Pursuant and subject to the terms of the Share Sale and Purchase Agreement
relating to Cramer, dated July 18, 2006, by and among the Registrant,
Amdocs Astrum Limited and certain shareholders of Cramer, as amended (the
"Agreement"), the Registrant assumed the Cramer Enterprise Management
Incentives Scheme, and the Cramer Y Share Scheme, and intends to grant
replacement awards or options under those plans to certain Cramer employees
who continued to be employed by the Registrant following the acquisition,
each with appropriate adjustments to the number of shares and exercise
price of each option or award. Pursuant to Rule 416 of the Securities Act,
this Registration Statement shall also cover any additional Ordinary Shares
that become issuable under the plan being registered pursuant to this
Registration Statement by reason of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization or any other similar transaction effected without the
receipt of consideration that results in an increase in the number of the
Registrant's outstanding Ordinary Shares.
(2) Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee in
accordance with Rule 457(h) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The
price per share and aggregate offering price are calculated on the basis of
(a) $6.50 the weighted-average exercise price of the 162,486 Ordinary
Shares subject to replacement option grants under the Cramer Enterprise
Management Incentives Scheme, at prices ranging from $1.76 to $11.64, and
(b) $39.01, the average of the high and low sale prices of the Ordinary
Shares of the Registrant on the New York Stock Exchange on September 22,
2006, in accordance with Rule 457(c) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, for the aggregate 89,775 shares issuable under the Cramer Y Share
Scheme.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being filed to register Ordinary
Shares of Amdocs Limited (the "Registrant") issuable pursuant to the Cramer

Agreement relating to Cramer, dated July 18, 2006, by and among the Registrant,

ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
Not applicable.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Guernsey law permits a company's articles of association to provide for the
indemnification of officers and directors except to the extent that such a
provision may be held by the courts of Guernsey to be contrary to public policy
(for instance, for purporting to provide indemnification against the
consequences of committing a crime) and except to the extent that Guernsey law
prohibits the indemnification of any director against any specific provisions of
Guernsey Company law under which personal liability may be imposed or incurred.
Under the Registrant's Articles of Association, the Registrant is obligated to
indemnify any person who is made or threatened to be made a party to a legal or
administrative proceeding by virtue of being a director, officer or agent of the
Registrant, provided that it has no such obligation to indemnify any such
persons for any claims they incur or sustain by or through their own willful act
or default.
The Registrant has entered into an indemnity agreement with its directors and
some of its officers, under which it has agreed to pay the indemnified party the
amount of Loss (as defined therein) suffered by that party due to claims made
against that party for a Wrongful Act (as defined therein).
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.
Not applicable.
ITEM 8. EXHIBITS.
The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated herein by
reference.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
1. Item 512(a) of Regulation S-K. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the
registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or
furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
2. Item 512(b) of Regulation S-K. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes
that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3. Item 512(h) of Regulation S-K. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant

Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
