(Fiserv), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Fiserv and CheckFree, as amended (the merger agreement). The proposal to adopt the merger agreement received the affirmative vote of approximately 78.96% of the shares entitled to vote at the stockholder meeting.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
