On August 1, 2012, Comverse Technology, Inc. (“CTI”), the sole stockholder of Comverse, Inc. (the “Company”), certain other shareholders of Starhome B.V. (“Starhome”) and Starhome entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Starhome Share Purchase Agreement”) with Fortissimo Capital Fund II (Israel), L.P., Fortissimo Capital Fund III (Israel), L.P. and Fortissimo Capital Fund III (Cayman), L.P. (collectively, “Fortissimo”) pursuant to which Fortissimo agreed to purchase all of the outstanding share capital of Starhome (the “Starhome Disposition”). On September 19, 2012, CTI contributed to the Company, its interest in Starhome, including its rights and obligations under the Starhome Share Purchase Agreement discussed below. The Starhome Disposition was completed on October 19, 2012.

Under the terms of the Starhome Share Purchase Agreement, Starhome’s shareholders received aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $81.3 million, subject to adjustment for fees, transaction expenses and certain taxes. Of this amount, $10.5 million is held in escrow to cover potential post-closing indemnification claims, with $5.5 million being released after 18 months and the remainder released after 24 months, in each case, less any claims made on or prior to such dates. The Company received aggregate net cash consideration (including amounts deposited in escrow at closing) of approximately $37.2 million, after payments that CTI agreed to make to certain other Starhome shareholders of approximately $4.5 million.

Starhome is a provider of wireless service mobility solutions that enhance international roaming. Wireless operators use Starhome’s software–based solutions to generate additional revenue and to improve profitability by directing international roaming traffic to preferred networks and by providing a wide range of services to subscribers traveling outside their home network.

The Company presented Starhome as discontinued operations in the historical audited combined financial statements as of January 31, 2012 and 2011 and for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 and interim unaudited condensed combined financial statements as of July 31, 2012 and for the six months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, which are included in Amendment No. 5 to its Registration Statement on Form 10 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 10, 2012. Such financial statements are incorporated herein by reference and are intended to satisfy the requirements for presentation of pro forma information related to the completion of the Starhome Disposition.
