                  INTERVOICE ACTS QUICKLY TO CLOSE BRITE MERGER

        Tender offer, impending merger to make InterVoice industry giant

DALLAS - MAY 3, 1999 -- Dallas-based InterVoice, Inc. today moved quickly to
form one of the largest corporations in the call automation industry. Today's
announcement of a cash tender offer by InterVoice to purchase nearly 75 percent
of the outstanding shares of Brite Voice Systems, Inc. illustrates InterVoice's
intent to rapidly merge the two companies.

The cash tender offer comes less than a week after the announcement of the
InterVoice-Brite merger, valued at approximately $164 million. The merger,
expected to be completed around the end of July, will double the size of
InterVoice. Combined, InterVoice and Brite had revenues of nearly $300 million
last year. The merger will make InterVoice-Brite one of Dallas' largest
publicly-held companies -- the combined revenues last year would have placed it
in the Top 100, according to figures recently published in The Dallas Morning
News.

InterVoice-Brite will have a workforce of approximately 1,400, and the merger is
expected to have minimal effect on employees. The combined company will maintain
Brite's offices in Orlando, Wichita, Kan. and Manchester, England.
InterVoice-Brite's headquarters and associated corporate functions will be in
Dallas.

"The impact of this merger on the Metroplex will be substantial in terms of
growth and new revenues," said Daniel D. Hammond, chairman and CEO of
InterVoice-Brite. "Both companies are already regarded as leaders in the call
automation industry, and the InterVoice-Brite combination substantially
strengthens that position."

Brite Voice Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:BVSI), is a world leader in providing enhanced
telecommunications systems and interactive information systems. Brite's products
include prepaid, messaging, voice mail, voice activated dialing, enhanced
calling cards, as well as interactive information and IVR-CTI applications. The
