A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this offer letter providing for the
payment of any amounts or benefits subject to Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and for purposes of any such
provision of this offer letter, references to a “resignation,” “termination,” “terminate,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean separation from service. 

All reimbursements for costs and expenses under this offer letter will be paid in no event later than the end of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which you incur such expense. With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement
or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for
reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year, provided, however, that the foregoing clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the
Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect. Any tax gross-up payments under this offer letter will be paid in no event later than the end of the calendar year following the year in
which any excise tax, income tax or other amount comprising a gross-up payment was remitted to the relevant taxing authority. 
  

	 	25.	 Please be advised your employment with Comverse will be “at will” which means that either you or Comverse may terminate your employment with
the Company at any time with or without cause. Neither this offer letter, the Employee Confidentiality, Intellectual Property, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement, nor the content of any discussions with Comverse

  
 12 

 

 

  

	 	 
constitutes a contract of employment for any specified duration. The terms of this offer supersede any other agreements or promises, written or oral, made to you by anyone on behalf of the
Company and you acknowledge that you have not relied upon any other written or verbal discussions concerning employment with Comverse. The terms of this offer cannot be modified or amended unless such a change is made in writing and signed by an
authorized representative of the Company. 

  

	 	26.	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this letter, to the extent that any of the payments and benefits provided for under this letter or any other
agreement or arrangement between you and the Company (collectively, the “Payments”) (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this Section 16, would
be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Payments shall be payable either (i) in full or (ii) as to such lesser amount which would result in no portion of such Payments being subject to excise tax
under Section 4999 of the Code; whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, results in your receipt on an after-tax basis, of the
greatest amount of benefits under this letter, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. Unless you and the Company otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this
Section shall be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon you and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the
calculations required by this Section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely in reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the
Code. The Company and you shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably
incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section. If the limitation set forth in this Section 14 is applied to reduce an amount payable to you, and the Internal Revenue Service successfully asserts that, despite the
reduction, you have nonetheless received payments which are in excess of the maximum amount that could have been paid to you without being subjected to any excise tax, then, unless it would be unlawful for the Company to make such a loan or similar
extension of credit to you, you may repay such excess amount to the Company as though such amount constitutes a loan to you made at the date of payment of such excess amount, bearing interest at 120% of the applicable federal rate (as determined
under Section 1274(d) of the Code in respect of such loan). 

  

	 	27.	It is understood and agreed that this offer letter and the Employee Confidentiality, Intellectual Property, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement, constitute
the entire agreement between Comverse and you with respect to your employment by the Company. In the case of a conflict between the terms of this offer letter and the Employee Confidentiality, Intellectual Property, Non-Solicitation and
Non-Competition Agreement, the terms of the Employee Confidentiality, Intellectual Property, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement shall control. This offer letter is 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. Each party shall be responsible for paying its own fees and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) in connection with any dispute
under this offer letter. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the parties hereby expressly waive their right to a jury trial for any claim relating to rights or obligations under this offer letter.

through a source other than Employee and through no fault of Employee. 
 d. “Creative Works” means any and all
original works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression, including, but not limited to, writings, compilations of data, charts, drawings, software, videos, photographs, music, designs, and mask works, and further including, but not

 e. “Duly Authorized Representative” means an employee of the Company at

the date signed below, during which Employee was or is employed, either full or part-time, by any entity included within the definition of the Company. 
 g. “Intellectual Property Rights” means the collection of proprietary legal rights in Inventions, Creative Works, Confidential Information, and other related forms of intangible property
that can be protected under various patent, copyright, mask work, trademark, trade secret and know-how, and related laws.

compositions of matter, and further including, but not limited to, any other subject matter for which a patent or inventor’s certificate may be obtained. 
 2. Confidentiality: Employee acknowledges that, as a result of Employee’s Employment, Employee will have access to Confidential Information and other valuable rights of the Company. In

Employee agrees that: (i) Employee will treat as confidential and protect the secrecy of any Confidential Information that may be made available to Employee, (ii) Employee will not disclose, publish, or otherwise make any Confidential
Information known to the public or to any third party and (iii) Employee will not use any Confidential Information for the benefit of any person or organization (including Employee) other than the Company.

 4. Third-Party Confidentiality: 

a. Employee shall not disclose to the Company or induce the Company to use any confidential or proprietary information belonging to
persons not affiliated with the Company, including any of Employee’s former employers. Employee also acknowledges that the Company has disclosed to Employee that the Company is now, and may be in the future, subject to duties to third parties
to maintain information in confidence and secrecy. By executing this Agreement, Employee consents to be bound by any such duty owed by the Company to any third party. 
 b. Except for any prior obligations that Employee may have that are contained in any previous agreements of which Employee has attached a copy hereto, Employee represents that Employee is not subject to
any agreement containing a non-competition, non-solicitation, or any other restriction with respect to (i) the nature of any services or business that Employee is being hired to perform or conduct for the Company, or (ii) the disclosure or
use of any information that directly or indirectly relates to the business of the Company or to the nature of any services that Employee expects to be performing for the Company. 

c. Employee further represents that Employee has not disclosed or used, and will not disclose or use, during Employee’s Employment,
any confidential information that Employee acquired as a result of any previous employment or under a contractual obligation of confidentiality before the commencement of Employee’s Employment with the Company. 

5. Submission of Inventions and Creative Works: Employee shall promptly submit, to a designated representative of the Company, a written
description of all ideas, discoveries, improvements, designs, writings, and all Inventions and Creative Works, whether or not patentable or copyrightable, that Employee may conceive or make or author, either solely or jointly with others, at any
time during Employment, whether or not on Employee’s own time or with the Company’s resources, that relate to the present or anticipated business, research, or development of the Company; and Employee shall create, maintain, preserve, and
make available to the Company as part of the Company’s property, complete, accurate, and up-to-date records, including but not limited to, correspondence, prototypes, models, drafts, and other written or tangible data, of all such inventive and
creative activity. The Company shall promptly consider Employee’s written request to maintain any such submission in confidence. 
 6.
Ownership of Inventions: Employee hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company all right, title, and interest in any Inventions Employee conceives or makes, either solely or jointly with others, at any time during Employment, and
whether or not developed on Employee’s own time or with the Company’s resources, and Employees agrees that ownership is and shall reside in the Company; EXCEPT, however, that this assignment does not apply to, and Employee retains
ownership of, any Invention: (i) that does not relate to the present or anticipated business, research, or development of the Company; and (ii) that Employee can show did not involve the use of any equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade
secret information of the Company; and (iii) that did not result from any work Employee performed for the Company; and (iv) that Employee developed entirely on Employee’s own time. Any such Invention first reduced to practice within
twelve (12) months after termination of Employment shall be disclosed by Employee to the Company and treated as if conceived during such Employment unless Employee can establish specific events giving rise to the conception that occurred after
such Employment. Employee has specifically listed, in the space provided in Section 9 of this Agreement entitled “List of All Employee Prior Intellectual Property Rights”, any and all Inventions Employee conceived or made or acquired
prior to Employment, and Employee hereby disclaims ownership of and agrees not to assert against the Company any rights in any Inventions not so listed. The Company agrees 

  
 18 

 

 

  

 
to promptly consider Employee’s written request for a release of any Invention for which this Agreement does not apply or in which the Company has no commercial interest. 

7. Ownership of Creative Works: Employee acknowledges that all Creative Works that are covered by the definition of a “work made for
hire” under 17 U.S.C. § 101 of the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976 will be considered a “work made for hire”, and the Company will be regarded as the author and owner of all copyrights in any such works. As to any Creative Works
that are not “works made for hire” under the Copyright Act, such that Employee is regarded as the copyright author and owner, Employee hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company all right, title, and interest in any such Creative
Works authored, either solely or jointly with others, at any time during Employment, and whether or not developed on Employee’s own time or with the Company’s resources, and Employee agrees that ownership is and shall reside in the
Company; EXCEPT, however, that this assignment does not apply to, and Employee retains ownership of, any Creative Works: (i) that do not relate to the present or anticipated business, research, or development of the Company; and (ii) that
Employee can show did not involve the use of any equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information of the Company; and (iii) that did not result from any work Employee performed for the Company; and (iv) that Employee authored
entirely on Employee’s own time. Employee has specifically listed, in the space provided in Section 9 of this Agreement entitled “List of All Employee Prior Intellectual Property Rights”, any and all Creative Works Employee has
authored or acquired prior to Employment that relate to the present or anticipated business, research, or development of the Company, and hereby disclaims ownership of and shall not assert against the Company any rights in any Creative Works not so
listed. The Company agrees to promptly consider Employee’s written request for a release of any Creative Works for which this Agreement does not apply or in which the Company has no commercial interest. 

8. Cooperation: Both during and after Employment, Employee shall cooperate with the Company and promptly review, sign, and return all documents,
communicate all pertinent information, and do anything else reasonably requested by the Company to obtain, maintain, enforce, and defend its Intellectual Property Rights and to vest in the Company all rights therein free of all encumbrances and
adverse claims. Employee will not be entitled to further compensation for these services, except that Employee will be entitled to receive reasonable compensation for the time reasonably required for such services rendered after termination of
Employment. 
 9. List of All Employee Prior Intellectual Property Rights: As required by Sections 6 and 7, Employee hereby identifies
all Inventions and Creative Works conceived or made or acquired, either alone or jointly with others, prior to Employment. Employee represents that this list is complete. If there is no information listed, Employee represents that no such Inventions
or Creative Works exist.

 10. At-Will Employment: Employee understands and acknowledges that this Agreement does not
constitute an employment contract for a specific term, and that Employee is free to resign from Employment and the Company is free to terminate Employment at any time, for any or no reason, with or without notice, except as otherwise stated in
Employee’s offer letter. 
 11. Future Employment: During Employment and for a period of twelve (12) months immediately
following termination of Employment for any reason (voluntarily or involuntarily), prior to accepting employment with any new employer that has been, is, or, to the knowledge of the Employee, plans to be engaged in competition with the Company,
Employee will inform such employer of the existence of this Agreement and provide such employer with a copy. Employee authorizes the Company to forward a copy of this Agreement to any actual or prospective new employer, and inform any actual or
prospective new employer of any concerns the Company may have about actual or possible conduct by Employee that may be in breach of this Agreement. 
 12. Non-Competition: Employee shall not, during Employment and for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following termination of Employment for any reason (voluntarily or involuntarily),
directly or indirectly engage in any activity on behalf of a Company Competitor in any capacity relating to any product(s) or service(s) on which Employee worked on behalf of the Company during Employment or about which Employee had access to
Confidential Information during Employment. As used herein, “Company Competitor” means any person or organization (including Employee acting independently) engaged in, or, to the knowledge of the Employee, planning to engage in, any of the
businesses of the Company, specifically including any activity related to the development, sale, production, manufacturing, marketing or distribution of products or services which are in competition with the Company’s then current or intended
products or services. The restrictions under this Section will be applicable in any state or country in which the Company then conducts business or reasonably has plans to conduct business. It is not the intent of these restrictions to bar
Employee from employment in a non-competitive capacity for any company whose general business is the manufacture of communications equipment or delivery of communications services. 
 13. Non-Solicitation: Employee shall not, during Employment and for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following termination of Employment for any reason (voluntarily or
involuntarily), directly or indirectly, engage in, assist in, or be connected in any manner with: (i) the solicitation of business from any of the Company’s clients or customers with whom Employee interacted as part of Employment (except
for and on behalf of the Company), nor any attempt to induce any of the Company’s suppliers, licensees, clients, customers or other business relations with whom Employee interacted as part of Employment to withdraw from, or reduce their
business with, the Company; or (ii) the solicitation for employment, consulting, or contract work of any of the Company’s employees, nor any attempt to induce any of the Company’s employees to leave employment with the Company,
without the express prior written consent of a Duly Authorized Representative of the Company. 
 14. Remedies: 

a. EMPLOYEE AGREES THAT THE DURATION AND GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE OF THE NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 12
AND 13 ARE REASONABLE AND ACCEPTABLE. 
 b. Employee recognizes that the obligations to assign certain Inventions and Creative
Works to the Company, not disclose or use Confidential Information, and not to compete or solicit, are special, unique, and of extraordinary character, for which an action at law for monetary damages would not be adequate in the event of a breach.
Therefore, in the event of any actual or threatened breach of those obligations, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies available to it, to specific 

  
 20 

 

 

  

 
performance, to preliminary, temporary or permanent injunctive relief, or to any other equitable relief that the court may find just and proper to enforce this Agreement, along with recovering
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of prosecuting any action. 
 c. In the event that an appropriate court determines
that any provisions of Sections 12 (Non-Competition) and 13 (Non-Solicitation), including the provisions regarding duration, geographic scope, prohibited activities, or otherwise, are unenforceable, the restrictions and limitations of these
paragraphs may be reduced or curtailed to the extent necessary to render them enforceable and that those Sections shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period and in the greatest area that would not render them unenforceable.
The Company and Employee intend Sections 12 and 13 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 those provisions are intended to be effective. 
 15. Assignment: Employee acknowledges that the
services to be rendered by Employee are unique and personal. Accordingly, Employee may not assign any of Employee’s rights or delegate any of Employee’s duties or obligations under this Agreement. The Company may assign its rights and
delegate any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement in its sole discretion. 
 16. Notices: Any notice required or desired to
be given under this Agreement shall be deemed given only if in writing sent by overnight carrier or registered/certified mail as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	 If to Employee: To Employee’s most recent home address provided to the Company. 

 

	 	•	 	 If to Company: To Company’s then current mailing address and to the attention of Vice President of Americas HR Service Center.

 17. Applicable Law: This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of
the State of New York, without reference to its principles of conflict of laws. This Agreement is intended to supplement, and not supersede, any remedies or claims that may be available to the Company under applicable law, including any claims
asserting misappropriation of trade secrets or unfair trade practices. 
 18. Jury Waiver: TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
LAW, THE PARTIES HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. 
 19. Severability: If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. If any provision is
held invalid or unenforceable with respect to particular circumstances, it shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect in all other circumstances. 
 20. Waiver: No waiver by either party of any breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation hereof. In the
event that Employee believes that employment otherwise in violation of this Agreement would not harm the Company’s legitimate business interests, Employee may request the Company to waive certain of the restrictions contained in this Agreement.
Any such request shall be made, pursuant to Section 16 of this Agreement, in writing to the Company’s Vice President of Americas HR Service Center and shall identify the business with whom the Employee seeks to associate and describe the
duties that the Employee seeks to perform. The Company has the sole discretion whether to grant such a waiver. No waiver of any 

  
 21 

 

 

  

 
restrictions under this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by a Duly Authorized Representative of the Company. 
 21. Headings: The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 

22. Survival: 
 a.
Employee’s obligations under this Agreement and the Company’s rights under this Agreement shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company. 

b. Employee’s obligations hereunder shall continue in full force and effect in the event that Employee’s job title or
responsibilities or other conditions of Employment with the Company change subsequent to the execution of the Agreement, without the need to execute a new agreement. 
 23. Amendments: This Agreement may not be amended, nor shall any waiver, change, modification, consent or discharge hereof be affected except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of
the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, waiver, change, modification, consent or discharge is sought. 
 24. Entire
Agreement: This Agreement is the entire agreement between the Company and Employee and supersedes any previous oral or written agreement or understanding between the Company and Employee with respect to the subject matter hereof. No other
representations, warranties, promises, or undertakings have been made or are valid other than those expressly contained in this Agreement. 

  
 22 

 

 

  

 BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, EMPLOYEE HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT EMPLOYEE HAS READ AND FULLY UNDERSTANDS THE
MEANING OF ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE ABOVE NOTICE REGARDING INVENTIONS, AND THAT EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THE RIGHT TO SEEK INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL BEFORE SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT.

 Exhibit B to U.S. Offer Letter 

Form of Release 
 This RELEASE (“Release”) dated as of                      between Comverse,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Aharon Levy (the “Executive”). 
 WHEREAS,
the Company and the Executive previously entered into an employment offer letter dated             , 2011 under which the Executive was employed to serve as the Company’s Senior
Vice President, BSS General Manager (the “Offer Letter”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Executive’s employment with
the Company (has been) (will be) terminated effective                     ; and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Offer Letter, 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 Offer Letter, 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 of their respective past, present and future officers, directors, agents, employees, shareholders, employee
benefit plans and their administrators or fiduciaries, insurer of any such entities, and its and their successors and assigns and others related to such entities, in each case, only in such person’s capacity as such, 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 separation from the
Company, 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 benefits, any form of discrimination (including but not limited to, every claim of race, color, sex, religion, national origin, disability or age
discrimination), wrongful termination, tort, emotional distress, pain and suffering, breach of contract, fraud, defamation, compensatory or punitive damages, interest, attorney’s fees, reinstatement or reemployment, and any rights or claims
under the Civil Rights Act of 1866; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act; the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VII, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended; the Equal Pay Act; the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act; or any other federal, state or local law relating to employment, discrimination in employment, termination of employment,
wages, benefits or otherwise. 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 

  
 24 

 

 

  

 
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.

faith and fairness between the parties. Any such breach shall harm the Company and/or the Company Affiliates and shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and the employment agreement to which this Agreement is attached. 

11.3 My obligations under this Agreement and the restricted period of time and geographical area specified herein are reasonable and proportional, and do
not prevent me from developing my general knowledge and professional expertise in the area of my business, without infringing on or breaching any of the Company’s rights.
