ACI Worldwide Extends Expiration Date for S1 Exchange Offer; Enters Into Timing Agreement With DOJ

NEW YORK, Nov. 30, 2011 - ACI Worldwide, Inc. (Nasdaq:ACIW) announced today that it has extended its exchange offer for all of the outstanding shares of common stock of S1 Corporation (Nasdaq:SONE) until 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on Thursday, December 29, 2011, unless further extended.

The Company also announced that ACI and S1 have entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ") in order to permit the DOJ additional time to review the information furnished by ACI and S1 to the DOJ under the U.S. premerger clearance laws (the "HSR Act"). The agreement also provides that ACI and S1 will give the DOJ ten days notice prior to closing the transaction and will not close the transaction before January 31, 2012 without the DOJ's prior consent.

ACI and S1 have furnished a substantial portion of the information requested by the DOJ pursuant to the previously announced second request for information and agreed to certify compliance with the DOJ's information request within seven days.

As previously announced, the DOJ's second request for information is focused on the card payments business. In 2010, S1's card payments business generated approximately $11.9 million in revenue in the United States.

The Company stated: "ACI is pleased to have submitted information in connection with the second request and looks forward to continuing to work with the DOJ so that it can expeditiously complete its review of the proposed transaction."

There can be no assurance as to what actions the DOJ may take in connection with the proposed acquisition or whether the DOJ may seek to extend the January 31, 2012 end date based on its review of the information provided by ACI and S1. There can also be no assurance whether the DOJ will consent to any request to close the transaction before January 31, 2012.
