2008-07-16 05:53:00
Meeting to Be Recessed Due to Merger Agreement with Convergys
DALLAS–(EMWNews)–Intervoice, Inc. (NASDAQ: INTV) announced today that it intends to
convene and then immediately recess its 2008 annual meeting of
shareholders in light of the Company’s
entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Convergys Corporation
(NYSE: CVG). The Company’s Board of Directors
believes it is in the best interest of shareholders to recess the
meeting to permit the Company’s shareholders
to take into account the proposed Convergys transaction prior to voting
on the election of the Company’s directors. No
action regarding the transaction itself is expected at the reconvened
meeting, and only the election of directors and the ratification of the
Company’s independent registered public
accounting firm will be addressed.
The 2008 annual meeting is scheduled to take place at 10:00 a.m., local
time today, at the Renaissance Hotel, 900 East Lookout Drive,
Richardson, Texas 75082. The Company intends to entertain a motion to
recess the annual business meeting until July 28, 2008 at 10:00 a.m.,
local time, to be held at the offices of Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P.,
2200 Ross Avenue, Suite 2800, Dallas, Texas 75201. The May 30, 2008
record date for shareholders entitled to vote at the 2008 annual meeting
has not been changed.
