To Enventis Employees:

Progress is being made as we collaborate and work together on integration planning for the merger between Enventis and Consolidated Communications (CCI), still targeted for the fourth quarter. A few weeks ago, we announced  the Transition Officers and the Integration Management Office (IMO) are working closely on integration plans as we prepare for the close and merger.

We are on track to complete the conditions of closing, including regulatory approvals and consent of critical contracts.  Additionally, our special proxy has been released and shareholder voting has commenced. Both CCI and Enventis will hold special shareholder meetings for their respective shareholders on October 8. It is important that shareholders vote on the proposed merger.
 
The IMO, led by Barb TenEyck (CCI) and Greg Tholkes (Enventis), is currently identifying integration projects that will begin upon close of the merger. The integration planning of PeopleSoft, which required an earlier start, has already begun and has a January 1, 2015 completion goal. Leading the PeopleSoft integration planning are Kay Callison (CCI), Todd Hollands (Enventis) and Lynn Schultz (Enventis). The teams gathered for a project kickoff meeting in Mankato on Aug. 18 and cross-functional teams have been formed.

Leadership teams from CCI continue to work with teams at Enventis to learn more about Enventis’ structure and the functional responsibility of each department. We are working to map the combined organization and position employees where they are best aligned within the new organization in effort to leverage our combined strengths and to best support our customers. By late September we will share initial information starting at the top of the organization and then over time, will provide updates by functional areas as progress is made and integration plans continue.

Together, we are confident CCI and Enventis will be a stronger company as we combine our expertise, our product and service portfolios and join forces to deliver best-in-class communications solutions to our customers.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the IMO or transition in general, please continue to use the “Ask a Question” web portal, or contact one of us directly.  We may not have all the answer yet, but will share what we can until more decisions can be made and communicated.

Thank you.
