RNS Number: 8062Y

Notice of EGM

The Company announces that it has today posted a circular to shareholders setting out the details of a recommended proposed cancellation of the Company's share premium account.

The full text of the Chairman's letter contained within the circular is set out below. Definitions in the announcement shall bear the same meaning as those contained in the circular to Shareholders.

Dear Shareholder
Cancellation of share premium account

Introduction

I am writing to you today with details of your Board's proposal to seek Shareholder approval to a cancellation of the Company's share premium account (the "Cancellation") at an Extraordinary General Meeting. This will eliminate or substantially reduce the deficit on the Company's profit and loss account. Subject to the Court's requirements for the protection of the interests of the Company's creditors, any surplus arising on the proposed Cancellation will be credited to the Company's profit and loss account. The Cancellation will enable the Company to distribute profits generated after the proposed Cancellation takes effect (and any surplus reserve arising on the Cancellation which is not required by the Court to be non-distributable) by way of dividend should the Board consider it appropriate to do so in the future.

Background to the proposal

The Act prevents a company from purchasing its own shares or paying dividends where the company does not have sufficient distributable profits to do so.

The audited balance sheet of the Company reveals a retained loss of £6,134,827 as at 30 June 2006, arising from an inter company bad debt provision taken on the operating subsidiary losses incurred during the Group's 7 year life. However £5 million of these Group losses were incurred in periods prior to June 2002, when the company's principal activities related to the operation of an Internet based business directory. Your Board considers these losses to be permanent in nature and that the deficit does not reflect the reality of the Group's current trading position. The deficit has the potential to impact upon the ability of the Group to expand and strengthen its business going forward. As at 31 December 2006, the accumulated deficit had been reduced to £5,855,830. Whilst the Group continues to trade profitably, without the proposed Cancellation it is anticipated that it would take a considerable period of time before the Company was in a position to declare and pay dividends.

Share Premium Account

When a company issues shares at a value that represents a premium over their nominal value, it is required to transfer the premium to a share premium account. The amount standing to the credit of a share premium account may only be used for certain purposes.

In order to eliminate the deficit in the Company's profit and loss account the Board has decided to seek Shareholders' authority to cancel the whole of the Company's share premium account, which stood at £6,045,563 as at 30 June 2006. The reserve arising on the Cancellation can be utilised in reducing or eliminating (depending on the Company's trading) the accumulated deficit on the Company's profit and loss account as at the date the proposed Cancellation takes effect. Subject to protecting the interests of the Company's creditors, any surplus arising may be utilised in creating distributable reserves. The Board will recommend the payment of dividends in the future as and when they consider such dividends to be appropriate.

The most recent reported results show a significant improvement with the Group realising a net profit for the last eighteen months. However, whilst the balance on the Company's profit and loss account remains in deficit, the Company is prohibited by the Act from paying dividends. The proposed Cancellation will eliminate the entire deficit on the profit and loss account.

It is anticipated that the Court Order confirming the Cancellation (if approved by the Court) will be made on 18 July 2007.

The Cancellation will only take effect on the date that an office copy of the Court Order is duly registered by the Registrar of Companies (the "Effective Date"). It is expected that the Court Order will have been registered by 28 July 2007.

In order to obtain the Court's approval to the reduction, the Court will require protection for the creditors of the Company whose debts and claims remain outstanding at the Effective Date. The Company proposes to seek the consent of certain of its long term creditors to the Cancellation.

Appropriate arrangements will be made, with the approval of the Court, for the protection of any creditors of the Company who have not consented to the reduction. The terms of such protection are for the Court to determine and the Company will give to the Court such undertakings as it is advised are appropriate.

Procedure for Reduction

The Cancellation requires the sanction of a special resolution of the Shareholders and the approval of the High Court.

Following the passing of the special resolution by Shareholders at the EGM an application will be made to the High Court to confirm the Cancellation.

Effects of the cancellation of the Share Premium Account

The Cancellation will leave the Company's total capital, reserves and net assets unchanged and the underlying value of the Company and the net asset value of your shares will be unaffected. The respective positions of the capital of the Company as affected by the proposed cancellation of the Share Premium Account (excluding the effect of any liabilities or after tax profits after 30 June 2006) and subject to any creditor protection required, are illustrated below as at 30 June 2006:

  Before After
  £ £
Called up Share Capital 297,908 297,908
Share Premium Account 6,045,563 -
Profit and Loss Account (6,134,827) (89,264)
Total Capital and Reserves 208,644 208,644

Extraordinary General Meeting

Notice of an Extraordinary General Meeting to be held on 21 June 2007, at which a special resolution to approve the Cancellation will be proposed, is set out at the end of this document.

Action to be taken

You will find herewith a Form of Proxy for use at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Whether or not you intend to be present at the meeting, you are requested to complete the Form of Proxy and return it in accordance with the instructions printed thereon so that it is received as soon as possible and in any event not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the meeting. Completion and return of a Form of Proxy will not prevent you from attending the meeting and voting should you wish to do so.

Directors' recommendation and intentions

The Directors believe that the proposal described in this document is in the best interests of the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors unanimously recommend you to vote in favour of the resolution to be proposed at the Company's Extraordinary General Meeting, which will authorise the cancellation of the Company's share premium account, as they intend to do in respect of their aggregate beneficial holdings of 4,951,994 Shares representing 16.6 per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company.

Yours faithfully,
Philip Dayer
Chairman

Trading Statement

As previously reported, trading had been satisfactory and growing during the first half of the Group’s financial year, but a post Christmas lull in Ansaback sales in January continued into February when a major customer decided to take significant call volumes back in house. While the Board anticipated a recovery in sales from various order-line businesses and new multi-lingual contracts, this did not materialise. It is this type of call traffic that has been the principal customer base of the Romanian operation.

As a consequence of this, and due to the small size of the Group and its limited financial resources, it has been decided to close the office in Bucharest, whilst still retaining a contracted Romanian resource. The UK contact centre is unaffected.

The Group is expected to report Ansaback turnover substantially ahead of the year ended 30 June 2004, while CallScripter, with the benefit of the recently announced ININ OEM (original equipment manufacturer) deal, continues to perform satisfactorily. However the effects of the closure costs and the lower than anticipated call traffic in the third quarter will undoubtedly impact on the Group’s second half performance for the year ending 30 June 2005, which will be below market expectations with a loss being incurred during the second six months.

As previously the Group will announce its results for the year ending 30 June 2005 during August 2005. The board is committed to the strategy of building a profitable business and remains cautiously optimistic.

Re Agreement

CallScripter and Interactive Intelligence Sign OEM Deal

- First Interactive Intelligence OEM deal driven from outside the U.S.
- MediaLine becomes first customer.

London, March 16, 2005 - Contact centre agents can be offered additional support when handling calls and other customer contact thanks to an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) deal between Interactive Intelligence Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ) and CallScripter Ltd., a division of County Contact Centres Plc, the AIM listed business services group (AIM:CUY). Under the terms of the deal, Interactive Intelligence's award winning Customer Interaction Center(R) (CIC) contact centre software is now available with a connector to the CallScripter(R) software tool, which interactively scripts conversations for agents.

"This worldwide initiative is the company's first OEM deal driven from outside the U.S., reflecting our growing strength throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa," said Dr. Donald E. Brown, President and Chief Executive Officer for Interactive Intelligence. "The deal fits well with our ethos of ensuring customer choice. Rigorous testing and development of the connector mean that resellers can confidently offer faster implementation and integration with CallScripter, ensuring minimum disruption for the customer."

MediaLine is a teleservices operation based in Switzerland that supplies multi-lingual call centre services, both outbound and inbound. It has become the first customer to take advantage of the OEM deal. When it placed an order for a 25 seat installation of Interactive Intelligence's Customer Interaction Center (R) (CIC) software, to be deployed by the end of April 2005, CallScripter was included in the functions it selected. Scripts will be delivered to agents in four different European languages.

CIC's features include multimedia routing and queuing, interactive voice response, screen pop, call recording, Web chat and more. Whilst many companies running their own contact centres find it a powerful tool, this rich feature set combined with flexible, easily managed and changed call routing also make it appealing to teleservices operations such as MediaLine.

CallScripter is a workflow-based scripting tool that guides agents through the communications process with callers, ensuring that all relevant information is collected in a controlled sequence and saved in the correct format and place. Visual script designers enable non-technical staff to quickly and easily create full multimedia call flows for use by agents. The two elements of CallScripter to which the OEM deal applies are ScriptEditor, which helps build and maintain scripts, and Script Executer, which serves the pages to an agent.

"There are many points of synergy between CallScripter and CIC," said Geoff Forsyth, Technical Director, County Contact Centres. "With both, it is easy to make changes - simply drag 'n' drop - and both are based on open standards with an emphasis on flexibility and ease of use. In any call centre, the technology has to do the job it's meant to, allowing agents to do theirs. In teleservices situations, the contact centre becomes the core business, doubling this imperative to have efficient, reliable and flexible software." Interactive Intelligence is offering the pre-integrated version of CIC through its channel of more than 140 resellers worldwide. Pricing depends on many factors, but averages approximately USD $800 per seat for ScriptEditor, and USD $150 for Script Executer.

Results of AGM and trading update

The Company announces that at the annual general meeting held today, all of the resolutions were carried unanimously.

The Board reported to the shareholders that after several months of research, a division handling multi-lingual calls has been opened in the Romanian capital of Bucharest. This offers the ability for both existing and new clients to have calls answered in the main European languages, including French, German, Italian and Spanish, whilst still being managed from the UK.

Bucharest has a large and vibrant university infrastructure giving a rich seam of multi-lingual graduate agents and this along with the favourable overheads led the company to move ahead. The operation has been opened on a low initial cost base with ample scope for quick expansion at short notice. Calls have already been handled and further development is expected in the next few months.

Previously Ansaback has been asked for foreign language services but has been unable to assist and while certain call centres offer dedicated foreign desks, these are expensive. Ansaback is convinced that this new venture provides a niche opportunity, capitalising on its current software, technology and service, which, it believes, no other UK 24-hour bureau service currently offers.

William Catchpole, Managing Director, commented, "Low cost off-shoring has had some bad press with larger UK companies rushing to take advantage of opportunities in India and similar countries. We are definitely not in that market sector. However we are very impressed by Bucharest, as both the quality of staff and cost base are attractive. The agents are young and keen with a European outlook and skill base, which is a distinct advantage. We expect good returns from this new venture."
