of the reorganization or Corporate Transaction the Company receives the written consent from holders of Offering Warrants outstanding which represent the right to purchase eighty-five percent (85%) of the shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Offering Warrants (the “Offering Warrant Majority”) that all Offering Warrants shall be cancelled effective as of the closing of the reorganization or Corporate Transaction, then provided the Company provides notice to the Holder of this Warrant at least 20 days prior to the closing of such reorganization or Corporate Transaction of such approval, then effective upon the closing of such reorganization or Corporate Transaction, this Warrant shall be cancelled.

(e) Notice of Record Dates; Adjustments. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Company shall provide to the Holder twenty (20) days advance written Notice of such Corporate Transaction. The Company shall promptly notify the Holder in writing of each adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price hereunder and the

B-5

number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. Such Notice shall state the adjustment or readjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which that adjustment or readjustment is based, as well as whether this Warrant will be cancelable as specified above.

7. Registration Rights. The Company hereby agrees that the Holder shall be entitled, with respect to all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or conversion of the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, to the registration rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, in the form included in the Memorandum, as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the terms of which are hereby incorporated by this reference, with the same force and effect as if specifically set forth herein. In addition, in the event that the Company has failed or expects to fail to register the shares of Common Stock underlying this Warrant by the Expiration Date, then the Expiration Date shall be automatically extended until delivery by the Company to the Warrant holder of a Notice of Warrant Extension, which notice may be delivered at any time on or after December 31, 2008, indicating the Company’s election to extend the Expiration Date until: (a) 365 days following the date of such Notice of Warrant Extension, if at the date of such notice an effective registration statement covering the resale of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant is in effect; or (b) until 365 days following the date of such Notice of Warrant Extension, if the Company states in the notice that it has elected to add the following cashless exercise provision to the Warrant, irrespective of whether the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant are registered or are anticipated to be registered:

(a) Upon execution of the cashless exercise of the shares subject to this Warrant (the “Converted Warrant Shares”), the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any exercise price or any cash or other consideration) that number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

X =	Y (A - B)
	A

Where:	X =	the number of shares of Warrant Shares to be delivered to the Holder;
	Y =	the number of Converted Warrant Shares;
	A =	the fair market value of one Warrant Share on the Conversion Date (as defined below); and
	B =	the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the Conversion Date).

(b) No fractional shares shall be issuable upon cashless exercise of the Warrant, and if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the Holder an

B-6

amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting fractional share on the Conversion Date (as defined below).

(i) Method of Exercise. The Holder may execute the cashless exercise by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with a written statement specifying that the Holder thereby intends to execute a cashless exercise and indicating the total number of shares under this Warrant that the Holder is exercising through the cashless exercise. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement, or on such later date as is specified therein (the “Conversion Date”). Certificates for the shares issuable upon execution of the cashless exercise shall be delivered to the Holder within three business days following the Conversion Date.

(ii) Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 7, fair market value of a Warrant Share on the Conversion Date shall be determined as follows:

(1) If the Common Stock is traded on a stock exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market (or a similar national quotation system), the fair market value of a Warrant Share shall be deemed to be the average of the closing selling prices of the Common Stock on the stock exchange or system determined by the Board to be the primary market for the Common Stock over the ten (10) trading day period ending on the date prior to the Conversion Date, as such prices are officially quoted in the composite tape of transactions on such exchange or system;

(2) If the Common Stock is traded over-the-counter, the fair market value of a Warrant Share shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices (or, if such information is available, the closing selling prices) of the Common Stock over the ten (10) trading day period ending on the date prior to the Conversion Date, as such prices are reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers through its NASDAQ system or any successor system; and

(3) If there is no public market for the Common Stock, then the fair market value of a Warrant Share shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, and, upon request of the Holder, the Board (or a representative thereof) shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than 15 days after such request, notify the Holder of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock.

8. Replacement of Warrants. On receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any

B-7

such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

9. No Rights or Liability as a Stockholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. No provisions hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder as a stockholder of the Company.

10. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant but will at all times carry out all such terms and take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment, subject to any amendment or waiver as permitted pursuant to Section 11(e).

11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Transfer of Warrant. The Holder agrees not to make any disposition of this Warrant, the Warrant Shares or any rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company. Any such permitted transfer must be made by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon delivery of this Warrant and the form of assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B to any such permitted transferee. As a condition precedent to such transfer, the transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Company. Subject to the foregoing, the provisions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon any successor to the Company and shall extend to any holder hereof.

(b) Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Warrant are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Warrant.

(c) Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given to a party pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be effective and deemed delivered to such party under this Warrant on the earliest of the following: (a) the date of personal delivery; (b) two (2) business days after transmission by facsimile, addressed to the other party at its facsimile number, with confirmation of transmission; (c) four (4) business days after deposit with a return receipt express courier for United States deliveries; or (d) five (5) business days after deposit in the United States mail by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) for United States deliveries. All notices not delivered personally or by facsimile will be sent with postage and/or other charges prepaid and properly addressed to such party at the address set forth on the signature page hereto, or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice to the other party hereto. Notices to the Company will be marked “Attention: Chief Financial Officer.”

(d) Attorneys’ Fees. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Warrant, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable

B-8

attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled.

(e) Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with the written consent of either: (i) the Holder and the Company; or (ii) the Offering Warrant Majority and the Company. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11(e) shall be binding upon the Holder of this Warrant (and of any securities into which this Warrant is convertible), each future holder of all such securities, and the Company.

(f) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Warrant are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Warrant and the balance of the Warrant shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

(g) Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles.

(h) Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

GLOBAL BRIDGE NOTE ADMINISTRATION AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

THIS GLOBAL BRIDGE NOTE ADMINISTRATION AND SECURITY AGREEMENT dated as of December 7, 2006, is by and between Capital Growth Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Company” or “Debtor”), Xxxxx Lies (or his successor in interest) in his capacity as Servicer hereunder (“Servicer”) and each holder of a Global Bridge Note (each a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes,” and the holder of each Note being a “Holder” and collectively, the “Holders”) issued pursuant to the form of Global Bridge Note Purchase Agreement dated as of December 7, 2006 (“Purchase Agreement”) between Debtor and the purchasers executing counterpart copies thereof.

RECITALS:

A. Company is in need of bridge financing to be funded by the Holders in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the proceeds of which will be used by Company in whole or part to fund its acquisition of 100% of the capital stock of Global Capacity Group, Inc., a Texas corporation by way of merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of Company with Global Capacity Group, Inc. (the successor entity to such merger being hereinafter referred to as “Global”), and the balance to fund the working capital needs of Company and/or Global. The obligations of Company with respect to the Purchase Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Obligations,” which shall be secured by the security interest granted herein in 100% of the capital stock of the date of acquisition of Global by the Company, and accordingly Company by execution hereof agrees, in order to induce the funding of the Purchase Agreement, to enter into this Agreement.

B. The parties desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions governing the Obligations and related transactions (the “Transactions”), and further to confirm acknowledgment that the Notes shall be secured by substantially the same Collateral, and be subject to administration as provided by the Servicer on behalf of all of the Holders pro rata in accordance with the Obligations. Servicer has agreed to act as collateral agent on behalf of all the Holders as set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and for the covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Recitals. The recitals set forth above are incorporated by reference herein and made a part herewith as if fully rewritten.

2. Loan to Debtor. Simultaneously with the execution of each counterpart to the Purchase Agreement, the Holder signing such counterpart shall loan the sum set forth below Holder’s signature on the signature page thereof for an amount agreed to between that Holder and Company, and with the sum set forth as to each Holder on the Purchase Agreement constituting that Holder’s “Loan” to the Company, and all of which are collectively referred to as the “Loans.”

C-1

3. Grant of Security Interest.

(a) As security for the Obligations, the Debtor hereby assigns to the Holders and grants to the Holders a continuing security interest in the following assets, whether now owned or hereafter existing or acquired by any of the Debtors (collectively, the “Collateral”): 100% of the capital stock (“Shares”) of Global and all proceeds therefrom and all dividends with respect thereto. Simultaneous with the execution hereof by Company, Company agrees to deliver to Servicer the stock certificate representing 100% of the capital stock of Global immediately upon the Company’s acquisition of Global, together with an assignment separate from certificate duly executed in blank. If Company now is or hereafter becomes entitled (with or without additional consideration) to other or additional securities related to the capital stock of Global as the result of any corporate reorganization, merger, consolidation, stock split, stock dividend, conversion, preemptive right, partnership action, distribution or otherwise, such additional securities shall constitute a portion of the Collateral and be subject to this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Shares are with respect to this Agreement. Company shall deliver to Servicer or its designees any certificates and assignments separate from certificate endorsed in blank with respect to all of the securities referenced in the preceding sentence.

(b) The security interest of each Holder under this Agreement extends to all Collateral of the kind which is the subject of this Agreement. By counterpart execution hereof, each Holder hereby appoints Servicer to act as his, her or its collateral agent with respect to the Collateral called for hereunder and with respect to the enforcement of the rights of the Holders as more fully set forth below, with any such action taken to be taken on behalf of all of the Holders on a pro rata basis based upon the percentage of total Obligations owing to each of the Holders from time to time (the percentage as to each Holder being the Holder’s “Ownership Percentage”). All references herein to “Servicer” shall include the Servicer named above or any successor person or entity appointed by written consent signed by Holders holding a majority of the outstanding unpaid principal with respect to the Notes from time to time (such majority in interest being the “Majority Holders” and each such successor being named by the Majority Holders hereinafter sometimes referred to as a “Successor Servicer”), and in the event the Servicer ceases to serve for any reason and there is no Successor Servicer, then all actions to be taken by Servicer on behalf of the Holders shall be valid if taken at the direction of the Majority Holders, which action shall be binding upon all of the Holders if taken by a duly appointed Servicer, Successor Servicer or the Majority Holders.

(c) Each Debtor hereby authorizes the Servicer on behalf of the Holders to file such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and such other public or private filings as the Servicer deems necessary and proper to evidence or perfect the Holders’ security interest in the Collateral, including but not limited to, such filings as the Servicer deems necessary and proper to file with the Office of the Florida Secretary of State. Debtor hereby grants to Servicer (and any successor Servicer as called for hereunder) an irrevocable power of attorney to execute any of the documents referenced in this Section 3(c) in the name, place and stead of Debtor, as Holder deems necessary and proper. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest.

C-2

4. Company Covenants. From and after the date hereof and so long as any amount remains unpaid on any of the Notes, except to the extent compliance in any case or cases is waived in writing by the Holder, Debtor hereby covenants and agrees with Servicer on behalf of each of the Holders as follows:

(a) Servicer and each Holder or their respective designees shall at all reasonable times have full access to, and the right to audit, check, inspect and make abstracts and copies from Debtor’s and Global’s books, records and audits. Servicer, each Holder and their respective designees shall keep all such information obtained from Debtor and Servicer confidential.

(b) Debtor will at any times and from time to time upon request of Servicer take or cause to be taken any action and execute, acknowledge, deliver or record any further documents, opinions, security agreements or other instruments which Servicer in his reasonable discretion deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to preserve, protect and perfect the security intended to be created and preserved in the Collateral and to establish, preserve and protect the security interest of Holders in and to the Collateral.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 3(d), above or as otherwise permitted by Servicer or by Holders by written consent of Majority Holders, Debtor shall not sell, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral or any of the assets of Global other than dispositions of inventory in the ordinary course of business.

5. Default. Any one of the following shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder:

(a) Company fails to make a payment when due under any Note;

(b) Company fails to timely perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Global Bridge Note Purchase Agreement;

(d) Debtor or Global suspends the operation of its business;

(e) Debtor or Global becomes the subject of state insolvency proceedings, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official is appointed for, or takes possession of any substantial part of the property of Debtor or Global; or

(f) Debtor or Global takes corporate action to authorize such organization to become the subject of proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or the execution by Debtor or Global of a petition to become a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code or the filing of any involuntary petition against Debtor or Global under the United States Bankruptcy Code which remains undismissed for a period of 30 days; or the entry of an order for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code against Debtor or Global.

C-3

(g) Whenever an Event of Default shall be existing hereunder, Servicer on behalf of Holders may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to any Holder under applicable law. Any notification of and intended disposition of any of the Collateral required by law shall be deemed reasonable if properly given at least ten (10) days before such disposition. Any proceeds of any disposition by Servicer on behalf of the Holders of the Collateral may be applied by Servicer to the payment of expenses in connection with the Collateral, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses of Servicer, and any balance of such proceeds may be applied by Servicer toward the payment of the Notes, pro rata among the Holders in accordance with the Ownership Percentages (i.e., the relative outstanding principal amounts of the varying Notes).

Debtor hereby appoints Servicer its true and lawful attorney, irrevocably, with full power after the occurrence of an Event of Default, to act, require, demand, receive, compound and give acquittance for any and all monies and claims for monies due or to become due to Debtor or Global under or arising out of the Collateral, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or take any actions or institute any proceedings which Servicer may deem to be necessary or advisable in the premises, which appointment as attorney is coupled with an interest.

6. Specific Rights and Obligations of Servicer.

(a) Appointment of Servicer. Holders appoint Servicer to act as their attorney in fact to take all actions to enforce the rights of the Holders under the Notes, including, without limitation, the institution of and prosecution of lawsuits and taking all other actions relating to the enforcement of the Holders’ rights. Servicer shall maintain a list of Holders outstanding from time, which Servicer shall append hereto in counterpart as Exhibit A.

(b) Default Under Notes. Upon Servicer’s receipt of notice from a Holder (which may be an Affiliate of Servicer) or from Company that Company has defaulted in its obligations under any of the Notes or this Agreement, which default is not timely cured, the Servicer shall promptly send written notice to each of the Holders of the Notes which describes the nature of the default. Such notice shall also include one or more possible courses of action to be pursued in connection with such default, which action may include but not be limited to any of the following: (i) extension of due date and/or payment date with respect to the Notes; (ii) release of Collateral; (iii) subordination of Notes; (iv) other modifications to Notes’ terms; and (v) conversion of Notes to equity. The Servicer shall take the action which is approved in writing by the Majority Holders; provided, however, the Servicer need not take any proposed action unless he receives from the Holders a sufficient advance payment (pro rata based on the principal balance of outstanding Notes) against prospective fees to render him comfortable in undertaking such action. Should any Holder not pay the Holder’s proportionate share of any Servicer fee assessment, then such Holder shall nonetheless be liable therefor (on a nonrecourse basis, to the extent of the value of the Holder’s Note) and further directs the Company and Servicer to deduct and pay over to the Servicer, together with interest at twelve percent (12%) per annum, such amount from the next proceeds payable to such Holder with respect to the Holder’s Note.

C-4

(c) Compensation of a Servicer. In consideration for performing his duties under this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay Servicer in the case of a default, a fee of equal to Servicer’s regular hourly rates which Servicer may charge for services plus reimbursement for all out-of-pocket costs including fees and expenses of attorneys and other associated professionals as may be retained by Servicer for purposes of providing its services. The Holders direct the Company and Servicer to deduct and pay over to Servicer and his associated service providers any amounts payable by the Holders from the first proceeds otherwise payable to each Holder to the extent such Holder has not advanced his pro rata share thereof to Servicer.

(d) Written Direction Upon Majority Holders. In carrying out its duties under this Agreement, the Servicer shall abide by the direction of the Majority Holders and not in number of the Holders. Unless the direction from the Majority Holders indicates otherwise, a direction to the Servicer to enforce the rights of the Holders under the Notes shall authorize the Servicer to pursue, or elect not to pursue, one or more remedies as the Servicer, in his sole discretion, shall determine. The Holders acknowledge that the Servicer and/or his affiliates may hold a majority-in-interest of the Notes individually or in concert with a minority of the remaining Holders, which may provide Servicer the ability to determine the cause of action in question. The parties further acknowledge that any net proceeds after costs and expenses that are realized with respect to collection of the Notes shall be allocated pro rata among all Holders based upon the outstanding sums due to them from time to time with respect to the Notes.

(e) Voting. All actions and votes of the Holders required or permitted under the terms of this Agreement or the Notes shall be conducted pursuant to either written consent by the Majority Holders or a vote per the following terms and provisions:

(i) The Holder of each Note shall have the right to cast the number of votes determined by dividing the outstanding principal balance of the Note of such Holder by 1,000.

(ii) All votes of the Holders shall be taken with or without a meeting, as determined by the Servicer. In connection with each vote (where written consent is not sought by Servicer), the Servicer shall provide each Holder the following:

(1) a ballot providing for each Holder to cast the Holders’ number of votes for or against each matter being voted upon;

(2) a statement that each Holder’s ballot must be received by the Servicer within fifteen (15) days from the date on which such ballots are deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, or otherwise delivered to the Holders; and

(3) an envelope self-addressed to the Servicer.

C-5

(iii) All ballots must be returned to the Servicer not later than the date indicated above. Ballots received after such fifteen (15) day period shall be considered void.

(iv) No later than ten (10) days after the date indicated on the ballot pursuant to Section 6(f)(2)(b) above the Servicer shall count the votes. All votes returned or received after the fifteen (15) day period shall not be counted. The Servicer shall, within ten (10) days after tallying the votes, notify the Holders of the outcome of said vote by written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if holders of a Majority-in-Interest of the Holders’ Notes approve a proposed course of action, the Servicer may take such action immediately and need not wait until subsequent votes are tallied.

(v) Should a deadline fall on a weekend or holiday, the applicable time period shall be extended to the end of the next business day.

7. Amendment to Notes, Security Agreement. In addition to the enforcement actions referenced above, each Holder agrees that the Majority Holders of the Notes shall have the right to act on behalf of each Holder:

(a) modify the terms of all the Notes, which modifications include but are not limited to extension of the due date of the Notes, modification of the interest called for thereunder or the conversion to equity of the Notes or any portion thereof;

(b) modify the term of the this Agreement, including coverage and for release of the Collateral therefor or modify the terms of the Purchase Agreement; and

(c) enter into such forms of subordination agreement or standstill agreement as the Servicer deems necessary and proper. By execution of this Agreement, each Holder grants to Servicer and his successors and assigns (each an “Attorney”) an irrevocable power of attorney to execute in such Holder’s name, place and stead any document said Attorney deems necessary and proper to carryout the purpose or intent of this Agreement or any actions contemplated hereunder, including but not limited to each of :

(i) any future amendments to the Notes, this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement;

(ii) any intercreditor agreement they deem necessary and proper;

(iii) any amendments to any of the foregoing; and

(iv) such form of UCC-3 amendment or termination to financing statement and such form of comparable document or notice filing and such form of debenture as necessary to perfect the Holder’s security interest in the Collateral.

10. Successors. Should Servicer wish to resign from its responsibilities hereunder, he may do so upon delivery of five (5) days’ prior notice to the parties hereto; in such event or should the Holders seek to elect a new party to assume Servicer’s obligations hereunder, they may do so upon approval in writing of the Majority Holders and delivery of notice to Servicer and to the Company, which shall promptly disseminate said notice to the other parties hereto.

11. Removal. The Majority Holders may remove the Servicer and/or replace the Servicer with a Substitute Servicer. Any such removal shall be effective only after ten (10) days’ prior written notice is provided to Servicer that the removal has been approved (or such shorter period of time as is mutually agreed by Servicer and the Holders).

12. General.

(a) Debtor agrees to pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses) paid or incurred by Servicer on behalf of the Holders in endeavoring to collect the Notes, and in enforcing this Agreement.
