Preferred and 60,520 shares of Class I Preferred, respectively, for a price of

The consummation of the purchase of the Class II Preferred was conditioned upon,

share or $10,100,000 in the aggregate.

to a Certificate of Designation, Number, Powers, Preferences and Relative,

Stock of IFX Corporation, filed with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware on June 15, 2000, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit
