CENTURY TELEPHONE ENTERPRISES, INC.
Of the 1,950,000 shares of common stock and accompanying
preferred stock purchase rights of Century Telephone Enterprises,
Inc. ("Century") registered under this Registration Statement in
connection with the merger of Celutel, Inc. with a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Century (the "Merger"), Century expects that only
1,902,342 such shares and accompanying rights will actually be
issued in connection with the consummation of the Merger on
February 10, 1994 (although the exact number ultimately to be
issued cannot be calculated until all the former Celutel
stockholders transmit their certificates formerly representing
shares of stock of Celutel, Inc. and Century's exchange agent
determines how the cash settlement of fractional shares affects
such calculation). Accordingly, Century hereby removes from
registration hereunder all shares of Century common stock and
accompanying preferred stock purchase rights not issuable in
connection with the Merger (which number of shares is estimated
at 47,658).
