RENO, Nev., Jan. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- International Game
Technology (NYSE: IGT) today began mailing its "Notice of Internet
Availability of Proxy Materials" for its 2008 annual meeting of
shareholders under the new Notice and Access rule of the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC). The rule allows companies to furnish proxy
materials to shareholders via the Internet as an alternative to the
traditional approach of delivering a printed set to each shareholder.
Shareholders who previously consented to delivery of proxy materials
electronically via email will not receive the separate Notice of Internet
Availability of Proxy Materials and will instead continue to receive a full
set of the company's proxy materials by email.
The proxy statement for the 2008 annual meeting and the 2007 Annual
Report to Shareholders are available on the Investor Relations page of the
company's website at http://www.IGT.com/InvestorRelations. IGT shareholders
also may obtain hard copies of the company's proxy materials for the 2008
annual meeting -- and may elect to receive hard copies for all future
meetings -- free of charge by following the instructions provided on the
company's website or in the "Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy
Materials" that was mailed to shareholders on or about January 14, 2008.
The 2008 annual meeting will be held on Wednesday, February 27, 2008,
at 11:00 a.m., PST, at the company's headquarters in Reno, Nevada at 9295
Prototype Drive.
