          Re: Severance

Dear Eric:

          This letter is being provided to you as a binding commitment undertaken by Globix Corporation (the “Company”) to provide you with the payment of severance upon the occurrence of certain events. Pursuant to the unanimous approval by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, you shall receive a severance payment equal to one year’s base salary in the event that (i) you are actually or constructively terminated from employment with the Company without cause within one year following a Change of Control of the Company, as defined in the Company’s 2003 Stock Option Plan; or (ii) you are required to relocate your primary place of business to a location further than sixty (60) miles outside of Westborough, Massachusetts. For purposes of the severance payment contemplated hereby, one year’s base salary shall consist of your annual salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control. Constructive termination shall consist of a diminution of responsibilities and a substantial decrease in compensation. The period of exercisability for all options held by you that are exercisable upon a termination of employment described in clauses (i) or (ii) above shall be six months following the date of such termination of employment.
