Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) today announced that Wyeth LLC, its wholly-owned subsidiary, has notified The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee under the applicable indenture, of its election to fully redeem all of its outstanding 5.500% Notes due March 15, 2013 (after giving effect to a December 4, 2003 upward interest rate adjustment of 0.25%) (CUSIP No. 983024AA8) (the “Notes”). The aggregate principal amount of Notes currently outstanding is $1.5 billion. The redemption date for the Notes will be December 26, 2012 (the “Redemption Date”).
