Item 8.01 Other Events
On February 2, 2007, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the district court’s order granting Premiere Global Services, Inc.’s motion for summary judgment in a lawsuit alleging violations of securities laws filed in November 1998 against us and certain of our officers and directors. Plaintiffs had acquired our common stock in connection with our acquisition of Xpedite Systems, Inc. (n/k/a Xpedite Systems, LLC). Plaintiffs sought undisclosed damages together with pre-and post-judgment interest, punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. On February 23, 2007, plaintiffs filed a petition for rehearing en banc and for panel rehearing with the Eleventh Circuit. On May 30, 2007, the Eleventh Circuit denied both of plaintiffs’ petitions.
