PCCW
Limited (“PCCW”)
Intention
to file Form 25 and Form 15F
On
March
28, 2007, the Board of PCCW approved the delisting of its American depositary
shares (“ADSs”) from the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”) and the
deregistration of such ADSs and the underlying ordinary shares under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) due to a number of
considerations, including the limited trading volume of its ADSs relative
to its
worldwide trading volume, and the time and cost of maintaining a listing
in the
United States and meeting the regulatory compliance requirements. As such,
PCCW
will file a Form 25 on May 8, 2007 to de-list its ADSs from the NYSE effective
May 18, 2007. After May 18, 2007, PCCW will no longer list its ADSs evidenced
by
American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) on the NYSE. Instead, PCCW’s ADR program
will become a Level 1 - Over-The-Counter program. Citibank, N.A. will continue
to act as PCCW’s depositary bank pursuant to the existing Deposit Agreement.
Once
the
rule on Termination of a Foreign Private Issuer’s Registration of a Class of
Securities Under Section 12(g) and the Duty To File Reports Under Section
13(a)
or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 becomes effective, PCCW intends
to file a Form 15F to de-register its ADSs and ordinary shares under the
Exchange Act. It is anticipated that the rule will be effective on June 4,
2007.
Thereafter, all of PCCW’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act will be
suspended unless the Form 15F is subsequently withdrawn or denied. Once the
Form
15F is filed, PCCW will publish the information required under Rule 12g3-2(b)
of
the Exchange Act on its website, http://www.pccw.com.
