Hutchison Whampoa Limited and Singapore Technologies Telemedia Pte. Ltd. Plan to Invest $750 Million in Global Crossing
* Investment, combined with Chapter 11 filing, will restructure balance sheet
* Operations worldwide unaffected by filing
Hamilton, Bermuda - January 28, 2002 - Global Crossing (NYSE: GX) today announced that it has signed a letter of intent with Hutchison Whampoa Limited and Singapore Technologies Telemedia Pte. Ltd. for a $750 million cash investment for a joint majority stake in the company's equity in connection with a restructuring of the company's balance sheet. In order to begin the restructuring process, Global Crossing and certain of its affiliates commenced Chapter 11 cases in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and coordinated proceedings in the Supreme Court of Bermuda.

(NYSE:GX) provides telecommunications solutions over the world's first integrated global IP-based network, which reaches 27 countries and more than 200 major cities around the globe.

Under the terms of the proposed investment, which is conditional on, among other things, the confirmation of a plan of reorganization by the courts before the end of August 2002, creditors would share in a combination of cash, new debt, and new equity in the restructured company. Existing common equity and preferred shareholders would not participate in the new capital structure.
John Legere, Chief Executive Officer of Global Crossing stated, "We believe this new equity investment from parties as strong as Hutchison Whampoa and Singapore Technologies Telemedia validates our confidence in the strong future of our company. This investment, along with the financial and operational restructuring that we're implementing, will strengthen our balance sheet and enable Global Crossing to build a sustainable business upon its existing unmatched global network. With this restructuring, we believe we can become the global leader providing networking services among the world's top 200 cities to global enterprises and carriers."
Mr. Legere said that business would continue as usual during the restructuring process. Employees will continue to be paid their wages and other benefits without interruption. Worldwide operations will be unaffected by the filing and customers will not experience any changes in their service.
"Ours is a balance sheet issue, not an operational one," Mr. Legere said, "and today's actions are intended to directly address this issue. Even with the financial uncertainty we've recently experienced, customers have continued to choose our network over many others. With this restructuring, we'll put financial uncertainty behind us and the power of our network will once again become the primary factor in the minds of our customers. Hutchison Whampoa and Singapore Technologies Telemedia are perfect matches for Global Crossing. They bring considerable financial resources and business acumen, which we are confident will add significant value to Global Crossing's prospects."
"With a strengthened balance sheet and reduced debt, we are confident that Global Crossing will be in an excellent position to take advantage of its unique global network, growing customer base, and outstanding service capabilities to create substantial value in the coming years. We are committed to an expedited restructuring process," Mr. Legere added.
Mr. Canning Fok, Group Managing Director of Hutchison Whampoa, and Mr. Lee Theng Kiat, President and CEO of Singapore Technologies Telemedia, said, "We are excited about the prospect of working with Global Crossing's management team and the opportunity presented by this transaction to develop and strengthen Global Crossing's business."

Subject: McAuliffe's Orlando connection
"Dear Rush, Thank you for enlighting us on how Mr. Terry McAuliffe, chairman of the DNC., turned a investment in stock in Global Crossing into an 18 million dollar profit before it went bankrupt...ala Enron....
Have your crack research staff go thru the archives of the Orlando Sentinel during the time Mr. McAuliffe lived in Orlando .. They will find among Mr. McAuliffe's dubious financial dealings, articles on how he turned a small investment in a labor union fund into a million dollars ....ala Hillary Clinton...!!!!!!!!!!
Regards.......Al #####"
Maybe we ought to start bombarding the Orlando Sentinel requesting this information, also.
I wonder if Hannity knows about this? :D
Al gets his great "letters to the editor" printed in the Orlando Sentinel all the time, by the way.
DEMRONGATE! COMING TO A DEMONICRAT NEAR ALL OF US!
Next Wave
Guess who just bought them up......
UBS-WARBURG BUYS BANKRUPT NEXT WAVE TELECOM....
Marc Rich is cleaning up!
Global Crossing was an investor in Next Wave!
Our favorite demonicRat auditors, Arthur Andersen, made a huge $644 million dollar error in their audit of NASA: (Arthur Andersen has another ooops! A little $644 million error in NASA audit)
This gets better every minute and hour of the day.
So rancorous are the relations between NextWave and the FCC that some current and former government officials say they have been told that the company hired private investigators to delve into their lives, an accusation that Salmasi denies.
The best thing to look for is a relationship will be those firms who used Arthur Andersen as their auditors and consultants before they bellied up! Then did those firms buy their business during the X42's terms with big donations to the DemonicRat Party?
If a corporation was a high flyer during 1993-2000, and they were clients of Arthur Andersen and big contributors to the DemonicRats, there is a real possible connection.
I think that we will see a whole lot of these failures and coming failures with these two links: Arthur Andersen and big donations to the DemonicRats from 1992 to 2000!
Some of this stuff should not be leaving this country for National Security reasons...
When the 'wheels' come off.
For the record:
"In carrying out our public disclosure activities, we seek to achieve a proper balance between the need to safeguard appropriately information in GAO's possession and GAO's desire to comply with the spirit of FOIA."
GAO on their own understandable need for privacy. Not right, GAO.
No.
Contact Bush, Ashcroft and the GOP. Make them investigate and prosecute the crimes the DNC and Clinton administration committed the last decade.
NOTHING is going to change until that happens. NOTHING.
How about we start with the Riady non-refund or Filegate or the deaths of Vince Foster and Ron Brown?
