In re:  Forbearance under Loan and Note Purchase Agreement

Dear Mr. Vizas,

We are writing with regard to the Loan and Note Purchase Agreement,  as amended,
entered  into 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"),  and EXTL Investors,  LLC, a Nevada limited  liability  corporation
("EXTL Investors").

eGlobe, the Financing  Companies and EXTL Investors 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  (collectively,  the  "Note  Purchase  Agreement").  Special
Investment  Risks LLC has also  loaned  eGlobe  funds and its notes and  accrued
interest thereon are incorporated in the  aforementioned  restructuring  Special
Investment  Risks,  LLC as merged into EXTL  Investment LLC on this date and its
name changed to EXTL-Special Investments Risks LLC.

We have  agreed  with you to  restructure  the payment and other terms under the
Secured Notes, the A/R Note and the Special  Investment Notes  (collectively the
"Notes").  We have agreed to the  attached  set of terms (the "Term  Sheet") for
restructuring the Notes and related agreements. In light of that and of our past
experience in concluding  arrangements  with eGlobe,  and in  recognition of our
substantial equity commitment to eGlobe as well as our extension of credit under
the Note  Purchase  Agreement,  EXTL  Investors  LLC hereby  commits to forbear,
during the period beginning today and ending on October 1, 2001, from exercising
its right to mandate eGlobe,  Inc. to enter into an involuntary  reorganization,
provided  that eGlobe  complies  with the terms of the  restructured  lending as
reflected in the Term Sheet and that the operations of eGlobe, Inc. as conducted
at the date of this  letter,  do not  change in a manner  that is  substantially
adverse to the investments of EXTL-Special Investments Risks LLC.

                                           Sincerely,

                                           EXTL-Special Investments Risks LLC

                                           By:__________________________________
                                           Name/Title:__________________________






                                   Term Sheet

Facility:         Amended  and  Restated  Loan  and  Note  Purchase   Agreement,
                  amending  the Loan and Note  Purchase  Agreement  dated  April
                  9,1999, as amended, and related Notes and documentation.

Creditors:        EXTL Investors,  LLC and Special  Investment  Risks, LLC - the
                  LLCs have merged  into one company  owned by Ronald and Gladys

                  LLC.

                  Telekey Financing Corporation

                  payments  since  January  1,  2000  have  been  treated  as  a
                  reduction in principal, not as interest payments.

Reduction of Current Note effective  September 15, 2000:  EXTL will exercise its
                  warrant to purchase  5,000,000  shares of eGlobe  Common Stock
                  contemporaneous  with closing on the Amended and Restated Loan
                  and Note Purchase Agreement. It will fund the exercise through

                  indebtedness,  resulting in a remaining note  indebtedness  of
                  $15,000,000.  The  balance of accrued  and unpaid  interest at
                  September 15, 2000 is $1,000.000.

                  month  (beginning  October 1, 2000 on  $15,000,000) at 1/12 of
                  the prime rate plus 2%. The same procedure  shall apply to the
                  accrued  interest  amount   (beginning   October  1,  2000  on

                  15th of each month,  first  payment on October 15,  2000;  the
                  residual unpaid  principal will be paid at maturity.  Interest
                  will  accrue  monthly  on the unpaid  principal  and on unpaid
                  Interest and be paid at maturity.
                  (2) Lender will receive 15% of the net cash  proceeds from the
                  sale of the  business and assets of Coast as paid by buyers of
                  Coast.
                  (3) Lender will receive 5% of the net cash  proceeds  from any

                  against payments made under 2 and 3 if these payments together
                  with  $50,000  monthly  payments  previously  made  exceed the
                  cumulative  monthly payments  beginning October 15, 2000 times

                  and payable from September 15 forward,  then Lender will waive
                  principal payments required currently (deferring such payments
                  to  July  1,  2002  or  until  Gumowitz  family  is  paid  the
                  forbearance,  which ever comes first) in a ratio of the shares
