CONTENTS
 
Completion of the Acquisition of Orsus
 
The acquisition of Orsus, a leading provider of Security Management Solutions, was completed on January 11, 2010. The acquisition, originally announced on November 23, 2009, was for a total consideration of approximately $22 million, subject to certain adjustments.

NICE expects the deal to generate additional non-GAAP revenues of several millions of dollars in 2010 and to become accretive on a non-GAAP earnings per fully diluted share basis in the fourth quarter of 2010. For each of the first three quarters of 2010, NICE expects the deal to be slightly dilutive on a non-GAAP earning per fully diluted shares basis. These estimates exclude acquisition related expenses and amortization of acquired intangible assets as well as certain business combination.

This report on Form 6-K contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the management of NICE only, and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results or performance of NICE to differ materially from those described herein, including but not limited to the impact of the global economic environment on NICE’s customer base (particularly financial services firms) and the resulting uncertainties; changes in technology and market requirements; decline in demand for NICE's products; inability to timely develop and introduce new technologies, products and applications; difficulties or delays in absorbing and integrating acquired operations, products, technologies and personnel; loss of market share; pressure on pricing resulting from competition; and inability to maintain certain marketing and distribution arrangements. For a more detailed description of the risk factors and uncertainties affecting the company, refer to NICE's reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F.  The forward-looking statements contained in this report on Form 6-K are made as of the date of this Form 6-K, and NICE undertakes no obligation to update or revise them, except as required by law.
