1 BT Seals Acquisition of EE
- BT agreed to definitive terms to acquire EE for £ billion; the transaction is still pending regulatory approval.

The deal will make BT the latest company in the home market to offer quad play and pave the way for it to become a converged telecom provider. Apart from improved product offerings and a boost in innovation capabilities, the deal will result in price wars in the U.K. market.
