               AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO LOAN AND NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

                  Amendment  No.  3 to Loan  and Note  Purchase  Agreement  (the
"Amendment") is entered into as of this 12th day of September, 2000 by and among
eGlobe,  Inc., a Delaware corporation  ("eGlobe" or "Parent"),  eGlobe Financing
Corporation,   a  Delaware  corporation  ("eGlobe  Financing"),   IDX  Financing
Corporation,  a  Delaware  corporation  ("IDX  Financing"),   Telekey  Financing
Corporation,  a Delaware  corporation  ("Telekey  Financing"  and together  with
eGlobe Financing and IDX Financing,  the "Financing  Companies"),  eGlobe/Coast,
Inc.,  a Delaware  corporation  ("eGlobe/Coast"),  and  EXTL-Special  Investment
Risks,  LLC, a Nevada limited liability  corporation,  including its predecessor
companies ("EXTL").

                  WHEREAS,    Parent,   the   Financing   Companies   and   EXTL
(collectively,  the "Debtors")  entered into a Loan and Note Purchase  Agreement
dated April 9, 1999, as amended by a letter agreement dated June 16, 1999 and as
further  amended by Amendments  No. 1 and 2 to Loan and Note Purchase  Agreement
(as amended,  the "Note  Purchase  Agreement"),  pursuant to which the Financing
Companies originally borrowed $20 million from EXTL as evidenced by a certain 5%
secured  note  dated as of June 30,  1999 (the  "Secured  Notes")  and a certain
revolving  note  dated as of June 30,  1999  based on the  balance  of  accounts
receivable (the "A/R Note");

                  WHEREAS,  in connection  with the  consummation  of its merger
with Coast International, eGlobe assumed Coast's obligations to repay promissory
notes  payable to Special  Investment  Risks,  LLC in the amount of  $3,250,000,
whether at maturity,  by  acceleration  or otherwise  (the  "Special  Investment
Notes");

                  WHEREAS,  Special  Investment  Risks, LLC has merged into EXTL
Investors, LLC, and both were affiliates of Ronald Jensen;

                  WHEREAS,  principal and interest under the Secured Notes,  the
A/R Note and the Special  Investment Notes  (collectively  the "Notes") has been
paid, although not always in a timely fashion under the terms thereof, and there
has been  confusion  and,  from time to time,  disagreement  about amounts owing
under the Notes, the appropriate timing of payments,  and other matters relating
to the proper management of the Notes;

                  WHEREAS,  the parties desire to make certain amendments to the
Note  Purchase  Agreement  and to the Notes  intended  to  preserve  for Special
Investment  and EXTL the  continuing  full benefit of the security  arrangements
contained therein and in the security agreements and other documents referred to
therein, while at the same time assuring the better management and governance of
the debt by the Parent and, in consequence,  to consolidate the Notes into a new
promissory  note which will  establish  a single  debt  instrument  and  payment
schedule (the "Amended and Restated Note").

<PAGE>

                  WHEREAS,  EXTL  has  committed  to  forbear,  for  the  period
beginning  on the date of this  Amendment  No. 3 and  ending on October 1, 2001,
from  exercising  its  right to  mandate  eGlobe  to enter  into an  involuntary
reorganization,  provided the Debtors comply with the terms of the Note Purchase
Agreement as amended hereby and the Amended and Restated Note;

                  NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

                  1. Capitalized  terms used herein and not defined herein shall
have the meaning ascribed to them in the Note Purchase Agreement.  All terms and
provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement,  as amended hereby, shall continue in
full force and effect, and are hereby confirmed in all respects.

                  2. The  parties  acknowledge  and  agree  that  the  following
amendments are hereby made to the Note Purchase Agreement:

                      2.1   A new  Section 6.1 (j) is  inserted as follows: "(j)
                            the  Company  shall  fail to  submit  the  following
                            monthly  reports on or before the 15th of each month
                            with   reference  to  the  period  ending  with  the
                            previous  calendar  month:  (1) a Status of Security
                            report,  setting forth a list of the material assets
                            of  Company  ;and  its  Subsidiaries,  all  material
                            additions  and  deletions  to  the  assets,  and  an
                            accounting of  receivables;  (2) a report on whether
                            or not all provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement
                            and the  Transaction  Documents  have been  complied
                            with,  and  specifying  any  non-compliance;  (3)  a
                            report on whether or not all provisions of any other
                            Indebtedness of the Company have been complied with,
                            and specifying any non-compliance; and, (4) a report
                            identifying  all  litigation in which the Company is
                            engaged." 2.2 In Section 7.2, the  definition of the
                            phrase "Note Interest Rate"  beginning with the word
                            "means" is deleted  and in lieu  thereof is inserted
                            the  following:  "means the prime  interest  rate as
                            reported  from  time  to  time  in the  Wall  Street
                            Journal plus two percentage points."

                      2.3   In Section 7.2, the phrase "Note  Overdue Rate" (but
                            not its  definition)  is deleted and in its place is
                            inserted the following: "Note Late Payment Rate".

                  3. The Parties agree that the Notes  previously  issued to the
benefit  of EXTL and  Special  Investments  by the Parent and one or more of its
subsidiaries are hereby amended,  restated and replaced in their entirety by the
Amended and  Restated  Secured Note (the  "Amended and Restated  Note") which is
being issued in connection  with the execution of this Amendment No. 3, the form
of which is  attached  hereto as Exhibit A. The Parties  further  agree that the
outstanding  principal  amount  under the  Amended  and  Restated  Note shall be
$15,000,000.00  (which amount represents the outstanding principal amount of the
Notes).  There remains outstanding  $1,000,000.00 in accrued and unpaid interest
thereon  following the application of $3,577,989.00 of Indebtedness  towards the
exercise of the Warrant as provided in Paragraph 4 below.

                  4. In consideration  for the reduction in the principal amount
due as reflected in the previous  paragraph,  eGlobe will permit the exercise of
the EXTL  warrant,  and the issuance of all  5,000,000  shares of eGlobe  Common
Stock  pursuant  to that  warrant,  contemporaneous  with  the  closing  of this
Amendment No. 3.

                  5. To secure the  indebtedness  of Debtor's  under the Amended
and Restated Note,  Debtors hereby grant to EXTL a continuing  security interest
in and to the  following,  whether  now  owned or  hereafter  acquired,  and all
products, proceeds, substitutions, and accessions of the following:

                      5.1   all accounts and accounts receivable;
                      5.2   all inventory;
                      5.3   all general intangibles  (excluding  software);

                      5.5   all goods;
                      5.6   all fixtures;
                      5.7   all chattel paper;
                      5.8   all letter-of-credit  rights;
                      5.9   all  investment  property,  instruments,  documents,

                      5.10  all payment intangibles;
                      5.11  all  leasehold  interests;  and
                      5.12  all  books  and  records  relating  to  any  of  the
                            foregoing.

All terms used in this  section  shall have the same  meaning as in the  Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted by the State of Texas (from time to time).

                  6.  Prepayment  of  Principal:  (a) EXTL  will  receive,  as a
payment  reducing the principal  amount due under the Amended and Restated Note,
15% of the net cash  proceeds  from the sale of the  business  and assets of the
long distance  telephone  business of  eGlobe/Coast;  (b) EXTL will receive,  as
payment  reducing the principal  amount due under the Amended and Restated Note,
15% of the net cash proceeds from the sale of the 4260 East Evans Avenue, Denver
Colorado  property;  (c) EXTL will receive,  as a payment reducing the principal
amount due under the Amended and Restated Note, 5% of the net cash proceeds from
any  equity  financing  (for  purposes  of  this  paragraph,  the  term  "equity
financing"  includes the current $6,000,000 held in escrow pending  registration
of eGlobe  securities);  and, (d) if EXTL receives payments  reducing  principal
under either (a) or (b) or (c),  then eGlobe will be relieved of its  obligation
under the Amended and Restated Note to make monthly principal payments up to the
amount of such funds received by EXTL.

                                       3

                  7. If Arnold  Gumowitz or his  affiliates  forbears and defers
rent  payments  for the premises in New York used by eGlobe due and payable from
and after September 15 forward, then EXTL will waive principal payments required
during  such period  (deferring  such  payments to July 1, 2002 or until  Arnold
Gumowitz or his  affiliates  are paid the amount  accrued during the term of the
forbearance, whichever comes first) in a ratio of the shares owned by the Arnold
Gumowitz and his affiliates  (including all members of his family) to the shares
owned by the EXTL and the members of the family of Ronald Jensen.

                  8. In  consideration  of the acts and  undertakings of EXTL in
this  Amendment  No. 3,  eGlobe  will  issue at  closing a Warrant  to  purchase
1,000,000  shares of eGlobe Common Stock @$1.94 per share expiring July 1, 2004.
The shares underlying the Warrant shall have reasonable and customary  piggyback

                  9.       eGlobe shall provide the following reports to EXTL:

                      9.1   Quarterly    un-audited    Financial     Statements,
                            contemporaneous  with the  filing  of form 10-Q with
                            the SEC

                      9.2   Annual audited Financial Statements, contemporaneous
                            with  the  filing  of  form  10-K  with  the SEC 9.3

                  10.  EXTL  will  have the  right to  declare  the  outstanding
principal  amount of the  Amended  and  Restated  Note  (together  with  accrued
interest)  immediately due and payable in the event of a Change of Control.  For
purposes of this paragraph,  a Change of Control will be deemed to have occurred
if any one or more of the following occurs:  (i) any person or group (as defined
under  applicable  securities  laws)  becomes  the  holder of 35% or more of the
voting  power or equity  interests  of the  Company  on a fully  diluted  basis,
assuming the  conversion of outstanding  convertible  securities and exercise of
outstanding  warrants and options  [other than options  granted  under  employee
stock plans] which have an exercise  price less than or equal to the then market

connection with the preparation of the loan documents, or in connection with the
perfection and maintenance of any liens thereunder.

                  12.      EXTL hereby waives all past defaults.

                  13. This  Amendment No. 3 to Loan and Note Purchase  Agreement

of which together constitute one and the same agreement.

                  14. All corporate law matters arising under this Amendment No.
3 to Loan and Note  Purchase  Agreement  shall be governed by and  construed  in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, and all other matters arising
under this Agreement  shall be governed by and construed in accordance  with the
laws of the  State of  Texas,  in each case  regardless  of the laws that  might
otherwise  govern under  applicable  principles of conflicts of law. Each of the
parties  consents to the  jurisdiction  of the federal  courts  whose  districts
encompass  any part of the  State of Texas or the  state  courts of the State of
Texas in connection  with any dispute arising under this Amendment No. 3 to Loan
and Note Purchase  Agreement and hereby waives,  to the maximum extent permitted
by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum non conveniens, to

$15,000,000.00                                                September 12, 2000

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, EGLOBE, INC., a Delaware corporation, EGLOBE/COAST,
INC.,  a  Delaware  corporation,   EGLOBE  FINANCING  CORPORATION,   a  Delaware
corporation,  IDX FINANCING  CORPORATION,  a Delaware  corporation,  and TELEKEY
FINANCING  CORPORATION,  a Delaware  corporation  (collectively,  the  "Maker"),
jointly and  severally  promise to pay to the order of  EXTL-SPECIAL  INVESTMENT
RISKS,  LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Nevada (the
"Holder"),  at 850 Cannon, Suite 200, Hurst, TX 76054, or at such other place as
the Holder of this Note may from time to time designate, the principal amount of
Fifteen  Million  United  States  Dollars  ($15,000,000.00),  together  with any
accrued  but unpaid  interest  thereon,  on the terms and  conditions  set forth
below.

         This Note is the Amended and Restated Secured Note ("Note") referred to
in Amendment No. 3 to the Loan and Note Purchase Agreement dated as of September
12,  2000,  by and among the Maker and the Holder,  such Loan and Note  Purchase
Agreement  as amended by  Amendments  Nos. 1, 2 and 3 to Loan and Note  Purchase
Agreement (the "Loan and Note Purchase  Agreement").  Capitalized terms used but
not  defined  herein  shall  have the  meanings  set  forth in the Loan and Note
Purchase Agreement.

         Principal  payments  in the  amount  of Fifty  Thousand  United  States
Dollars  ($50,000.00)  shall be payable in arrears on the  fifteenth day of each
month,  commencing on October 15, 2000, with the entire unpaid  principal amount
(together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) to be due and payable in
a single payment on the Note Maturity Date.

         This Note shall bear  interest on the unpaid  portion of the  principal
amount thereof,  and upon the interest accrued thereon each month, from the date
of issuance until the unpaid portion of the principal  shall have become due and
payable  (whether on the Note Maturity Date, by acceleration  or otherwise),  at
the Note Interest Rate. From and during the continuation of an Event of Default,
the unpaid  principal  balance of this Note  together  with  accrued  and unpaid
interest thereon shall bear interest at the Note Late Payment Rate.

         Whenever  any  payment  to be made  under or with  respect to this Note
shall be stated to be due on any day other than a Business Day, such payment may
be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in
such case be included in the computation of interest due on such date.

<PAGE>

         This Note may be prepaid without  premium or penalty,  at the option of
the Maker  exercised  by written  notice to the Holder,  at any time in whole or
from time to time in part in integral multiples of $100,000. Any prepayment will
be applied first to accrued interest and then to payment of principal.

         Interest  on this Note  shall be paid in cash.  Principal  of this Note
shall be paid in cash except as provided  in this  paragraph.  In the event that
(1) the Closing  Price of the Parent Common Stock on Nasdaq is $8.00 or more for
any 15 consecutive trading days during any period in which Notes are outstanding
that is not more  than  five  Business  Days  preceding  the  date of a  written
election made in accordance  with this sentence,  (2) the Parent closes a public
offering  of equity  securities  of the Parent at a price of at least  $5.00 per
share and with gross proceeds to the Parent of at least $30 million,  or (3) the
Parent closes a Qualified  Offering (at a price of at least $5.00 per share,  in
the case of an offering of equity  securities),  to the extent  permitted by the
Loan and Note Purchase  Agreement,  principal of this Note equal to up to 50% of
the original principal amount of this Note may be paid in Parent Common Stock at
the option of the Maker if a written  election to make such prepayment in Parent
Common  Stock is made by the Maker (and  delivered  to the Holder)  prior to the
date that is five Business Days after the  occurrence of the event  specified in
clauses  (1),  (2) or (3) of this  sentence.  For  purposes of payment in Parent
Common Stock,  each share of Parent Common Stock shall be valued as follows:  A)
if the Market Price of Parent  Common Stock is less than $6.00 as of the date of
payment,  the value of each share of Parent  Common Stock shall equal the Market
Price of Parent Common Stock (if the Market Price of Parent Common Stock is less
than $5.00 as of the date of payment,  Parent  Common  Stock may not be used for
such prepayment unless the issuance of the Parent Common Stock would not require
any Stockholder Approval that has not been obtained); or (B) if the Market Price
of  Parent  Common  Stock  is  greater  than or equal to $6.00 as of the date of
payment,  the value of each share of Parent Common Stock shall be $6.00. Payment
in the Parent  Stock  shall be made  within 15 days after the  election is made.
Until the Parent Stock is issued,  all monthly cash  installment  payments under
this Note shall be made without giving effect to any reduction in principal.

         This Note is secured by and shall be  entitled  to the  benefits of the
Security  Agreements.  In  addition,  this  Note is  guaranteed  by and shall be
entitled to the benefits of the Guaranty Agreement,  which in turn is secured by
and entitled to the benefits of the Parent Security Agreement.

         The occurrence of any Event of Default under and as defined in the Loan
and Note Purchase Agreement shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder.

         If an Event of Default  exists  hereunder,  the Holder may exercise any
right,  power or  remedy  which  the  Holder  may have  under  the Loan and Note
Purchase  Agreement if the  corresponding  Event of Default  exists under and as
defined in the Loan and Note Purchase Agreement.

                                        2

<PAGE>

         In the event the interest  provisions hereof or any exactions  provided
for  herein  or in the Loan and  Note  Purchase  Agreement  shall  result  in an
effective rate of interest which,  for any period of time,  exceeds the limit of
any usury or other law applicable to the transactions evidenced hereby, all sums
in excess of those  lawfully  collectible as interest for the period in question
shall,  without further  agreement or notice between or by any party hereto,  be
applied toward  repayment of outstanding  principal  immediately upon receipt of
such  moneys by the  Holder  with the same  force and effect as if the Maker had
specifically  designated  such extra sums to be so applied to principal  and the
Holder had agreed to accept such extra  payments in repayment  of the  principal
balance hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  however,  the Holder may at any
time and from time to time elect,  by notice in writing to the Maker,  to reduce
or limit the  collection  of any interest to such sums which shall not result in
any payment of interest in excess of that lawfully collectable. The Maker agrees
that in determining  whether or not any interest payable under this Note exceeds
the highest rate permitted by law, any non-principal  payment shall be deemed to
the extent permitted by law to be an expense,  fee,  premium or penalty,  rather
than interest.
