NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2006
Note A Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. The consolidated
balance sheet at February 28, 2006 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that
date. We believe we have included all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
unaudited November 30, 2006 and 2005 consolidated financial statements. Such adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited
financial statements and related notes for the three years ended February 28, 2006 included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our Annual Report is available on our website at www.intervoice.com.
Our operating results for the three and nine month periods ended November 30, 2006 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for our fiscal year ending February 28,
2007, as our results may be affected by a number of factors including the timing and ultimate
receipt of orders from significant customers which continue to constitute a large portion of our
sales, the sales mix of products and services sold, and changes in general economic conditions, any
of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations.
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Intervoice, Inc. and our
subsidiaries, all of which are directly or indirectly 100% owned by Intervoice, Inc. All
significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries have been translated into U.S. dollars at current
and average exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are recorded in stockholders equity
as a part of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Any foreign currency transaction gains and
losses are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Our total
comprehensive income for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and 2006 was $0.4 million and $2.7
million, respectively. For the nine month periods ended November 30, 2006 and 2005, total
comprehensive income was $2.7 million and $9.9 million, respectively. Total comprehensive income
is comprised of net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Note B
Acquisition of Edify Corporation
As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2006, we
acquired Edify Corporation (Edify), a former competitor in the enterprise market, from S1
Corporation. Results of operations for Edify were consolidated with ours beginning December 31,
2005; therefore, our results of operations presented for the three and nine month periods ended
November 30, 2005 do not include those of Edify.
The following unaudited pro forma information represents our results of operations for the
three and nine month periods ended November 30, 2005 as if the Edify acquisition had occurred at
March 1, 2005. The pro forma information has been prepared by combining the results of operations
of Intervoice and Edify, adjusted for additional amortization expense of identified intangibles, a
reduction in interest income as a result of our use of cash to acquire Edify and pay transaction
costs, and the resulting impact on the provision for income taxes. The pro forma information has
not been adjusted to reflect any stock compensation expense as required by SFAS No. 123R which was
adopted by Intervoice effective March 1, 2006. The unaudited pro forma information does not
purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the Edify acquisition occurred as of the
date assumed or of results of operations which may occur in the future (in thousands, except per
share data):

At November 30, 2006 the balance in our computer equipment and software account included
approximately $14.9 million in capitalized costs associated with our SAP implementation. At
February 28, 2006, approximately $8.0 million of such costs were included in our computer equipment
and software account. Depreciation on approximately $2.6 million of the total began during the
third quarter of fiscal 2006 as certain elements of the SAP project were placed into service.
Depreciation on approximately $0.5 million additional of the total began during the second quarter
of fiscal 2007. Depreciation on the remaining balance began in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 as
the remainder of the system was placed in service, and is being amortized over 7 years.
Note E Stock-based Compensation
Our shareholders approved the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan in July 2005. This plan encompasses
all remaining shares available for grant under all prior plans. As of November 30, 2006, we had
reserved 9,331,741 shares of common stock for issuance under the plan, with 8,310,681 shares
reserved for stock options and restricted stock units outstanding at that date and 1,021,060 shares
reserved for future grants. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors controls the
granting of options and restricted stock units under the plan. Option prices are set at the fair
market value per share of stock on the date of grant. Substantially all of the options have a
7-year or 10-year term. Except for options granted in July 2004 and July 2005, options generally
vest ratably over a 3 or 4 year period. Fifty percent of the options granted in July 2004 vested
on February 28, 2005, and the remaining fifty percent will vest in July 2007. Fifty percent of the
options granted in July 2005 vested on February 28, 2006, and the remaining fifty percent will vest
in February 2009. We recognize compensation expense of share-based awards which vest ratably on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award.
Effective March 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R,
Share-Based Payments, using the modified prospective application method. SFAS 123R requires
companies to include a compensation expense in their statements of operations relating to the
issuance of employee stock options and other equity awards based on the grant date fair value of
the equity instrument. We applied the requirements of the statement to new awards and to awards
modified, repurchased or cancelled after March 1, 2006. In addition, we recognized compensation
cost over the remaining service periods for the portion of awards outstanding as of March 1, 2006,
which was based on the grant date fair value of these options as determined in accordance with the
provisions of SFAS 123.

The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that we have never paid cash dividends and
have no present intention to pay cash dividends. We use a weighted average of the implied
volatility, the most recent one-year volatility and the median volatility for the period of the
expected life of the option to determine the expected volatility to be used in our fair value
calculation. The historical volatility factor carries the largest weighting of the three factors
considered. We believe that this is the best available estimate of expected volatility. The
expected lives of options are determined based on our historical stock option exercise experience.
We believe the historical experience method is the best estimate of future exercise patterns
currently available.
Based on the above assumptions, the weighted average fair values of the options granted under
the plan for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2006 were $3.29 and $3.30, respectively.
Estimated forfeiture rates are derived from historical forfeiture patterns. We believe the
historical experience method is the best estimate of forfeitures currently available. We will
record additional expense if the actual forfeitures are lower than estimated and we will record a
recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeitures are higher than estimated.
Under the modified prospective application method, results for periods prior to March 1, 2006
have not been restated to reflect the effects of implementing SFAS No. 123R. The following pro
forma information, as required by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition
and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, is presented for comparative purposes and
illustrates the pro forma effect on income from continuing operations and related earnings per
common share for the three and nine month periods ended November 30, 2005, as if we had applied the
fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based compensation for those periods (in
thousands, except per share amounts):

During the three and nine month periods ended November 30, 2006, the total intrinsic value of stock
options exercised was $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively. The unamortized fair value of stock
options as of November 30, 2006 was $8.6 million with a weighted average remaining recognition
period of 2.5 years.
Restricted Stock Units
We also granted restricted stock units under our 2005 Stock Incentive Plan. These units will
vest upon the completion of the service period of two to four years from the date of grant. Each
restricted stock unit granted reduces the number of shares available for future grant under the
plan by two shares.

Note G
Income Taxes
For the quarter and nine months ended November 30, 2006, our effective tax rate of 41% and
30%, respectively, differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of an
increase in valuation allowance associated with certain foreign deferred tax assets due to our
uncertainty related to the utilization of those tax assets, a reduction in tax expense resulting
from the completion and filing of our fiscal 2006 federal income tax return, and the effect of
non-U.S. taxes.
Given our three year history of profitability and the belief that we will continue to generate
sufficient taxable income in the future to realize the benefits of certain of our remaining U.S.
federal deferred tax assets, in February 2006 we reversed the valuation allowance associated with
our U.S. federal deferred tax assets. However, due to uncertainties regarding our ability to
generate sufficient future taxable income in certain foreign jurisdictions to realize the benefit
of deferred tax assets in such foreign jurisdictions, we continue to maintain a valuation allowance
against those deferred tax assets.
For the quarter and nine months ended November 30, 2005, our effective tax rate of 3% and 13%,
respectively, differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the favorable
settlement of certain foreign tax liabilities and other foreign tax contingencies, a reduction in
tax expense resulting from the completion and filing of fiscal 2005 federal and state income tax
returns, the expected tax benefits associated with the utilization of previously reserved net
operating losses, and the effect of non-U.S. taxes.
On June 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation Number
48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties, which will be effective as of the beginning
of our fiscal year ending February 29, 2008. FIN 48 defines the threshold for recognizing the
financial statement benefit of tax return positions as more-likely-than-not to be sustained by
the taxing authority. The more-likely-than-not threshold represents a positive assertion by
management that a company is entitled to the economic benefits of a tax position. If a tax
position is not considered more-likely-than-not to be sustained based solely on its merits, no tax
benefit can be recognized from the position.
We have begun our evaluation of the effect of FIN 48 on our reported income tax liabilities.
We may be required to adjust our income tax liabilities as a result of our
adoption of FIN 48 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. We have not yet completed our assessment of applying the provisions of FIN 48.

Options to purchase 7,018,018 and 4,718,494 shares of common stock at average exercise
prices of $8.82 and $10.51 per share were outstanding during the three month periods ended November
30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per
share because of our loss for the third quarter in fiscal 2007 and because the options exercise
prices were greater than the average market price of our common shares during the applicable period
in fiscal 2006 and, therefore, the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Options to purchase
6,843,518 and 1,479,644 shares at average exercise prices of $8.88 and $13.09 were outstanding
during the nine month periods ended November 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, but were not included
in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options exercise prices were greater
than the average prices of our shares for the nine month periods.

Note J
Contingencies
Intellectual Property Matters
We provide our customers a qualified indemnity against the infringement of third party
intellectual property rights. From time to time, various owners of patents and copyrighted works
send us or our customers letters alleging that our products do or might infringe upon the owners
intellectual property rights, and/or suggesting that we or our customers should negotiate a license
or cross-license agreement with the owner. Our policy is to never knowingly infringe upon any third
partys intellectual property rights. Accordingly, we forward any such allegation or licensing
request to our outside legal counsel for their review and opinion. We generally attempt to resolve
any such matter by informing the owner of our position concerning non-infringement or invalidity,
and/or, if appropriate, negotiating a license or cross-license agreement. Even though we attempt to
resolve these matters without litigation, it is always possible that the owner of a patent or
copyrighted work will sue us. Although no such litigation is currently pending against us, owners
of patents and/or copyrighted works have previously sued us alleging infringement of their
intellectual property rights. We currently have a portfolio of 85 patents, and we have applied for
and will continue to apply for and receive a number of additional patents to protect our
technological innovations. We believe our patent portfolio could allow us to assert counterclaims
for infringement against certain owners of intellectual property rights if those owners were to sue
us for infringement.
From time to time Ronald A. Katz Technology Licensing L.P. (RAKTL) has sent letters to
certain of our customers suggesting that the customer should negotiate a license agreement to cover
the practice of certain patents owned by RAKTL. In the letters, RAKTL has alleged that certain of
its patents pertain to certain enhanced services offered by network providers, including prepaid
card and wireless services and postpaid card services. RAKTL has further alleged that certain of
its patents pertain to certain call processing applications, including applications for call
centers that route calls using a called partys DNIS identification number. As a result of the
correspondence, many of Intervoices customers have had discussions, or are in discussions, with
RAKTL.
We offer certain products that can be programmed and configured to provide enhanced services
to network providers and call processing applications for call centers. Our contracts with
customers usually include a qualified obligation to indemnify and defend customers against claims
that products as delivered by Intervoice infringe a third partys patent. None of our customers
has notified us that RAKTL has claimed that any specific product provided by us infringes any
claims of any RAKTL patent. Accordingly, we have not been required to defend any customers against
a claim of infringement under a RAKTL patent. We have, however, received letters from customers
notifying us of the efforts by RAKTL to license its patent portfolio and reminding us of our
potential obligations under the indemnification provisions of our agreements in the event that a
claim is asserted.
Some of our customers have licensed certain rights under the RAKTL patent portfolio. Two such
customers who had previously attempted to tender the defense of their products to us informed us
that they had entered into agreements to license certain rights under the RAKTL patents and
demanded we indemnify them for unspecified amounts, including attorneys fees, paid in connection
with the license agreements. We notified these customers that we believe we do not
12
have any indemnity obligation in connection with the license agreements. We have received no
further response from either customer.
A number of companies, including customers of ours and Edifys have been sued as defendants in
several lawsuits recently brought by RAKTL in the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Texas and the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. Several of
these defendants who are also customers have notified us or Edify of the lawsuits pursuant to the
indemnity paragraphs of their respective sales agreements and have indicated to us that the
lawsuits could potentially impact the defense and indemnity paragraphs of their respective sales
agreements. Neither we nor Edify believe that we have a current obligation to defend or indemnify
these customers in connection with the current allegations made in the RAKTL lawsuits and when
contacted we have requested that the customers provide additional information concerning the
assertions made by RAKTL.
In response to the correspondence from, and litigation initiated by, RAKTL a few of our
customers and customers of Edify have attempted to tender to us the defense of our products under
contractual indemnity provisions. We have informed these customers that, while we fully intend to
honor any contractual indemnity provisions, we do not believe we currently have any obligation to
provide such a defense because RAKTL does not appear to have made a claim, either in the
correspondence or litigation, that any Intervoice product infringes a RAKTL patent. Some of these
customers have disagreed with us and stated that they believe that the statements and allegations
contained within correspondence and/or litigation pleadings filed by RAKTL can be construed as a
claim against Intervoice products.
Even though no claims or allegations have been made by RAKTL that a specific product offered
by Intervoice infringes any claim under the RAKTL patent portfolio, we have received opinions from
our outside patent counsel that certain products and applications we offer do not infringe certain
claims of the RAKTL patents. We have also received opinions from our outside counsel that certain
claims under the RAKTL patent portfolio are invalid or unenforceable. Furthermore, based on the
reviews by outside counsel, we are not aware of any valid and enforceable claims under the RAKTL
portfolio that are infringed by our products. If we do become involved in litigation in connection
with the RAKTL patent portfolio, under a contractual indemnity or any other legal theory, we intend
to vigorously contest the claims and to assert all appropriate defenses.
We have received letters from Webley Systems (Webley), a division of Parus Holdings, Inc.
(Parus), and its counsel alleging that certain Webley patents cover one or more of our products
and services. In the letters, Parus offers a license to the Webley patents. As a result of the
correspondence, we conducted discussions with Parus. Based on reviews by our outside counsel, we
are not aware of any valid and enforceable claims under the Webley patents that are infringed by
our products or services.
Pending Litigation
David Barrie, et al., on Behalf of Themselves and All Others Similarly Situated v.
InterVoice-Brite, Inc., et al.; No. 3-01CV1071-D, pending in the United States District Court,
Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division:
Several related class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the
Northern District of Texas on behalf of purchasers of common stock of Intervoice during the period
from October 12, 1999 through June 6, 2000 (the Class Period). Plaintiffs have filed claims,
which were consolidated into one proceeding, under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-5 against us as well as
certain named current and former officers and directors of Intervoice on behalf of the alleged
class members. In the complaint, Plaintiffs claim that we and the named current and former
officers and directors issued false and misleading statements during the Class Period concerning
the financial condition of Intervoice, the results of the merger with Brite Voice Systems, Inc. and
the alleged future business projections of Intervoice. Plaintiffs have asserted that these alleged
statements resulted in artificially inflated stock prices.
The District Court dismissed the Plaintiffs complaint because it lacked the degree of
specificity and factual support to meet the pleading standards applicable to federal securities
litigation. The Plaintiffs appealed the dismissal to the United States Court of Appeals for the
Fifth Circuit, which affirmed the dismissal in part and reversed in part. The Fifth Circuit
remanded a limited number of issues for further proceedings in the District Court.
On September 26, 2006, the District Court granted the Plaintiffs motion to certify a class of
people who purchased Intervoice stock during the Class Period between October 12, 1999 and June 6,
2000. On November 14, 2006, the Fifth Circuit granted our petition to appeal the District
Courts decision to grant Plaintiffs motion to certify a class. Based on the Fifth Circuits
decision to accept our appeal, we filed a motion to stay further discovery pending the Fifth
Circuits decision on the merits of our appeal. Plaintiffs filed
a brief opposing our motion
to stay further discovery, and we filed a reply brief in support of
our motion. We are in the process of continuing to produce documents in response to
the Plaintiffs request for production while we await the District Courts decision on our motion
for a stay. We believe
13
that we and our officers and directors complied with the applicable securities laws and will
continue to vigorously defend the case.
A customer of Edify, Sony Electronics, Inc., was sued on December 13, 2006 in the case of
Phoenix Solutions, Inc. v. Sony Electronics, Inc.; No. CV-06-7916-PA, pending in the United States
District Court for the Central District of California. In the suit, Phoenix Solutions alleges that
Sony Electronics infringes certain of its patents. Edify has a qualified contractual obligation to
indemnify Sony Electronics against certain claims that products it provides infringe patents. Sony
Electronics notified us that they believe we have an obligation to
defend and indemnify them in the lawsuit.
We are currently reviewing the claims in the lawsuit against our contractual obligations to
determine our response. We have asked Sony Electronics to provide us certain additional
information so we can complete our review.
Audit Committee Investigation
During fiscal 2005, our Audit Committee conducted an investigation of certain transactions
that occurred during our fiscal years 2000 through 2002. The Audit Committee was assisted in its
investigation by separate independent legal counsel and a national accounting firm. The Audit
Committee reported the results of its investigation to the SEC, and
we are cooperating with the SEC in
its own investigation regarding the transactions. We are currently providing documents to
the SEC in response to a subpoena and informal requests for information about the transactions, and
several of our current and former officers and non-officer employees have provided testimony to the
SEC. Our Audit Committee and its counsel are continuing to monitor our response to the SEC, and
they also have conducted a review of certain documents provided to the SEC which we located after
the Committees original investigation. Intervoice is also honoring our obligation to indemnify
certain current and former officers and other employees of Intervoice, including our Chief
Executive Officer, who received subpoenas to produce documents and provide testimony to the SEC in
connection with the investigation. Furthermore, we are honoring our obligation to reimburse legal
fees incurred by certain recipients of the subpoenas.
The Audit Committee investigation found that we accounted for certain transactions incorrectly
during our fiscal years 2000 through 2002. The Audit Committee investigation concluded that a $0.9
million payment made by Intervoice to a publicly held supplier purportedly for certain prepaid
licenses was linked to an agreement to amend a 1997 warrant issued to us by the supplier to permit
our cashless exercise of the warrant. As a result, we believe the $0.9 million payment should have
been recorded as a reduction in the $21.4 million gain we recognized on the sale of the shares
underlying the warrant during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001 and should not have been recorded
as prepaid license inventory. Our payment to the supplier may have rendered unavailable a
nonexclusive registration exemption for the sale of the shares underlying the warrant. The Audit
Committee investigation also found that we intentionally provided the same supplier false or
misleading documents for such supplier to use to support such suppliers improper recognition of
revenue in calendar 2001.
The Audit Committee investigation and review further found that six of the seven customer
sales transactions the Committee investigated were accounted for incorrectly and that there was
intentional misconduct in at least one of those sales transactions. These six transactions
occurred at the end of quarters in which we just met analysts expectations with respect to
earnings per share. The Audit Committee found that we improperly recognized revenue in a
quarter-end barter transaction involving approximately 0.4% of annual revenues for fiscal 2000, and
that we improperly accelerated the recognition of revenue in five quarter-end transactions totaling
approximately 0.4% and 0.3% of annual revenues in fiscal 2000 and fiscal 2002, respectively. We,
and certain of our current and former officers and the SEC have agreed that Intervoice and the
officers will not assert any defenses based on a statute of limitations with respect to any action
or proceeding against Intervoice or such officers brought by or on behalf of the SEC arising out of
the SEC investigation for the time periods set forth in the agreements. As a result of work
performed in responding to the SEC subpoena, the Committee has concluded that Intervoice also
improperly recognized approximately $5.4 million of revenue in two sales transactions during the
second and third quarters of fiscal 2002 because the transactions were subject to oral side
agreements that gave our customer expanded rights of return. We subsequently reversed the $5.4
million of revenue during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 in connection with a return of the
related systems. We are providing documents to the SEC concerning these two additional sales
transactions pursuant to a separate subpoena. Separately, the Audit Committee determined that in
September 2001 one of our current executive officers improperly communicated Intervoice information
to a shareholder.
Intervoices management has concluded, with the concurrence of the Audit Committee and our
external auditors, that restatement of our prior period financial statements to adjust for the
findings of the Audit Committee investigation and review is not necessary. In reaching this
conclusion, we considered the impact of the incorrect
14
accounting on each of the periods affected, the ages of the affected financial statements and
the lack of any material changes in prior period trends as a result of the incorrect accounting.
In addition, we noted that since the date of the most recent transaction reviewed in the
investigation, we have restructured our business, made significant management changes, consolidated
our physical operations, significantly reduced our fixed operating costs and refinanced and repaid
all of our major debt obligations. We cannot predict whether we may have future losses relating to
the matters investigated by the Audit Committee as a result of future claims, if any, including any
claims by the government.
Other Matters
We are a defendant from time to time in lawsuits incidental to our business. Based on
currently available information, we believe that resolution of the lawsuits and other matters
described above is uncertain, and there can be no assurance that future costs related to such
matters would not be material to our financial position or results of operations.
We are a party to many routine contracts in which we provide general indemnities and
warranties in the normal course of business to third parties for various risks. These indemnities
and warranties are discussed in the following paragraphs. Except in specific circumstances where we
have determined that the likelihood of loss is probable and the amount of the loss quantifiable, we
have not recorded a liability for any of these indemnities or warranties. In general, we are not
able to estimate the potential amount of any liability relating to these indemnities and
warranties.
Many of our contracts, particularly for hosted solutions, foreign contracts and contracts with
telecommunication companies, include provisions for the assessment of damages for delayed project
completion and/or for our failure to achieve certain minimum service levels. We have had to pay
damages in the past and may have to pay additional damages in the future. Any such future damages
could be significant.
Our contracts with our customers generally contain qualified indemnifications against third
party claims relating to the infringement of intellectual property as described in Intellectual
Property Matters above.
Our contracts with our customers also generally contain warranties and, in some cases, general
indemnifications against other unspecified third party and general liability claims. We have
liability insurance protecting us against certain obligations, primarily certain claims related to
property damage, that result from these indemnities.
We are obligated under letters of credit totaling approximately $0.4 million issued by a bank
to guarantee our performance under a long-term international hosted solution contract and related
proposals. These letters of credit expire during fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2008.
We have employment agreements with four executive officers and three other officers. One
agreement with an executive officer requires us to make termination payments to the officer of one
and one-half times the officers annual base compensation in the event the officers services are
terminated without cause or payments of up to 2.99 times the officers annual compensation
including bonuses in connection with a termination of the officers services within a two year
period following a change in ownership of Intervoice, as defined in the agreement. If the officer
with whom we have such an agreement were terminated for one of the preceding reasons during fiscal
2007, we would incur costs ranging from $0.6 million to $1.2 million. The agreements with two
other executive officers require us to make termination payments of one and one-half times the
officers annual base compensation in the event the officers services are terminated without cause
or payments of up to two times the officers annual base compensation including bonuses in
connection with a termination of the officers services within an 18 month period following a
change in ownership of Intervoice, as defined in the agreements. If both of these officers were
terminated for one of the preceding reasons during fiscal 2007, we would incur costs ranging from
$0.9 million to $1.2 million. The agreement with the fourth executive officer, which was amended
and restated on October 9, 2006, requires us to make payment of the greater of the compensation for
the unexpired term of the contract which expires in December 2007 or one-half of the annual
compensation under the contract. If this officer were terminated during fiscal 2007, we would
incur costs ranging from $0.1 million to $0.2 million. The remaining agreements with officers
provide for their employment through December 2007 for one of the officers and through August 2008
with respect to the remaining two officers. If we terminated these officers prior to the
expiration of their contracts, we would owe them the greater of their compensation for the
unexpired terms of the contracts or one-half of their annual compensation under the contracts. If
these officers were terminated during fiscal 2007, we would incur costs ranging from $0.6 million
to $0.8 million.

Under the terms of our Articles of Incorporation, we indemnify our directors, officers,
employees or agents or any other person serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation in connection with a derivative suit if he or she (1) is successful on
the merits or otherwise or (2) acted in good faith, and in a manner he or she reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. We will not provide
indemnification, however, for any claim as to which the person was adjudged liable for negligence
or misconduct unless the court determines that under the circumstances the person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnification. We provide the same category of persons with
indemnification in a non-derivative suit only if such person (1) is successful on the merits or
otherwise or (2) acted in good faith, and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reason to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Under the terms of our
Bylaws, we also indemnify our current and former officers and directors to the fullest extent
permitted or required under Article 2.02-1 of the Texas Business Corporation Act.
In connection with certain lawsuits filed against us and certain of our present and former
officers and directors (see Pending Litigation above), we have agreed to pay in advance any
expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred by such present and former officers and directors in
defending such litigation, in accordance with Article 2.02-1 of the Texas Business Corporation Act
and the Companys Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. Each of these parties has provided us with
a written undertaking to repay us the expenses advanced if the person is ultimately not entitled to
indemnification.
We have a qualified obligation to defend and indemnify certain current and former officers and other
employees of Intervoice in connection with activities resulting from the Audit Committee
investigation and related SEC investigation described in Audit Committee Investigation above.
Texas corporations are authorized to obtain insurance to protect officers and directors from
certain liabilities, including liabilities against which the corporation cannot indemnify its
officers and directors. We have obtained liability insurance for our officers and directors as
permitted by Article 2.02-1 of the Texas Business Corporation Act. Our insurance policies provide
coverage for losses and expenses incurred by us and our current and former directors and officers
in connection with claims made under the federal securities laws. These policies, however, exclude
losses and expenses related to the Barrie class action lawsuit, or to other litigation
based on claims that are substantially the same as those in the Barrie class action, and
contain other customary provisions to limit or exclude coverage for certain losses and expenses.
