FINANCIAL INFORMATION

|Item 1. | Consolidated Financial Statements
|------- | ---------------------------------

See attached.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This report contains certain forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
statements are based on managements current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Investors are
cautioned that there can be no assurance that actual results or business conditions will not differ materially from those projected or suggested in such forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those
discussed below. As a result, our future operations involve a high degree of risk. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The Companys operations and ability to grow may be affected by numerous factors, including: the state of the telecommunications industry; the difficulty inherent in operating an early-stage
company in a new and rapidly evolving market; its history of operating losses and cash flow deficits; its limited financial resources and uncertainty as to the availability of additional capital to fund its operations on acceptable terms, if at all;
its success in maintaining carrier hotel lease agreements and license agreements with building owners and in obtaining additional agreements; the financial difficulties and instability that its customers and vendors are experiencing; the lack of
growth in demand for its services or the failure to manage the growth of its operations; the frequency of service interruptions on its networks and the scalability and reliability of its networks; the potential occurrence of a natural disaster of
act of terrorism that could impact its networks; the potential loss of key personnel, information support systems or key software licenses; the potential for litigation from stockholders, customers, vendors or other third parties; continued pricing
pressure and price competition for its services; the potential development by competitors of competing products and technologies; restrictions imposed on it as a result of its debt; and changes in the regulatory environment. The failure of the
Company to achieve certain operational results would violate certain debt covenants thereby potentially accelerating the outstanding balance for immediate payment.

Overview

We deploy, own and operate fiber-optic networks designed to provide comprehensive broadband connectivity to other telecommunications service providers for their data, voice and video transmissions. Our networks
provide an advanced, high-bandwidth, fiber-optic solution to support the demand for network capacity and to facilitate the interconnection of multiple carriers networks. Our primary business is to provide optical and electrical broadband
circuits within and between carrier hotels, which are industrial buildings where service providers house their communications equipment to exchange and route communications traffic. Our networks support multiple domestic and international
transmission protocols, including synchronous optical network, or SONET, synchronous digital hierarchy, or SDH, Ethernet, and Internet Protocol, or IP, and can deliver broadband connections with bandwidth ranging from 1.5 megabits per second to 10.0
gigabits per second, as well as optical wavelengths. We are currently operating primarily in the two gateway markets of New York and Los Angeles, focusing our services in the local loop of major metropolitan areas.

We have experienced significant operating losses, net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities. We expect to continue to experience such losses as we continue to operate our business. We also have a limited
operating history. Consequently, prospective investors have limited operating history and financial data upon which to evaluate our performance.

The telecommunications industry is currently
experiencing a period of uncertainty and rationalization. Many companies in our industry are in financial distress, and some of our largest customers have filed for bankruptcy. We have been negatively impacted by the general economic environment and
by the difficulties that are impacting our industry. Most significantly, customer contracts and services have been cancelled, resulting in a loss of recurring revenues to us. We are unable to determine the extent to which additional contracts or
services that we provide to our customers will be cancelled, and we cannot forecast our ability to replace those cancelled contracts with new contracts. As a result, our revenues, business operations and liquidity may continue to be negatively
affected by the market environment.

Revenues.    We generate revenues from selling network capacity and related services to other telecommunications service providers.
Revenues are derived from three general types of services:

| | Transport services.    Our transport services include the offering of broadband circuits on our metropolitan transport networks and FiberNet
in-building networks, or FINs. Over our metropolitan transport networks, we can provision circuits from one of our carrier hotel facilities to another carrier hotel facility or to an on-net building via an interconnection with our FIN in that
building. We can also provision circuits vertically between floors in a carrier hotel facility or an on-net building. In 2003, we also initiated a new type of transport service offering to provide our customers with circuits on networks that we do
not own. We intend to sell this connectivity to our customers and purchase the underlying circuits from other wholesale telecommunications carriers. With this new initiative, we believe that we can better serve the broader network capacity needs of
our customers than we are currently able to on our own networks.

| | Colocation services.    Our colocation services include providing customers with the ability to locate their communications and networking equipment
at our carrier hotel facilities in a secure technical operating environment. We can also provide our customers with colocation services in the central equipment rooms of certain of our on-net and off-net buildings.

| | Communications access management services.   Our access management services include providing our customers with the non-exclusive right to market and provide their
retail services to tenants in our on-net and off-net buildings. Customers typically enter into an agreement with us to gain access to all or a significant number of our properties. For certain of our on-net and off-net buildings, we have the
exclusive right to manage communications access. Once a customer has entered into an agreement with us for access services, we typically require that customer to utilize our in-building networking infrastructure for connectivity to its retail
customers, if such networking infrastructure is available.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

Our revenues are generated on a monthly recurring basis under contracts with our customers. The terms of these
contracts can range from month-to-month to fifteen years in length. We continue to experience a trend of entering into shorter-term contracts with our customers. Previously, our customers typically entered into contracts with terms of three to five
years. Increasingly, our customers are electing to purchase services on a month-to-month basis or for a period of only one year.

Our services are typically sold under fixed price agreements. In
the case of transport services, we provide an optical circuit or other means of connectivity for a fixed price. Revenues from transport services are not dependent on customer usage or the distance between the origination point and termination point
of a circuit. The pricing of colocation services is based upon the size of the colocation space or the number of colocation units, such as cabinets, provided to the customer. Revenues from access management services are typically determined by the
square footage of the commercial office properties to which a customer purchases access. The pricing of all of our services have declined significantly over the past year, although we believe not to the extent that the pricing in other segments of
the telecommunications market has declined.

The growth of our revenues is dependent upon our ability to provide additional services in our existing facilities. We also believe that the majority of
the growth in our revenues will come from our existing customers. Consequently, our growth in revenues is dependent on the underlying growth of our customers businesses and their need for our services within the facilities that we already
operate. We continue to add additional customers, particularly internationally based carriers. However, we believe the number of companies that are potential customers is decreasing, due to the industry environment. In addition, we currently do not
anticipate expanding our network infrastructure to other carrier hotel facilities or on-net buildings and off-net buildings. Within each of our existing facilities, our revenues will depend upon the demand for our services, the competition that we
face and our customer service.

We typically begin our sales cycle by entering into a telecommunications services agreement. This document outlines the engineering specifications and operating
standards that are required of us by the customer. Customers can order a specific circuit or colocation space, or, alternatively, they can purchase general availability on our networks or in our facilities by establishing minimum revenue commitments
on a recurring basis.

During the past year, customers have primarily purchased services from us only on an as-needed basis, when their networks requirements mandate an immediate need for
additional services. They have not elected to purchase general availability on our networks, nor have they purchased services on a speculative basis. We have also experienced significant disconnections of services, as customers groom their networks
to eliminate excess capacity. This loss of revenues has had a significantly negative impact on our financial results and may continue.

Currently our colocation and access services produce less
than one-third of our revenues. In the future we anticipate generating significantly more of our revenues from transport services than from colocation or access management services. The scalability of our network architecture allows us to increase
transport capacity to a greater degree than is possible with our colocation and access services.

Cost of Services.    Cost of services is associated with the operation
of our networks and facilities. The largest component of our cost of services is the occupancy expenses at our carrier hotel facilities, on-net buildings and off-net buildings. Other specific costs include maintenance and repair costs and utility
costs. Our license agreements for our on-net and off-net buildings require us to pay license

fees to the owners of these properties. In addition, our leases at 60 Hudson Street in New York City also require us to pay license fees. These license fees typically are
calculated as a percentage of the revenues that we generate in each particular building. Other than our license fees, our cost of services is generally fixed in nature. We do not anticipate that cost of services will change commensurately with any
change in our revenues. Since we began providing off-net transport services, our cost of services also include the costs that we incur by purchasing connectivity from other wholesale, telecommunications carriers to provide our customers with
transport services that are not on our networks.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.    Selling, general and administrative expenses generally include all of
our personnel costs, occupancy costs for our corporate offices, insurance costs, professional fees, sales and marketing expenses and other miscellaneous expenses. Personnel costs, including wages, benefits and sales commissions, are our largest
component of selling, general and administrative expenses. We have reduced the number of our employees from 82 as of June 30, 2002 to 76 as of June 30, 2003, and our personnel costs have decreased significantly. Prospectively, we do not anticipate
significant changes in headcount, and we believe that our personnel costs will increase moderately. Other costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses may increase due to changes in the economic environment and telecommunications
industry.

Stock Related Expense.    Stock related expense relates to the granting of stock options to our employees. We make equity grants to our employees in order to
attract, retain and incentivize qualified personnel. These costs are non-cash charges that are amortized over the vesting term of each employees equity agreement. Certain options granted to employees are accounted for using variable plan
accounting. Under variable plan accounting, the stock related expense is adjusted for changes in the market price of the underlying common stock.

In December 2000, we repriced stock options for
certain of our executive officers, resulting in variable plan accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Financial Interpretation Number (FIN) No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock Compensation, from the date of modification. The additional intrinsic value was determined on the date of modification using the then market price of the common stock. The additional compensation cost was recognized over the period from the
date of modification to the date the awards vest. The additional compensation cost has been adjusted in subsequent periods for changes in the market price. After the awards vested, adjustments to compensation cost for changes in the market price
were recognized immediately. In subsequent periods, the market price declined, resulting in negative compensation cost being recognized. In accordance with FIN No. 44, illustration 3(g), income (negative expense) has been recognized up to the amount
of expense previously recognized in prior periods relating specifically to the modified awards.

Depreciation and Amortization.    Depreciation and amortization expense
includes the depreciation of our network equipment and infrastructure, computer hardware and software, furniture and fixtures, and leasehold improvements, as well as the amortization of certain deferred charges. We commence the depreciation of
network related fixed assets when they are placed into service and depreciate those assets over periods ranging from three to 20 years. As a result of the impairments of fixed assets that we recorded during 2002 and 2001, depreciation and
amortization expense may decrease going forward.

Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in
Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results from operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and
related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate the estimates that we have made. These estimates have been based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe our most critical accounting policies include revenue recognition, an allowance for doubtful accounts, the impairment of
long-lived assets, including goodwill, and the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

We recognize revenues when earned as services are provided throughout the life of each contract
with a customer. The majority of our revenues are invoiced on a monthly recurring basis under contracts, typically one year in length. We record deferred revenue for the amount of an invoice that has not been earned.

We have one reciprocal agreement, whereby we purchase services from one of our customers. At the beginning of 2002 we had two such reciprocal agreements, but one was terminated during the year. The services provided and
obtained through these agreements were priced at fair value as of the date of the agreement. We recognized the transport and colocation revenues from these agreements in accordance with our stated revenue recognition policy, and we concurrently
recorded the expenses for colocation services as cost of services in our statements of operations. None of the expenses associated with our reciprocal agreements is capitalized. All of the costs are expensed as incurred. For the six months ended
June 30, 2003, reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.2 million, or 1.9%, of revenues and $0.2 million of our cost of services. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.5 million, or 4.0%, of revenues and $0.6
million of our cost of services. For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.1 million, or 1.9%, of revenues and $0.1 million of our cost of services. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002,

reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.1 million, or 1.9%, of revenues and $0.1 million of our cost of services.

We
continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain allowances for doubtful accounts based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. While such credit losses have
historically been within our expectations, there can be no assurance that we will continue to experience the same level of credit losses that we have in the past. A significant number of our customers have filed for bankruptcy or are otherwise in
significant financial distress. A significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers, in particular, or a further deterioration in the economic environment or telecommunications industry, in general, could have a
material adverse impact on the collectability of our accounts receivable and our future operating results, including a reduction in future revenues and additional allowances for doubtful accounts. If we determine that collection of a receivable is
not reasonably assured, we defer the revenue and recognize it at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of payment.

We assess the fair value and
recoverability of our long-lived assets whenever events and circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In doing so, we make
assumptions and estimates regarding future cash flows and other factors to make our determination. The fair value of our long-lived assets is dependent upon the forecasted performance of our business, changes in the telecommunications industry and
the overall economic environment. When we determine that the carrying value of our long-lived assets may not be recoverable, we measure any impairment based upon a forecasted discounted cash flow method. If these forecasts are not met, we may have
to record additional impairment charges not previously recognized.

During 2002, we recovered approximately $0.3 million from the sale of assets previously written off as impaired during 2001. The
proceeds were recorded as a recovery of the impairment that was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2001.  Also during 2002, we recorded a write-off of property, plant and equipment of $0.7 million. We recorded this write-off of capital
assets due to the termination of several leases and license agreements for network facilities. There was no cost to us to abandon these assets, nor do we expect to receive any proceeds or other consideration from the abandonment of these assets.

During 2002, we determined that our forecasts for revenues at certain facilities would not be achieved due to the ongoing difficulties in the overall business climate and the continued
deterioration of the telecommunications industry. The dramatic change in the operating environment for our industry has resulted in significantly less demand for our services in these facilities, and we also determined that a rebound in demand for
our services would not occur in the near term. In fact, we concluded that the prospects for the industry, and our business in particular, were worse than we had forecasted in 2001, because the economy had not rebounded as expected and many
significant telecommunications business failures occurred in 2002. As a result, we revised our business plan and conducted extensive reviews of our assets and operations. The revisions to the business plan primarily included further reductions in
forecasts of revenues and capital expenditures. The projected amounts of certain cost of services and overhead expenses were reduced as well to reflect the decrease in our expected business activity. We also determined that certain financial
covenants in our credit facility would need to reflect the revised business plan, including our reduced revenue forecasts. Consequently, we amended our credit facility in October 2002.

We used an
undiscounted forecasted cash flow model to determine if there was an impairment based on the cash flows expected to be generated from the assets related to these facilities, and used a discounted cash flow model to measure the impairment. As a
result of this analysis, we recorded an asset impairment of approximately $12.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2002, based on the amount by which the carrying amount of these assets exceeded their fair value.

We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly review our deferred tax assets for
recoverability and establish a valuation allowance based upon historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. As a result of this review, we have established a full
valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.

Results of Operations

Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Six Months
Ended June 30, 2002

Revenues.   Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $12.8 million compared to $13.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002,
a decrease of $0.6 million. We generated revenues by providing transport, colocation and communications access management services to our customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, we recognized $8.5 million in transport services, $3.0
million in colocation and other services and $1.3 million in communications access management services. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, we recognized $8.4 million in transport services, $2.9 million in colocation and other services and $2.1
million in communications access management services.

The decrease in revenues was partially due to the elimination of certain reciprocal agreements that were terminated during the first quarter
of 2002. Reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.2 million, or 1.9%, of our revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2003, down from $0.5 million, or 4.0%, of our revenues for the first six months of 2002. The remaining decrease in revenues was due
to the

loss of access management services revenues of approximately $0.8 million due to the cancellation of contracts by certain customers that filed for bankruptcy and the
cancellation of certain license agreements.

Cost of Services.   Cost of services for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 were $4.1 and $3.5 million,
respectively. The increase of $0.6 million was primarily due to a non-recurring savings that we recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2002.  We negotiated certain non-recurring concessions from vendors in the amount of $0.7 million, which
reduced cost of services for the six months ended June 30, 2002.  These items were expensed in prior periods and included in our cost of services.  Additionally, license fees and utilities associated with our network facilities have
increased.  The increase of license fees and utilities was partially offset by the elimination of certain reciprocal agreements during 2002.  These costs included on-net building license fees, maintenance and repair costs, rent expense at
carrier hotel facilities and on-net and off-net buildings, and related utility costs. Reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.2 million of our cost of services in the first six months of 2003 and $0.6 million for the same period in 2002.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $7.4 million compared to $8.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease is a result of our aggressive cost savings initiatives to reduce corporate overhead in line with our outlook for business activity. Cost reductions were realized in nearly all components
of selling, general and administrative expenses, including advertising and marketing costs, professional fees and travel and entertainment expenses. Decreases in overhead came in personnel costs, as we reduced headcount from 82 employees as of June
30, 2002 to 76 employees as of June 30, 2003. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2002, we recorded $0.5 million in bad debt expense.  There were no bad debt expenses recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Stock Related Expense.   Stock related expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $0.1 million. This non-cash expense relates to the amortization of deferred compensation expense from
granting stock options to our employees. There was no stock related expense recorded in the first six months of 2003.

Write-off of Property, Plant and Equipment.During the six months
ended June 30, 2002, we recorded a write-off of property, plant and equipment of $0.7 million. We recorded this write-off of capital assets due to the termination of several property leases and license agreements for network facilities. There was no
cost to us to abandon these assets, nor do we expect to receive any proceeds or other consideration from the abandonment of these assets. We recorded no other reserves, accruals or other liabilities related to this write-off. During the six months
ended June 30, 2003, we did not record a write-off of property, plant and equipment.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt.   In the first six months of 2003, we recorded a
non-cash charge of $9.7 million related to the partial extinguishment of our credit facility on January 10, 2003. We recorded a loss for the fair value given in excess of the amount of debt extinguished and related pro-rata write-off of original
issue discount and deferred financing charges. The fair value given in exchange for $13.4 million in long term debt was 4.6 million shares of common stock, the issuance of 2.2 million warrants with an exercise price of $3.60 and the re-pricing of
3.0 million existing warrants from $3.60 to $0.03. Also included in this loss is $1.0 million in fees associated with the consummation of the recapitalization. As this extinguishment of debt represented approximately 38.1% of our outstanding
balance, we wrote-off the same percentage of deferred financing charges and original issue discount of $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively, which is also included in our calculation of loss on early extinguishment of debt.

On March 17, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to terminate all of its capital lease obligations for a payment of $85,000. This termination of its capital lease obligations resulted in a gain on early
extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.8 million, recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2003. This amount partially offset the loss on early extinguishments of debt, described above. There was no loss on early extinguishments of debt
recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Depreciation and Amortization.   Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was
$4.4 million compared to $5.2 million of depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease resulted from a reduction in the fixed assets base due to an impairment of property, plant and equipment that we
recorded in 2002.

Interest Expense, Net.   Interest expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $1.2 million compared to $4.3 million, net for the six
months ended June 30, 2002. Interest expense was generated as a result of borrowings under our senior secured credit facility and our outstanding capital lease obligations and was lower as a result of the reduced amount of our indebtedness from our
recapitalization transactions and lower interest rates.

Preferred Stock Dividends.   For the six months ended June 30, 2002, we paid approximately $31,000 in non-cash
dividends on our Series H preferred stock, payable in the form of additional shares of preferred stock, based on the closing price per share at the end of the period. All outstanding preferred stock was converted into common stock as part of our
recapitalization during the fourth quarter of 2002, and as a result there were no preferred stock dividends recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Net Loss Applicable to Common
Stockholders.   We reported a net loss applicable to common stockholders of $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to a net loss of $8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase is a
result

##### Table of Contents

of the aforementioned changes in our operations and non-recurring charges recorded in the first quarter of 2003 of $9.0 million related to early extinguishments of debt.
This increase was also offset in part by a decrease in interest expense from our recapitalization transactions, and a decrease in depreciation expense due to write-offs in 2002.

Three Months
Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2002

Revenues.   Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $6.5 million compared to $6.4
for the three months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $0.1 million. We generated revenues by providing transport, colocation and communications access management services to our customers. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, we
recognized $4.3 million in transport services, $1.5 million in colocation and other services and $0.7 million in communications access management services. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, we recognized $4.0 million in transport services,
$1.3 million in colocation and other services and $1.1 million in communications access management services.

The increase in revenues was due to additional transport and colocation revenues, as
we provide additional services to our existing customers and broaden our customer base to include many international carriers.  The increase was partially offset by decreases in access revenue due to the elimination of certain license
agreements that were terminated during the second quarter of 2002 and the termination of services due to the bankruptcies of certain customers. Reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.1 million, or 1.9%, of our revenues in the second quarter of 2003,
compared to $0.1 million, or 1.9%, of our revenues for the second quarter of 2002.

Cost of Services.   Cost of services for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and June
30, 2002 were $2.0 and $1.1 million, respectively.  The increase of $0.9 million was primarily due to a non-recurring savings that we recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2002.  We negotiated certain non-recurring concessions from
vendors in the amount of $0.7 million, which reduced cost of services for the six months ended June 30, 2002.  These items were expensed in prior periods and included in our cost of services.  Additionally, license fees and utilities
associated with our network facilities have increased. Reciprocal agreements accounted for $0.1 million of our cost of services in the second quarter of 2003 and $0.1 million of our cost of services in the second quarter of 2002.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $3.7 million compared to $4.0 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease is a result of our aggressive cost savings initiatives to reduce corporate overhead in line with our current business activity. Cost reductions were realized in nearly all components of selling, general
and administrative expenses, including advertising and marketing costs, professional fees and travel and entertainment expenses. Decrease in overhead came in personnel costs, as we reduced headcount from 82 employees as of June 30, 2002 to 76
employees as of June 30, 2003.  Also during the quarter ended June 30, 2002 we recorded $0.4 million in bad debt expense, and there were no bad debt expenses recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2003.

Stock Related Expense.   Stock related expense for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was $0.1 million. This non-cash expense relates to the amortization of deferred compensation expense from granting
stock options to our employees. There was no stock related expense recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.

Write-off of Property, Plant and Equipment.   During the
three months ended June 30, 2002, we recorded a write-off of property, plant and equipment of $0.7 million. We recorded this write-off of capital assets due to the termination of several property leases and license agreements for network facilities.
There was no cost to us to abandon these assets, nor do we expect to receive any proceeds or other consideration from the abandonment of these assets. We recorded no other reserves, accruals or other liabilities related to this write-off. During the
three months ended June 30, 2003, we did not record a write-off of property, plant and equipment.

Depreciation and Amortization.   Depreciation and amortization expense for
the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $2.2 million compared to $2.6 million of depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease resulted from the impairment of property, plant and equipment that we
recorded in 2002.

Interest Expense, Net.   Interest expense, net for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $0.5 million compared to $2.1 million, net for the three
months ended June 30, 2002. Interest expense was generated as a result of borrowings under our senior secured credit facility and our outstanding capital lease obligations and was lower as a result of reduced amount of our indebtedness from our
recapitalization transactions and lower interest rates.

Preferred Stock Dividends.   For the three months ended June 30, 2002, we recorded approximately $3,000 in non-cash
dividends on our series H preferred stock, and paid approximately $31,000 in the form of additional shares of preferred stock, based on the closing price per share at the end of the period. All outstanding preferred stock was converted into common
stock as part of our recapitalization during the fourth quarter of 2002, and as a result there were no preferred stock dividends recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2003.

Net Loss
Applicable to Common Stockholders.   We reported a net loss applicable to common stockholders of $2.0 million for the

8

##### Table of Contents

three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to a loss of $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002. The decrease is a result of reduction of interest expense due to
the reduced amount of our indebtedness from our recapitalization. In addition, we recorded write-off of property, plant and equipment of $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2002.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations through direct equity investments from our stockholders, the issuance of additional debt and
equity securities in private transactions and by arranging a senior secured credit facility with a group of lenders. We incurred a loss from operations and a net loss applicable to common stockholders for the first six months of 2003 of $12.0
million and $13.2 million, respectively, compared to a loss from operations and a net loss applicable to common stockholders $4.4 million and $8.7 million, respectively, for the first half of 2002. During the first half of 2003, cash provided by
operating activities was $1.5 million, and cash purchases of property, plant and equipment were $1.1 million, compared to cash used to fund operations of $2.8 million and $1.8 million for cash purchases of property, plant and equipment for the first
half of 2002.

During the six months ended June 30, 2003, we received $2.3 million in net cash proceeds from financing activities, primarily in connection with our recapitalization on January 10,
2003. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, we received $2.4 million in net cash proceeds from financing activities. Proceeds from the issuance of equity securities during the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $3.5 million, of which $2.3
million is restricted cash used to cash collateralize outstanding letters of credit. On January 10, 2003, we issued 4,617,151 shares of our common stock to certain lenders at a price of $3.00 per share in satisfaction of approximately $13.4 million
of indebtedness, and we issued 972,222 shares of our common stock to certain investors at a price of $3.60 per share. These transactions are further described below.

On January 10, 2003, we
completed a series of transactions with the lenders under our credit facility. Pursuant to the terms of three debt exchange agreements between us and each of Bank One, N.A., Nortel Networks Inc. and TD Securities (USA) Inc., we issued 4,617,151
shares of our common stock to these lenders at a price of $3.00 per share, in satisfaction of approximately $13.4 million of indebtedness, representing all of the outstanding principal indebtedness and accrued interest owing to these lenders under
our credit facility.

We also entered into a common stock purchase agreement, dated as of January 10, 2003, with certain investors, pursuant to which we issued to the investors in a private
offering an aggregate of 972,222 shares of common stock for a price of $3.60 per share, for an aggregate cash consideration of $3.5 million. Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, we also issued to such investors warrants to purchase an
additional 1,895,652 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.60 per share with a term of five years. Concurrently with the other transactions occurring on January 10, 2003, the investors also purchased 9,820,061 shares of common stock from
the three lenders departing from the credit facility in a privately negotiated transaction for an aggregate cash consideration of $9.0 million.

In connection with the purchase agreement with the
investors, we entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of January 10, 2003, with the investors which required us to file a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the registration of
all of the shares of common stock issued under the purchase agreement and the shares that the investors purchased from the departing lenders. These shares were included in the registration statement that was declared effective on February 20,
2003.

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the debt exchange agreements, we executed a ninth amendment to our credit agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the rights and
obligations of the departing lenders under the credit facility terminated, subject to standard reinstatement and survival provisions. As a condition to the lenders entering into this amendment, we agreed to reduce the exercise price of certain
warrants previously issued to and held by the lenders to purchase approximately 2,544,974 shares of common stock from $3.60 per share to $0.03 per share. All of the repriced warrants were immediately exercised by the lenders. In addition pursuant to
a security agreement and a securities account control agreement, we agreed to deposit approximately $2.3 million in a restricted account as cash collateral to secure the assumption by Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch of the departing lenders
funding obligations for our outstanding letters of credit, which totaled approximately $6.1 million.

As of June 30, 2003, we have $22.4 million of indebtedness outstanding under our credit
facility, which reflects the total amount available under the credit facility. The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding borrowings under the facility is 4.78%, and we were in full compliance with all of the covenants contained in the
credit agreement underlying the facility as of June 30, 2003. Non-compliance with any of the covenants, requirements, or other terms and conditions under the credit agreement constitutes an event of default and potentially accelerates the
outstanding balance of the credit facility for immediate payment.

On March 17, 2003, we entered into an agreement to terminate all of our capital lease obligations for a payment of $85,000. This
termination of our capital lease obligations resulted in a gain on early extinguishments of debt of approximately $0.8 million, recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2003.

##### Table of Contents

On June 13, 2003, we executed the loan documentation necessary to establish a subordinated credit facility to provide the funding for the purchase of up to $3.0 million of our
common stock, under a stock repurchase program.  Repurchases may be made from time to time until December 31, 2003 through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades or otherwise. Repurchases are subject to the
availability of stock, prevailing market conditions, trading price of the stock and our financial performance. The repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares and may be discontinued or suspended at any time. Any
shares repurchased in the program will be treated as shares of common stock held in treasury. All purchases will be made in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.

In addition, we amended our senior credit facility in order to permit us to obtain the subordinated credit facility.  As of June 30, 2003, there were no outstanding amounts under this
subordinated credit facility and no repurchases of common stock had been made.

As of August 12, 2003, we had approximately 39.9 million shares of common stock outstanding, or approximately 46.7
million shares of common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis, assuming the exercise of all outstanding options and warrants.

We anticipate spending approximately $2.0 million in capital
expenditures during 2003, primarily for the implementation of customer orders. We have substantially completed the deployment of our FINs, carrier hotel facilities and metropolitan transport networks. We may expend additional capital for the
selected expansion of our network infrastructure, depending upon market conditions, customer demand and our liquidity and capital resources.

We believe that the completion of the transactions
that constituted our recapitalization significantly enhanced our liquidity and improved our financial position. Under our current operating plan, we do not anticipate requiring any external sources of capital to fund our operations in the coming
year. However if actual results vary from the anticipated results of our operating plan, we may not be able to fund our operating and investing activities with internally generated cash flows, and we may require external sources of capital. From
time to time, we may consider private or public sales of additional equity or debt securities and other financings, depending upon market conditions, in order to finance the continued operations of our business. There can be no assurance that we
will be able to successfully consummate any such financing on acceptable terms, if at all. We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, nor do we anticipate entering into any.

On
June 27, 2003, we commenced our previously approved exchange offer for our outstanding warrants. Holders of our outstanding warrants are being given the opportunity to exchange their currently outstanding warrants for shares of our common stock as
if the exercise price of their warrants is $.001 per share and such warrants are exercised in full on a cashless basis. The offer was implemented to, among other things, satisfy certain of our obligations undertaken with respect to our
recapitalization transactions, which occurred in October 2002 and January 2003. The offer expires on August 29, 2003. The holders of the warrants issued in connection with the recapitalization transactions we completed in October 2002 and January
2003 are not participating in the offer to exchange.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. The statement requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is
incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes a cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted to its then present value, and the capitalized cost is
depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity either settles the obligation for its recorded amount or incurs a gain or loss upon settlement. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2002, with earlier application encouraged. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on our results of operations.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145,
Rescission of FASB Statements 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement 13, and Technical Corrections. SFAS No. 145 rescinds the provisions of SFAS No. 4 that requires companies to classify certain gains and losses from debt
extinguishments as extraordinary items, eliminates the provisions of SFAS No. 44 regarding transition to the Motor Carrier Act of 1980 and amends the provisions of SFAS No. 13 to require that certain lease modifications be treated as sale leaseback
transactions. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to classification of debt extinguishment are effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. As a result of the adoption of this statement, we classified debt extinguishment costs
incurred during the first quarter of 2003 within income from operations and will reclassify previously reported debt extinguishments as such. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to lease modification are effective for transactions occurring after
May 15, 2002.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). The principal difference between SFAS No. 146 and
EITF No. 94-3 relates to its requirements for recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the
liability is incurred. Under EITF No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost was recognized at the date of an entitys commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31,
2002. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,
Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosurean Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of Statement No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for

stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material impact on our
financial position or results of operations.

In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 149, Amendments of Statement 133 on Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 149).  SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts
(collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The changes included in SFAS No. 149 improve financial reporting by
requiring that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly.  In particular, SFAS No. 149 (1) clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative
discussed in paragraph 6(b) of SFAS No. 133, (2) clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component, (3) amends the definition of an underlying derivative to conform it to language used in FIN No. 45, and (4) amends certain other
existing pronouncements. Those changes will result in more consistent reporting of contracts as either derivatives or hybrid instruments.  SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, with certain
exceptions for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003.  We believe that adopting SFAS No. 149 will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In June 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS No. 150).  SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for
how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in
some circumstances). SFAS No.150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.  We have not completed
our evaluation of the impact of the adoption of this statement, and therefore, cannot determine whether it will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2002,
the FASB issued FIN No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness to Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of FASB
Interpretation No. 34. FIN No. 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by the guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. The initial recognition and measurement
provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The adoption of this interpretation did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN No. 46). FIN No. 46 addresses whether certain types of entities, referred to as
variable interest entities (VIEs), should be consolidated in a companys financial statements. A VIE is an entity that either (1) has equity investors that lack certain essential characteristics of a controlling financial
interest (including the ability to control the entity, the obligation to absorb the entitys expected losses and the right to receive the entitys expected residual returns), or (2) lacks sufficient equity to finance its own
activities without financial support provided by other entities, which in turn would be expected to absorb at least some of the expected losses of the VIE. An entity should consolidate a VIE if it stands to absorb a majority of the VIEs
expected losses or to receive a majority of the VIEs expected residual returns. We have evaluated the impact of the adoption of FIN No. 46, effective January 1, 2003, and do not believe it will have a material impact on our consolidated
financial position or consolidated results of operations.

Certain Facts That May Affect Future Results of Operations

This
report contains certain forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based on managements current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that there can be no assurance that actual results or business conditions will not differ materially
from those projected or suggested in such forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. As a result, our
future operations involve a high degree of risk. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Our exposure to financial market risk, including changes in interest rates, relates primarily to our credit facility and marketable security
investments. Borrowings under our credit facility bear interest at floating rates, based upon LIBOR or a base rate plus an applicable margin. As a result, we are subject to fluctuations in interest rates. A 100 basis point increase in LIBOR would
increase our annual interest expense by less than $1.0 million per year. As of June 30, 2003, we had borrowed $22.4 million under our credit facility, with a current weighted average interest rate of 4.78%.

On January 2, 2002, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction with Deutsche Bank AG for a notional amount of $25.0 million and a term of two years. Pursuant to this transaction, we were obligated to make quarterly
interest payments at a fixed, annual interest rate of 3.7%. Because such interest rate excluded the applicable margin of 4.5% that we paid on our credit facility at the time, the total interest rate for us on this swap transaction was 8.2%. As part
of this agreement, Deutsche Bank AG was obligated to pay to us on a quarterly basis a floating rate of interest based upon LIBOR with a designated maturity of three months. On March 20, 2002, we terminated this interest rate swap transaction with
Deutsche Bank AG with no payments or other amounts owed by either party. As a result, all of our outstanding borrowings under our credit facility bear interest at a floating rate.

We generally
place our marketable security investments in high credit quality instruments, primarily U.S. government obligations and corporate obligations with contractual maturities of less than one year. We operate only in the United States, and all sales have
been made in U.S. dollars. We do not have any material exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures.    Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the
end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective to ensure that material information relating to FiberNet, including
our consolidated subsidiaries, was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was being prepared.

Changes in
Internal Controls.    There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, nor were there any significant
deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls. Accordingly, no corrective actions were required or undertaken.

FIBERNET TELECOM GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.    ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

FiberNet Telecom Group, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the Company or FiberNet) is an
optical, facilities-based communications service provider focused on providing wholesale broadband connectivity for data, voice and video transmission on its state-of-the-art fiber optic networks in major metropolitan areas. The Company offers an
advanced high bandwidth, fiber optic solution to support the demand for network capacity in the intra-city market, or local loop. The Company has established its primary operations in the New York and Los Angeles metropolitan areas.

FiberNet is a holding company that owns all of the outstanding common stock of FiberNet Operations, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an intermediate level holding company, and Devnet L.L.C. (Devnet),
a Delaware limited liability company. FiberNet Operations, Inc. owns all of the outstanding common stock of FiberNet Telecom Inc., a Delaware corporation. FiberNet Telecom, Inc. owns all of the outstanding membership interests of Local Fiber, LLC
(Local Fiber), a New York limited liability company, and all of the outstanding membership interests of FiberNet Equal Access, LLC (Equal Access), also a New York limited liability company. The Company conducts its primary
business operations through its operating subsidiaries, Devnet, Local Fiber and Equal Access.

The Company has agreements with other entities, including telecommunications license agreements with
on-net building landlords, interconnection agreements with other telecommunications service providers and leases with carrier hotel property owners. FiberNet also has entered into contracts with suppliers for the components of its telecommunications
networks. These contracts and agreements are critical to the Companys ability to execute its business strategy and operating plan.

The Companys operations and ability to grow may be
affected by numerous factors, including the state of the telecommunications industry, the difficulty inherent in operating an early-stage company in a new and rapidly evolving market; its history of operating losses and cash flow deficits; its
limited financial resources and uncertainty as to the availability of additional capital to fund its operations on acceptable terms, if at all; its success in maintaining carrier hotel lease agreements and license agreements with building owners and
in obtaining additional agreements; the financial difficulties and instability that its customers and vendors are experiencing; the lack of growth in demand for its services or the failure to manage the growth of its operations; the frequency of
service interruptions on its networks and the scalability and reliability of its networks; the potential occurrence of a natural disaster of act of terrorism that could impact its networks; the potential loss of key personnel, information support
systems or key software licenses; the potential for litigation from stockholders, customers, vendors or other third parties; continued pricing pressure and price competition for its services; the potential development by competitors of competing
products and technologies; restrictions imposed on it as a result of its debt; and changes in the regulatory environment. The failure of the Company to achieve certain operational results would violate certain debt covenants thereby potentially
accelerating the outstanding balance for immediate payment.

The Company believes that the completion of the transactions that constituted its recapitalization, as discussed in Note 4,
significantly enhanced its liquidity and improved its financial position. Under FiberNets current operating plan, it does not anticipate requiring any external sources of capital to fund its operations in the coming year. However if actual
results vary from the anticipated results of its operating plan, it may not be able to fund operating and investing activities with internally generated cash flows, and the Company may require external sources of capital. From time to time, FiberNet
may consider private or public sales of additional equity or debt securities and other financings, depending upon market conditions, in order to finance the continued operations of its business. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to successfully consummate any such financing on acceptable terms, or at all. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, nor does it anticipate entering into any.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, FiberNet Operations, Inc., Devnet, FiberNet Telecom, Inc., Equal Access and Local Fiber. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the operating results have been
included in the consolidated financial statements.

##### Table of Contents

All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or
less when purchased. The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of the instruments.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, once placed in service. The estimated
lives are as follows:

|Computer software                 |  |  | 3-5   Years | 
|--------------------------------- |  |  | ----------- | 
|Computer equipment                |  |  | 3-5   Years | 
|Office and equipment and fixtures |  |  | 5-10 Years  | 
|Leasehold improvements            |  |  | 9-15 Years  | 
|Network equipment                 |  |  | 5-10 Years  | 
|Network infrastructure            |  |  | 5-20 Years  | 

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Long-term improvements are capitalized as additions to
property, plant and equipment.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets for
impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future
cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss would be recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets.

On January 1, 2002, the
Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No. 144).  SFAS No. 144 replaced SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of (SFAS No. 121), and establishes accounting and reporting standards for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale.  SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived
assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  SFAS No. 144 also broadens the reporting of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that can be distinguished from the
rest of the entity that will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction.  In 2003, the Company reviewed its long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144 and determined that no events or
changes in circumstances have indicated that asset carrying values were no longer recoverable and that no impairment charge was necessary.

Revenue Recognition

FiberNet generates revenues from selling network capacity and related services to other communications service providers. The Company recognizes revenues when earned as services are provided throughout the life of each
contract with a customer. The majority of the Companys revenues are generated on a monthly recurring basis under contracts of various lengths, ranging from one month to fifteen years. Revenue is recognized over the service contract period for
all general services. Deferred revenues consist primarily of payments received in advance of revenue being earned under the service contracts. Some of its customers are obligated to make minimum payments for the utilization of its networks and
facilities. Customers may elect to purchase additional services in excess of minimum contractual requirements.

Revenues are derived from three general types of services:

Transport services.    FiberNets transport services include the offering of broadband circuits on its metropolitan transport networks

and FINs. Over the Companys metropolitan transport networks, it can provision circuits from one of its carrier hotel facilities to another carrier hotel facility or to
an on-net building via an interconnection with its FIN in that building. The Company can also provision circuits vertically between floors in a carrier hotel facility or an on-net building. In 2003, the Company also initiated a new type of transport
service offering to provide its customers with circuits on networks that it does not own. The Company intends to sell this connectivity to its customers and purchase the underlying circuits from other wholesale telecommunications carriers. With this
new initiative, FiberNet believes that it can better serve the broader network capacity needs of its customers than the Company is currently able to on its own networks.

Colocation
services.    FiberNets colocation services include providing customers with the ability to locate their communications and networking equipment at its carrier hotel facilities in a secure technical operating environment.
The Company can also provide its customers with colocation services in the central equipment rooms of certain of its on-net and off-net buildings. Typically, if a customer colocates its equipment at the Companys facilities, FiberNets
agreement with them may include a minimum commitment to use its transport services.

Communications access management services.    FiberNets access management services
include providing its customers with the non-exclusive right to market and provide their retail services to tenants in its on-net and off-net buildings. Customers typically enter into an agreement with the Company to gain access to all or a
significant number of its properties. For certain of its on-net and off-net buildings, the Company has the exclusive right to manage communications access. Once a customer has entered into an agreement with the Company for access services, it
typically requires that customer to utilize its in-building networking infrastructure for connectivity to its retail customers, if such networking infrastructure is available.

As of June 30, 2003
the Company had one reciprocal agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2002 the Company had two such reciprocal agreements, one of which was terminated during that period. The services provided and obtained through this agreement were priced
at fair market value as of the date of the agreement and are included in revenues and cost of services in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded revenues from these reciprocal agreements for transport services
and colocation services in the amount of approximately $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three month ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002,
respectively. The Company leased colocation facilities under these agreements. The total amounts expensed for services rendered under the reciprocal agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 were approximately $0.2 million
and $0.6 million, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company estimates that the carrying value of its financial instruments approximates fair value, as all financial instruments are short term in nature or bear interest at variable rates.

Goodwill

Cost in excess of net assets of acquired business, principally goodwill, is accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 142, which is applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS
No. 142, which was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2002, requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets resulting from business combinations entered into prior to June 30, 2001 no longer be amortized, but instead be reviewed for
recoverability. Any write-down of goodwill would be charged as a cumulative change in accounting principle upon adoption of the new accounting standard if the recorded value of goodwill and certain intangibles exceeds its fair value. The Company
performs its annual impairment test in December.

Deferred Charges

Deferred charges include the cost to access buildings and deferred
financing costs. Costs to access buildings are amortized over 15 years, which represents the term of the related contracts. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the term of the related debt instrument.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share have been computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share
is computed by including the dilutive effect on common stock that would be issued assuming conversion of stock options, warrants and other dilutive securities. Dilutive options, warrants and other securities did not have an effect on the computation
of diluted earnings per share for the six months and the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, as they were anti-dilutive due to the fact that the Company was in a loss position for the respective periods.

On May 12, 2003, the Company completed its 1-for-30 reverse stock split previously approved by stockholders. The earnings per share information as presented in these financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the
reverse stock split.

ended June 30, 2003, there were no individual customers that accounted for over 10% of the Companys total revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, two customers in the aggregate accounted for 28.5% of the Companys total
revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, there were no individual customers that accounted for over 10% of the Companys total revenue.

As of June 30, 2003, the Company had an
allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company wrote-off $0.3 million of accounts receivable which reduced the allowance for doubtful accounts, and there were no charges to bad debt expense.
For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company recorded $0.5 million of bad debt expense.

Stock Option Plan

The Company accounts
for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and complies with the disclosure provisions of
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation as amended by SFAS No. 148. Under APB Opinion No. 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant, between the fair value of the Companys stock
and the exercise price. The Company accounts for stock options issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123.

The resulting expense is charged against operations
ratably over the vesting period of the options.

Accounting for Income Taxes

The Company accounts
for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the use of the liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes represent the net tax effect
of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes. Additionally, if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset
will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to be recognized.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts
for derivative instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS No. 133). SFAS No. 133 establishes standards of accounting and reporting for
derivative instruments and hedging activities, and requires that all derivatives be recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not meet the hedge accounting criteria are to be reported in
earnings. SFAS No. 133 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements, as the Company did not have any derivative instrument contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2002, or June 30, 2003.

On January 2, 2002 the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction with Deutsche Bank AG for a notional amount of $25.0 million and a term of two years. Pursuant to this transaction, the Company was
obligated to make quarterly interest payments at a fixed, annual interest rate of 3.7%, excluding the applicable margin that it paid on its credit facility. As part of this agreement, Deutsche Bank AG was obligated to pay to the Company on a
quarterly basis a floating rate of interest based upon LIBOR with a designated maturity of three months. On March 20, 2002, the Company terminated this interest rate swap transaction with Deutsche Bank AG with no payments or other amounts owed by
either party. As a result, all of its outstanding borrowings under the Companys

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. The statement requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in
which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes a cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted to its then present value, and the capitalized cost
is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity either settles the obligation for its recorded amount or incurs a gain or loss upon settlement. The statement is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002, with earlier application encouraged. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on its results of operations.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement 13, and Technical Corrections. SFAS No. 145 rescinds the provisions of SFAS No. 4 that requires companies to classify certain gains and losses from
debt extinguishments as extraordinary items, eliminates the provisions of SFAS No. 44 regarding transition to the Motor Carrier Act of 1980 and amends the provisions of SFAS No. 13 to require that certain lease modifications be treated as sale
leaseback transactions. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to classification of debt extinguishment are effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. Commencing January 1, 2003, the Company classified debt extinguishment costs within
income from operations and will reclassify previously reported debt extinguishments as such. The provisions of SFAS No. 145 related to lease modification are effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 94-3, Liability
Recognition for certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). The principal difference between SFAS No. 146 and EITF No. 94-3 relates to its requirements for
recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF No. 94-3, a
liability for an exit cost was recognized at the date of an entitys commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 did not have
a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 149, Amendments of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 149).  SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively
referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The changes included in SFAS No. 149 improve financial reporting by requiring that
contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly.  In particular, SFAS No. 149 (1) clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative discussed in
paragraph 6(b) of SFAS No. 133, (2) clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component, (3) amends the definition of an underlying to conform it to language used in FIN No. 45, and (4) amends certain other existing pronouncements.
Those changes will result in more consistent reporting of contracts as either derivatives or hybrid instruments.  SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, with certain exceptions for hedging
relationships designated after June 30, 2003.  The Company believes that adopting SFAS No. 149 will not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In June 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS No. 150).  SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for
how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in
some circumstances).  SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company has not
completed its evaluation of the impact of the adoption of this statement, and therefore, cannot determine whether it will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation Number (FIN) No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness to
Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34. FIN No. 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by the guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its
obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The adoption of this statement did
not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN
No. 46). FIN No. 46 addresses

23

##### Table of Contents

whether certain types of entities, referred to as variable interest entities (VIEs), should be consolidated in a companys financial statements. A VIE is an
entity that either (1) has equity investors that lack certain essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest (including the ability to control the entity, the obligation to absorb the entitys expected losses and the right
to receive the entitys expected residual returns), or (2) lacks sufficient equity to finance its own activities without financial support provided by other entities, which in turn would be expected to absorb at least some of the expected
losses of the VIE. An entity should consolidate a VIE if it stands to absorb a majority of the VIEs expected losses or to receive a majority of the VIEs expected residual returns. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of
FIN No. 46, effective January 1, 2003, and does not believe it will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.

4.    SIGNIFICANT
EVENTS

On January 10, 2003, the Company completed certain transactions with the lenders under its credit facility. Pursuant to the terms of three debt exchange agreements between the Company
and each of Bank One, N.A., Nortel Networks Inc. and TD Securities (USA) Inc., the Company has issued 4,617,151 shares of its common stock to these three lenders at a price of $3.00 per share, in satisfaction of approximately $13.4 million of
indebtedness, representing all of the outstanding principal indebtedness and accrued interest owing to these departing lenders under the Companys credit agreement.

The Company also entered
into a common stock purchase agreement, dated as of January 10, 2003, with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company issued to the investors in a private offering an aggregate of 972,222 shares of common stock for a price of $3.60 per share,
for an aggregate cash consideration of $3.5 million. Pursuant to the terms of the investor purchase agreement, the Company also issued to such investors warrants to purchase an additional 1,895,659 shares of common stock at an exercise price of
$3.60 per share with a term of five years. The Company recorded a $0.7 million charge to additional paid-in-capital which represented the costs incurred to complete this offering. Concurrently with the transactions described above, the investors
also purchased 9,820,061 shares of common stock from the departing lenders in a privately negotiated transaction for an aggregate cash consideration of $9.0 million.

In connection with the
investor purchase agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of January 10, 2003, with the investors which required the Company to file a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission
with respect to the registration of all of the shares of common stock issued under the investor purchase agreement and the shares that the investors purchased from the departing lenders. This registration statement was declared effective on February
20, 2003.

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the debt exchange agreements, the Company and the lenders executed a ninth amendment to the credit agreement, pursuant to which,
among other things, the rights and obligations of the departing lenders under the credit facility terminated, subject to standard reinstatement and survival provisions. As a condition to the lenders entering into this amendment, the Company agreed
to reduce the exercise price of certain warrants previously issued to and held by the lenders to purchase approximately 2,544,974 shares of common stock from $3.60 per share to $0.03 per share. All of the repriced warrants were immediately exercised
by the lenders. In addition pursuant to a security agreement and a securities account control agreement, the Company agreed to deposit approximately $2.3 million in a restricted account as cash collateral to secure the assumption by Deutsche Bank AG
New York Branch of the departing lenders funding obligations for the Companys outstanding letters of credit, which total approximately $6.1 million.

The Company evaluated the above
transactions under the guidance of Financial Technical Bulletin (FTB) No. 80-1 Early

Extinguishment of Debt through Exchange for Common or Preferred Stock. During January 2003, the Company recorded a charge of $9.7 million related to the early
extinguishment of debt for the difference between the net carrying amount of debt that was extinguished and the reacquisition price represented by the total fair market value of the common stock issued and the fair market value of the warrants that
were repriced and exercised. The fair value given in exchange for $13.4 million in long term debt was 4.6 million shares of common stock with a fair market value of $3.60 per share on the date of issuance, the issuance of 2.2 million warrants with
an exercise price of $3.60 per share with terms between one and five years valued at $7.9 million using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of issuance, and the repricing of 3.0 million existing warrants from $3.60 to $0.03 valued at
$2.0 million using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of issuance. Also included in this loss is $1.0 million in fees associated with the consummation of the recapitalization. As this extinguishment of debt represented approximately
38.1% of the outstanding balance, the Company wrote-off the same percentage of deferred financing charges and original issue discount of $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively, which is also included in its calculation of loss on early
extinguishment of debt. The Company also recorded certain non-recurring expenses incurred in connection with the recapitalization transactions. These expenses included compensation to financial advisors in the form of a cash fee of approximately
$0.8 million and the issuance of 0.3 million warrants with an exercise price of $0.03 and with a term of five years valued at $1.2 million using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of issuance.

As of June 30, 2003, the Company had $22.4 million of indebtedness outstanding under its senior secured credit facility which reflected the total amount available under the credit facility. As of such date, the three remaining
lenders under the Companys credit facility owned approximately 30% of the outstanding shares of the Companys common stock.

In February 2003, the Company settled certain litigation
matters by issuing approximately 43,000 shares of common stock, 0.2 million warrants to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.03 per share and a term of five years and approximately 0.2 million warrants to purchase common stock with an
exercise price of $3.60 per share and a term of five years. The Company also repriced 17,000 of existing warrants to purchase common stock from exercise prices of $15.00 and $20.10 per share to $0.03 per share. These warrants also have a term of
five years. The Company had previously accrued for the settlement of these certain outstanding litigation matters, and recorded a $0.6 million expense in selling, general and administration in the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2002.

On March 17, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to terminate all of its capital lease obligations for a payment of $85,000. This termination of its capital lease obligations resulted in
a gain on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.8 million, recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2003. This amount partially offset the loss on early extinguishments of debt, discussed above.

As of April 1, 2003, FiberNet amended a real estate lease to reduce the rent payments thereunder indefinitely. Upon reaching a revenue threshold, the rent expense will increase by approximately $3.0 million on an annual basis.
Due to the uncertainty in forecasting future revenues, the Company does not have a reasonable basis to estimate when the revenue threshold will be reached and has not accrued for a contingent increase in rent as of June 30, 2003.

In a definitive Information Statement filed on April 17, 2003, a majority of the Companys stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of the Companys Equity Incentive Plan (the
Plan) to, among other things (i) increase the number of shares available for awards under the Plan to 5,500,000, (ii) eliminate a provision that limited awards of restricted stock to 10% of the shares available for issuance under the
Plan, and (iii) increase to 3,333,333 the maximum number of shares of common stock subject to awards that may be granted to an individual in any given fiscal year. The Information Statement became effective on May 7, 2003.

On May 12, 2003, the Company completed its 1-for-30 reverse stock split previously approved by stockholders.  The financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split as of June 30, 2003.

On June 13, 2003, the Company executed the loan documentation necessary to establish a subordinated credit facility to provide the funding for the purchase of up to $3.0 million of the
Companys common stock, under a stock repurchase program.  Repurchases may be made from time to time until December 31, 2003 through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades or otherwise. Repurchases are
subject to the availability of stock, prevailing market conditions, trading price of the stock and the Companys financial performance. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be
discontinued or suspended at any time. Any shares repurchased in the program will be treated as shares of common stock held in treasury. All purchases will be made in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations, including Rule 10b-18
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  In addition, the Company amended its senior credit facility.  As of June 30, 2003, there were no outstanding amounts under this subordinated credit facility and no repurchases of
common stock had been made.

On June 27, 2003, the Company commenced its previously approved exchange offer for its outstanding warrants.  Holders of  outstanding
warrants are being given the opportunity to exchange their currently outstanding warrants for shares of the Companys common stock as if the exercise price of their warrants is $.001 per share and such warrants are exercised in
full on a cashless basis.  The offer was implemented to, among other things, satisfy certain of our obligations undertaken with respect to our recapitalization transactions, which occurred in October 2002 and January 2003.  The
offer expires on August 29, 2003.  The holders of the warrants issued in connection with the recapitalization transactions we completed in October 2002 and January 2003 are not participating in the offer to
exchange.
