 June 13, 2003 
  
 FiberNet Telecom Group, Inc. 
 570 Lexington Avenue 
 New York, New York 10022 
  

	 	RE:	 	Subordinated Draw Down Credit Facility 

  
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 1. Loan. This letter when fully executed will constitute a loan agreement (the “Agreement”) among North Sound Legacy Fund
LLC, North Sound Legacy Institutional Fund LLC and North Sound Legacy International Ltd. (collectively, the “Lenders”), and FiberNet Telecom Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), pursuant to which
the Lenders, jointly and severally, on the terms and conditions provided herein, shall agree to make one or more loans to or for the benefit of the Borrower hereunder (each a “Loan” and collectively, the “Loans”),
provided the aggregate principal amount of all Loans shall not exceed Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00). The day on which the Lenders make a Loan is referred to herein as a “Closing Date.” Each Lender’s obligation to make a
Loan is subject to the Borrower’s fulfillment of each of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 7 hereof. 
  
 2. Loan Documents. 
  
 a. Notes. At each Closing Date, the Loans shall be evidenced by separate subordinated promissory notes issued to the Lenders in the principal
amount of each such Loan in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (together with any replacements and substitutes therefor, the “Notes”). The accrued interest on the principal amount of the Notes shall be calculated at the
rate of 6% per annum and shall be payable semi-annually in cash, subject to Section 6 hereof, or in shares of the Borrower’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at the option of the Borrower, as more
fully set forth in Section 5 hereof. 
  
 b. This Agreement, the
Notes, the Draw Down Notices (as defined in Section 4 hereof) and each other document which evidences and/or secures the Loans are hereinafter collectively rePferred to as the “Loan Documents.” 
  
 3. Term and Termination. Subject to Section 9 hereof, the
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and other sums owing hereunder and thereunder shall be due and payable on the earlier (the “Maturity Date”) of: (i) July 31, 2007, or
(ii) the acceleration of the obligations as contemplated by this Agreement. The Maturity Date may be extended as agreed upon in writing between the parties. 
  
 4. Draw Down Terms and Procedures. The Borrower shall deliver to the Lenders an executed draw down notice in connection with each request
for a Loan to be made by the Lenders under this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (a “Draw Down Notice”). The Draw Down Notice shall be delivered to the Lenders at least two (2) business days prior to the
Lenders making any Loan hereunder. The Borrower shall not make any request for a Loan and the Lenders shall not be obligated to honor any request for a Loan pursuant to this Agreement if such request is for an amount exceeding $250,000 in any
twenty-four (24) hour 

 period; provided, however, this limitation may be waived with the prior written consent of the Lenders. The
right of the Borrower to issue a Draw Down Notice and request a Loan pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate on December 31, 2003, unless otherwise extended in writing by the Lenders, the Borrower and the Senior Lenders (as defined in Section 7
hereof) under the Senior Credit Facility (as defined in Section 7 hereof). Other than with the prior written consent of the Lenders, all Loans made to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall be used solely to repurchase shares of the
Borrower’s Common Stock in the open market or in private transactions. Upon the Lenders’ receipt of a Draw Down Notice, the Lenders shall make the Loan to the Borrower within two (2) business days of the date of receipt of such Draw Down
Notice. 
  
 5. Repayment of Loans. Subject to the
provisions of Section 6 hereof, the Borrower may, at its option, repay the principal amount under the Notes and any interest accrued thereon in cash, subject to Section 6 hereof, or in shares of Common Stock. In the event that the Borrower elects to
repay any of the principal amount under the Notes or any interest accrued thereon in shares of Common Stock, the Borrower shall provide each of the Lenders with twenty (20) trading days prior written notice (the “Borrower’s Repayment
Notice”) of its intention to make such payments in shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued as payment of the principal amount under the Notes and any interest accrued thereon and upon a Triggering Event (as
defined in Section 10 hereof) shall be an amount equal to the quotient of (a) aggregate principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be paid in shares of Common Stock, divided by (b) ninety-two percent (92%) of the
average of the Volume Weighted Average Prices (as defined below) of the Common Stock for the twenty (20) trading days immediately prior to the date of the Borrower’s Repayment Notice. For purposes of this Agreement, Volume Weighted Average
Price shall mean the daily volume weighted average price (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. eastern time) of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market or the OTC Bulletin Board as reported by Bloomberg Financial LP using the
AQR function. If the Borrower elects to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and accrued but unpaid interest thereon in shares of Common Stock, the Borrower represents and warrants that the shares of Common Stock shall be issued in a
transaction exempt from registration in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Notwithstanding any other provision in the Loan Documents, the Borrower shall not be obligated to issue any
shares of Common Stock in repayment of the Loans and accrued interest thereon which, in the aggregate, would exceed 9.99% of the outstanding Common Stock as of the date of this Agreement. 
  
 6. Subordination to Borrower’s Senior Credit Facility. This Agreement and the Notes shall be subject to
the terms and conditions of that certain Subordination Agreement, dated of even date herewith among Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent for the Senior Lenders (as defined in Section 7.b. hereof), and the Lenders (the
“Subordination Agreement”), attached hereto as Exhibit C. 
  
 7. Conditions Precedent. 
  
 a. Documents to be Delivered. The obligation of each Lender to make any Loan is subject to the due execution and delivery by the Borrower (or the Borrower causing the 
  

 2 

 due execution and delivery) to each Lender of each of the following (all documents to be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to each Lender and its counsel): 
  
 i. This
Agreement, the Notes, the Draw Down Notice and each other instrument, agreement and document to be executed and/or delivered pursuant to this Agreement and/or the instruments, agreements and documents referred to in this Agreement.

Board of Directors takes action by unanimous written consent, a copy of such unanimous written consent containing all of the signatures of the members of the Board of Directors) of the Borrower, dated as of the initial Closing Date, authorizing the
execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents. 
  
 iii. A certificate, dated as of the applicable Closing Date, signed by an executive officer of the Borrower to the effect that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement are true and correct as of the

the business, operations, properties, prospects or financial condition of the Borrower. 
  
 ii. Each of the Loan Documents has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower and is a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance

hereunder and thereunder. 
  
 iii. The execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the Loan Documents will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach of or a default under any of the terms or provisions of, (A) the each of the Lender’s certificate of formation or operational documents, or
(B) any material provision of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other material agreement or instrument to which each of the Lenders is a party or by which each or any of their material properties or assets are bound, (ii) result in a

 21 

 pursuant to the terms of the Subordinated Credit Facility and the Notes in shares of Qualified Common Stock of the

agents purportedly as collateral for the obligations of the Parent pursuant to any Subordinated Claim, including under the Notes (any of which is not permitted), such payments, cash or other property will, in each case, be deemed to have been
received for the account of the Administrative Agent and shall be held in trust for the Secured Parties and immediately paid over to the Administrative Agent for application as provided in the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty. 
  
 3. No Alteration. 
  
 a. NO ALTERATION. The payment and collateral restrictions contained
herein shall not be affected by any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, renewal, restatement, or refinancing of any of the Senior Indebtedness nor by any action or inaction which the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may
take or fail to take under or in respect of the Senior Indebtedness. 
  
 4. OTHER PROVISIONS. 
  
 a. MODIFICATION OF
LOAN DOCUMENTS. Any of the Secured Parties may at any time and from time to time without the consent of or notice to the Subordinated Lenders, and without incurring liability to the Subordinated Lenders, or impairing the obligations of the
Subordinated Lenders under this Agreement, agree to amend or modify in any manner any Loan Document (including, without limitation, any one or more of the following: (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of or extend the time of payment

Indebtedness is outstanding or any Loan Document; (b) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing the Senior Indebtedness; (c) release any person liable in any manner for the Senior
Indebtedness; and/or (d) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Parent and any other person).

consent of the Administrative Agent: 
  
 i. Agree to any
amendment, modification or supplement to the Subordinated Credit Facility, the Notes or any other Subordinated Note Document; receive 
  

 22 

 guaranties with respect to the Subordinated Credit Facility, the Notes or any other Subordinated Note Document, or
otherwise cause any person in addition to the Parent to assume obligations with respect to the Subordinated Credit Facility, the Notes or any other Subordinated Note Document; or accept or receive any liens, security interests, deposits or
collateral to secure payment thereof; or 
  
 ii. Sell, assign,
pledge, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of any Subordinated Claim, including the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes, unless prior to the consummation of any such action any transferee thereof agrees in writing to be bound by the
provisions hereof applicable to the Subordinated Lenders and to the continued effectiveness of all of the rights of the Secured Parties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the failure of any such transferee to so agree, this Agreement shall
survive any such sale, assignment, pledge, disposition or other transfer, and the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon any such transferee. 
  
 c. ACCELERATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF SUBORDINATED CLAIMS. Each of the Subordinated Lenders agrees not to demand, accelerate, bring suit to collect or
otherwise exercise or enforce any right or remedy in respect of the amounts due under the Subordinated Credit Facility and the Notes or commence or prosecute any action or proceeding thereon or otherwise exercise or enforce any right or remedy in
respect of the amounts due under the Subordinated Credit Facility and the Notes, including any right or remedy that otherwise might be available to it in any Bankruptcy Case, unless the Senior Indebtedness outstanding under the Loan Documents has
been declared immediately due and payable by the Senior Lenders or has otherwise become immediately due and payable. 
  
 d. PROCEEDING AGAINST PARENT. Each of the Subordinated Lenders agrees not to commence or join with any other creditor or creditors of the Parent in
commencing any Proceeding against the Parent or any of its subsidiaries. 
  
 e. BANKRUPTCY ISSUES. 
  
 i. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect after the commencement of a Bankruptcy Case (all references herein to the Parent being deemed to apply to the Parent as debtor-in-possession and to a trustee for the Parent’s
estate in a Bankruptcy Case). 
  
 ii. In the context of a
Bankruptcy Case, the Senior Indebtedness shall be paid in full in cash before any payment of or with respect to any Subordinated Claim, including the Notes, shall be made (whether in respect of principal, interest, premium, fees, indemnities,
commissions or otherwise). 
  
 iii. In the context of a
Bankruptcy Case, any payment or distribution, whether in cash, property or securities, which, but for the terms hereof, otherwise would be payable or deliverable in respect of a Subordinated Claim, shall be paid or delivered directly to the
Administrative Agent (to be held or applied in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents) until all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash, and each of the Subordinated Lenders irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs all receivers,
trustees, debtors in possession, liquidators, custodians, conservators and others having authority in the premises to 
  

 23 

 effect all such payments and distributions, and each of the Subordinated Lenders also irrevocably authorizes, empowers
and directs the Administrative Agent to demand, sue for, collect and receive every such payment or distribution. 
  
 iv. Each of the Subordinated Lenders agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all such further reasonable instruments confirming the
irrevocable authorizations referred to in the foregoing clause (C) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request at any time. 
  
 v. Each of the Subordinated Lenders agrees not to initiate or prosecute, or encourage any other entity to initiate or prosecute, any claim, objection,
action or proceeding (or vote any claim in a Bankruptcy Case which would have the effect of) challenging or objecting to the enforceability of the Senior Indebtedness, any liens or security interests securing the Senior Indebtedness, any claim or
adequate protection rights granted or allowed by a bankruptcy court in favor of the Secured Parties, the terms of any proposed orders authorizing the use of cash collateral to which the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior
Indebtedness consent, or the terms of any proposed debtor-in-possession financing to be provided by any Secured Party or otherwise supported by the holders of a majority in the principal amount of the Senior Indebtedness in a Bankruptcy Case.

  
 vi. Each of the Subordinated Lenders agrees to execute,
verify, deliver and file any proofs of claim in respect of amounts owing under a Subordinated Claim requested by the Administrative Agent or its successors in connection with any Bankruptcy Case and irrevocably authorize, empower and appoint the
Administrative Agent as the Subordinated Lenders’ attorney-in-fact to execute, verify, deliver and file such proofs of claim and to vote such claims in any proceeding. In the event that the Administrative Agent or any such successor votes any
claim in accordance with the authority granted hereby, the Subordinated Lenders shall not be entitled to change or withdraw such vote. 
  
 f. REMEDIES. In the event that the Subordinated Lenders or the Parent fails to observe or perform any covenant or agreement to be observed or
performed hereunder, the Secured Parties and/or any agent(s) on their behalf may proceed to protect and enforce their rights by suit in equity or action at law, whether for specific performance of any term contained in these subordination
provisions, or for an injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in these subordination provisions or to enforce any other legal or equitable right of the Secured Parties, or to take any one or more
such actions. 
  
 g. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each of the
Subordinated Lenders, at its own cost, shall take any further action as the Senior Lenders or any agent thereof may reasonably request in order to carry out more fully the intent and purpose of these subordination provisions. 
  
 h. BINDING EFFECT; LEGENDS. This Agreement shall be a continuing
agreement, shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto from time to time and their respective successors and assigns, shall be irrevocable, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Senior Indebtedness shall
have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, the commitments under the Credit Agreement shall have been irrevocably terminated, all letters of credit issued pursuant to any Loan Document shall have expired or terminated and the Interest 

 

 24 

 Rate Agreements (as defined in the Credit Agreement) shall have been irrevocably terminated (the latest to occur of the
foregoing being referred to as the “Termination Date”), but shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be (and the Termination Date shall accordingly be extended), if any payment, or any part thereof, of any
amount paid by or on behalf of the Parent or the Borrowers with regard to any Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon or as a result of any Bankruptcy Case, or for any other reason, all as though such payments
had not been made. 
  
 Parent and each holder of Subordinated
Claims represents, warrants and agrees that the following legend will be and shall at all times remain placed conspicuously upon the face and signatures pages of the Notes and each other instrument evidencing any Subordinated Claim held by such
holder: 
  
 “The indebtedness and all obligations evidenced
or represented hereby, and certain other subordinated claims, are postponed, subordinated and junior in right of payment to Senior Indebtedness, as defined in and on the terms set forth in the Subordination Agreement dated as of June 13, 2003,
executed and delivered for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by the maker hereof, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, and certain other signatories thereto. The provisions of said agreement are hereby incorporated herein, as if
set forth at length herein and a copy of said agreement will be provided by Parent upon request.” 
  
 Parent agrees that neither Parent nor any of its subsidiaries shall at any time issue any promissory note in substitution, replacement or exchange for the
Notes or any such other instrument, and (notwithstanding any contrary agreement enforceable by any holder of Subordinated Claims) neither Parent nor any of its subsidiaries shall be obligated to issue any such promissory note or other instrument,
except only a promissory note that has such legend likewise placed thereon. 
  
 i. SUBROGATION. No payment or distribution to any holder of Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions hereof shall entitle the Subordinated Lenders to exercise any right of subrogation in respect thereof
until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness, the termination of all commitments under the Credit Agreement, the termination of all Interest Rate Agreements (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to which any Secured Party
is a party, and the termination or expiration of each letter of credit issued by any Secured Party pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document. Subject to and from and after the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness, the
termination of all commitments under the Credit Agreement, the termination of all Interest Rate Agreements to which any Secured Party is a party, and the termination or expiration of each letter of credit issued by any Secured Party pursuant to the
terms of any Loan Document, the Subordinated Lenders shall be subrogated to the rights of the Secured Parties to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Parent applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all amounts
owing on the Subordinated Credit Facility and the Notes shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the Secured Parties to which the Subordinated Lenders would be entitled but for the provisions hereof,
and no payments paid 
  

 25 

 over by the Subordinated Lenders to the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall, as among the Parent,
its creditors other than the Secured Parties, and the Subordinated Lenders, be deemed to be a payment or distribution on account of the Subordinated Credit Facility and the Notes. 
  
 j. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each of the Subordinated Lenders hereby represent and warrant to each present and
future holder of any Senior Indebtedness that (a) it and the other Subordinated Lenders party hereto all, collectively, own and are the sole holders of indebtedness outstanding under the Subordinated Credit Facility and the Notes, (b) it has duly
executed and delivered this Agreement, in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to it and all agreements binding upon it, with full power and authority to bind itself, and (c) this Agreement is binding upon and legally enforceable
