Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan

On September 22, 2006 the Company amended the eFunds Corporation Non-Employee Directors Deferred Compensation Program (the "Program") to enable participating directors to elect to defer the settlement of any restricted stock units (RSUs) awarded to them in 2007 and beyond. Deferred RSUs will continue to vest (i.e. lose their risk of forfeiture) over their scheduled term, but the conversion of a deferred RSU into shares of common stock will be deferred until a date selected by the holder of that award in their deferral election.

Independent directors can continue to elect to defer the payment of any cash retainer fees under the amended Program. Fees that are so deferred are credited to a participating directors account in the form of RSUs (with each RSU being deemed to have a value equal to the fair market value of one share of common stock on its date of issuance). The RSUs are credited to the individuals participating in the fee deferral aspect of the Program on a quarterly basis and will be converted into shares of common stock in accordance with the deferral election made by the participating Director.

The amendments to the Program also allow participating directors to elect to have any RSUs credited to their accounts in 2007 and thereafter converted into shares of common stock in a lump sum upon termination of their service on the Board or on a subsequent anniversary of their service termination date, converted in installments following a termination of service or settled during their continued tenure on the Board. Prior to the most recent amendment to the Program, all of the RSUs credited to a participating directors account were converted into shares and issued to the director upon the termination of his or her service on the Board and this distribution method will remain as the sole option for deferrals credited prior to 2007. Each RSU issued under the Program receives dividend equivalent payments equal to any cash dividend paid on one share of common stock.

Technical Amendment to the eFunds Corporation 2006 Stock Incentive Plan

The Company amended the eFunds Corporation 2006 Stock Incentive Plan on September 22, 2006 to clarify that if there is any equity restructuring involving the Company, appropriate equitable adjustments must be made to awards outstanding under that plan to ensure that all of the holders of those awards are in the same economic position after the equity restructuring as they were before its occurrence.
