Primus Guaranty, Ltd. (“Primus Guaranty” or “the Company”) (NYSE:PRS) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved the voluntary de-listing of its common shares (NYSE:PRS) (“Shares”), its Preferred Share Purchase Rights (“Rights”) and its 7% senior notes due 2036 (NYSE:PRD) (“Notes”) from the New York Stock Exchange and the voluntary de-registration of its Shares, Rights and Notes under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Company expects to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2011 in the first quarter of 2012 and thereafter cease filing reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company’s Board of Directors authorized the de-listing and de-registration of the Company’s Shares, Rights and Notes after concluding that the consequences of remaining an SEC-reporting company, including the costs associated with regulatory compliance, outweighed the current benefits of public company status to the Company and its securityholders. The Company’s Board of Directors believes that the expense reductions inherent in de-listing and de-registering its Shares, Rights and Notes will benefit the Company and its securityholders, and further the Company’s previously announced strategy of reducing its operating expenses.
In deciding to voluntarily de-list and de-register the Shares, Rights and Notes, the Company’s Board of Directors considered several factors, including the following:
The Company anticipates that following de-listing, its Shares, Rights and Notes will be quoted in the OTC Pink market, a centralized electronic quotation service for over-the-counter securities, so long as market makers demonstrate an interest in trading in the Company’s Shares, Rights and Notes. The Company can provide no assurance that trading in its Shares, Rights or Notes will continue in the OTC Pink or in any other forum.
The Company will continue to prepare and present to shareholders audited annual financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, as required by the Company’s Bye-Laws and the Companies Act, 1981 of Bermuda. The Company also intends to continue to produce unaudited quarterly interim condensed financial statements. The audited annual and unaudited interim quarterly financial statements, press releases and other information of interest to investors will continue to be available on its Web site at www.primusguaranty.com and are expected to be posted on the OTC Markets’ OTC Disclosure and News Service portal.
The Company reserves the right to delay or withdraw its filings with the SEC for any reason prior to their effectiveness.
