Item 1.01  Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On April 11, 2011, Interactive Intelligence, Inc., an Indiana corporation (“Interactive Intelligence”), Interactive Intelligence Group, Inc., an Indiana corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Interactive Intelligence (“ININ Group”), and ININ Corp., an Indiana corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of ININ Group (“MergerCo”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Agreement”), that provides:
 
·  
Interactive Intelligence will merge with MergerCo (the “Merger”), with Interactive Intelligence surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of ININ Group.
 
·  
Each outstanding share of Interactive Intelligence common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Interactive Intelligence Common Stock”), will automatically convert into one share of common stock of ININ Group, par value $0.01 per share (“ININ Group Common Stock”), and the current shareholders of Interactive Intelligence will become shareholders of ININ Group on a one-for-one basis, holding the same number of shares and the same ownership percentage after the reorganization as they held prior to the reorganization.
 
·  
Each of the outstanding options to acquire shares of Interactive Intelligence Common Stock will become options to acquire an identical number of shares of ININ Group Common Stock with the same terms and conditions as before the reorganization.
 
·  
Each outstanding restricted stock unit for shares of Interactive Intelligence Common Stock will become a restricted stock unit for an identical number of shares of ININ Group Common Stock.
 
Upon completion of the reorganization, ININ Group would replace Interactive Intelligence as the publicly held corporation traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under “ININ”, the current Interactive Intelligence symbol.  The reorganization would generally be tax-free for Interactive Intelligence’s shareholders.
 
It is expected that the directors and executive officers of ININ Group immediately following the reorganization would be the same individuals who were directors and executive officers, respectively, of Interactive Intelligence prior to the reorganization.
 
The boards of directors of Interactive Intelligence, ININ Group and MergerCo have unanimously approved the Reorganization Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. The Reorganization Agreement is subject to specified conditions, including approval by Interactive Intelligence’s shareholders at Interactive Intelligence’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”).  The date, time and place of the Annual Meeting will be announced by Interactive Intelligence at a later time.
 
The Reorganization Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated thereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the effective time of the Merger by action of the board of directors of Interactive Intelligence if it determines that for any reason the completion of the transactions provided for in the Reorganization Agreement would be inadvisable or not in the best interests of Interactive Intelligence or its shareholders.
 
The foregoing description of the Reorganization Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Reorganization Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
 
On April 11, 2011, ININ Group filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus (subject to completion) as part of its preliminary Registration Statement on Form S-4 relating to the Reorganization Agreement. This filing is available at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. Among other things, the filing states that the information in the preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus “is not complete and may be changed.”
