Dear Mr. Burdick:

Reference is made to the letter agreement between you and Comverse Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) dated March 9, 2011 (the “Employment Letter”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Employment Letter.

“1. Annual Base Salary. Your annual base salary is $700,000; provided, however, that your annual base salary will be increased to $820,000 for the period of time your work location is in New York City (as applicable, your “Annual Base Salary”). Your Annual Base Salary is payable in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices for similarly situated employees.”

 

  2. Section 2 of the Employment Letter shall be amended by replacing the reference to “$700,000” with “$730,000” and adding the following sentence to the end of such section:
