SINGAPORE--Mandarin Oriental International Ltd. (M04.SG)
Thursday said the hotels operator planned to raise about US$316
million in a one-for-four rights issue of its shares.
Mandarin Oriental would sell up to 251 million new shares at
US$1.26 apiece, a discount of 28.4% to its closing price on March

The company said it would use the proceeds to retire debt and to
renovate a hotel property in London.

(J37.SG) has undertaken to subscribe to its portion of the rights
issue and also buy any shares other stakeholders decline to
take.
