Item 1.01             Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On June 1, 2010, Arbinet Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a trade credit insurance policy with ACE American Insurance Company (the “Insurer”) covering the Company’s accounts receivables generated in rendering its telecommunications services. The policy supersedes and broadens the scope of the Company’s prior trade credit insurance policy with Euler Hermes ACI and underwriting services agreement with GMAC Commercial Finance LLC.

The Company manages the invoicing, credit risk and settlement of all traffic traded on its global electronic market for the trading, routing and settling of voice and data capacity (the “Exchange”) and is obligated to pay sellers on the Exchange regardless of whether it collects from buyers. The trade credit insurance policy is part of the Company’s integrated credit risk management program and is designed to help protect the Company from credit losses in the event of nonpayment of buyers on the Exchange. As long as the Company is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the policy, the benefits over the Company’s prior credit risk arrangements include non-cancellable credit limits for approved named buyers, a higher collateral base for current and future potential lenders and credit risk coverage for a larger number of customers and for a greater dollar amount.

The policy terminates on June 1, 2011 and is non-cancellable prior to the termination date, except (i) by the Insurer in the event the Company undergoes a change of control, (ii) by the Insurer in the event of non-payment of the premium by the Company, or (iii) automatically in the event of the Company’s insolvency.
