Vodafone to buy Cable & Wireless' Japan
interests

LONDON—Cable & Wireless plc said it agreed to sell its mobile telephony
interests in Japan to Vodafone AirTouch plc for $411 million in cash.

Cable & Wireless sold its shareholdings in the Digital Phone Group on Sept.
22, and has completed a definitive agreement to sell its 2.5-percent holdings
in each of the six Digital Tu-Ka companies that cover the rest of Japan.
The company said the transaction will result in a profit on disposal of $389
million before taxes.

Stephen Pettit, Cable & Wireless' executive director of corporate
development, said the company's commitment to the Japanese market now
is fully focused within Cable & Wireless IDC, ‘‘in line with our strategy
centered on data and Internet Protocol services to business customers.''
