INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

 

This Amendment No. 3 (this “Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (File No. 005-53477) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 14, 2010 by Qwest Communications International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to Rule 13e-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 thereto (“Amendment No. 1”) filed by the Company with the SEC on October 19, 2010 and Amendment No. 2 thereto (“Amendment No. 2”) filed by the Company with the SEC on November 3, 2010 (as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, the “Original Schedule TO” and, as further amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 3, the “Schedule TO”), with respect to the right of each holder of the Company’s outstanding 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Securities”) to sell and the obligation of the Company to purchase the Securities pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of November 8, 2005, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 8, 2005, as described in the Company’s Put Right Purchase Offer to Holders of 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025, dated October 14, 2010 (as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, the “Put Right Purchase Offer”), which is attached as an exhibit to the Schedule TO.

 

This Amendment No. 3 is the final amendment to the Schedule TO.

 

Items 1 through 9.

 

The Original Schedule TO and the Put Right Purchase Offer are each hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following to the Put Right Purchase Offer :

 

“The right of each holder of Securities to sell their Securities to the Company as described in the Put Right Purchase Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Friday, November 12, 2010 (the “Expiration Date”).  Based on final information provided to the Company by U.S. Bank National Association, the trustee and paying agent, no Securities were validly surrendered for purchase pursuant to the Put Right Purchase Offer.  Accordingly, no Securities will be purchased by the Company pursuant to the Put Right Purchase Offer.  As of the Expiration Date, approximately $1.118 billion in aggregate principal amount of the Securities remains outstanding.

 

As previously announced, the Company has elected to redeem all of the then outstanding Securities on November 18, 2010 (the “Redemption Date”), at a redemption price equal to 100% of principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date, as further described in the redemption notice (the “Redemption Notice”) issued to holders of Securities by the Company and attached as an exhibit to the Company’s current report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on October 19, 2010.  As further described in the Redemption Notice, pursuant to the terms of and subject to the conditions set forth in the indenture governing the Securities, holders of Securities may surrender their Securities for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on November 17, 2010.”
