Today we announced an agreement to acquire Hypercom Corporation in a transaction currently valued at an enterprise value of approximately $485 million. We are very excited about this opportunity to accelerate the growth we are driving at VeriFone, particularly in Europe, which, as you know, has been a key area of focus for us. This acquisition will create even more opportunities for us to meet the needs of our global customers. For more information, the press release that we issued is attached.

The transaction is subject to shareholder approval and regulatory approvals, but we expect it to close in the second half of 2011.

In the meantime, please stay focused on doing what you do best and delivering for our customers. For them and us, it’s business as usual. If you should receive inquiries outside of VeriFone regarding this matter, please forward them to William Nettles at (408) 232-7842 or William_N3@VeriFone.com.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication – it is your continued commitment that makes VeriFone the great company we are today.

Regards,

Doug
