Cable & Wireless/PCCW/Bond Price -2: To Sell 14.7% Stake
Updated: Tuesday, April 3, 2001 04:21 AM ET

LONDON (Dow Jones)--Cable & Wireless PLC (CWP, news, msgs) Tuesday said it has set an exchange price of HK$3.60 for its issue of zero-coupon bonds which are exchangeable into shares of Pacific Century CyberWorks Ltd. (PCW, news, msgs).

A source close to the deal had told Dow Jones Newswires late Monday that the exchange price would be set at HK$3.60.

The price is at the bottom of the range of between HK$3.60 and HK$3.80 that was set Monday.

As reported, Cable & Wireless is selling its entire 14.7% stake - or 3.26 billion shares - in PCCW via a $1.5 billion issue of two-year zero-coupon exchangeable bonds.

C&W said if the bonds aren't exchanged before June 9, 2003, the bonds will be redeemable at par.
