On June 16, 2014, Level 3 Communications, Inc. (NYSE: LVLT) and tw telecom (NASDAQ: TWTC) announced that they have entered into an agreement whereby Level 3 Communications, Inc. will acquire tw telecom in a stock-and-cash transaction valued at $40.86 per share based on market close as of June 13, 2014. Under the terms and subject to the conditions of the agreement, tw telecom stockholders will receive $10 cash and 0.7 shares of Level 3 common stock for each share of tw telecom common stock that is owned at closing.
