Item 8.01 Other Events

On December 23, 2009, Verint Systems Inc. (the “Company” or “Verint”) received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The Wells Notice provides notification that the Commission staff intends to recommend that the Commission institute an administrative proceeding to determine whether, pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Commission should revoke the registration of each class of Verint’s securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act in the event that Verint fails to file a comprehensive Annual Report on Form 10-K covering the years ended January 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2009 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first three quarters of the year ending January 31, 2010 with the Commission by January 29, 2010.

Under the Commission’s Wells process, recipients of a Wells Notice have the opportunity to make a Wells Submission before the Commission staff makes a recommendation to the Commission regarding what action, if any, should be brought by the Commission. The Company intends to provide a written submission to the Commission in response to the Wells Notice before the Commission staff makes any recommendation to the Commission. The Company continues to cooperate with the Commission staff with respect to the alleged violations and a possible resolution of the matters in question, but there can be no assurance that the Commission will not bring a Section 12(j) enforcement action against the Company.
