BIZ IT - Leading Mobile Service Provider in Asia Pacific Region Chooses Intervoice - March, 2008

To Differentiate from the Competition Subscribers and Provider Both to Benefit from Migration to SIP-supported Media Exchange and Expanded SMS Capacity

DALLAS, Texas USA -- (BUSINESS WIRE) - Monday March 10, 2008

Intervoice, Inc. announced that in a strategic move to differentiate itself from the competition, a mobile service provider that serves Australasia is migrating its network to Media Exchange, expanding its Short Message Service (SMS) capacity and adding new payment features to its platform. The value of this order is currently estimated to be worth $4.1 million.

Intervoice is a world leader in delivering natural, intuitive ways for people to interact, transact and communicate. Intervoice software and professional services enable innovative voice portal, IP contact center, hosted and mobile messaging and self-service applications. More than 5,000 customers in 80 countries have relied on Intervoice, including many of the world’s leading financial and healthcare institutions, telecommunications companies, utilities, and governments.

Citing competitive issues, the client requested anonymity in this announcement. This migration and expansion will benefit both the service provider and its subscribers. Migrating to Media Exchange will enable the provider to establish a standards-based, SIP-supported foundation for its network that will ease the integration of future applications and simplify the transition from TDM to an IP or IMS network. The SMS expansion will allow this provider to take advantage of more revenue opportunities such as utilizing SMS to offer new diverse marketing campaigns to subscribers.

While in turn, this migration and expansion will benefit subscribers by giving them a single access point for all self-service applications and additional payment features, including IP billing. These new payment features will provide powerful differentiation for the provider in their marketplace.

“This service provider continues to benefit from Intervoice’s consistent focus on offering flexible solutions for more customer-driven operations that improve the overall customer experience. As Intervoice continues to develop its standards-based applications and platform, both enterprises and service providers alike can benefit,” said Frank Sherlock, SVP and Managing Director, Intervoice Ltd. “The lines are blurring, creating an easier environment for open standards and software-based applications to evolve and transcend environments. We applaud our customers’ decisions to select future-proven technology to stay ahead of their competition.”

Intervoice said it is not unusual for the Company to receive large contracts. This contract or any large contract is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s revenues or earnings for any fiscal quarter. Intervoice currently anticipates recognizing revenue on this contract commencing with its fiscal quarter ending May 2008 and continuing through its fiscal quarter ending November 2008.
