The Disciplinary Committee, chaired by Roger Morris, along with Rhian Williams and Ray Wilton decided that the act did not warrant a red card.
Having viewed the incident in close-up, the Disciplinary Committee concluded that the player's initial contact with his opponent had not in fact been with his head but with his arm.
The Disciplinary Committee imposed no sanction on the player, who is free to resume playing immediately.
Henderson will now be eligible to play in Ulster's final league game of the season along with their play off campaign.
