▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ issued a press release and intends to mail a supplement to its stockholders announcing the terms of this Agreement;

F. Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the parties are entering into a purchase agreement, whereby each Holder is purchasing New Notes from Holding in amounts listed on Schedule I (the “New Note Purchase”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Such payment shall be made within three business days following the Closing Date.

1.3 In exchange for the transfer, sale and assignment of the Old Notes by each Holder to Primus, Primus shall deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder the principal amount of New Notes as set forth on such Holder’s Schedule I hereto. New Notes shall be issued only in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof, and no fractional interests in New Notes shall be issued.

1.4 The New Notes shall be subject to an indenture with a trustee of national standing selected by Primus, which indenture shall be substantially in the form of the indenture used for Primus’s Step-Up Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009, conformed to the terms set forth on Exhibit A, together with such changes agreed to in writing by Primus and the Holders. Primus and Holding shall enter into a registration rights agreement with each Holder on customary terms and conditions, including those on Exhibit ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Holding and each Holder shall execute and/or deliver such other documents and agreements as are customary and reasonably necessary to effectuate the Exchange in connection with the Closing.

3.2 Authorization and Binding Obligation. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which it will be a party and the performance by such Holder of its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action, and no other organizational proceedings on its part are necessary for the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which it will be party and the performance of its obligations provided for herein and therein. This Agreement has been, and any other Transaction Documents to which it is a party will be, duly executed and delivered by it and, assuming this Agreement and such other Transaction Documents are binding obligations of Primus and Holding, as applicable, this Agreement and such other Transaction Documents will constitute valid and binding obligations of it enforceable against it in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

3.3 Ownership of Securities. Such Holder owns, beneficially, all of the Old Notes set forth in Column I on such Holder’s Schedule I attached hereto. Such Holder owns all of such Old Notes free and clear of any Liens (other than the obligations pursuant to this Agreement). Without limiting the foregoing, except for such Holder’s obligations under this Agreement, such Holder has sole power of disposition with respect to all such Old Notes, with no restrictions on its rights of disposition pertaining thereto and no person or entity other than such Holder has any right to direct or approve the disposition of any such Old Notes. All of such Holder’s Old Notes are held for the account of such Holder by the entity named on its signature page of this Agreement.

3.4 New Notes Not Registered. Such Holder understands that the New Notes, when issued, will not have been registered under the Securities Act and are issued in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, which depends upon, among other things, the accuracy of the representations of such Holder as expressed herein. Such Holder is not acquiring the New Notes with a view to any distribution thereof or with any present intention of offering or selling any of the New Notes in a transaction that would violate the Securities Act or the securities laws of any State of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction. Such Holder has not offered, sold or delivered the New Notes to be acquired by such Holder, and will not offer, sell or deliver the New Notes except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration to the extent available under the Securities Act.

[TERM SHEET]

EXHIBIT B

Registration Rights

We have agreed to file with the SEC, at our expense, the shelf registration statement covering resales by holders of the new Notes and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes. Such registration rights shall be for the benefit of the Holder. Under the terms of the registration rights agreement, we agreed to use our reasonable best efforts to:

•

file such shelf registration statement with the SEC within 45 days after the earliest date of original issuance of any of the Notes;

•

cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as is practicable, but in no event later than 180 days after the earliest date of original issuance of any of the Notes; and

•

keep the registration statement effective for a period (the “registration period”) from the date such registration statement is declared effective by the SEC until such date that is the earlier of (1) the date as of which all the Notes or the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes have been sold either under Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any similar provision then in force) or pursuant to the shelf registration statement; (2) the date on which there are no outstanding registrable securities; and (3) the date that is two (2) years from such date.

We also agree to notify each registered holder when the shelf registration statement has become effective and take certain other actions as are required to permit unrestricted resales of the Notes and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes. If a shelf registration statement covering the Notes and common stock is not effective, they may not be sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws or in a transaction not subject to those laws.

Registration Default:

If,

•

on the 45th day following the earliest date of original issuance of any of the Notes, the shelf registration statement had not been filed with the SEC; or

•

on the 180th day following the earliest date of original issuance of any of the Notes, the shelf registration statement was not declared effective;

Liquidated damages will accrue on the Notes, from and including the day following the registration default to but excluding the earlier of (i) the day after the end of the registration period and (ii) the day on which the registration default has been cured. Liquidated damages will be paid semi-annually in arrears, with the first semi-annual payment due on the first interest payment date, as applicable, following the date on which such liquidated damages begin to accrue, and will accrue at a rate equal to:

•

1.00% per annum of the accreted principal amount for the first 90 days following such registration default; and

•

1.50% per annum of the accreted principal amount after the first 90 days following such registration default;

In no event will liquidated damages relating to the resale registration statement accrue at a rate per annum exceeding 1.50%. Liquidated damages will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months. If a holder has converted some or all of its Notes into common stock, the holder will be entitled to receive equivalent amounts based on the accreted principal amount of the Notes converted. A holder’s right to liquidated damages shall be its sole remedy in the event of a registration default.

[Holder’s] (the “Selling Securityholder”) agreement to these terms does not constitute permission to identify the Selling Securityholder as an underwriter in the Shelf Registration Statement or any amendment thereto. We only consent to the inclusion of the following language in the Shelf Registration Statement: “Any selling securityholder that is a broker-dealer may be deemed to be an underwriter with respect to the securities it sells pursuant to the prospectus.”
