<PAGE>

         -        The BORROWER shall issue to the BORROWER PARENT COMPANY shares
                  of the BORROWER'S common stock at a conversion price
                  determined as set forth below, and, concurrently therewith,
                  the bridge loan amount and the Accrued Interest owed by the
                  BORROWER PARENT COMPANY to the Lender shall be contributed by
                  the LENDER as additional capital to the BORROWER PARENT
                  COMPANY.

The parties agree to take any required actions, measures, and commitment to
complete the aforementioned conversion as promptly as practicable.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                          ARTICLE VI - CONVERSION TERMS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Should the BORROWER not be in a positive enough cash position to repay the
balance of the principal of the bridge loan amount and the Accrued Interest on
the Final Maturity date, and should the LENDER elect to convert all or part of
the balance of the bridge loan amount and the Accrued Interest (the "CONVERSION
AMOUNT") into shares of common stock of the BORROWER, the conversion shall be
completed according to the following terms:

The conversion price (the "CONVERSION PRICE") shall be USD 3 per share, which is
approximately equal to the average of the closing sales prices of the BORROWER'S
common stock on the 15 trading days commencing August 30, 2001 (actually, USD
2.97).

         For instance: if the balance of the bridge loan amount and the Accrued
Interest to be converted is equal to USD 3,000,000, the total number of A NOVO
BROADBAND shares to be issued on conversion shall be equal to 1,000,0000 shares
(3,000,000/ 3).

It is agreed that if the number of A NOVO BROADBAND shares to be issued on
conversion is not a round number of shares it shall be rounded to the nearest
superior unit of shares.

To illustrate this: if by applying the conversion terms, the total number of A
NOVO BROADBAND shares to be issued is equal to 1,000,006.1. This number shall be
rounded up to 1,000,007.

The CONVERSION PRICE in effect at any time and the number and kind of securities
issuable upon the conversion of the CONVERSION AMOUNT shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:

a.       In case BORROWER shall hereafter (i) declare a dividend or make a
         distribution on its outstanding shares of common stock in shares of
         common stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify its outstanding shares of
         common stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine or
         reclassify its outstanding shares of common stock into a smaller number
         of shares, the CONVERSION PRICE in effect at the time of the record
         date for such dividend or distribution or of the effective date of such
         subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted so that
         it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the CONVERSION PRICE
         by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the number of shares
         of common stock outstanding after giving effect to such action, and the
         numerator of which shall be the number of shares of common stock
         outstanding immediately prior to such action. Such adjustment shall be
         made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

                                       5
<PAGE>

b.      In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made
        pursuant to Subsection a. above, the LENDER thereafter shall become
        entitled to receive any shares of the BORROWER, other than common stock,
        thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion
        of the CONVERSION AMOUNT shall be subject to adjustment from time to
        time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the
        provisions with respect to the common stock contained in this Article
        VI.

c.       In case of any reorganization, reclassification or change of the common
         stock (including any such reorganization, reclassification or change in
         connection with a consolidation or merger in which the BORROWER is the
         continuing entity), or any consolidation of the BORROWER with, or
         merger of the BORROWER with or into, any other entity (other than a
         consolidation or merger in which the BORROWER is the continuing
         entity), or of any sale of the properties and assets of the BORROWER
         as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other person or entity, the
         CONVERSION AMOUNT then outstanding shall thereafter be convertible into
         the kind and amount of stock or other securities or property receivable
         upon such reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation,
         merger or sale by a holder of the number of shares of common stock into
         which the CONVERSION AMOUNT would have been converted prior to such
         transaction (without regard to limitations on conversion contained
         herein). The provisions of this Section c. shall similarly apply to
         successive reorganizations, reclassifications, changes, consolidations,
         mergers or sales immediately prior to such reorganization,
         reclassification, change, consolidation, merger or sale.
