GENERAL

 

Item 1. General Information.

 

(a) and (b) The applicant, Primus Telecommunications Group, Incorporated (the “Company”), is a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware.

 

Item 2. Securities Act Exemption Applicable.

 

The Company may issue up to $50,119,000 principal amount of its Step Up Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2009 (the “New Debentures”). The New Debentures will be issued in exchange for equal principal amounts of the Company’s 5 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2007 (the “Old Debentures”). The Company may issue the New Debentures in one or more transactions with holders of the Old Debentures pursuant to an exchange agreement, the form of which will be filed with an amendment to this Form T-3. The Company was approached by a holder of a majority of the Old Debentures proposing an exchange of its Old Debentures for new debt securities, and thereafter the Company has had discussions with that holder about a potential exchange of its Old Debentures for New Debentures. It may also issue New Debentures in an exchange offer to all holders of Old Debentures, although it presently has no plans to do so. The New Debentures will be issued under the indenture (the “Indenture”) to be qualified by this Application for Qualification (this “Application”). For more detailed information on the Indenture, see Item 8 of this Application. No exchanges of Old Debentures will be accepted before the effective date of this Application.

 

The New Debentures will be issued by the Company to existing holders of the Old Debentures in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded by Section 3(a)(9) thereof. There have not been any sales of securities of the same class as the New Debentures by the Company, nor are there any such other sales planned by or through an underwriter at or about the time of the exchanges. No commission or other remuneration will be paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting the exchange of New Debentures for Old Debentures.

INDENTURE SECURITIES

 

Item 8. Analysis of Indenture Provisions.

 

The New Debentures will be subject to the Indenture. The following is a general description of certain provisions of the Indenture filed as an exhibit hereto. The description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture. Capitalized terms used below and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.

 

(a) Events of Default

 

Each of the following constitutes an event of default under the Indenture:

 

  (1) default in the payment of interest on the New Debentures when due and payable and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;

 

  (2) default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) any debenture at its stated maturity upon acceleration or otherwise;

 

  (3) default in the payment of principal or interest on New Debentures required to be purchased by the Company as set forth in the Indenture;

 

  (4) default in the performance of or breach of any other of our covenants or agreements in the Indenture or under the New Debentures (other than a default specified in clause (1), (2) or (3) above) and such default or breach continues for a period of 30 consecutive days after written notice by the trustee or the holders of 25% or more in aggregate principal amount of the New Debentures;

 

  (5) there occurs with respect to any issue or issues of Indebtedness of the Company or certain subsidiaries of the Company having an outstanding principal amount of $25.0 million or more in the aggregate for all such issues, whether such Indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created,

 

  (A) an event of default that has caused the holder thereof to declare such Indebtedness to be due and payable prior to its stated maturity and such Indebtedness has not been discharged in full or such acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled by the earlier of (i) the expiration of any applicable grace period or (ii) the thirtieth day after such default; and/or

 

  (B) the failure to make a principal payment at the final (but not any interim) fixed maturity and such defaulted payment shall not have been made, waived or extended by the earlier of (i) the expiration of any applicable grace period or (ii) the thirtieth day after such default;

 

8


  (6) any final judgment or order (not covered by insurance) for the payment of money in excess of $25.0 million in the aggregate for all such final judgments or orders against all such persons (treating any deductibles, self-insurance or retention as not so covered) shall be rendered against the Company or certain subsidiaries of the Company and shall not be paid or discharged, and there shall be any period of 30 consecutive days following entry of the final judgment or order that causes the aggregate amount for all such final judgments or orders outstanding and not paid or discharged against all such persons to exceed $25.0 million during which a stay of enforcement of such final judgment or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect;

 

  (7) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters a decree or order for

 

  (A) relief in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect,

 

  (B) appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company or for all or substantially all of the Company’s property and assets or those of our Significant Subsidiaries, or

 

  (C) the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company,

 

and, in each case, such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 30 consecutive days; or

 

  (8) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company

 

  (A) commences a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law,

 

  (B) consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company or for all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company, or

 

  (C) effects any general assignment for the benefit of creditors.

 

The Indenture will provide that the trustee shall, within 90 days of the occurrence of a default, give to the registered holders of the New Debentures notice of all uncured defaults known to it, but the trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if it, in good faith, determines that the withholding of such notice is in the best interest of such registered holders, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any of the New Debentures when due or in the payment of any redemption or repurchase obligation.

 

If an event of default specified in clauses (7) or (8) above occurs and is continuing, then automatically the principal of all the New Debentures and the interest thereon shall

 

9


become immediately due and payable. If an event of default shall occur and be continuing, other than with respect to clauses (7) or (8) above (the default not having been cured or waived as set forth in the Indenture), the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the New Debentures then outstanding may declare the New Debentures due and payable at their principal amount together with accrued interest, and thereupon the trustee may, at its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the holders of New Debentures by appropriate judicial proceedings. Such declaration may be rescinded or annulled either with the written consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the New Debentures then outstanding or a majority in aggregate principal amount of the New Debentures represented at a meeting at which a quorum (as set forth in the Indenture) is present, in each case upon the conditions provided in the Indenture. In the event of a declaration of acceleration because an Event of Default set forth in clause (5) above has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness, and written notice of such discharge or rescission, as the case may be, shall have been given to the trustee by us and countersigned by the holders of such Indebtedness or a trustee, fiduciary or agent for such holders, within 60 days after such declaration of acceleration in respect of the New Debentures, and no other Event of Default has occurred during such 60-day period which has not been cured or waived during such period.

 

The Indenture contains a provision entitling the trustee, subject to the duty of the trustee during default to act with the required standard of care, to be indemnified by the holders of New Debentures before proceeding to exercise any right or power under the Indenture at the request of such holders. The Indenture provides that the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the New Debentures then outstanding through their written consent, or the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the New Debentures then outstanding represented at a meeting at which a quorum is present by a written resolution, may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the trustee.

 

(b) Authentication and Delivery of the New Debentures; Use of Proceeds

 

Two Officers shall execute the New Debentures on behalf of the Company by manual or facsimile signature. For this purpose, “Officer” shall mean Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Financial Officer, the Treasurer, any Vice President or the Secretary of the Company. If an Officer whose signature is on a New Note no longer holds that office at the time the New Note is authenticated, the New Note shall be valid nevertheless.

 

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of the Indenture, the Company may deliver New Debentures executed by the Company to the trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order (as defined in the Indenture) for the authentication and delivery of such New Debentures, and the trustee in accordance with such

 

10


Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such New Debentures as in the Indenture provided and not otherwise.

 

Each New Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

 

No New Debentures shall be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such New Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in the Indenture executed by or on behalf of the trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any New Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such New Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under the Indenture.

 

The trustee may appoint an authenticating agent or agents reasonably acceptable to the Company with respect to the New Debentures. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate New Debentures whenever the trustee may do so. Each reference in the Indenture to authentication by the trustee includes authentication by such agent.

 

The New Debentures are being offered in exchange for the Old Debentures. Consequently, the Company will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the New Debentures.

 

(c) Release and Substitution of Any Property Subject to the Lien of the Indenture

 

The New Debentures are unsecured obligations of the Company. As such, the New Debentures are not secured by any lien on any property.

 

(d) Satisfaction and Discharge

 

The Company may satisfy and discharge its obligations under the Indenture while New Debentures remain outstanding, subject to certain conditions, if:

 

    all outstanding New Debentures will become due and payable at their scheduled maturity within one year;

 

    all outstanding New Debentures are scheduled for redemption within one year,

 

and, in either case, the Company has deposited with the trustee an amount sufficient to pay and discharge all outstanding New Debentures on the date of their scheduled maturity.

 

(e) Evidence Required to be Furnished by the Company upon the Indenture Securities to the Trustee as to Compliance with the Conditions and Covenants Provided for in the Indenture

 

The Company shall deliver to the trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an Officer’s Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) signed by two Officers of the Company stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Company, they would normally have knowledge of any failure by the Company to comply with all conditions, or Default by the Company with respect to any covenants, under this

 

11


Indenture, and further stating whether or not they have knowledge of any such failure or default and, if so, specifying each such failure or Default and the nature thereof. In the event an Officer of the Company comes to have actual knowledge of a Default, regardless of the date, the Company shall deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the trustee within five Business Days of obtaining such actual knowledge specifying such Default and the nature and status thereof.

 

Item 9. Other Obligors.

 

None.
