ITEM 2.01. Acquisition or Disposal of Assets

On December 19, 2007, Syniverse Holdings, Inc. (“Syniverse”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to report the December 19, 2007 completion of its acquisition of the wireless services business (“BSG Wireless”) of Billing Services Group Limited (“BSG”) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated April 1, 2007, by and among Syniverse Technologies, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, Highwoods Corporation and BSG (the “Purchase Agreement”). Under the Purchase Agreement, Syniverse acquired all of the outstanding share capital of Billing Services Group Luxembourg S.a r.l. and Billing Services Group Asia Limited from BSG for an aggregate purchase price of $290 million in cash (which includes debt repaid at closing). The acquisition was funded through the draw down of Syniverse’s amended and restated credit facility completed in August 2007.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 “Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement” in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed April 2, 2007 is incorporated in this Item 2.01 by reference.
