which he acquires during the Term of Employment, including, without limitation, records kept in the ordinary course of business, except (i) as such disclosure or use may be required or appropriate in connection with his work as an employee of
the Company, (ii) when required to do so by a court of law, governmental agency or administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction to order him to divulge, disclose or make

  

 - 10 - 

 
accessible such information or (iii) as to such confidential information that becomes generally known to the public or trade without his violation of this Section 13(a). Nothing herein
shall preclude Executive from discussing the Agreement and/or any plan or other agreement referred to herein and/or any aspect of his compensation and/or benefits with his family and/or his advisors. 

(b) Assignment of Rights. The Executive hereby sells, assigns and transfers to the Company all of his right, title and interest in
and to all inventions, discoveries, improvements and copyrightable subject matter (the “Rights”) that, during the Term of Employment, are made or conceived by him, alone or with others, and that relate to the Company’s present
business or arise out of any work he performs or information he receives regarding the business of the Company while employed by the Company. The Executive shall fully disclose to the Company as promptly as possible all information known or
possessed by him concerning the Rights, and upon request by the Company and without any further compensation in any form to him by the Company, but at the expense of the Company, execute all applications for patents and copyright registrations,
assignments thereof and other applicable instruments and do all things that the Company may reasonably deem necessary to vest and maintain in it the entire right, title and interest in and to all such Rights. 

(c) Noncompetition. For and in consideration of the compensation to be paid by the Company pursuant to the terms hereof, and in
recognition of the fact that the Executive will have access to confidential information and other valuable rights of the Company, the Executive covenants and agrees that he will not, at any time during his employment with the Company and for a
period of twelve (12) months thereafter, directly or indirectly, engage in Competitive Business. “Competitive Business” shall mean any business or any activity related to the development, sale, production, manufacturing, marketing or
distribution of products or services that are in competition with products or services that the Company or any of its subsidiaries produces, sells, manufactures, markets, distributes or has interest in, in any state or foreign country in which the
Company or any of its subsidiaries then conducts business or reasonably has plans to conduct business, provided that after the end of the Executive’s employment Competitive Business shall exclude product lines or services that account for less
than 5% of the Company’s aggregate revenue as projected in the Company’s then current business plan for the three-year period following termination of employment. It is not the intent of this covenant to bar the Executive from employment
in any company whose general business is the manufacture of communications equipment or delivery of communications services, only to limit specific and direct competition with the Company as aforesaid. In furtherance thereof, it is acknowledged that
it shall not be a breach of this Section 13(c) for the Executive to provide services to an entity or person that is not itself a Competitive Business, but has a division, business unit or segment that is a Competitive Business, so long as the
Executive demonstrates to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that the Executive does not and will not, directly or indirectly, provide services or advice to such division, business unit or segment that is the Competitive Business.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Executive from being an investor in securities of a competitor listed on a national securities exchange or actively traded over-the-counter so long as such
investments are in amounts not significant as compared to his total investments or to the aggregate of the outstanding securities of the issuer of the same class or issue of the specific securities involved are less than 2% of the respective

  

 - 11 - 

 
company’s outstanding equity securities and the Executive is solely a passive investor (or option holder) in each such company and if either company has a Competitive Business, the Executive
does not and will not, directly or indirectly, provide services or advice to such company. 
 (d) Nonsolicitation. For
and in consideration of the compensation to be paid by the Company pursuant to the terms hereof, and in recognition of the fact that the Executive will have access to confidential information and other valuable rights of the Company, the Executive
covenants and agrees that he will not, at any time during his employment with the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, directly or indirectly, induce, attempt to induce, or aid others in inducing, an employee of the
Company to accept employment or affiliation with another firm or corporation engaging in such business or activity of which the Executive is an employee, owner, partner or consultant. The Executive further agrees that he will not, whether on
Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other individual, partnership, firm, corporation or business organization, either directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, persuade, or entice, or endeavor to solicit, induce, persuade, or entice, any
person who is then a customer, supplier, or vendor of the Company or any of its affiliates to cease being a customer, supplier, or vendor of the Company or any of its affiliates or to divert all or any part of such person’s or entity’s
business from the Company or any of its affiliates. 
 (e) Duration and Scope. The Company and the Executive agree that
the duration and geographic scope of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 13 are reasonable. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction determines that the duration or the geographic scope, or both, are unreasonable
and that such provision is to that extent unenforceable, the Company and the Executive hereto agree that the provision shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest lesser time period and in the greatest lesser area that would not render it
unenforceable. The Company and the Executive intend that this provision shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each and every county of each and every state of the United States of America and each and every political
subdivision of each and every country outside the United States of America where this provision is intended to be effective. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company would not have an adequate remedy at law and would be irreparably
harmed in the event that any of the provisions of this Section 13 were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief,
including preliminary and permanent injunctions and specific performance, in the event Executive breaches or threatens to breach any of the provisions of such Sections, without the necessity of posting any bond or proving special damages or
irreparable injury. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for a breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 13 by Executive, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available to the Company at
law or equity. Executive acknowledges and agrees that no breach by the Company of this Agreement or failure to enforce or insist on its rights under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver or abandonment of any such rights or defense to enforcement
of such rights. If the provisions of this Section 13 are ever deemed by a court to exceed the limitations permitted by applicable law, the Executive and the Company agree that such provisions shall be and are, automatically reformed to the
maximum lesser limitations permitted by such law.

15. Assignability; Binding Nature. 

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, agents, heirs (in the case
of the Executive) and assigns. No rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Company; provided, however, that such rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred pursuant to a
sale of more than 50% of the outstanding equity securities of the Company, a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the continuing entity, or the sale or liquidation of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company;
provided further, however, that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company,
as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. 
 16. Representation. 

The Company represents and warrants that it is fully authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement will not violate any agreement between it and any other person, firm or organization. The Executive represents and warrants that no agreement exists between him and any other person, firm or organization that would
be violated by the performance of his obligations under this Agreement. 
 17. Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement (including the attached Exhibit A and any plan, other agreements or attachments referred to herein) contains the entire
understanding and agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions, negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, with respect thereto including, without
limitation, any offer letters or employment agreements and any nondisclosure, nonsolicitation, inventions and/or noncompetition agreements between the Parties. 

18. Amendment or Waiver. 

No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and an authorized
officer of the Company. No waiver by either Party of any breach by the other Party of any condition or provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other Party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or
provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must 
  

 - 13 - 

 
be in writing and signed by the Executive or an authorized officer of the Company, as the case may be. 

19. Withholding. 

The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be
withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. 
 20. Severability. 

In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable
for any reason, in whole or in part, the remaining parts, terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

21. Survivorship. 

The respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall survive any termination of the Executive’s employment to the
extent necessary to preserve such rights and obligations. 
 22. Controlling Document. 

If any provision of any agreement, plan, program, policy, arrangement or other written document between or relating to the Company and the
Executive conflicts with any provision of this Agreement, the provision of this Agreement shall control and prevail. 
 23.
Beneficiaries/References. 
 The Executive shall be entitled, to the extent permitted under any applicable law, to select
and change a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit payable hereunder following the Executive’s death by giving the Company written notice thereof. In the event of the Executive’s death, reference in this
Agreement to the Executive shall be deemed, where appropriate, to refer to his beneficiary, estate or other legal representative. 

24. Governing Law/Jurisdiction. 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference
to principles of conflicts of law unless superseded by federal law. The Parties agree that any suit, action or other legal proceeding that is commenced to resolve any matter arising under or relating to any provision of this Agreement shall be
commenced only in a court of the State of New York (or, if appropriate, a federal court located within the State of New York), and the Parties consent to the jurisdiction of such court. Each Party shall be responsible for paying its own fees and
expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) in connection with any dispute under this Agreement except to the extent (if any) 

 

 - 14 - 

 
that Executive’s legal fees and expenses are required to be reimbursed pursuant to the Indemnification Agreement and/or D&O insurance coverage referred to in Section 14. 

25. Notices. 

All notices shall be in writing, shall be hand delivered or sent to the following addresses listed below using a reputable overnight

26. Headings. 

The headings of the sections contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to control or affect the meaning
or construction of any provision of this Agreement. 
 27. Cooperation. 

The Executive agrees to cooperate with the Company in the investigation, defense or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence
or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of the Company related to events occurring during Executive’s employment with the Company. Such cooperation shall include meeting with representatives of the Company upon reasonable
notice at reasonable times and locations to prepare for discovery or any 
  

 - 15 - 

 
mediation, arbitration, trial, administrative hearing or other proceeding or to act as a witness. The Executive shall notify the Company if the Executive is asked to assist, testify or provide
information by or to any person, entity or agency in any such proceeding or investigation. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable attorney fees if it is determined
that utilization of Company counsel would create a conflict). The Company shall also compensate Executive for his time in connection with such cooperation if he is no longer employed by the Company at a rate of $300 per hour. Any such cooperation
occurring after the termination of Executive’s employment shall be subject to Executive’s other business and personal commitments, and shall be scheduled to the extent reasonably practicable so as not to unreasonably interfere with
Executive’s business or personal affairs. Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall require Executive to waive any legal rights he has or may have at any time. 

28. Compliance with Code Section 409A. 

(a) If any payment, compensation or other benefit provided to the Executive in connection with his employment termination is determined,
in whole or in part, to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and the Executive is a specified employee as defined in Section 409A(2)(B)(i), no part of such payments shall be paid
before the day that is six (6) months plus one (1) day after the date of termination (the “New Payment Date”). The aggregate of any payments that otherwise would have been paid to the Executive during the period between
the date of termination and the New Payment Date shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum on such New Payment Date. Thereafter, any payments that remain outstanding as of the day immediately following the New Payment Date shall be paid without
delay over the time period originally scheduled, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the foregoing applies to the provision of any ongoing welfare benefits to the Executive that would not
be required to be delayed if the premiums therefor were paid by the Executive, the Executive shall pay the full cost of premiums for such welfare benefits during the six-month period and the Company shall pay the Executive an amount equal to the
amount of such premiums paid by the Executive during such six-month period promptly after its conclusion. 
 (b) The Parties
acknowledge and agree that the interpretation of Section 409A and its application to the terms of this Agreement is uncertain and may be subject to change as additional guidance and interpretations become available. Anything to the contrary
herein notwithstanding, all benefits or payments provided by the Company to the Executive that would be deemed to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A are intended to comply with
Section 409A. If, however, any such benefit or payment is deemed to not comply with Section 409A, the Company and the Executive agree to renegotiate in good faith any such benefit or payment (including, without limitation, as to the timing
of any severance payments payable hereof) so that either (i) Section 409A will not apply or (ii) compliance with Section 409A will be achieved; provided, however, that any resulting renegotiated terms shall provide to the
Executive the after-tax economic equivalent of what otherwise has been provided to the Executive pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and provided further, that any deferral of payments or other benefits shall be only for such time period as may
be required to comply with Section 409A.

 29. Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, and such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures
delivered by facsimile shall be deemed effective for all purposes to the extent permitted under applicable law.

 EXHIBIT A 

This RELEASE (“Release”) dated as of
                                         between
Comverse Technology, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), and Lance Miyamoto (the “Executive”). 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive previously entered into an employment agreement dated
                     under which the Executive was employed to serve as the Company’s Executive Vice President, Global Head of Human Resources
(the “Employment Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Executive’s employment with the Company (has been) (will be)
terminated effective                                 ; and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 12 of the Employment Agreement, the Executive is entitled to certain compensation and benefits upon
such termination, contingent upon the execution of this Release; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual
agreements contained herein and in the Employment Agreement, the Company and the Executive agree as follows: 
 1. The
Executive, on his own behalf and on behalf of his heirs, estate and beneficiaries, does hereby release the Company, and in such capacities, any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and each past or present officer, director, agent, employee,
shareholder, and insurer of any such entities, from any and all claims made, to be made, or which might have been made of whatever nature, whether known or unknown, from the beginning of time, including those that arose as a consequence of his
employment with the Company, or arising out of the severance of such employment relationship, or arising out of any act committed or omitted during or after the existence of such employment relationship, all up through and including the date on
which this Release is executed, including, but not limited to, those which were, could have been or could be the subject of an administrative or judicial proceeding filed by the Executive or on his behalf under federal, state or local law, whether
by statute, regulation, in contract or tort, and including, but not limited to, every claim for front pay, back pay, wages, bonus, fringe benefit, any form of discrimination (including but not limited to, every claim of race, color, sex, religion,
national origin, disability or age discrimination), wrongful termination, emotional distress, pain and suffering, breach of contract, compensatory or punitive damages, interest, attorney’s fees, reinstatement or reemployment. If any arbitrator
or court rules that such waiver of rights to file, or have filed on his behalf, any administrative or judicial charges or complaints is ineffective, the Executive agrees not to seek or accept any money damages or any other relief upon the filing of
any such administrative or judicial charges or complaints. The Executive relinquishes any right to future employment with the Company and the Company shall have the right to refuse to re-employ the Executive, in each case without liability of the
Executive or the Company. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that even though claims and facts in addition to those now known or believed by him to exist may subsequently be discovered, it is his intention to fully

 
settle and release all claims he may have against the Company and the persons and entities described above, whether known, unknown or suspected. 

2. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that the release
                     contained in Paragraph 1 does not, and shall not be construed to, release or limit the scope of, or preclude the Executive from
asserting his rights to enforce any existing obligation of the Company (i) to indemnify the Executive for his acts as an officer or director of Company in accordance with the Company’s By-laws, the Indemnification Agreement (as defined in
Section 14 of the Employment Agreement), and other agreements or the law, as to continued coverage and rights under director and officer liability insurance policies, (ii) to the Executive and his eligible, participating dependents or
beneficiaries under any existing group welfare, equity, or retirement plan of the Company in which the Executive and/or such dependents are participants, or (iii) to pay any amounts payable under the terms of the Employment Agreement
(including, without limitation, any severance or other items payable following termination of Executive’s employment). In addition, Executive does not waive his right to file a charge with the EEOC or participate in an investigation conducted
by the EEOC; however, Executive expressly waives his right to monetary or other relief should any administrative agency, including but not limited to the EEOC, pursue any claim on Employee’s behalf. 

3. The Executive acknowledges that he has been provided at least 21 days to review the Release and has been advised to review it with an
attorney of his choice. In the event the Executive elects to sign this Release prior to this 21 day period, he agrees that it is a knowing and voluntary waiver of his right to wait the full 21 days. The Executive further understand that he has 7
days after the signing hereof to revoke it by so notifying the Company in writing, such notice to be received by                      within the 7
day period. The Executive further acknowledge that he has carefully read this Release, knows and understands its contents and its binding legal effect. The Executive acknowledge that by signing this Release, he does so of his own free will and act
and that it is his intention that he be legally bound by its terms. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this
Release on the date first above written.

This Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Employment Agreement, dated October 30, 2007 (the “Employment Agreement”), by and
between Comverse Technology, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), and Lance Miyamoto (the “Executive”) is entered into on December 4, 2008 by and between the Company and the Executive (collectively, the

 W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company previously entered into the Employment Agreement under which the Company continues to employ the Executive;

 WHEREAS, the Parties wish to amend the Employment Agreement to make certain changes to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of

	 	(a)	Section l(i)(i) is hereby amended to read as follows: 

a material reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary or Target Bonus, other than as part of an across-the-board reduction applicable
to all senior executives of the Company that results in a reduction to the Executive proportional to that of other executives, provided, however, that an across-the-board reduction of Executive’s compensation in excess of 10% of Base Salary or
20% of Target Bonus shall constitute Good Reason; 
  

	 	(b)	Section 9 is hereby amended to read as follows: 

During the Term of Employment, the Executive is authorized to incur reasonable business expenses in carrying out his duties and
responsibilities under this Agreement, and the Company shall reimburse him for all such reasonable business expenses, subject to documentation in accordance with the Company’s policies relating thereto. In no event shall any eligible expense
reimbursements be made later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such expense is incurred. 
  

	 	(c)	Section 12(h) is hereby amended to read as follows: 

As a condition precedent to receiving the compensation and benefits provided under Section 12(c) and 12(e) (but not any of the
amounts described in clauses (i), (vii) and (ix) of Sections 12(c) and 12(e) above), the Executive shall execute a waiver and release substantially in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A within 45 days following his
termination of employment date.

provision of any ongoing welfare benefits to the Executive that would not be required to be delayed if the premiums therefor were paid by the Executive, the Executive shall pay the full cost of premiums for such welfare benefits during the six-month
period and the Company shall pay the Executive an amount equal to the amount of such premiums paid by the Executive during such six-month period promptly after its conclusion. 

 

	2.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and all of which taken together will constitute one
and the same written agreement, which will be binding and effective as to all the Parties.
