  2. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • The team has partially completed the work laid out in Phase 1 of the project work plan. Specifically, we have begun to test product competitiveness and develop a framework to prioritize customer segments • Most of the current EBS bandwidth are relatively disadvantaged (technically) on a standalone basis. Furthermore, these products tend to be purchased as part of datacom bundles by enterprise customers. As a result, we believe the Enterprise group should take a highly targeted approach to the market in 2001 • On the product side, the initial hypothesis is that bundles involving (i) transport or transit coupled with creative pricing and financing structures or (ii) “virtual data centers” that leverage underutilized EBS POP assets are likely to generate the most significant 2001 margin opportunities • A preliminary assessment suggests that MediaCast will not present significant near-term opportunities, given the underlying size of the market and the EBS product development timetable. However, streaming products are likely to present more significant opportunities in 2002 and 2003 • Given the challenges that EBS will face in generating significant interest in basic transport and transit products, early customer acceptance will likely stem from creative deal structuring involving such attributes as • Innovative risk management tools (e.g., virtual data centers) • Creative pricing (e.g., peak/off-peak) • Cash or earnings management (e.g., blend and extend, monetizations) • Assuming this product hypothesis under further analysis, we believe the Enterprise group should target customer segments that will be most receptive to EBS’ advantages. In particular, the most promising customer segments will likely be those that (i) are willing to buy unbundled telecom solutions, (ii) influence significant datacom spend, and (iii) have financially-focused management. Using this screening logic, target segments include • Large accounts currently targeted (e.g., Yahoo!, EDS, IBM, and others) • System integrators focused on network management (e.g., Telcordia, SHL Systemhouse) • Outsourcers with an exposure to data center buildout risk (e.g., Perot Systems, Unisys) • Publicly-traded, bandwidth-intensive software companies (e.g., Oracle, Siebel)

  9. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt KEY BUYING CRITERIA FOR ENTERPRISE DATA CUSTOMERS • Definition • Breadth and depth of product offering • Breadth and depth of network coverage (e.g., quality and quantity of connections and traffic) • North America • Globally • Provisioning and other delivery capabilities, including fault notification/repair, directly related to initiating and maintaining service • Sales support capabilities (e.g., engineering) • Standard or negotiated specifications for service quality • Generally measurable statistics to determine compliance • Example metrics include latency, network availability, lost packets, provisioning time • Price per service/volume • Beyond pure price, contract/service flexibility is also a consideration • Brand recognition • Proven track record Product and Network SLA Price Reputation

  10. PRELIMINARY txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OF IP TRANSIT • EBS’ value proposition to the enterprise • EBS IP transit products provide Internet connectivity primarily over Level 3’s cloud/peering agreements. EBS also offers/plans to offer much more significant flexibility in price/volume terms (e.g., peak/off peak, etc.) Similar to Level 3, EBS prices at a significant discount relative to standard pricing levels of incumbents/leading providers • Competitive assessment of key product attributes • Implications • Challenges like network, footprint and operational credibility will likely continue in the the next 12 months • As a result, EBS has a challenge in distinguishing itself from incumbents and other discounters like Level 3. Differentiation will likely depend on • Innovative price terms • Bundles including finance and structuring • Product/ • network • SLA • Price • Reputation • Limited reach and limited peering relationships relative to leading players • Longer provisioning lead-times • Unable to provide bundled solution (hosting, network management services) • By definition, close to parity with Level 3 • Level 3/EBS lag behind industry leaders on relative performance metrics • Discounts of up to 50%relative to leading provider pricing and 30% to Level 3 • Wide range of price/ volume flexibility (peak/off-peak) • EBS lacks reputation as trusted provider and is unlikely to gain one soon, given its reseller position

  13. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OF POINT-TO-POINT CIRCUITS • EBS’ value proposition to the enterprise • EBS provides point-to-point connectivity, specifically TDM circuits to enterprises managing/operating their own private line WAN • Competitive assessment of key product attributes • Implications • EBS will likely continue to face significant competitive challenges in offering circuits to enterprises as a stand-alone product as customer seek bundled data serves • 2001 target customers should be those who manage own communications infrastructure and discretely purchase private line circuits • A compelling value proposition will likely depend on a tie-in with other products/ services or a finance/structuring lead • Product/ • network • SLA • Price • Reputation • TDM circuits available for limited city pairs • EBS lacks ability to sell the “bundle”, which many customers seek • Off-net provisioning unclear • North America footprint has limited POPs to connect customers • Wasabi I/II efforts currently underway will improve ability to provision circuit by early 2001 • EBS has been underbid (Cisco-deal) recently (by as much as 50%) • Illiquid books for city pairs may impair pricing • Limited ability to price competitively as a reseller • EBS not viewed as leader in delivery or price in the marketplace

  14. PRELIMINARY txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OF IPNet Connect • EBS’ value proposition to the enterprise • IPNet Connect provides WAN connectivity and a “platform” for IP-VPN services to enterprises via transport over EBS’ private IP network. EBS can connect enterprises to branch offices, suppliers, and other dedicated sites. Over the all-IP network, EBS will enable prioritization of traffic by the customer. EBS offers managed (where router/CPE is upplied and operated by EBS) and un-managed service • Competitive assessment • Implications • Network • SLA • Price • Reputation • Reach limited to 20 U.S. cities • Internet remote access not supported (Internet access to WAN) • Platform offering forces customer to source evenly IP-VPN functionality • Priority routing of on-net traffic (2 priorities only) • Tunneling/security not supported • To be determined by EBS • Several providers have 1-2 year lead on EBS in IP-VPN • Customers that manage own security are attractive • “Platform only” offering disadvantaged versus turnkey IP-VPN solutions offered by competitors • Limited footprint significantly decreases product attractiveness/applicability • Mark-to-market opportunity may be limited as service runs on EBS network • May be a small opportunity in 2001 given overall IP-VPN • Customer traffic destined for non-WAN IP addresses “surfing” • Public Internet cloud • CHI POP • EBS private IP cloud – 20 U.S. cities • LA POP • NYC POP • >DS-3 • Local loop from RBOC/other • >DS-3 • Local loop R R R R • Enterprise HQ • POP • Branch office • Existing/planned customers • DFW POP • Andersen Consulting and i2 to go live 1Q01 • Both deals connect limited sites (2-4) initially • i2 to bring on European/Asian sites by 2Q01 • EBS private IP network • carries all customer traffic destined for WAN IP addresses R • Supplier • Remote access user not supported for IP-VPN solution

  15. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt IP-VPN LANDSCAPE Primary consideration slowing adoption of IP.UPN • Key factors driving IP-VPN replacement of legacy data services* • Differentiating criteria for IP-VPN offerings • SLA • Security • Legacy data • Network availability • Encryption security/IPS • Authenti-cation • IP-VPN • Latency • Firewall • Applications supported • WAN remote access • Security • Scaling/ flexibility • Different applications better suited for specific services • ATM for video • Private line for voice • Traditional PSTN-based solution • Dial-up to modem bank-server • Well-established/ trusted security protocols • Security handled in the network • Long lead times/ costs associated with adding sites/ capacity • All applications treated equally (as IP packets) • Traffic prioritization/ labeling enables service levers • Access through ISP (DSL, cable, dial-up) • “Tunnel” through Public Internet to access WAN • Lack of standards for security • Network and client -based options for security • Relatively simple and inexpensive provisioning of sites and capacity • UUNet • Sprint • Qwest • PSINet • Genuity • AT&T • 99.9% • 100% • 100% • N/A • 99.9% • 99.9% • 120ms • 75ms • 25ms • N/A • 125ms • 80ms • Xedig • Check Point • Raptor • Check Point • Raptor • Check Point • Watch guard? • Site Patrol • Check Point • Watch guard? • Firebox • Check Point • DES • Triple DES • Not supported • DES • Triple DES • Not supported • Triple DES • Digital/ certificates • IP See • Yes • No • Yes • Yes • Yes • Yes • Leading players offer IP-VPN security in the form of firewalls, encryption (IPSec) and authentication * Legacy data services include ATM, Frame Relay, and Private Line networks Source: IDC

  16. PRELIMINARY txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OF STORAGE • EBS’ value proposition to storage customers • EBS, in reselling managed storage capacity, provides flexibility in terms of quantity and length of contract, and competitive pricing. In addition, EBS further provides distinctiveness by structuring and bundling additional EBS products (e.g., bandwidth, finance) • Primary target is the SI channel , since these companies buy at sufficient scale to meet EBS target deal size and will likely see a position to value in EBS price terms. In addition, SI storage spend estimated to be 4x the size of SSP market in 2001 • Business model • Description • Product offering • Managed storage capacity with flexible quantity and length of contract terms • Risk management and structuring with other EBS products (e.g., bandwidth, finance) • Primary target customer: system integrator channel • SIs already own enterprise customer relationship • SIs managed storage spend for 2001 is estimated at $2.6 billion in the U.S. (vs. SSP market estimated at $0.6 billion) • Implications • SSPs serve as enablers, of sales to enterprises • Systems integrators could be leveraged as a channel to enterprises for “pay as you go” storage product • EBS’ key distinctiveness is insight in pricing of components that underly managed storage capacity (e.g., forward curves on equipment, storage capacity demand, cost of storage per unit of managed capacity), flexibility in contract terms as well as structuring • EBS must still leverage the expertise and value-added managed storage services provided by SSPs • SIs can tailor and deliver the product to enterprises • SSP managed storage capacity • EBS risk management and structuring • SI • Customer • Customer

  19. PRELIMINARY txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OF MEDIA CAST/STREAMING • EBS’ value proposition • Enable and support streaming media to “Enterprise.coms” and corporate intranets while providing enhanced QoS (on-net only) • Assessment of key product attributes • 2000 content delivery services market share • Percent • Implications: • MediaCast’s product development trajectory may limit immediate opportunity • The 2001 market does not appear to be large enough to create material earnings and Enterprises unlikely to sign longer-term deals until application infrastructure solution is clear • While streaming will eventually be adopted by enterprises, many structural factors must change first: • Lack of bandwidth in the LAN • Legacy integration issues • EBS? • Footprint: EBS has deployed 300 servers (~10% of Akamai) • Product suite (large enterprises): EBS does not currently provide content creation, editing, storage, or distribution • QoS: EBS cannot offer distinctive QOS on public Internet • Market • Top 20 Web sites (90% of market) use Akamai/iBeam • for large enterprises, legacy IT infrastructure and CIO concerns re complexity slow adoption • iBeam • Akamai • Digital Island • U.S. content delivery revenues* • $ Millions • 2001 • 2003 * Excludes hardware/software sales by vendors like Inktomi and CacheFlow Source: IDC; Goldman Sachs; ING Baring; CIBC; Piper Jaffrey; McKinsey estimates

  20. PRELIMINARY txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OF VIRTUAL DATA CENTERS AND DATA CENTER MONETIZATIONS • Virtual data centers • Data center monetizations • EBS’ value proposition to the enterprise • Provide on-demand (sell a call option on) data center capacity to mitigate build-out risk • EBS’ value proposition to the enterprise • Provide incremental borrowing capacity above traditional lenders • Assessment • + Short position • + Leverages underutilized EBS POPs • – EBS POPs likely to be smaller than minimum economic facility size (~100,000 sq. ft.) • – Unlikely to be a long term source of value given EBS’ limited inventory of POPs • Assessment • + EBS may have unique insight into data center valuations • – Banks may require that EBS finance a portion of “loan on balance sheet” • Implications • Risk profile will be idiosyncratic to each deal; however, some counterparties are likely to meet all criteria (credit, etc.) • Implications • Most likely to gain acceptance from enterprise.coms and HSPs

  21. Finance and structuring Horizontal services Network management and services Enhanced transport and access services Basic voice and data services txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt PRODUCT COMPETITIVENESS IMPLICATIONS • Overall hypothesis • From the perspective of most Enterprise customers, EBS will likely be perceived as narrowly focused and relatively disadvantaged (technically) as a bandwidth and storage provider • EBS’ distinctiveness centers around: • Risk management such as innovative pricing regimes (e.g., peak and off-peak) and optionality (e.g., storage call options) • Structured cash and earnings management (e.g., contract and data center monetizations) • Discounted pricing on transit and transport • Several product hypotheses merit further exploration: • Bandwidth monetizations • Data center monetizations • Virtual data centers • Storage Source: McKinsey analysis

  39. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OF SWEET SPOT CUSTOMER SEGMENTS • Attractive as both customer and channel • Second tier and telecom – centric players appear worthy of additional focus • Attractive as customer but limited number of targets meeting minimum size-centers • May also “pull through” bandwidth by developing new distributed applications • Attractive as customer but limited number of companies meeting minimum size criteria • Most companies meeting screens, are already targeted • Attractive as a customer • Limited number of non-wholesale pureplays passing screen • SSI • Software • Enterprise.com • HSP

  40. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt 2001 GO TO MARKET PRIORITIZATION PRELIMINARY – FOR DISCUSSION • Continuum of focus • Customer segment • Comment • Systematic • Opportunistic • Large “named accounts” • SI’s focused on network management • Outsourcers with data center build-out risk exposure • Publicly-traded software companies • Customers in high potential verticals but with MTM of $1-2.5 million • Start-ups with potential for large future bandwidth consumption • Most currently in discussion with EBS today (e.g., Yahoo!) • Not currently being targeted but likely to be seeking “a competitive edge” • Learnings from larger customers will inform discussions and pricing here • Minimize focus unless compelling reasons to the contrary

  41. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt TODAY’S DISCUSSION • Product hypothesis • Customer segment prioritization • Next steps

  42. txho/enx116/01204 enx116.ppt NEXT STEPS • Complete customer prioritization and product development • Confirm preliminary product assessment and revise product hypothesis • Develop economic model for attractive deal structures • Confirm initial customer prioritization and develop diagnostic tools • Develop go-to-market strategy • Test acceptance of product hypothesis with customers • Revise product attributes/deal structures as needed • Identify capabilities needed to deliver products • Fill capability gaps as needed • Prioritize origination teams on highest potential customer segments • Target marquee accounts • Carefully monitor any resources dedicated to nascent startups or companies with a small chance of contributing to 2001 margins • As the Enterprise team further develops its priorities for 2001, we recommend that you continue to analyze the following questions: • Which customer segments will likely be most responsive to EBS’ relative advantages (creative pricing and deal structures for transit, transport, and storage products that are not part of a broader, bundled service package)? • What deal structures are generating the most interest within these target market segments? • How will the EBS’ network capabilities and product suite change during 2001? What influence will this have on the relative attractiveness of EBS’ transit/transport and other product offerings? • Are the potential markets for streaming/MediaCast and storage large enough in 2001 to justify significant effort to sell these products? • How can EBS best communicate and leverage its price/performance story? • How can origination best influence product development and network capabilities? • Is there a need for a new product management function that spans trading/origination/network?
