Item 5. Other Events and Required FD Disclosure
Litigation with JANA Partners LLC and Related Press Release
A hearing was held on April 28, 2004 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia to consider an application by the registrant, InterCept, Inc., for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction against dissident shareholder JANA Partners LLC. In an order issued on April 29, 2004, the Court stated its view that only InterCept’s two Class III directors positions are up for election at InterCept’s 2004 annual meeting, while concluding that injunctive relief was not available in the circumstances. The Court also ruled that, if JANA submits shareholder proposals to be considered at the InterCept annual meeting no later than five days of the entry of the order, those proposals will be considered timely even though they are made after the deadline for shareholder proposals required by InterCept’s bylaws. A copy of the press release issued by InterCept on April 30, 2004 with respect to this litigation is attached asExhibit 99.1 hereto, and a copy of the Court’s Order is attached asExhibit 99.2 hereto.
The press release inadvertently included G. Lynn Boggs, InterCept’s President and Chief Operating Officer, in the table describing the share ownership of participants. Although Mr. Boggs may become a participant to the extent he solicits proxies, he is not a participant at present and is not a director.
