Per the announcement they just sent via e-mail.  Looks to be posted on 
<URL:http://www.360.net/> as well.

        This appears to be a very good thing for NetRail.

        Also from www.360.net:

        "360networks announced it will not make a US $10.9 million
        interest payment due today on its 12.5% Senior Notes.  Under 
        the terms of the debt, 360networks has another 30 days to 
        make the payment in order to avoid default consequences 
        under the Notes."
