Out of the folllowing two sentences which one is correct?

1)Professors X and Professor Y regretfully conveyed their inability to participate in the convocation ceremony.
2) Professors X and Professor Y regretfully conveyed that they are unable to participate in the convocation ceremony.
 
Convey to whom? I find both sentences unnatural.

These are my own sentences. The first sentence was constructed by my colleague on whatsapp. I was confused whether that sentence was right or wrong. The second one was constructed by me. I sensed that it was still wrong. That is why I posted it here to get the guidance.

That's contradictory. They're not both your sentences if one of them was written by your colleague!
