Q: Receiving Party shall not reverse engineer any objects which embody Disclosing Party's Confidential Information. Text: Exhibit (d)(2) February 8th, 2018 NICE Ltd. 13 Zarchin Street Raanana Israel Non-Disclosure Agreement Ladies and Gentlemen: In connection with your consideration of the possible business combination transaction (the “Transaction”) between you and Mattersight Corporation (the “Company”), the Company and you expect to make available to one another certain nonpublic information concerning their respective businesses, financial condition, operations, technologies, assets and liabilities. As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure by the disclosing party to include any legend or other marking of the Evaluation Material as confidential or proprietary shall not be dispositive as to whether such information is Evaluation Material, provided that such information should reasonably be deemed by its nature to be confidential. 2. Purpose of Disclosure of Evaluation Material. It is understood and agreed to by each party that any exchange of information under this Agreement shall be solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction and shall not affect, in any way, each party’s relative competitive position to the other party or to other entities. It is further agreed that the information to be disclosed to each other shall only be that information which is reasonably necessary to evaluate the Transaction and that information which is not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall not be disclosed or exchanged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any information that is inadvertently disclosed and not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall be immediately returned to the disclosing party, and shall otherwise be treated as Evaluation Material. 3. Use of Evaluation Material. Each party hereby agrees that it and its Representatives shall use the other’s Evaluation Material solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction. The receiving party shall hold the disclosing party’s Evaluation Material strictly confidential and shall not disclose such Evaluation Material in any manner to, or permit the use thereof by, any person or entity other than its Representatives that who in each case have a “need to know” (as defined below) or have access to such Evaluation Material in order to perform their responsibilities in connection with the Transaction and who are subject to obligations of confidentiality substantially similar to those imposed by this Agreement. A “need to know” means that the Representative(s) requires access to the Confidential Information in order to accomplish or effect the Transaction. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breaches of the terms of this Agreement by its Representatives and the receiving party agrees, at its sole expense, to take all reasonable measures (including, but not limited to, court proceedings) to restrain its Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized disclosure or use of the Evaluation Material. The receiving party shall make only the number of copies of Evaluation Material necessary to disseminate the information to the Representatives and ensure that any confidentiality or copyright notices set forth on the Evaluation Material are reproduced in full on such copies. In no event may a receiving party reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Evaluation Materials. The receiving party shall safeguard the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care to avoid unauthorized disclosure and use as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. The receiving party shall provide the disclosing party with full and prompt written notice of any breach in the security or confidentiality of the Evaluation Material while in the receiving party or its Representatives possession or control, including potential breach resulting from an unauthorized intrusion. 4. Non-Disclosure of Transaction. In addition, each party agrees that, without the prior written consent of the other party, such party and its Representatives will not disclose to any other person the existence of this Agreement, the fact that any Evaluation Material has been made available hereunder, that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect thereto, or that the Transaction is being contemplated; provided, that a party may make such disclosure if, in the written opinion of such party’s outside counsel, such disclosure is necessary to avoid committing a violation of law. In such event, the party required to make such disclosure shall comply with the provisions of paragraph 5 below. 5. Required Disclosure of Evaluation Material. In the event that a party or its Representatives are required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process or any rule, regulation or policy statement of any national securities exchange, market or automated quotation system on which any of the receiving party’s securities are listed or quoted) to disclose (i) any of the other party’s Evaluation Material or (ii) that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction, the party requested or required to make the disclosure shall provide the other party with prompt notice of any such request or requirement so that the other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by such other party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or any of its Representatives are nonetheless, in the opinion of counsel, legally compelled by any requirement described in the first sentence of this paragraph 5 to disclose the other party’s Evaluation Material to any third party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or its Representative may disclose to such third party only that portion of the other party’s Evaluation Material which such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided that the party requested or required to make the disclosure exercises its reasonable best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the other party’s Evaluation Material, including, without limitation, by fully cooperating with the other party to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the other party’s Evaluation Material by any third party to which disclosure is made (at the other party’s expense). 6.

If either party decides that it does not wish to proceed with the Transaction with the other party, the party so deciding will promptly inform the other party of that decision by giving a written notice of termination. In that case, or at any time upon the request of the disclosing party for any reason, each receiving party will promptly deliver to the disclosing party any and all Evaluation Material (and all copies thereof and extracts therefrom, whether in hard-copy form or intangible media, such as electronic mail or computer files) furnished to the receiving party or its Representatives by or on behalf of the disclosing party. In the event of such a decision or request, all Evaluation Material prepared by the receiving party shall be destroyed and no copy thereof shall be retained, the receiving party shall provide written confirmation of such destruction.

Waiver.

Independent Development. The disclosing party acknowledges that the receiving party may currently be, or may in the future become, a competitor of the disclosing party or may be engaged or in discussions with competitors of the disclosing party.

Q: Agreement shall not grant Receiving Party any right to Confidential Information. Text: Exhibit (d)(2) February 8th, 2018 NICE Ltd. 13 Zarchin Street Raanana Israel Non-Disclosure Agreement Ladies and Gentlemen: In connection with your consideration of the possible business combination transaction (the “Transaction”) between you and Mattersight Corporation (the “Company”), the Company and you expect to make available to one another certain nonpublic information concerning their respective businesses, financial condition, operations, technologies, assets and liabilities. As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure by the disclosing party to include any legend or other marking of the Evaluation Material as confidential or proprietary shall not be dispositive as to whether such information is Evaluation Material, provided that such information should reasonably be deemed by its nature to be confidential. 2. Purpose of Disclosure of Evaluation Material. It is understood and agreed to by each party that any exchange of information under this Agreement shall be solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction and shall not affect, in any way, each party’s relative competitive position to the other party or to other entities. It is further agreed that the information to be disclosed to each other shall only be that information which is reasonably necessary to evaluate the Transaction and that information which is not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall not be disclosed or exchanged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any information that is inadvertently disclosed and not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall be immediately returned to the disclosing party, and shall otherwise be treated as Evaluation Material. 3. Use of Evaluation Material. Each party hereby agrees that it and its Representatives shall use the other’s Evaluation Material solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction. The receiving party shall hold the disclosing party’s Evaluation Material strictly confidential and shall not disclose such Evaluation Material in any manner to, or permit the use thereof by, any person or entity other than its Representatives that who in each case have a “need to know” (as defined below) or have access to such Evaluation Material in order to perform their responsibilities in connection with the Transaction and who are subject to obligations of confidentiality substantially similar to those imposed by this Agreement. A “need to know” means that the Representative(s) requires access to the Confidential Information in order to accomplish or effect the Transaction. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breaches of the terms of this Agreement by its Representatives and the receiving party agrees, at its sole expense, to take all reasonable measures (including, but not limited to, court proceedings) to restrain its Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized disclosure or use of the Evaluation Material. The receiving party shall make only the number of copies of Evaluation Material necessary to disseminate the information to the Representatives and ensure that any confidentiality or copyright notices set forth on the Evaluation Material are reproduced in full on such copies. In no event may a receiving party reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Evaluation Materials. The receiving party shall safeguard the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care to avoid unauthorized disclosure and use as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. The receiving party shall provide the disclosing party with full and prompt written notice of any breach in the security or confidentiality of the Evaluation Material while in the receiving party or its Representatives possession or control, including potential breach resulting from an unauthorized intrusion. 4. Non-Disclosure of Transaction. In addition, each party agrees that, without the prior written consent of the other party, such party and its Representatives will not disclose to any other person the existence of this Agreement, the fact that any Evaluation Material has been made available hereunder, that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect thereto, or that the Transaction is being contemplated; provided, that a party may make such disclosure if, in the written opinion of such party’s outside counsel, such disclosure is necessary to avoid committing a violation of law. In such event, the party required to make such disclosure shall comply with the provisions of paragraph 5 below. 5. Required Disclosure of Evaluation Material. In the event that a party or its Representatives are required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process or any rule, regulation or policy statement of any national securities exchange, market or automated quotation system on which any of the receiving party’s securities are listed or quoted) to disclose (i) any of the other party’s Evaluation Material or (ii) that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction, the party requested or required to make the disclosure shall provide the other party with prompt notice of any such request or requirement so that the other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by such other party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or any of its Representatives are nonetheless, in the opinion of counsel, legally compelled by any requirement described in the first sentence of this paragraph 5 to disclose the other party’s Evaluation Material to any third party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or its Representative may disclose to such third party only that portion of the other party’s Evaluation Material which such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided that the party requested or required to make the disclosure exercises its reasonable best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the other party’s Evaluation Material, including, without limitation, by fully cooperating with the other party to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the other party’s Evaluation Material by any third party to which disclosure is made (at the other party’s expense). 6.

Each party may, in its sole discretion, terminate discussions and negotiations with the other party at any time and for any reason. If either party decides that it does not wish to proceed with the Transaction with the other party, the party so deciding will promptly inform the other party of that decision by giving a written notice of termination. In that case, or at any time upon the request of the disclosing party for any reason, each receiving party will promptly deliver to the disclosing party any and all Evaluation Material (and all copies thereof and extracts therefrom, whether in hard-copy form or intangible media, such as electronic mail or computer files) furnished to the receiving party or its Representatives by or on behalf of the disclosing party. In the event of such a decision or request, all Evaluation Material prepared by the receiving party shall be destroyed and no copy thereof shall be retained, the receiving party shall provide written confirmation of such destruction. In no event shall either party be obligated to disclose or provide the Evaluation Material prepared by it or its Representatives to the other party. Notwithstanding the return or destruction of the Evaluation Material, each party and its Representatives will continue to be bound by its obligations of confidentiality, non-use and other obligations hereunder for a period of three (3) years from the date of this letter agreement. 9.

Each party agrees that neither party nor any of its Representatives shall have any liability to the other party or to any of its Representatives relating to or resulting from the use of or reliance upon such other party’s Evaluation Material or any errors therein or omissions therefrom. Only those representations or warranties which are made in a final definitive agreement regarding the Transaction, when, as and if executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be specified therein, will have any legal effect. 10. Waiver. It is understood and agreed that no failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. 11. Non-Solicitation.

Independent Development. The disclosing party acknowledges that the receiving party may currently be, or may in the future become, a competitor of the disclosing party or may be engaged or in discussions with competitors of the disclosing party.

Q: Confidential Information shall only include technical information. Text: Exhibit (d)(2) February 8th, 2018 NICE Ltd. 13 Zarchin Street Raanana Israel Non-Disclosure Agreement Ladies and Gentlemen: In connection with your consideration of the possible business combination transaction (the “Transaction”) between you and Mattersight Corporation (the “Company”), the Company and you expect to make available to one another certain nonpublic information concerning their respective businesses, financial condition, operations, technologies, assets and liabilities. As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure by the disclosing party to include any legend or other marking of the Evaluation Material as confidential or proprietary shall not be dispositive as to whether such information is Evaluation Material, provided that such information should reasonably be deemed by its nature to be confidential. 2. Purpose of Disclosure of Evaluation Material. It is understood and agreed to by each party that any exchange of information under this Agreement shall be solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction and shall not affect, in any way, each party’s relative competitive position to the other party or to other entities. It is further agreed that the information to be disclosed to each other shall only be that information which is reasonably necessary to evaluate the Transaction and that information which is not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall not be disclosed or exchanged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any information that is inadvertently disclosed and not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall be immediately returned to the disclosing party, and shall otherwise be treated as Evaluation Material. 3. Use of Evaluation Material. Each party hereby agrees that it and its Representatives shall use the other’s Evaluation Material solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction. The receiving party shall hold the disclosing party’s Evaluation Material strictly confidential and shall not disclose such Evaluation Material in any manner to, or permit the use thereof by, any person or entity other than its Representatives that who in each case have a “need to know” (as defined below) or have access to such Evaluation Material in order to perform their responsibilities in connection with the Transaction and who are subject to obligations of confidentiality substantially similar to those imposed by this Agreement. A “need to know” means that the Representative(s) requires access to the Confidential Information in order to accomplish or effect the Transaction. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breaches of the terms of this Agreement by its Representatives and the receiving party agrees, at its sole expense, to take all reasonable measures (including, but not limited to, court proceedings) to restrain its Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized disclosure or use of the Evaluation Material. The receiving party shall make only the number of copies of Evaluation Material necessary to disseminate the information to the Representatives and ensure that any confidentiality or copyright notices set forth on the Evaluation Material are reproduced in full on such copies. In no event may a receiving party reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Evaluation Materials. The receiving party shall safeguard the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care to avoid unauthorized disclosure and use as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.

Non-Disclosure of Transaction. In addition, each party agrees that, without the prior written consent of the other party, such party and its Representatives will not disclose to any other person the existence of this Agreement, the fact that any Evaluation Material has been made available hereunder, that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect thereto, or that the Transaction is being contemplated; provided, that a party may make such disclosure if, in the written opinion of such party’s outside counsel, such disclosure is necessary to avoid committing a violation of law. In such event, the party required to make such disclosure shall comply with the provisions of paragraph 5 below. 5. Required Disclosure of Evaluation Material. In the event that a party or its Representatives are required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process or any rule, regulation or policy statement of any national securities exchange, market or automated quotation system on which any of the receiving party’s securities are listed or quoted) to disclose (i) any of the other party’s Evaluation Material or (ii) that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction, the party requested or required to make the disclosure shall provide the other party with prompt notice of any such request or requirement so that the other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by such other party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or any of its Representatives are nonetheless, in the opinion of counsel, legally compelled by any requirement described in the first sentence of this paragraph 5 to disclose the other party’s Evaluation Material to any third party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or its Representative may disclose to such third party only that portion of the other party’s Evaluation Material which such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided that the party requested or required to make the disclosure exercises its reasonable best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the other party’s Evaluation Material, including, without limitation, by fully cooperating with the other party to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the other party’s Evaluation Material by any third party to which disclosure is made (at the other party’s expense). 6.

If either party decides that it does not wish to proceed with the Transaction with the other party, the party so deciding will promptly inform the other party of that decision by giving a written notice of termination. In that case, or at any time upon the request of the disclosing party for any reason, each receiving party will promptly deliver to the disclosing party any and all Evaluation Material (and all copies thereof and extracts therefrom, whether in hard-copy form or intangible media, such as electronic mail or computer files) furnished to the receiving party or its Representatives by or on behalf of the disclosing party. In the event of such a decision or request, all Evaluation Material prepared by the receiving party shall be destroyed and no copy thereof shall be retained, the receiving party shall provide written confirmation of such destruction.

Waiver.

Q: Some obligations of Agreement may survive termination of Agreement. Text: Exhibit (d)(2) February 8th, 2018 NICE Ltd. 13 Zarchin Street Raanana Israel Non-Disclosure Agreement Ladies and Gentlemen: In connection with your consideration of the possible business combination transaction (the “Transaction”) between you and Mattersight Corporation (the “Company”), the Company and you expect to make available to one another certain nonpublic information concerning their respective businesses, financial condition, operations, technologies, assets and liabilities. As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure by the disclosing party to include any legend or other marking of the Evaluation Material as confidential or proprietary shall not be dispositive as to whether such information is Evaluation Material, provided that such information should reasonably be deemed by its nature to be confidential. 2. Purpose of Disclosure of Evaluation Material. It is understood and agreed to by each party that any exchange of information under this Agreement shall be solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction and shall not affect, in any way, each party’s relative competitive position to the other party or to other entities. It is further agreed that the information to be disclosed to each other shall only be that information which is reasonably necessary to evaluate the Transaction and that information which is not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall not be disclosed or exchanged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any information that is inadvertently disclosed and not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall be immediately returned to the disclosing party, and shall otherwise be treated as Evaluation Material. 3. Use of Evaluation Material. Each party hereby agrees that it and its Representatives shall use the other’s Evaluation Material solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction. The receiving party shall hold the disclosing party’s Evaluation Material strictly confidential and shall not disclose such Evaluation Material in any manner to, or permit the use thereof by, any person or entity other than its Representatives that who in each case have a “need to know” (as defined below) or have access to such Evaluation Material in order to perform their responsibilities in connection with the Transaction and who are subject to obligations of confidentiality substantially similar to those imposed by this Agreement. A “need to know” means that the Representative(s) requires access to the Confidential Information in order to accomplish or effect the Transaction. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breaches of the terms of this Agreement by its Representatives and the receiving party agrees, at its sole expense, to take all reasonable measures (including, but not limited to, court proceedings) to restrain its Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized disclosure or use of the Evaluation Material. The receiving party shall make only the number of copies of Evaluation Material necessary to disseminate the information to the Representatives and ensure that any confidentiality or copyright notices set forth on the Evaluation Material are reproduced in full on such copies. In no event may a receiving party reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Evaluation Materials. The receiving party shall safeguard the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care to avoid unauthorized disclosure and use as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. The receiving party shall provide the disclosing party with full and prompt written notice of any breach in the security or confidentiality of the Evaluation Material while in the receiving party or its Representatives possession or control, including potential breach resulting from an unauthorized intrusion. 4. Non-Disclosure of Transaction. In addition, each party agrees that, without the prior written consent of the other party, such party and its Representatives will not disclose to any other person the existence of this Agreement, the fact that any Evaluation Material has been made available hereunder, that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect thereto, or that the Transaction is being contemplated; provided, that a party may make such disclosure if, in the written opinion of such party’s outside counsel, such disclosure is necessary to avoid committing a violation of law. In such event, the party required to make such disclosure shall comply with the provisions of paragraph 5 below. 5. Required Disclosure of Evaluation Material. In the event that a party or its Representatives are required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process or any rule, regulation or policy statement of any national securities exchange, market or automated quotation system on which any of the receiving party’s securities are listed or quoted) to disclose (i) any of the other party’s Evaluation Material or (ii) that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction, the party requested or required to make the disclosure shall provide the other party with prompt notice of any such request or requirement so that the other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by such other party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or any of its Representatives are nonetheless, in the opinion of counsel, legally compelled by any requirement described in the first sentence of this paragraph 5 to disclose the other party’s Evaluation Material to any third party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or its Representative may disclose to such third party only that portion of the other party’s Evaluation Material which such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided that the party requested or required to make the disclosure exercises its reasonable best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the other party’s Evaluation Material, including, without limitation, by fully cooperating with the other party to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the other party’s Evaluation Material by any third party to which disclosure is made (at the other party’s expense). 6.

Any Evaluation Material provided by a party that is entitled to protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege shall remain entitled to such protection under these privileges, under this Agreement and under the joint defense doctrine.

If either party decides that it does not wish to proceed with the Transaction with the other party, the party so deciding will promptly inform the other party of that decision by giving a written notice of termination. In that case, or at any time upon the request of the disclosing party for any reason, each receiving party will promptly deliver to the disclosing party any and all Evaluation Material (and all copies thereof and extracts therefrom, whether in hard-copy form or intangible media, such as electronic mail or computer files) furnished to the receiving party or its Representatives by or on behalf of the disclosing party. In the event of such a decision or request, all Evaluation Material prepared by the receiving party shall be destroyed and no copy thereof shall be retained, the receiving party shall provide written confirmation of such destruction.

As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure by the disclosing party to include any legend or other marking of the Evaluation Material as confidential or proprietary shall not be dispositive as to whether such information is Evaluation Material, provided that such information should reasonably be deemed by its nature to be confidential. 2. Purpose of Disclosure of Evaluation Material. It is understood and agreed to by each party that any exchange of information under this Agreement shall be solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction and shall not affect, in any way, each party’s relative competitive position to the other party or to other entities. It is further agreed that the information to be disclosed to each other shall only be that information which is reasonably necessary to evaluate the Transaction and that information which is not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall not be disclosed or exchanged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any information that is inadvertently disclosed and not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall be immediately returned to the disclosing party, and shall otherwise be treated as Evaluation Material. 3.

A “need to know” means that the Representative(s) requires access to the Confidential Information in order to accomplish or effect the Transaction. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breaches of the terms of this Agreement by its Representatives and the receiving party agrees, at its sole expense, to take all reasonable measures (including, but not limited to, court proceedings) to restrain its Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized disclosure or use of the Evaluation Material.

In no event may a receiving party reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Evaluation Materials. The receiving party shall safeguard the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care to avoid unauthorized disclosure and use as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.

Q: Receiving Party shall not solicit some of Disclosing Party's representatives. Text: Exhibit (d)(2) February 8th, 2018 NICE Ltd. 13 Zarchin Street Raanana Israel Non-Disclosure Agreement Ladies and Gentlemen: In connection with your consideration of the possible business combination transaction (the “Transaction”) between you and Mattersight Corporation (the “Company”), the Company and you expect to make available to one another certain nonpublic information concerning their respective businesses, financial condition, operations, technologies, assets and liabilities. As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure by the disclosing party to include any legend or other marking of the Evaluation Material as confidential or proprietary shall not be dispositive as to whether such information is Evaluation Material, provided that such information should reasonably be deemed by its nature to be confidential. 2. Purpose of Disclosure of Evaluation Material. It is understood and agreed to by each party that any exchange of information under this Agreement shall be solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction and shall not affect, in any way, each party’s relative competitive position to the other party or to other entities. It is further agreed that the information to be disclosed to each other shall only be that information which is reasonably necessary to evaluate the Transaction and that information which is not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall not be disclosed or exchanged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any information that is inadvertently disclosed and not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall be immediately returned to the disclosing party, and shall otherwise be treated as Evaluation Material. 3. Use of Evaluation Material. Each party hereby agrees that it and its Representatives shall use the other’s Evaluation Material solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction. The receiving party shall hold the disclosing party’s Evaluation Material strictly confidential and shall not disclose such Evaluation Material in any manner to, or permit the use thereof by, any person or entity other than its Representatives that who in each case have a “need to know” (as defined below) or have access to such Evaluation Material in order to perform their responsibilities in connection with the Transaction and who are subject to obligations of confidentiality substantially similar to those imposed by this Agreement. A “need to know” means that the Representative(s) requires access to the Confidential Information in order to accomplish or effect the Transaction. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breaches of the terms of this Agreement by its Representatives and the receiving party agrees, at its sole expense, to take all reasonable measures (including, but not limited to, court proceedings) to restrain its Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized disclosure or use of the Evaluation Material. The receiving party shall make only the number of copies of Evaluation Material necessary to disseminate the information to the Representatives and ensure that any confidentiality or copyright notices set forth on the Evaluation Material are reproduced in full on such copies. In no event may a receiving party reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Evaluation Materials. The receiving party shall safeguard the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care to avoid unauthorized disclosure and use as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. The receiving party shall provide the disclosing party with full and prompt written notice of any breach in the security or confidentiality of the Evaluation Material while in the receiving party or its Representatives possession or control, including potential breach resulting from an unauthorized intrusion. 4. Non-Disclosure of Transaction. In addition, each party agrees that, without the prior written consent of the other party, such party and its Representatives will not disclose to any other person the existence of this Agreement, the fact that any Evaluation Material has been made available hereunder, that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect thereto, or that the Transaction is being contemplated; provided, that a party may make such disclosure if, in the written opinion of such party’s outside counsel, such disclosure is necessary to avoid committing a violation of law. In such event, the party required to make such disclosure shall comply with the provisions of paragraph 5 below. 5. Required Disclosure of Evaluation Material. In the event that a party or its Representatives are required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process or any rule, regulation or policy statement of any national securities exchange, market or automated quotation system on which any of the receiving party’s securities are listed or quoted) to disclose (i) any of the other party’s Evaluation Material or (ii) that discussions are taking place concerning the Transaction, the party requested or required to make the disclosure shall provide the other party with prompt notice of any such request or requirement so that the other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by such other party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or any of its Representatives are nonetheless, in the opinion of counsel, legally compelled by any requirement described in the first sentence of this paragraph 5 to disclose the other party’s Evaluation Material to any third party, the party requested or required to make the disclosure or its Representative may disclose to such third party only that portion of the other party’s Evaluation Material which such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided that the party requested or required to make the disclosure exercises its reasonable best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the other party’s Evaluation Material, including, without limitation, by fully cooperating with the other party to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the other party’s Evaluation Material by any third party to which disclosure is made (at the other party’s expense). 6. Privileged Information.

Each party may, in its sole discretion, terminate discussions and negotiations with the other party at any time and for any reason. If either party decides that it does not wish to proceed with the Transaction with the other party, the party so deciding will promptly inform the other party of that decision by giving a written notice of termination. In that case, or at any time upon the request of the disclosing party for any reason, each receiving party will promptly deliver to the disclosing party any and all Evaluation Material (and all copies thereof and extracts therefrom, whether in hard-copy form or intangible media, such as electronic mail or computer files) furnished to the receiving party or its Representatives by or on behalf of the disclosing party.

As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records.

Purpose of Disclosure of Evaluation Material. It is understood and agreed to by each party that any exchange of information under this Agreement shall be solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction and shall not affect, in any way, each party’s relative competitive position to the other party or to other entities. It is further agreed that the information to be disclosed to each other shall only be that information which is reasonably necessary to evaluate the Transaction and that information which is not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall not be disclosed or exchanged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any information that is inadvertently disclosed and not reasonably necessary for such purposes shall be immediately returned to the disclosing party, and shall otherwise be treated as Evaluation Material. 3.

A “need to know” means that the Representative(s) requires access to the Confidential Information in order to accomplish or effect the Transaction. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breaches of the terms of this Agreement by its Representatives and the receiving party agrees, at its sole expense, to take all reasonable measures (including, but not limited to, court proceedings) to restrain its Representatives from prohibited or unauthorized disclosure or use of the Evaluation Material.

In no event may a receiving party reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Evaluation Materials. The receiving party shall safeguard the Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care to avoid unauthorized disclosure and use as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.

As a condition to such information being furnished to each party and its controlled subsidiaries, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) (collectively, “Representatives”), each party agrees to treat any nonpublic information concerning the other party (whether prepared by the disclosing party, its Representatives or otherwise and irrespective of the form of communication) that is furnished hereunder to a party or to its Representatives now or in the future during the term of this letter agreement by or on behalf of the disclosing party (herein collectively referred to as the “Evaluation Material”) in accordance with the provisions of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), and to take or abstain from taking certain other actions hereinafter set forth. 1. Evaluation Material. The term “Evaluation Material” shall be deemed to include all information, records, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, reports, projections, forecasts, interpretations or other documents prepared by each party or its Representatives that contain, reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, the information furnished to such party or its Representatives pursuant hereto, which is not available to the general public. The term “Evaluation Material” does not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the receiving party or its Representatives, (ii) was within the receiving party’s possession prior to its being furnished to the receiving party by or on behalf of the disclosing party, provided that the source of such information was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party or any of its Representatives, provided that such source was not known by the receiving party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or subject to any other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to) the disclosing party or any other party with respect to such information or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of Evaluation Material provided such independent development can reasonably be proven by contemporaneous written records.
