Verizon and Vodafone Planning $130 bn Wireless Deal

Verizon Communications agreed on Monday to pay $130 billion for the 45 per cent stake in Verizon Wireless owned by British cellphone carrier Vodafone.

Reuters reports: The deal in cash and stock will give Verizon full access to the profits from the United States' largest mobile operator, handing it fresh firepower to invest in its mobile network and fend off challengers in a tough market that is fast becoming even more competitive.

For the British group, the accord will allow it to return 71 per cent of the net proceeds - or $84 billion including all of the stock - to shareholders while also ramping up investment in its networks to set itself apart from rivals.

Under the terms, Vodafone will get $58.9 billion in cash, $60.2 billion in Verizon stock, and an additional $11 billion from smaller transactions in a deal that is due to close in the first quarter of next year.

The deal will become the third largest announced deal in the world after Vodafone's $203 billion takeover of Germany's Mannesmann in 1999 and AOL's $181 billion acquisition of Time Warner the following year. Verizon has also managed to raise one of the largest ever financing packages at $60 billion.

The deal, in which Verizon will buy Vodafone's 45 per cent stake in Verizon Wireless, is the defining event in the careers of Vittorio Colao and Lowell McAdam, the chief executives of Vodafone and Verizon, respectively. They had succeeded in rebuilding relations between the two sides, long strained by clashes about the Wireless dividend and who would eventually seize full ownership.

McAdam told Reuters in an interview that the two men had initially discussed the possibility of combining Verizon and Vodafone before deciding that the stake sale made more sense for both companies.

He said the companies realised they were close to a deal after they spent the morning together in a hotel in San Francisco, chatting while on the exercise bike in the gym and later over breakfast.

The code name assigned to the deal was Project River. "We were Hudson and they were the Thames," he said, referring to rivers in New York and London.

Technology : Apple Software's developers site hacked : Information suspected to be leaked

NEW YORK CITY: Computer and software giant Apple said that it took its software developers website offline after it was hacked, warning that personal information about them may have been stolen.

"Last Thursday, an intruder attempted to secure personal information of our registered developers from our developer website," Apple said in a statement.

Although sensitive information was encrypted, "we have not been able to rule out the possibility that some developers' names, mailing addresses, and/or email addresses may have been accessed."

The information technology giant said in a statement titled "We'll be back soon" that they made the hack attack known "in the spirit of transparency."

Company officials "took the site down immediately on Thursday and have been working around the clock since then.

"In order to prevent a security threat like this from happening again, we're completely overhauling our developer systems, updating our server software, and rebuilding our entire database," Apple said, apologizing and adding that they "expect to have the developer website up again soon."

Shahrukh detained 2 hours at NY - Again?

This event had made a stir in 2009 (at Newark) but it has unfortunately repeated itself in 2012 as the 'Khan' tag seems to be going uneasy with the airport officials. The Bollywood superstar, Shah Rukh Khan was detained at the New York airport this Thursday, where he was set to attend Yale University's Chubb Fellows, one of the Ivy League institution's highest honours, on April 12 for promoting human ideals through art. He was accompanied by Nita Ambani.

King Khan was cool at the moment and responded "I was detained at the airport as always happens,", unlike the 2009 incident which was extremely rash and humiliating for the actor. In 2009, when the questioning continued after the 2 hours session, the Indian mission intervened and secured his release. He had then responded "I was really hassled at the American Airport because of my name being Khan...It was absolutely was uncalled for...I felt angry and humiliated," said Shah Rukh, who was then heading towards Chicago to participate in an Independence Day celebration.

"It is a Muslim name and I think the name is common on their checklist," he had then said. 

At the moment, the star was cool about it and seems to have got a better treatment than what he experienced over 2009. This time the Yale University officials had intervened to get him cleared off the further questioning events. Shah Rukh Khan is considered one of the powerful media artists of the generation who, through his films and philanthropy has been promoting human ideals and aspirations, noted the Chubb Fellowship. Chubb Fellowship roster has included heads of states, Nobel Prize winners, and leaders from every area of human endeavour who have inspired Yale students to see service to the public good as the highest calling to which a global citizen can aspire.

Former Chubb Fellows include Presidents George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter; authors Octavio Paz, Carlos Fuentes and Toni Morrison; filmmaker Sofia Coppola; architect Frank Gehry; choreographer Mikhail Baryshnikov; and journalist Walter Cronkite.  

The world wide publicity and the heart grabbing performances of the actor has always made him special to his countrymen and foreign alike and it is this factor which did contribute in having SRK into the Chubb Fellow list.
