Notice of EGM
Further to the announcement on 25 February 2003 of the placing of 300,000,000
shares on behalf of the Directors, together with certain of the employees and
former employees of the Company to institutional investors, a notice of an
Extraordinary General Meeting to be held on Friday 25 April 2003 ("EGM") has
been sent to shareholders. The EGM has been called for the purpose of proposing
a share consolidation ("Share Consolidation") of the Company's existing ordinary
shares of 0.5 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") into new ordinary shares of 50
pence each ("New Ordinary Shares"), the effect of which will be that
shareholders will own one New Ordinary Share for every 100 existing Ordinary
Shares currently owned.
Stephen Hargrave, chairman of Invox commented "at the time of the placing and
with the introduction of a number of new institutional shareholders, the Board
believed that the Company would benefit from a share consolidation which should
narrow the bid/offer spread of the Company's shares and make the Company's
shares more attractive to a larger group of potential investors, whilst
retaining the Company's attractiveness to the private investor."
