  $2.5 Billion in Cost Cuts Seen
  "The companies said they expected to realize $2.5 billion in
   savings through cost-cutting. Of those savings, 39 percent are
   expected to come from network expense savings, approximately
   49 percent from operating expense savings, and approximately
   12 percent are from reductions in capital expenditures."

  "It wasn't immediately clear what this might mean for the data
   center footprints of the two companies. Level 3 operates 52 data
   centers around the world, according to Data Center Map, while
   Global Crossing has 17 data centers around the globe."
