Item 8.01

Other Events.

On September 24, 2010, CSG Systems International, Inc. (CSG) issued an announcement pursuant to Rule 2.5 of the U.K. City Code on Takeovers and Mergers. This announcement disclosed our firm intention to make an offer to acquire all of the issued and to be issued shares of U.K.-based Intec Telecom Systems PLC (“Intec”) in an all-cash transaction of 72 pence per Intec share. The acquisition is being implemented by way of a court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement (the “Scheme”) under Part 26 of the U.K. Companies Act 2006.

On November 3, 2010, the board of Intec announced that, at the court meeting and general meeting of eligible Intec shareholders, Intec shareholders voted to approve, by the necessary majorities, the Scheme and other associated matters to implement the acquisition of Intec.

The implementation of the acquisition remains conditional on the satisfaction or waiver of the remaining conditions set out in the Scheme document posted to Intec shareholders on October 12, 2010, including the sanction of the Scheme and the confirmation of the capital reduction by the court. It is anticipated that the remaining necessary conditions will be finalized by the end of November with the Scheme becoming effective on or about November 30, 2010.
