NYSE To Suspend, Delist Cuba Bonds Due 6/30/1977

DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

The New York Stock Exchange suspended trading in the 4 1/2% bonds of the Republic of Cuba due June 30, 1977, effective immediately.

The issue has been halted and unavailable for trading since July 6, 1995.

The suspension and the Exchange's planned delisting application is the result of the Republic's defaulted status of debt securities, the length of time that trading has been halted, and other reasons, the Exchange said.
