PRESS RELEASE

Amdocs Announces Eli Gelman to Succeed Dov Baharav as President and CEO in
Early Calendar 2011

ST. LOUIS — September 6, 2010 — Amdocs Limited (NYSE: DOX) today announced that Dov Baharav, President and CEO of Amdocs Management Limited, will retire in the first quarter of calendar 2011 and be replaced by Eli Gelman, a current director of Amdocs Limited and its former Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Baharav will also resign as a director of the company upon his retirement.

     “For 20 years at Amdocs, we have had the good fortune of Dov Baharav’s leadership as a senior executive and, over the past eight years, as Chief Executive Officer,” said Bruce Anderson, Chairman of the Board of Amdocs Limited. “His contributions to the firm cannot be overstated.”

     “Dov began his tenure at a difficult time for the company and led it to new heights. During his years as CEO, Amdocs doubled its revenue, significantly grew its product and services portfolio, expanded its global presence, and, ultimately, became the world’s leading provider of customer experience systems. His accomplishments for the company, its customers and shareholders are there for all to see. We are grateful for his skills, his service and his friendship. He will be missed greatly.”

     Mr. Anderson said Mr. Gelman was well positioned to lead Amdocs in the future: “We are fortunate to have Eli Gelman return to the executive team and become our new CEO. Eli’s experience and knowledge of the company and our industry will be critical assets for Amdocs in the years ahead.”

     “After 20 years with Amdocs, it is with great pleasure that I will transition my responsibilities over the next several months to an extraordinary leader with whom I have worked closely and in whom I have great confidence,” said Baharav. “Eli has been a key player in Amdocs’ exceptional growth and industry leadership over his career. With Eli in charge, backed by Amdocs’ outstanding leadership team, proud workforce and profound infrastructure, I have great faith in the company’s ability to capitalize on the many opportunities in the market and to continue Amdocs’ industry leadership and growth in the years to come.”

     Gelman has more than 30 years of experience in the software industry, including more than 20 years with Amdocs. During his tenure at Amdocs, Mr. Gelman served as Executive Vice President

from 2002 until 2007 and as Amdocs’ Chief Operating Officer from October 2006 until April 2008. In addition to his service on the Amdocs Board of Directors, including active participation on its Technology Committee, Gelman has served as Chairman of the Board of Retalix, since January 2010.

     “Amdocs is a great company and I feel extremely privileged to return as the next CEO,” said Gelman. “I have been delighted to work closely with Dov for over 20 years, whose leadership and commitment have contributed so significantly to the company’s growth and development. I look forward to working with Dov on a smooth transition. Together with Amdocs’ very experienced and talented leadership team, I am confident that we can further strengthen Amdocs’ position in years to come.”
