Other Events


Item 8.01. Other Events.
On January 4, 2013, Verint Systems Inc. ("Verint") and Comverse Technology, Inc. ("CTI") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a final joint proxy statement/prospectus to serve as (1) a joint proxy statement of Verint and CTI to be used by the Verint board of directors to solicit proxies from Verint stockholders and by the CTI board of directors to solicit proxies from CTI shareholders and (2) a prospectus of Verint to be delivered to CTI shareholders in connection with the issuance of shares of Verint common stock to be received by them at the completion of the previously announced merger (the "Merger") of CTI with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of Verint ("Merger Sub") pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 12, 2012 (the "Merger Agreement"), among Verint, CTI, and Merger Sub. The joint proxy statement/prospectus forms a part of Verint's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-184628), which was filed with the SEC on October 29, 2012 and declared effective by the SEC on January 4, 2013.
On January 17, 2013, CTI filed with the SEC definitive additional soliciting materials relating to its special meeting of shareholders to be held on February 4, 2013, at which CTI shareholders will vote on a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement and to approve the transactions contemplated by that agreement, including the Merger, to correct the amounts of unvested CTI securities owned by each of CTI's executive officers as disclosed on pages 125 and 126 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus in the section entitled "The Merger-Interests of Certain Persons in the Merger-Employment Agreements of Executive Officers." Specifically, CTI corrected the previously disclosed amounts of unvested CTI restricted stock units and unvested CTI deferred stock units held by its executive officers to account for adjustments resulting from the pro rata distribution to CTI shareholders of 100% of the outstanding shares of Comverse, Inc. common stock made in the form of a special dividend paid on October 31, 2012. The following table sets forth both the previously disclosed and corrected amounts of unvested securities owned by each of CTI's executive officers for purposes of the disclosure on pages 125 and 126 of the joint proxy statement/prospectus in the section entitled "The Merger-Interests of Certain Persons in the Merger-Employment Agreements of Executive Officers," and as a result such amounts shall be deemed to be revised accordingly.

Cautions about Forward-Looking Statements This document contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding expectations, predictions, views, opportunities, plans, strategies, beliefs, and statements of similar effect relating to Verint. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees and they are based on management's expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause actual future results or events to differ materially from current expectations include: risks associated with Verint's and CTI's ability to satisfy the conditions and terms of the Merger, and to execute the Merger in the estimated timeframe, or at all, and the issuance of shares of Verint common stock in connection with the Merger; uncertainties regarding the expected benefits of the Merger; risks arising as a result of unknown or unexpected CTI obligations or liabilities assumed upon completion of the Merger, or as a result of parties obligated to provide us with indemnification being unwilling or unable to stand behind such obligations; risks associated with any litigation against us or our directors or officers that we may face, or any litigation against counterparties that we may inherit, in connection with the Merger; risks associated with CTI's ability to control Verint's board of directors and the outcome of matters submitted for stockholder action; and risks associated with being a consolidated subsidiary of CTI and formerly part of CTI's consolidated tax group. Verint assumes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement, except as otherwise required by law.
