Item 8.01. Other Events.  

On September 16, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) ordered termination of a pending administrative proceeding against Comverse Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and entry of final judgment without the imposition of a remedy under such section.  With the entry of final judgment, the administrative proceeding under Section 12(j) of the Securities Exchange Act has been resolved.

As previously reported by the Company, on March 23, 2010, the SEC issued an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings and Notice of Hearing pursuant to Section 12(j) to revoke the registration of the Company’s common stock because of the Company’s previous failure to file certain periodic reports with the SEC.  The Company submitted an Offer of Settlement on July 26, 2011, which was accepted by the SEC on September 8, 2011.

Additional information regarding the Section 12(j) administrative proceeding is set forth in Item 3, “Legal Proceedings,” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011 filed with the SEC on May 31, 2011 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2011 filed with the SEC on September 8, 2011.
