BT enters exclusive talks to buy EE for GBP 12.5 billion

2014-12-15 21:10:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) BT has entered into exclusive talks to acquire UK mobile operator EE from Deutsche Telekom and Orange for GBP 12.5 billion in cash and new shares. Under the non-binding terms agreed, Deutsche Telekom would hold 12 percent of BT and would be entitled to appoint a member to the BT board. Orange would own 4 percent of BT. The period of exclusivity will last several weeks to allow BT to complete due diligence and for negotiations on a definitive agreement to be reached. While continuing discussions, BT will progress its own plans for providing enhanced fixed-mobile converged services for businesses and consumers, in line with previous announcements, and remains confident of delivering on these plans should a transaction not take place. BT expects significant synergies mainly through network and IT rationalisation, back-office consolidation and savings on procurement, marketing and sales costs. In addition, BT expects to generate revenue synergies through selling fixed-line services to EE customers who do not currently take a service from BT, and by accelerating the sale of converged fixed-mobile services to BT's existing consumer and business customers.

Weak deal at Lima climate talks disappoints climate hawks

2014-12-15 07:54:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Grist: The U.N. climate summit kicked off two weeks ago with an unfamiliar sense of optimism, invigorated by the recent agreement between the United States and China. But it ended with an all-too-familiar sense of disappointment. On early Sunday morning, delegates delivered a vague, four-page document that does little more than set the terms for what the parties will be battling over at the next big summit in Paris a year from now. After two weeks huddled in sweaty, sweltering tents (yes, many a greenhouse...
