Brazil Seeks Telebras Liquidation Plan By
Aug. 1999

Dow Jones Newswires

NEW YORK -- Telecomunicacoes Brasileiras SA (TBR), known as
Telebras, said Friday that the Brazilian Ministry of Communications has
ordered its liquidation as a result of its recent breakup and privatization.

In a press release, Telebras said that the ministry ordered the company to
submit a detailed plan of liquidation for approval by the company's board
of directors no later than August 1999, and for subsequent submission to a
special meeting of Telebras shareholders.

Telebras was spun off into 12 new holding companies in May, and the
government's controlling stakes were sold July 29 for a combined $19
billion.

The press release reiterated that trading in the 12 new companies is
expected to begin both in Brazil and Sao Paulo during the month of
September, pending approvals by the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission and by the CVM, its Brazilian counterpart.
