As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K, on January 29, 2007, Primus Telecommunications Group, Incorporated (“Group”), and Primus Telecommunications Holding, Inc. (“Holding”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Group, were served with a complaint by certain of the purported holders of Holding’s 8% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “Plaintiffs”) seeking the relief described below before the Court. The complaint effectively sought declaratory and injunctive relief to prevent, set aside or declare illegal or fraudulent certain transfers of funds allegedly made by Holding to Group and injunctive relief to prevent certain payments or disbursements of funds by Group in respect of outstanding obligations of Group that are payable, including the $22.7 million payable by Group (the “February 2007 Payment Obligation”) in respect of Group’s outstanding 5 3/4 % Convertible Subordinated Debentures due February 15, 2007.
On February 14, 2007, the claim for injunctive relief sought by the Plaintiffs was denied by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”) and on February 15, 2007, the February 2007 Payment Obligation was satisfied and paid.
On July 27, 2007, the remaining Plaintiffs filed with the Court their Notice of Dismissal, without prejudice, of all claims asserted against Group and Holding.
