Item 8.01.

Other Events.

On July 26, 2011, a subsidiary of Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Cognizant”), entered into a definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with CoreLogic, Inc. (“CoreLogic”) and an affiliate thereof to acquire CoreLogic Global Services Private Limited (“CLI”). The purchase price will consist of a cash payment of approximately $50 million, plus adjustments for working capital and other charges or credits which will be determined at closing.

As part of the transaction, CoreLogic and Cognizant will enter into a services agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with a minimum revenue commitment of $324 million, plus applicable inflation adjustments, over five years with various renewal and extension rights, under which Cognizant will provide a range of services to CoreLogic globally. Together, the companies expect to provide end-to-end business process and analytics solutions across the mortgage value chain, from loan origination, escrow, title and closing services through secondary markets, loan administration, and loan default management. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive or recognize such amount of revenue during such period or that the Services Agreement will not be terminated prior to its expiration in accordance with its terms.

Subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, the transaction is expected to close in August 2011.
