Tim S. Leonard, Houston, for appellees.

OPINION

MAURICE AMIDEI, Justice (Assigned).

This appeal raises the issue of whether a Delaware corporation's act of redeeming its preferred stock held by a Texas resident renders it subject to personal jurisdiction in Texas. The trial court answered in the negative, and entered an order sustaining the special appearance of appellee, Household International, Inc. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm the trial court's order.
