WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, Licensor has entered into leases with landlords of premises,
each of whom has been made a party to the respective Co-Location Schedules
(each, a "Co-Location Schedule", a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
D) and Licensor is a tenant in the premises identified under the leases covering
the leasing of portions of office buildings located at certain sites ("Sites");
WHEREAS, Licensee wishes to operate its communications systems at the
Sites, and Licensor is willing to grant to Licensee a license to use a portion
of each Site for such purposes under the terms and conditions contained herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
hereinafter contained and for other good and valuable consideration, Licensor
and Licensee hereby agree as follows:
1. Use of Space. Licensor hereby grants to Licensee a license to use a
part of Licensor's premises at each Site (each, a "Space") to
accommodate the number of equipment cabinets or the square footage as
set forth in the Co-Location Schedules (the "License"). Licensor shall
designate the exact location of the Space, which location shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Licensee. Licensor will supply power of
the type and in the amount designated as set forth in Exhibit C. The
Space shall be used solely for the installation and operation of
telecommunications equipment which complies with National Electric Code
Standards and provides "telecommunications services" or "information
services" as those terms are defined in the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended, (the "Equipment") set forth in Exhibit A which may be
amended by Licensee at any time and from time to time, in connection
with Licensee's business. Licensee covenants and agrees that Licensee
shall not use the Space for any other purposes whatsoever unless
otherwise specifically authorized in writing by Licensor. Licensee's
use of the Space is to be conducted in accordance with all security
procedures adopted by Licensor, a copy of which shall have been
delivered to Licensee, provided that Licensor's security procedures
shall not in any way limit Licensee's access to the Space as set forth
in Section 3. Licensee acknowledges that the other licensees may use
parts of the Site (but not the Space) for collocation and other related
activities, but Licensee does not assume any liability for any act or
omission of such other licensees. Licensor may, at its option, upon at
least fifteen (15) days prior notice to Licensee, substitute for the
Space other space at any of the Sites set forth in the respective
Co-Location Schedules, provided that the substitute space contains
approximately an equal area of space and has substantially similar
configuration and is otherwise reasonably acceptable to Licensee. In
addition, the move shall be performed during off peak hours as Licensee
may designate in its sole discretion in order to avoid service
interruption of Licensee's business. Expenses for such move will be
borne by Licensor.
2. Prohibited Uses. Licensee shall not at any time use or allow any person
to use the Space or do or permit anything to be done or kept in or
about the Space that: (a) violates any certificate of occupancy in
force for such Site, provided a copy of such certificate has been
delivered to Licensee; (b) causes or is likely to cause damage to a
Site or the Space, any equipment, facilities or other systems therein;
(c) constitutes a material violation of any applicable law; (d)
violates a requirement or condition of the standard fire insurance
policy issued for office or data processing buildings at such Site,
provided a copy of such policy has been delivered to Licensee; or (e)
materially interferes with or disrupts the use or occupancy of any area
of a Site, other than a Space, by other lessees, licensees or occupants
of such other areas.
3. Services Provided. Licensor shall provide the support (collectively,
the "Services") for the Licensee's Equipment installed in the Space as

the Services set forth herein provided that the fees to be
paid for such additional services shall be mutually agreed
upon by Licensor and Licensee pursuant to a written amendment
of this Agreement.

Services as necessary for the reasons of mandate by applicable law, utility
stoppage beyond its control, or inspection and repair required to operate and
maintain the plumbing, mechanical and electrical systems of the Site. Licensor
shall provide a fifteen (15) day prior written notice to Licensee of any
scheduled inspections and repairs. Licensor agrees to minimize any interruption

interruption of the Services, unless such error, action, omission or
interruption constitutes or results from gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the other party. Neither party shall be liable for any

consent of Licensor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Licensor provides evidence in support of the lease continuing beyond such
30 day period within five (5) days after receipt of such notice, the

Licensor's written notice to Licensee of its failure to pay when due and
demand for the immediate payment thereof, Licensor may terminate the
License for the subject Space for which fees have not been paid. In the
event Licensee fails to perform or comply with any other provision of this
Agreement within twenty (20) days of Licensor's written notice to Licensee
of its failure to perform or comply with any other provision of this
Agreement, Licensor may terminate the License for the subject Space for
which nonperformance or noncompliance has occurred. If Licensee is unable
to cure within the prescribed twenty (20) days or if the nonperformance or
noncompliance is of a nature that cannot be cured within twenty (20) days,

ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND CONSENT AGREEMENT
ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND CONSENT AGREEMENT (this ("Agreement"),
dated as of June 20, 2000, by and among Fullnet Communications, Inc. an Oklahoma
Corporation (the "Licensor"), KMC TELECOM V, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
"Licensee"), and [TELECOM V INVESTOR TRUST 2000-A], a [ ] (the "Lessor").
WHEREAS, the Licensee has entered into certain agreements with
the Lessor (the "Financing Documents") pursuant to which the Lessor and certain
other financing parties have agreed to provide lease financing for the
acquisition of certain equipment (the "Equipment") to be used by the Licensee to
provide media gateway services (the "Services");
WHEREAS, in connection with the performance of the Services,
the Licensee and the Licensor have entered into the Master License Agreement,
dated as of June 20, 2000 (the "Master License Agreement"), pursuant to which
the Licensor has granted the Licensee a license to use a portion of certain
premises leased by it to accommodate a portion of the Equipment;
WHEREAS, in order to secure the Licensee's obligations under
the Financing Documents, the Licensee has agreed irrevocably to transfer and
assign for security purposes, and grant a first priority security interest in,
all of its right, title and interest in, to and under (among other things) the
Master License Agreement to the Lessor, pursuant to a security agreement (dated
on or about the date hereof) between the Licensee and the Lessor (the "Security
Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the consummation of
the lease financing under the Financing Documents that the Licensor shall have
executed and delivered this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions; Interpretation. Capitalized terms used in this
Agreement without definition shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto
in the Master License Agreement. In this Agreement, unless the context expressly
indicates otherwise, terms defined in the singular shall have the same meanings
when used in the plural and vice versa; references to any law (whether
statutory, administrative or otherwise) shall include all provisions amending,
replacing, succeeding or supplementing such law; references to agreements or
other contractual instruments shall include all amendments, modifications and
supplements thereto; and references to persons or entities shall include such
person's or entity's successors and assigns.
2. Undertakings Relating to the Financing. The Licensor hereby
acknowledges and agrees for the benefit of the Lessor that:
(a) Consent to Assignment. The Licensor irrevocably consents
to the transfer and assignment for security purposes of the Licensee's
right, title and interest in, and rights and obligations under, the
Master License Agreement to the Lessor pursuant to the Security
Agreement.
(b) Cure Rights. Upon receipt by the Licensor of written
notice from the Lessor that an event of default has occurred and is
continuing under the Financing Documents, the Lessor shall be entitled
to exercise any and all rights of the Licensee under the Master License
Agreement in accordance with its terms. Until such time as the Lessor
seeks to exercise remedies under the Security Agreement in respect of
the Master License Agreement and gives written notice as provided
herein, the Licensor shall continue to deal directly with the Licensee
with respect to its obligations to the Licensee under each of the
Master License Agreement. Upon receipt of written notice from the
Lessor that an event of default has occurred and is continuing under
the Financing Documents and that the Lessor is exercising rights of the
Licensee under the Master License Agreement, the Licensor shall deal
exclusively and directly with the Lessor or its designee(s) or
assignee(s), as the case may be, and not the Licensee.
The Licensor will not, without the prior written consent of
the Lessor, exercise any of its rights set forth in the Master License
Agreement to cancel or terminate, or suspend performance under, the
Master License Agreement due to the Licensee's breach of or failure to
perform any of its obligations under the Master License Agreement:
(1) with respect to a payment default, unless the
Licensor shall have delivered to the Lessor prior written
notice declaring its intention to terminate the Master License
Agreement as a result of a payment default beyond the cure
period provided in Section 18 of the Master License Agreement
and specifying the payment default giving rise thereto, and
before exercising any of its rights set forth in the Master
License Agreement shall have permitted the Lessor or their
designee(s) or assignee(s) an additional cure period of 30
days in which either (x) to cure any such payment default or
(y) to assume liability for the Master License Agreement
pursuant to Section 2(c) below; and
(2) with respect to any breach or default, other than
a payment default, unless the Licensor shall have delivered to
the Lessor prior written notice of its intent to exercise such
right, specifying the nature of the breach or default giving
rise to such right and before exercising any of its rights set
forth in the Master License Agreement shall have permitted the
Lessor or their designee(s) or assignee(s) an additional cure
period of 60 days in which either (x) to cure any such default
by remedying such breach or event or performing or causing to
be performed the obligation in default or (y) to assume
liability for the Master License Agreement pursuant to Section
2(c) below;
The cure periods set forth in this Agreement shall in no way
limit the Licensor's rights to interest on overdue amounts at the rate
and time provided for in the Master License Agreement, rights to claim
compensation for Licensee events of default or rights to cure any
failure of the Licensee and seek reimbursement therefor.
Except as otherwise expressly provided pursuant to this
Section 2, no curing of or attempt to cure any of the Licensee's
defaults under the Master License Agreement shall be construed as an
assumption by the Lessor of any obligations of the Licensee.
(c) Replacement of Current Licensee by Direct Assumption of
Liabilities. The Lessor or its designee(s) or assignee(s) may elect by
written notice delivered to the Licensor to assume liability for the
Licensee's obligations under the Master License Agreement; provided,
however, that the Lessor or its designee(s) or assignee(s) shall agree
to cure any existing payment default, and non-payment defaults which
are capable of cure by a party other than the Licensee, in each case
within the time periods set forth in subsection (b) above. Except as
set forth in the preceding sentence, the Lessor shall not be liable for
the performance or observance of any of the obligations or duties of
the Licensee under the Master License Agreement, and the assignment of
the Master License Agreement by the Licensee to the Lessor pursuant to
the Security Agreement shall not give rise to any duties or obligations
whatsoever on the part of the Lessor owing to the Licensor. In the
event that the Lessor assumes or is liable under the Master License
Agreement, liability in respect of any and all obligations of any such
person or entity under the Master License Agreement shall be limited
solely to such person's or entity's interest in the Equipment (and no
officer, director, employee, shareholder, affiliate or agent thereof
shall have any liability with respect thereto). In the event that there
are multiple designees or assignees of the Lessor, then each designee
or assignee shall be jointly and severally liable for the Licensee's
obligations under said Master License Agreement.
Upon the exercise by the Lessor of any of the remedies under
the Security Agreement in respect of the Master License Agreement, the
Lessor may assign its rights and interests and the rights and interests
of the Licensee under the Master License Agreement to any person or
entity pursuant to a form of assignment and assumption agreement
reasonably satisfactory to the Licensor, if such person or entity shall
assume liability for all past and future obligations of the Licensee
under the Master License Agreement. Upon such assignment and
assumption, the Lessor shall be relieved of all obligations under the
Master License Agreement assumed pursuant to the preceding paragraph.
(d) Changes to Master License Agreement. The Licensor will
not, without the prior written consent of the Lessor:
(i) consent to or accept any cancellation, termination or
suspension of the Master License Agreement by the Licensee;
(ii) amend, supplement or otherwise modify any provision of
the Master License Agreement (as in effect on the date
hereof); or
(iii) sell, assign, delegate or otherwise dispose of (by
operation of law or otherwise) any part of its interest in the
Master License Agreement.
(e) Replacement of Master License Agreement in Bankruptcy. In
the event that (i) the Master License Agreement is rejected by a
trustee, liquidator, debtor-in-possession or similar person or entity
in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding involving the
Licensee, or (ii) the Master License Agreement is terminated as a
result of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding involving
the Licensee and, if within 90 days after such rejection or
termination, the Lessor or its designee(s) or assignee(s) shall so
request, the Licensor will execute and deliver to the Lessor or such
designee(s) or assignee(s) a new Master License Agreement which shall
be for the balance of the remaining term under the original Master
License Agreement before giving effect to such rejection or termination
and shall contain the same conditions, agreements, terms, provisions
and limitations as the original Master License Agreement (except for
any requirements which have been fulfilled by the Licensee and the
Licensor prior to such rejection or termination); provided that the
Lessor or such designee(s) or assignee(s) (i) shall have cured any
existing payment default, and non-payment defaults which are capable of
cure by a party other than the Licensee, in each case within the 90 day
time period set forth above, and (ii) shall execute and deliver the new
Master License Agreement. References in this Agreement to an "Master
License Agreement" shall be deemed also to refer to the new Master
License Agreement in replacement thereof.
(f) Liabilities Limited to Master License Agreement. In
connection with any cure pursuant to this Section 2 of the Licensee's
default(s) under the Master License Agreement or any assumption
pursuant to this Section 2 by any person of the Licensee's liabilities
thereunder, only those obligations and liabilities arising expressly
under the Master License Agreement shall be required to be cured or
assumed, as the case may be.
3. Miscellaneous.
(a) No failure or delay on the part of the Licensor, the
Licensee or the Lessor or any agent or designee of any of the foregoing to
exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
(b) The remedies of the Lessor, its designee(s) and/or
assignee(s) and the Licensor provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of
any remedies provided by law.
(c) Any notice, request, proposal for changes or
correspondence required or permitted under the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall be in writing and (i) delivered personally, (ii) transmitted by
facsimile and either (x) recipient acknowledges receipt to sender or (y) sender
is able to deliver to recipient a transmission confirmation, or (iii) sent by an
internationally recognized overnight mail or courier service, with delivery
receipt requested, to the following addresses:
