Industry Background

The design, distribution,
protection and consumption of all forms of digital content and software are experiencing an unprecedented amount of change. In the case of entertainment content, with the expansion of high-bandwidth internet infrastructure and the industry shift to
digital media, PC-based entertainment platforms, digital portable devices, Internet downloads and the proliferation of peer-to-peer file sharing networks, content and copyright owners are increasingly vulnerable to unauthorized use of their content.
With the increased sales of inexpensive, easy to use in-home copying devices, such as VCRs, CD and DVD recorders, and PC based hard drive recorders, consumers have the ability to make unauthorized copies of video, audio and software content.

Content owners lose billions of dollars every year to casual copying and professional or bootleg piracy and Internet/P2P piracy. The International
Intellectual Property Alliance estimated that copyright piracy, not including Internet piracy, around the world inflicts $23-$25 billion in annual losses to the U.S. copyright industries. As technological advances facilitate digital downloads and
digital copying, motion picture studios, music labels, cable television program distributors and software games publishers have become more concerned with protecting their intellectual property.

Many of the same challenges confront the software industry. Independent software vendors and systems vendors are similarly concerned about unlicensed or
illicit use of their application software, both in the enterprise environment (where license terms may be lost in the midst of corporate IT confusion or ignored) and in the consumer markets (where PC software may be copied and redistributed).
According to the Business Software Alliance (BSA) and International Data Corporation (IDC) report of May 2005, worldwide PC software piracy accounts for approximately $33 billion in lost sales annually. In addition, in the
software industry, publishers need simple, scalable solutions to account for the use of their products and also are seeking ways to flexibly price and package their products in order to reach a larger share of the available market. Furthermore, as
software complexity grows, publishers are seeking ways to simplify their customers software experience. Enterprise customers are particularly focused on reducing their total cost of ownership of software and reducing their support burden.
Tools that provide a simple installation, activation and maintenance experience are winning favor with these enterprise customers. The multi-billion dollar challenge for the software industry, and their end-customers, is to simultaneously optimize
accountability, manageability, stability and delivery in a constantly evolving business environment.

Macrovision Business and Solutions

We develop and market a broad array of digital lifecycle value management technologies for three distinct customer groups: Entertainment and Content
Producers and Distributors, Software Publishers, and EnterpriseEnd Users.

Entertainment and Content Producers and Distributors

Macrovision solutions enable the delivery and use of digital goods in the entertainment and content marketplaces. Our solutions provide
enhanced consumer uses, digital distribution and merchandising and flexible content security, authentication and digital rights management (DRM).

Video Technology

Packaged Media Solutions. Motion pictures typically generate
two-thirds of their revenue from the sales of packaged media, primarily DVDs. According to International Federation of Phonographic Industries (IFPI), as of the end of 2005, 94% of U.S. households had at least one DVD player and 90% also
have a VCR. Any household that owns a DVD-R, PVR, PC, media center or a VCR is capable of making unauthorized high quality digital and analog copies unless that content is properly copy protected against this variety of threats. As new distribution
models evolve, including video portability, simultaneous theatrical and DVD release dates, Internet and other electronic distribution and the developing PC-based home theater experience, solutions that protect the DVD from unauthorized copying are
critical to preserving the motion picture studio revenues.

Our business originated in analog video content security, or analog copy
protection (ACP), which has been used to protect over 4.7 billion videocassettes worldwide since 1985 and over 5.5 billion DVDs worldwide since 1997. Our ACP technologies allow consumers to view programming stored on prerecorded
videocassettes and DVDs or transmitted as digital pay-per-view (PPV) or video-on-demand (VOD) programs via cable or satellite, but deter unauthorized consumer copying of such programming on both VCRs and recordable DVD
devices. Most of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) studios use our video content security technology to protect some or all movie releases on videocassette or DVD. In addition, nearly every DVD player,

##### Index to Financial Statements

VCR, DVD recorder, DVD drive and PC manufactured contains software and/or hardware technology, licensed by Macrovision, to ensure that ACP-secured DVDs and
VHS tapes are properly recognized and thus secured. We believe that our technology is accepted as the de factoindustry standard for analog video copy protection.

In recent years, digital content protection has increased in importance. As of May 2005, 12% of all PCs in the world were equipped to make perfect, digital rips or copies of DVDs. Consumers can make a
perfect digital copy of a DVD in minutes by using inexpensive PC DVD burners coupled with copying software that is widely available in electronics stores and from Internet sites, with many of these software products being available free-of-charge.
This class of software technology, known as DeCSS rippers, breaks the CSS encryption code that is used on most movie DVDs, and often circumvents the Macrovision analog content security. Therefore, we believe such software packages violate the U.S.
Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA) and infringe our patents. Nevertheless many consumers acquire this type of software and add hacker software available on the Internet, and engage in unauthorized ripping and copying
activities. Our RipGuard DVD technology, which is applied to the DVD at the time of manufacture, is designed to prevent unauthorized ripping on PCs without requiring any modification to the PC. We introduced RipGuard DVD in 2005, and to date, over
30 million DVDs that used the comprehensive content security solution of RipGuard DVD and ACP were shipped. In addition, RipGuard DVD is THX Verified to ensure the highest quality audio and video fidelity and also is certified Spyware
Safe by PC Tools, a leading member of the Anti-Spyware Coalition.

PPV and VOD Solutions. Digital PPV/VOD services enable
consumers to purchase and view movies and other programming in their homes through cable or satellite systems, or Internet-based download services. As entertainment content producers consider the idea of simultaneous or more closely staged
theatrical, DVD and/or PPV/VOD release of content, studios have realized the importance of content security in digital PPV/VOD networks because high quality VHS and DVD copies can be made from the source analog video signal. Most digital PPV/VOD
system operators have implemented our content security capability in their digital set-top boxes at the request of the Hollywood studios.

To protect content in such circumstances, Macrovision introduced our ACP-VOD and ACP-WMDRM solutions, which are derived from the same ACP technology used in our packaged media solution. These products are designed to allow content owners to
copy protect their PPV/VOD movies, while at the same time allow consumers to store, move or share content as long as it is done within the parameters of the rules defined by copyright owners. To date, our content security technology has been
embedded in over 185 million digital set-top boxes and DVRs worldwide.

Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Solutions

According to a June 2005 JupiterResearch consumer survey, 16.29 million online users aged 18 and over (or 11% of all online users) reported using
file sharing applications to share music, movies or photos on a monthly or more frequent basis. Content owners believe they have been harmed by the free and unauthorized file sharing over these networks to such an extent that they have initiated
lawsuits against several of the file sharing networks and even the individual consumers themselves. Our RipGuard DVD and TotalPlay CD content security solutions are designed to inhibit unauthorized video and music content from being made available
over P2P networks. Our Hawkeye Peer-to-Peer Anti-Piracy service is a global network solution designed to deter the majority of users from obtaining any unauthorized copies of copyrighted content from P2P file sharing networks. Content owners are
able to designate which music tracks, music albums, movies, television episodes, games or software applications they want to protect, and our technology is activated as a service to find and protect those specific files on various file sharing
networks.

Music Technology

Packaged Media Solutions. The music industry continues to be at a digital crossroads. Approximately 33% of recordings sold worldwide are reportedly illegal copies, resulting in an estimated $4.6 billion of lost
industry

sales in 2003 alone, according to IFPIs Music Piracy Report 2005. Consequently, the music industry is pursuing multiple initiatives to
reverse the sales declines, including CD content security and digital rights management technologies.

Our TotalPlay CD product, introduced
in November 2005, allows consumers to put the CD into a PC and move and use their music the way they want while at the same time protecting music labels from the prospect of rampant copying. TotalPlay CD provides a simple and consistent way for
consumers to legitimately make copies, share their music with friends and create compilations. TotalPlay CD also enables music publishers to provide an enhanced consumer experience by including extra features such as lyrics, album art, unlockable
web content, videos, photos, web links, and other exclusives, all available from a simple user interface. TotalPlay CD and our packaged media solutions for the music industry have been used on over 600 million music CDs worldwide through 2005.
TotalPlay CD is certified as 100% Spyware Safe by PC Tools and as Designed for Windows XP ensuring a secure and stable consumer experience.

Network Solutions. In addition to our technologies to prevent the unauthorized copying of music CDs, we are actively involved in developing and marketing various technologies to meet the needs of emerging music delivery systems such
as downloading and streaming via the Internet. As music CD sales decline in various key music markets as a result of the high penetration of personal computer-based CD-burners and proliferation of peer-to-peer file sharing services, the music
industry is pursuing multiple initiatives to inhibit unauthorized downloading from peer-to-peer networks. We believe we are able to provide a comprehensive solution for music content publishers through the use of our TotalPlay CD solution, which
inhibits unauthorized music content from being made available over P2P networks, in conjunction with our Hawkeye Peer-to-Peer Anti-Piracy service, which deters users from obtaining unauthorized music content from P2P networks.

PC Games Technology

The games
industry is dealing with shrinking retail shelf space and the high risk of piracy, while at the same time struggling with much larger budgets for creating and promoting games. As a result, PC game developers are facing unprecedented revenue losses.
With the proliferation of inexpensive high capacity CD-ROM burners, and the increase in broadband Internet connections to the home and small office and the dramatic increase in P2P network usage, individual consumers now have ready means for
unauthorized copying and distribution of PC game content on a broad scale. Our SafeDisc Advanced and ActiveMARK technologies are designed to protect both CD/DVD-ROM and digital game content from unauthorized copying and provide game publishers with
the ability to effectively protect their content from unauthorized copying and downloads while also enabling an entirely new revenue channel with online digital distribution. Macrovision has a network of over 300 distribution partners and a catalog
of over 1200 games that it protects and promotes online.

At the same time, many of those same technologies are enabling a revolution in
the gaming marketdigital distribution. In July 2005, we acquired Trymedia Systems, a leading provider of secure digital distribution products and services for the video gaming industry, which operates the worlds largest distribution
network for downloadable PC games.

Software Publishers

Software and hardware manufacturers have access to a variety of tools with which to design and develop software. However, when such software needs to be
delivered to customers, manufacturers have primarily relied on homemade solutions to handle electronic downloading, advanced installation, embedded licensing enforcement, automatic updates, and back-office tracking of entitlements. This not only
places restrictions on the business models with which manufacturers can engage their customers, but also can lead to general business problems such as confusion as to which updates are needed and difficulty with installations.

Our FLEXnet Publisher product offers an extensive set of digital lifecycle value management solutions for
manufacturers and publishers. By incorporating our technologies into their products, manufacturers are able to improve their ability to provide a standard and seamless installation and activation experience, simplify product-marketing strategies,
reduce unpaid usage and lower costs associated with product development, distribution, and delivery. We also offer manufacturers back-office products to help them better manage the entitlements they have granted their customers, as well as a hosted
update service that enables manufacturers to keep their deployed products up to date and automatical deliver updates over the Internet.

Enterprise End-Users

Enterprise IT teams are looking for ways to keep their software end-users as productive as possible
while minimizing their support costs. Organizations want to ensure they purchase enough licenses to fulfill the needs of their end-users but not waste money by continuing to license unnecessary assets. Such organizations also desire automated
solutions that help them stay within the bounds of their purchased licenses, allow them to flexibly expand those bounds as needed, and maximize the reliability and availability of those licenses. Larger organizations also face significant challenges
in rolling out software products to their thousands of employees and need to ensure that software is deployed easily without productivity loss to the enterprise.

Complementing our FLEXnet Publisher offerings for manufacturers, we offer FLEXnet Manager for enterprise customers, to help such customers better manage their FLEXenabled products. FLEXnet Manager captures and
analyzes software usage data to help enterprises determine where to allocate their software purchases and related costs and helps administer software access rights (electronic licenses) over global networks. We also offer the AdminStudio family of
products to help enterprise system administrators prepare various software applications and upgrades for deployment across the enterprise (via repackaging and patch impact management).

Technology Licensing, Sales and Marketing

Technology Licensing. Content owners and software
vendors utilize our solutions to secure their content or software and to ensure that their end-user customers pay them for the use of such content or software. We generate recurring revenues from a variety of sources by licensing our portfolio of

Sales and Marketing. We market our digital content management and software management solutions directly to content
owners and software vendors in the video, music, games and software markets. We also license our software asset management solutions directly to end-user enterprise customers. We supplement our direct sales efforts with reseller programs and service
partnerships among VHS, DVD, and CD duplicator, replicator and authoring organizations, and third party professional services, value added reseller, and systems integrator organizations in our enterprise software business. We also utilize a variety
of marketing initiatives, including trade show participation, trade advertisements, industry education and newsletters. As part of our FLEXnet platform, we established alliances with several partner companies to extend the FLEXnet ecosystem to
include other third-party services and solutions. We have a worldwide network of resellers who help us sell our InstallShield products. The rapid expansion of broadband Internet connections for consumers and small businesses and the continued
tightening of enterprise IT budgets may result in the adoption of new licensing and distribution models for our solutions. We believe this has created a large market opportunity for our digital lifecycle value management solutions.

Our primary locations for product development, business strategy, and operations are in our Santa Clara (California), Schaumburg (Illinois), San
Francisco (California) and Maidenhead (United Kingdom) offices. We have sales and support operations through our U.S. sales force, and through our offices in the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Germany, France, Israel, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and
Korea.

Expand and Protect Patent Position. We have built, and continue to add to, a large patent
portfolio that helps differentiate our products. We believe that our future success will depend on our ability to continue to introduce proprietary solutions for rights management and content security solutions that can be supplemented by enabling
features that will incent consumers and users to pay for legitimate video, audio and software products, rather than trying to get them for free in an unauthorized fashion. We have patented many of these proprietary solutions, and our patents
underpin our strong competitive position and financial model. We also have acquired key software rights management and content security patents. We intend to continue to obtain patents and to protect and defend our patented technologies
aggressively, including developing and obtaining patents covering a number of processes and devices that unauthorized parties could use to circumvent our DRM and content security solutions.

Continue To Make Strategic Acquisitions. We intend to continue to expand our technology portfolio and extend our businesses by pursuing licensing
arrangements, joint ventures and strategic acquisitions of companies whose technologies or proprietary rights complement our technologies.

We have made a number of acquisitions since 1999. We acquired C-Dilla, Ltd. of the UK in June 1999 in order to have solutions for application software content security, license management and DRM business; in August 2000, we acquired
Globetrotter Software, Inc., which facilitated our entry into electronic license management solutions for independent software vendors and software asset management solutions for enterprise end-users; in October 2000, we acquired Productivity
through Software plc (PtS) of the UK, which was a distributor of our enterprise software solutions; in July 2001, we acquired the intellectual property and technology assets of AudioSoft, Inc., and in September 2001, we acquired the
intellectual property and technology assets of MediaDNA, Inc., both of which provided us with significant intellectual property in the DRM business; in November 2002, we acquired the assets of Midbar Tech (1998) Ltd., which provided us with
significant intellectual property and key personnel skilled in music copy protection and controlled disc burning applications; in May 2003, we acquired certain assets of TTR Technologies, Inc. to further enhance our intellectual property relating to
music content security; in August 2003, we acquired intellectual property and other assets from NetPD, including patents and software that can be used to track and manage content in the peer-to-peer file sharing space; in July 2004 and in June 2005,
we acquired the intellectual property and assets of InstallShield Software Corporation and Zero G Software, Inc., respectively, both of which provided us with the ability to expand our product portfolio in the software management category and reach
a larger software developer customer base. In July 2005, we acquired Trymedia Systems, Inc., which allowed us to move into the digital distribution and ecommerce enablement for the PC games market.

Technology

Entertainment Producers and
Distributors

Video Technology

Our technology was originally designed to prevent unauthorized copying of VHS cassettes. We extended our solution to inhibit unauthorized PPV/VOD copying and DVD-to-VHS copying. Hardware manufacturers have designed
their DVD-R devices to recognize our content security signal to inhibit DVD-to-DVD copying as well. The majority of the recently introduced PVRs, DVD/VCR combo units include recording devices that are designed to sense widely used content security
solutions, and, as a result, they recognize Macrovisions proprietary analog content security process and disable digital recording onto DVD discs.

DVD and Digital PPV/VOD Content Security. Videocassettes and DVDs are encoded with our video content security signal as they are manufactured. The result is that videocassettes and DVDs that are encoded with
our content security signal will play normally on an analog TV set, but will cause generally unwatchable copies to be made on the vast majority of VCRs, and will shut down the analog-to-digital recording circuit of DVD recording devices, which
include DVD-R devices and personal computers. The DVD and digital PPV/VOD versions of our video content security solutions employ proprietary electronic pulses placed in analog video streams and a second

patented content security process which affects the color playback circuit of a VCR causing colored horizontal stripes to appear in the picture of an
unauthorized copy. The combination of the two processes provides a higher level of effectiveness than that provided by either process alone. In addition, the second patented content security process is more effective against circumvention by most
black box circumvention devices that were sold in the past. Copy protection is implemented in DVD and digital PPV/VOD applications by embedding a copy protection signal generator integrated circuit within the DVD player or digital
set-top box. The content security circuits remain dormant until activated by data commands, which are either embedded in the DVD disc or sent along with the PPV movie transmission to the subscribers set-top box or hard drive recorder. The
integrated circuit is activated by copy protection control codes, which are embedded into the DVD media or the PPV transmission. Once the integrated circuit is activated, it adds the content security signal to the analog output of the DVD player or
digital set-top box. As with videocassette content security, consumers are able to see a clear picture on their television sets, but generally cannot make a usable videocassette or DVD-R copy.

ACP-VOD Content Management.Our ACP-VOD technology can be used by content owners to control how long their PPV/VOD content may be stored on
compliant digital set top box PVR units and home media center PC hard drives.

RipGuard DVD.RipGuard DVD is the digital content
security counterpart of our ACP technology. It is designed to inhibit software ripper programs that are used on consumer PCs to make unauthorized copies of DVDs. It can be used in conjunction with ACP to give a combination analog and digital content
security solution for optical discs. Ripguard DVD is a unilateral content security solution, in that it is applied to the DVD disc at the time of manufacture, and is designed to have no impact on the quality of the displayed video and requires no
hardware or special software on the PC or DVD player device.

Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Solutions.Our Hawkeye technology can be
used to protect copyrighted content by deterring the unauthorized file sharing of all types of digital content, including video, music and games over P2P networks.

Music Technology

In the music CD market, TotalPlay CD and packaged media solutions for the
music industry were developed to provide an enhanced end user CD experience while also protecting against rampant copying. Each of the several TotalPlay and music content security functions (e.g., coding, hiding and timing) is covered by
pending patent applications.

TotalPlay CD uses a combination of passive content security that inhibits the consumer from
copying music to a personal computer for subsequent redistribution on Internet based file sharing services. In addition, we utilize a proprietary active copy protection solution on the same CD that enables music files to be copied to a
personal computer hard disk and be managed/played via Windows Media Player (or other DRM system) but controls (at the copyright owners option) subsequent transfer to portable devices, CD-Rs, and the Internet, and subsequent burning of copied
CDs. Our TotalPlay CD product requires the acceptance of an end-user license agreement prior to any automatic transfer of software code from the CD to the PC hard drive, ensuring both a consumer and rights owner friendly solution that can be used
with any DRM. It is certified by third party testers to be spyware-free and to not utilize virus-prone rootkit technologies.

PC
Games Technology

Our SafeDisc Advanced technology is licensed directly to software publishers, and to mastering and replication
facilities that embed our patented digital signature during the CD manufacturing process. It is designed to prevent unauthorized copying by CD recorders or transfer from a CD/DVD-ROM to a hard disc drive, in a CD/DVD-ROM. SafeDisc is a
unilateral content security solution, which means that all of the proprietary content security technology resides on the CD/DVD-ROM and nothing has to be added to or changed

in the PC or CD/DVD-ROM hardware. Each CD/DVD-ROM published with the patented SafeDisc Advanced technology is premastered with encrypted executable files and
contains authenticating instructions and a unique SafeDisc digital signature. Because SafeDisc Advanced is designed to operate while the disc is in the CD/DVD-ROM drive, it is ideally suited to PC games and education software and is not applicable
for console games like Sony Playstation or Microsoft Xbox. When a user inserts an original SafeDisc-protected disc in a CD/DVD-ROM drive, the authentication software reads the digital signature, allowing the program to be decrypted and run normally.
The digital signature and authentication process is transparent to the user. If a consumer or pirate uses a CD recording device or professional mastering equipment to duplicate a CD/DVD-ROM and make an unauthorized copy, SafeDisc is designed to
inhibit the transfer of the digital signature to the copy. If someone attempts to use such an unauthorized copy, the digital signature cannot be found, decryption will not take place and the copy will not run.

SafeDisc also contains anti-hacking technology which is designed to prevent the compromise of its security features. Because of our widespread
penetration in the PC games market, hackers have targeted and cracked several versions of SafeDisc. For us to continue to be successful in this market, we must continually stay a step ahead of the hacker community.

Software Publishers

FLEXnet
Publisher enables software publishers and hardware manufacturers to price, package, and protect their software. Using FLEXnet Publisher, customers can electronically generate, track, enforce, and update their software licenses and guard against
unauthorized use by implementing product activation or content security. FLEXnet Publisher also enables software publishers to generate additional revenue by offering their customers a broad choice of pricing and licensing models, including
subscription- and usage-based models.

Software and hardware vendors integrate FLEXnet Publisher solutions into their products to
monitor or control a customers compliance with a products license terms. Terms of the license are typically stored in an authenticated license file that resides either on the local computers hard disk drive or on a
network-connected central server. Compliance with those license rights is automatically monitored. The software vendor may choose to block users from running a product if doing so violates or exceeds the license rights, or simply provide
notification to the user or system administrator when product use has exceeded the customers license rights. This allows end user customers to buy software licenses using much more flexible license terms than traditional
one-computer-one-license or site license approaches. These terms may include floating licenses (where a specific number of licenses are shared over a network), product suites (where several product licenses are combined to be licensed as a single
product) and demo licenses (where a prospective customer has full functional use of a product, but the right to use expires on a specific date or after a specific number of uses). With FLEXnet Publisher, software vendors can enable users to
activate previously unlicensed copies of the software over the Internet, or by typing in a series of digits read over the phone. Electronic licensing can also record the use of licensed software into a transaction log, which is
authenticated and encrypted so software vendors and customers can use this information as a basis for pay-per-use or other usage-based pricing or licensing.

Software and hardware vendors apply our InstallShield technology to their finished products, in effect wrapping the application for installation. Our Update Service technology is implemented as a program
that resides on the end-users machine. It periodically checks the Internet for updates and downloads them as configured. End-users and/or their IT department system administration group can control how frequently (if at all) they want the
service to check for updates, and what to do with those updates when available.

Enterprise End-Users

Macrovisions asset management software enables larger organizations to more effectively manage their licensed software, by providing interfaces to
control licensed servers and set alerts to important licensing events. Moreover, this software can read and interpret the usage transaction logs described in the preceding section,

enabling customers to better manage their FLEXenabled software assets and to allocate software-related costs to different departments or projects within the
company. Our AdminStudio technology helps enterprise system administrators prepare various software applications and upgrades for deployment across the enterprise.

Research and Development

Our internal research and development efforts are focused on developing enhancements to existing
products, new applications for our current technologies and new technologies related to our various digital product value management offerings. Our core competencies are in electronic license management and license delivery software, installer
software, anti-hacking software, digital and analog video and audio engineering, content security engineering and optical media formats. We have acquired other companies and technologies to supplement our research and development expenditures. In
2005, 2004 and 2003, our expenses for research and development were $34.4 million, $28.7 million and $17.8 million, respectively.

Intellectual Property
Rights

Patents Issued & Pending. As of February 1, 2006, we hold 109 U.S. patents and have 121 U.S. patent
applications pending. Of the issued patents, 41 relate to our content security solutions, 26 relate to video scrambling, 14 relate to audio scrambling, nine relate to electronic license management and five relate to DRM technology (namely
content usage control, tracking, and e-transactions). Of the pending patent applications, 57 relate to our content security solutions, eight relate to video scrambling, 15 relate to audio scrambling, 22 relate to electronic license management
and 11 relate to DRM technology. The last of our issued U.S. patents expires in 2022. The last of our core group of analog content security patents expires in the year 2021. We also have 831 foreign patents issued and 384 foreign
patent applications pending in 42 countries. Of the issued foreign patents, 523 relate to our content security solutions, 117 relate to video scrambling, 48 relate to audio scrambling, and 26 relate to electronic license management and DRM.

Circumvention Technology Patents. Included in the patents related to our content security solutions are 14 U.S. and 117 foreign
patents covering a number of processes and devices that unauthorized parties could use to circumvent our video content security solutions. We also have eight U.S. and 19 foreign circumvention technology patents pending. We have
historically used these patents to limit the proliferation of devices intended to circumvent our video content security solutions. We have initiated a number of patent infringement lawsuits against manufacturers and distributors of such
devices. See Legal Proceedings.

Competition

Entertainment Producers and Distributors

Video Technology

Our video content security solutions are proprietary and have broad U.S. and international patent coverage. We believe that there are currently no
significant analog video content security competitors. We have the only analog content security solution that has been widely deployed on commercial products that significantly distorts or inhibits copying by VHS VCRs, DVD recorders and hard drive
recorders. Currently, our video content security technology is embedded in nearly 100% of all DVD players and most digital set-top boxes worldwide. While it is possible that a competitive video content security technology could be developed and
deployed, we believe it would take years for the competitive technology to be tested and accepted by hardware manufacturers and ultimately to begin to be embedded into the consumer electronic devices. By the time this would happen, it is unlikely
any other analog content security technology would displace our content security infrastructure and our extensive video content security ecosystem.

Our technology is designed to inhibit or prevent unauthorized consumer copying; it is not designed to prevent professional piracy. We believe that our customers are very concerned with professional piracy of their



12

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

video, audio and software products. We believe that our customers assessment of the relative threats of professional versus consumer piracy may present
a certain level of competition to our video content security business, to the extent that some content owners may decide to devote more of their resources to fighting professional video piracy instead of using our copy protection to deter
unauthorized consumer copying.

With the increase in online movie and music distribution over the Internet, and with the continuing advance
of digital content and high definition formats, our analog video content security solutions that protect standard definition content on optical media and digital PPV/VOD signals may be viewed by our customers as being less important than the other
digital and network content protection solutions. As a result, other Internet-based digital content security or DRM technologies may present significant competition to our video content security business, such as DRM offerings by Intertrust,
Microsoft, Apple, RealNetworks, Contentguard, Philips, IBM and Sony. In addition, Sonys ARccOS product may present competition to our RipGuard DVD business. Competitors may also bundle their products with their own replication services, and by
doing so, those competitors may be able to offer lower prices for the combined offering and therefore studios may switch to such replication facilities.

Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Content Management Technology.In 2005, several of our competitors in this space either left the market or were acquired by other companies. We believe there are two primary
competitors left in the P2P file sharing content management market: ARTISTdirects MediaDefender and SafeNets MediaSentry. While these competitors were the first in this market and are very competitive in terms of pricing, we believe that
our Hawkeye technology has the advantage of being able to more efficiently scale the solution to accommodate growing numbers of simultaneous titles/tracks that are content protected and has been proven to be more effective at deterring more
downloads than the competition.

Music Technology

We believe that there are a limited number of direct competitors in the audio copy protection and rights management market, including SunnComm, Sony,
First4Internet and Settec, with Sony having substantially greater financial and other resources than we have. Even though the majority of music CDs produced do not include any content security technology from any supplier, to date, we believe we
have a significant market share of the CDs produced worldwide to which audio CD content security has been applied.

In January 2003,
Microsoft announced the release of its Windows Media® Data Session Toolkit (WMDST) with a DRM solution that can to be deployed independently of our solutions. The announcement included SunnComm as the first company to integrate a third party music CD content
security technology with Microsofts WMDST. We believe that SunnComm uses technology that is competitive with our TotalPlay CD technologies. It is possible that Microsoft may develop or acquire content protection and rights management solutions
that compete with our offerings. We have a non-exclusive agreement with Microsoft to allow their Windows Media Player and WMDST to interoperate with our TotalPlay CD solution.

PC Games Technology

We
believe that there are a limited number of competitors in our SafeDisc Advanced consumer software content protection market, including Sony SecuROM (developed and marketed by Sonys DADC optical disk manufacturing subsidiary), StarForce
Technologies, Settec and Smarte Solutions.

We also believe that there are a small number of competitors to ActiveMARK for the protection
and digital distribution of games online, including Boonty, Oberon and Real Networks RealArcade.

Software Publishers

Our primary competition in the electronic license management market comes from customers and prospects that develop their own homemade
solutions. We have other more traditional competitors in various subcomponents of our offerings, including SafeNet (who acquired Rainbow Technologies, and has a license



13

##### Index to Financial Statements

management offering) and Altiris (who acquired Wise and has an installer offering). There are other much smaller competitors as well, including companies
such as XtreamLok, Softwrap and Reprise Software. Operating system developers such as Microsoft, IBM and Sun already integrate limited license management and installation functionality into their products, and they could expand this functionality,
which could pose an increased competitive threat. Similarly, microprocessor suppliers may choose to integrate rights management solutions into their products, and software resellers could also begin to develop their own electronic license management
solutions.

Enterprise End-Users

Macrovision provides software asset management solutions to help end users monitor, manage, and track FLEXenabled and other software applications. Because we encrypt the FLEXnet usage log files, we are the only ones
authorized to read and interpret the FLEXnet usage log files for purposes of software asset management. We believe that there are currently no significant competitors in this particular software asset management area. In the larger market of
software asset management in general, products such as CA Unicenter and IBM Tivoli offer related and sometimes overlapping functionality.

AdminStudio, one of our InstallShield heritage products, enables enterprise system administrators to prepare various software applications and upgrades for deployment across the enterprise (via repackaging and patch impact management). It
is used as a front-end preparation tool to assess whether there are any software application conflicts with other installed software prior to deploying to all the end user PCs. We believe our primary competitor is Altiris (for our AdminStudio and
Windows installer business). Altiris acquired Wises PackageStudio product and we believe that PackageStudio currently outsells AdminStudio, in part due to historical distribution arrangements established before the Altiris acquisition.

Solution Architect enables the development and deployment of distributed applications. It facilitates the assembly of such applications
during development, easing the development process. It also simplifies the eventual deployment of these distributed applications in an enterprise environment.

Operations and Technical Support

We have technical support and certification operations to support our DVD manufacturer
licensees, set-top box licensees, authorized semiconductor manufacturers, and our other hardware licensees. We provide technical support and professional services to our independent software vendor customers and enterprise end user organizations
during pre-sale, implementation and maintenance phases of our contracts.

We provide a variety of technical support to our customers,
including:



| |  |  | We support our licensed duplicators and replicators with hardware and software installation assistance and quality assurance. In addition, we support licensed duplicator/replicator
sales personnel by providing sales training and marketing literature, and by participating in trade shows;

Our strategy is to license our technologies to third parties that manufacture products or software incorporating our technologies. For our InstallShield
products which are mostly distributed on CD-ROMs as boxed software, we contract with outside replicators to produce, package, and fulfill orders. Our manufacturing operations are limited to low volume video and audio content security processors used
by third party replicators that require in-house system integration and quality control efforts.

Legislative and Regulatory Actions

A number of government and legislative initiatives have been enacted in recent years to encourage development and implementation of technologies that
protect the rights and intellectual property of the content owners.

In the United States, Congress enacted the Digital Millennium
Copyright Act (DMCA) in October 1998. This law required all VCRs to comply with analog copy protection technologies that are in widespread use, such as those covered in our patents, beginning in May 2000. The DMCA includes a clause that
outlaws all circumvention devices and technologies that could be used to defeat widely used copy protection technologies. Based on our tests of new DVD recorder devices, we believe that manufacturers have designed them so they will not record analog
input that is Macrovision copy-protected. Hence, our technology prevents copying on both VCRs and DVD-R devices. We also believe that software ripper products, when they include circumvention of copy protection or CSS encryption, are
illegal under the law. In addition, we believe that software ripper companies who update their ripper products in order to circumvent RipGuard may be in violation of the anti-circumvention provisions of the DMCA. The U.S. law is based on a set of
guidelines for amending basic copyright laws to deal with the protection of digital media. The guidelines were adopted in 1996 by the World Intellectual Property Organization, an agency of the United Nations.

Several countries in Europe have adopted a similar EU-wide copyright directive, which includes a provision aimed at controlling hardware and software
circumvention devices and technologies. Individual countries legislatures are currently discussing these new copyright initiatives. The implementation of the Copyright Directive throughout Europe is continuing, with more countries enacting
legislation. To date, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Italy and UK have implemented the Copyright Directive. The Directive brings into effect prohibitions on the manufacture, import, distribution, sale and marketing of circumvention devices and
services. Macrovision has already taken action under the newly enacted German and UK Copyright Acts and obtained injunctions against a number of retailers to stop sales of devices that circumvent Macrovisions technology.

In Japan, a revision to the Japanese copyright law went into effect in October 1999 prohibiting the sale, manufacture, and import of circumvention
devices. In addition, an industry directive that became effective in 1997 requires all digital recording devices to be responsive to analog copy protection technologies that utilize automatic gain control techniques, such as those covered by our
patents.

Strategic Investments

We have made strategic investments in companies with complementary technologies and markets where we felt we could broaden our market reach or technology portfolio. The adjusted cost of our strategic investments as of
December 31, 2005 was $11.9 million and consisted of investments in the following company:

Digimarc Corporation (Nasdaq: DMRC). In
December 1997, we made our initial investment and signed a joint development agreement with Digimarc Corporation, a provider of patented digital watermarking technologies that allow digital code to be embedded in traditional and digital content,
including movies, photographic images and documents such as financial instruments, passports and event tickets. We made two subsequent investments in June 1999 and October 2000, for a total of $25.3 million. Digimarc completed an initial public
offering in December 1999. As of December 31, 2005, we owned approximately 9.7% of Digimarc, which translated to a valuation of $11.9 million. During 2005 and 2004, we determined that the decline in value of Digimarc stock was other-than-temporary
and took a charge to earnings of $5.8 million and $5.3 million, respectively, as a result. There were no impairment charges relating to Digimarc in 2003.

In addition to the above investment, we have made and hold strategic investments in other companies that have been written down and have no recorded value as of December 31, 2005. During 2004, we recorded an
other-than-temporary charge to earnings of $180,000 related to our investment in iVast, a privately held company.

Our strategic
investments represented 2.4% and 4.1% of our total assets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. In total, we wrote off $5.8 million, $5.5 million and $4.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003,
respectively, related to impairments that were other-than-temporary. In the future, we may continue to evaluate and make such minority investments for strategic purposes.

Employees

As of December 31, 2005, we had 692 full-time employees. Of these employees, 229 were
based outside of the United States. We expect to hire additional employees in 2006, particularly in engineering, marketing, sales and support. None of our employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement or is represented by a labor union.
We have not experienced any organized work stoppages. We believe that our future success will depend in part upon the continued service of our key employees and on our continued ability to hire and retain qualified personnel. We may not be able to
retain our key employees and may not be successful in attracting and retaining sufficient numbers of qualified personnel to conduct our business in the future.

|ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS
|-------- | ------------

In addition to the other
information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, you should consider carefully the following risks. If any of these risks occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be adversely affected.

Company Risks

The success of our business depends
on the continued use by major movie studios of our video content protection technology.

If major motion picture studios were to
determine that the benefits of our technology do not justify the cost of licensing the technology, then demand for our technology would decline. Historically, we derive a significant percentage of our net revenues and operating income from fees for
the application of our patented video content protection technology to various video formats: prerecorded videocassettes, DVDs and digital PPV and VOD programs.

Any future growth in revenues from these fees will depend on (a) growth in the various media formats, (b) increased use of our video content protection technology on a larger number of videocassettes, DVDs, digital
PPV/VOD programs or PCs, or (c) increases in usage fees or royalties. To increase or maintain our market penetration, we must continue to persuade content owners that the cost of licensing the technology is outweighed by the increase in revenues
that content owners and retailers gain as a result of using content protection, such as revenues from additional sales of the copy protected material or subsequent revenues from other distribution channels.

Any decline in demand for our video content protection technology, including a change of video content protection policy by the major motion picture
studios, or a decline in sales of prerecorded videocassettes and DVDs that are encoded with our video content protection technology, or additional declines in our average unit royalties, would have a material adverse effect on our business. If
several of the motion picture studios withdraw their support for our content protection technologies or otherwise determine not to copy protect a significant portion of prerecorded videocassettes, DVD or digital PPV/VOD programs, our business would
be harmed.

Our operating results may fluctuate, which may adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Our quarterly and annual revenues, expenses and operating results could vary significantly in the future and period-to-period comparisons should not be
relied upon as indications of future performance. Due to limited visibility in predicting software licensing revenues and, particularly, revenues that are generated from perpetual licenses (under which license fee revenue is recognized upfront on a
one-time basis), we may experience volatility in revenues which may cause us to not be able to sustain our level of net revenues, or our rate of revenue growth, on a quarterly or annual basis. In addition, we may be required to delay or extend
recognition of revenue on more complex licensing arrangements as required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Fluctuations in our operating results may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Other factors that could affect our operating results include:



| |  |  | The timing and number of releases of popular movies on videocassettes, DVDs or by digital PPV/VOD transmission;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The ability of the MPAA studios utilizing our content protection technology to produce one or more blockbuster titles on an annual basis;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The acceptance of our content protection technologies by major motion picture studios and software companies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

value management via the Internet.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If our entertainment technologies customers decide to focus on other methods to inhibit piracy, the
demand for our products may decrease and our business would be harmed.

We have been successful historically in licensing our content
protection technologies to control unauthorized casual consumer copying. Other content piracy sources include camcorders in movie theaters, peer-to-peer file sharing services and PC-based DVD copying software. To the extent that our customers spend
money to prevent or litigate or support legislative initiatives against these other piracy sources, they may reduce spending on our technology. Additionally, if our customers are unable to prevent their content from becoming available through these
other piracy sources, they may consider our technology to be less valuable. In either event, our business would be harmed.

As our entertainment
technologies customers try to minimize costs, they may decrease their content protection usage or negotiate decreases in their usage fees, which may result in a substantial decline in our entertainment related revenues.

The retail prices of DVDs are falling. As retail prices drop, consumers trend toward purchases rather than rental of DVDs, therefore studios face
substantial increases in marketing costs which creates increased pressure to trim manufacturing expenses. This includes cutting back in their content protection usage, as well as negotiated reductions in their usage fees. Recently, diminishing
margins that studios have been experiencing have contributed to a reduction in the prices we can charge them to include our video content protection technology in their products. As such, we have experienced a decline in our entertainment
technologies revenues in the past year and we have seen our usage fees on a per unit basis decline over time. Even though we have contracts with minimum annual volume commitments, it is possible for some studios to copy protect a smaller
percentage of their titles and still achieve their minimum volume commitments. In addition, some studios choose to copy protect selected titles, or choose to not use any copy protection, and their actions may influence other studios to do the same,
which could harm our business.

We experience seasonality in our operating results, which may affect the price of our common stock.

Because of the nature of the products that we offer, we have experienced significant seasonality in our business, and our business is likely to be
affected by seasonality in the future. We have typically experienced our highest revenues in the fourth quarter of each calendar year followed by lower revenues and operating income in subsequent quarters of the next year. We believe that this trend
has been principally due to the tendency of our customers to release their more popular movies, games and music during the year-end holiday shopping season as well as the pronounced fourth quarter seasonality in the software business.

We depend on a small number of key customers for a high percentage of our entertainment-related revenues and the loss of a significant customer could result in a
substantial decline in our revenues and profits.

Our customer base and our entertainment related revenues are highly concentrated among
a limited number of customers, primarily due to the fact that the MPAA studios dominate the motion picture industry and the loss of any one customer would have a significant adverse impact on our entertainment related business. Historically, we have
derived the majority of our entertainment related revenues from a relatively small number of customers. No customer accounted for more than 10% of our net revenues in 2005 or 2004, and one customer accounted for 10.2% of our net revenues in 2003.

We expect that revenues from the MPAA studios will continue to account for a substantial portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable
future. We have multi-year agreements with some of the major home video companies for copy protection of all or a substantial part of their videocassettes and/or DVDs in the U.S. These agreements expire at various times starting in late 2006, and
may or may not be renewed, or, if renewed, may be at substantially reduced per unit prices and on other terms less favorable to us than the existing agreements. Changes in management, ownership or control of the MPAA studios could affect the renewal
of their contracts with us. The failure of any one of these customers to renew its contract or to enter into a new contract with us on terms that are favorable to us would likely result in a substantial decline in our entertainment related revenues
and operating income, and our business would be harmed.

We depend on signing and in some cases completing high-value license agreements during the
reporting period from major software customers for our FLEXnet product and the inability to sign or complete these agreements could result in a decline or deferral of our revenues and profits.

Currently, a material portion of our FLEXnet revenues are generated from perpetual licenses, under which license fee revenue is generally recognized up
front on a one-time basis, combined with an annual maintenance fee that is ratably recognized over the 12-month period. Failure to close a small number of high-value perpetual licenses during any period could result in a decline in our revenues and
profits. We currently offer our customers the choice between a perpetual license and an annual (or time-based subscription) license, the latter of which results in ratable recognition of the license fee over the term of the license, which is
generally 12 months.

We have limited control over existing and potential customers and licensees decisions to include our technology in
their product offerings.

In general we are dependent on our customers and licenseesincluding producers and distributors of
content for music, films, videos, software and gamesto incorporate our technology into their products. Although we have license agreements with many of these companies, many of these license agreements do not require any minimum purchase
commitments, or are on a non-exclusive basis, or do not require incorporation of our technology in their products. Furthermore, while we may be successful in obtaining mandatory status for our technology in one or more industry standards, there is
no guarantee that products associated with these standards will be successful in the market. Our licensees and other manufacturers might not utilize our technology in the future. If this were to occur, our business would be harmed.

A significant portion of our revenues is derived from international sales. Economic, political, regulatory and other
risks associated with our international business could have an adverse effect on our operating results.

International and export sales
together represented 43%, 42% and 42% of our consolidated net revenues in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. We expect that international and export sales will continue to represent a substantial portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable
future. Our future growth will depend to a large extent on worldwide acceptance and deployment of our content protection and DRM solutions for music CDs, digital PPV networks, DVDs, and consumer software. Worldwide adoption of our FLEXnet software
solutions will also be an important driver of future growth.

To the extent that foreign governments impose restrictions on importation of
programming, technology or components from the U.S., the requirement for content protection and rights management solutions in these markets could diminish. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property
rights to the same extent as do the laws of the U.S., which increases the risk of unauthorized use of our technologies and the ready availability or use of circumvention technologies. Such laws also may not be conducive to copyright protection of
digital content and software, which may make our content protection technology less effective and reduce the demand for it.

Because we
sell our products worldwide, our business is subject to the risks associated with conducting business internationally, including:



| |  |  | foreign government regulation;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in diplomatic and trade relationships;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in, or imposition of, foreign laws and regulatory requirements;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in, or weakening of copyright and intellectual property (patent) laws and support for content protection and DRM technologies;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulty of effective enforcement of contractual provisions in local jurisdictions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | tariffs or taxes and other trade barriers and restrictions;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fluctuations in our net effective income tax rate driven by changes in the percentage of revenues that we derive from international sources;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in a specific countrys or regions political or economic condition, including changes resulting from the threat of terrorism;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulty in staffing and managing foreign operations; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------

Our
business could be materially adversely affected if foreign markets do not continue to develop, if we do not receive additional orders to supply our technologies or products for use in foreign prerecorded video, music, PPV and other applications
requiring our content protection solutions or if regulations governing our international businesses change. For example, our products are eligible for export under the U.S. Export Administration Act and U.S. export regulations. We have implemented a
program to comply with these laws and regulations, but cannot guarantee that any particular product can be exported to any particular location at any particular time. Any changes to the statute or the regulations with respect to export of encryption
technologies could require us to redesign our products or technologies or prevent us from selling our products and licensing our technologies internationally.

If we fail to develop and deliver innovative technologies in response to changes in the entertainment industry, our
business could decline.

The markets for our products and technologies are characterized by rapid change and technological evolution. We
will need to continue to expend considerable resources on research and development in the future in order to continue to design and deliver enduring, innovative digital content protection and lifecycle value management entertainment products and
technologies. Despite our efforts, we may not be able to develop and effectively market new products, technologies and services that adequately or competitively address the needs of the changing marketplace. In addition, we may not correctly
identify new or changing market trends at an early enough stage to capitalize on market opportunities. At times such changes can be dramatic, such as the shift from VHS videocassettes to DVDs for consumer playback of movies in homes and elsewhere,
the anticipated shift to high definition DVD or the transition from packaged media to Internet distribution. Our future success depends to a great extent on our ability to develop and deliver innovative technologies that are widely adopted in
response to changes in the entertainment industry and that are compatible with the technologies or products introduced by other entertainment industry participants. If we are unsuccessful in developing and delivering new technologies, our business
would be harmed.

Our success is heavily dependent upon our proprietary technologies.

We believe that our future success will depend on our ability to continue to introduce proprietary solutions for digital content and software lifecycle
value management solutions and technologies that can be supplemented by enabling features that will incent consumers and users to pay for legitimate video, audio and software products, rather than trying to get them for free in an unauthorized
fashion. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, and technical measures to protect our intellectual property rights. Our patents, trademarks or copyrights may be
challenged and invalidated or circumvented. Our patents may not be of sufficient scope or strength or be issued in all countries where products incorporating our technologies can be sold. The last of our core group of analog copy protection patents
expire in the year 2017. In many cases, we have filed applications to expand our patent claims and for improvement patents to extend the current expiration dates, however, expiration of some of our patents may harm our business. If we are not
successful in protecting our intellectual property, our business would be harmed.

Others may develop technologies that are similar or
superior to our technologies, duplicate our technologies or design around our patents. A number of companies with extensive financial resources have developed intellectual property in the digital rights management field, including InterTrust,
Philips, Sony, RealNetworks, ContentGuard, IBM, Apple and Microsoft. Such competitive threats could harm our business.

Effective
intellectual property protection may be unavailable or limited in some foreign countries. Despite efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise use aspects of processes and devices that we regard as
proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our proprietary information is difficult, and the steps we have taken may not prevent misappropriation of our technologies.

We may initiate patent infringement or patent interference actions or other litigation to protect our intellectual property, which could be costly and harm our business.

Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our patents and other intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the
validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. For a description of our current legal proceedings, see Legal Proceedings.

We, and many of our current and potential competitors, dedicate substantial resources to protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights, especially patents in the area of digital rights management technologies. We believe that
companies will continue to take steps to protect these technologies, including, but not limited to, seeking patent protection. As a result, disputes regarding the ownership of these technologies and

the associated rights are likely to arise in the future and may be very costly. Companies in the technology and content-related industries have frequently
resorted to litigation regarding intellectual property rights. We may be forced to litigate to determine the validity and scope of other parties proprietary rights. Any such litigation could be very costly and could distract our management
from focusing on operating our business. The existence and/or outcome of such litigation could harm our business.

We may be subject to intellectual
property infringement claims or other litigation, which are costly to defend and could limit our ability to use certain technologies in the future.

From time to time we receive claims and inquiries from third parties alleging that our internally developed technology, technology we have acquired or technology we license from third parties may infringe other third
parties proprietary rights, especially patents. Third parties have also asserted and most likely will continue to assert claims against us alleging infringement of copyrights, trademark rights or other proprietary rights, or alleging unfair
competition or violations of privacy rights. We could be required to spend significant amounts of time and money to defend ourselves against such claims. If any of these claims were to prevail, we could be forced to pay damages, comply with
injunctions, or stop distributing our products and services while we re-engineer them or seek licenses to necessary technology, which might not be available on reasonable terms or at all. We could also be subject to claims for indemnification
resulting from infringement claims made against our customers and strategic partners, which could increase our defense costs and potential damages. Any of these events could require us to change our business practices and harm our business.

Litigation could harm our business and result in:



| |  |  | substantial settlement or related costs, including indemnification of customers;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diversion of management and technical resources;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | either our customers discontinuing to use or ourselves discontinuing to sell infringing products;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our expending significant resources to develop non-infringing technology; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our obtaining licenses to infringed technology.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------

In 2005,
we entered into a new business for the protection and enablement of audio, video and software content on the Internet and P2P networks. There has been, and we believe that there will continue to be, an increasing level of litigation to determine the
applicability of current laws to, and impact of new technologies on, the use and distribution of content over the Internet and P2P networks and through new devices, especially as it relates to the music, motion picture and software industries. P2P
network providers and consumer activist groups have been very active in litigation against attempts to restrict the free use and distribution of content over the Internet and P2P networks. As we develop products and services that protect, provide or
enable the provision of content in such ways, the risk of litigation against us may increase.

It may be time-consuming and costly to enforce our
patents against devices and hacking techniques that attempt to circumvent our content protection technology, and our failure to control them could harm our business.

We use our patents to limit the proliferation of devices and technologies intended to circumvent our video content protection technologies. In the past, we have initiated a number of patent infringement disputes
against manufacturers and distributors of these devices and software. In the event of an adverse ruling in such litigation, the value of our video protection technology may decline due to the legal availability of such a circumvention device, or we
may have to obtain rights to the offending devices to protect the value of our technology. The legal availability of circumvention devices could result in the increased proliferation of devices that defeat our content protection technology and a
decline in demand for our technologies, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Any legal or other enforcement action that we may initiate could be time-consuming to pursue, involve
costly litigation, divert managements attention from operations or may not be successful. See Legal Proceedings.

In the
PC games copy protection market, a number of individuals have developed and posted SafeDisc Advanced hacks on the Internet, or CD cloning software. If we are not able to develop technologies that deter the hackers from developing circumvention or
cloning techniques, our customers could reduce their usage of our technology because it was compromised. We expect to encounter similar challenges with our TotalPlay music content protection product, our Ripguard DVD anti-ripper product and our
Hawkeye P2P file sharing antipiracy service.

CGMS-A is an alternative analog copy protection technology for which we have patents that
apply in the United States. We believe this technology has applicability in protecting digital content within home media centers, Internet downloads, and digital PPV/VOD broadcasts. We would like to license these patents to both content owners and
hardware manufacturers, but in order to maintain strong customer relationships, we may not be able to monetize these patents. If we license these patents and they are contested, we may find that the cost in terms of litigation expense, management
diversion, and reduced customer goodwill may offset the revenue potential and could harm our business.

Legislative initiatives seeking to weaken
copyright law or new governmental regulation and resulting legal uncertainties could harm our business.

Consumer rights advocates and
other constituencies continuously challenge copyright law, notably the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998, through both legislative and judicial actions. Legal uncertainties surrounding the application of the DMCA may adversely affect our
business. If copyright law is compromised, or devices that can circumvent our technology are permitted by law and become prevalent, this could result in reduced demand for our technologies, and our business would be harmed.

Many laws and regulations are pending and may be adopted in the United States, individual states and local jurisdictions and other countries with respect
to the Internet. These laws may relate to many areas that impact our business, including copyright and other intellectual property rights and digital rights management. These types of regulations are likely to differ between countries and other
political and geographic divisions. Other countries and political organizations are likely to impose or favor more and different regulation than that which has been proposed in the United States, thus furthering the complexity of regulations. In
addition, state and local governments may impose regulations in addition to, inconsistent with, or stricter than federal regulations. Changes to or the interpretation of these laws could expose us to increased litigation risk, substantial defense
costs and other liabilities. It is not possible to predict whether or when such legislation may be adopted, and the adoption of such laws or regulations, and uncertainties associated with their validity, interpretation, applicability and
enforcement, could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our relationships with entertainment industry participants are particularly important
to our businesses, and if we fail to maintain such relationships our business could be materially harmed.

If we fail to maintain and
expand our relationships with a broad range of participants throughout the entertainment industry, including motion picture studios, broadcasters, video game designers, music producers and manufacturers of consumer electronics products, our business
and prospects could be materially harmed. Relationships have historically played an important role in the entertainment industries that we serve. If we fail to maintain and strengthen these relationships, these entertainment industry participants
may not purchase and use our technologies, which could materially harm our business and prospects. In addition to directly providing a substantial portion of our revenue, these relationships are also critical to our ability to have our technologies
adopted as industry standards. Moreover, if we fail to maintain our relationships, or if we are not able to develop relationships in new markets in which we intend to compete in the future, including markets for new technologies

and expanding geographic markets, our business, operating results and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, if major industry
participants form strategic relationships that exclude us, our business and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

We must establish and
maintain licensing relationships with companies other than content owners or software publishers to continue to build and support a worldwide content value management ecosystem and to expand our business, and failure to do so could harm our business
prospects.

Our future success will depend upon our ability to establish and maintain licensing relationships with companies in related
business fields, including:



| |  |  | DVD and CD authoring facilities, mastering houses and replicators;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DVD and CD authoring tools software companies and replicator test equipment suppliers;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DVD and CD hardware manufacturers;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | videocassette duplicators;
| | - |  | --------------------------



| |  |  | semiconductor and equipment manufacturers;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | operators of digital PPV and VOD networks;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | consumer electronics, digital PPV/VOD set-top hardware manufacturers, and PC manufacturers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | DRM suppliers, especially in the music business; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Internet portals and other digital distribution companies.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------

Substantially all of our license agreements are non-exclusive, and therefore our licensees are free to enter into similar agreements with third parties, including our competitors. Our licensees may develop or pursue alternative technologies
either on their own or in collaboration with others, including our competitors.

Some of our third party license arrangements will require
that we license others technologies and/or integrate our solutions with others. As an example, our customers will expect that our music copy protection, authentication, and controlled burning technologies will be integrated with various DRM
solutions. In addition, we rely on third parties to report usage and volume information to us. Delays, errors or omissions in this information could harm our business. If these third parties choose not to support integration efforts or delay the
integration, our business could be harmed.

We must continue to provide satisfactory support and maintenance services to our software customers.

Our future success will depend on our ability to provide adequate software support and maintenance services to our independent software
vendor electronic license management customers. As they release new applications or modify their software to run on new platforms, it is important that their businesses not be disrupted as a result of inadequate support from us. Failure to deliver
such services could harm our business.

We depend on third parties to implement and support our SafeDisc Advanced, our TotalPlay music copy protection,
and our Ripguard DVD anti-ripper software modules within their optic disc encoding and quality assurance equipment.

We rely on third
party vendors such as DCA, Eclipse, Media Morphics and CD Associates to develop and incorporate software modules that will:



| |  |  | apply the various digital signature, formatting, and copy protection technology at licensed replication facilities; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | allow replicators to run specialized quality assurance tests to confirm our technologies are applied.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our operations could be disrupted if our relationships with third party vendors are disrupted or if their
products are defective, not available or not accepted by licensed replicators. This could result in a loss of customer orders and revenue.

Our various digital content value management solutions are available in more than 123 of the worlds largest mastering and replication facilities, and are designed to be fully compatible with standard CD manufacturing processes.
Nevertheless, we rely on such third parties to properly apply these technologies to optical media-based content on behalf of our customers and to properly perform quality assurance testing with respect to such content. Any improper application of
the technology or improper quality assurance testing by such third party mastering and replication facilities may result in content that does not contain our copy protection technology or may result in other defects in the rights holders content,
and may therefore, result in a loss of revenue or a claim against us by the content owner.

We rely on our licensees and others to accurately prepare
manufacturing reports in determining our entertainment related licensing revenue, and if these reports are inaccurate, our operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Our entertainment related licensing revenue is generated primarily from content owners who license our technologies and incorporate them in their
products. Under our existing arrangements, these licensees typically pay us a per-unit licensing fee based on the number of units of product they manufacture that incorporates our technologies. We depend on third party replicators to properly apply
our content protection technology to content on behalf of our customers, to properly perform quality assurance testing with respect to such content and to accurately report the number of copy protected units manufactured. In collecting our license
fees, preparing our financial reports, projections and budgets and directing our sales and product development efforts, we rely on those manufacturing reports from our customers and their replicators. However, it is often difficult for us to
independently determine whether or not our licensees are reporting shipments accurately. Although we generally have audit rights, audits are expensive and time consuming and initiating audits could harm our customer relationships. To the extent that
our licensees understate or fail to report the number of products incorporating our technologies that they ship, we will not collect and recognize revenue to which we are entitled, which could adversely affect our operating results. To the extent
that these same parties improperly report and overstate the number of products incorporating our technologies that they ship, we may have to issue credits for past revenue, which could adversely affect our operating results.

Our operating results may fluctuate depending upon when we receive manufacturing reports from our entertainment related licensees.

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate depending upon when we receive royalty reports from our entertainment related licensees. We recognize a
portion of our entertainment related license revenue only after we receive royalty reports from our licensees regarding the manufacture of their products that incorporate our technologies. As a result, the timing of our entertainment related revenue
is dependent upon the timing of our receipt of those reports, some of which are not delivered until late in the quarter or after the end of the quarter. This may put us in a position of being not able to anticipate a decline in revenues inany given
quarter. In addition, it is not uncommon for royalty reports to include corrective or retroactive royalties that cover extended periods of time. Furthermore, there have been times in the past when we have recognized an unusually large amount of
entertainment related licensing revenue from a licensee in a given quarter because not all of our revenue recognition criteria were met in prior periods. This can result in a large amount of entertainment related licensing revenue from a licensee
being recorded in a given quarter that is not necessarily indicative of the amounts of entertainment related licensing revenue to be received from that licensee in future quarters, thus causing fluctuations in our operating results and resulting in
potential volatility in the price of our common stock.

We are exposed to risks associated with expanding our technology base through strategic acquisitions and investments.

We have expanded our technology base in the past through strategic acquisitions and investments in companies with complementary
technologies or intellectual property and intend to do so in the future. Acquisitions always hold special challenges in terms of successful integration of technologies, products and employees. Most recently, we completed the acquisition of Zero G
Software Inc. in June 2005, Trymedia Systems, Inc. in July 2005 and eMeta Corporation in February 2006. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of these or any other companies we have acquired in the past and companies we acquire in the future,
and we may not be able to incorporate any acquired services, products or technologies with our existing operations, or integrate personnel from the acquired businesses, in which case our business could be harmed.

Acquisitions and other strategic investments involve numerous risks, including:



| |  |  | problems integrating the purchased operations, technologies, personnel or products over geographically disparate locations, including most recently, San Francisco, California and
Alicante, Spain;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unanticipated costs, litigation and other contingent liabilities;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adverse effects on existing business relationships with suppliers and customers;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | risks associated with entering into markets in which we have no, or limited, prior experience;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | incurrence of significant exit charges if products acquired in business combinations are unsuccessful;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | significant diversion of managements attention from our core business and diversion of key employees time and resources;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | inability to retain key customers, distributors, vendors and other business partners of the acquired business; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential loss of our key employees or the key employees of an acquired organization.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Financing for future acquisitions may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. If we identify an appropriate acquisition candidate for any of our businesses, we may not be able to negotiate the terms of the
acquisition successfully, finance the acquisition or integrate the acquired business, products, technologies or employees into our existing business and operations. Future acquisitions may not be well-received by the investment community, which may
cause our stock price to fall. We have not entered into any agreements regarding any future acquisitions and cannot ensure that we will be able to identify or complete any acquisition in the future.

If we acquire businesses, new products or technologies in the future, we may incur significant acquisition-related costs. In addition, we may be required
to amortize significant amounts of identifiable intangible assets and we may record significant amounts of goodwill that will be subject to annual testing for impairment. We have in the past and may in the future be required to write off all or part
of one or more of these investments that could harm our business. If we consummate one or more significant future acquisitions in which the consideration consists of stock or other securities, our existing stockholders ownership could be
significantly diluted. If we were to proceed with one or more significant future acquisitions in which the consideration included cash, we could be required to use a substantial portion of our available cash. Acquisition activities could also cause
operating margins to fall depending upon the financial models of the businesses acquired.

Our strategic investments may involve joint
development, joint marketing, or entry into new business ventures, or new technology licensing. Any joint development efforts may not result in the successful introduction of any new products by us or a third party, and any joint marketing efforts
may not result in increased demand for our products. Further, any current or future strategic acquisitions and investments by us may not allow us to enter and compete effectively in new markets or enhance our business in any current markets.

We currently hold minority equity interests in a number of companies, including Digimarc, a public
corporation. Other than Digimarc, our strategic investments are in privately held companies. There is no active trading market for the securities of privately held companies and our investments in them are illiquid at best. We have written off all
of our investments in such privately held companies and we may never have an opportunity to realize any return on our investments in them. Through December 31, 2001, we had invested an aggregate of $53.3 million in strategic investments. Since
December 31, 2001, we have not made any additional strategic investments. Since January 1, 2001, we have written off $40.2 million of strategic investments resulting from impairment that was other-than-temporary, and we may have to write
off additional amounts in the future.

Our products could be susceptible to errors, defects, or unintended performance problems that could result in
lost revenues, liability or delayed or limited market acceptance.

We offer and develop a series of complex content value management and
software solutions, which we license to customers. The performance of these products typically involves working with sophisticated software, computing and communications systems. Due to the complexity of these products offered and developed, and
despite our quality assurance testing, the products may contain undetected defects or errors that may affect the proper use or application of such products by the customer. Because our products are embedded in digital content and other software, our
solutions performance could unintentionally jeopardize our customers product performance. Although we have had no such incidents to date, a recent situation with competitive music copy protection products demonstrated that certain
rootkit based design approaches resulted in unacceptable security and usability concerns to consumers. Any such defects, errors, or unintended performance problems in existing or new products, and any inability to meet customer
expectations in a timely manner, could result in loss of revenue or market share, failure to achieve market acceptance, diversion of development resources, injury to our reputation, increased insurance costs and increased service, any of which could
materially harm our business.

In addition, we rely on the customer and third party replicators to properly use our products to protect the
software and applications to which our technology may be applied. Any improper use or application of the software by the customer or the third party replicators may render our technologies useless and result in losses from claims arising out of such
improper use of the products.

Because customers rely on our products for copy protection and digital rights management of their software
and applications, defects or errors in our products may discourage customers from purchasing our products. These defects or errors could also result in product liability or warranty claims. Although we attempt to reduce the risk of losses resulting
from these claims through warranty disclaimers and limitation of liability clauses in our agreements, these contractual provisions may not be enforceable in every instance. Furthermore, although we maintain errors and omissions insurance, this
insurance may not adequately cover these claims. If a court refused to enforce the liability-limiting provisions of our contracts for any reason, or if liabilities arose that were not contractually limited or adequately covered by insurance, our
business could be materially harmed.

In protecting copyrights and other intellectual property rights of our customers, our products affect
consumer use of our customers products. Consumers may view this negatively and discontinue or threaten to discontinue purchase or use of our customers products unless our customers stop using our technologies. This may cause a decline in
demand for our products or legal actions against us by our customers or consumers.

If use of the Internet for delivery of software does not increase as
we anticipate, our business may suffer.

Some of our products are designed to support using the Internet to deliver, install, deploy,
activate, update or pay for software or digital media. The revenues we generate from these products depend on increased acceptance and use of the Internet as a medium of commerce, communications and delivery of software and digital media. Acceptance
and use of the Internet may not continue to develop at historical rates, and a sufficiently broad base of business customers may not adopt or continue to use the Internet to conduct their

operations. Demand and market acceptance for recently introduced services and products over the Internet are subject to a high level of uncertainty, and
there are few proven services and products. Our business could be seriously harmed if:



| |  |  | The necessary communication and computer network technology underlying the Internet and other online service does not effectively support any expansion that may occur;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | New standards and protocols are not developed or adopted in a timely manner; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Concerns about security, reliability, cost, ease of use, accessibility, quality of service, or other factors results in the Internet not becoming established as a viable commercial
marketplace, inhibiting the development of electronic commerce and reducing the need for and desirability of our products and services.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If use of the Internet for delivery of video and audio programming increases, our business may suffer.

Some of our
products, such as video, audio and packaged software copy protection, are designed to be applied to packaged media, and we receive royalties based on the number of units produced. If electronic delivery of such products using the Internet were to
increase, our revenues from packaged media may be adversely affected and not replaced by Internet-based revenues. In this event, our business could be seriously harmed.

We have a relatively limited operating history with our digital distribution of downloadable PC games business, which makes it difficult to evaluate its impact on our business.

We recently completed the acquisition of Trymedia Systems, a digital distribution network for downloadable PC games, in July 2005. We have a relatively
limited history operating this business and as a result, we have limited financial results from this business on which to assess our future prospects. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently
encountered by companies in new and rapidly evolving businesses.

For our business to succeed, we need to attract and retain qualified employees and
manage our employee base effectively.

Our success depends on our ability to hire and retain qualified employees and to manage our
employee base effectively. Because of the specialized nature of our business, our future success will depend upon our continuing ability to identify, attract, train and retain other highly skilled managerial, technical, sales and marketing
personnel, particularly as we enter new markets. We have implemented a senior management succession program in order to effectively plan for changes in our executive officers over time but there can be no guarantee that we will find appropriate
candidates. Competition for people with the skills that we require is intense, particularly in the San Francisco Bay area where our headquarters are located, and the high cost of living in this area makes our recruiting and compensation costs
higher. In particular, due to the overall decline in technology market values and the resultant impact on our stock price, using stock options as an incentive to hire and retain employees may be less effective. If we are unable to hire and retain
qualified employees, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

For our business to succeed, we need to integrate new senior
management into the organization.

In 2005, we had significant changes in our senior management team, including the hiring of a new
chief executive officer and chief financial officer. The change of senior management can result in significant disruption to our ongoing operations, and new senior personnel must spend a significant amount of time learning our business and our
systems in addition to performing their regular duties. Our future success depends on our ability to integrate new senior management personnel into the company. We do not have nor do we intend to obtain key person life insurance covering any of our
personnel.

Calamities or terrorist attacks in Silicon Valley, the U.K. or other countries in which our offices are located could
disrupt our business and adversely affect our operations.

Our headquarters office facilities in Santa Clara, California are in areas of
seismic activity near active earthquake faults. Any earthquake, fire or other calamity affecting our facilities may disrupt our business and substantially affect our operations. A terrorist attack targeting Silicon Valley, the U.K. or other
countries in which our offices are located could disrupt our business and substantially affect our operations.

Our telephone and computer networks are
subject to security and stability risks that could harm our business and reputation and expose us to litigation or liability.

Online
business activities depend on the ability to transmit confidential information and licensed intellectual property securely over private and public networks. Any compromise of our ability to transmit such information and data securely or reliably,
and any costs associated with preventing or eliminating such problems, could harm our business. Online transmissions are subject to a number of security and stability risks, including:



| |  |  | our own or licensed encryption and authentication technology, and access and security procedures, may be compromised, breached or otherwise be insufficient to ensure the security of
customer information or intellectual property;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we could experience unauthorized access, computer viruses, system interference or destruction, denial of service attacks and other disruptive problems, whether
intentional or accidental, that may inhibit or prevent access to our websites or use of our products and services;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | someone could circumvent our security measures and misappropriate our, our partners or our customers proprietary information or content or interrupt operations, or
jeopardize our licensing arrangements, which are contingent on our sustaining appropriate security protections; or
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our computer systems could fail and lead to service interruptions.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------

The occurrence of any of these or similar events could damage our business, hurt our ability to distribute products and services and collect revenue, threaten the proprietary or confidential nature of our technology,
harm our reputation, and expose us to litigation or liability. Because some of our technologies and businesses are intended to inhibit use of or restrict access to our customers intellectual property, we may become the target of hackers or
other persons whose use of or access to our customers intellectual property is affected by our technologies. We may be required to expend significant capital or other resources to protect against the threat of security breaches, hacker attacks
or system malfunctions or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches, attacks or failures.

We will incur increased costs and demands upon management
as a result of complying with the laws and regulations affecting public companies, which could affect our operating results.

We have
incurred, and will continue to incur, significant legal, accounting and other expenses associated with recently adopted corporate governance and public company reporting requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as
well as new rules implemented by the SEC and the Nasdaq. The expenses incurred by public companies generally for reporting and corporate governance purposes have been increasing. As long as the SEC requires the current level of compliance for public
companies of our size, we expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. We do believe, however, that we will be able to fund these costs out of our
available working capital. We also expect these new rules and regulations may make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur
substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage than was previously available. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as our executive
officers.

If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate financial statements
could be impaired, which could increase our operating costs and affect our ability to operate our business.

We have a complex business
that is international in scope. Ensuring that we have adequate internal financial and accounting controls and procedures in place to help ensure that we can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming
effort that needs to be re-evaluated frequently. We are continually in the process of documenting, reviewing and, if appropriate, improving our internal controls and procedures in connection with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,
which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and a report by our independent registered public accountants addressing these assessments. If we or our independent registered public
accountants identify areas for further attention or improvement, implementing any appropriate changes to our internal controls may require specific compliance training of our directors, officers and employees, entail substantial costs in order to
modify our existing accounting systems, and take a significant period of time to complete. Such changes may not, however, be effective in maintaining the adequacy of our internal controls, and any failure to maintain that adequacy, or consequent
inability to produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis, could increase our operating costs and could materially impair our ability to operate our business.

Changes in, or interpretations of, tax rules and regulations may adversely affect our effective tax rates.

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and foreign tax jurisdictions. Our future effective tax rates could be unfavorably affected by the changes in tax laws or the interpretation of tax laws, by changes in the amount of revenue or
earnings that we derive from international sources in countries with low statutory tax rates, or by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. Unanticipated changes in our tax rates could affect our future results of
operations.

In addition, we are subject to examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other domestic and
foreign tax jurisdictions. We regularly assess the likelihood of outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. In making such assessments, we exercise judgment in estimating our provision for
income taxes. While we believe our estimates are reasonable, we cannot assure you that the final determination from these examinations will not be materially different from that reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Any
adverse outcome from these examinations may have an adverse effect on our business and operating results, which could cause the market price of our stock to decline.

Interpretation of existing laws that did not originally contemplate the Internet could harm our business and operating results.

The application of existing laws governing issues such as property ownership, copyright and other intellectual property issues to the Internet is not clear. Many of these laws were adopted before the advent of the
Internet and do not address the unique issues associated with the Internet and related technologies. In many cases, the relationship of these laws to the Internet has not yet been interpreted. New interpretations of existing laws may increase our
costs, require us or our customers to change business practices or otherwise harm our business.

We may be subject to market risk and legal liability in
connection with the data collection capabilities of our products and services.

Many of our products are interactive Internet
applications that by their very nature require communication between a computer system or network client and server to operate. To provide better consumer experiences and to operate effectively, our products send information to ours or our
customers servers. Many of the services we provide also require that a user provide certain information to us. We post an extensive privacy policy concerning



30

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

the collection, use and disclosure of user data involved in interactions between our client and server products. Any failure by us or our customers to comply
with our posted privacy policy and existing or new legislation regarding privacy issues could impact the market for our products and services, subject us to litigation and harm our business.

We may be subject to legal liability for the provision of third-party products, services or content.

We periodically enter into arrangements to offer third-party products, services, content or advertising under our brands or via distribution on our
websites or in our products or service offerings. We may be subject to claims concerning these products, services, content or advertising by virtue of our involvement in marketing, branding, broadcasting or providing access to them. Our agreements
with these parties may not adequately protect us from these potential liabilities. It is also possible that, if any information provided directly by us contains errors or is otherwise negligently provided to users, third parties could make claims
against us, including, for example, claims for intellectual property infringement. Investigating and defending any of these types of claims is expensive, even if the claims do not result in liability. If any of these claims results in liability, we
could be required to pay damages or other penalties, which could harm our business and our operating results.

We may be subject to assessment of sales
and other taxes for the sale of our products, license of technology or provision of services.

We do not currently collect sales or
other taxes on the sale of our products, license of technology or provision of services in states and countries other than those in which we have offices or employees. Our business would be harmed if one or more states or any foreign country were
able to require us to collect sales or other taxes from past sales of products, licenses of technology or provision of services, particularly because we would be unable to go back to customers to collect sales taxes for past sales and would likely
have to pay such taxes out of our own funds.

Effective July 1, 2003, we began collecting Value Added Tax, or VAT, on sales of
electronically supplied services provided to European Union residents, including software products, games, data, publications, music, video and fee-based broadcasting services. There can be no assurance that the European Union will not
make further modifications to the VAT collection scheme, the effects of which could require significant enhancements to our systems and increase the cost of selling our products and services into the European Union. The collection and remittance of
VAT subjects us to additional currency fluctuation risks.

The Internet Tax Freedom Act, or ITFA, which Congress extended until November
2007, among other things, imposed a moratorium on discriminatory taxes on electronic commerce. The imposition by state and local governments of various taxes upon Internet commerce could create administrative burdens for us and could decrease our
future sales.

Industry Risks

If
consumer reaction to music copy protection and digital rights management technologies is unfavorable, our revenue potential may be adversely affected.

We entered the market for music CD copy protection and rights management through the acquisition of the assets of Midbar Tech (1998) Ltd. and TTR Technologies, Inc. in 2002 and 2003, respectively. Patents we
acquired from both Midbar and TTR cover first session copy protection and controlled burningtwo technologies that we believe are fundamental to success in the music copy protection business. Our TotalPlay product incorporates an active license
manager solution that requires automatic transfer of software code from the CD to the PC hard drive. The consumer must opt in to this action if they want to listen to the CD on their PC. A number of competitors have developed similar or
alternative music copy protection solutions. The solution we are marketing may not achieve or sustain market acceptance, or may not meet, or continue to meet, the demands of the music industry.

It is possible that there could be significant consumer resistance to audio copy protection, as consumers
may feel that copy protection degrades the sound quality of the original or that they are entitled to freely copy audio CDs, because no technology has been used in the past to prevent copying. Adverse publicity, negative consumer reaction and
lawsuits regarding competing copy protection technologies may impede adoption of our product, and our revenue may be adversely affected. It is not clear whether the major music labels will deploy any copy protection solutions if there is sustained
consumer resistance. To date, we have seen limited acceptance of our technology in Europe and Japan. We believe that the major music labels have not moved to deploy the technology in the U.S. because they are concerned about playability issues and
negative consumer reaction. If the music labels conclude that shipping increasingly meaningful volumes of CDs that include our technologies generate unacceptable consumer backlash, our revenue potential may be adversely affected. If the market for
music CD copy protection fails to develop, or develops more slowly than expected, if our solution does not achieve or sustain market acceptance or if there is significant and sustained consumer resistance to this technology, our business would be
harmed.

We license technology for digital VOD and PPV copy protection, and if this market does not grow as anticipated or we are unable to serve this
market effectively, our revenues may be adversely affected.

While our copy protection capability is embedded in more than
145 million digital set-top boxes manufactured by the leading digital set-top box manufacturers, only approximately 13 cable or satellite system operators in North America have activated copy protection for digital PPV or VOD programming. Our
ability to expand our markets in additional home entertainment venues such as digital PPV or VOD will depend in large part on the support of the major motion picture studios in advocating the incorporation and activation of copy protection
technology in the hardware and network infrastructure required to distribute such video programming. If the MPAA studios do not require copy protection activation for PPV or VOD movies, or if PPV/VOD system operators do not specify our copy
protection in their set-top boxes, or if the system operators do not activate copy protection in other digital PPV networks outside of Canada, Germany, Japan, Hong Kong or the United Kingdom, then our business may be harmed.

Further, consumers may react negatively to copy protected PPV or VOD programming because they may feel they are entitled to copy, having in the past
routinely copied for later viewing analog cable and satellite-delivered subscription television and PPV programs, as well as free broadcast programming. In addition, when incoming video signals are routed through a VCR before reaching a TV set, the
consumer may see impaired pictures while viewing a copy protected digital PPV program. If there is consumer dissatisfaction that cannot be managed, or if there are technical compatibility problems, our business could be harmed.

Pricing pressures on the content owners that incorporate our technologies into their products could limit the licensing fees we charge for our technologies, which
could adversely affect our revenues.

The markets for the products in which our technologies are incorporated are intensely competitive
and price sensitive. Retail prices for such products that include our technology, such as DVDs and CDs, have decreased significantly, and we expect prices to continue to decrease for the foreseeable future. In response, content owners have sought to
reduce their product costs, which can result in downward pressure on the licensing fees we charge our customers who incorporate our technologies into the products they sell. A decline in the licensing fees we charge could materially and adversely
affect our operating results.

If we are unable to compete effectively with existing or new competitors, we could experience price reductions, fewer
customers, reduced margins or loss of market share.

We believe that our DVD digital-to-analog copy protection and videocassette copy
protection systems currently have no competitors. It is possible, however, that competitive copy protection technologies could be developed in the future. Increased competition would be likely to result in price reductions and loss of market share,
either of which could harm our business.

In the video market, there are a variety of supplemental copy protection and encryption systems that
provide partial copy protection for digital links (the DTLA 5C encryption technology); the 4C pre-recorded media and recordable media copy protection systems; CSS, a content scrambling system for the DVD format; Intels High Definition Copy
Protection (HDCP) encryption for both the Digital Display Working Groups Digital Video Interfaces (DVI) and HDMI Licensing, LLCs High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI). These systems are not
directly competitive, as some apply to future products, but they are sometimes confused with our analog copy protection and may create uncertainty in the minds of customers, thereby reducing or delaying our licensing opportunities. Additionally,
they may compete from the standpoint of content owners believing they have a limited budget for copy protection, and they may choose to spend their copy protection dollars on only a few technologies.

Our primary competition in the electronic license management market currently comes from our own prospective customersthose independent software
vendors who believe they can develop their own electronic license management solutions instead of purchasing them. In the event that software vendors succeed with their internal developments, or forego the implementation of such applications, this
would adversely affect our business. Other competitors include companies offering digital rights management, electronic licensing, or electronic software distribution technology, as well as companies that have historically offered hardware dongle
products and are shifting to software-based protection. Operating system developers or microprocessor suppliers may choose to integrate rights management solutions into their products. Software resellers could also begin to develop their own
electronic license management solutions. In addition to having more traditional competitors in various subcomponents of our offerings, such as SafeNet that has a license management offering and Altiris that has an installer offering, we may face new
or increased competition from smaller and emerging companies such as XtreamLok, Softwrap and Reprise Software.

Our other software
solutions, namely our InstallShield Installer, Update Service, InstallAnywhere and Admin Studio have other competitors, but none of these competitors have the breadth of software management solutions that we do. In the Installer business,
Altiris Package Studio is the primary competition for our Admin Studio solution and Microsoft may be a competitor in the future. Update Service appears to have no competition other than from our customers who believe they can develop their own
solutions.

There are a limited number of competitors in our SafeDisc Advanced consumer software copy protection market, including
SecureRom, Sonys DADC optical disk manufacturing subsidiary, and StarForce Technologies. However, it is possible that our own customers may develop software copy protection technologies on their own, or that personal computer operating system
and microprocessor companies may develop or license copy protection modules or systems that are internal to the PC or other consumer electronic devices.

In the consumer software Product Activation market, as in the enterprise software electronic license management market there is substantial competition from customer implemented internally developed solutions, as from
small companies such as Australian company XtreamLok, and software e-commerce vendors like Digital River.

DRM solutions for consumer
software, video, and audio have also attracted a number of companies and significant venture capital, including Intertrust Technologies (owned by Sony and Philips), Microsoft, Content Guard, Apple, and Real Networks. It is possible that companies
with extensive financial resources may develop or acquire copy protection and rights management solutions that compete with our offerings, or may have a controlling patent position which would negatively impact our cost basis, or may give away their
DRM technologies as in the case of the Windows Media Player.

Several of our competitors in the audio copy protection and rights management
market, including SunnComm, Sony, Settec and First4Internet have participated in early market trials with one or more major record labels. New competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant



33

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

market share in any of these areas. Our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements
than we do, which could reduce demand for our products or render them obsolete.

It may be more difficult for us, in the future, to have our
technologies adopted as individual industry standards to the extent that entertainment industry participants collaborate on the development of industry standard technologies.

Increasingly, standards-setting organizations are adopting or establishing technology standards for use in a wide-range of consumer electronics products.
As a result, it is more difficult for individual companies to have their technologies adopted wholesale as an informal industry standard. In addition, increasingly there are a large number of companies, including ones that typically compete against
one another, involved in the development of new technologies for use in consumer entertainment products. As a result, these companies often license their collective intellectual property rights as a group, making it more difficult for any single
company to have its technologies adopted widely as a de facto industry standard or to have its technologies adopted as an exclusive, explicit industry standard. Examples of this include MPEG-LA (DRM licensing); Advanced Access Control System (AACS)
for next generation DVD encryption; HD-DVD and BluRay DVD (next generation DVD formats). If our technologies are not supported by these standards bodies or patent pools, it may be more difficult for us to grow our business in the future. Our major
customers may have a large influence on industry standards and the widespread adoption of new technologies. The selection of alternative technologies to ours or to those on which our technologies operate would harm our business.

We have built a substantial business in the software value management space, and market conditions are different from the entertainment digital product value
management space.

Our major software value management products include FLEXnet Publisher and FLEXnet InstallShield. FLEXnet Publisher
is licensed to software publishers as a software product that enables these customers to offer multiple licensing models and automatically enforce compliance with license terms. FLEXnet InstallShield is also sold to software publishers as an
automatic installer to help them with automatic and transparent installations of their software on most Windows and non-Windows PCs and servers. There is no assurance of our ability to grow and be successful with these products and if we are
unsuccessful in the software management market, our business would be harmed.

Major software vendors have experienced deteriorating
economic conditions as corporate customers have reduced capital expenditures. Demand for our software solutions is driven, to some degree, by end-user demand for software applications. If economic conditions for software vendors continue to be
difficult, demand for our products could decline. This would result in lower revenues and operating income for this line of business.

In
some cases, customers make a substantial capital investment when purchasing our software and commit additional resources to installation and deployment. Potential customers spend significant time and resources to determine which software to
purchase. Selling our products sometimes requires an extensive sales effort because the decision to adopt our software solutions generally involves several customer executives in various functions and geographic areas. Due to these factors, our
sales cycle is unpredictable, and the number of sales and amount of revenue generated from such sales varies from quarter to quarter.

Our software
products are designed for the traditional software business model, and if the application service provider business model were to become the preferred model, our revenues may be adversely affected.

The traditional application software business model has been characterized by software vendors selling to enterprise IT departments who host the software
on the enterprises servers and manage the software from within the enterprise. With the initial success of the software as a service (SAaS) business model, under which the



34



---

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

software application is hosted in the software vendors remote servers and there is no server software resident in the enterprise, some industry experts
have questioned whether the SAaS model will eventually replace the traditional application software business model. We believe it is too early to make this prediction, however, because our software solutions are mostly tailored for the traditional
software model, if the SAaS model were to become very popular, it could harm our business.

We have entered the market for digital anti-ripper products
and for peer-to-peer file sharing antipiracy products and we do not know if we will be successful in selling products for either application.

In August 2003, we acquired intellectual property and other assets, including patents and software that can be used to track and manage content in the peer-to-peer file sharing space. In 2004, we introduced our Hawkeye technology, which is
designed to protect copyrighted content that is discovered being illicitly traded over the P2P file sharing networks, and in 2005, we introduced our RipGuard DVD technology, which is designed to be added to the DVD at the time of manufacture in
order to prevent unauthorized ripping by PCs. These solutions may not achieve or sustain market acceptance, or may not meet, or continue to meet, the demands of the content owners. If the market for digital anti-ripper products or peer-to-peer
antipiracy products fails to develop, or develops more slowly than expected, if our solutions do not achieve or sustain market acceptance or if there is significant and sustained consumer resistance to this technology, our business would be harmed.

Our business may be affected by peer-to-peer services on the Internet.

Our business may be affected by free peer-to-peer services, such as KaZaA, e-Donkey, Morpheus and a variety of other similar services that
allow computer users to connect with each other and to copy/share many types of program files, including music and other media, from one anothers hard drives, all without securing licenses from content providers. Even though the U.S. Supreme
Court ruled in 2005 that Internet peer-to-peer companies like Grokster Ltd. can be held liable for copyright infringement when individuals use their technology to download songs and movies illegally, the Court did not address the question of whether
peer-to-peer file sharing technology is illegal in itself. Additionally, enforcement efforts against those in violation have not effectively shut down these services, and there can be no assurance that these services will ever be shut down. The
ongoing presence of these free services substantially impairs the marketability of legitimate services and of technologies that shut down other unauthorized sources of the program file content, regardless of the ultimate resolution of
their legal status. To the extent that consumers choose to utilize these peer-to peer services and do not purchase authentic packaged media or authorized DRM downloads, it may adversely affect our business for packaged media copy protection.

Investment Risks

The price of our
common stock may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock has been, and in the future could be, significantly affected by
factors such as:



| |  |  | actual or anticipated fluctuations in operating results;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | announcements of technical innovations;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | new products or new contracts;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | competitors or their customers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | governmental regulatory and copyright action;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | developments with respect to patents or proprietary rights;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in financial estimates or coverage by securities analysts;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Index to Financial Statements

| |  |  | changes in tax law or the interpretation of tax laws; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general market conditions.
| | - |  | --------------------------

Announcements by the MPAA or
its members, satellite television operators, cable television operators or others regarding motion picture production or distribution, consumer electronics or software vendor companies business combinations, evolving industry standards,
consumer rights activists wins in government regulations or the courts, or other developments could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

There can be no assurance that our historic trading prices and price/earnings ratios, or those of high technology companies in general, will be
sustained. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a companys securities, some companies have been named in class action suits.

Further, the military conflict in Iraq, additional acts of terrorism and related political instability and economic uncertainty may adversely affect the global financial markets, which could cause the market price of
our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

We utilize non-GAAP (pro forma) reporting in our quarterly earnings press releases.

We publish non-GAAP (pro forma) results in our quarterly earnings press releases along with a reconciliation of non-GAAP (pro forma) earnings to earnings
compiled in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The reconciling items have adjusted GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per share for certain non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring items
and are described in detail in each such quarterly earnings press release. We believe that this presentation may be more meaningful in analyzing the results of operations and income generation as this is how the business is managed. We have not
included any such non-GAAP (pro forma) earnings or reconciliation to GAAP earnings in this annual report. The market price of our stock may fluctuate based on future non-GAAP (pro forma) results. However, we urge investors to carefully review the
GAAP financial information included as part of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K that are filed with the SEC, as well as our quarterly earnings releases, and compare the GAAP financial information with the
non-GAAP (pro forma) financial results disclosed in our quarterly earnings releases and investor calls, as well as in some of our other reports. If we decide to curtail this non-GAAP (pro forma) presentation in our quarterly earnings press releases,
the market price of our stock could be affected.

If we continue to support broad-based employee stock option grants in the future, recent changes in
accounting standards that require companies to expense stock options will decrease our GAAP earnings and our stock price may decline.

We believe that employee stock options are an important element of total compensation. Currently, we account for employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of (i) Accounting Principles Board
(APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, (ii) Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 44 (FIN 44), Accounting for Certain Transactions
Involving Stock Compensationan Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, and comply with the disclosure provisions of (iii) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation.

Effective the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, which is the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the FASB
will require us to follow SFAS 123R, Share-Based Payment,which will require us to measure compensation expense for employee stock options using the fair value method. SFAS 123R applies to all outstanding stock options that are not
vested at the effective date and grants of new stock options made subsequent to the effective date. As a result of SFAS 123R, we will record higher levels of stock based compensation due to differences between the valuation methods of
SFAS 123R and APB 25. If we continue to support broad-based employee stock option

grants after January 1, 2006, employee stock-based compensation arrangements to be accounted for as an expense (in a manner different to APB No. 25
and FIN 44), which may have a material, negative impact upon our future earnings. Alternatively, if we cut back on employee stock option grants, we may lose an important benefit that impacts the recruiting and retention of quality employees, and our
business could be harmed. If we replace broad based employee option grants with other types of performance based incentives, or restricted stock, we also will be required to report these incentives as expenses. Any of these consequences could cause
the market price of our stock to decline.

If our independent registered public accountants are unable to provide us with an unqualified report as to
the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting for future year-end periods as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, investors could lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which could
result in a decrease in the value of our stock.

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the SEC adopted
rules requiring public companies to include a report by management on our internal control over financial reporting in their annual reports on Form 10-K that contains an assessment by our management of the effectiveness of internal control
over financial reporting. In addition, the public accounting firm auditing our financial statements must attest to and report on our managements assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. While we
continuously conduct a rigorous review of our internal control over financial reporting in order to comply with the Section 404 requirements, our independent registered public accountants may interpret the Section 404 requirements and the
related rules and regulations differently from how we interpret them, or our independent registered public accountants may not be satisfied with our internal control over financial reporting or with the level at which these controls are
documented, operated or reviewed in the future. In addition, the demand for competent audit resources has grown dramatically as a result of the requirements of Section 404, and such demand may exceed available supply. Finally, in the event we
make a significant acquisition, or a series of smaller acquisitions, we may face significant challenges in implementing the required processes and procedures in the acquired operations. As a result, our independent registered public accountants may
decline or be unable to attest to managements assessment or may issue a qualified report in the future. This could result in an adverse reaction in the financial markets due to investors perceptions that our internal controls are
inadequate or that we are unable to produce accurate financial statements, which could cause the market price of our shares to decline.

Our corporate headquarters consist of
approximately 160,000 square feet located in Santa Clara, California. The leases for these premises expire on January 31, 2017. We also lease approximately 46,000 square feet in Schaumburg, Illinois pursuant to a lease that expires on
January 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2005, we lease approximately 14,500 square feet in San Francisco, California pursuant to two office leases that expire in April of 2006. We expect to consolidate our San Francisco offices into a single
new leased office of approximately 19,500 square feet upon expiration of the current leases. Most U.S. sales, marketing and technical personnel for all product divisions are in these locations, with a small number of individuals operating out of
their home offices. We believe that our existing facilities are adequate to meet current requirements and that additional or substitute space will be available as needed to accommodate any expansion of operations.

We also lease space for sales, marketing and technical staff in Maidenhead and Cheshire in the United Kingdom and in Tokyo, Japan; Seoul, Korea;

We have not been required to pay

We are involved in legal proceedings related to some of our intellectual property rights.

USPTO Interference Proceedings Between Macrovision Corporation and InterTrust Technologies

We
received notice on September 4, 2003 from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) declaring an interference between our U.S. Patent No. 5,845,281 (the 281 patent) together with two of its continuation
applications, and a patent application determined to be from InterTrust Technologies Corporation. On December 19, 2003, we received notice from the USPTO declaring an additional interference between two continuation applications related to the
281 patent and four issued U.S. patents of InterTrust. The 281 patent and its continuation applications are in the field of digital rights management, and are not associated with any of our existing copy protection businesses.

An interference is declared by the USPTO when two or more parties claim the same patentable invention. In the United States, the party who
can prove earliest inventorship is granted the patent. The Administrative Patent Judge (APJ) decided to proceed with the second interference first. In the second patent interference, the APJ issued a decision on April 11, 2005 that
was adverse to us. As a result of this decision, we may have to forfeit a portion of our United States patent claims. In addition, on September 13, 2005, the APJ granted InterTrusts motion regarding a claim that errors constituting
inequitable conduct were committed by us during the original prosecution of the 281 patent. As a result of this decision, our patent claims in the interferences are rendered unenforceable in the United States. In the first patent interference,
a hearing on the priority phase of the interference was held on September 1, 2005. On December 28, 2005, the APJ ruled in Macrovisions favor on the first set of claims. This ruling would assign the patent claims to Macrovision, but
such claims are subject to enforceability limitations related to the inequitable conduct decision. InterTrust has filed for a rehearing relating to the December 28, 2005 decision. At this time, we are considering various options to appeal these
decisions.

We have a family of international patents and patent applications related to the U.S. cases involved in the interference. The
U.S. patent interference affects only U.S. patents and U.S. pending patent applications. The international cases are proceeding to grant in Europe and Japan. A corresponding patent has already issued in Sweden (Patent No. 9500355) and a
European patent application was recently indicated by the Examiner as allowable and is expected to be granted in the first quarter of 2006. These international cases have the benefit of the February 1, 1995 priority date and broad patent claim
coverage.

BIS Advanced Software Systems, Ltd. vs. InstallShield Software Corporation et. al.

On September 9, 2004, BIS Advanced Software Systems, Ltd. filed a patent infringement lawsuit against a small group of companies, including
InstallShield. We acquired the operations and certain assets of InstallShield on July 1, 2004. InstallShield was served with the complaint on September 27, 2004. The BIS patent (6,401,239) allegedly relates to a vBuild product that
InstallShield licensed from Red Bend Software and sold as an add-on product. InstallShield discontinued sales of this product in early 2004 and the patent does not appear to implicate any current core InstallShield products. Further, Red Bend
Software has agreed to indemnify InstallShield and defend the suit for Macrovision. We are monitoring the progress of the suit and the actions taken by Red Bend on our behalf.

Macrovision Corporation. vs. Sima Products Corporation, and Interburn Enterprises, Inc.

On
June 14, 2005, we filed a lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against Sima Products Corporation and Interburn Enterprises, Inc., alleging that both companies manufacture, distribute or sell products

that infringe our patented copy protection technology and also violate the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998. The patents involved are: United
States Patent No. 4,631,603 entitled Method and apparatus for processing a video signal so as to prohibit the making of acceptable videotape recordings thereof, and U.S. Patent No. 4,819,098 entitled Method and apparatus
for clustering modifications made to a video signal to inhibit the making of acceptable videotape recordings. Interburn has entered into a stipulated judgment where they agreed not to further distribute their products. Our case against Sima is
proceeding.

InstallShield Software Corporation Liquidating Trust vs. Macrovision

On October 27, 2005, we received notice of an arbitration proceeding filed by InstallShield Software Corporation Liquidating Trust (the
Trust.) The Trust is demanding arbitration of certain disputes between the Trust and us pursuant to Asset Purchase Agreement dated June 16, 2004 by and among InstallShield Software Corporation, the Company, Macrovision Europe
Limited, and Macrovision International Holding L.P. (the Agreement). Under the Agreement, we may have been required to make an additional contingent payment of up to $20 million based on post-acquisition revenue performance through
June 30, 2005. Based upon the revenue results through June 30, 2005, we concluded that no additional payment was required under the terms of the Agreement. The Trust alleges that the post-acquisition revenue performance targets were not
reached due to our conduct in violation of the Agreement, and therefore is seeking the contingent payment in an amount exceeding $15 million. We deny these allegations and intend to vigorously defend our self in the arbitration proceeding.

As of December 31, 2005, for all the abovementioned matters, it was not possible to estimate the liability, if any, in connection
with the pending matters. Accordingly, no accruals for these contingencies have been recorded.

From time to time we have been involved in
other disputes and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, none of these other disputes and legal actions is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash
flow.

Price Range of Common Stock

Our common stock has been
listed on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol MVSN since our initial public offering on March 13, 1997. The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the reported high and low closing prices for our common
stock.

|Fourth Quarter |  | $    | 19.66 |     | $ | 14.93

As of February 15, 2006, there were 91 holders of record of our common stock, based upon
information furnished by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the transfer agent for our securities. We believe, based upon security positions listings, that there are approximately 4,824 beneficial owners of our common stock. As of
February 15, 2006, there were 51,366,388 shares of common stock outstanding.

Dividend Policy

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock since 1994. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future. At this time, we intend to retain all earnings for use in our business operations and in expansion.

Stock Repurchase Authorization

In May 2002, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, which allows us to purchase up to 5.0 million shares in
the open market from time-to-time at prevailing market prices, through block trades or otherwise, or in negotiated transactions off the market, at the discretion of our management. In 2002, we repurchased 3.0 million shares of common stock
under this program, which have been recorded as treasury stock and resulted in a reduction of stockholders equity. We did not repurchase any shares of common stock under this program in 2005, 2004 or 2003. If we consider repurchasing the
remaining 2.0 million shares under this program in the future, we would seek reapproval from the Board of Directors.

Entertainment Technologies

Our Entertainment Technologies generate revenues from the home video divisions of member companies of the MPAA, videocassette duplication and DVD replication companies and a number of special interest
content owners, such as independent producers of exercise, sports, educational, documentary and corporate video programs. We typically receive per unit royalties based upon the number of copy-protected videocassettes or DVDs that are produced by
MPAA studios or other content owners. Our Entertainment Technologies also generate revenues from licensing digital PPV and VOD content protection solutions to satellite and cable system operators and equipment manufacturers that supply cable and
satellite industries. Most of our PPV content protection revenues are generated from royalties on digital set top boxes. We also receive one-time and annual license fees from set top box, DVD, and personal video recorder manufacturers. We also
receive transaction fees from PPV and VOD systems when they activate our technology to protect specific PPV or VOD programs. In addition, our Entertainment Technologies generate revenues from customers implementing our CD-ROM copy protection
technology on PC games, peer to peer anti-piracy services, as well as customers in the music industry who implement our copy technology on compact discs. In July 2005, we acquired Trymedia Systems, a provider of secure digital distribution services
and the operator of the largest distribution network for downloadable games. This acquisition has expanded our games solution set by providing an online game distribution and promotion offering. We have integrated Trymedia into our Entertainment
Technologies revenues.

Revenues from our Entertainment Technologies decreased $8.0 million, or 7.3% from 2004 to 2005. Revenues from our
video content protection technologies represented 45.4%, 55.2% and 63.3% of our net revenues during 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decreases in our video content protection technologies revenues are primarily due to the continued pricing
pressures in our DVD copy protection business as the full impact of lower pricing in our contracts with MPAA studios take effect. The decrease in DVD revenue was partially offset by the increase in PPV and VOD royalty revenue. During 2004, we
recognized approximately $2.2 million of revenue from studio volume replicated during 2003. We were not able to record these revenues in the year in which the volumes were replicated due to prolonged contract negotiations. During 2003, DVD copy
protection revenues included approximately $917,000 in revenue from the resolution of one customers over reporting claim.

We
actively engage in intellectual property compliance and enforcement activities focused on identifying third parties who have under reported to us the amount of royalties owed under license agreements with us. As a result, from time to time, we may
not receive timely replicator reports, and therefore, we may recognize revenues that relate to activities from prior periods. These royalty recoveries may cause revenues to be higher than expected during a particular reporting period and may not
occur in subsequent periods. We cannot predict the amount or timing of such revenues.

We believe that as we sign new contracts and
generate more business for our new products: Total Play; Hawkeye, RipGuard DVD, and ActiveMARK, future revenues from our Entertainment Technologies will increase in absolute terms and continue to be a significant part of our revenues, but may
vary as a percentage of our total revenues.

Software Technologies

Our Software Technologies generate revenues from licensing software value management solutions and providing services related to the support and maintenance of this software. Revenues from our Software Technologies
increased $29.2 million or 40.9% in 2005 as compared with 2004. The increase in our Software Technologies revenue is primarily due to the inclusion of InstallShield for the full year in 2005 and increased sales of our existing license
management solutions resulting from the impact of broad based product and marketing programs and the efforts of sales personnel added during the year. Software Technologies revenue includes Zero G since its acquisition on June 9, 2005. We
believe that revenues from our Software Technologies will continue to increase in the future in absolute terms, but may vary as a percentage of our total revenues.

Seasonality of Business

We have experienced significant seasonality in our business, and our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are likely to be affected by seasonality in the future. We have typically experienced our
highest revenues in the fourth quarter of each calendar year. We believe that this trend in our Entertainment Technologies business has been principally due to the tendency of certain of our customers to manufacture and release new video, audio, and
PC games titles during the year-end holiday shopping season, while our operating expenses are incurred more evenly throughout the year. In our Software Technologies business, we have found that typical software and enterprise customers tend to spend
up to one-third of their annual capital budgets in the fourth calendar quarter. In addition, revenues generally have tended to be lower in the summer months, particularly in Europe.

Costs and Expenses

Our cost of revenues for our Entertainment Technologies consists primarily of
replicator fees, Hawkeye service costs, ActiveMARK service costs and patent related litigation expense. Fees paid to licensed duplicators and replicators that produce videocassettes, DVDs, and CDs for content owners include fees paid to help offset
costs of reporting copy protected volumes and costs of equipment used to apply our technology. Hawkeye and ActiveMARK service costs include customer support, hosting, bandwidth and equipment maintenance costs. Our cost of revenues for our Software
Technologies includes software product support costs, direct labor and benefit costs of employees time spent on billable consulting or training, the cost of producing and shipping CDs containing our software and certain license fees paid to
third parties. Cost of revenues also includes patent defense costs, amortization of intangibles from acquisitions and patent amortization. Our research and development expenses are comprised primarily of employee compensation and benefits,
consulting and recruiting fees, tooling and supplies and an allocation of overhead and facilities costs. Our selling and marketing expenses are comprised primarily of employee compensation and benefits, consulting and recruiting fees, travel,
advertising and an allocation of overhead and facilities costs. Our general and administrative expenses are comprised primarily of employee compensation and benefits, consulting and recruiting fees, travel, advertising and an allocation of overhead
and facilities costs.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements. These consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful
accounts, valuation of strategic investments, intangible assets and income taxes. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ
from these estimates.

We have identified the accounting policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our
results of operations.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that have been prescribed for the software industry and with the guidelines of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB, No. 101 as
amended by SAB No. 104 Revenue recognition in Financial Statements for our hardware business.Revenue recognition requirements in the software industry are very complex and are subject to change. Our revenue recognition policy
is one of our critical accounting policies because revenue is a key component of our



44

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

results of operations and is based on complex rules which require us to make judgments and estimates. We generally recognize revenue when persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, we have delivered the product or performed the service, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. However, determining whether and when some of these criteria have been satisfied often involves
assumptions and judgments that can have a significant impact on the timing and amount of revenue we report. For example, for multiple element arrangements we must make assumptions and judgments in order to allocate the total price among the various
elements we must deliver, to determine whether undelivered services are essential to the functionality of the delivered products and services, to determine whether vendor-specific evidence of fair value exists for each undelivered element. Also, we
provide for returns on product sales in our channel business based on three month historical revenue trends and adjust such reserves as considered necessary. To date, there have been no significant sales returns.

Revenues from licensing video technology and trademarks are generated from licensing agreements with primarily motion picture studios that generally pay
a per-unit royalty fee for videocassettes and DVDs replicated under those license agreements. Licensees generally report replication activity within 30 to 60 days after the end of the month or quarter in which such activity takes place.
Consequently, we recognize revenue from these licensing agreements on an as earned basis, provided amounts are fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. The Company relies heavily on past experience and working relationship
with these customers to reasonably and successfully estimate current period volume in order to calculate the quarter end revenue accrual. Any unusual or unanticipated replication volumes in a particular period can add significant fluctuations
on the revenue reported.

If we change any of these assumptions or judgments, it could cause a material increase or decrease in the amount
of revenue that we report in a particular period. Amounts for fees collected or invoiced and due relating to arrangements where revenue cannot be recognized are reflected on our balance sheet as deferred revenue and recognized when the applicable
revenue recognition criteria are satisfied.

Valuation of Strategic Investments

As of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the adjusted cost of our strategic investments totaled $11.9 million and $18.8 million,
respectively. Our strategic investments include public and non-public companies. As of December 31, 2005, the adjusted cost of our strategic investments consisted solely of our investment in Digimarc, a publicly traded company. Our investments
in privately held companies had no carrying value as of December 31, 2005. The investment in Digimarc has been classified on the balance sheet as Long-term marketable investment securities.

We review our investments in public companies and estimate the amount of any impairment incurred during the current period based on specific analysis of
each investment, considering the activities of and events occurring at each of the underlying portfolio companies during the period. For investments in public companies, at each quarter end, we compare our basis in the investment to the average
daily trading prices of the security over the prior six months as a guideline to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. If the six-month average is less than the current cost basis, it triggers a review of the investment to
determine if an other-than temporary impairment has occurred. If we conclude that an other-than temporary impairment has occurred, we record an impairment charge to the statement of income for the difference between the market price at period end
and the current cost basis. Based on such methods, we recorded other-than temporary impairment losses on our investment in Digimarc of $5.8 million and $5.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

For equity investments in non-public companies for which there is no market where their value is readily determinable, we review each investment for
indicators of impairment on a regular basis based primarily on achievement of business plan objectives and current market conditions, among other factors. The primary business plan objectives we consider include, among others, those related to
financial performance such as

##### Table of Contents

##### Index to Financial Statements

liquidity, achievement of planned financial results or completion of capital raising activities, and those that are not primarily financial in nature such as
the launching of technology or the hiring of key employees. If it is determined that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred with respect to an investment in a portfolio company, an impairment charge is recorded. Future adverse changes in
market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could result in losses or an inability to recover the current carrying value of the investments thereby requiring further impairment charges in the future. In the absence of
quantitative valuation metrics, such as a recent financing round, management estimates the impairment and/or the net realizable value of the portfolio investment based on a hypothetical liquidation at book value approach as of the reporting date.

Based on these measurements, $180,000 and $4.8 million of other-than-temporary impairment losses from investments in non-public companies
were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. There were no impairment charges related to our investments in non-public companies during the year ended December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005 and
2004, our investments in non-public companies had no remaining carrying value.

In 2005 and 2004, we received $174,000 and $1.2 million,
respectively, in cash for our interests in strategic investments that had been fully impaired. Accordingly, we recorded gains on strategic investments of $174,000 and $1.2 million in 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill
represents the excess of cost over fair value of assets of businesses acquired. We account for goodwill under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a
purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires
that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

Goodwill and intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested annually for impairment, and
are tested for impairment more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. In 2005, 2004 and 2003, there were no triggering events that required us to test for impairment prior to our annual impairment
analysis.

In connection with our impairment analysis performed annually in our fourth quarter, we are required to perform an assessment of
whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired. To accomplish this, we are required to determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to
those reporting units. We determine the fair value of each reporting unit using the discounted cash flow approach and the market multiple approach. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we would be required to
perform the second step of the impairment analysis, as this is an indication that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired. In this step, we compare the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of the reporting
unit goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price
allocation, in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. The residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. To the extent the implied fair value of goodwill of each
reporting unit is less than its carrying amount we would be required to recognize an impairment loss. During the fourth quarter of 2005, we performed our most recent annual impairment analyses of goodwill. Based on the results of the annual
impairment analysis, we determined that no indicators of impairment existed for our reporting units and no impairment charges were recorded for goodwill. We will perform our next annual impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2006.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be
generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset
group. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and would no longer be depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group
classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet. In 2005, 2004 and 2003, no impairment charges were recorded for long-lived assets.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We estimate the
collectibility of our accounts receivable on an account-by-account basis. We record an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts when the prospect of collecting a specific account receivable becomes doubtful. In addition, we establish a
non-specific reserve, using a specified percentage of the outstanding balance of all such accounts based on historical bad debt loss experience. We specifically analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debts experience, customer
creditworthiness, current economic trends, international situations (such as currency devaluation), and changes in our customer payment history when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. If the financial condition of our
customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of
taxes payable or refundable for the current year and for deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entitys financial statements or tax returns. Management must make
assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine our current provision for income taxes and also our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance to be recorded against a deferred tax asset. Our judgments, assumptions and
estimates relative to the current provision take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by foreign and domestic tax authorities. Changes in tax law or our
interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of current and future tax audits could significantly impact the amount provided for income taxes in our consolidated financial statements.

Our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to the value of a deferred tax asset take into account predictions of the category and amount of future
taxable income. We believe that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to utilize these deferred tax assets net of valuation allowance. While we have considered future taxable income
and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for any valuation allowance, in the event we were to determine that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets not related to acquisitions in the future in the
excess of the net recorded amount, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would increase income in the period such determination was made. To the extent realization of the deferred tax assets related to certain acquisitions become probable,
recognition of these acquired tax benefits would first reduce goodwill to zero, then reduce other non-current intangible assets related to the acquisition to zero with the remaining benefit reported as a reduction to income tax expense. Deferred tax
assets, related valuation allowances and deferred tax liabilities are determined separately by tax jurisdiction.

License Revenues. Our license revenues for 2005 increased by $5.9 million or 3.7% compared to 2004
primarily due to higher revenue from our software products, partially offset by the decrease in video content protection revenues.

License
revenue from our software products increased primarily due to the inclusion of InstallShield for the full year in 2005. Installshield was acquired on July 1, 2004. To a lesser extent, the increase in our Software Technologies revenue is also
due to increased sales of all of our license management solutions resulting from the impact of broad based market demand and product and marketing programs.

DVD content protection revenues are lower due to the impact of lower pricing in our contracts with MPAA studios. The decrease in video content protection revenues were partially offset by higher PPV and VOD revenues
primarily from royalties and license fees from digital set top boxes due to strong demand from consumers, especially in international territories, for digital cable and digital satellite operators businesses. During 2004, we recognized $3.1
million in PPV revenue that was previously deferred until North American system operators activated the VOD system.

Service
Revenues. Our service revenues for 2005 are higher by $15.2 million or 70.2%, primarily due to the increase in service contracts to support the growth in our software customer base. Service revenues also include revenue from the acquisition of
Trymedia since July 2005.

Cost of RevenuesLicense Fees. Cost of revenues from license fees as a percentage of license
revenues decreased to 3.6% for 2005 from 5.1% for 2004. Cost of revenues from license fees decreased $2.3 million to $5.9 million in 2005 from $8.2 million in 2004. The decrease is primarily due to lower replicator fees as a result of the decline in
DVD content protection revenues.

Cost of RevenuesService Fees. Cost of revenues from service fees as a percentage of service
revenues increased to 47.7% for 2005 from 37.5% for 2004. Cost of revenues from service fees increased $9.5 million to $17.6 million in 2005 from $8.1 million in 2004. The increases are primarily due to the expansion of our customer support and
professional services groups to support the growth of our software customer base. The increases are also due to costs incurred to maintain our peer to peer anti piracy service and digital distribution service. We anticipate our cost of revenues from
service fees may increase as we continue to increase activity in our service products and expand our customer base.

Cost of
RevenuesAmortization of Intangibles from Acquisitions. Cost of revenues from amortization of intangibles increased to $11.0 million in 2005 from $6.4 million in 2004. The increase is primarily due to amortization of intangibles from the
acquisitions of Zero G and Trymedia in 2005 and InstallShield on July 1, 2004.

In July 2005, we acquired Trymedia, a privately-held
company based in San Francisco, California and in Alicante, Spain, for $31.8 million of purchase consideration. Trymedia provides secure digital distribution services and operates the largest Internet distribution network for downloadable games.
This acquisition expanded our games solution set by providing an online game distribution and promotion offering.

In June 2005, we
acquired Zero G, a privately-held company based in San Francisco, California, for $10.6 million of purchase consideration, all of which has been paid in cash. Zero G provided software deployment and delivery solutions for multi-platform operating
system environments. The acquisition increased our market for software value management solutions, added innovative technology and enhanced multi-platform products

In July 2004, we acquired the operations and net assets of InstallShield for $77.1 million in cash, including related acquisition costs. InstallShield was a leading provider of software installation tools which
expanded our product portfolio in the software value management category and enabled us to reach InstallShields large software developer customer base.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses increased by $5.7 million, or 20%, to
$34.4 million in 2005 from $28.7 million in 2004. The increase is primarily due to additional research and development activities from the full year impact of our acquisitions of Installshield in July 2004 and Zero G and Trymedia in mid 2005.
Research and development expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 16.9% in 2005 from 15.8% in 2004. We expect research and development expenses to increase in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenues over the prior year period as
a result of expected increases in research and development activity to support our new technologies.

Selling and Marketing.Selling
and marketing expenses increased by $13.8 million, or 33%, to $56.1 million in 2005 from $42.3 million in 2004. The increases are primarily due to higher costs associated with the full year impact of additional personnel and infrastructure from our
acquisitions of Installshield in July 2004 and Zero G and Trymedia in mid 2005. Selling and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 27.6% in 2005 from 23.2% in 2004. Selling and marketing expenses are expected to increase in
absolute terms and may vary as a percentage of revenues as we continue our efforts to increase our market share and grow our business.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $7.3 million, or 29%, to $32.9 million in 2005 from $25.6 million in 2004. The increases are primarily due to increased headcount and related costs to
support the overall growth of our business units and higher costs for compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. General and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 16% in 2005 from 14% in 2004. We expect our
general and administrative expenses to decrease in absolute terms and decrease as a percentage of revenues.

Restructuring Charge.In October 2005, our board of directors approved a restructuring program, which included a worldwide workforce reduction and restructuring of certain business functions. The workforce reduction was announced on November 3, 2005 and resulted
in the termination of 80 employees. All affected employees were informed of their termination prior to December 31, 2005. We recorded a charge of $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 and had restructuring liabilities of
approximately $1.3 million as of December 31, 2005. We expect this to be reduced to approximately $350,000 by the end of the first quarter of 2006.

In-process research and development. In connection with the acquisitions of Zero G in 2005, $500,000 was charged to in-process research and development in the year ended December 31, 2005. There were no
in-process research and development charges related to the Trymedia acquisition in July 2005. In connection with the acquisition of InstallShield in July 2004, $5.4 million was charged to in-process research and development in the year ended
December 31, 2004.

Impairment losses on strategic investments.During 2005, we recorded charges totaling $5.8 million relating
to an other-than-temporary impairment loss in our investment in Digimarc. During 2004, we recorded charges totaling $5.5 million relating to other-than-temporary impairment losses in our investments in Digimarc and iVast.

Gains on strategic investments.For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, we received $174,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, in cash
for our interests in strategic investment that had been fully impaired. Accordingly, during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, we recorded gains on strategic investments of $174,000 and $1.2 million, respectively.

Interest and Other Income, Net. Interest and other income increased $754,000, or 18%, to $4.9 million in 2005 from $4.2 million in 2004. This
increase is primarily due to higher interest rates earned in our investment portfolio.

Income Taxes. We recorded income tax expense
of $19.5 million and $20.7 million for 2005 and 2004, respectively. Income tax expense represents combined federal and state taxes at effective rates of 46.8% and

36.0% for 2005 and 2004, respectively. The change in effective tax rate in 2005 compared to 2004 was primarily due to the increase in valuation allowance,
the increase in tax charges for profits generated by our foreign operations, and tax charges for the distribution of foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.

License Revenues. Our license revenues for 2004 increased by $45.6 million or 39.7%
compared to 2003 primarily due to higher revenue from our video content protection and software products. The increase in license revenues was also due to $12.8 million in revenue from the inclusion of InstallShield product revenue since
July 1, 2004.

Video content protection revenues were higher due to the increase in numbers of DVDs sold and continued growth in
demand of the DVD format, continued high penetration among Hollywood studio customers, a strong hit release schedule that more than offset modest declines in our average unit royalties and decreased usage by certain Hollywood studios. Video content
protection revenues also increased due to higher PPV and VOD revenues primarily from royalties and license fees from digital set top boxes due to strong demand from consumers, especially in international territories, for digital cable and digital
satellite operators businesses. During 2004, we recognized approximately $2.2 million of revenue from studio volume replicated during 2003. We were not able to record these revenues in the year in which the volumes were replicated due to
prolonged contract negotiations. In 2003, DVD copy protection revenues included approximately $917,000 in revenue from the resolution of one customers over reporting claim. During 2004, we recognized $3.1 million in PPV revenue that was
previously deferred until North American system operators activated the VOD system.

Excluding the inclusion of InstallShield since
July 1, 2004, the increases in license revenue from our Software Technologies were primarily due to increased sales of our FLEXnet Publisher license management solutions resulting from the impact of broad based product and marketing programs
and additional sales personnel in our Software Technologies.

Service Revenues. Our service revenues for 2004 increased $8.1 million
or 60.0% to $21.7 million compared to $13.5 million in 2003, primarily due to the growth of our professional services practice which generated higher consulting revenue and our increased market penetration resulted in higher maintenance revenue. The
increase in service revenues was also due to $4.9 million from the inclusion of InstallShield since July 1, 2004.

Cost of
RevenuesLicense Fees. Cost of revenues from license fees as a percentage of license revenues increased to 5.1% for 2004 from 4.3% for 2003. Cost of revenues from license fees increased $3.2 million to $8.2 million in 2004 from $5.0 million
in 2003. The increases were primarily due to higher patent defense costs and higher patent amortization costs. Cost of revenues included items such as product costs, duplicator and replicator fees, video copy protection processor costs, patent
amortization on internally developed patents, patent defense costs, licensing expenses and the cost of producing and shipping CDs containing our software.

Cost of RevenuesService Fees. Cost of revenues from service fees as a percentage of service
revenues increased to 37.5% for 2004 from 25.6% for 2003. Cost of revenues from service fees increased $4.7 million to $8.1 million in 2004 from $3.5 million in 2003. The increases were primarily due to the expansion of our professional services
group to support additional consulting and implementation projects for our FLEXnet solutions. The increase was also due to $3.2 million in costs associated with additional personnel and infrastructure from our acquisition of InstallShield since
July 1, 2004.

Cost of RevenuesAmortization of Intangibles from Acquisitions. Cost of revenues from amortization of
intangibles increased to $6.4 million in 2004 from $3.3 million in 2003. The increase was primarily due to amortization of intangibles from the acquisition of InstallShield in July 2004.

We acquired the operations and net assets of InstallShield in July 2004 for approximately $77.1 million in cash, including related acquisition
costs. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and approximately $28.8 million of the purchase price was allocated to existing technology, existing contracts, patents and trademarks. In addition, we recorded $43.2 million of goodwill
from this transaction and recorded a $5.4 million charge in 2004 for purchased in-process research and development. We amortize intangibles, with the exception of goodwill, relating to the acquisition of net assets of InstallShield on a
straight-line basis over three to six years based on the expected useful lives of existing technology, existing contracts, patents and trademarks.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses increased by $10.9 million, or 61.6%, to $28.7 million in 2004 from $17.8 million in 2003. The increase was primarily due to increased research and development activities
for our video technology, music technology, peer-to-peer antipiracy and software value management products resulting in higher costs. The increases were also due to $4.5 million in costs associated with additional personnel and infrastructure from
our acquisition of InstallShield since July 1, 2004. Research and development expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 15.8% in 2004 from 13.8% in 2003.

Selling and Marketing.Selling and marketing expenses increased by $14.3 million, or 51.0%, to $42.3 million in 2004 from $28.0 million in 2003. The increases were due to higher costs from increased business
development activities for our entertainment and software technologies products on an overall basis as well as increased commission costs associated with higher revenue levels. The increases were also due to $6.0 million in costs associated with
additional personnel and infrastructure from our acquisition of InstallShield since July 1, 2004. Selling and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 23.2% in 2004 from 21.8% in 2003.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $5.4 million, or 26.6%, to $25.6 million in 2004 from
$20.2 million in 2003. The increases were primarily due to increased headcount and related costs to support the overall growth of our business units and higher costs for compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. To a lesser extent, the
increase was also due to costs associated with additional personnel and infrastructure from our acquisition of InstallShield since July 1, 2004. General and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of net revenues to 14.0% in 2004
from 15.7% in 2003.

In-process research and development. In connection with the acquisition of InstallShield in July 2004,
$5.4 million was charged to in-process research and development in the year ended December 31, 2004. In connection with the acquisition of intellectual property and other assets in the peer-to-peer file sharing space in August 2003, $624,000
was charged to in-process research and development in 2003.

Impairment losses on strategic investments.During 2004 and 2003, we
recorded charges totaling $5.5 million and $4.8 million, respectively, relating to other-than-temporary impairment of certain strategic investments. During 2004, we recorded $5.3 million and $180,000 in charges relating to other-than-temporary
impairments in our investments in Digimarc and iVast, respectively. During 2003, we recorded $4.8 million in charges relating to an other-than-temporary impairment in our investment in iVast.

Gains on strategic investments.For the year ended December 31, 2004, we received $1.2
million in cash for our interest in InterActual Technologies, the assets of which were acquired by a third party during the first quarter of 2004. In fiscal year 2001, this strategic investment had been fully impaired. Accordingly, during the year
ended December 31, 2004, we recorded a gain on strategic investments of $1.2 million. During 2003, we recorded a realized gain of $395,000 from the surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock, which was used to acquire patents and other
assets of TTR, a public company strategic investment, and a realized gain of $57,000 for distributions received in excess of its book value for our investment in NTRU Cryptosystems, a private company.

Interest and Other Income, Net. Interest and other income increased $321,000, or 8.3%, to $4.2 million in 2004 from $3.9 million in 2003. This
increase was primarily due to foreign exchange gains. As the Euro grew strong against the US Dollar in 2004, we recorded a gain on our Euro bank balances where the functional currency was the US Dollar. This increase was partially offset by a
decrease in interest income due to a decline in our investment balances. The decline in our investment balances was due to the acquisition of InstallShield.

Income Taxes. We recorded income tax expense of $20.7 million and $22.6 million for 2004 and 2003, respectively. Income tax expense represented combined federal and state taxes at effective rates of 36.0% and
45.6% for 2004 and 2003, respectively. The change in effective tax rate in 2004 compared to 2003 was primarily due to the increase in valuation allowance and the higher portion of profits generated by our foreign operations.

tax charges arising from the distribution of foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.

Our operating results have fluctuated in the past, and are expected to continue to fluctuate in the
future, on an annual and quarterly basis as a result of a number of factors. Such factors include the timing of release of popular titles on videocassettes or DVDs or by digital PPV transmission, the timing of release of popular computer games on
CD-ROM, the timing of a small number of our electronic license management high-value perpetual licenses during any period, the degree of acceptance of our copy protection technologies by major motion picture studios and computer game publishers, the
mix of products sold and technologies licensed, any change in product or license pricing, the seasonality of revenues, changes in our operating expenses, personnel changes, the development of our direct and indirect distribution channels, foreign
currency exchange rates and general economic conditions. We may choose to reduce royalties and fees or increase spending in response to competition or new technologies or elect to pursue new market opportunities. Because a high percentage of our
operating expenses are fixed, a small variation in the timing of recognition of revenues can cause significant variations in operating results from period to period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations primarily from cash generated by
operations, principally our content protection products and our software value management products. Our operating activities provided net cash of $55.2 million, $59.7 million and $58.9 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Cash provided by
operating activities decreased $4.5 million from $59.7 million in 2004 to $55.2 million in 2005. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in net income partially offset by the changes in deferred revenue and accounts receivable. In
addition, the availability of cash generated by our operations in the future could be affected by other business risks discussed in the Risk Factor section of this annual report.

Investing activities (used) provided net cash of $(35.0) million, $1.3 million and $(137.2) million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Cash from
investing activities decreased $36.3 million from $1.3 million in 2004 to $(35.0) million in 2005. The decrease in 2005 is primarily due to the use of approximately $40.8 million for the acquisitions of Zero G and Trymedia during the year ended
December 31, 2005. We made capital expenditures of $8.7 million, $4.8 million and $2.8 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Capital expenditures are primarily for computer software and equipment to fortify the infrastructure of our
peer to peer anti piracy service. The increase in capital expenditures is also due to furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements for additional office space in California. We also paid $1.8 million, $1.1 million and $6.3 million in 2005, 2004
and 2003, respectively, related to patents during those periods.

In July 2005, we acquired Trymedia, a privately-held company based in San
Francisco, California and in Spain, for $31.8 million of purchase consideration. As of December 31, 2005, we have paid an aggregate of $31.5 million in cash. Trymedia provided secure digital distribution services and is the operator of the
largest distribution network for downloadable games. This acquisition expanded our games solution set by providing an online game distribution and promotion offering.

In June 2005, we acquired Zero G, a privately-held company based in San Francisco, California, for $10.6 million of purchase consideration, all of which has been paid in cash. Zero G provided software deployment and
delivery solutions for multi-platform operating system environments. The acquisition increased our market for software value management solutions, added innovative technology and enhanced multi-platform products.

In July 2004, we acquired the operations and net assets of InstallShield for $77.1 million in cash, including related acquisition costs. InstallShield
was a leading provider of software installation tools which expanded our product portfolio in the software value management category and enabled us to reach InstallShields large software developer customer base.

In November 2002, we acquired the assets and operations of Midbar for approximately $17.8 million in cash and related acquisition costs. In addition, we
are subject to an additional maximum payout of $8.0 million based

on a percentage of revenues derived from our sales of music technology products through December 31, 2004. During 2005, 2004 and 2003, we paid $497,000,
$1.1 million and $480,000, respectively, of such contingent consideration in cash.

In August 2003, we acquired intellectual property and
other assets, including patents, existing contracts, and software code that can be used to track and manage content in the peer-to-peer, or P2P, file sharing space. We paid $720,000 in cash, $80,000 of acquisition costs and an additional payment of
$80,000 due on the first anniversary of the closing date for total purchase consideration of $880,000.

Net cash provided by financing
activities was $12.1 million, $15.2 million and $6.8 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities from $15.2 million in 2004 to $12.1 million in 2005 is primarily due to the decline in
proceeds from stock option exercises.

In May 2002, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, which allows us to
purchase up to 5.0 million shares in the open market from time-to-time at prevailing market prices, through block trades or otherwise, or in negotiated transactions off the market, at the discretion of our management. In 2002, we repurchased
3.0 million shares of common stock under this program, which have been recorded as treasury stock and resulted in a reduction of stockholders equity. We did not repurchase any shares of common stock in 2005, 2004 or 2003. If we consider
repurchasing the remaining 2.0 million shares under this program in the future, we would seek reapproval from the Board of Directors.

At December 31, 2005, we had $135.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, $111.0 million in short-term investments, and $15.0 million in long-term marketable investment securities, which includes $11.9 million in fair market
value of our holdings in Digimarc. We anticipate that capital expenditures for the next 12 months will aggregate approximately $12.0 million in order to support the growth of our business and strengthen our operations infrastructure.

In February 2006, we acquired eMeta Corporation (eMeta) for cash consideration of $35.0 million. eMeta is a leading provider of software
solutions that enable companies to control and sell digital goods and services online. eMeta is a privately held company based in New York. The acquisition of eMeta extends our reach from physical distribution into the online digital distribution
segment.

We have future minimum lease payments of approximately $59.5 million under operating leases. We believe that the current
available funds and cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future. We may also use cash to acquire or invest in additional businesses or to obtain
the rights to use certain technologies in the future.

We typically pay taxes during the year as part of our normal quarterly estimated tax
payments. In addition to these normal tax payments, we will also have additional tax payments associated with the distribution of foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (AJCA) which was signed into law on
October 22, 2004. It introduced a limited time 85% dividends received deduction on the repatriation of certain foreign earnings. In the fourth quarter of 2005, our foreign subsidiaries distributed $65 million to Macrovision
Corporation. The distribution increased the provision for income taxes by $2.3 million and income taxes payable by $4.1 million.

Because a significant portion of our cash inflows were generated by operations, our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations may be jeopardized by fluctuations in our operating results. Such fluctuations can occur as a result
of decreases in demand for our copy protection products, our software value management products, or due to other business risks including, but not limited to, those factors set forth under the caption Risk Factors contained in this
annual report.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), or SFAS 123R, Share-Based Payment. This statement replaces SFAS 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and supersedes Accounting Principles Boards Opinion No. 25 (ABP 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). SFAS 123R requires the measurement of
all employee share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in our consolidated statements of income. In April 2005, the SEC announced that the
accounting provisions of SFAS 123R are to be applied in the first quarter of the fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. As a result, we are now required to adopt SFAS 123R in the first quarter of 2006. The non-GAAP (pro forma)
disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. See Note 1The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for information related to the non-GAAP (pro forma)
effects on our reported net income and net earnings per share. We are evaluating the requirements under SFAS 123R and expect the adoption to have a significant adverse impact on our results of operations.

In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB No. 107). SAB No. 107
provides guidance on the initial implementation of SFAS No. 123R. In particular, the statement includes guidance related to share based payment awards with non-employees, valuation methods and selecting underlying assumptions such as expected
volatility and expected term. It also gives guidance on the classification of compensation expense associated with SBP awards and accounting for the income tax effects of share based payment awards upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R.

In May 2005 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 154, Accounting Changes and
Error Corrections, which replaces Accounting Principles Board No. 20 (APB 20), Accounting Changes, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial
Statements. SFAS 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior
periods financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. APB 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized with a cumulative effect adjustment in net
income of the period of the change. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes made in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2005.

In June 2005, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-06, Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements (EITF 05-06). EITF 05-06 provides guidance for determining the
amortization period used for leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or purchased after the inception of a lease, collectively referred to as subsequently acquired leasehold improvements. EITF 05-06 provides that the

##### Index to Financial Statements

amortization period used for the subsequently acquired leasehold improvements to be the lesser of (a) the subsequently acquired leasehold
improvements useful lives, or (b) a period that reflects renewals that are reasonably assured upon the acquisition or the purchase. EITF 05-06 is effective on a prospective basis for subsequently acquired leasehold improvements purchased
or acquired in periods beginning after the date of the FASBs ratification, which was on June 29, 2005. We do not expect the adoption of EITF 05-06 to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.



|ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and security investments. Changes in these factors may cause fluctuations in our earnings and cash flows. We evaluate and manage
the exposure to these market risks as follows:

Fixed Income Investments. We have an investment portfolio of fixed income securities,
including those classified as cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term marketable investment securities of $261.7 million as of December 31, 2005. These securities are subject to interest rate fluctuations. An increase in interest
rates could adversely affect the market value of our fixed income securities.

We do not use derivative financial instruments in our
investment portfolio to manage interest rate risk. We limit our exposure to interest rate and credit risk, however, by establishing and strictly monitoring clear policies and guidelines for our fixed income portfolios. The primary objective of these
policies is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields, without significantly increasing risk. A hypothetical 50 basis point increase in interest rates would result in an approximate $107,000 decrease (approximately 0.1%) in the
fair value of our fixed income available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2005. Yield risk is also reduced by targeting a weighted average maturity of our portfolio at 12 months so that the portfolios yield regenerates itself as
portions of the portfolio mature.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. Due to our reliance on international and export sales, we are
subject to the risks of fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Because a substantial majority of our international and export revenues, as well as expenses, are typically denominated in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in currency exchange rates could
cause our products to become relatively more expensive to customers in a particular country, leading to a reduction in sales or profitability in that country. Our subsidiaries in the U.K., Japan and Israel operate in their local currency, which
mitigates a portion of the exposure related to the respective currency collected.

Strategic Investments. We currently hold minority
equity interests in a number of companies. These investments, at book value totaling $11.9 million and $18.8 million, represented 2.4% and 4.1% of our total assets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. As of December 31, 2005, the adjusted
cost of our strategic investments consisted of our investment in Digimarc, a publicly traded company. In addition, we hold investments in a number of other privately held companies, which have no carrying value as of December 31, 2005. Digimarc is
subject to price fluctuations based on the public market. Because there is no active trading market for the securities of privately held companies, our investments in them are illiquid. As such, we may never have an opportunity to realize a return
on our investment in these private companies, and we may in the future be required to write off all or part of one or more of these investments. During 2005, 2004 and 2003, we wrote off $5.8 million, $5.5 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of
strategic investments resulting from impairment that was other-than-temporary. In 2005, the $5.8 million impairment was partially offset by gains of $174,000 related to gains on our interests in strategic investments that had been fully impaired. In
2004, the $5.5 million impairment loss was partially offset by a gain of $1.2 million related to the gain from the sale of InterActual Technologies. In 2003, the $4.8 million impairment loss was partially offset by a gain of $395,000 related to the
surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock, which was used to acquire patents and other assets of TTR.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief
financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that
our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.

Managements Report on Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control
over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:



| |  |  | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting
as of December 31, 2005. In making this assessment, we used the framework in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our
assessment and the criteria set forth by COSO, we believe that Macrovision maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005. Our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.

Inherent
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our system of internal control over financial reporting was designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement
preparation and presentation. Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and fraud. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and
the benefits of controls must be considered relative to

##### Index to Financial Statements

their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control
issues within the company have been detected, even with respect to those systems of internal control that are determined to be effective. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that
breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in
achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of these
inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Our system contains self monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are
identified.

Audit Committee Oversight

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which is comprised solely of independent directors, has oversight responsibility for our financial reporting process and the audits of our consolidated financial statements and internal control
over financial reporting. The Audit Committee meets regularly with management and with our internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm (collectively, the accountants) to review matters related to the quality and
integrity of our financial reporting, internal control over financial reporting (including compliance matters related to our Code of Personal and Business Conduct and Ethics), and the nature, extent, and results of internal and external audits. Our
accountants have full and free access and report directly to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee recommended, and the Board of Directors approved, that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Macrovision Corporation:

We have audited managements assessment, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial
Reporting, that Macrovision Corporation (Macrovision) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Macrovisions management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control
over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on managements assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of Macrovisions internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial
reporting, evaluating managements assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial
reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not
prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, managements assessment that Macrovision maintained effective internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by COSO. Also, in our opinion, Macrovision maintained, in all material
respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets
of Macrovision Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 2005; and our report dated March 2, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

The information
required by this item is incorporated by reference from the information under the sections Information About Directors, Information About our Executive Officers and Proposal 1: Election of Directors, to be
contained in our proxy statement, which will be filed with the SEC in connection with the solicitation of proxies for our 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on April 27, 2006 (the 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders).

In February 2004, we adopted a code of conduct and ethics applicable to all of our directors and employees, including the principal

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Macrovision Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets of Macrovision Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for
each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Macrovision Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have
also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting of Macrovision Corporation as of December 31, 2005, based on
criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 2, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on managements
assessment of, and the effective operation of, internal control over financial reporting.

MACROVISION CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003

(1) The
Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company

Macrovision Corporation (the Company), a Delaware corporation founded in 1983, provides digital lifecycle value management solutions that enable the delivery and enhanced use of software and content. The
Companys value management solutions include anti-piracy and content protection technologies and services, digital rights management, embedded licensing technologies, usage monitoring for enterprises, and a host of related technologies and
services from installation to update to back-office entitlement management. The Company markets the FLEXnet licensing platform and the InstallShield suite of software installation, repackaging, and update solutions. The Company also operates
Trymedia Systems, the worlds largest distribution network for downloadable PC games. The Companys customers consist of entertainment producers such as motion picture studios and music labels, software publishers, hardware manufacturers,
consumer electronic firms, personal computer manufacturers, digital set-top box manufacturers, digital pay-per-view and video-on-demand network operators and enterprise information technology organizations.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Macrovision Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported results of operations during the reporting period.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, investments, goodwill and other intangible assets, long-lived assets and income taxes. Actual results could
differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities from date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash
equivalents consist of cash on deposit with banks, money market funds, and US municipal securities. All other liquid investments with maturities over three months and less than 12 months are classified as short-term investments. Short-term
investments consist primarily of US government & agencies, US municipal securities, auction rate securities, and corporate debt and equity securities. All marketable securities with maturities over one year or which the Companys
intent is to retain for the long-term are classified as long-term marketable investment securities.

The Company accounts for its publicly
traded investments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities and complies with the disclosure provisions of Emerging Issues Task
Force (EITF) 03-01, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. Management determines the appropriate classification of investment securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such
designation as of

each balance sheet date. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, all investment securities were designated as available-for-sale.
Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices, with unrealized gains and losses, reported in comprehensive income, as a separate component of stockholders equity.

Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary for available-for-sale securities are reported in other income or
expense as incurred. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on securities classified as available-for-sale are also included in other income.

The following is a summary of available-for-sale securities (in thousands) as of December 31, 2005:

Market values were determined for each individual security in the investment portfolio. The
declines in value of these investments are primarily related to changes in interest rates and are considered to be temporary in nature.

As
of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the unrealized (loss) gain, net of taxes, was $(419,000) and $212,000, respectively.

As of
December 31, 2005, the weighted average contractual maturity for debt securities was approximately 7 months.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible trade receivables. The Company
reviews its trade receivables by aging category to identify significant customers with known disputes or collection issues. For accounts not specifically identified, the Company provides reserves based on historical bad debt loss experience.

Property and Equipment

Property and
equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Computer equipment and software are
depreciated over three years. Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over five years. Leasehold improvements and assets recorded under capital leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the assets useful lives or lease
terms.

Patents

Patent costs are
amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the patent or 10 years.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents amounts received from customers under certain license, maintenance and service agreements for which the revenue earnings
process has not been completed.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and other unrealized gains and losses on marketable investment securities that have been excluded from the determination of net
income. The Company has reported the components of comprehensive income on its consolidated statements of stockholders equity.

Revenue Recognition

The Companys revenue consists of royalty fees on copy-protected products on a per unit basis, licenses for its content protection technologies, licenses for its software value management products, and related
maintenance and services revenues.

Royalty Revenues

Royalty revenue from the replication of videocassettes, DVDs, and CDs is recognized when realized or realizable and earned. The Company relies on royalty reports from customers and/or third parties as the basis for
revenue recognition. In the Companys DVD, videocassette, and PC games product lines, the Company has established significant experience with certain customers to reasonably estimate current period volume for purposes of making an accurate
revenue accrual. Accordingly, royalty revenue from these customers is recognized as earned, provided there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement and that collection of a fixed and determinable fee is considered probable. Revenue from PPV and
music technology products is recognized only as reported, due to the timing of receipt of reports in PPV, and the embryonic stage and volume volatility of the market for the Companys music technology products. Advanced royalty fees
attributable to minimum guaranteed quantities of licensed units or royalties based on a percentage of licensed product sales are deferred until earned. In the case of agreements with minimum guaranteed royalty payments with no specified volume,
revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement.

Technology Licensing Revenues

Technology licensing revenue, which applies principally to DVD and PC sub-assembly manufacturers; digital PPV, cable and satellite system operators and
digital set-top decoder manufacturers, is recognized upon establishment of persuasive evidence of an arrangement, performance of all significant obligations and determination that collection of a fixed and determinable license fee is considered
probable.

Entertainment Service Revenues

The Company provides peer to peer anti-piracy services and digital distribution services to entertainment industry customers. Revenue from such services is recognized as the services are performed. Entertainment
technologies service revenues are included in services revenue in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Software
Licensing Revenues

The Company sells software value management solutions through direct sales force and through resellers. The Company
recognizes revenue on software products in accordance with Statements of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-9 Modification of SOP 97-2. Revenue is recognized when all of the
following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery of the product has occurred; no significant obligations remain; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectibility is probable. Resellers are offered the right of
return on packaged products under certain policies and programs. The Company estimates and records reserves for product returns as an offset to revenue. The Company considers arrangements with payment terms extending beyond six months not to be
fixed or determinable and, accordingly, revenue is recognized as payments become due and payable from the customer under such arrangements. The Company assesses collectibility based on a number of factors, including the customers past payment
history and current creditworthiness. If collectibility is not considered probable, revenue is recognized when the fee is collected from the customer.

For license agreements in which non-standard customer acceptance clauses are a condition to earning the license fees, revenue is not recognized until acceptance occurs. For arrangements containing multiple elements,
such as software license fees, consulting services and maintenance, or multiple products and where vendor-specific

objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for all undelivered elements, the Company accounts for the delivered elements in accordance with
the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue. For arrangements containing multiple elements where VSOE of
fair value does not exist for all undelivered elements, all revenue is deferred until such time as VSOE of fair value for all undelivered elements is established or all elements of the arrangement have been delivered, or if the only undelivered
element is maintenance where VSOE of fair value exists, maintenance revenue is recognized pro rata over the maintenance contract period. The Company also enters into term license agreements in which the license fee is recognized ratably over the
term of the license period as term license agreements are generally one year.

Professional Services Revenues

The Company provides consulting and training services to its software vendor and enterprise customers. Revenue from such services is generally recognized
as the services are performed, except in instances where services are included in an arrangement accounted for under SOP 81-1. Professional services revenues are included in services revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Maintenance Revenues

Maintenance agreements generally call for the Company to provide technical support and unspecified software updates to customers. Maintenance revenue is deferred and recognized ratably over the maintenance contract period (generally one
year) and is included in services revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Cost of Revenues

License Fees

The Company has
agreements with certain licensed duplicators, DVD and CD replicators, DVD authoring facilities and CD mastering facilities utilized by customers of the Companys video copy protection and software copy protection technologies. The Company has
agreed to pay these licensees on a specified fixed service fee or on a per unit basis when utilizing the Companys copy protection technologies to help offset the cost of operating the Companys copy protection equipment and reporting
requirements of their contracts. Such amounts are charged to cost of revenues when incurred. Cost of revenueslicense fees also includes items such as product costs, videocassette copy protection processor costs, royalty expense and software
licensing fees. Cost of revenueslicense fees also includes outside legal costs of $1.7 million, 1.9 million and $692,000 in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, associated with litigation to enforce the Companys patents. Amortization
of patents is also included in cost of revenueslicense fees.

Service Fees

Cost of revenuesservice fees includes the cost of technical support for the Companys software and service products. This primarily consists of
customer support and professional services to software customers, as well as any third party consultants who provide such services on the Companys behalf. Costs associated with the Companys anti piracy and digital distribution of games
services include customer support, hosting, bandwidth and equipment maintenance costs.

Amortization of Intangibles from Acquisitions

Cost of revenuesamortization of intangibles from acquisitions includes amortization of certain intangibles from acquisitions.
This includes amortization from purchased existing technology, existing contracts, and patents and trademarks.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FASB) No. 44 (FIN 44), Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensationan Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25.
The Company also complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS No. 123), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 148 (SFAS No. 148), Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosurean amendment of FASB Statement No. 123. The Company accounts for equity instruments
issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in
Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.

If compensation cost for the Companys stock-based compensation plans had been
determined in a manner consistent with the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, the Companys net income and net income per share as reported would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below (in thousands, except

For purposes of computing pro forma net income, the Company estimates the fair value of option
grants and employee stock purchase plan purchase rights using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and
are fully transferable, characteristics not present in our option grants and employee stock purchase plan shares. Additionally, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility of the
stock price. Because our employee stock options and employee stock purchase plan shares have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair
value estimates, in managements opinion, the existing models do not provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its stock-based awards.

For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the Company gives consideration to historical volatility in market traded options and will continue to monitor these and other relevant factors used to measure expected
volatility for future option grants.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years
in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of
deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits of which future realization is uncertain.

Foreign Currency
Translation and Transactions

The functional currency for the Companys foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency. The
translation of foreign currency denominated financial statements into United States dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenues and expense accounts using an
average exchange rate for the respective periods. Adjustments resulting from such translation are included in comprehensive income. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions included in the consolidated statements of income were
not material in any of the periods presented.

Business and Concentration of Credit Risk and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company licenses its video copy protection, CD-ROM copy protection and electronic license management software to customers in the home videocassette,
DVD, cable and satellite pay-per-view, corporate communication markets, multimedia software markets and business software markets primarily in the United States, Europe, Japan, and the Far East. In 2005, 2004, and 2003, 18%, 30%, and 36%,
respectively, of the Companys business was attributed to the licensing of its video content protection technology through MPAA movie studios. Accordingly, the ability of the Company to grow its video copy protection operations has been

dependent on MPAA movie studios continued success in the production and distribution of movies utilizing the Companys technology. The Company
also licenses its digital PPV video content protection technologies to satellite and cable television operators and to the equipment manufacturers that supply the satellite and cable television industries. The Company licenses its CD-ROM copy
protection to publishers of software in the multimedia and educational software and rights management application markets. With the acquisition of Globetrotter Software, Inc. the Company began its business in electronic software license management
software. The Company licenses software technology solutions to software and hardware manufacturers and software asset management solutions to enterprise end-users. The Company also provides support, maintenance and consulting services. In addition,
43%, 42%, and 42% of the Companys sales in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively, are from export or foreign operations.

Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, trade accounts receivable and long-term investments. The Company places its cash and
cash equivalents and marketable securities in deposits and money market funds with various high credit quality institutions. The carrying value of the Companys financial instruments approximates fair market value due to the relatively short
maturities of those instruments. For the Companys investments in public companies (Digimarc), the carrying value is the market price of shares as represented on a national exchange at period end.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers as necessary. The Company did not have any customers that were equal to or greater than
10% of net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. One customer accounted for 10.2% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company did not have any customers that were
equal to or greater than 10% of accounts receivable.

Earnings Per Share

Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average
number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period except for periods of operating loss for which no common share equivalents are included because their effect would be anti-dilutive. Dilutive common equivalent
shares consist of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method.

Goodwill and Other Intangibles from Acquisitions

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,
goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently, if facts and circumstances warrant a review. The provisions of SFAS 142 require that a two-step test be performed to assess goodwill for impairment. First, the fair value of each
reporting unit is compared to its carrying value. If the fair

##### Index to Financial Statements

value exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is performed. The second step is performed if the carrying value exceeds
the fair value. The implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill must be determined and compared to the carrying value of the goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting units goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an
impairment loss equal to the difference will be recorded.

The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2005 and determined that the carrying amount of goodwill was not impaired.

SFAS 142 also requires that intangible
assets with definite lives be amortized over their estimated useful life and reviewed for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (SFAS 144), Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

The Company amortizes acquired intangible assets with definite lives. Purchased technology and
contracts are amortized over its useful lives, which are generally three to six years.

Software Development Costs

Capitalization of software development costs begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility, which is generally the completion of a working
prototype that has been certified as having no critical bugs and is a release candidate or when alternative future use exists. To date, software development costs incurred between completion of a working prototype and general availability of the
related product have not been material and have not been capitalized.

Research and Development

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. The Company had no capitalized costs as of December 31, 2005.

Advertising Expenses

The Company expenses all
advertising costs as incurred and classifies these costs under sales and marketing expense.

an additional contingent payment of up to $20.0 million may have been required to be made by the Company based on post-acquisition revenue performance
through June 30, 2005. Based upon the revenue results through June 30, 2005, the Company determined that no additional payment was required under the terms of the acquisition agreement. InstallShield shareholders have notified the Company
that they are disputing the Companys determination and are seeking the contingent payment in an amount exceeding $15 million (see Note 14). InstallShield was a leading provider of software installation tools. The acquisition of InstallShield
expanded the Companys product portfolio in the software value management category and enabled the Company to reach InstallShields large software developer customer base. InstallShield has been integrated into the Companys Software
Technologies Group. The accompanying consolidated statements of income include the results of operations of InstallShield since July 1, 2004, the effective date of the acquisition.

(5) Restructuring Charge

The Company has accounted for its restructuring charges and accruals in accordance with SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

In October 2005, the Companys board of directors approved a restructuring program, which included a worldwide workforce reduction and restructuring
of certain business functions. The workforce reduction was announced on November 3, 2005 and resulted in the termination of 80 employees. All affected employees were informed of their termination prior to December 31, 2005. The Company
recorded a charge of $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The liability for restructuring costs is recorded in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The following table summarizes the activity related to restructuring costs:



|                             |  |                 |        |   |          |   |     |       |  |   |        |

The majority of the remaining cash expenditures relating to workforce reductions are expected to
be paid over the next three months.

(6) Strategic Investments

As of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the adjusted cost of the Companys strategic investments totaled $11.9 million and $18.8 million, respectively. The Companys strategic investments
include public and non-public companies. As of December 31, 2005, the adjusted cost of the Companys strategic investments consisted solely of its investment in Digimarc, a publicly traded company. The Companys investments in
privately held companies had no carrying value as of December 31, 2005. The investment in Digimarc has been classified on the balance sheet as Long-term marketable investment securities.

During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company recorded other-than temporary impairment losses of $5.8 million and $5.3 million,
respectively, on its investment in Digimarc. There were no impairment charges related to the Companys strategic investments in public companies during the year ended December 31, 2003.

During the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded $180,000 and $4.8 million of other-than-temporary impairment losses relating
to its investment in iVast, a privately held company. The Company originally invested $5.0 million in iVast in 2001. As of December 31, 2004, the Companys investment in iVast had no remaining carrying value.

The Company received $174,000 and $1.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, in cash for its interest in
InterActual Technologies, the assets of which were acquired by a third party during the year ended December 31, 2004. In fiscal year 2001, this strategic investment had been fully impaired. Accordingly, during the years ended December 31,
2005 and 2004, the Company recorded gains on strategic investments of $174,000 and $1.2 million, respectively. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded a realized gain of $57,000 representing distributions
received in excess of its book value for its investment in NTRU Cryptosystems.

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company
recorded a realized gain of $395,000 from the surrender of the Companys stock in TTR, a public company strategic investment. See Note 3Business Combinations and Asset Purchases.

(7) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), or SFAS 123R, Share-Based Payment. This statement replaces SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and supersedes
Accounting Principles Boards Opinion No. 25 (ABP 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). SFAS 123R requires the measurement of all employee share-based payments to employees, including grants
of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in our consolidated statements of income. In April 2005, the SEC announced that the accounting provisions of SFAS 123R are to be applied in the
first quarter of the fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. As a result, the Company is now required to adopt SFAS 123R in the first quarter of 2006 and will recognize stock-based compensation expense using the modified prospective
method. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. See Note 1The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for information related to the
pro forma effects on the Companys reported net income and net earnings per share. The Company is evaluating the requirements under SFAS 123R and expects the adoption to have a significant adverse impact on its results of operations.

In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB No. 107). SAB
No. 107 provides guidance on the initial implementation of SFAS No. 123R. In particular, the statement includes guidance related to share based payment awards with non-employees, valuation methods and selecting underlying assumptions such
as expected volatility and expected term. It also gives guidance on the classification of compensation expense associated with SBP awards and accounting for the income tax effects of share based payment awards upon the adoption of SFAS
No. 123R.

In May 2005 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 154,
Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, which replaces Accounting Principles Board No. 20 (APB 20), Accounting Changes, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 3, Reporting Accounting
Changes in Interim Financial Statements. SFAS 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires
retrospective application to prior periods financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. APB 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized with a
cumulative effect adjustment in net income of the period of the change. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes made in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2005.

In June 2005, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-06, Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements
(EITF 05-06). EITF 05-06 provides guidance for determining the amortization period used for leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or purchased after the inception of a lease, collectively referred to as subsequently
acquired leasehold improvements. EITF 05-06 provides that the amortization period used for the subsequently acquired leasehold improvements to be the lesser of (a) the subsequently acquired leasehold improvements useful lives, or
(b) a period that reflects renewals that are reasonably assured upon the acquisition or the purchase. EITF 05-06 is effective on a prospective basis for subsequently acquired leasehold improvements purchased or acquired in periods beginning
after the date of the FASBs ratification, which was on June 29, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF 05-06 to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.

(8) Transactions with Related Parties

In January
2000, the Company invested $4.0 million to acquire a minority interest in TTR, a provider of proprietary digital anti-piracy technologies and products. In May 2003, the Company acquired patents and other assets of TTR for approximately $5.1 million
and the surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock, with a fair value of $602,000 (See Note 3-Business Combinations and Asset Purchases).

(9) Employee and Director Stock Plans

Stock Options

Currently, the Company
grants options from the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (2000 Plan) and the 1996 Directors Stock Option Plan (the Directors Plan). The 2000 Equity Incentive Plan succeeded the 1996 Equity Incentive Plan (1996 Plan) in
August 2000. The exercise price of the options that are issued is equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

As of December 31, 2005, the Company had 13.6 million shares reserved and 659,000 shares remained available for issuance under the 2000 Plan and 1999 Plan. The 2000 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation
rights, and restricted stock awards by the Company to employees, officers, directors, consultants, independent contractors, and advisers of the Company. The 2000 Plan permits the grant of either incentive or nonqualified stock options at the then
current market price. Option vesting periods are generally three years under the 2000 Plan. Option grants have terms ranging from five to ten years.

As of December 31, 2005, the Company had 1.0 million shares reserved under the Directors Plan and 395,000 shares remained available for issuance. The Directors Plan provides for the grant of stock options to
non-employee directors of the Company. The Directors Plan permits the grant of nonqualified stock options at the then current market price. Option vesting periods are generally one year under the Directors Plan. Option grants have terms ranging from
five to ten years.

In connection with an acquisition in 2000, the Company recorded deferred stock-based compensation of approximately
$37.9 million, for the difference between the exercise price and the fair value of the stock underlying the options. This amount was amortized over the vesting period of the individual options, generally four years, and was fully amortized as of
March 31, 2004. Amortization expenses recognized in 2005, 2004 and 2003 was $0, $185,000 and $2.7 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock

In November 2005, the Companys board of directors approved the issuance of 340,975 shares of
restricted stock, at a fair value of $15.61 per share, to certain executives and key employees under the 2000 Plan. The restricted stock vests over four years and was considered outstanding at the time of the issuance, as the stockholders are
entitled to voting rights. The Company recorded $5.3 million of deferred compensation at the issuance date and has been included in stockholders equity as contra-equity. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company charged $221,000
to expense associated with restricted stock.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Companys 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP) allows eligible employee participants to purchase shares of the Companys
common stock at a discount through payroll deductions. The ESPP consists of twenty-four-month offering periods with four six-month purchase periods in each offering period. Employees purchase shares in each purchase period at 85% of the market value
of the Companys common stock at either the beginning of the offering period or the end of the purchase period, whichever price is lower. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had reserved 4.3 million shares of common stock for
issuance under the ESPP and 3.0 million shares remained available for future issuance.

Offer to Exchange Outstanding Stock Options to Purchase Common Stock

On May 27, 2003, the Companys stockholders approved a program to permit the exchange stock options having an exercise price greater than $28.00
for a lesser number of new options to be granted at least six months and one day from the cancellation of the surrendered options (the Option Exchange Program).

On August 20, 2003, the Company implemented the Option Exchange Program by filing a Tender Offer Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Option Exchange Program was offered from August 20, 2003 to September 19, 2003. On September 19, 2003, pursuant to the Option Exchange Program, the Company accepted for cancellation, options to purchase 969,215
shares of common stock. On March 22, 2004, employees who continued employment with the Company were granted new options to purchase 319,749 shares of common stock in exchange for such cancelled options. Key executive officers and directors of
the Company were not eligible to participate in the Option Exchange Program.

The Company designed the Option Exchange Program so that the
Company did not need to record compensation expense from the issuance of new stock options under current generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

(10) Stock Repurchase Program

In May 2002, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for up to 5.0 million shares of the Companys common stock. Purchases of the stock may be made, from time-to-time, in the open market
at prevailing market prices, at the discretion of Company management. The Companys repurchases of shares of common stock have been recorded as treasury stock at cost and result in a reduction of stockholders equity. As of
December 31, 2005 and 2004, treasury stock consisted of 3.0 million shares of common stock that the Company had repurchased, with a cost basis of approximately $38.5 million. If the Company considers repurchasing the remaining
2.0 million shares under this program in the future, the Company would seek reapproval from the Board of Directors.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary
differences become deductible, as well as tax planning strategies.

Based on projections of future taxable income over the periods in which
the deferred tax assets are deductible and the history of the Companys profitability, management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of valuation allowances
as of December 31, 2005.

As of December 31, 2005, the Company has a valuation allowance of $10.0 million. Of the total valuation
allowance, $5.0 million is related to federal and state attributes acquired in certain acquisitions for which realization of the related deferred tax assets was determined not more likely than not to be realized due, in part, to potential
utilization limitations as a result of stock ownership changes. Of the remaining valuation allowance as of December 31, 2005, $3.6 million relates to deferred tax assets for capital loss carryforwards and $1.4 million relates to foreign tax
loss carryforwards that the Company determined that sufficient uncertainty existed regarding its ability to recognize these deferred tax assets. During the year ended December 31, 2005, the valuation allowance for capital loss carryforwards was
increased by $0.3 million. To the extent realization of the deferred tax assets related to certain acquisitions become probable, recognition of these acquired tax benefits would first reduce goodwill to zero, then reduce other non-current intangible
assets related to the acquisition to zero with the remaining benefit reported as a reduction to income tax expense. If the realization of the deferred tax assets not related to acquisitions become probable, the Company would recognize an income tax
benefit in the period such asset is more likely than not to be realized.

As of December 31, 2005, the Company has federal tax loss
carryforwards of approximately $22.9 million. The federal loss carryforwards will expire in 2012 through 2025. The Company has state net operating loss

carryforwards of approximately $18.7 million as of December 31, 2005. The state loss carryforwards will expire in 2007 through 2015. Utilization of net
operating loss carryforwards may be subject to limitations due to ownership changes and other limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. If such a limitation applies, the net operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards may expire before full utilization.

On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act (AJCA) was signed
into law. The AJCA introduced a limited time 85% dividends received deduction on the repatriation of certain foreign earnings. In the fourth quarter of 2005, Macrovisions foreign subsidiaries distributed $65 million to Macrovision Corporation.
The distribution increased the provision for income taxes by $2.3 million and income taxes payable by $4.1 million. Except for the items described previously, U.S. income taxes have not been provided for approximately $10.8 million of cumulative
undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries. Macrovision intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely in operations outside of the U.S.

The Companys federal tax return for tax year 2003 is under the Internal Revenue Service examination. The Company believes that adequate amounts of tax accruals have been provided based on currently available information.

(12) Commitments

Rent expense was $5.9 million, $5.4 million, and $3.8 million for the years ended
December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a 401(k) plan that allows eligible employees to contribute up to 100% of their compensation, which contribution was limited to $14,000 in
2005. Employee contributions vest immediately. The Company is not required to contribute to the 401(k) plan, but has made voluntary contributions. The Company made matching contributions to the 401(k) plan equal to 20% of each participating
employees contribution, up to a maximum annual matching contribution of $2,800, $2,600 and $2,400 in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. For employees 50 years of age or older, the contribution limit was $18,000 in 2005 and the Companys
maximum annual matching contribution was $3,600.

(14) Contingencies

The Company is involved in legal proceedings related to some of its intellectual property rights.

USPTO Interference
Proceedings Between Macrovision Corporation and InterTrust Technologies

The Company received notice on September 4, 2003 from the
United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) declaring an interference between the Companys U.S. Patent No. 5,845,281 (the 281 patent) together with two of its continuation applications, and a patent
application determined to be from InterTrust Technologies Corporation. On December 19, 2003, the Company received notice from the USPTO declaring an additional interference between two continuation applications related to the 281 patent
and four issued U.S. patents of InterTrust. The 281 patent and its continuation applications are in the field of digital rights management, and are not associated with any of the Companys existing copy protection businesses.

An interference is declared by the USPTO when two or more parties claim the same patentable invention. In the United States, the party who can prove
earliest inventorship is granted the patent. The Administrative Patent Judge (APJ) decided to proceed with the second interference first. In the second patent interference, the APJ issued a decision on April 11, 2005 that was
adverse to the Company. As a result of this decision, the Company may have to forfeit a portion of its United States patent claims. In addition, on September 13, 2005, the APJ granted InterTrusts motion regarding a claim that errors
constituting inequitable conduct were committed by the

Company during the original prosecution of the 281 patent. As a result of this decision, the Companys patent claims in the interferences are
rendered unenforceable. At this time, the Company is considering various options to appeal these decisions. In the first patent interference, a hearing on the priority phase of the interference was held on September 1, 2005. On
December 28, 2005, the APJ ruled in the Companys favor on the first set of claims. This ruling would assign the patent claims to the Company, but such claims are subject to enforceability limitations related to the inequitable conduct
decision. InterTrust has filed for a rehearing relating to the December 28, 2005 decision. At this time, the Company is considering various options to appeal these decisions.

The Company has a family of international patents and patent applications related to the U.S. cases involved in the interference. The U.S. patent
interference affects only U.S. patents and U.S. pending patent applications. The international cases are proceeding to grant in Europe and Japan. A corresponding patent has already been issued in Sweden (Patent No. 9500355) and a European
patent application was recently indicated by the Examiner as allowable and is expected to be granted in the first quarter of 2006. These international cases have the benefit of the February 1, 1995 priority date and broad patent claim coverage.

BIS Advanced Software Systems, Ltd. vs. InstallShield Software Corporation et. al.

On September 9, 2004, BIS Advanced Software Systems, Ltd. filed a patent infringement lawsuit against a small group of companies, including
InstallShield. The Company acquired the operations and certain assets of InstallShield on July 1, 2004. InstallShield was served with the complaint on September 27, 2004. The BIS patent (6,401,239) allegedly relates to a vBuild
product that InstallShield licensed from Red Bend Software and sold as an add-on product. InstallShield discontinued sales of this product in early 2004 and the patent does not appear to implicate any current core InstallShield products. Further,
Red Bend Software has agreed to indemnify InstallShield and defend the suit for Macrovision. The Company is monitoring the progress of the suit and the actions taken by Red Bend on the Companys behalf.

Macrovision Corporation. vs. Sima Products Corporation, and Interburn Enterprises, Inc.

On June 14, 2005, the Company filed a lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against Sima Products Corporation and Interburn Enterprises, Inc.,
alleging that both companies manufacture, distribute or sell products that infringe the Companys patented copy protection technology and also violate the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998. The patents involved are: United States
Patent No. 4,631,603 entitled Method and apparatus for processing a video signal so as to prohibit the making of acceptable videotape recordings thereof, and U.S. Patent No. 4,819,098 entitled Method and apparatus for
clustering modifications made to a video signal to inhibit the making of acceptable videotape recordings. Interburn has entered into a stipulated judgment where they agreed not to further distribute their products. The Companys case
against Sima is proceeding.

InstallShield Software Corporation Liquidating Trust vs. Macrovision

On October 27, 2005, the Company received notice of an arbitration proceeding filed by InstallShield Software Corporation Liquidating Trust (the
Trust.) The Trust is demanding arbitration of certain disputes between the Trust and the Company pursuant to Asset Purchase Agreement dated June 16, 2004 by and among InstallShield Software Corporation, the Company, Macrovision
Europe Limited, and Macrovision International Holding L.P. (the Agreement). Under the Agreement, the Company may have been required to make an additional contingent payment of up to $20 million based on post-acquisition revenue
performance through June 30, 2005. Based upon the revenue results through June 30, 2005, the Company concluded that no additional payment was required under the terms of the Agreement. The Trust alleges that the post-acquisition revenue
performance targets were not reached due to the Companys conduct in violation of the Agreement, and therefore is seeking the contingent payment in an amount exceeding $15 million. The Company denies these allegations and intends to vigorously
defend itself in the arbitration proceeding.

As of December 31, 2005, for all the abovementioned matters, it was not possible to estimate the
liability, if any, in connection with the pending matters. Accordingly, no accruals for these contingencies have been recorded.

From time
to time, the Company has been involved in other disputes and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In managements opinion, none of these other disputes and legal actions is expected to have a material impact on its
consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flow.

(15) Subsequent Event

In February 2006, the Company acquired eMeta Corporation (eMeta) for cash consideration of $35.0 million. eMeta is a leading provider of
software solutions that enable companies to control and sell digital goods and services online. eMeta is a privately held company based in New York. The acquisition of eMeta extends the Companys reach from physical distribution into the online
digital distribution segment.

a charge of $2.5 million during 2005.

tax charges arising from the distribution of foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
