CAUTIONARY STATEMENT



All statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (Form 10-K), other than statements or
characterizations of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates, approximations and projections about our industry and business, managements beliefs, and
certain assumptions made by us, all of which are subject to change. We often use certain words and their derivatives such as anticipate, expect, intend, plan, predict, believe,
estimate, may, will, should, would, could, potential, continue, ongoing, and similar expressions in our forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited
to, those discussed in the section entitled Risk Factors under Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report. We assume no obligation to revise or
update any forward-looking statement for any reason, except as otherwise required by law.



Forward-looking statements are not the only statements you should regard with caution. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements required us to make judgments with respect to the methodologies we
selected to calculate the adjustments contained in the financial statements, as well as estimates and assumptions regarding the application of those methodologies. These judgments, estimates and assumptions, which are based on factors that we
believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, affected, among other things, the amounts of additional deferred stock-based compensation and additional stock-based compensation expense that we recorded. The application of alternative
methodologies, estimates and assumptions could have resulted in materially different amounts.



EXPLANATORY NOTE



In this Annual Report on Form 10-K (Form 10-K) for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, we are restating our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of April 30, 2005 and
for the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004. The restatement includes adjustments arising from an internal review of our historical financial statements, as well as the determinations of an independent committee of our Board of Directors,
assisted by independent legal counsel and accounting experts, formed in July 2006 to conduct an internal investigation into our historical stock option granting practices that concluded that our historical measurement dates could not be relied upon.
We also recorded adjustments affecting our previously-reported financial statements for fiscal years 2000 through 2003, the effects of which are summarized in cumulative adjustments to our additional paid in capital, deferred stock-based
compensation and accumulated deficit accounts as of April 30, 2003.

PART I.



Item 1. Business



Blue Coat® Systems, Inc., also referred to in this report as
we or us, was incorporated in Delaware on March 16, 1996 as CacheFlow, Inc. On August 21, 2002, we changed our name to Blue Coat Systems, Inc., and the ticker symbol for our common stock was changed from CFLO to
BCSI.



On September 16, 2002, we filed an amendment to our
Certificate of Incorporation, implementing a one-for-five reverse split of our outstanding common stock. Our common stock began trading under the split adjustment at the opening of the Nasdaq Stock Market on September 16, 2002. Our number of
authorized shares of common stock and preferred stock, however, remains at 200 million and 10 million, respectively. All share and per share amounts in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto, reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented.



Blue Coat sells a family of appliances and client-based solutions (deployed in branch offices, Internet gateways, end points, and data centers) that provide intelligent points of policy-based control enabling
information technology (IT) organizations to improve security and accelerate performance for all users and applications. Our products are delivered to customers through a worldwide sales organization that includes direct sales,
distributors, and resellers in more than 50 countries worldwide. Blue Coat customers are backed by a worldwide service and support organization that provides a broad range of service options, including 24x7 technical support and product
education.



Overview



Todays enterprise networks are becoming more centralized and
decentralized at the same time. Corporate data centers, servers, and critical business productivity applications are becoming centralized within the corporate headquarters. Likewise, the corporate gateway to the public Internet is also usually
centralized within headquarters. At the same time, employees are increasingly decentralized. More than an estimated 80% of employees in large enterprises work outside the corporate headquarters. They are typically located in branch and remote
offices and are connected to corporate headquarters via the companys wide-area network (WAN). In addition, many remote and mobile employees rely on the Internet and access corporate resources through the companys Internet
gateway.



These changes create three distinct challenges for IT
departments within enterprise organizations:



| |  |  | SecurityIT must make the Web safe for business, blocking Internet security threats and inappropriate content, while granting authorized users access to
necessary applications and content.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | PerformanceIT must strive to optimize performance of critical business applications, such as e-mail, file systems, multimedia, and Web applications (including
encrypted Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) applications), which are increasingly being delivered over the WAN to remote users in branch offices, as well as mobile users.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ControlThe requirements above cannot be effectively addressed without granular visibility and policy-based control capabilities. Control is necessary to
ensure that the business is providing superior security and performance for all users and critical applications.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Web Security



During the past several years, our primary business focus has been to make the Web safe for business. We have grown net revenue and market share by
positioning our family of appliances as a solution for Web security at the customers Internet gateway. The performance of our proxy appliances has enabled us to establish a leadership position in the secure content market worldwide.

One of the key strengths of our appliances is the use of our advanced proxy technology. In this context,
Blue Coat proxy appliances act as a middleman between users and various applications and/or Internet content. As such, an appliance becomes a termination point between users and applications. In other words, users only communicate with the proxy
appliance on one side of the transaction, and applications only communicate with the proxy appliance on the other side of the transaction. They are two separate connections, both controlled and managed by the proxy appliance. Consequently, no
content can get past the proxy without explicit permission. Permissions are defined as granular policies created by the IT organization and automatically enforced by the appliance. This capability makes our proxy appliances well-suited for Web
security, protecting businesses from many of the dangers of the Internet.



Our family of appliances provides customers with several important security features, including:



| |  |  | Web content filteringthe ability to allow or block specific types of Web content from entering the corporate network. Web content filtering helps prevent
potential security breaches and prevents employees from viewing inappropriate content.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Anti-virus (AV) protectionthe ability to automatically scan and block viruses and other potentially malicious traffic with third party anti-virus
products.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Spyware preventionthe ability to prevent installation of spyware on user desktops, which is a major cause of performance problems and security
vulnerabilities.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Instant messaging (IM) and Skype controlthe ability to prevent these types of peer-to-peer (P2P) applications from creating security
holes in the network and creating an opportunity for leakage of sensitive, confidential information.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Rogue streaming media applicationsthe ability to limit or block the use by employees of unsanctioned P2P applications which often contain viruses and degrade
network performance.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | SSL threat protectionthe ability to identify and block threats presented by the SSL protocol, which improves security by encrypting confidential data
traversing the Internet, but also provides a conduit for hidden viruses, worms, and other threats.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | User authenticationthe ability to automatically validate a user who requests access to secure corporate content. Blue Coat appliances interface with virtually
all leading authentication systems (RADIUS, LDAP, Active Directory, etc.).
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



With the acquisition of Permeo Technologies, Inc. (Permeo) in March 2006, we now offer an SSL-VPN appliance that provides secure on-demand access for remote users. Permeos core technology will also
be leveraged across other Blue Coat products.



Wide Area Network
Application Delivery



Having established a leadership
position by focusing primarily on Web security, we are now extending our market focus to address another key IT requirement for the distributed enterprise; specifically, the need to improve performance of critical business applications delivered
across the WAN to remote users.



As noted earlier, the
centralization of applications combined with the decentralization of employees has resulted in an exponential increase in the amount of traffic traversing corporate WAN links. These links tend to be costly and provide limited bandwidth. Inevitably,
traffic slows to a crawl and the productivity of remote employees suffers. IT organizations now recognize this as a significant and growing issue. It has created a burgeoning market that various industry analysts refer to as Application
Acceleration or WAN Optimization.



We believe
we are well positioned to address this significant market opportunity because the same set of proxy appliances that delivers Web security features also delivers application acceleration capabilities. Our

MACH5 (Multiprotocol Accelerated Caching Hierarchy) technology is a standard feature integrated into all of our appliances and delivers the following
performance enhancement features:



| |  |  | Bandwidth managementthe ability to assign a guaranteed level of bandwidth to specific users and applications and prioritize delivery of that traffic over the
WAN.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Protocol optimizationa technique used to create parallel user-application communications by minimizing the number of time-consuming round trips across the WAN
often required between users and certain chatty applications.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Object cachingstatic, reusable objects and content are stored in the local appliance cache, thus eliminating the need to repeatedly transfer across the WAN.
This technique is particularly valuable for delivering streaming video.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Byte cachingobserves repetitive patterns in WAN traffic and substitutes lightweight tokens to represent bulky, repetitive traffic, thus conserving bandwidth
and accelerating delivery.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Compressiona technique that uses an industry standard algorithm to remove extraneous information for the application payload, thus reducing the amount of data
sent across the WAN link.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



These techniques
are applied by our appliances to improve the performance of virtually all business applications delivered across the WAN. MACH5 technology also improves the performance of encrypted SSL applications, as well as third party applications hosted on the
Internet.



In this new WAN optimization market, our appliances
are deployed in the data centers and in branch or remote offices, thus creating the opportunity for more broadly deployed solutions across the distributed enterprise.



Other Market Trends



The increase in Internet gateways and the resulting greater need for control are expected to have a positive impact on our future as follows:



| |  |  | More Internet gatewaysThe growing amount of WAN traffic is also due to the fact that most businesses still have a centralized Internet gateway, which means
that all Internet traffic is backhauled from the central gateway across WAN links to remote users. As the percentage of Internet traffic continues to increase, distributed enterprises are expected to add more remote Internet gateways to relieve the
traffic burden on the WAN. Some industry analysts expect 50% of enterprises to adopt this strategy by 2009. If this occurs, we expect to benefit since it will create more opportunities for our proxy appliances to provide Web security at these new
gateways.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Greater need for controlAs enterprises continue to become more distributed, IT organizations need to find a way to automate security and performance controls
in alignment with business processes and priorities. Our appliances provide IT organizations with granular controls that allow them to create and enforce automated security and performance policies based on the individual user, application, time of
day, and context of the request.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Products



Our appliances are powered by our proprietary SGOS operating system, a
lightweight, purpose-built operating system specifically designed to support the security, acceleration, and policy control features discussed above. Our family of appliances, based on our ProxySG, and client-based solutions are available in
a broad range of configurations. Information regarding appliance configuration and security policies is created and managed from a single, secure, Web-based interface.

ProxySG Appliances



The ProxySGfamily of proxy appliances leverages existing authentication systems to enable granular policy
enforcement down to the individual user. Our end-to-end product portfolio includes powerful reporting, policy and configuration management softwaredelivering a scalable proxy system architecture for centralized or distributed enterprise
environments. Delivered as a rack mountable appliance for simple installation and management, these ICSA-certified solutions easily integrate with existing security and network infrastructure and serve as the foundation for all of our client-based
solutions.



ProxyAV Appliances



The ProxyAV family of Web anti-virus appliances enables organizations
to scan for viruses, worms, spyware and Trojans at the Internet gateway that could otherwise enter through Web-based backdoors. These Web-based backdoors include personal Web email accounts, Web spam or email spam (that unknowingly activates Trojan
downloads), and browser-based file downloads that bypass existing virus scanning defenses. The ProxyAV, implemented in combination with the ProxySG, provides scalability of virus scanning, plus comprehensive visibility and control of
enterprise Web communications. The ProxyAVleverages virus scanning engines from such vendors as Sophos, McAfee, Symantec, Panda, and Kaspersky Lab. Our ProxyAV appliances are comprised of a specialized hardware platform.



Blue Coat RA Appliances



Blue Coat RA appliances allow organizations to extend application
connectivity with integrated endpoint security to remote employees, partners, and customers for both corporate-owned and unmanaged devices. The Blue Coat RA appliances leverage application-independent proxy architecture and patent-pending connector
technology to provide:



| |  |  | On-demand access to Web and non-Web applications without the installation of virtual private network (VPN) client software.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Comprehensive support for unmanaged endpoints without requiring local administrative rights and including features to block inadvertent or malicious information
leakage.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Integrated endpoint security services, such as host integrity checking and automatic spyware identification and suppression.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Blue Coat WebFilter



Blue Coat WebFilter is a web filtering solution running on our
ProxySG that helps enterprises and service providers protect their users and networks from Internet threats and abuse, including spyware, phishing attacks, P2P traffic, IM and streaming traffic, adult content, and many others. The WebFilter
solution includes over fifteen million website ratings, representing billions of Web pages, organized into relevant and useful categories. The WebFilter database is driven by the actual web usage patterns of customers, which drives the relevance and
accuracy of its contents. We estimate that WebFilter has an average 94% coverage rate of requested sites in enterprise deployments, coupled with an extremely low rate of false positives.



To address the small percentage of sites not already classified in
the on-proxy WebFilter database, each Blue Coat WebFilter license also includes Dynamic Real-Time Rating (DRTRTM), a
unique, patented technology that can categorize web sites as a user attempts to access them.



In addition to WebFilter, the ProxySG appliances also support third party content filtering software, including Smart Filter, Webwasher, SurfControl, and Websense.

Blue Coat Reporter



Blue Coat Reporter leverages a rich set of transaction log data captured by the appliances to produce virtually any type of
customized report relating to performance and security of policy-based, user-application sessions across the distributed enterprise.



Blue Coat Director



Blue Coat Director enables policy, configuration, and device management for our appliances. Built as a management appliance, Director reduces management
costs and complexity by providing centralized management of distributed and remote Blue Coat appliances.



Our Key Strategies



Our
objective is to be the leading provider of proxy appliances to enable secure content and application delivery. Key elements of our strategy include the following:



| |  |  | Focus on the Mid/Large Enterprise Market Segment. We are focused on developing proxy appliances for mid-to-large size enterprises, which might include
organizations with several thousand users to organizations with tens-of-thousand of users. We believe this focus helps us to rapidly identify and target attractive market opportunities. We are directing our product development, marketing and sales
activities at the enterprise market segment, which we believe represents the most attractive opportunity based on a demonstrated need for proxy appliances, the opportunity to sell to numerous customers, and the level of existing competition.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Enhance the Capabilities of our ProxySG Appliance. We intend to use our technological expertise to keep pace with the needs of the evolving
proxy appliance and application delivery markets. We plan to continue to develop both the hardware and operating system of our solution to gain and maintain a competitive advantage and expand the market for our products. Our additional efforts to
enhance the capabilities of our ProxySG appliances include adding more functionality to accelerate, secure, and control new emerging applications, enhancing security for emerging Web threats and increasing the price performance of our
appliances.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Continue to Leverage Indirect Distribution Channels. We intend to focus our product distribution strategy around the use of distributors and resellers
rather than a direct sales force. Enterprises have historically purchased security products from distributors and resellers, and we believe that we can improve our sales coverage and sales force productivity through continued expansion of
distributors and resellers as distribution channels.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Sales and Marketing



We utilize a combination
of our territory-based sales teams, resellers and distributors, as appropriate, for each of our target markets. We support our distribution channels with systems engineers and customer support personnel that provide technical service and support to
our customers. We have entered into agreements with resellers and distributors such as Westcon, InTechnology, Nissho Electronics, Alternative Technologies and others.



Our marketing efforts focus on increasing market awareness, creating demand for our products and technology, and promoting
the Blue Coat brand. We have a number of marketing programs to support the sale and distribution of our products and to inform existing and potential customers within our target market segments about the capabilities and benefits of our products.
Our marketing efforts include participation in industry tradeshows, informational seminars, preparation of competitive analyses, sales training, maintenance of our Web site, advertising and public relations.

Research and Development



We believe that strong product development capabilities are essential to our continued success and growth. Our current research and development efforts
are primarily focused on enhancing the capabilities of our current proxy appliances by adding new features and strengthening existing features.



Research and development expense was 26.8 million, $17.9 million and $13.5 million for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and
2004, respectively, including stock-based compensation expense of $0.9 million, $1.5 million, and $1.9 million, respectively. As discussed in Note 3, Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements, of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements, previously reported stock-based compensation expense was amended as part of our restatement.



Our research and development team consists of engineers with extensive backgrounds in operating systems, algorithms, computer science, streaming media and
network engineering. We believe that the experience and capabilities of our research and development professionals represents a competitive advantage for us. We also work closely with our customers in developing and enhancing our products.



The market for proxy appliances is evolving rapidly. In order
to stay competitive, we must make significant investments in research and development based on what we perceive to be the direction of the market. We currently spend a significant amount of our resources on research and development projects and plan
to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Current research and development projects will enhance our position in the marketplace only if the proxy appliance market matures as we anticipate. Failure on our part to anticipate the direction of
the market and develop products that meet those emerging needs will seriously impair our business, financial condition, and results of operations.



We expect that most of the enhancements to our existing and future products will be accomplished by internal development. However, we currently license
some technologies and will continue to evaluate externally developed solutions for integration into our products.



Manufacturing



We currently outsource the manufacturing of our ProxySG and ProxyAV appliances. This approach allows us to reduce our investment in
manufacturing capital and to take advantage of the expertise of our vendors. Our internal manufacturing operations consist primarily of prototype development, materials planning and procurement. Our standard parts and components are generally
available from more than one vendor, while our custom parts are usually single sourced. We typically obtain these components through purchase orders and currently do not have contractual relationships or guaranteed supply arrangements with these
suppliers. If one of these vendors ceased to provide us with necessary parts and components, we would likely encounter delays in product production as we make the transition to another vendor, which could seriously harm our business. Furthermore, if
actual orders do not match our forecasts, as we have experienced in the past, we may have excess or insufficient inventory of some materials and components or we could incur cancellation charges or penalties, which would increase our costs or
prevent or delay product shipments and could seriously harm our business.



Backlog



We typically ship products shortly
after receipt of an order. Our backlog is comprised of deferred revenue and accepted product orders that have not shipped. Deferred revenue is derived from products that have shipped to distributors but have not yet shipped to end customers, product
shipments that do not yet qualify as revenue in accordance with our revenue recognition policy, and the unearned portion of service contracts. Aggregate backlog at April 30, 2006 and April 30, 2005 was approximately $34.7 million and $24.6
million, respectively. We do not believe that backlog as of any particular date is indicative of future results.

Competition



The market for proxy appliances is intensely competitive, evolving and subject to rapid technological change. Primary competitive factors that have
typically affected our market include product characteristics such as reliability, scalability and ease of use, as well as price and customer support. The intensity of this competition is expected to increase in the future. Increased competition is
likely to result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any one of which could seriously harm our business. We may not be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors and we cannot be certain that
competitive pressures we face will not seriously harm our business. Our competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of the products and services they offer. We encounter competition from a variety of companies, including Cisco Systems,
Network Appliance (prior to our acquisition of certain assets of their NetCache business in September 2006), Microsoft and others. In addition, we expect additional competition from other established and emerging companies as the market for proxy appliances continues to develop and expand.



Many of our current and potential competitors have longer
operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, significantly greater name recognition and a larger installed base of customers than we do. In addition, many of our competitors have well-established
relationships with our current and potential customers and have extensive knowledge of our industry. As a result, our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, or to devote
greater resources to the development, marketing, promotion and sale of their products than we can. Current and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the
market acceptance of their products. In addition, our competitors may be able to replicate our products, make more attractive offers to existing and potential employees and strategic partners, more quickly develop new products or enhance existing
products and services, or bundle proxy appliances in a manner that we cannot. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. We also expect that competition
will increase as a result of industry consolidation.



Intellectual Property
and Other Proprietary Rights



We depend significantly on
our ability to develop and maintain the proprietary aspects of our technology. To protect our proprietary technology, we rely primarily on a combination of contractual provisions, confidentiality procedures, trade secrets, copyright and trademark
laws and patents. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is
difficult. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting our proprietary rights may not be adequate and our competitors may
independently develop similar technology, duplicate our products or design around our patents that may be issued to us or our other intellectual property.



We presently have several issued patents and pending U.S. patent applications. There can be no assurance that we will be able to detect any infringement
or, if infringement is detected, that patents issued will be enforceable or that any damages awarded to us will be sufficient to adequately compensate us.



There can be no assurance or guarantee that any products, services or technologies that we are presently developing, or will develop in the future, will
result in intellectual property that is protectable under law, whether in the United States or a foreign jurisdiction, that this intellectual property will produce competitive advantage for us, or that the intellectual property of competitors will
not restrict our freedom to operate or put us at a competitive disadvantage.



There has been a substantial amount of litigation in the technology industry regarding intellectual property rights and we recently settled a lawsuit, which alleged infringement of certain United States patents by us.
Third parties may claim that we, or our current or potential future products, infringe their intellectual property. We



12



---

##### Table of Contents

expect that companies in the Internet and networking industries will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors
in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter
into royalty or licensing agreements. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all, which could seriously harm our business.



Acquisitions



On March 3, 2006, we completed the acquisition of Permeo, Inc. (Permeo). The purchase price of $45.3 million consisted of $14.9 million
in cash consideration, 1.3 million shares of our common stock valued at $28.7 million, $1.0 million in estimated direct transaction costs, $0.9 million of which had been paid as of April 30, 2006, and Permeo stock options assumed by us
valued at $0.6 million.



On November 16, 2004, we
completed the acquisition of Cerberian, Inc. (Cerberian). The purchase price of $19.3 million consisted of 0.8 million shares of Blue Coat common stock valued at $17.4 million, $0.4 million in direct transaction costs, Cerberian
options assumed by Blue Coat valued at $0.5 million and the fair value of promissory notes from Cerberian to Blue Coat of $1.0 million.



On November 14, 2003, we completed the acquisition of Ositis Software, Inc. (Ositis). The purchase price of $8.7 million consisted of
0.4 million shares of Blue Coat common stock valued at $6.7 million, $1.1 million in cash, $0.9 million in direct transaction costs, and Ositis warrants assumed by the Company valued at $43,000.



Employees



As of December 31, 2006, we had a total of 572 employees, comprised of 187 in research and development, 180 in sales,
18 in marketing, 98 in customer support, 26 in manufacturing and 63 in general and administrative. Of these employees, 442 were located in North America and 130 were located in various other international locations. As of April 30, 2006, we had
a total of 524 employees, comprised of 176 in research and development, 166 in sales, 23 in marketing, 76 in customer support, 18 in manufacturing and 65 in general and administrative. Of these employees, 377 were located in North America and 147
were located in various other international locations. None of our employees are represented by collective bargaining agreements, nor have we experienced any work stoppages. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.



Our future operating results depend significantly upon the continued service
of our senior management, and key technical and sales personnel, most of whom are not bound by an employment agreement. Competition for these personnel is intense, and we may not be able to retain them in the future. Our future success also depends
upon our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified individuals. We may experience difficulties managing our financial and operating performance if we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel.

Item 1A. Risk Factors



FACTORS AFFECTING
FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS



All statements included in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K (Form 10-K), other than statements or characterizations of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates, approximations
and projections about our industry and business, managements beliefs, and certain assumptions made by us, all of which are subject to change. We often use certain words and their derivatives such as anticipate, expect,
intend, plan, predict, believe, estimate, may, will, should, would, could, potential, continue,
ongoing, and similar expressions in our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking
statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled Risk Factors under Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date of this Annual Report. We assume no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement for any reason, except as otherwise required by law.



Forward-looking statements are not the only statements you should regard with caution. The preparation of our
consolidated financial statements required us to make judgments with respect to the methodologies we selected to calculate the adjustments contained in the financial statements, as well as estimates and assumptions regarding the application of those
methodologies. These judgments, estimates and assumptions, which are based on factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, affected, among other things, the amounts of additional deferred stock-based compensation and additional
stock-based compensation expense that we recorded. The application of alternative methodologies, estimates and assumptions could have resulted in materially different amounts.



Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed by any of the following risks. In
addition, the trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of the following risks.



The matters relating to the investigation by the Special Committee of the Board of Directors and the restatement of our consolidated financial statements may result in additional litigation and governmental
enforcement actions.



On July 14, 2006, we
announced that we were conducting a voluntary review of our historical practices in granting stock options and that our Board of Directors had appointed a special committee of independent directors (the Special Committee) to conduct this
review. On September 11, 2006, we announced that we had determined that the actual measurement dates for financial accounting purposes of certain stock options granted primarily during fiscal years 2000-2004 differed from the recorded grant
dates of such awards. Consequently, new measurement dates for financial accounting purposes would apply to the affected awards, which would result in additional and material non-cash stock-based compensation expense. We also announced that we would
restate our financial statements beginning with the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000 through the interim period ended January 31, 2006. On December 12, 2006, the Special Committee presented the findings of its stock option
investigation to our Board of Directors and proposed various remedial measures. The Board of Directors accepted all of the findings of the Special Committee and has adopted, or is in the process of adopting, all of the remedial measures proposed. As
a result of the Special Committees investigation, as well as our internal review of our historical financial statements, we have recorded additional stock-based compensation expense for numerous stock option grants made from November 1999
through May 2006. We have restated our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended April 30, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000 to correctly account for stock option grants for which the Special Committee or
management determined that the measurement date for accounting purposes was different from the stated grant date. For more information on these matters, see Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of OperationsBackground of the Stock Option Investigation, Findings, Restatement of Consolidated Financial

##### Table of Contents

Statements, Remedial Measures and Related Proceedings, Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and Item 9A, Controls and
Procedures.



The internal review, the independent
investigation, and related activities have required us to incur substantial expenses for legal, accounting, tax and other professional services, and have diverted managements attention from our business.



While we believe we have made appropriate judgments in determining the
correct measurement dates for our stock option grants, the SEC may disagree with the manner in which we have accounted for and reported the financial impact. Accordingly, there is a risk we may have to further restate our prior financial statements,
amend prior filings with the SEC, or take other actions not currently contemplated.



Our past stock option granting practices and the restatement of prior financial statements have exposed us to greater risks associated with litigation, regulatory proceedings and government enforcement actions. As
described in Item 3, Legal Proceedings, several derivative complaints have been filed in state and federal courts against our directors and certain of our executive officers pertaining to allegations relating to stock option grants.
We have provided the results of our internal review and independent investigation to the SEC, and in that regard we have responded to informal requests for documents and additional information. The Company is also voluntarily cooperating with
requests for information from the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Northern District of California. We intend to continue full cooperation with both the SEC and the U.S. Attorneys Office. We may become the subject of, or otherwise required
to incur legal fees and costs in connection with, additional private litigation, regulatory proceedings, or government enforcement actions. No assurance can be given regarding the outcomes from such activities. The resolution of these matters will
be time consuming, expensive, and will distract management from the conduct of our business. Our available directors and officers liability insurance may not be sufficient to cover our legal expenses or those of persons we are obligated
to indemnify. Furthermore, if we are subject to adverse findings in litigation, regulatory proceedings or government enforcement actions, we could be required to pay damages or penalties or have other remedies imposed, which could harm our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Furthermore, the restatements of our financial results, the derivative litigation, the ongoing SEC investigation and any negative outcome that may occur from the investigation, or the
requests for information from the U.S. Attorneys Office and any negative outcome that may occur from such requests, could impact our relationships with customers and our ability to generate revenue.



In July 2006, we failed to timely file our Form 10-K for the year ended
April 30, 2006, and in September 2006, December 2006, and March 2007 we failed to timely file our Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended July 31, 2006, October 31, 2006 and January 31, 2007, respectively, all as a result of
the ongoing Special Committee investigation. Nasdaq promptly notified us that these failures to file periodic reports caused us to violate the requirements for continued listing as set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). We requested a
hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the Panel) to petition for continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The hearing was held on September 14, 2006. On November 13, 2006, the Panel informed us that we
would have until January 29, 2007 to file our Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2006, our Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended July 31, 2006 and October 31, 2006, and any required restatements. On January 18, 2007, we
informed the Nasdaq Stock Market that we would not meet the January 29, 2007 deadline because we had determined to seek pre-clearance from the Office of the Chief Accountant (the OCA) of the Division of Corporate Finance, U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission, of our proposed accounting treatment and related disclosures. On January 24, 2007, the Panel denied our request for additional time to comply with our filing obligations and determined to delist our shares
effective as of the open of business on Tuesday, January 30, 2007, as the Panel had no additional authority to extend the filing deadlines. We promptly appealed the Panels decision to the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council (the
Listing Council), and on January 26, 2007, the Listing Council called for review the earlier decision of the Panel requiring us to file all required restatements and delinquent periodic reports by January 29, 2007, and stayed
any suspension of trading of our securities pending further action by the Listing Council. We may submit additional information to the Listing Council by March 30, 2007. The Listing Council will then review the Panels decision on the
written record. We have now filed our

##### Table of Contents

Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2006, our Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended July 31, 2006, October 31, 2006 and January 31,
2007, and what we believe to be all required restatements with the SEC. With these filings, we believe that we have remedied our non-compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14), subject to Nasdaqs affirmative completion of its compliance
protocols and its notification to us accordingly. However, if the SEC disagrees with the manner in which we have accounted for and reported, or not reported, the financial impact of past stock option grants, there could be further delays in filing
subsequent SEC reports that might result in the delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Stock Market.



Our ability to forecast our quarterly operating results is limited, and if our quarterly operating results are below the expectations of analysts or investors, the market price of our common stock will likely
decline.



Our net sales and operating results are
likely to continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter. We believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance. It is likely that in some future quarter or
quarters, our operating results will be below the expectations of public market analysts or investors. If this occurs our stock price will likely decline, and may decline significantly. For example, in February 2006 we announced financial results
for our third quarter ended January 31, 2006. The net revenue, net income and net income per diluted share reported were below our expectations, as well as below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, and below the guidance
provided by us on November 15, 2005. As a result of these earnings announcements and guidance provided by us for our fourth quarter ending April 30, 2006, our stock price fell dramatically. A number of factors are likely to cause
variations in our sales and operating results, including factors described elsewhere in this Risk Factors section.



We cannot reliably forecast our future quarterly sales for several reasons, including:



| |  |  | Fluctuations in demand for our products and services;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The market in which we compete is relatively new and rapidly evolving;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Variability in the rate of growth, if any, of the proxy appliance market, which is difficult to predict;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to continue to increase our market share, as our market share has increased;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our sales cycle varies substantially from customer to customer;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Variations in the mix of products sold;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | The timing, size, and mix of orders from customers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our sales cycle may lengthen as the complexity of proxy appliance solutions continues to increase;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The level of competition in our target product markets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Market acceptance of new products and product enhancements;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Announcements, introductions and transitions of new products or product enhancements by us or our competitors;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Deferrals of customer orders in anticipation of new products or product enhancements introduced by us or our competitors;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Technological changes in our target product markets;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The percentage of our sales related to subscription-based products;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Future accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting policies; and

A high percentage of our expenses, including those related to manufacturing overhead, technical support,
research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative functions, amortization of intangible assets and amortization of deferred compensation, are essentially fixed in the short term. As a result, if our net sales are less than
forecasted, our quarterly operating results are likely to be seriously harmed and our stock price would likely decline. For example, a substantial portion of our shortfall in net income and net income per diluted share in our third quarter ended
January 31, 2006 was attributable to our shortfall in net revenue in that quarter.



If we fail to create additional sales through our sales channel partners, our business will be seriously harmed.



A significant amount of our revenue is generated through sales by our sales channel partners, which include distributors, resellers and system
integrators. During the year ended April 30, 2006, approximately 95.7% of our revenue was generated through our indirect sales channels. We increasingly depend upon these partners to generate sales opportunities and to independently manage the
entire sales process. In order to increase our net revenue, we will need to maintain our existing sales channel partners and add new sales channel partners. If we cannot do so, our business will not grow and our operating results will be adversely
affected.



We provide our sales channel partners with specific
programs to assist them in selling our products, but there can be no assurance that these programs will be effective. In addition, our sales channel partners may be unsuccessful in marketing, selling and supporting our products and services. They
may also market, sell and support products and services that are competitive with ours, or may devote more resources to the marketing, sales and support of products competitive to ours. They may cease selling our products and services altogether. We
cannot assure you that we will retain these indirect channel partners or that we will be able to secure additional or replacement partners. The loss of one or more of our key indirect channel partners or the failure to obtain and ship a number of
large orders each quarter through them could harm our operating results. Any new sales channel partner will require extensive training and typically take several months to achieve productivity. Many of our sales channel partners do not have minimum
purchase or resale requirements and carry products that are competitive with our products. If we fail to manage existing sales channels, our business will be seriously harmed.



In addition, a limited number of sales channel partners have accounted for a large part of our net revenue to date. For
example, one of our customers accounted for 10.2%, 15.9% and 24.1% of our net sales during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Since our expense levels are based on our expectations as to future revenue and to a
large extent are fixed in the short term, if there is a significant reduction or delay in sales of our products to any significant indirect channel partner, individually or in the aggregate, or if any significant indirect sales channel partner fails
to maintain its current levels of marketing, sales and support of our products and services, our operating results could be adversely affected. End users can stop purchasing and indirect channel partners can stop marketing our products at any time.



If we are unable to establish fair value for any undelivered element of
a customer order, revenue relating to the entire order will be deferred until the revenue recognition criteria for all elements of the customer order are met. This could lower our net revenue in one period and increase it in future periods resulting
in greater variability in net revenue and earnings period to period.



In the course of our selling efforts, we often enter into arrangements with our customers that require us to deliver a combination of different appliances, software products or services. We refer to each individual
appliance, software product or service as an element of the overall arrangement with our customer. In some cases, these arrangements require us to deliver particular elements in a future period. We do not recognize revenue on any
undelivered elements until we can determine the fair value for the undelivered elements or such elements have been delivered to our customer. In the event we are unable to determine the fair value of any undelivered elements, we defer the revenue
from the entire arrangement rather than just the undelivered elements. As a result, a portion of the revenue we recognize in each quarter could relate to previously delivered products. As such, an increase in the number of multiple element
arrangements for which we cannot determine



17

##### Table of Contents

the fair value of any undelivered elements would negatively impact our net revenue in the current period, while increasing net revenue in future periods. In
addition, we may be unable to timely adjust our cost structure to reflect this reduction in net revenue recognized in the current period, which would reduce our income for the current period. In addition, if sales related to multiple element
arrangements for which we cannot determine the fair value of any undelivered elements increase significantly, sequential growth in our net revenue may decline since revenue associated with such arrangements will be recognized in future periods.



Because we depend on several third-party manufacturers to build our
products, we are susceptible to manufacturing delays and sudden price increases, which could prevent us from shipping customer orders on time, if at all, and may result in the loss of sales and customers.



We currently purchase base assemblies or final assemblies for all of our
current appliances. Our reliance on our third-party manufacturers reduces our control over the manufacturing process, exposing us to risks, including reduced control over quality assurance, product costs and product supply. Any manufacturing
disruption by our third-party manufacturers could impair our ability to fulfill orders. We also rely on several other third-party manufacturers to build portions of our products. If we, or our suppliers, are unable to manage the relationships with
these third-party manufacturers effectively, or if these third-party manufacturers experience delays, disruptions, capacity constraints or quality control problems in their manufacturing operations, or fail to meet our future requirements for timely
delivery, our ability to ship products to our customers could be impaired and our business would be seriously harmed.



These manufacturers fulfill our supply requirements on the basis of individual purchase orders or agreements with us. Accordingly, these third-party
manufacturers are not obligated to continue to fulfill our supply requirements, and the prices we are charged for these components could be increased on short notice. If there is any interruption in the operations of any one of these third-party
manufacturers, or if we are required to change third-party manufacturers, this would adversely affect our ability to meet our scheduled product deliveries to our customers, which could cause the loss of existing or potential customers, or could
increase our costs, which could adversely affect our gross margins.



In addition, the products that these third-party manufacturers build for us may not be sufficient in quality or in quantity to meet our needs. Our delivery requirements could be higher than the capacity of these third-party manufacturers,
which would likely result in manufacturing delays, which could result in lost sales and the loss of existing and potential customers. We cannot be certain that these third-party manufacturers will be able to meet the technological or delivery
requirements of our current products or any future products that we may develop and introduce. The inability of these third-party manufacturers in the future to provide us with adequate supplies of high-quality products, or the loss of any of our
third-party manufacturers in the future would cause a delay in our ability to fulfill customer orders while we attempt to obtain a replacement manufacturer. Delays associated with our attempting to replace or our inability to replace one of our
third-party manufacturers would seriously harm our business by increasing our costs and affecting our gross margins.



We have no long-term contracts or arrangements with any of our third-party manufacturers that guarantee product availability, the continuation of
particular payment terms or the extension of credit limits. We have experienced in the past, and may experience in the future, problems with our third-party manufacturers, such as inferior quality, insufficient quantities and late delivery of
product. To date, these problems have not materially adversely affected us. We may not be able to obtain additional volume purchase or manufacturing arrangements on terms that we consider acceptable, if at all. If we enter into a high-volume or
long-term supply arrangement and subsequently decide that we cannot use the products or services provided for in the agreement, our business will be harmed. Any of these difficulties could harm our relationships with customers and cause us to lose
orders.



In the future, we may seek to use additional
third-party manufacturers. We may experience difficulty in locating and qualifying suitable manufacturing candidates capable of satisfying our product specifications or quantity requirements.

##### Table of Contents

Because some of the key components in our products come from limited sources of supply, we are susceptible to
supply shortages or supply changes, which could disrupt or delay our scheduled product deliveries to our customers and may result in the loss of sales and customers.



We currently purchase several key parts and components used in the manufacture of our products from limited sources of
supply. The introduction by these suppliers of new versions of their hardware, particularly if not anticipated by us, could require us to expend significant resources to incorporate this new hardware into our products. In addition, if these
suppliers were to discontinue production of a necessary part or component, we would be required to expend significant resources in locating and integrating replacement parts or components from another vendor.



In addition, our reliance on a limited number of suppliers involves several
risks, including:



| |  |  | a potential inability to obtain an adequate supply of required parts or components;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | supplier capacity restraints;
| | - |  | -----------------------------



| |  |  | financial or other difficulties faced by our suppliers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | price increases;
| | - |  | ----------------



| |  |  | timely delivery; and
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | component quality.
| | - |  | ------------------



Qualifying additional suppliers for limited source components can be time-consuming and expensive. Any of these events would be disruptive to us and could
seriously harm our business. Any interruption or delay in the supply of any of these parts or components, or the inability to obtain these parts or components from alternate sources at acceptable prices and within a reasonable amount of time, would
seriously harm our ability to meet our scheduled product deliveries to our customers.



We must maintain a competitive position in the proxy appliance market by developing and introducing new products while enhancing existing products to match the needs of our customers or we will lose market share and our operating
results will be adversely affected.



To maintain our
competitive position in a market characterized by rapid rates of technological advancement, we must continue to invest significant resources in research and development. We need to develop and introduce new products and enhancements to existing
products on a timely basis that keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry standards and address the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers. The introduction of new products by others, market acceptance of products
based on new or alternative technologies, or the emergence of new industry standards, could render our existing products obsolete or make it easier for other products to compete with our products. Our future success will depend in part upon our
ability to:



| |  |  | develop and maintain competitive products;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | enhance our products by adding innovative features that differentiate our products from those of our competitors;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | bring products to market on a timely basis at competitive prices;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | identify and respond to emerging technological trends in the market; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | respond effectively to new technological changes or new product announcements by others.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Primary competitive factors that have typically affected our market include
product characteristics such as reliability, scalability and ease of use, as well as price and customer support. The intensity of competition is expected to increase in the future. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions,
reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any one of which could seriously harm our business. We may not be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors and we cannot be certain that competitive pressures we face will not
seriously harm our business.

##### Table of Contents

Our business will not grow unless we can continue to extend our product offerings through the introduction of new
products and enhancements that accurately predict the needs of our target market.



We intend to extend the offerings under our product families in the future, both by introducing new products and by introducing enhancements to our existing products. However, we may experience difficulties in doing
so, and our inability to timely and cost-effectively introduce new products and product enhancements, or the failure of these new products or enhancements to achieve market acceptance, could seriously harm our business. Further, the introduction of
new products and product enhancements could result in the obsolescence of inventory which we have bought, or committed to buy, potentially requiring the recording of material charges, which would reduce net income. The process of developing new
technologies is complex and uncertain, and if we fail to accurately predict our target customers changing needs and emerging technological trends, our business could be harmed. This process requires commitment of significant resources to
develop new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. Furthermore, we may not be able to execute on new product initiatives because of errors in product planning or timing, technical hurdles that
we fail to overcome in a timely fashion, or a lack of appropriate resources. This could result in competitors providing those solutions before we do and a decrease in our market share and net revenue.



In addition, life cycles of our products are difficult to predict because the
market for our products is new and evolving and characterized by rapid technological change, frequent enhancements to existing products and new product introductions, changing customer needs and evolving industry standards. The emergence of new
industry standards might require us to redesign our products. If our products are not in compliance with industry standards, our customers and potential customers will not purchase our products. There is no guarantee that we will accurately predict
the direction in which the proxy appliance market will evolve. Failure on our part to anticipate the direction of the market and develop products that meet those emerging needs will significantly impair our business, financial condition and results
of operations.



The market for proxy appliance solutions is relatively
new, unknown and evolving, and subject to rapid technological changes. If this market does not develop as we anticipate, our sales may not grow and may decline. We need to continue to develop market awareness of our company and our products.



Sales of our products depend on increased demand for
proxy appliances. The market for proxy appliances is a new and rapidly evolving market. If the market for proxy appliances fails to grow as we anticipate, or grows more slowly than we anticipate, our business will be seriously harmed. We see signs
of slower growth in the proxy appliance market. In addition, we believe that any further gains in our market share in the proxy appliance market will be more difficult to achieve than earlier gains in market share, and will occur more slowly, if at
all. In addition, our business will be harmed if the market for proxy appliances continues to be negatively impacted by uncertainty surrounding macroeconomic growth.



Market awareness of our products is essential to the growth and success of our company. One of our goals is to increasingly
market and advertise our company and our products. If our advertising and marketing programs are not successful in creating market awareness of our company and products, our net revenue and results of operations could be substantially impacted.



Our sales may not grow because our proxy appliances only protect
Web-based applications and content, and our target customers may not wish to purchase our network security device without protection for non-Web based applications and content. Any failure of this product to satisfy customer demands could harm our
business.



Our proxy appliances are specially designed
to secure only Web-based protocols, such as http, https, ftp and streaming. While we believe that the majority of traffic traveling over the networks of our target customers is Web-based, a significant amount of our target customers network
traffic may not be Web-based. Our products do not protect non-Web protocols. If our target customers do not wish to purchase a security device that only



20

##### Table of Contents

handles network traffic that is Web protocol-based, our target customers may not purchase our products and our growth could be limited. We may not be
successful in achieving market acceptance of any new products that we develop if they do not contain non-Web based applications and content.



Some of our competitors have greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than we do. In addition, acquisitions of or other strategic
transactions by our competitors could weaken our competitive position or reduce our revenue.



The market for proxy appliances is intensely competitive, evolving and subject to rapid technological change. The intensity of this competition is
expected to increase in the future. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any one of which could seriously harm our business. We may not be able to compete successfully against
current or future competitors and we cannot be certain that competitive pressures we face will not seriously harm our business. Our competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of the products and services they offer. We encounter
competition from a variety of companies, including Cisco Systems, Network Appliance (prior to our acquisition of certain assets of their NetCache business in September 2006), Microsoft, and various others. In addition, we expect additional competition from other established and emerging companies
as the market for proxy appliances continues to develop and expand. Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, significantly greater name
recognition and a larger installed base of customers than we do. In addition, many of our competitors have well-established relationships with our current and potential customers and have extensive knowledge of our industry. As a result, our
competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, or to devote greater resources to the development, marketing, promotion and sale of their products than we can. The products of our
competitors may have features and functionality that our products do not have. Current and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the market acceptance of
their products. In addition, our competitors may be able to replicate our products, make more attractive offers to existing and potential employees and strategic partners, develop new products or enhance existing products and services more quickly,
or bundle proxy appliances in a manner that we cannot provide. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. We also expect that competition will increase as
a result of industry consolidation.



We have been informed of SEC and
other investigations, which could result in substantial costs and divert management attention and resources.



In July 2006, we were advised that the SEC was conducting an informal inquiry into our historical stock option grants and accounting practices, In the
Matter of Blue Coat Systems, Inc.,SF-3165. We are cooperating with the investigation. We are also voluntarily cooperating with requests for information from the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Northern District of California.



In late 2005, the SEC informed us of its formal investigation into trading in
certain securities, In the Matter of Trading in Certain Securities, H0-9818, including trading in our securities, prior to our public announcement on May 27, 2004 of our financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2004. The
SEC also informed us that we are the subject of a formal order of private investigation, In the Matter of Blue Coat Systems, Inc., HO-10096, concerning whether certain present or former officers, directors, employees, affiliates or others
made intentional or non-intentional selective disclosures of material nonpublic information in connection with our May 27, 2004 announcement, traded in our stock while in possession of such information, or communicated such information to
others who thereafter traded in our stock. The SEC subpoenaed information from us and took testimony from certain current and former officers in the summer of 2005.



On February 27, 2006, the NASD informed us that it is reviewing trading in our common stock surrounding our
February 6, 2006 announcement of net income and revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2006. We are cooperating with the investigation.

##### Table of Contents

On March 9, 2006, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) informed us that it is
reviewing option activity surrounding our January 3, 2006 announcement that we would acquire Permeo Technologies, Inc. We are cooperating with the investigation.



An unfavorable outcome in, or resolution of, any of these matters may be costly, and result in damage to our reputation
among our customers and investors, cause a drop in the price of our common stock, or both.



Our gross margin percentage may be below our expectations or the expectations of investors and analysts due to a variety of factors, which would adversely affect our operating results and could result in a
decline in the market price of our common stock.



Our
gross margin percentage has been and will continue to be affected by a variety of factors, including:



| |  |  | market acceptance of our products and fluctuations in demand;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the timing and size of customer orders and product implementations;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the mix of direct and indirect sales;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | the mix and average selling prices of products;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | new product introductions and enhancements;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | manufacturing and component costs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | availability of sufficient inventory to meet demand;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | purchase of inventory in excess of demand
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased price competition and pressures and changes in product pricing;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | actions taken by our competitors;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | how well we execute on our strategy and operating plans; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | revenue recognition rules.
| | - |  | --------------------------



For example, we have in the past entered into large revenue transactions with certain customers that, because of the product mix and volume discount, have
decreased our total gross margin percentage. We may, in the future, enter into similar transactions. Our lower end appliances have poorer margins than our higher end appliances, and if our customers submit a large order or orders for our lower end
appliances, the combination of smaller margins and volume discount provided to those customers would result in a negative impact to our gross margin percentage.



Factors that could cause demand to be different from our expectations can include changes in customer order patterns, including order cancellations,
and changes in business and economic conditions. Even if we achieve our revenue and operating expense objectives, if our gross margins are below expectations we may fail to meet our net income objectives and our operating results may be below our
expectations and the expectations of investors and analysts, which might cause our stock price to decline.



We have a history of losses and profitability could be difficult to sustain.



We were not profitable in the fourth fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2006 or in several quarters in our fiscal year ended April 30, 2005. While
we have been profitable in certain quarters, we have not been able to maintain profitability on a quarterly basis. Furthermore, our level of profitability (loss) has fluctuated from quarter to quarter, such that we have not been able to demonstrate
consistency in our financial results. We may not be profitable on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. Our ability to achieve, sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis will be affected by changes in our business and the
demand for our products and

##### Table of Contents

services. We expect our operating expenses to increase as our business grows, and we anticipate that we will make investments in our business. As a result,
our results of operations will be harmed if our sales do not increase at a rate commensurate with the rate of increase in our expenses. If our sales are less than anticipated or if operating expenditures exceed our expectations or cannot be adjusted
accordingly, we may experience losses on a quarterly and annual basis.



We rely on technology that we license from third parties, including software that is integrated with internally developed software and used in our products to perform key functions.



We rely on technology that we license from third parties, including software
that is used in our products to perform key functions. If we are unable to continue to license any of this software on commercially reasonable terms, we will face delays in releases of our software or we will be required to drop this functionality
from our software until equivalent technology can be identified, licensed or developed, and integrated into our current product. In addition, the inability to obtain certain licenses or other rights might require us to engage in litigation regarding
these matters, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Any of these delays could seriously harm our business.



We may not be able to continue to generate a significant level of sales from the international markets in which we currently operate.



We expect international customers to continue to account for a significant
percentage of net sales in the future, but we may fail to maintain or increase international market demand for our products. In fiscal 2006, 50.0% of our total net revenue was derived from customers outside of North America. Also, because our
international sales are currently denominated in United States dollars, an increase in the value of the United States dollar relative to foreign currencies could make our products more expensive and, therefore, potentially less competitive in
international markets, and this would decrease our international sales. Our ability to generate international sales depends on our ability to maintain our international operations (including efficient use of existing resources and effective channel
management), and to recruit additional international resellers.



Our international operations are subject to certain inherent risks including:



| |  |  | technical difficulties and costs associated with product localization;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | challenges associated with coordinating product development efforts among geographically dispersed areas;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential loss of proprietary information due to piracy, misappropriation, or laws that may be less protective of our intellectual property rights;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | lack of experience in certain geographic markets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | longer payment cycles for sales in certain foreign countries;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | seasonal reductions in business activity in the summer months in Europe and certain other countries;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the significant presence of some of our competitors in some international markets;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potentially adverse tax consequences;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | import and export restrictions and tariffs;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | foreign laws and other government controls, such as trade and employment restrictions;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | management, staffing, legal and other costs of operating an enterprise spread over various countries;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | political instability in the countries where we are doing business; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fears concerning travel or health risks that may adversely affect our ability to sell our products and services in any country in which the business sales culture
encourages face-to-face interactions.

To the extent we are unable to manage these risks effectively, our growth, if any, in international sales
will be limited and our business could be seriously harmed.



Unpredictable macroeconomic conditions could adversely impact our existing and potential customers ability and willingness to purchase our products, which would cause a decline in our sales.



There is uncertainty relating to the prospects for near-term U.S. economic
growth and growth within the international markets. This uncertainty has in the past and may in the future contribute to delays in decision-making by our existing and potential customers and a resulting decline in our sales. Continued uncertainty or
a decrease in corporate spending could result in a decline to our sales and our operating results could be below our expectations and the expectations of public market analysts and investors.



Our variable sales cycle makes it difficult to predict the timing of a sale or whether
a sale will be made, which makes our quarterly operating results less predictable.



Because customers have differing views on the strategic importance of implementing proxy appliances, the time required to educate customers and sell our products can vary widely. As a result, the evaluation, testing,
implementation and acceptance procedures undertaken by customers can vary, resulting in a variable sales cycle, which typically ranges from one to nine months. While our customers are evaluating our products and before they place an order with us,
we may incur substantial sales and marketing expenses and expend significant management efforts. In addition, purchases of our products are frequently subject to unplanned processing and other delays, particularly with respect to larger customers
for whom our products represent a very small percentage of their overall purchase activity. Large customers typically require approvals at a number of management levels within their organizations, and, therefore, frequently have longer sales cycles.
Since one of our strategies is to focus on mid-to-large size enterprises, we may experience a lengthening of our sales cycle. In addition, as we compete for larger orders, competition is likely to increase causing customers to extend their decision
making process. As a result of these factors, it is difficult to predict the timing of a sale or whether a sale will be made, which makes our quarterly operating results less predictable. For example, we anticipated closing several large orders
toward the end of our third quarter ended January 31, 2006. We learned very late in the third quarter that these deals would not close in the quarter. Based in part on these deals not closing as anticipated, our net revenue, net income and net
income per diluted share for our third quarter was below our expectations. It is difficult to determine the timing of closing of any particular transactions, which makes predicting our quarterly operating results very difficult.



We are subject to evolving and expensive corporate governance regulations and
requirements. Our failure to adequately adhere to these requirements or the failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures could seriously harm our business.



Because we are a publicly-traded company, we are subject to certain federal, state and other rules and regulations,
including rules and regulations recently adopted in response to laws adopted by Congress, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Compliance with these evolving regulations is costly and requires significant management time and attention,
particularly with regard to our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting.



We had a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting and cannot assure you that additional material weaknesses will not be identified in the
future. If our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, there may be errors in our financial statements that could require a restatement or our filings may not be timely and investors may
lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could lead to a decline in our stock price.



Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the
end of each year, and to include a management report assessing the



24



---

##### Table of Contents

effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in each Annual Report on Form 10-K. Section 404 also requires our independent
registered public accounting firm to attest to, and report on, managements assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.



In assessing the results of the Special Committees investigation and findings, as well as the internal review and recertification procedures
performed for purposes of the preparation and certification of the restated consolidated financial statements, our management concluded that as of April 30, 2006 there was a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting
with regard to our accounting for, and disclosure of, stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes. A description of the material weakness related to our inadequate controls over the accounting for, and disclosure of, stock-based compensation
and related payroll taxes is set forth in Part II, Item 9A Controls and Procedures. Our management also evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2006 and
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of that date, because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.



We have adopted, or are in the process of adopting, various remedial measures that are designed to improve our internal
controls over the accounting for and disclosure of stock-based compensation. We cannot assure you, however, that these remedial measures will be effective. We also cannot assure you that significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our
internal control over financial reporting will not exist in the future. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in their implementation, could result in significant deficiencies or
material weaknesses, cause us to fail to timely meet our periodic reporting obligations, or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations and
annual auditor attestation reports regarding disclosure controls and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated thereunder. The
existence of a material weakness could result in errors in our financial statements that could result in a restatement of financial statements, cause us to fail to timely meet our reporting obligations and cause investors to lose confidence in our
reported financial information, leading to a decline in our stock price.



Undetected product errors, or failures found in new products may result in a loss of or delay in market acceptance of our products, which could cause us to incur significant costs and reduce our sales.



Our products may contain undetected operating errors when first introduced
or as new versions are released. Despite testing by us and by current and potential customers, errors may not be found in new products or new versions until after commencement of commercial shipments, resulting in loss of or delay in market
acceptance, which could materially adversely affect our operating results. These errors may cause us to incur significant warranty and repair costs, divert the attention of our engineering personnel from our product development efforts and cause
significant customer relations problems. In addition, all of our products operate on our internally developed operating system. As a result, any error in the operating system will affect all of our products. We have experienced minor errors in the
past in connection with new products. We expect that errors will be found from time to time in new or enhanced products after commencement of commercial shipments, which could seriously harm our business.



We develop products in the United States and sell them throughout the world. As a
result, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and/or weak economic conditions in foreign markets could negatively impact our financial results.



Because we develop products in the United States and sell them throughout the world, our financial results could be negatively affected by factors such as
changes in foreign currency exchange rates and weak economic conditions in foreign markets. All of our sales are currently made in United States dollars and a strengthening of the dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign countries.
Should the U.S. dollars strength increase in foreign markets, and/or weak economic conditions prevail in these markets, our net sales could be seriously impacted, since a significant portion of our nets sales are derived from international
operations.

All of our foreign subsidiaries operating expenses are incurred in foreign currencies. As a result,
should the dollar strengthen our foreign operating expenses would decrease and should the dollar weaken our foreign operating expenses would increase. Should foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate, our earnings and net cash flows from
international operations may be adversely affected.



We are dependent
upon key personnel and we must attract, assimilate and retain other highly qualified personnel or our ability to execute our business strategy and generate sales could be harmed.



Our business could be seriously disrupted if we do not maintain the continued service of our senior management, research and
development and sales personnel. We have experienced and may continue to experience transition in our management team. The majority of our employees are employed on an at-will basis. Our ability to conduct our business also depends on
our continuing ability to attract, hire, train and retain a number of highly skilled managerial, technical, sales, marketing and customer support personnel. New hires frequently require extensive training before they achieve desired levels of
productivity, so a high employee turnover rate could seriously impair our ability to operate and manage our business.



We are the target of a Class Action Lawsuit and Derivative Litigation and regulatory proceedings, which could result in substantial costs, divert management
attention and resources, and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.



IPO Allocation Litigation. Beginning on May 16, 2001, a series of putative securities class actions were filed in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York against the firms that underwrote our initial public offering, us, and some of our officers and directors. These cases have been consolidated under the case captioned In re CacheFlow, Inc.
Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Civil Action No. 1-01-CV-5143. This is one of a number of actions coordinated for pretrial purposes as In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21 MC 92 with the first action
filed on January 12, 2001. Plaintiffs in the coordinated proceeding are bringing claims under the federal securities laws against numerous underwriters, companies, and individuals, alleging generally that defendant underwriters engaged in
improper and undisclosed activities concerning the allocation of shares in the IPOs of more than 300 companies during late 1998 through 2000. Among other things, the plaintiffs allege that the underwriters customers had to pay excessive
brokerage commissions and purchase additional shares of stock in the aftermarket in order to receive favorable allocations of shares in an IPO.



The consolidated amended complaint in our case seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of our common stock between
December 9, 1999 and December 6, 2000. Pursuant to a tolling agreement, the individual defendants were dismissed without prejudice. On February 19, 2003, the court denied our motion to dismiss the claims against us. The litigation is
now in discovery.



In June 2004, a stipulation of settlement
and release of claims against the issuer defendants, including us, was submitted to the court for approval. The terms of the settlement, if approved, would dismiss and release all claims against the participating defendants (including us). In
exchange for this dismissal, D&O insurance carriers would agree to guarantee a recovery by the plaintiffs from the underwriter defendants of at least $1 billion, and the issuer defendants would agree to an assignment or surrender to the
plaintiffs of certain claims the issuer defendants may have against the underwriters. On August 31, 2005, the court confirmed preliminary approval of the settlement. On April 24, 2006, the court held a fairness hearing in connection with
the motion for final approval of the settlement. The court has yet to issue a ruling on the motion for final approval. The settlement remains subject to a number of conditions, including final court approval. On December 5, 2006, the Court of
Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed the courts October 2004 order certifying a class in six test cases that were selected by the underwriter defendants and plaintiffs in the coordinated proceeding. We are not one of the test cases and it
is unclear what impact this will have on the class certified in our case.



Dismissed Class Action. Beginning on or about April 11, 2005, several putative class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California
against us and certain of our

officers on behalf of purchasers of our stock between February 20, 2004 and May 27, 2004 (the Class Period). The complaints alleged
that during the Class Period defendants violated the federal securities laws by making false or misleading statements of material fact about our financial prospects. Specifically, the complaints alleged claims under Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 20A of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. All cases were consolidated as In re Blue Coat Systems, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. C-05-1468 (N.D. Cal.). Following the appointment of a lead plaintiff and lead
plaintiffs counsel, the lead plaintiff on October 7, 2005 filed a notice of voluntary dismissal without prejudice of the consolidated action. On October 18, 2005, the Court dismissed the case without prejudice.



Derivative Lawsuits. On May 18, 2005, a purported
shareholder derivative action was filed in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County, alleging that certain of our officers and directors violated their fiduciary duties to us by making false or misleading statements about our prospects
between February 20, 2004 and May 27, 2004. On July 17, 2006, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, adding allegations that certain current and former officers and directors violated their fiduciary duties to us
since our initial public offering by granting and failing to account correctly for stock options. The amended complaint seeks various relief on our behalf from the individual defendants. On September 8, 2006, another and substantively identical
purported shareholder derivative action was filed against certain of our current and former officers and directors. Both of these state derivative cases have been consolidated.



On August 8 and September 5, 2006, two purported shareholder derivative actions were filed in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of California against certain of our current and former officers and directors. Like the state derivative actions, the federal derivative actions allege that certain of our current and former officers and
directors violated their fiduciary duties since our initial public offering by granting and failing to account correctly for stock options and seek various relief on our behalf from the individual defendants. Both of these federal cases have been
consolidated.



Regulatory Proceedings. In July
2006, we were advised that the SEC was conducting an informal inquiry into our historical stock option grants and accounting practices, In the Matter of Blue Coat Systems, Inc.,SF-3165. We are cooperating with the investigation. We are also
voluntarily cooperating with requests for information from the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Northern District of California.



In late 2005, the SEC informed us of its formal investigation into trading in certain securities, In the Matter of Trading in Certain Securities,
H0-9818, including trading in our securities, prior to our public announcement on May 27, 2004 of our financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2004. The SEC also informed us that we are the subject of a formal order of private
investigation, In the Matter of Blue Coat Systems, Inc., HO-10096, concerning whether certain present or former officers, directors, employees, affiliates or others made intentional or non-intentional selective disclosures of material
nonpublic information in connection with our May 27, 2004 announcement, traded in our stock while in possession of such information, or communicated such information to others who thereafter traded in our stock. The SEC subpoenaed information
from us and took testimony from certain current and former officers in the summer of 2005.



On February 27, 2006, the NASD informed us that it is reviewing trading in our common stock surrounding our February 6, 2006 announcement of net income and revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2006.
We are cooperating with the investigation.



On March 9,
2006, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) informed us that it is reviewing option activity surrounding our January 3, 2006 announcement that we will acquire Permeo Technologies, Inc. We are cooperating with the investigation.



Although we cannot predict whether the IPO allocation cases
will settle as proposed, and cannot predict the outcome of the derivative litigation or the SEC and other regulatory investigations, the costs of defending these matters (including our obligations to indemnify current or former officers, directors,
or employees), an adverse result, or the diversion of managements attention and resources could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, from time to time and in the ordinary course of business, we may be subject to various other
claims and litigation. Such claims could result in the expenditure of significant financial and other resources.



If the protection of our proprietary technology is inadequate, our competitors may gain access to our technology, and our market share could decline.



We depend significantly on our ability to develop and
maintain the proprietary aspects of our technology. To protect our proprietary technology, we rely primarily on a combination of contractual provisions, confidentiality procedures, trade secrets, copyright and trademark laws and patents. Despite our
efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult. In addition, the laws of
some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting our proprietary rights may not be adequate and our competitors may independently develop similar
technology, duplicate our products or design around patents that may be issued to us or our other intellectual property.



We presently have several issued patents and pending United States patent applications. We cannot assure that any U.S. patent will be issued from these
applications. Even with issued patents, we cannot assure that we will be able to detect any infringement or, if infringement is detected, that patents issued will be enforceable or that any damages awarded to us will be sufficient to adequately
compensate us.



We currently operate in foreign locations and
may increase the amount of research and development that is done internationally. The laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Should we be unable to defend our
existing or developed intellectual property, or should the existing laws protecting intellectual property and its development deteriorate, our business and our results of operations would be adversely affected.



There can be no assurance or guarantee that any products, services or
technologies that we are presently developing, or will develop in the future, will result in intellectual property that is protectable under law, whether in the United States or a foreign jurisdiction, that this intellectual property will produce
competitive advantage for us or that the intellectual property of competitors will not restrict our freedom to operate, or put us at a competitive disadvantage.



There has been a substantial amount of litigation in the technology industry regarding intellectual property rights. In November 2003, we entered into
a legal settlement with Network Caching Technology L.L.C., which had alleged, among other things, that we infringed certain of their patent rights. On March 13, 2006, eSoft, Inc. (eSoft) filed a complaint for patent infringement
against us in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The complaint alleges infringement of eSofts U.S. Patent 6,961,773, (the 773 Patent) and seeks unspecified monetary damages, as well as an injunction against
future infringements. eSofts amended complaint, filed on June 9, 2006, identified our ProxySG and ProxyAV products as the alleged infringing products. eSoft has subsequently alleged damages in the form of lost
profits and/or a reasonable royalty for use of its patented technology.



We answered the amended complaint denying infringement and contending that eSofts patent was invalid. We recently filed several motions for summary judgment on these grounds. Discovery is progressing and we intend to
contest the case vigorously. As part of our defense, we have requested the United States Patent Office to initiate inter partes reexamination proceedings for the 773 Patent in light of a number of prior art references never
considered by the patent examiner during the original prosecution of the patent application. The District Court has stayed the litigation pending the outcome of these proceedings.



On October 31, 2006, eSoft filed a complaint for declaratory relief seeking a determination that our U.S. Patent
7,103,794 was invalid and/or that eSofts products did not infringe same. We answered this complaint on



28

##### Table of Contents

November 22, 2006, and, in a counterclaim, asserted our 794 Patent against eSofts InstaGate and ThreatWall Security Gateways. This case
is also pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado and likewise has been stayed pending the outcome of the reexamination of the 773 Patent. We expect that companies in the Internet and networking industries will
increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. Any claims, including the eSoft claim, with or without
merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or
at all, which could seriously harm our business.



If we are unable to
raise additional capital, our business could be harmed.



As of April 30, 2006, we had $57.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. We believe that these amounts will enable us to meet our capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, if cash is used
for unanticipated needs, we may need additional capital during that period. The development and marketing of new products will require a significant commitment of resources. In addition, if the market for proxy appliances develops at a slower pace
than anticipated or if we fail to establish significant market share and achieve a meaningful level of sales, we could be required to raise substantial additional capital. We cannot be certain that additional capital will be available to us on
favorable terms, or at all. If we were unable to raise additional capital when we require it, our business would be seriously harmed.



The legal environment in which we operate is uncertain and claims against us could cause our business to suffer.



Our products operate in part by storing material available on the Internet
and making this material available to end users from our appliance. This creates the potential for claims to be made against us, either directly or through contractual indemnification provisions with customers, for defamation, negligence, copyright
or trademark infringement, personal injury, invasion of privacy or other legal theories based on the nature, content or copying of these materials. As of April 30, 2006, we have not accrued any liabilities relating to indemnification provisions with
our customers. It is also possible that if any information provided through any of our products contains errors, third parties could make claims against us for losses incurred in reliance on this information. Our insurance may not cover potential
claims of this type or be adequate to protect us from all liability that may be imposed.



Potential new accounting pronouncements may impact our future financial position or results of operations.



Future changes in financial accounting standards, including new changes in accounting for employee stock-based awards, may cause adverse, unexpected
fluctuations in the timing of the recognition of net revenue or expenses and may affect our financial position or results of operations. New pronouncements and varying interpretations of pronouncements have occurred and expected to continue to occur
frequently, and we may make changes in our accounting policies in the future. As a result, we intend to invest significant resources to comply with evolving standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses.



In particular, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), which requires the measurement of all 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. The accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) are effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We adopted SFAS No. 123(R) in our first
quarter of fiscal year 2007. The adoption of the SFAS No. 123(R) fair value method will have a significant adverse impact on our reported results of operations, currently estimated at approximately $2.5 million to $3.5 million per quarter,
although it will have no impact on our overall financial position.

We may make acquisitions in the future, which could affect our operations.



We may make acquisitions in the future. Acquisitions of companies, products
or technologies entail numerous risks, including:



| |  |  | our inability to successfully integrate the operations, technologies, products and personnel of the acquired companies;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diversion of managements attention from normal daily operations of the business;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of key employees of acquired companies; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | substantial transaction costs.
| | - |  | ------------------------------



We completed the acquisition of Permeo Technologies, Inc. (Permeo), on March 3, 2006. On September 11, 2006, we completed the
acquisition of certain assets of the NetCache
business from Network Appliance, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement executed on June 22, 2006. Our acquisitions of Permeo and of certain assets from Network Appliance may or may not be successful and are subject to all of the risks
described above.



Acquisitions may also cause us to:



| |  |  | issue equity securities that would dilute our current stockholders percentage ownership;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | assume certain liabilities;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | incur additional debt;
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | make large and immediate one-time write-offs and restructuring and other related expenses;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | become subject to intellectual property or other litigation; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | create goodwill or other intangible assets that could result in significant amortization expense.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Any of these problems or factors could seriously harm our business. We issued
a combination of stock and cash in the Permeo and NetCache transactions, and in the private placement of preferred stock from which we funded a portion of the NetCache transaction. The issuance of stock in these transactions diluted our existing
stockholders. We also used $14.9 million and $23.9 million in cash as consideration in the Permeo and NetCache transactions, respectively.



We could be subject to product liability claims, which are time-consuming and costly to defend.



Our customers install our proxy appliance products directly into their
network infrastructures. Any errors, defects or other performance problems with our products could negatively impact the networks of our customers or other Internet users, resulting in financial or other damages to these groups. These groups may
then seek damages from us for their losses. If a claim were brought against us, we may not have sufficient protection from statutory limitations or license or contract terms with our customers, and any unfavorable judicial decisions could seriously
harm our business. A product liability claim brought against us, even if not successful, would likely be time-consuming and costly. A product liability claim could also seriously harm our business reputation.



Our operations could be significantly hindered by the occurrence of a natural disaster,
terrorist attack or other catastrophic event.



Our
operations are susceptible to outages due to fire, floods, power loss, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks and other events beyond our control. In addition, a substantial portion of our facilities, including our headquarters, are located
in Northern California, an area susceptible to earthquakes. We do not carry earthquake insurance for earthquake-related losses. Despite our implementation of network security measures, our servers are vulnerable to computer viruses, break-ins, and
similar disruptions from unauthorized tampering

with our computer systems. We may not carry sufficient business interruption insurance to compensate us for losses that may occur as a result of any of these
events. Any such event could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.



Our stock price is volatile and, as a result, you may have difficulty evaluating the value of our stock, and the market price of our stock may decline.



Since our initial public offering, the market price
of our common stock has fluctuated significantly. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to the following factors, among others:



| |  |  | variations in our quarterly operating results;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



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



| |  |  | changes in macro-economic conditions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | the introduction of new products by our competitors;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to keep pace with changing technological requirements;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in market valuations of Internet-related and networking companies;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of a major customer;
| | - |  | -------------------------



| |  |  | additions or departures of key personnel;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------



| |  |  | fluctuations in stock market volumes;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | speculation in the press or investment communication about our strategic position, financial condition, results of operations, business; and

Sweden, Italy, United Arab Emirates, Japan, Peoples Republic of China, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, South Korea, Thailand, and Australia.



In February 2002 we announced a restructuring plan that included closing down our research and development facilities in Redmond, Washington and
Sunnyvale, California, and moving the U.S. research and development organization back into our headquarters facility in Sunnyvale, California. Subsequently, the research and development facilities in Redmond, Washington and Sunnyvale, California
were subleased in December 2002 and October 2004, respectively, for the remainder of the term of their original leases at a rental price consistent with our initial estimates.



We believe that our existing facilities are adequate to meet our current requirements, and that suitable additional or
substitute space will be available, if necessary.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings



eSoft, Inc. v.
Blue Coat Systems, Inc.



On March 13, 2006,
eSoft, Inc. filed a complaint for patent infringement against us in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The complaint alleges infringement of eSofts U.S. Patent 6,961,773 (the 773 Patent), and seeks

Gateways. This case is also pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado and likewise has been stayed pending the outcome of the reexamination of the 773 Patent.



IPO Allocation Litigation.



Beginning on May 16, 2001, a series of putative securities class
actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the firms that underwrote our initial public offering, us, and some of our officers and directors. These cases have been consolidated under the case

Internet Bureau (OAG), resolving an inquiry by the OAG into certain business practices of Blue Coat. Pursuant to the AOD, and without admitting the OAGs findings or any violation of law, Blue Coat agreed that (1) for any Blue
Coat product or service that will or may be distributed to a New York consumer or used in New York, Blue Coat will not include in its licensing agreement a Restriction Clause preventing the purchaser from publishing the results of any
comparative test of Blue Coats products or services without Blue Coats express written consent; and (2) Blue Coat will not enforce, attempt to enforce or threaten to enforce any Restriction Clause contained in a previously
distributed License Agreement against any New York party. In connection with the AOD, Blue Coat agreed to pay $30,000 to the OAG.

Dismissed Class Action Litigation.



Beginning on or about April 11, 2005, several putative class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District
Court for the Northern District of California against us and certain of our officers on behalf of purchasers of our stock between February 20, 2004 and May 27, 2004 (the Class Period). The complaints alleged that during the
Class Period defendants violated the federal securities laws by making false or misleading statements of material fact about our financial prospects. Specifically, the complaints alleged claims under Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 20A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. All cases were consolidated as In re Blue Coat Systems, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. C-05-1468 (N.D. Cal.). Following the appointment of a lead plaintiff and lead plaintiffs
counsel, the lead plaintiff on October 7, 2005 filed a notice of voluntary dismissal without prejudice of the consolidated action. On October 18, 2005, the Court dismissed the case without prejudice.



Although we cannot predict whether the IPO allocation cases will settle as
proposed, and cannot predict the outcome of the derivative litigation or the SEC and other regulatory investigations, the costs of defending these matters (including our obligations to indemnify current or former officers, directors, or employees)
could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.



Periodically, we review the status of each significant matter and assess potential financial exposure. Because of the uncertainties related to the (i) determination of the probability of an unfavorable outcome
and (ii) amount and range of loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of the liability that could result from any pending litigation described above and no accrual was recorded in our balance
sheet as of April 30, 2006. As additional information becomes available, we will reassess the probability and potential liability related to pending litigation, which could materially impact our results of operations and financial condition.



From time to time and in the ordinary course of business, we
may be subject to various other claims and litigation. Such claims could result in the expenditure of significant financial and other resources.



Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders



No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006.

assisted by independent legal counsel and accounting experts, formed in July 2006 to conduct an internal investigation into our historical stock option granting practices that concluded that our historical measurement dates could not be relied upon.
We also recorded adjustments affecting our previously-reported financial statements for fiscal years 2000 through 2003, the effects of which are summarized in cumulative adjustments to our additional paid in capital, deferred stock-based
compensation and accumulated deficit accounts as of April 30, 2003.



Our selected consolidated financial data as of and for each of the four years ended April 30, 2005 has been restated in the tables below as well. For additional information regarding the restatement, please see

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



All statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (Form 10-K), other than statements or characterizations of historical fact, are
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates, approximations and projections about our industry and business, managements beliefs, and certain assumptions made by us, all of
which are subject to change. We often use certain words and their derivatives such as anticipate, expect, intend, plan, predict, believe, estimate, may,
will, should, would, could, potential, continue, ongoing, and similar expressions in our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of
future performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled
Risk Factors under Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report. We assume no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement for any
reason, except as otherwise required by law.



Forward-looking statements are not the only statements you should regard with caution. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements required us to make judgments with respect to the methodologies we selected to calculate the
adjustments contained in the financial statements, as well as estimates and assumptions regarding the application of those methodologies. These judgments, estimates and assumptions, which are based on factors that we believe to be reasonable under
the circumstances, affected, among other things, the amounts of additional deferred stock-based compensation and additional stock-based compensation expense that we recorded. The application of alternative methodologies, estimates and assumptions
could have resulted in materially different amounts.



The
discussion and analysis set forth below in this Item 7 reflects the restatement as referenced above in the Explanatory Note to this Form 10-K and further discussed in this Item 7 and in Note 3, Restatement of Consolidated Financial
Statements, to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. For this reason, the information set forth in this section may not be comparable to discussions and data in our previously filed Annual Reports on Form 10-K.



Overview



Blue Coat sells a family of appliances and client-based solutions (deployed in branch offices, Internet gateways, end
points, and data centers) that provide intelligent points of policy-based control enabling information technology (IT) organizations to improve security and accelerate performance for all users and applications. Our products are
delivered to customers through a worldwide sales organization that includes direct sales, distributors, and resellers in more than 50 countries worldwide. Blue Coat customers are backed by a worldwide service and support organization that
provides a broad range of service options, including 24x7 technical support and product education.



Blue Coat has grown its net revenue and market share in the proxy appliance market in the last few years. However, we see signs of slower growth in the
proxy appliance market. In addition, we believe that any further gains in our market share in the proxy appliance market will be more difficult to achieve than earlier gains in market share, and will occur more slowly, if at all.

Financial Statements, Remedial Measures and Related Proceedings



Background of the Stock Option Investigation



In May 2006, we were included in a Deutsche Bank report entitled Infrastructure SW Update: Analyzing Potential for Back Dated Stock Options, which analyzed the likelihood that various software companies may have back dated
historical stock option grants. After reviewing the Deutsche Bank report, our management reviewed various historical documents relating to stock option grants and, on June 1, 2006, informed the Audit

Committee of the Board of Directors of potential back dating of stock options. The Audit Committee promptly engaged Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP
(Pillsbury) in early June 2006 to assist the Audit Committee in reviewing our historical stock option granting practices. On or about June 9, 2006, Pillsbury engaged Deloitte Financial Advisory Services (Deloitte) as a
forensic accountant to assist them in the investigation.



On
July 12, 2006, our Board of Directors appointed an independent committee of the Board of Directors (the Special Committee) to manage the review of our historical practices in granting stock options. The Special Committee was
comprised of two members of our Audit Committee, James Barth and Jay Shiveley, and independent board member Timothy Howes; on October 19, 2006, Mr. Shiveley passed away and the Special Committee thereafter consisted of Mr. Barth and
Mr. Howes. For purposes of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the term Special Committee also includes the work of the Audit Committee on the stock option investigation between June 1, 2006 and July 12, 2006.



On July 14, 2006, we announced that we were conducting a voluntary
review of our historical practices in granting stock options to management and employees. We also announced that (i) our Board of Directors had appointed a Special Committee of independent directors to conduct this review; (ii) the Special
Committee was being assisted by independent legal counsel and accounting experts; (iii) the review covered all option grants since our initial public offering in November 1999; (iv) the Special Committee had also advised our independent
registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP (Ernst & Young), of its review; (v) the Special Committee had reached a preliminary conclusion that the actual measurement dates for financial accounting purposes of
certain stock option grants issued in the past likely differed from the recorded grant dates of such awards; (vi) while the Special Committee had not completed its investigation and was continuing its review, based on their preliminary
conclusions we believed we may record additional non-cash charges for stock-based compensation expense, but we were not yet able to determine the amount of such charges or the resulting tax impact of these actions; and (vii) we were not yet
able to determine whether any such compensation charges would be material and require us to restate previously issued financial statements.



On July 14, 2006, we also filed a Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that we would be unable to timely file an annual
report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 until the stock option review had been completed. In light of the ongoing review, we also announced that we were withdrawing our previously-issued financial outlook for the first
quarter of fiscal 2007 (ending July 31, 2006), and that we expected to incur significant legal and professional fees in the first quarter of fiscal 2007.



On September 11, 2006, we announced that, although the Special Committees review was still ongoing, our Board of Directors, with the
concurrence of the Special Committee, had determined that, pursuant to the requirements of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), the actual measurement dates for
financial accounting purposes of certain stock options granted primarily during fiscal years 2000-2004 differed from the recorded grant dates of such awards. Consequently, new measurement dates for financial accounting purposes would apply to the
affected awards, which would result in additional and material non-cash stock-based compensation expense. We also announced that we would restate our financial statements beginning with the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000 through the interim
period ended January 31, 2006. Accordingly, we announced that our financial statements and the related reports of our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young, and all related earnings releases and communications
relating to periods after our initial public offering in November 1999, including fiscal years 2000 through 2006 and the interim quarters, as well as the revenue and earnings per share guidance for the first quarter of fiscal 2007 (ended
July 31, 2006), should not be relied upon. We indicated, however, that because the review was ongoing, we were not yet able to estimate the extent and timing of adjustments that would be required. We stated that we believed that the majority of
the additional non-cash expense would result from revisions to measurement dates for options granted in fiscal years 2000 through 2004 and that the changes in the affected measurement dates would cause non-cash stock-based deferred compensation
charges to be amortized in future periods. Finally, we stated that we expected to incur significant legal and professional fees associated with the Special Committees review and the restatement process.

On September 12, 2006, December 11, 2006, and March 12, 2007 we filed Form 12b-25
with the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that we would be unable to timely file quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended July 31, 2006, October 31, 2006, and January 31, 2007, respectively, until
the stock option review had been completed.



During the course
of its investigation, the Special Committee collected approximately 1,502 gigabytes of electronic data and reviewed more than 100,000 hard copy documents. The electronic data was filtered using a search term glossary, yielding 143 gigabytes (or
approximately 7.1 million pages) of unique data for review. The Special Committee conducted 29 substantive interviews of 24 current and former employees and directors. Four former employees declined the Special Committees request for an
interview.



On December 12, 2006, the Special Committee
presented the findings of its stock option investigation to our Board of Directors and proposed various remedial measures. The findings of the Special Committee and the remedial measures proposed by the Special Committee are described below.



Findings



As disclosed above, our Board of Directors appointed a Special Committee to
review our past stock option practices. On December 12, 2006, the Special Committee presented its findings to, and recommended certain remedial measures for adoption by, the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors accepted all of the
findings of the Special Committee and has adopted, or is in the process of adopting, all of the remedial measures proposed. As a result of the Special Committees investigation, as well as our internal review of our historical financial
statements, we have determined the following:



| |  |  | Between our initial public offering in November 1999 and May 2006, the vast majority of our stock options were granted by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors (which consisted of two or three independent directors). In a few instances, the full Board of Directors granted stock options during this period. From June 2005 to May 2006, the Compensation Committee granted a majority of our stock
options, awarding stock option grants to individuals pursuant to our annual grant of stock options, as well as to officers, any individual grant covering 20,000 or more underlying shares, and certain individual grants covering less than 20,000
shares, while the Stock Option Committee (which consisted of our Chief Executive Officer) awarded grants to individuals receiving less than 20,000 underlying shares. In the vast majority of cases, the granting body granted the stock options pursuant
to an action by unanimous written consent, as opposed to a resolution at a meeting of the granting body. The written consents contained an effective as of date, which date we used as the grant date and measurement date of the stock
options. However, in a significant number of instances, we had not completed the required actions necessary to grant stock options by the effective date of the written consent. Accordingly, 112 of the total of 127 grant dates were
established based on a stated effective date, or grant date, that differed from the date on which the options appear to have been actually approved after a thorough review of the evidence. In almost every such instance, the price of our
Common Stock on the actual approval date for the grant was higher than the price of our Common Stock on the stated grant date. The Special Committee found that, particularly prior to 2005, grant dates were selected by certain members of management
with the benefit of hindsight based on perceived historical low points in our stock price. The misdating occurred with respect to grants to all levels of employees. As a result of these activities, we have recorded additional deferred stock-based
compensation to reflect the difference in our stock price from the stated grant date to the actual grant date, and amortized the deferred stock-based compensation over the appropriate vesting period of each stock option.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | There was very limited electronic or document evidence available to review in regard to the period from November 1999 to the middle of calendar 2001. Furthermore,
several of our former employees who participated in the stock option granting process during this period declined a request to be interviewed by the Special Committee. Therefore, the Special Committee found it difficult to draw conclusions about the
roles or actions of employees during this period with regard to the stock option granting

| | practices. However, based on a comparison of grants made during this period to our stock price during this period and forensic evidence relating to the dates
unanimous written consents were prepared and stock options were entered into our Equity Edge® database, the Special Committee found it highly likely that grant dates and prices were selected with the benefit of hindsight during this period.
| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | For the period from the middle of calendar 2001 to February 2005, the Special Committee found direct evidence that grant dates were selected with the benefit of
hindsight. The Special Committee also found that most of the beneficiaries of these stock option grants were new hires, not senior officers, and that there was no evidence that those involved sought to benefit themselves or senior officers
exclusively. We believe that the person primarily responsible for our stock option granting practices during this period was our former Chief Financial Officer, Robert Verheecke, who ceased serving as our Chief Financial Officer on May 2, 2005
and whose employment with us terminated on December 31, 2005. Mr. Verheecke declined a request to be interviewed by the Special Committee.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Beginning in February 2005, we implemented a calendar system, which set forth in advance the dates on which we were to grant stock options. The calendar imposed a
more standardized practice for the timing of the grant of stock options. However, the Special Committee found that the calendar served more as a guideline than an established procedure, since even after the calendar was implemented the actual grant
dates deviated from the scheduled grant dates for approximately half of the grants. In a majority of the cases, the deviations from the calendar date ranged from one to several days.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Special Committee found that our internal controls relating to stock option granting practices were deficient in the following ways:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We either lacked written stock option procedures or our procedures were generally unresponsive to inherent process risks.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our stock option granting practices were haphazard and disorganized. For example, (i) we frequently submitted stock option grant approval documentation to the
Compensation Committee weeks after the stated grant date; (ii) the Compensation Committee was asked on several occasions to approve two or three different stock option grants at the same time; and (iii) management frequently added
employees to stock option grants after the stated grant date.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Management involved in the stock option granting process and interviewed by the Special Committee was generally unaware of the legal requirements associated with
the approval of stock option grants; specifically, management uniformly sought board approval of options as of a date prior to the date approval was sought.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Management involved in the stock option granting process and interviewed by the Special Committee was generally unaware of the accounting implications of selecting
stock option grant dates retroactively, and did not know that choosing a grant date based on a perceived historical low in the price of our stock should have resulted in a significant negative impact to our income statement. Moreover, such
management was generally equally unaware that the accounting implications of such conduct were not properly disclosed in our publicly filed reports.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Compensation Committee generally failed to recognize our internal control failures relating to stock option grants. In addition, the Compensation Committee did
not have an adequate knowledge base to appreciate the accounting and legal implications of the above-described practices. Specifically, the Compensation Committee routinely approved stock option grants on an as of basis and did not
inquire into the propriety of retroactively selecting grant dates.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In May 2001, we hired Robert Verheecke as our Chief Financial Officer. We granted Mr. Verheecke options to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock on a stated
effective date of July 31, 2001, at an exercise price of $16.75 per share. During the option investigation, however, the Special Committee discovered evidence that the Compensation Committee had originally granted the 100,000 options to
Mr. Verheecke pursuant to a unanimous written consent on May 1, 2001, at an exercise price of $30.50. The Special Committee concluded that the option grant to Mr. Verheecke was improperly disclosed and

| | improperly accounted for in our financial records. We have determined that a grant was made on May 1, 2001 and then re-priced on July 31, 2001,
and, as a result, the grant should have been accounted for under the variable method of accounting. Mr. Verheecke realized a gain of $875,717 associated with the change in value from May 1, 2001 to the new option price date of
July 31, 2001. Mr. Verheecke remained an employee until December 31, 2005, although he ceased serving as our Chief Financial Officer on May 2, 2005.
| | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We use the Equity Edge software system to track stock option activity. When a grant is made, our accounting department prints the stock option grant notice
agreement from the Equity Edge system. During the period from about May 2005 to May 2006, two non-officer members of the accounting department downloaded the Equity Edge stock option grants to Word files. The print date of the grant notice
agreements sent to employees was then manually changed to match the date that stock administration was notified that the grants were approved by the Compensation Committee or the Stock Option Committee. This was apparently done to make it appear
that employees were being notified of their grants soon after the grant approvals were received. The more senior of the two non-officer employees authorized this practice after learning from our auditors of a possible change in the accounting rules
that would require employees to be notified of grants soon after they were approved in order to support the measurement date as the date of grant approval. The date changes to the print dates did not impact the grant date or measurement date of the
stock options. The Special Committee determined that only these two non-officer employees were aware of this practice. On December 12, 2006, as recommended by the Special Committee, we requested and received the immediate resignation of the
more senior of the two non-officer employees.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On November 18, 1999, the day before our initial public offering, our Board of Directors granted options at a board meeting to a large group of individuals at
an exercise price of $120.00 per share. During the course of the investigation, we concluded that ten individuals who were granted stock options at that board meeting were not our employees as of the stated grant date but rather became our employees
after the initial public offering. The latest measurement date for the stock options granted to these ten individuals was January 24, 2000. Since our stock option plans authorize us to grant stock options only to employees and other service
providers, the grant date of an option award to each individual could not be earlier than such individuals date of employment with us. Accordingly, the appropriate measurement date for each of the ten options is the date on which the employee
began his or her employment with us. These individuals provided no services to us prior to the beginning of their employment.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Special Committee reviewed the conduct of various current and former employees in connection with its investigation. A summary of the findings of the Special
Committee with respect to certain individuals follows:
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Brian NeSmith (our current President and Chief Executive Officer and a director): The Special Committee concluded that Mr. NeSmith participated in the
stock option granting process and was aware of the fact that certain grant dates were selected with the benefit of hindsight. However, the Special Committee concluded that Mr. NeSmith did not appreciate the accounting or legal implications of
these actions. The Special Committee noted that Mr. NeSmith did not benefit monetarily from any stock option grants for which the measurement dates have changed as a result of the investigation of historical stock option grants. Further, the
Special Committee noted that Mr. NeSmith has not received any bonuses that were tied to our financial performance during the period in which our stock option granting processes were flawed. The Special Committee reviewed with our Board of
Directors Mr. NeSmiths unrealized gains on those of our stock options that were the subject of changed measurement dates, including the portion of such gains associated with back dating. Based on the closing price of our Common Stock on
December 12, 2006, Mr. NeSmith held unexercised stock options that were subject to changed measurement dates with a combined in-the-money value of $2.6 million, of which $91,980 is attributable to improper measurement dates.
Mr. NeSmith voluntarily agreed to amend the exercise price of his stock option grants to eliminate any gains associated with improper measurement dates. As recommended by the Special

| | Committee, our Board of Directors (i) will institute continuing education for Mr. NeSmith with respect to legal and accounting matters important to
our ongoing efforts to comply with current regulations, minimize risks and improve corporate governance, and (ii) has directed Mr. NeSmith to develop a plan to elevate the knowledge and experience among his direct reports, and to develop
cross-functional education for all who are involved in the equity grant process.
| | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Kevin Royal (our current Chief Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer):The Special Committee concluded that there was no evidence that
Mr. Royal was aware of improper actions relating to our stock option granting practices. Furthermore, the Special Committee noted that Mr. Royal did not benefit from our improper stock option granting practices. Mr. Royal did not join
Blue Coat until May 2, 2005, and was not actively involved in stock administration.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | David Hanna (our current Chairman of the Board, a director, a member of the Compensation Committee, a member of the Audit Committee and a member of the
Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee):The Special Committee concluded that Mr. Hanna was sent several e-mails that indicated that stock option grant dates and prices were being selected with the benefit of hindsight. However, since it
was unclear whether Mr. Hanna received and reviewed all of the emails in question, the Special Committee could not conclude with substantial certainty that Mr. Hanna was aware of our improper stock option dating practices. Irrespective of
this uncertainty, the Special Committee concluded that Mr. Hanna did not appreciate the accounting or legal implications of these matters. The Special Committee also concluded that while it would have been better if members of the Compensation
Committee had focused more on the prices at, and dates on, which stock options were granted, the directors were entitled to presume that matters brought before them for action were procedurally proper and consistent with applicable legal and
accounting standards. The Special Committee noted that Mr. Hanna did not benefit monetarily from any stock option grants for which the measurement dates have changed as a result of the investigation of historical stock option grants. Further,
the Special Committee noted that Mr. Hanna has not received any bonuses that were tied to our financial performance during the period in which our stock option granting processes were flawed. The Special Committee reviewed with our Board of
Directors Mr. Hannas unrealized gains on those of our stock options that were the subject of changed measurement dates, including the portion of such gains associated with back dating. Based on the closing price of our Common Stock on
December 12, 2006, Mr. Hanna held unexercised stock options that were the subject of changed measurement dates with a combined in-the-money value of $162,520, of which $158,610 is attributable to improper measurement dates. Mr. Hanna
voluntarily agreed to amend the exercise price of his stock options to eliminate any holding gains associated with improper measurement dates.

| |  |  | Cameron Laughlin (our current General Counsel):The Special Committee concluded that Ms. Laughlin was aware of the fact that grant dates were selected
with the benefit of hindsight and should have appreciated the legal significance of these actions. The Special Committee noted that Ms. Laughlin had limited public company securities and corporate governance experience prior to joining us. The
Special Committee concluded that while Ms. Laughlin was partially responsible for some of the improvements in our stock option granting process, these improvements were not the result of her appreciation of the fundamental failure of the
process to properly select or record option grant dates. The Special Committee noted that Ms. Laughlin has been forthcoming with the Special Committee, and that it believed that she is credible and trustworthy. The Special Committee recommended
that we open a search for a new General Counsel, with more experience in public company securities and corporate governance matters. The Special Committee also recommended that outside counsel take responsibility for financial reporting and
SEC-related matters in the interim period. The Special Committee was not opposed to Ms. Laughlins remaining an employee of Blue Coat, provided that she is not responsible for financial reporting and SEC-related matters. The Special
Committee reviewed with our Board of Directors Ms. Laughlins realized and unrealized gains on her exercised stock options and outstanding options that were the subject of changed measurement dates, including the portion of such gains
associated with back dating. Based on the

dates with a combined in-the-money value of $134,362, of which $23,091 is attributable to improper measurement dates. Ms. Laughlin has also realized gains in the amount of $215,764 from the sale of our Common Stock associated with stock options
that were the subject of changed measurement dates, of which $36,182 is attributable to improper measurement dates. Ms. Laughlin voluntarily agreed to amend the exercise price of her stock option grants to eliminate any gains associated with
improper measurement dates.

| |  |  | Robert Verheecke (our former Chief financial Officer):The Special Committee concluded that Mr. Verheecke was aware of the fact that stock option grant
dates and prices were selected with the benefit of hindsight. The Special Committee also concluded that Mr. Verheeckes actions in connection with the improper authorization, recording and reporting of stock option pricing raise serious
concerns. The Special Committee noted that because Mr. Verheecke declined a request to be interviewed by the Special Committee to explain his actions, the Special Committee was unable to determine his actual mental state with respect to this
practice. Nevertheless, the Special Committee determined that he should have appreciated the accounting and disclosure implications of such actions. Mr. Verheecke realized gains in the amount of $5.0 million from the sale of our Common Stock
associated with stock options that were the subject of changed measurement dates, of which (i) $30,000 is attributable to improper measurement dates, and (ii) $875,717 represented gains associated with the aforementioned repricing of his
original stock option grant. As recommended by the Special Committee, we are reviewing with outside counsel whether we should pursue disgorgement against Mr. Verheecke.

| |  |  | Non-officer Member of our Accounting Staff:As noted above, the Special Committee concluded that a non-officer member of the accounting department
intentionally altered certain stock option grant notifications, although this had no effect on the selection of grant dates or on the actual measurement dates. The Special Committee concluded that the non-officer employee was also aware of the fact
that grant dates and prices were selected with the benefit of hindsight and should have appreciated the accounting and disclosure implications of these actions. As recommended by the Special Committee, we requested and received the non-officer
employees immediate resignation on December 12, 2006. The Special Committee reviewed with our Board of Directors the non-officer employees realized and unrealized gains on his or her exercised stock options and outstanding options
that were the subject of changed measurement dates, including the portion of such gains associated with back dating. Based on the closing price of our Common Stock on December 12, 2006, the non-officer employee held unexercised stock options
that were the subject of changed measurement dates with a combined in-the-money value of $175,173, of which $37,278 is attributable to improper measurement dates. The non-officer employee has also realized gains in the amount of $882,156 from the
sale of our Common Stock associated with stock options that were the subject of changed measurement dates, of which $160,548 is attributable to improper measurement dates. The non-officer employee voluntarily agreed to amend the exercise price of
his or her stock option grants to eliminate any gains associated with improper measurement dates.

| |  |  | Other Current Employees: The Special Committee determined that several other lower level employees in human resources and stock administration were also
involved in the stock option granting process and were aware to varying degrees that option grant dates and prices were being selected with the benefit of hindsight. As recommended by the Special Committee, our Board of Directors will require that
these employees undergo training to educate them on the legal, accounting and other issues surrounding stock option granting.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other Former Employees:The Special Committee reviewed with our Board of Directors the realized and unrealized gains on our stock of several former officers
and employees, including the portion of such gains derived from improper measurement dates associated with stock options. As recommended by the Special Committee, we are reviewing with outside counsel whether we should pursue disgorgement against
such persons.

Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements



Our management reviewed the information made available to it by the Special
Committee and performed its own detailed review of historical stock option grants as part of the effort to establish appropriate measurement dates. In connection with these procedures, our management also conducted certain recertification procedures
as part of the process of determining if there was evidence that would prevent our Board of Directors and current management from relying upon the work performed by the accounting, finance and legal personnel as it relates to fiscal years 2004 and
2005, and the extent to which our prior accounting and controls can be relied upon for purposes of the preparation and certification of the restated consolidated financial statements.



As a result of the Special Committees investigation and findings, as well as our internal review and recertification
procedures, we have recorded additional stock-based compensation expense for numerous stock option grants made from November 1999 through May 2006 to correctly account for stock option grants for which the Special Committee or management
determined that the actual measurement date for accounting purposes was different from the stated grant date. Further, since Section 421 of the Internal Revenue Code precludes granting Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) with
exercise prices below the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, and the majority of our stock options were found to have been granted below fair market value, we have also recorded liabilities for payroll and withholding taxes,
and associated penalties and interest in each of the four fiscal years ending April 30, 2006 in connection with the disqualification of ISO tax treatment for certain stock options. However, since we have fully reserved our deferred tax assets,
we did not record any net change to our deferred tax assets associated with this restatement.



In addition to the deferred stock-based compensation amounts, and related payroll and withholding taxes, penalties, and interest resulting from the revision in measurement dates for historical stock option grants, our
internal review also identified certain other errors in accounting determinations and judgments relating to stock-based compensation that have also been corrected in our restated consolidated financial statements. These adjustments are described in
more detail below. Also included in this restatement are certain other non-stock-based compensation items which had not previously been recorded due to their immateriality, but which management was aware of outside of the course of the investigation
and the procedures described above. These other non-stock-based compensation items are immaterial both individually and in aggregate, and relate solely to the timing of certain operating expenses between periods such that the net impact to all
periods is zero.



As a result of the findings of the stock
option investigation and our recertification procedures described above, our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of April 30, 2005 and for the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004 have been restated. We have also
restated our selected consolidated financial data as of and for the years ended April 30, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002, which is included in Item 6, Selected Consolidated Financial Data, and the unaudited quarterly financial data
for each of the quarters in the years ended April 30, 2006 and 2005, with the exception of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 (which has never been filed), which is included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary
Data. Our restated interim financial statements for the quarterly and year-to-date periods ended July 31, 2005, October 31, 2005, and January 31, 2006 will be included in our quarterly reports on Forms 10-Q for the periods
ended July 31, 2006, October 31, 2006 and January 31, 2007, respectively. We also recorded adjustments affecting our previously-reported financial statements for fiscal years 2000 and 2001. Adjustments are also reported in our
consolidated statements of operations in subsequent periods based on the accounting treatment for exercises, modifications and expenses recognized over the remaining option vesting periods.

As mentioned above, our internal review and recertification procedures also
identified certain other errors in accounting determinations and judgments relating to stock-based compensation statements. These errors include: (a) incorrect amortization of cheap stock; (b) incorrect accounting for a pre-IPO loan issued
to exercise stock options as a fixed award rather than as a variable award; (c) incorrect accounting for modifications to equity awards; and (d) incorrect amortization of acquisition-related option grants. The errors in accounting for
stock-based compensation expense are described more fully below.



Correction
in the Amortization of Cheap Stock



We analyzed and
recalculated the compensation expense associated with our stock options granted before our initial public offering (IPO), also known as cheap stock, due to an accounting error in calculating the amount and timing of adjustments to
deferred stock-based compensation expense for unvested options upon employee termination. The correction of these accounting errors resulted in the recognition of a benefit in fiscal years 2000 through 2002 and additional expense in fiscal years
2003 through 2005, for a net reduction of stock-based compensation of $8.3 million.



Variable Accounting for a Pre-IPO Loan



We
historically accounted for all options exercised with interest-bearing loans as fixed awards. In reviewing stock options exercised with loans, we identified one non-recourse loan with a fixed interest rate related to the exercise of pre-IPO stock
options. In this case, the option price should not have been determined until the options were exercised as the pre-IPO loan did not meet the requirements for fixed accounting. Specifically, depending on when the non-recourse loan was repaid (i.e.,
when the option was exercised), the amount of non-recourse interest calculated as part of the exercise price would differ, resulting in a variable exercise price. We had previously concluded that compensation expense for stock options exercised with
this loan was fixed on the date of grant. The change in accounting for the stock options exercised with this loan from fixed accounting to the variable method of accounting resulted in the net reversal of $2.8 million in stock-based compensation
expense for the fiscal years 2000 and 2001. The reduction of $9.6 million in fiscal 2001 relates to stock-based compensation expense recorded in prior periods that was reversed in fiscal 2001 to appropriately adjust the value of the stock options
exercised with the pre-IPO loan in accordance with the variable method of accounting.

Modifications to Equity Awards



We also identified stock options that had been modified due to the terms of separation agreements and employment agreements.
Based on a review of separation agreements and the related employment agreements, we determined that the terms of certain agreements modified certain provisions of the related options, specifically the vesting provisions or the term by providing
additional time to exercise. Pursuant to the guidelines set forth in APB 25 and FIN 44, modifications that renew or extend the life of fixed awards, or provide for an extension or renewal if a specified future separation from employment occurs,
result in a new measurement date. The modification of the related stock option grants resulted in additional stock-based compensation expense of $0.8 million.



Correction in the Amortization of Acquisition Related Option Grants



We originally adopted the graded method of amortizing stock-based compensation expense. However, we incorrectly used a straight-line amortization method
to amortize compensation expense related to an acquisition in fiscal 2006. For stock-based compensation expense related to an acquisition in fiscal 2001, we also incorrectly accounted for the adjustment to stock-based compensation expense for
terminated employees to reflect stock-based compensation expense for vested options as if it had been recorded on a straight-line basis. The correction in amortization of acquisition-related stock-based compensation expense resulted in a net
reduction in stock-based compensation expense of $7.1 million for the fiscal years 2001 through 2006.



Payroll and Withholding Taxes, Penalties and Interest



Internal Revenue Code Section 421 prohibits the granting of Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) with an exercise price below fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. As described
above, nearly all of our stock options granted since November 18, 1999 were subject to revised measurement dates. Therefore, many of the stock options that were granted as ISOs should have been treated as Non-Qualified (NQ)
stock options for purposes of payroll taxes. We did not withhold Federal Income Taxes, State Income Taxes, FICA or Medicare on the options that were issued as ISOs that should have been treated as NQ stock options (due to their below-market
grant pricing). However, it is our position that in certain circumstances we should have withheld such taxes. As described below, we have accrued payroll and withholding taxes, penalties and interest for these NQ stock options and included these
amounts in the restated financial statements.



However, since
the statute of limitations has expired for years prior to calendar year 2003, we have reversed expense recorded in prior periods and recognized a benefit in the periods in which the statute of limitations for the respective option exercise expires.
In most instances, ISOs which were exercised as a same-day sale were properly treated as a disqualifying disposition and the income was reported on the individuals Form W-2. In these situations, we accrued payroll taxes, penalties and
interest but did not accrue Federal or State Income Taxes as the income from the disqualifying disposition of stock options was included on the employees Form W-2 and applicable State and Federal Income Taxes were paid by the employee.
For certain ISOs which subsequently converted to a NQ stock option, we accrued Federal and State Income Taxes, payroll taxes, penalties and interest at the applicable rates, if the income was not reported on the individuals Form W-2.



The combination of taxes, penalties and interest resulted in a
net compensation charge of $2.0 million for fiscal years 2000 through 2006.



We believe that the unpaid employee portion of taxes represents joint and several obligations of both us and our employees. However, the change of status of employee options from ISO to NQ was a result of flaws in our
stock option granting practices as discussed above. We believe that the employees would likely have a valid claim against us in the event we attempted to recover a portion of the additional taxes, penalties and interest from them. Accordingly, we
believe it is appropriate to accrue both the employee and the employer portions of all taxes. In addition, we believe such additional taxes, penalties and interest should be recorded in the respective years in which the underlying in-the-money
options were exercised. Since we have fully reserved our deferred tax assets, we did not record any net change to our deferred tax assets associated with this restatement.

Methodology Used for Assessing Measurement Dates in Restated Consolidated Financial Statements



In determining the appropriate measurement date for historical stock option
grants, we used the guidance set forth in the letter dated September 19, 2006 from the Office of the Chief Accountant (Chief Accountants Letter) and in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Statement No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, which defines the measurement date as the first date on which are known both (1) the number of shares that an individual employee is entitled to receive and (2) the option or purchase
price, if any. Therefore, to establish a measurement date, our methodology required that appropriate approvals had occurred and both criteria (1) and (2) were met.



Our methodology resulted in the selection of a measurement date that coincided with the date on which there was the
strongest evidence that all required granting actions related to the approval of the stock option grant had occurred and the terms of the option were determined with finality. We believe that the last granting action signifies the date upon which
the required approvals and both criteria were met to establish a determinable measurement date. The hierarchy of the categories of evidence is explained below.



Categories of Evidence



We established categories of evidence to determine measurement dates and ranked the categories from strongest to weakest, and selected the
strongest evidence available for each grant as the measurement date. Evidence categorized as type A is generally considered to be more persuasive than evidence categorized as type B, which in turn is considered to be more
persuasive than type C. Our methodology incorporated the review of all evidence identified, as well as a thorough consideration of the facts and circumstances related to each grant date as well as the individual grants, including whether
administrative delays were reasonable or whether back-dating occurred.



Category A evidence consists of definitive evidence supporting the fact that all required granting actions had occurred on the indicated date. Category A evidence is comprised of the following: 1) Minutes of a regular
meeting of the Compensation Committee at which both members were physically present and which minutes were signed by the Secretary for the meeting. The date of the meeting is used as the measurement date; 2) Fax dates on signature pages for
Unanimous Written Consents (UWCs) from both Compensation Committee members. The latest fax receipt date is used as the measurement date; 3) Emails from the legal department communicating conclusively that signatures and/or approvals have
been obtained from all Compensation Committee members, or the Stock Option Committee for individual grants of less than 20,000 shares to non-officer employees. The email date is used as the measurement date; and 4) One fax date signature page for
the UWC from one Compensation Committee member. The associated fax date is used as the measurement date.



Category B evidence consists of evidence that, while not providing definitive support for the selected grant as is the case with Category
A, provides a reasonable basis to form a conclusion as to the measurement date for stock options in consideration of the guidance set forth in the Chief Accountants Letter. Category B evidence is comprised of the following: 1) Date of the next
board meeting, in cases in which the required Compensation Committee or board member signatures are all on one page of the UWC; 2) Email evidence from others involved in the stock option granting process (such as the finance and human resource
departments) indicating that the grant had been approved by the Compensation Committee; 3) Option notice date (Equity Edge date stamp on option notice) indicating the date the notice was printed. We note that this type of evidence was not utilized
in the period in which there was evidence of manual edits to date stamps on the grant notifications, as described above under Findings; 4) Option notice date (date of employees signature, postmark, or fax) for periods when the date
stamp on the option notice is not available; 5) Other forms of evidence indicating that a grant occurred at a prior date such as the date of SEC filings (Forms 3, 4, or 5), same-day-sale for vested options, or the Summary of Stock Purchase (annual
statement listing an employees activity in Blue Coat securities); and 6) Option exercise date (used for 1 grant).

##### Table of Contents

Category C evidence is comprised only of the Equity Edge entry date. The Equity Edge
entry date is used as the measurement date when other forms of evidence for determining measurement dates are not available or are not as persuasive. We relied on the Equity Edge input date as the measurement date in 10 instances. We recognize,
however, that while grants are typically entered into Equity Edge after approval, the entry of data into Equity Edge for 4 grant dates, representing 809 individual grants, occurred prior to either the UWC date or the metadata indicating when that
grant was prepared. We did not use the Equity Edge entry date for these 4 grants. In the few instances when Equity Edge was pre-populated, it was typically when the population was known in advance, such as our option exchange program that occurred
in September 2001 or our annual year-end grants for current employees. In these situations, we reasonably assumed that the pre-population of grant data into Equity Edge occurred for administrative convenience rather than to price the grant at a
lower value. Therefore, we did not rule out altogether the use of Equity Edge entry dates, but used the Equity Edge entry date as the measurement date only in the absence of stronger evidence and only when we could reasonably conclude that the terms
of the awards were not known with certainty until the Equity Edge input date.



Impact of Judgments and Interpretations on Restatement Amounts



As stated above, we considered the guidance provided in the Chief Accountants Letter in determining the grant dates for our historical stock option grants and in calculating the associated amount of incremental
stock-based compensation expense to record. Specifically, we used all reasonably available relevant information to form reasonable conclusions as to the most likely option granting actions that occurred and the dates on which such actions occurred
in determining the parameters of the restatement. This process required us to make certain interpretations and assumptions in order to form the resulting conclusions. There is the risk that the interpretations and assumptions we made could be
disputed by others, or that we did not draw the correct conclusions. Further, there is risk that the information considered was inaccurate or incomplete. All of these risks are particularly acute where there was incomplete documentation.



We prepared a sensitivity analysis for certain categories of evidence
where the specific approval of a grant cannot be defined with certainty within a range of likely dates. The sensitivity analysis is formulated to provide the reader of the financial statements with the potential expense impact of a change in
measurement dates. We summarized the categories of measurement date evidence into three groups for purposes of the sensitivity analysis.



First, we identified the evidence categories that provide a high level of assurance that the approval of the grant happened on the indicated date. Group 1
consists of all evidence listed above in Category A, as well as evidence from the next board meeting from Category B, since such evidence, as a group, is considered to produce the most definitive evidence that approval of the related
grant occurred on the revised measurement date. For these categories of evidence, we do not believe it necessary to prepare a sensitivity analysis.



Next, we grouped all remaining evidence from Category B into Group 2. While we believe this evidence represents the most likely dates that the terms of
the awards were first fixed and approved, we do not believe that the evidence is as strong as Group 1. For this second group, we applied an expense sensitivity methodology to examine the largest possible variation in stock-based compensation expense
within a range of possible approval dates for each grant. We developed a range using the later of the grant date specified in the UWC as the beginning of the range or, in instances where we had the UWC data file, we used the last modified date of
the file as the beginning of the range as we believe the electronic evidence is a much stronger indicator of the date the UWC was prepared. We then used the later of the revised measurement date or the Equity Edge input date for each grant as the
end of the range. While we believe the evidence used to determine the revised measurement dates in these categories to be the best available, we also believe that illustrating differences in stock-based compensation expense using differing
methodologies provides the reader of the financial statements insight into the potential fluctuations in stock-based compensation expense within these evidence categories.

After developing the range for the grant dates within the second group, we selected the highest and
lowest closing price of our stock within the range for each grant and calculated the difference in stock-based compensation expense for the grants in Group 2 using the highest and the lowest stock price within the range, and compared the aggregate
results to the stock-based compensation expense that resulted from using this groups best available evidence. Had we used the highest closing price of our stock within the range resulting from the above methodology for each grant
in Group 2, our total restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision in measurement dates would have increased by $13.8 million. Had we used the lowest closing price of our stock within the range resulting from the above
methodology for each grant, our total restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision in measurement dates would have decreased by $15.6 million.



Group 3 consisted of the evidence from Category C. Similar to the expense sensitivity methodology used for Group 2, we
developed a range for each grant using the later of the grant date specified in the UWC as the beginning of the range or, in instances where we had the UWC data file, we used the last modified date of the file as the beginning of the range as we
believe the electronic evidence is a much stronger indicator of the date the UWC was prepared. We used the Equity Edge input date for each grant as the end of the range. Within the identified range we selected the highest and lowest closing price of
our stock within the range for each grant and calculated the difference in stock-based compensation expense for the grants in Group 3 using the highest and the lowest stock price within the range and compared the aggregate results to the stock-based
compensation expense that resulted from using this groups best available evidence. Had we used the highest closing price of our stock within the range resulting from the above methodology for each grant in Group 3, our total
restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision in measurement dates would have increased by $1.7 million. Had we used the lowest closing price of our stock within the range resulting from the above methodology for each grant,
our total restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision in measurement dates would have decreased by $3.3 million.

Remedial Measures



Management is committed to correcting the weaknesses identified above by implementing changes to our internal controls over financial reporting.
Management along with our Board of Directors has implemented, or is in the process of implementing, the following changes to our internal control systems and procedures:



| |  |  | We have adopted a policy requiring all option grants, whether to board members, officers or employees, be made on a predetermined schedule. Specifically,
grants to new employees or to recently promoted employees will be approved by the Compensation Committee or the Stock Option Committee, as applicable, after the employees first day of employment or the date of the employees promotion.
Annual grants to existing employees will be approved by the Compensation Committee at a meeting scheduled prior to the beginning of a fiscal year for a specified date in that fiscal year. Option grants to new hires and existing employees will be
effective on the date of grant, which will be the third Thursday of a calendar month following the date of approval. As a result, grants to new and promoted employees will be limited to one specific date each
month.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have adopted a policy limiting the granting authority of the different groups that grant stock options. The Stock Option Committees authority is limited to
the ability to make option grants that (i) are to individuals who are neither (a) executive officers of Blue Coat or members of our Board of Directors, nor (b) direct reports to a member of the Stock Option Committee, (ii) as to
any individual grant, consist of 20,000 or fewer underlying shares, and (iii) have an exercise price equal to or not less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the grant. The policy further requires that
any grants to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, be made by the Compensation Committee after recommendation from the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has
the authority to make all other grants permitted under our stock option plans.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have expanded the size of the Stock Option Committee from one to two directors. The Stock Option Committee previously consisted of our Chief Executive Officer,
Brian NeSmith. In the future, the Stock Option Committee will consist of our Chief Executive Officer and an independent director.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have adopted a policy requiring that all option grants by the Compensation Committee be approved at a meeting of the Compensation Committee, and that the actions
of such body be documented in minutes of the meeting. The policy prohibits the Compensation Committee from granting options by written consent. The policy allows the Stock Option Committee to document the grant of options by unanimous written
consent, provided that the written consent is signed by both members of the Stock Option Committee on or prior to the effective date of the written consent.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Special Committee has recommended, and we are in the process of implementing, a series of improvements in our internal controls. We intend to revise
documentation and to create appropriate controls for annual, new hire and promotion grant preparation, presentation for approval, entry into Equity Edge, and notification to employees. We have already adopted a specific internal control that all
internal approvals of stock option grants must be obtained prior to presentation for any Stock Option Committee or Compensation Committee action. We plan to develop an annual plan or budget for issuance of options, together with guidelines for the
number and types of awards that are offered to the different salary grades, which shall be reviewed and approved annually by the Compensation Committee after or in connection with the Board of Directors approval of the annual business plan.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer, we will establish cross-functional training for personnel in all areas associated with the stock option granting
process. The training will cover (i) the stock option and other equity award programs and related improvements to equity compensation controls, processes and procedures, (ii) the accounting implications of equity award grants, and
(iii) the legal and tax implications of equity award grants. We will also require all personnel responsible for stock option administration, including (i) the Chief Executive Officer and all direct reports, (ii) finance department
members, (iii) legal department members, (iv) human resource department members,

| | (v) stock administration department members, and (vi) all new employees involved in the above-listed functions or roles, be trained at least
annually. Finally, we will be formalizing our procedures for the use of Equity Audit, a module that interfaces directly with Equity Edge and enables auditing functionality of our stock option database.
| | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have established a search for an experienced General Counsel with particular strength in public company securities disclosure, financial reporting matters and
corporate governance. When hired, the new General Counsel will report directly to our Chief Executive Officer.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We plan to expand the size of our Board of Directors, focusing in particular on the relative degree to which each candidate has the ability to devote substantial
attention to Blue Coat matters, their expertise in areas that complement the strengths of other board members, and their experience with good corporate governance. Our Board of Directors has tasked our Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee with
reviewing current committee assignments, with a goal of changing such assignments to the extent deemed appropriate to even out the demands placed upon the members of the board, utilizing the particular strengths of the individual board members, and
ensuring that important matters are monitored sufficiently. Finally, we have established a Board of Directors policy that at least one member (on a rotating basis) of the Board of Directors should attend directors college or
the equivalent each year. The Board of Directors has also approved resolutions stating that specialized update training by board members in matters of corporate governance, executive and incentive compensation, and financial reporting are highly
encouraged.

Additionally, management is
investing in ongoing efforts to continuously improve the control environment and has committed considerable resources to the continuous improvement of the design, implementation, documentation, testing and monitoring of our internal controls.



Related Proceedings



Regulatory Inquiries. In July 2006, we were advised that the
SEC was conducting an informal inquiry into our historical stock option grants and accounting practices, In the Matter of Blue Coat Systems, Inc., SF-3165. We are cooperating with the investigation. The Company is also voluntarily cooperating with
requests for information from the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Northern District of California.



Derivative Lawsuits. On May 18, 2005, a purported shareholder derivative action was filed in the Superior Court of California, Santa
Clara County, alleging that certain of our officers and directors violated their fiduciary duties to us by making false or misleading statements about our prospects between February 20, 2004 and May 27, 2004. On July 17, 2006,
plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, adding allegations that certain current and former officers and directors violated their fiduciary duties to us since our initial public offering by granting and failing to account correctly for
stock options. The amended complaint seeks various relief on our behalf from the individual defendants. On September 8, 2006, another and substantively identical purported shareholder derivative action was filed against certain of our current
and former officers and directors. Both of these state derivative cases have been consolidated.



On August 8 and September 5, 2006, two purported shareholder derivative actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of California against certain of our current and former officers and directors. Like the state derivative actions, the federal derivative actions allege that certain of our current and former officers and directors violated their fiduciary
duties since our initial public offering by granting and failing to account correctly for stock options and seek various relief on our behalf from the individual defendants. Both of these federal cases have been consolidated.



Nasdaq. In August 2006, we failed to timely file our Form 10-K
for the year ended April 30, 2006, and in September 2006, December 2006 and March 2007, we failed to timely file our Form 10-Qs for the quarters ended July 31, 2006, October 31, 2006 and January 31, 2007, respectively, all
as a result of the ongoing Special

Committee investigation. Nasdaq promptly notified us that these failures to file periodic reports caused us to violate the requirements for continued listing
as set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). We requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the Panel) to petition for continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The hearing was held on September 14,
2006. On November 13, 2006, the Panel informed us that we would have until January 29, 2007 to file our Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2006, our Form 10-Q for the quarters ended July 31, 2006 and October 31, 2006,
and any required restatements. On January 18, 2007, we informed the Nasdaq Stock Market that we would not meet the January 29, 2007 deadline, because we had determined to seek pre-clearance from the Office of the Chief Accountant (the
OCA) of the Division of Corporate Finance, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, of our proposed accounting treatment and related disclosures. On January 24, 2007, the Panel denied our request for additional time to comply with
our filing obligations and determined to delist our shares effective as of the open of business on Tuesday, January 30, 2007, as the Panel had no additional authority to extend the filing deadlines. We promptly appealed the Panels
decision to the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council (the Listing Council). On January 26, 2007, the Listing Council called for review the earlier decision of the Panel requiring us to file all required restatements and
delinquent periodic reports by January 29, 2007, and stayed any suspension of trading of our securities pending further action by the Listing Council. We may submit additional information to the Listing Council by March 30, 2007. The
Listing Council will then review the Panels decision on the written record. We have filed our Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2006, our Form 10-Q for the quarters ended July 31, 2006, October 31, 2006 and
January 31, 2007, and what we believe to be all required restatements with the SEC. With these filings, we believe that we have remedied our non-compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14), subject to Nasdaqs affirmative completion
of its compliance protocols and its notification of us accordingly. However, if the SEC disagrees with the manner in which we have accounted for and reported the financial impact of past stock option grants, there could be further delays in filing
subsequent SEC reports that might result in delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Stock Market.



Costs of Restatement and Legal Activities. We have incurred substantial expenses for legal, accounting, tax and other professional services
in connection with the Special Committees investigation, our internal review and recertification procedures, the preparation of the April 30, 2006 consolidated financial statements and the restated consolidated financial statements, the
SEC investigation and the derivative litigation. These expenses were approximately $10.5 million in aggregate through the quarter ended January 31, 2007. We expect to continue to incur significant expense in connection with the derivative
litigation, the ongoing SEC investigation of our historical stock option practices, and our indemnity obligations related thereto, and other stock option investigation-related matters. There can be no assurance that our directors and
officers liability insurance will be sufficient to cover these costs. In addition, we expect to incur significant payment obligations to employees relating to adverse tax consequences as a result of granting options with exercise prices below
the fair market value of our common stock on the actual measurement dates.



Critical Accounting Policies



Our discussion
and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our
consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we
evaluate our estimates, including those related to Revenue Recognition and Related Receivable Allowances, Inventories, Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranty Obligations, Valuation of Goodwill, Valuation of Long-Lived and Identifiable Intangible
Assets, Restructuring Liabilities, Income Taxes, Contingencies, and Stock-Based Compensation. Estimates related to the restatement, due to their nature, are not evaluated on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and
various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and such differences could be material.

Revenue Recognition and Related Receivable Allowances



Our products include software that is essential to the functionality of the appliances. Additionally, we provide unspecified
software upgrades and enhancements related to the appliances through our maintenance contracts for most of our products. Accordingly, we account for revenue in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, and all related interpretations.



We
recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or performance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Evidence of an arrangement generally consists of customer
purchase orders and, in certain instances, sales contracts or agreements. Shipping terms and related documents, or written evidence of customer acceptance, when applicable, are used to verify delivery or performance.



Sales are made through distributors under agreements allowing for certain
stock rotation rights. Net revenue, and the related cost of net revenue, resulting from shipments to distributors are deferred until the distributors report that our products have been sold to a customer. Product revenue in China is deferred until
the customer registers the proxy appliance.



For sales made
direct to end-users and value-added resellers, we recognize product revenue upon transfer of title and risk of loss, which is generally upon shipment. We do not accept orders from these value-added resellers when we are aware that the value-added
reseller does not have an order from a customer. For the end-users and value-added resellers, we dont have significant obligations for future performance such as rights of return or pricing credits.



We assess that the sales price is fixed or determinable based on payment
terms and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment.



In an arrangement that includes multiple elements, such as appliances, maintenance, content filtering subscriptions and/or third-party software, we allocate revenue to each element using the residual method based on vendor specific
objective evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. Under the residual method, the



59



---

##### Table of Contents

amount of revenue allocated to delivered elements equals the total arrangement consideration less the aggregate fair value of any undelivered elements.
Vendor specific objective evidence of fair value is based on the price charged when the element is sold separately.



We accrue for warranty costs, and other allowances based on historical experience.



Maintenance and subscription revenue is initially deferred and recognized ratably over the life of the contract, with the
related expenses recognized as incurred. Maintenance and subscription contracts usually have a term of one year, but can extend to five years. Unearned maintenance and subscription contracts are included in deferred revenue.



When we bill customers for shipping, we record shipping cost in both net
revenue and cost of net revenue. If we do not charge customers for shipping, the cost incurred for shipping are reflected in cost of net revenue.



Probability of collection is assessed on a customer-by-customer basis. Our customers are subjected to a credit review process that evaluates the
customers financial condition and ability to pay for our products and services. If it is determined from the outset of an arrangement that collection is not probable based upon the review process, revenue is not recognized until cash receipt.



We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers
financial condition and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts. We analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer solvency, current economic and geographic trends, and changes in customer payment terms
and practices when evaluating the adequacy of such allowance, and any required changes in the allowance are recorded to general and administrative expense.



Inventories



Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods. Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or market using the first-in,
first-out method, after appropriate consideration has been given to obsolescence and inventory in excess of anticipated future demand. In assessing the ultimate recoverability of inventories, we are required to make estimates regarding future
customer demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected, additional write-offs and other charges against earnings may be required.



Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranty Obligations



Our customer agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying such customers against liabilities if our
products infringe a third partys intellectual property rights. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnification provisions and have not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.



Our Bylaws provide that we
shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Delaware law. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with
our officers and directors containing provisions that may require us, among other things, to indemnify such officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers and to
advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We expect to have indemnification obligations to certain current and former officers and directors in connection with matters relating
to the stock option investigation, as well as with certain of our outstanding litigation matters. See Item 3, Legal Proceedings, Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and Item 9A, Controls and
Procedures.

We accrue for warranty expenses in our cost of revenue at the time revenue is recognized and maintain an
accrual for estimated future warranty obligations based upon the relationship between historical and anticipated warranty costs and revenue volumes. If actual warranty expenses are greater than those projected, additional charges against earnings
would be required. If actual warranty expenses are less than projected, prior obligations would be reduced, providing a positive impact on our reported results. We generally provide a one-year warranty on hardware products and a 90-day warranty on
software products.



Valuation of Goodwill



We perform our annual goodwill impairment tests in our fourth quarter or
whenever indicators of impairment are present. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is highly subjective and requires significant judgment. For purposes of our annual impairment test, we considered our market capitalization
on the date of our impairment test (since we have only one reporting unit). Subsequent to the announcement of the results for the third quarter of fiscal 2006, which were below our expectations as well as below those of public market analysts and
investors, our stock price fell dramatically. In light of the significant reduction in market capitalization, we assessed the potential impairment of our goodwill by comparing our market capitalization on the date of the impairment test to our
goodwill balance and determined that no goodwill impairment existed at January 31, 2006. In addition, we performed our recurring annual review of goodwill in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 and again concluded that no impairment existed at
the end of our fiscal year.



Valuation of Long-Lived and Identifiable
Intangible Assets



We evaluate our long-lived and
identifiable intangible assets in accordance with FASB SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. We review our long-lived assets, including property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets, for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Events or changes in circumstances that could result in an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant
underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of acquired assets or the strategy for our business and significant negative industry or economic trends. Impairment is
recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value as calculated on a discounted cash flow basis.



Restructuring Liabilities



We have accrued through charges to Restructuring in our consolidated financial statements various restructuring liabilities, related to
employee severance costs, facilities closure and lease abandonment costs, and contract termination costs. Our restructuring liabilities for facilities closure and lease abandonment costs include various assumptions, such as the time period over
which abandoned facilities will be vacant, costs required to restore leased facilities to the condition stipulated in the related lease agreements, expected sublease terms, and expected sublease rates. We constantly monitor these assumptions and any
changes in these assumptions may result in a substantial increase or decrease to restructuring expense should different conditions prevail than were anticipated in original management estimates.



Income Taxes



We use the liability method to account for income taxes as required by SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes,
(SFAS No. 109). As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves determining our income tax
expense together with calculating the deferred income tax expense related to temporary differences resulting from the differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes, such as deferred revenue or deductibility of certain intangible
assets. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the consolidated balance sheets. We must then assess the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered through carry back to
prior years income or through the generation of future taxable income after consideration of tax planning strategies and then record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount we believe more likely than not will be
realized.

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex
tax laws. Our estimate for the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issues is highly judgmental. The Company accounts for income tax contingencies in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.



Contingencies



From time to time we are involved in various claims and legal proceedings. If management believes that a loss arising from
these matters is probable and can reasonably be estimated, we record the amount of the loss or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range and no point within the range is more probable than any other. As additional
information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur.



Stock-Based Compensation



We account for stock-based compensation for options granted to our employees
and members of our Board of Directors using Accounting Principles Board (APB) Statement No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, including Financial Accounting Standards Board
Interpretation (FIN) No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, and comply with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure Amendment of SFAS No. 123.



Under APB No. 25, stock-based compensation expense is measured on the
date in which the number of shares and exercise price are known, or fixed. If the number of shares or exercise price of the award is not fixed, the stock option is accounted for as a variable award until such time at which the stock option is
exercised, cancelled or expires.



For fixed stock awards,
stock-based compensation expense is calculated based on its intrinsic value, or the difference between the fair market value of our stock on the date the award is fixed and the awards exercise price. No stock-based compensation expense is
recognized if an awards intrinsic value is zero. Stock-based compensation expense associated with fixed stock option awards with a positive intrinsic value is recognized over the vesting period using the graded method, which results in greater
expense recorded in earlier years than the straight-line method.



For variable awards, the intrinsic value of our stock options is remeasured each period based on the difference between the fair market value of our stock as of the end of the reporting period and the awards exercise price. As a
result, the amount of compensation expense or benefit to be recognized each period fluctuates based on changes in the fair market value of our common stock from the end of the previous reporting period to the end of the current reporting period.
Stock-based compensation expense in any given period is calculated as the difference between total earned compensation calculated at the end of the period, less total earned compensation calculated at the beginning of the period. Stock-based
compensation expense for these awards is recognized over the vesting period using an accelerated method of recognition in accordance with FIN No. 28, Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plan, An
Interpretation of APB Opinions No. 15 and 25. Variable accounting is applied until the measurement date of the stock option is fixed, or the time at which the stock option is exercised, forfeited or expires.



We account for modifications to stock options under FIN No. 44, which
was effective July 1, 2000. Modifications include, but are not limited to, acceleration of vesting, extension of the exercise period following termination of employment and/or continued vesting while not providing substantive services.
Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in the period of modification for the intrinsic value of the vested portion of the award, including vesting that occurs while not providing substantive services, on the date of modification.

##### Table of Contents

We value stock options assumed in acquisitions based on their fair value using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model. The fair value of assumed options, less their intrinsic value, is included as a component of the purchase price. The intrinsic value of unvested stock options is recorded as deferred stock-based compensation and is amortized to
expense over the remaining vesting period of the stock options using the graded method.



Impact of Judgments and Interpretations on Restatement Amounts



As previously stated, we considered the guidance provided in the Chief Accountants Letter in determining the grant dates for our historical stock option grants and in calculating the associated amount of
incremental stock-based compensation expense to record. Specifically, we used all reasonably available relevant information to form reasonable conclusions as to the most likely option granting actions that occurred and the dates on which such
actions occurred in determining the parameters of the restatement. This process required us to make certain interpretations and assumptions in order to form the resulting conclusions. There is the risk that the interpretations and assumptions we
made could be disputed by others, or that we did not draw the correct conclusions. Further, there is risk that the information considered was inaccurate or incomplete. All of these risks are particularly acute where there was incomplete
documentation.



We prepared a sensitivity analysis for certain
categories of evidence where the specific approval of a grant cannot be defined with certainty within a range of likely dates. The sensitivity analysis is formulated to provide the reader of the financial statements with the potential expense impact
of a change in measurement dates. We summarized the categories of measurement date evidence into three groups for purposes of the sensitivity analysis. For a description of the difference categories of evidence that we identified, please see
Methodology Used for Assessing Measurement Dates in Restated Consolidated Financial StatementsCategories of Evidence within the Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements section of Item 7,
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.



First, we identified the evidence categories that provide a high level of assurance that the approval of the grant happened on the indicated date. Group 1
consists of all evidence listed in Category A, as well as evidence from the date of the next board meeting from Category B, since such evidence, as a group, is considered to produce the most definitive evidence that approval of the
related grant occurred on the revised measurement date. For these categories of evidence, we do not believe it necessary to prepare a sensitivity analysis.



Next, we grouped all remaining evidence from Category B into Group 2. While we believe this evidence represents the most likely dates that the terms of
the awards were first fixed and approved, we do not believe that the evidence is as strong as Group 1. For this second group, we applied an expense sensitivity methodology to examine the largest possible variation in stock-based compensation expense
within a range of possible approval dates for each grant. We developed a range using the later of the grant date specified in the UWC as the beginning of the range or, in instances where we had the UWC data file, we used the last modified date of
the file as the beginning of the range as we believe the electronic evidence is a much stronger indicator of the date the UWC was prepared. We then used the later of the revised measurement date or the Equity Edge input date for each grant as the
end of the range. While we believe the evidence used to determine the revised measurement dates in these categories to be the best available, we also believe that illustrating differences in stock-based compensation expense using differing
methodologies provides the reader of the financial statements insight into the potential fluctuations in stock-based compensation expense within these evidence categories.



After developing the range for the grant dates within the second group, we selected the highest and lowest closing price of
our stock within the range for each grant and calculated the difference in stock-based compensation expense for the grants in Group 2 using the highest and the lowest stock price within the range, and compared the aggregate results to the
stock-based compensation expense that resulted from using this groups best available evidence. Had we used the highest closing price of our stock within the range resulting from the above methodology for each grant in Group 2, our
total restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision in measurement dates would have increased by $13.8 million. Had we used the lowest closing price of our

##### Table of Contents

stock within the range resulting from the above methodology for each grant, our total restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision
in measurement dates would have decreased by $15.6 million.



Group 3 consisted of the evidence from Category C. Similar to the expense sensitivity methodology used for Group 2, we developed a range for each grant using the later of the grant date specified in the UWC as the beginning of the range or,
in instances where we had the UWC data file, we used the last modified date of the file as the beginning of the range as we believe the electronic evidence is a much stronger indicator of the date the UWC was prepared. We used the Equity Edge input
date for each grant as the end of the range. Within the identified range we selected the highest and lowest closing price of our stock within the range for each grant and calculated the difference in stock-based compensation expense for the grants
in Group 3 using the highest and the lowest stock price within the range and compared the aggregate results to the stock-based compensation expense that resulted from using this groups best available evidence. Had we used the
highest closing price of our stock within the range resulting from the above methodology for each grant in Group 3, our total restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision in measurement dates would have increased by $1.7
million. Had we used the lowest closing price of our stock within the range resulting from the above methodology for each grant, our total restated stock-based compensation adjustment relating to the revision in measurement dates would have
decreased by $3.3 million.

sensitivity analysis are presented below (in thousands):

prohibits the granting of Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) with an exercise price below fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. As described above, nearly all of our stock options granted since
November 18, 1999 were subject to revised measurement dates. Therefore, many of the stock options that were granted as ISOs should have been treated as Non-Qualified (NQ) stock options for purposes of payroll taxes. We did not
withhold Federal Income Taxes, State Income Taxes, FICA or Medicare on the options that were issued as ISOs that should have been treated as NQ stock options (due to their below-market grant pricing). However, it is our position that in
certain circumstances we should have withheld such taxes. As described below, we have accrued payroll and withholding taxes, penalties and interest for these NQ stock options and included these amounts in the restated financial statements.



However, since the statute of limitations has expired for
years prior to calendar year 2003, we have reversed expense recorded in prior periods and recognized a benefit in the periods in which the statute of limitations for the respective option exercise expires. In most instances, ISOs which were
exercised as a same-day sale were properly treated as a disqualifying disposition and the income was reported on the individuals Form W-2. In these situations, we accrued payroll taxes, penalties and interest but did not accrue Federal or State
Income Taxes as the income from the disqualifying disposition of stock options was included on the employees Form W-2 and applicable State and Federal Income Taxes were paid by the employee. For certain ISOs which subsequently
converted to a NQ stock option, we accrued Federal and State Income Taxes, payroll taxes, penalties and interest at the applicable rates, if the income was not reported on the individuals Form W-2.

The combination of taxes, penalties and interest resulted in a net compensation charge of $2.0 million
for fiscal years 2000 through 2006.



We believe that the unpaid
employee portion of taxes represents joint and several obligations of both us and our employees. However, the change of status of employee options from ISO to NQ was a result of flaws in our stock option granting practices as discussed above. We
believe that the employees would likely have a valid claim against us in the event we attempted to recover a portion of the additional taxes, penalties and interest from them. Accordingly, we believe it is appropriate to accrue both the employee and
the employer portions of all taxes. In addition, we believe such additional taxes, penalties and interest should be recorded in the respective years in which the underlying in-the-money options were exercised. Since we have fully reserved our
deferred tax assets, we did not record any net change to our deferred tax assets associated with this restatement.

Net revenue increased
by 47.3% to $141.7 million in fiscal 2006 from $96.2 million in fiscal 2005. The growth in net revenue from fiscal 2005 to fiscal 2006 was primarily attributable to continued market acceptance of our products, coupled with increased sales
and marketing efforts to broaden our market presence and expand our distribution channels. Our net revenue and market share in the proxy appliance market has shown meaningful growth in the last few years; however, during the second half of fiscal
2006 we started to see signs of slower growth in the proxy appliance market. We believe that any further gains in market share in the proxy appliance market will be more difficult to achieve than earlier gains in market share, and will occur more
slowly, if at all.



Demand for our products and related
services increased in fiscal 2005 compared to fiscal 2004, which resulted in an increase in net revenue of $30.1 million, or 45.6%, from the prior year. The increase in demand was primarily attributable to continued market acceptance of our products
resulting from investments in our sales and marketing organizations, as well as our focus on larger enterprise customers.



One of our North American customers accounted for 10.2%, 15.9% and 24.1% of our net revenue during the years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004,
respectively. As of April 30, 2006, no customer accounted for more than 10.0% of gross accounts receivable. As of April 30, 2005, one of our North American customers accounted for 11.3% of our gross accounts receivable.

In fiscal 2006, we
continued to experience strong growth in all geographic markets, except Asia. In fiscal 2005, we experienced strong growth from the prior year in all geographic markets.

Net revenue in North America increased $21.9 million in fiscal 2006, up 44.8% from prior year, primarily
as a result of increased demand for our products and services. Net revenue in North America increased $12.0 million in fiscal 2005, up 32.5% from the prior year, on strong demand, especially for our ProxySG appliances. Net revenue in North
America comprised a significant portion of the total net revenue primarily because we focused a substantial portion of our sales and marketing activities in North America.



Net revenue in Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) increased $24.1 million in fiscal 2006, up 79.9% from the
prior year. Net revenue in EMEA increased $10.5 million in fiscal 2005, up 53.8% from the prior year. The year-over-year increases in net revenue in EMEA for both fiscal 2006 and 2005 were primarily related to investments in our sales and marketing
organizations in the region and broader market acceptance of our products, coupled with continued leverage from our channel distribution model.



Net revenue in Asia decreased 2.7% to $16.6 million in fiscal 2006 from the prior year, partially attributable to the transition from a reseller model
within the region to a distribution model. Since we defer revenue on shipments to our distributors who have certain stock rotation rights until a point of sale report is received from the distributor stating that our products have been sold to a
customer, there is a delay in the timing of revenue recognition for certain orders. Net revenue in Asia increased 79.8% to $17.1 million in fiscal 2005 from the prior year as a result of increased demand for our products and related services as well
as increased investment in our sales and marketing organization in the Asia region.

|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Fiscal 2006 gross profit increased $34.0 million, or 52.6%, from the prior
year primarily due to higher net revenue. Gross profit as a percent of net revenue increased 2.4% from fiscal 2005 to fiscal 2006, which was primarily attributable to more favorable product pricing and improvements in product cost, as well as
increased absorption of fixed manufacturing costs due to increased net revenue. These factors were partially offset by continued investments in our service infrastructure to support our increasing customer base.



Gross profit for fiscal 2005 increased $20.0 million, representing a
44.7% increase from the prior year, which was consistent with the increase in net revenue. As a percentage of net revenue, gross profit in fiscal 2005 decreased slightly to 67.2% from 67.7% in fiscal 2004 due, in part, to our investments in our
service infrastructure (approximately $0.5 million of which related to the Cerberian acquisition), partially offset by the gross profit improvement associated with the increased absorption of fixed manufacturing and service costs resulting from the
increase in net revenue.



The gross profit amounts presented
above included stock-based compensation expense of approximately $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.1 million for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Research and development expense consists primarily of salaries and benefits,
prototype costs, and testing equipment costs.



Research and
development expense increased $8.9 million to $26.8 million in 2006 from $17.9 million in 2005. The increase in research and development expense was primarily attributable to increased headcount and related costs required to effect the
enhancement of our product portfolio, as well as increased spending on engineering prototype materials in order to enhance existing applications and address new product development. Approximately $0.8 million of the increase in research and
development expense from the prior year related to the increased headcount and related expenses from the acquisition of Permeo in March 2006.



Research and development expense in fiscal 2005 increased $4.4 million over the prior year. Research and development expense increased over the prior year
primarily due to an increase in headcount of 34 people hired to facilitate the continued development of our product portfolio, 7 of which resulted from the Cerberian acquisition in November 2004. Research and development expense for fiscal 2005
includes approximately $0.6 million related to the Cerberian acquisition.



Research and development expenses presented above included stock-based compensation expense of approximately $0.9 million, $1.5 million and $1.9 million for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



Research and development headcount was 176 at April 30, 2006, 116 at
April 30, 2005 and 82 at April 30, 2004. The acquisition of Permeo resulted in the addition of 28 people in the research and development organization in fiscal 2006. We believe that continued investment in product enhancements and new
product development is critical to achieving our strategic objectives. As a result, as our net revenue allows, we expect research and development expense to continue to increase in absolute dollars.

##### Table of Contents

Sales and marketing expense increased $17.5 million to $52.8 million in 2006 from $35.3 million
in fiscal 2005. The increase in sales and marketing expense was primarily attributable to increases in sales personnel, marketing program spending, and volume-related expenses such as commission payments and higher travel costs. Approximately $0.3
million of the increase in sales and marketing expense from the prior year related to increased headcount and related expenses from the acquisition of Permeo in March 2006.



Sales and marketing expense increased $9.7 million in fiscal 2005 from the prior year as we continued to execute our
strategy of expanding our market presence through investment in our sales and marketing organizations. Sales and marketing expense for fiscal 2005 includes approximately $0.5 million related to the Cerberian acquisition in November 2004.



Sales and marketing expenses presented above included stock-based
compensation expense of approximately $0.6 million, $1.2 million and $1.1 million for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



Sales and marketing headcount was 189 at April 30, 2006, 126 at April 30, 2005 and 93 at April 30, 2004. The acquisition of Permeo resulted
in the addition of 11 people in the sales and marketing organization in fiscal 2006. We expect sales and marketing expense to increase in absolute dollars because we intend to expand domestic and international markets, establish and expand new
distribution channels, and introduce new products.



General and

General and administrative expense consists primarily of salaries and
benefits, legal services, accounting and audit services, and other general corporate expenses.



General and administrative expense increased $6.9 million to $13.6 million in fiscal 2006 from $6.7 million in fiscal 2005. Stock-based compensation expense within general and administrative expense
increased to $1.8 million in fiscal 2006 from a benefit of $2.1 million in fiscal 2005, resulting in a year-over-year increase in stock-based compensation expense of approximately $3.9 million. The remaining increase in general and
administrative expense was primarily attributable to increased headcount and related costs, as well as professional fees related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.



General and administrative expense decreased $1.4 million to $6.7 million in fiscal 2005 from $8.1 million in fiscal
2004. Stock-based compensation expense within general and administrative expense was a benefit of $2.1 million in fiscal 2005 as compared to an expense of $2.9 million in fiscal 2004, resulting in a year-over-year decrease in stock-based
compensation expense of approximately $5.0 million. This fluctuation was primarily related to the remeasurement of certain stock option grants accounted for as variable awards. This decrease was partially offset by increases in headcount,
professional fees related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as legal fees associated with various legal matters more fully described in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements.



General and administrative expenses presented above included stock-based
compensation expense/(benefit) of approximately $1.8 million, $(2.1) million and $2.9 million for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

General and administrative headcount was 65 at April 30, 2006, 40 at April 30, 2005 and 32 at
April 30, 2004. We expect that general and administrative expense will increase in absolute dollars as we increase headcount and expand our infrastructure to manage any increase in business volume.



Restructuring (reversal) Charges



As of April 30, 2006, all actions under our February 2002, August
2001, and February 2001 restructuring plans had been completed, except for payment of future rent obligations of $0.8 million, which are to be paid in cash through fiscal 2008.

In fiscal 2006, we
reduced our restructuring accrual by $48,000 due to decreases in the estimated costs required to restore two leased facilities to the condition stipulated in the related lease agreements.



In fiscal 2005, we reduced our restructuring accrual by $72,000 related to a revised estimate of real estate taxes on one of
the leased facilities and by $24,000 related to contract termination costs, which were lower than originally estimated.



In fiscal 2004, we increased our restructuring accruals for abandoned lease space by $1.5 million to reflect additional revisions to market information
provided by a commercial real estate broker.

Acquired In-Process Technology



We recorded a non-cash charge of $3.3 million in fiscal 2006 for the value of in-process technology acquired in the Permeo
acquisition, which relates to research and development projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no future use in our development activities.



We recorded a non-cash charge of approximately $0.2 million in fiscal 2004 for the value of in-process technology acquired
in the Ositis acquisition, which relates to research and development projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no future use in our development activities.



To establish the value of the in-process technology acquired from Permeo and Ositis we used an income approach, which values
an asset based on the earnings capacity of such asset considering the future cash flows that could potentially be generated by the asset over its estimated remaining life. These cash flows were discounted to their present value using a discount rate
of 29.0% and 25.0%, respectively, which is equal to a rate that would theoretically provide sufficient return to a potential investor at an appropriate level of risk. The present value of the cash flows over the life of the asset is summed to equal
the estimated value of the asset.



Interest Income and Other Income

The following summarizes interest income and
other income (expense) and changes in interest income and other income (expense) by fiscal year (in thousands):

Interest income
increased for the year ended April 30, 2006 and 2005 as a result of higher average cash and investment balances throughout the year as well as higher interest rates compared to the prior year.



Other income and expense consists primarily of realized gains and losses on
investments, foreign currency exchange gains or losses, banking fees, and non-recurring gains or losses realized outside our normal course of business. Other expense for fiscal 2006 and 2005 primarily consists of foreign currency exchange losses.
The increase in other income for fiscal 2004 primarily reflected the recording of penalties and interest associated with our investigation into historical stock option granting practices, and our recovery on a previously reserved employee note that
was collected during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004.

##### Table of Contents

We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than
not to be realized in future periods. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including operating results, our history of losses and forecasts of future taxable income.
We believe that, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that we will not be able to realize our deferred tax assets. Therefore, a full valuation allowance has been recorded at April 30, 2006 and 2005.



As of April 30, 2006, we had net operating loss carryforwards for federal
income tax purposes of approximately $276.9 million, which will expire in fiscal years ending in 2011 through 2026 if not utilized. We also had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $163.0 million, which
will expire in fiscal years ending in 2008 through 2016 if not utilized. We also had federal and California research and other tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.7 million and $4.0 million respectively. The federal credit will expire in
fiscal years 2012 through 2026 if not utilized. The California credits are not subject to expiration.



The utilization of certain of our historical and acquired net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, in the amounts of $ 113.0 million and $ 0.7
million, are subject to annual limitations ranging from approximately $1.0 million to $30.8 million. In addition, utilization of our net operating loss and credit carryforwards may be subject to substantial annual limitations in the future due to
the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an annual limitation could result in the expiration of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before utilization. See Note
8Income Taxes for additional information.

Financial condition and liquidity



We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and cash generated from operations, if any, will be
sufficient to meet our operating requirements for at least the next twelve months, including working capital requirements and capital expenditures. We may choose at any time to raise additional capital to strengthen our financial condition,
facilitate expansion and pursue strategic investments or to take advantage of business opportunities as they arise.

Since our inception, we have financed our operations and capital expenditures
through cash provided by operating activities, private sales of preferred and common stock, bank loans, equipment leases, and an initial public offering of our common stock. We believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment
balances as of April 30, 2006 and cash generated from operations, if any, will provide sufficient capital to meet our requirements for at least the next twelve months. However, should prevailing economic conditions and/or financial, business
and other factors beyond our control adversely affect our estimates of our future cash requirements, or if cash is used for unanticipated purposes, we may need additional capital sooner than expected. Although we cannot guarantee that planned
results will be obtained in fiscal 2007 or that sufficient debt or equity capital will be available to us under acceptable terms, if at all, we believe that our planned cash flow assumptions can be realized. If we raise additional funds through the
issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders will be reduced.



Net cash provided by operating activities was $22.4 million for the year ended April 30, 2006 compared with $11.0 million net cash provided by
operating activities for the year ended April 30, 2005. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was attributable to higher net income, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, resulting from the increased demand for
our products and services. Working capital sources of cash in fiscal 2006 included increases in deferred revenue of $16.7 million, accrued payroll and related benefits of $2.1 million, deferred rent of $2.0 million and accounts payable of $1.8
million. Deferred revenue increased primarily due to increased shipments of Blue Coat WebFilter and service billings, offset by a decrease in other products for which revenue is recognized over time. Accrued payroll and related benefits increased
primarily due to payroll tax obligations associated with the restatement of our consolidated financial statements (see Payroll and Withholding Taxes, Penalties and Interest Related to the Restatement in Critical Accounting Policies
within Item 7 for additional information). Accounts payable increased during the year ended April 30, 2006 as a result of a higher volume of business. Working capital uses of cash included increases in accounts receivable balance of $10.6
million, prepaids and other assets of $0.3 million, as well as a decrease in

accrued restructuring of $2.7 million. Accounts receivable increased as a result of higher net revenue in 2006, coupled with an increase in our days of sales
outstanding from 32.6 days at April 30, 2005 to 51.0 days at April 30, 2006 as a result of higher net revenue, partially offset by increased collection efforts. Accrued restructuring decreased over the prior year primarily as a result of
cash payments made against the restructuring accrual recorded in prior years.



Net cash used in investing activities was $32.1 million for the year ended April 30, 2006 compared with $5.1 million used in investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2005. Net cash used in investing
activities for the year ended April 30, 2006 included $15.8 million for the acquisition of Permeo, $10.2 million for the purchase of investment securities, net, and $6.7 million for the purchase of property and equipment. The increased use of
cash for property and equipment, as compared to the prior year, was primarily due to the leasehold improvements and equipment purchased for our newly leased headquarters in Sunnyvale, California. Our capital expenditures consisted primarily of
purchases of computer equipment, software, furniture and leasehold improvements. Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended April 30, 2005 included $1.4 million related to the acquisition of Cerberian and $0.7 million related to
the remaining payments from the Ositis acquisition, as well as purchase of property and equipment of $2.5 million. In the future, we expect that any cash in excess of current requirements will continue to be invested in short-term investment grade,
interest-bearing securities.



Net cash provided by financing
activities was $9.5 million for the year ended April 30, 2006 compared with $1.8 million net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended April 30, 2005. The net cash provided by financing activities for the years ended
April 30, 2006 and 2005 was from the issuance of common stock through employee stock compensation plans. The net cash provided by our financing activities for fiscal 2004 was primarily attributable to a private equity financing as well as the
issuance of common stock through employee stock compensation plans.



Our long-term strategy is to maintain a minimum amount of cash and cash equivalents for operational purposes and to invest the remaining amount of our cash in interest bearing and highly liquid cash equivalents and marketable debt
securities. As of April 30, 2006, we had a total of $57.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment, as well as $1.3 million in restricted investments, providing us with a total cash and investments position of $58.5 million.

##### Table of Contents

We lease certain office facilities under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates
through 2011. The facility leases generally require us to pay operating costs, including property taxes, insurance and maintenance, and contain scheduled rent increases and certain other rent escalation clauses. Rent expense is reflected in our
consolidated financial statements on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.



In September 2005, we commenced a five-year operating lease of a building that serves as our headquarters in Sunnyvale, California. As part of this
agreement, we are required to maintain a $0.4 million irrevocable standby letter of credit with a major financial institution as a form of security. This letter of credit provides for automatic annual extensions, without amendment, through the end
of the lease term in August 2010.



In July 2001, we commenced a
five-year operating lease that served as our research and development facility in Sunnyvale, California. As part of this agreement, we were required to maintain a $2.0 million irrevocable standby letter of credit with a major financial institution
as a form of security. The letter of credit provided for automatic annual extensions, without amendment, through the end of the lease term in June 2006. In accordance with the lease agreement, the standby letter of credit was reduced by $0.5 million
in each of October 2004 and December 2005, respectively, resulting in the remaining balance of $1.0 million as of April 30, 2006.



As of April 30, 2006 and 2005, we have $1.0 million and $0, respectively, recorded as short-term restricted investments; we have $0.4 million and
$1.9 million, respectively, recorded as long-term restricted investments in connection with the above two items as of April 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



As of April 30, 2006, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as
structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Further, we have not guaranteed any obligations
of unconsolidated entities, nor do we have any commitment or intent to provide additional funding to any such entities. As such, we are not materially exposed to any market, credit, liquidity or financing risk that could arise if we had engaged in
such relationships.



We do not maintain any off-balance sheet
transactions, arrangements, or obligations that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources.



Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk



Interest Rate Risk



We
are subject to certain market risks, including changes in exchange rates and interest rates. We do not undertake any specific actions to cover our exposures to exchange and interest rate risks, and we are not a party to any risk management
transactions. We also do not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.



Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio. As of April 30, 2006, we had $57.2 million
invested primarily in money market funds, commercial paper, corporate securities and auction rate preferred securities that are included in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in our consolidated balance sheets. We maintain a strict
investment policy, which is intended to ensure the safety and preservation of our invested funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. The fair value of our investment portfolio would not be significantly impacted by either a
100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates due mainly to the short-term nature of the majority of our investment portfolio.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk



We develop products in the United States (U.S.) and sell them throughout the world. As a result, our financial
results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Because all of our sales are currently billed and collected in U.S. dollars, a strengthening of the dollar could
make our products less price-competitive in foreign markets. If the events described above were to occur, our net revenue and earnings could be seriously impacted, since a significant portion of our net revenue and earnings are derived from
international operations. For the fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, approximately 50.0%, 49.1% and 44.1%, respectively, of our total net revenue were derived from customers outside of North America. In contrast, substantially all of the expenses of
operating our foreign subsidiaries are incurred in foreign currencies. As a result, our U.S. dollar earnings and net cash flows from international operations may be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. However, we do not consider
the market risk associated with our international operations to be material. We do not currently use derivative financial instruments for hedging or speculative purposes.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



Basis of Presentation



The consolidated financial statements include Blue Coat Systems, Inc.s accounts and those of its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All
inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.



The consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004 include the accounts and operating results of Permeo Technologies, Inc., Cerberian, Inc. and Ositis Software, Inc., beginning March 3,
2006, November 16, 2004 and November 14, 2003, respectively (see Note 4).



Use of Estimates



The
preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted 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 dates of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from
these estimates, and such differences could be material to the Companys consolidated financial condition and results of operations. Our critical accounting estimates include (i) Revenue Recognition and Related Receivable Allowances,
(ii) Inventories, (iii) Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranty Obligations, (iv) Valuation of Goodwill, (v) Valuation of Long-Lived and Identifiable Intangible Assets, (vi) Restructuring Liabilities, (vii) Income
Taxes, (viii) Contingencies, (ix) Stock-Based Compensation, (x) Impact of Judgments and Interpretation on Restatement Amounts and (xi) Payroll and Withholding Taxes, Penalties and Interest Related to the Restatement.



Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments



We consider all highly liquid investments with insignificant interest rate
risk and original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.



Short-term investments consist primarily of debt securities with original maturities between three months and one year. We determine the appropriate classification of our investments at the time of purchase and
evaluate such designation as of each balance sheet date based on our intent and ability to use such funds for current operations. To date, all of our investments have been classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with
unrealized gains and losses, if any, included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders equity. The fair value of these securities is based on quoted market prices. Realized gains and losses and declines in value of
securities judged to be other than temporary are included in other income (expenses) and have been $0 to date. Interest and dividends on all securities are included in interest income.



Inventories



Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods. Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or market using the first-in,
first-out method, after appropriate consideration has been given to



88

##### Table of Contents

obsolescence and inventory in excess of anticipated future demand. In assessing the ultimate recoverability of inventories, we are required to make estimates
regarding future customer demand and market conditions.



Property and
Equipment



Property and equipment are stated at cost,
subject to adjustments for impairment, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:



|                              |  |                                               
|----------------------------- |  | ----------------------------------------------
|Software                      |  | 3 years                                       
|Furniture and fixtures        |  | 3 years                                       
|Computer and office equipment |  | 3-5 years                                     
|Leasehold improvements        |  | Shorter of useful life or remaining lease term



Valuation of Goodwill



We perform annual goodwill impairment tests in accordance
with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, (SFAS No. 142) during our fourth fiscal quarter,
or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. The first step of the test identifies if potential impairment may have occurred, while the second step of the test measures the
amount of the impairment, if any. Impairment is recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is highly subjective and requires significant judgment. For
purposes of the annual impairment test, we consider our market capitalization on the date of the impairment test since we have just one reporting unit. Subsequent to the announcement of the results for the third quarter of fiscal 2006, which were
below our expectations as well as below those of public market analysts and investors, our stock price fell dramatically. In light of the significant reduction in market capitalization, we assessed the potential impairment of our goodwill by
comparing our market capitalization on the date of the impairment test to our goodwill balance and determined that no goodwill impairment existed at January 31, 2006. In addition, we performed our recurring annual review of goodwill in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 and again concluded that no impairment existed at the end of our fiscal year.



Valuation of Long-Lived and Identifiable Intangible Assets



We periodically evaluate potential impairments of our long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets, in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. We evaluate long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible
assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Events or changes in circumstances that could result in an impairment review include, but are not limited to,
significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business and significant negative industry or economic trends.
Impairment is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value as calculated on a discounted cash flow basis.



Restructuring Liabilities



Restructuring activities were initiated prior to December 31, 2002 and were recorded in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF)
Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).We have accrued through charges to Restructuring
various restructuring liabilities related to employee severance costs, facilities closure and lease abandonment costs, and contract termination costs in our consolidated financial statements. The restructuring liabilities for facilities closure and
lease abandonment costs include various assumptions, such as the time period over which abandoned facilities will be vacant, expected sublease terms,



89

##### Table of Contents

and expected sublease rates. Such assumptions are routinely assessed and any changes in these assumptions may result in a substantial increase or decrease to
restructuring expense should different conditions prevail than were anticipated in original estimates.



Revenue Recognition and Related Receivable Allowances



Our products include software that is essential to the functionality of the appliances. Additionally, we provide unspecified software upgrades and enhancements related to the appliances through our maintenance
contracts for most of our products. Accordingly, we account for revenue in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and all related interpretations.



We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
delivery or performance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Evidence of an arrangement generally consists of customer purchase orders and, in certain instances, sales contracts or
agreements. Shipping terms and related documents, or written evidence of customer acceptance, when applicable, are used to verify delivery or performance.



Sales are made through distributors under agreements allowing for certain stock rotation rights. Net revenue, and the related cost of net revenue,
resulting from shipments to distributors are deferred until the distributors report that our products have been sold to a customer. Product revenue in China is deferred until the customer registers the proxy appliance.



For sales made direct to end-users and value-added resellers, we recognize
product revenue upon transfer of title and risk of loss, which is generally upon shipment. We do not accept orders from these value-added resellers when we are aware that the value-added reseller does not have an order from a customer. For the
end-users and value-added resellers, we dont have significant obligations for future performance such as rights of return or pricing credits.



We assess that the sales price is fixed or determinable based on payment terms and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment.



In an arrangement that includes multiple elements, such as appliances,
maintenance, content filtering subscriptions and/or third-party software, we allocate revenue to each element using the residual method based on vendor specific objective evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. Under the residual method,
the amount of revenue allocated to delivered elements equals the total arrangement consideration less the aggregate fair value of any undelivered elements. Vendor specific objective evidence of fair value is based on the price charged when the
element is sold separately.



We accrue for warranty costs, and
other allowances based on historical experience.



Maintenance
and subscription revenue is initially deferred and recognized ratably over the life of the contract, with the related expenses recognized as incurred. Maintenance and subscription contracts usually have a term of one year, but can extend to five
years. Unearned maintenance and subscription contracts are included in deferred revenue.



When we bill customers for shipping, we record shipping cost in both net revenue and cost of net revenue. If we do not charge customers for shipping, the cost incurred for shipping are reflected in cost of net
revenue.



Probability of collection is assessed on a
customer-by-customer basis. Our customers are subjected to a credit review process that evaluates the customers financial condition and ability to pay for our products and services. If it is determined from the outset of an arrangement that
collection is not probable based upon the review process, revenue is not recognized until cash receipt.

##### Table of Contents

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers financial condition and maintain an
allowance for doubtful accounts. We analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer solvency, current economic and geographic trends, and changes in customer payment terms and practices when evaluating the
adequacy of such allowance, and any required changes in the allowance are recorded to general and administrative expense.



Research and Development



Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.



Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranty Obligations



Our customer agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying such customers against liabilities if our products infringe a third
partys intellectual property rights. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnification provisions and have not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.



Our Bylaws provide that we shall indemnify our
directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Delaware law. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and
directors containing provisions that may require us, among other things, to indemnify such officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers and to advance their expenses
incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We expect to have indemnification obligations to certain current and former officers and directors in connection with matters relating to the stock option
investigation, as well as with certain of our outstanding litigation matters.



We accrue for warranty expenses in our cost of revenue at the time revenue is recognized and maintain an accrual for estimated future warranty obligations based upon the relationship between historical and anticipated
warranty costs and revenue volumes. If actual warranty expenses are greater than those projected, additional charges against earnings would be required. If actual warranty expenses are less than projected, obligations would be reduced, providing a
positive impact on our reported results. We generally provide a one-year warranty on hardware products and a 90-day warranty on software products.



Advertising Costs



Advertising costs are charged to sales and marketing expense as incurred. Advertising costs were $0.3 million, $0.2 million and $0.1 million, for the
years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



Income Taxes



We use the liability method to account for income taxes
as required by SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, (SFAS No. 109). As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we
operate. This process involves determining our income tax expense together with calculating the deferred income tax expense related to temporary differences resulting from the differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes, such as
deferred revenue or deductibility of certain intangible assets. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the consolidated balance sheets. We must then assess the likelihood that the
deferred tax assets will be recovered through carry back to prior years income or through the generation of future taxable income after consideration of tax planning strategies and then record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax
assets to an amount we believe more likely than not will be realized.

##### Table of Contents

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex
tax laws. Our estimate for the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issues is highly judgmental. The Company accounts for income tax contingencies in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.



Comprehensive Income



We report comprehensive income in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income, (SFAS No. 130). Included in other comprehensive income are adjustments to record unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. These adjustments are accumulated in Accumulated other
comprehensive income in the stockholders equity section of the balance sheets.



Stock-Based Compensation



We account for stock-based compensation for options granted to our employees and members of our Board of Directors using Accounting Principles Board (APB) Statement No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related interpretations, including Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, An Interpretation of APB Opinion
No. 25, and comply with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure Amendment of SFAS No. 123.



Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is measured on the date in which the number of shares and exercise price are known, or fixed. If the number of shares or exercise price of the award is not fixed, the stock
option is accounted for as a variable award until such time at which the stock option is exercised, cancelled or expires.



For fixed stock awards, compensation expense is calculated based on its intrinsic value, or the difference between the fair market value of our stock on
the date the award is fixed and the awards exercise price. No compensation expense is recognized if an awards intrinsic value is zero. Stock-based compensation expense associated with fixed stock option awards with a positive intrinsic
value is recognized over the vesting period using the graded method, which results in greater expense recorded in earlier years than the straight-line method.



For variable awards, the intrinsic value of our stock options is remeasured each period based on the difference between the fair market value of our
stock as of the end of the reporting period and the awards exercise price. As a result, the amount of compensation expense or benefit to be recognized each period fluctuates based on changes in the fair market value of our common stock from
the end of the previous reporting period to the end of the current reporting period. Compensation expense in any given period is calculated as the difference between total cumulative earned compensation calculated at the end of the period, less
total cumulative earned compensation calculated at the beginning of the period for each such award. Compensation expense for these awards is recognized over the vesting period using an accelerated method of recognition in accordance with FIN
No. 28, Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plan, An Interpretation of APB Opinions No. 15 and 25. Variable accounting is applied until the measurement date of the stock option is fixed,
or the time at which the stock option is exercised, forfeited or expires.



We account for modifications to stock options under FIN No. 44, which was effective July 1, 2000. Modifications include, but are not limited to, acceleration of vesting, extension of the exercise period
following termination of employment and/or continued vesting while not providing substantive services. Compensation expense is recorded in the period of modification for the intrinsic value of the vested portion of the award, including vesting that
occurs while not providing substantive services, on the date of modification.



We value stock options assumed in acquisitions based on their fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of assumed options, less their intrinsic value, is included as a component of the
purchase price. The intrinsic value of unvested stock options is recorded as deferred stock-based compensation and is amortized to expense over the remaining vesting period of the stock options using the graded method.

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of
stock-based awards to employees is amortized to pro forma expense over the vesting period for stock options and over the applicable purchase periods for stock purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The weighted average
grant date fair value of stock options granted to employees was $17.71, $16.42 and $10.29 per share during the years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The weighted average fair value of employee stock purchase rights granted
under the ESPP was $11.44, $9.06 and $8.93 per share during the years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Such weighted average grant date fair values were estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the
assumptions included below.



Pro forma information regarding
the results of operations and net loss per share is determined as if we had accounted for employee stock options using the fair value method. Under this method, the fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model.



For the years ended
April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees was estimated using the following weighted average assumptions:

Per Share Amounts



Basic net income per common share and diluted net income per common share are presented in conformity with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share
(SFAS No. 128), for all periods presented. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic per share amounts are computed by using
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period less the weighted average number of common shares subject to repurchase. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of
common stock outstanding, including dilutive common shares subject to repurchase and potential shares assuming the (i) exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method and (ii) issuance of committed but
un-issued stock awards.



Under the treasury stock method,
outstanding options are assumed to be exercised if their exercise price is below the average fair market value of our common stock for a given period, and the proceeds from the exercise of such options are assumed to be used by us to repurchase
shares of our common stock on the open market. Additionally, unearned stock-based compensation, significant amounts of which was recorded as part of our restatement and has been presented in stockholders equity, is considered proceeds for
purposes of applying the treasury stock method to determine incremental common shares to be included in diluted shares in periods in which we have reported net income. For the years ended April 30, 2006 and 2005, options to purchase 494,427 and
856,784 shares of common stock, respectively, were considered anti-dilutive and, therefore, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the year ended April 30, 2004, stock options outstanding of 532,345 were
considered anti-dilutive as we had a net loss and, therefore, are not included in diluted earnings per share computation.



The following table presents the calculation of weighted average common shares used in the computations of basic and diluted per share amounts presented
in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations (in thousands, except for per share data):

##### Table of Contents

Foreign Currency Adjustments



The functional currency of our domestic and foreign operations is the United States dollar. Accordingly, the effects of
foreign currency transactions, and of remeasuring the financial condition and results of operations from local currencies into the functional currency, are included in other income (expense) in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations. These amounts were not material during any of the three years in the period ended April 30, 2006.



Fair Value of Financial Instruments



The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, which include cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted investments, approximate
their respective fair values based on quoted market prices.



Concentration
and Other Risks



Financial instruments that potentially
subject us to credit risk consist of demand deposit accounts, money market accounts, commercial paper, corporate debt securities and trade receivables. We maintain demand deposit and money market accounts with financial institutions of high credit
standing. We invest only in high-quality, investment grade securities and limit investment exposure in any one issue. Investments are classified as cash equivalents and short-term investments in our consolidated balance sheets for the years ended
April 30, 2006 and 2005. We believe the financial risks associated with these financial instruments are minimal. We have not experienced material losses from our investments in these securities.



Generally, we do not require collateral for sales to customers. However, we
perform on-going credit valuations of our customers financial condition and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts. One of our customers accounted for 10.2%, 15.9% and 24.1% of net revenue during the years ended April 30, 2006, 2005
and 2004, respectively. As of April 30, 2005, the same customer accounted for 11.3% of our gross accounts receivable and no other customer accounted for more than 10.0% of our gross accounts receivable. As of April 30, 2006, no customer
accounted for more than 10.0% of gross accounts receivable.



We
currently purchase several key parts and components used in the manufacture of our products from a limited number of suppliers. Generally we have been able to obtain an adequate supply of such parts and components. However, an extended interruption
in the supply of parts and components currently obtained from our suppliers could adversely affect our business and consolidated financial statements.



Contingencies



From time to time we are involved in various claims and legal proceedings. If management believes that a loss arising from these matters is probable and
can reasonably be estimated, we record the amount of the loss, or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range, and no point within the range is more probable than any other. As additional information becomes available,
any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. An unfavorable ruling could result in a material adverse
impact on the results of operations for the period in which the ruling occurs, or future periods.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In September, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.
SFAS No. 157 provides a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value, and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements and
eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 157 for our

fiscal year beginning May 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our consolidated
results of operations and financial condition, but do not expect it to have a material impact.



In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statements. SAB No. 108 provides guidance on how prior year misstatements should be taken into consideration when quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements for purposes of determining whether the current
years financial statements are materially misstated. SAB No. 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after November 15, 2006. We are required to adopt SAB No. 108 for our fiscal year beginning on May 1,
2007.



In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation
No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). Under FIN 48, companies are required to apply the more likely than not threshold to
the recognition and derecognition of tax positions. FIN 48 also provides guidance on the measurement of tax positions, balance sheet classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition rules. The new
guidance will be effective for us on May 1, 2007, beginning of our fiscal year 2008. We are currently evaluating the provisions in FIN 48, however, at the present time, we do not anticipate that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material
impact on our consolidated financial statements.



In November
2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FSP 115-1 which addresses the determination as to when an investment is considered impaired, whether that impairment is other-than-temporary, and the measurement of an impairment loss. This FSP also
includes accounting considerations subsequent to the recognition of other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. The guidance in this FSP
amends SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities and APB Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. The guidance in FSP 115-1
shall be applied to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. We will adopt FSP 115-1 for our fiscal year beginning May 1, 2006, and we do not anticipate that the adoption of FSP 115-1 will have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements.



In June 2005, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. SFAS No. 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 No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods financial
statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS No. 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a
change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Earlier application is
permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. SFAS No. 154 does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, including those that are in a
transition phase as of the effective date of SFAS No. 154. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 154 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.



In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Cost, which clarifies the accounting for abnormal
amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material. SFAS No. 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS
No. 151 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Shared-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123(R)), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB

##### Table of Contents

SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock
options, to be measured using a fair value method and such expense to be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) requires additional accounting related to the income tax effects and
additional disclosure regarding the cash flow effects resulting from share-based payment arrangements. We adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, for our fiscal year beginning May 1, 2006 using the modified prospective
transition method. Under that transition method, recognized compensation cost includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of May 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated
in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted on or after May 1, 2006 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R).
Due to our election of the modified prospective transition method, results for prior periods will not be restated. Further, we have elected to use the straight-line method of amortization for stock-based compensation related to stock options granted
after May 1, 2006. The adoption of the SFAS 123(R) fair value method will have a significant adverse impact on our reported results of operations, currently estimated at approximately $2.5 million to $3.5 million per quarter, although it will
have no impact on our overall financial condition.



In
March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107. SAB No. 107 provides guidance related to share-based payment transactions with non-employees, the transition from nonpublic to public entity status,
valuation methods (including assumptions such as expected volatility and expected term), the accounting for certain redeemable financial instruments issued under share-based payment arrangements, the classification of compensation expense, non-GAAP
financial measures, first-time adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) in an interim period, capitalization of compensation cost related to share-based payment arrangements, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon
adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the modification of employee share options prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) and disclosures in Managements Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) subsequent to adoption of SFAS
No. 123(R). We will apply the guidance in SAB No. 107 commensurate with our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on May 1, 2006.



Note 3. Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements



In this Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, we are restating our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of
April 30, 2005 and for the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004. The restatement includes adjustments arising from an internal review of our historical financial statements, as well as the determinations of an independent committee of our
Board of Directors (the Special Committee), assisted by independent legal counsel and accounting experts, formed in July 2006 to conduct an internal investigation into our historical stock option granting practices that concluded that
our historical measurement dates could not be relied upon. We also recorded adjustments affecting our previously-reported financial statements for fiscal years 2000 through 2003, the effects of which are summarized in cumulative adjustments to our
additional paid in capital, deferred stock-based compensation and accumulated deficit accounts as of April 30, 2003.



Our management reviewed the information made available to it by the Special Committee and performed its own detailed review of historical stock option
grants as part of the effort to establish appropriate measurement dates. In connection with these procedures, our management also conducted certain recertification procedures as part of the process of determining if there was evidence that would
prevent our Board of Directors and current management from relying upon the work performed by the accounting, finance and legal personnel as it relates to fiscal years 2004 and 2005, and the extent to which our prior accounting and controls can be
relied upon for purposes of the preparation and certification of the restated consolidated financial statements.



As a result of the Special Committees investigation and findings, as well as our internal review and recertification procedures, we have recorded
additional stock-based compensation expense for numerous stock option grants made from November 1999 through May 2006 to correctly account for stock option grants for which the Special Committee or management determined that the actual
measurement date for accounting purposes was different from the stated grant date.

##### Table of Contents

In addition to the deferred stock-based compensation amounts, and related payroll and withholding taxes,
penalties, and interest resulting from the revision in measurement dates for historical stock option grants, our internal review also identified certain other errors in accounting determinations and judgments relating to stock-based compensation
that have also been corrected in our restated consolidated financial statements. These errors include: (a) incorrect amortization of cheap stock; (b) incorrect accounting for a pre-IPO loan issued to exercise stock options as a fixed award
rather than as a variable award in fiscal years 2000 and 2001; (c) incorrect accounting for modifications to equity awards; and (d) incorrect amortization of acquisition-related option grants. These errors in accounting for stock-based
compensation expense are described in more detail after the accompanying summary tables below.



Also included in this restatement are certain other non-stock-based compensation items which had not previously been recorded due to their immateriality, but which management was aware of outside of the course of the
investigation and the procedures described above. These other non-stock-based compensation items are immaterial both individually and in aggregate, and relate solely to the timing of certain operating expenses between periods such that the net
impact to all periods is zero.



The effects of these
adjustments are summarized as follows (in thousands):

The errors in accounting for stock-based compensation expense are described more fully below:



Correction in the Amortization of Cheap Stock



We analyzed and recalculated the compensation expense associated with our
stock options granted before our initial public offering (IPO), also known as cheap stock, due to an accounting error in calculating the amount and timing of adjustments to deferred stock-based compensation expense for unvested options
upon employee termination. The correction of these accounting errors resulted in the recognition of a benefit in fiscal years 2000 through 2002 and additional expense in fiscal years 2003 through 2005, for a net reduction of stock-based compensation
of $8.3 million.



Modifications to Equity Awards



We also identified stock options that had been modified due to the terms of
separation agreements and employment agreements. Based on a review of separation agreements and the related employment agreements, we determined that the terms of certain agreements modified certain provisions of the related options, specifically
the vesting provisions or the term by providing additional time to exercise. Pursuant to the guidelines set forth in APB 25 and FIN 44, modifications that renew or extend the life of fixed awards, or provide for an extension or renewal if a
specified future separation from employment occurs, result in a new measurement date. The modification of the related stock option grants resulted in additional stock-based compensation expense of $0.8 million.



Correction in the Amortization of Acquisition Related Option Grants



We originally adopted the graded method of amortizing stock-based
compensation expense. However, we incorrectly used a straight-line amortization method to amortize compensation expense related to an acquisition in fiscal 2006. For stock-based compensation expense related to an acquisition in fiscal 2001, we also
incorrectly accounted for the adjustment to stock-based compensation expense for terminated employees to reflect stock-based compensation expense for vested options as if it had been recorded on a straight-line basis. The correction in amortization
of acquisition-related stock-based compensation expense resulted in a net reduction in stock-based compensation expense of $7.1 million for the fiscal years 2001 through 2006.



Payroll and Withholding Taxes, Penalties and Interest



Internal Revenue Code Section 421 prohibits the granting of Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) with an
exercise price below fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. As described above, nearly all of our stock options granted since November 18, 1999 were subject to revised measurement dates. Therefore, many of the stock
options that were granted as ISOs should have been treated as Non-Qualified (NQ) stock options for purposes of payroll taxes. We did not withhold Federal Income Taxes, State Income Taxes, FICA or Medicare on the options that were
issued as ISOs that should have been treated as NQ stock options (due to their below-market grant pricing). However, it is our position that in certain circumstances we should have withheld such taxes. As described below, we have accrued
payroll and withholding taxes, penalties and interest for these NQ stock options and included these amounts in the restated financial statements.



However, since the statute of limitations has expired for years prior to calendar year 2003, we have reversed expense recorded in prior periods and
recognized a benefit in the periods in which the statute of limitations for the respective option exercise expires. In most instances, ISOs which were exercised as a same-day sale were properly treated as a disqualifying disposition and the
income was reported on the individuals Form W-2. In these situations, we accrued payroll taxes, penalties and interest but did not accrue Federal or State Income Taxes as the income from the disqualifying disposition of stock options was
included on the employees Form W-2 and applicable State and Federal Income Taxes were paid by the employee. For certain ISOs which subsequently converted to a NQ stock option, we accrued Federal and State Income Taxes, payroll
taxes, penalties and interest at the applicable rates, if the income was not reported on the individuals Form W-2.

The combination of taxes, penalties and interest resulted in a net compensation charge of $2.0 million
for fiscal years 2000 through 2006.



We believe that the unpaid
employee portion of taxes represents joint and several obligations of both us and our employees. However, the change of status of employee options from ISO to NQ was a result of flaws in our stock option granting practices as discussed above. We
believe that the employees would likely have a valid claim against us in the event we attempted to recover a portion of the additional taxes, penalties and interest from them. Accordingly, we believe it is appropriate to accrue both the employee and
the employer portions of all taxes. In addition, we believe such additional taxes, penalties and interest should be recorded in the respective years in which the underlying in-the-money options were exercised. Since we have fully reserved our
deferred tax assets, we did not record any net change to our deferred tax assets associated with this restatement.

Note 4. Acquisitions



Permeo Technologies, Inc.



On March 3, 2006, we completed the acquisition of Permeo, Inc. (Permeo). The purchase price of $45.3 million consisted of $14.9 million in cash consideration, 1.3 million shares of our common
stock valued at $28.7 million, $1.0 million in estimated direct transaction costs, $0.9 million of which had been paid as of April 30, 2006, and Permeo stock options assumed by us valued at $0.6 million. The purchase price has been allocated to
the tangible and intangible assets acquired, with the excess purchase price being allocated to goodwill. Identifiable intangible assets include developed technology and customer relationships, which are being amortized to Cost of
revenueProduct and Operating expenses, respectively.



Permeo was a leading provider of on-demand information security. It provided comprehensive remote access and information protection solution that safely extended corporate applications to mobile workers, business
partners and customers. Permeos operations were assumed as of the date of the acquisition and are included in our results of operations beginning on March 3, 2006 and, as a result, are not reflected in our results of operations for the
year ended April 30, 2004 and 2005.

Upon closing the
acquisition of Permeo, as part of cash consideration, we forgave the note from Permeo to us totaling $0.8 million. We also recorded $1.0 million in severance costs in Accrued payroll and related benefits during the year ended
April 30, 2006, as part of integration efforts to eliminate redundancies and increase organizational efficiencies within the newly combined company.



Our primary purpose for acquiring Permeo was to use the technology from Permeo to extend the proxy infrastructure for application and security services
all the way to the endpoint of the virtual enterprise. We believe that the intangible assets of Permeo strengthen our product offerings and allow us to market a more competitive solution to our customers.



To establish the value of the intangible assets, an income approach was used
with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist. We utilized a five-step process to value the intangible assets: (i) revenue associated with the intangible assets was projected; (ii) cost of goods sold was then estimated for
each period in which revenue was projected; (iii) the resulting net cash flow was tax effected and reduced further by charges for the use of fixed assets, working capital and other assets necessary to generate these cash flows; (iv) the
resulting net cash flows were discounted at a rate commensurate with their risk; and (v) we summed the discounted cash flows to estimate their fair market values. We then estimated the tax benefits associated with the intangible asset and this
benefit was included in the value of the intangible assets.



As
part of the valuation analysis, an understanding of the technology acquired and its future use after the acquisition was necessary. Accordingly, several factors were considered: (i) whether or not the acquired technology had achieved
technological feasibility; (ii) the time, costs and risks to complete the development of the technology; (iii) the roadmap for the technology post acquisition; (iv) the existence of any alternative use for the technology; (v) the
additional use of any core technology; and (vi) the results of any enhancements or embellishments to the technology.



Using the above guidelines at the time of the acquisition, we identified intangible assets that were valued separately from goodwill. The intangible
assets identified were developed technology and customer relationships.

In addition, we
recorded a non-cash charge of $3.3 million in fiscal 2006 for the value of in-process technology acquired in the Permeo acquisition, which relates to research and development projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no
future use in our development activities.



To establish the
value of the in-process technology acquired from Permeo we used an income approach, which values an asset based on the earnings capacity of such asset considering the future cash flows that could potentially be generated by the asset over its
estimated remaining life. These cash flows were discounted to their present value using a discount rate of 29.0%, which is equal to a rate that would theoretically provide sufficient return to a potential investor at an appropriate level of risk.
The present value of the cash flows over the life of the asset is summed to equal the estimated value of the asset.



Cerberian, Inc.



On November 16, 2004, we completed the acquisition of Cerberian, Inc. (Cerberian). The purchase price of $19.3 million consisted of
0.8 million shares of our common stock valued at $17.4 million, $0.4 million in direct transaction costs, Cerberian options assumed by us valued at $0.5 million and the elimination of promissory notes from Cerberian to us of $1.0 million. The
purchase price was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, with the excess purchase price being allocated to goodwill. Approximately $17.6 million of the total purchase price was allocated to goodwill upon the closing of Cerberian
acquisition on November 16, 2004. For the year ended April 30, 2005, we recorded an additional adjustment of $0.2 million related to a decrease in legal and accounting transaction fees, resulting in a corresponding decrease to goodwill.
For the year ended April 30, 2006, no adjustment was made. Cerberians operations were assumed as of the date of the acquisition and are included in our results of operations beginning on November 16, 2004.

Ositis Software, Inc.



On November 14, 2003, we completed the
acquisition of Ositis Software, Inc. (Ositis). The purchase price of $8.7 million consisted of 0.4 million shares of our common stock valued at $6.7 million, $1.1 million in cash, $0.9 million in direct transaction costs, and Ositis

Approximately $7.7 million of the total purchase price was allocated to goodwill upon closing of the Ositis acquisition on November 14, 2003. For the year ended April 30, 2005, the Company recorded an adjustment of $0.2 million related to
a decrease in the fair value of assumed liabilities, resulting in a corresponding decrease to goodwill. For the year ended April 30, 2006, no adjustment was made. Ositis operations have been included in our results of operations beginning
on November 14, 2003.

To date we have not
recorded any impairment charges on marketable securities related to other-than-temporary declines in market value. We recognize an impairment charge when the decline in the estimated fair value of a marketable security below the amortized cost is
determined to be other-than-temporary. We consider various factors in determining whether to recognize an impairment charge, including the duration of time and the severity to which the fair value has been less than our amortized cost, any adverse
changes in the investees financial condition and our intent and ability to hold the marketable security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.

In fiscal 2006, we
reduced the restructuring accrual by $48,000 due to decreases in the estimated costs required to restore two leased facilities to the condition stipulated in the related lease agreements.



In fiscal 2005, we reduced the restructuring accrual by $72,000 related to a revised estimate of real estate taxes on one of
the leased facilities and by $24,000 related to contract termination costs which were lower than originally estimated.



In fiscal 2004, we increased the restructuring accruals for abandoned lease space by $1.5 million to reflect additional revisions to market information
provided by a commercial real estate broker.



Note 7. Stockholders
Equity



Preferred Stock



As of April 30, 2006, our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes
10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The preferred stock is undesignated and the Board of Directors has the authority to issue new series of preferred stock and determine the rights, preferences and privileges of such preferred stock.



Common Stock



We have either assumed or entered into Stock Purchase Agreements in connection with the sale of common stock to employees,
consultants and directors. We have the right to repurchase, at the original issue price, a declining percentage of certain of the shares of common stock issued based on the respective service periods. As of April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, 41, 70
and 2,387 shares, respectively, of common stock issued under these agreements were subject to repurchase.



Warrants



In connection
with the acquisition of Ositis, we assumed warrants outstanding to purchase Ositis common stock using an exchange ratio contained in the Ositis merger agreement. Based on this exchange ratio, the total number of our shares that may be purchased by
warrant holders of Ositis common stock is 2,804. Using the

Black Scholes valuation model, we valued these shares at $43,000, which was included as part of the total purchase consideration for Ositis. As of
April 30, 2005, 2,727 of these warrants were issued and outstanding. As of April 30, 2006, 626 of these warrants were outstanding.



The following table illustrates total outstanding warrants as of April 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively:

1996 Stock Incentive Plan



In 1996, we established the 1996 Stock Option Plan (the
1996 Plan) under which stock options were granted to employees, directors and consultants. Options granted under the plan expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. After November 18, 1999 no options could be granted
under the 1996 plan. As of April 30, 2006, 191,479 shares of common stock remain available for issuance under the plan.



Options that expire and shares issued under the 1996 Plan that are repurchased become available for issuance under the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan, which is
discussed further below.



1999 Stock Incentive Plan



In September 1999, our Board of Directors adopted the 1999 Stock Incentive
Plan (the Incentive Plan), which became effective upon the effective date of our initial public offering. The number of shares reserved under the Incentive Plan automatically increased each year since inception and will increase on an
annual basis by the lesser of 5% of the total amount of common stock outstanding or 400,000 shares. Furthermore, any options granted under the 1996 Plan that are cancelled or exercised and subsequently repurchased by us become available for future
issuance under the Incentive Plan. Options granted under the plan expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. As of April 30, 2006, 3,284,611 shares of common stock remain available for issuance under the plan. The exercise price for
incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options granted under the Incentive Plan may not be less than 100.0% and 85.0%, respectively, of the fair market value of common stock on the option grant date and the stock options are generally
subject to a four-year vesting term. However, as discussed in Note 3, Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements, certain of our historical grants were issued below the fair market value of common stock on the option grant date and
stock-based compensation expense has been recorded accordingly.



1999
Director Option Plan



In September 1999, our Board of
Directors adopted the 1999 Director Option Plan (the Directors Plan). Under the Directors Plan, each non-employee director joining the Board of Directors following the effective date of our initial public offering automatically receives
options to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock. In addition, each non-employee director automatically receives options to purchase 1,000 shares of common stock at each annual meeting of the Board of Directors held in the year 2000 and thereafter.
Options granted under the plan expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the Directors Plan will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the option grant date. The number of
shares reserved under the Directors Plan automatically increases by 20,000 shares annually beginning January 1, 2000.

##### Table of Contents

As of April 30, 2006, 170,750 shares of common stock remain available for issuance under the plan. Our Board of Directors, at its discretion, may reduce
the automatic annual increase in reserved shares.



2000 Supplemental Stock
Option Plan



In February 2000, our Board of Directors
adopted the 2000 Supplemental Stock Option Plan (the 2000 Plan), under which 600,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance. Non-executive employees and consultants are eligible to participate in the 2000 Plan. The 2000 Plan
provides for the grant of non-statutory stock options to purchase shares of our common stock and/or grants of restricted shares of common stock. Options granted under the plan expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. The exercise price
for stock options issued under the 2000 Plan may not be less than 25.0% of the fair market value of common stock on the option grant date. As of April 30, 2006, 334,170 shares of common stock remain available for issuance under the plan.



Stock option activity under all stock option plans is as

As of April 30,
2006, 697,688 shares of common stock were available for grant and 4,028,087 shares of common stock (including 47,077 shares of common stock from option plans assumed through acquisitions) were authorized for future issuance under the aforementioned
option plans.



Employee Stock Purchase Plan



In September 1999, our Board of Directors adopted the Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (ESPP), which became effective upon our initial public offering. Under the ESPP, eligible employees may purchase common stock through payroll deductions, not to exceed 15% of an employees compensation, at a price
equal to 85% of the closing fair market value of our common stock on the lower of the day prior to the beginning of the offering or the last day of the applicable six-month purchase period. Beginning January 31, 2000, the number of shares
reserved under the ESPP is automatically increased by 100,000 shares annually. Effective March 1, 2006, the ESPP was modified to reduce the maximum offering period to six months from a prior maximum of two years. In addition, to provide
equitable participation for all employees regardless of compensation, the contribution limit was changed from a percentage of compensation to a fixed dollar limitation of $10,000 per six-month offering period.



As of April 30, 2006, 595,919 shares of common stock remain available
for future issuance under the ESPP. Our Board of Directors, at its discretion, may reduce the automatic annual increase in reserved shares.

Note 8. Income Taxes



The provision for income taxes of $0.3 million, $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively, is
comprised entirely of foreign corporate income taxes currently due.

Deferred income taxes
reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our deferred tax assets and
liabilities are as follows (in thousands):

We record a valuation
allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized in future periods. In evaluating our ability to recover the deferred tax assets we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including
operating results, our history of losses and forecasts of future taxable income. We believe that, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that we will not be able to realize our deferred tax assets. Therefore, a full
valuation allowance has been recorded at April 30, 2006 and 2005. The valuation allowance increased by $9.7 million, $4.1 million and $4.0 million during fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



As of April 30, 2006, we have net operating loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes of approximately $276.9 million which will expire in fiscal years ending in 2011 through 2026 if not utilized. We

also had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $163.0 million, which will expire in fiscal years ending in 2008
through 2016 if not utilized. We also have federal and California research and other tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.7 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The federal credit will expire in fiscal years 2012 through 2026 if not
utilized. The California credits are not subject to expiration.



Utilization of our net operating loss and credit carryforwards may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an annual
limitation could result in the expiration of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before utilization. The events that may cause ownership changes include, but are not limited to, a cumulative stock ownership change of greater than 50%
over a three year period.



Historically, several ownership
changes as defined in the Internal Revenue Code have occurred. As a result, utilization of approximately $113.0 million of net operating losses and $0.7 million of credits are subject to annual limitation ranging from approximately $1.0 million to
$30.8 million. In addition, the utilization of approximately $124.7 million of acquired net operating losses and $0.6 million of credits are subject to limitation on an annual basis. We have determined that we will be able to utilize the net
operating losses and credits subject to these limitations within the carryforward periods.



Our deferred tax assets, which have been offset by the valuation allowance, include deferred tax benefits associated with employee stock options and acquired net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax benefits
associated with employee stock options of approximately $3.5 million will be credited to additional paid-in-capital when realized. Deferred tax benefits associated with acquired net operating loss and credit carryforwards of approximately $29.6
million when realized, will first reduce goodwill and then noncurrent intangible assets associated with the acquisition. Any remainder tax benefit would then be a credit to the income statement.



Federal and state income taxes have not been provided on accumulated but
undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries aggregating approximately $1.8 million at April 30, 2006, as such earnings have been reinvested in the business. If such earnings were not permanently reinvested, a deferred tax liability
of $0.1 million would have been required.



Note 9. Defined Contribution
Benefit Plan



We have a defined contribution benefit plan
under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which covers substantially all United States employees. Eligible employees may contribute pre-tax amounts to the plan via payroll withholdings, subject to certain limitations. Effective
January 1, 2006, we began matching participant contributions on a dollar for dollar basis up to the lower of 3% of a participants eligible compensation or $1,500 per calendar year. Matching contributions are invested in accordance with a
participants existing investment elections and become fully vested after four years of service. The matching contributions for the year ended April 30, 2006 were approximately $0.2 million.



Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies



Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranty Obligations



Our customer agreements generally include certain provisions for
indemnifying such customers against liabilities if our products infringe a third partys intellectual property rights. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnification provisions and have not accrued any
liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.



Our Bylaws provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Delaware law.
We have also entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors containing provisions that may require us, among other things, to indemnify such officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of
their status or service as directors or officers and to advance their expenses incurred as a



117

##### Table of Contents

result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We expect to have indemnification obligations to certain current and former
officers and directors in connection with matters relating to the stock option investigation, as well as with certain of our outstanding litigation matters.



We accrue for warranty expenses in our cost of revenue at the time revenue is recognized and maintain an accrual for estimated future warranty obligations
based upon the relationship between historical and anticipated warranty costs and revenue volumes. If actual warranty expenses are greater than those projected, additional charges against earnings would be required. If actual warranty expenses are
less than projected, prior obligations would be reduced, providing a positive impact on our reported results. We generally provide a one-year warranty on hardware products and a 90-day warranty on software products.



Lease Commitments



We lease certain equipment and office facilities under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through
2011. The facility leases generally require us to pay operating costs, including property taxes, insurance and maintenance, and contain scheduled rent increases and certain other rent escalation clauses. Rent expense is recognized in our
consolidated financial statements on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases after consideration of rent holidays and improvement allowances, if applicable, with any assets purchased using a lessee improvement allowance
capitalized as fixed assets and depreciated over the shorter of their useful lives or the lease term.



Rent expense was $3.1 million, $2.9 million and $2.6 million for the years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



As of April 30, 2006, future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable
operating leases with initial or remaining terms in excess of one year are as follows (in thousands):

Of the $1.3 million in
total operating lease commitments for abandoned facilities, as summarized above, a reserve for $0.8 million has been provided and is included in the captions Accrued restructuringcurrent and Accrued restructuring, less
current portion in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at April 30, 2006. The remaining $0.5 million represents estimated sublease income.



In September 2005, we commenced a five-year operating lease of a building which serves as our headquarters in Sunnyvale, California. As part of this
agreement, we are required to maintain a $0.4 million irrevocable standby letter of credit with a major financial institution as a form of security. This letter of credit provides for automatic annual extensions, without amendment, through the end
of the lease term in August 2010.



In July 2001, we commenced a
five-year operating lease of a building which served as our research and development facility in Sunnyvale, California. As part of this agreement, we were required to maintain a $2.0 million irrevocable standby letter of credit with a major
financial institution as a form of security. This letter of credit provided for automatic annual extensions, without amendment, through the end of the lease term in June 2006. In accordance with the lease agreement, the standby letter of credit was
reduced by $0.5 million in each of October 2004 and December 2005, respectively, resulting in the remaining balance of $1.0 million as of April 30, 2006.

As of April 30, 2006 and 2005, we had $1.0 million and $0, respectively, recorded as short-term
restricted investments; we had $0.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively, recorded as long-term restricted investments in connection with the above two items.



In addition, we have firm purchase and other commitments with various suppliers and contract manufacturers to purchase component inventory,
manufacturing material and equipment. These agreements are enforceable and legally binding against us in the short-term and all amounts under these arrangements are due in fiscal 2007. Our minimum obligation at April 30, 2006 under these
arrangements was $3.6 million.



Note 11. Litigation



eSoft, Inc. v. Blue Coat Systems, Inc.



On March 13, 2006, eSoft, Inc. filed a complaint for patent
infringement against us in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The complaint alleges infringement of eSofts U.S. Patent 6,961,773 (the 773 Patent), and seeks unspecified monetary damages as well as an
injunction against future infringements. eSofts amended complaint, filed on June 9, 2006, identified our ProxySG and ProxyAV products as the alleged infringing products. eSoft has subsequently alleged damages in
the form of lost profits and/or a reasonable royalty for use of its patented technology.



We answered the amended complaint denying infringement and contending that eSofts patent was invalid. We recently filed several motions for summary judgment on these grounds. In addition, we have
requested the United States Patent Office to initiate inter partes reexamination proceedings for the 773 Patent in light of a number of prior art references never considered by the patent examiner during the original prosecution of
the patent application. The District Court has stayed the litigation pending the outcome of these proceedings.



On October 31, 2006, eSoft filed a complaint for declaratory relief seeking a determination that our U.S. Patent 7,103,794 was invalid and/or that
eSofts products did not infringe same. We answered this complaint on November 22, 2006, and, in a counterclaim, asserted our 794 Patent against eSofts InstaGate and ThreatWall Security Gateways. This case is also
pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado and likewise has been stayed pending the outcome of the reexamination of the 773 Patent.



IPO Allocation Litigation.



Beginning on May 16, 2001, a series of putative securities class actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
New York against the firms that underwrote our initial public offering, us, and some of our officers and directors. These cases have been consolidated under the case captioned In re CacheFlow, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities
Litigation, Civil Action No. 1-01-CV-5143. This is one of a number of actions coordinated for pretrial purposes as In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21 MC 92 with the first action filed on January 12, 2001.
Plaintiffs in the coordinated proceeding are bringing claims under the federal securities laws against numerous underwriters, companies, and individuals, alleging generally that defendant underwriters engaged in improper and undisclosed activities
concerning the allocation of shares in the IPOs of more than 300 companies during late 1998 through 2000. Among other things, the plaintiffs allege that the underwriters customers had to pay excessive brokerage commissions and purchase
additional shares of stock in the aftermarket in order to receive favorable allocations of shares in an IPO.



The consolidated amended complaint in our case seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of our common stock between
December 9, 1999 and December 6, 2000. Pursuant to a tolling agreement, the individual defendants were dismissed without prejudice. On February 19, 2003, the court denied our motion to dismiss the claims against us. The litigation is
now in discovery. In June 2004, a stipulation of settlement and release of claims against the issuer defendants, including us, was submitted to the court for approval. The terms of the settlement, if approved, would dismiss and release all claims
against the participating defendants (including us). In exchange for this dismissal, D&O insurance carriers would agree to guarantee a

recovery by the plaintiffs from the underwriter defendants of at least $1 billion, and the issuer defendants would agree to an assignment or surrender to the
plaintiffs of certain claims the issuer defendants may have against the underwriters. On August 31, 2005, the court confirmed preliminary approval of the settlement. On April 24, 2006, the court held a fairness hearing in connection with
the motion for final approval of the settlement. The court has yet to issue a ruling on the motion for final approval. The settlement remains subject to a number of conditions, including final court approval. On December 5, 2006, the Court of
Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed the courts October 2004 order certifying a class in six test cases that were selected by the underwriter defendants and plaintiffs in the coordinated proceeding. We are not one of the test cases and it
is unclear what impact this will have on the class certified in our case.



Derivative Litigation.



On May 18,
2005, a purported shareholder derivative action was filed in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County, alleging that certain of our officers and directors violated their fiduciary duties to the Company by making false or misleading
statements about our prospects between February 20, 2004 and May 27, 2004. On July 17, 2006, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, adding allegations that certain current and former officers and directors violated
their fiduciary duties to us since our initial public offering by granting and failing to account correctly for stock options. The amended complaint seeks various relief on our behalf from the individual defendants. On September 8, 2006,
another and substantively identical purported shareholder derivative action was filed against certain of our current and former officers and directors. Both of these state derivative cases have been consolidated.



On August 8 and September 5, 2006, two purported shareholder
derivative actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against certain of our current and former officers and directors. Like the state derivative actions, the federal derivative actions allege that
certain of our current and former officers and directors violated their fiduciary duties since our initial public offering by granting and failing to account correctly for stock options and seek various relief on our behalf from the individual
defendants. Both of these federal cases have been consolidated.



Dismissed Class Action Litigation.



Beginning on or about April 11, 2005, several putative class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against us and certain of our officers on behalf of purchasers of our
stock between February 20, 2004 and May 27, 2004 (the Class Period). The complaints alleged that during the Class Period defendants violated the federal securities laws by making false or misleading statements of material fact
about our financial prospects. Specifically, the complaints alleged claims under Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 20A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. All cases were consolidated as In re Blue Coat Systems,
Inc. Securities Litigation, No. C-05-1468 (N.D. Cal.). Following the appointment of a lead plaintiff and lead plaintiffs counsel, the lead plaintiff on October 7, 2005 filed a notice of voluntary dismissal without prejudice of the
consolidated action. On October 18, 2005, the Court dismissed the case without prejudice.



Although we cannot predict whether the IPO allocation cases will settle as proposed, and cannot predict the outcome of the derivative litigation or the SEC and other regulatory investigations, the costs of defending
these matters (including our obligations to indemnify current or former officers, directors, or employees) could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.



Periodically, we review the status of each significant matter and assess
potential financial exposure. Because of the uncertainties related to the (i) determination of the probability of an unfavorable outcome and (ii) amount and range of loss in the event of an unfavorable outcome, we are unable to make a
reasonable estimate of the liability that could result from any pending litigation described above and no accrual was recorded in our balance sheet as of April 30, 2006. As additional information becomes available, we will reassess the
probability and potential liability related to pending litigation, which could materially impact our results of operations and financial condition.

From time to time and in the ordinary course of business, we may be subject to various other claims and
litigation. Such claims could result in the expenditure of significant financial and other resources.



Note 12. Geographic and Product Category Information Reporting



We conduct business in one operating segment to design, develop, market and support proxy appliances. Our chief operating decision maker, our chief
executive officer, allocates resources and makes operating decisions based on financial data consistent with the presentation in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Our revenue consists of two product categories: product and service.
Total international revenue consists of sales from our U.S. operations to non-affiliated customers in other geographic regions. During fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, there were no intra-company sales, and no material long-lived assets were located in
our foreign subsidiaries.



Operating decisions regarding the
costs of our products and services are made with information that is consistent with the presentation in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Therefore, we currently believe it is impractical to separately present such costs.



Net revenue is attributed to geographic areas based on the
location of the customers. The following is a summary of net revenue by geographic area (in thousands):

Note 14. Subsequent events



Asset Purchase and Sale of Series A Preferred Stock



On June 22, 2006, we sold an aggregate of $42.1 million of Series A Preferred Stock. The financing consisted of 42,060
shares of our Series A Preferred Stock. The 42,060 shares of Series A Preferred Stock are initially convertible into 2.4 million shares of our common stock. The conversion price of each share of Series A Preferred Stock is $17.525 per share.
The Series A Preferred Stock matures six years from the issuance and we will be required to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at the face amount plus declared but unpaid dividends at that time. As a result of the mandatory redemption feature, the
Series A Preferred Stock will be classified outside of permanent equity. This event could cause an additional ownership change as provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an annual limitation could result in the
expiration of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before utilization.



On September 11, 2006, we completed the acquisition of certain assets of the NetCache business from Network Appliance (Nasdaq: NTAP) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement executed on June 22, 2006. The final consideration for the
transaction included $23.9 million in cash and 360,000 shares of our common stock. The cash proceeds were funded with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of $42.1 million in Series A Preferred Stock.



The NetCache business previously provided solutions to large enterprises to
manage internet access and security and control Web content and application acceleration. NetCache was a business unit previously owned by Network Appliance, Inc. Our primary purpose for acquiring certain assets of the NetCache business was to
increase our potential customer base through the conversion of existing NetCache customers to our proxy appliances. Only one employee joined us from Network Appliance as a result of the acquisition. Accordingly, our operating costs were not
materially impacted. We do not expect to generate a significant amount of revenue from the sale of NetCache appliances.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Blue Coat Systems, Inc.



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Blue Coat Systems, Inc. as of April 30, 2006 and 2005 (as restated), and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders
equity, and cash flows for the years ended April 30, 2006, 2005 (as restated) and 2004 (as restated). Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are
the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule 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 financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Blue Coat Systems, Inc. at April 30, 2006 and 2005 (as restated), and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended
April 30, 2006, 2005 (as restated) and 2004 (as restated), in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.



As described in Note 3, Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has restated previously issued financial statements as
of April 30, 2005 and for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2005 to correct its accounting for certain stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes.



We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
effectiveness of Blue Coat Systems, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 26, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion on managements assessment and an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Blue Coat Systems, Inc.



We have audited managements assessment, included in the accompanying
Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, that Blue Coat Systems, Inc. (the Company) did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2006, because of the effect of a
material weakness in the controls over the Companys accounting for, and disclosure of, stock-based compensation, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). The Company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 the company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.



A
material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The
following material weakness has been identified and included in managements assessment. The Company had ineffective controls over the accounting for, and disclosure of, stock-based compensation. Specifically, the Company lacked adequate
controls to ensure that all actions necessary for the grant of stock options were completed prior to the grant date. As a result, stock-based compensation expense, deferred stock-based compensation and additional paid-in capital for certain stock
options granted from November of 1999 to April of 2006 were incorrectly reported and disclosed in the Companys historical consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company has restated their consolidated financial statements and
related disclosures as of April 30, 2005 and for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2005 and made certain adjustments to its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. This material
weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2006 financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated March 26, 2007 on those financial statements.

In our opinion, managements assessment that Blue Coat Systems, Inc. did not maintain effective
internal control over financial reporting as of April 30 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO criteria. Also, in our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the achievement of
the objectives of the control criteria, Blue Coat Systems, Inc. has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2006, based on the COSO criteria.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.



None.



Item 9A. Controls and Procedures



Attached as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K are certifications of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), which are required pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The Controls and Procedures section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referenced in the certifications. The
report of Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, is set forth at the end of Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This report addresses Ernst & Young LLPs audit of our
internal control over financial reporting and of managements assessment of internal control over financial reporting set forth below. This section of the Annual Report on Form 10-K should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a
more complete understanding of the matters presented.



In this
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, we are restating our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of April 30, 2005 and for the years ended April 30, 2005 and 2004. The restatement includes
adjustments arising from an internal review of our historical financial statements, as well as the determinations of an independent committee of our Board of Directors (the Special Committee), assisted by independent legal counsel and
accounting experts, formed in July 2006 to conduct an internal investigation into our historical stock option granting practices that concluded that our historical measurement dates could not be relied upon. We also recorded adjustments affecting
our previously-reported financial statements for fiscal years 2000 through 2003, the effects of which are summarized in cumulative adjustments to our additional paid in capital, deferred stock-based compensation and accumulated deficit accounts as
of April 30, 2003.



Our management reviewed the
information made available to it by the Special Committee and performed its own detailed review of historical stock option grants as part of the effort to establish appropriate measurement dates. In connection with these procedures, our management
also conducted certain recertification procedures as part of the process of determining if there was evidence that would prevent our Board of Directors and current management from relying upon the work performed by the accounting, finance and legal
personnel as it relates to fiscal years 2004 and 2005, and the extent to which our prior accounting and controls can be relied upon for purposes of the preparation and certification of the restated consolidated financial statements.



As a result of the Special Committees investigation and findings, as
well as our internal review and recertification procedures, we have recorded additional stock-based compensation expense for numerous stock option grants made from November 1999 through May 2006 to correctly account for stock option grants for
which the Special Committee or management determined that the actual measurement date for accounting purposes was different from the stated grant date.



In addition to the deferred stock-based compensation amounts, and related payroll and withholding taxes, penalties, and interest, resulting from the
revision in measurement dates for historical stock option grants, our internal review also identified certain other errors in accounting determinations and judgments relating to stock-based compensation that have also been corrected in our restated
consolidated financial statements. These errors include: (a) incorrect amortization of cheap stock; (b) incorrect accounting for a pre-IPO loan issued to exercise stock options as a fixed award rather than as a variable award in fiscal
years 2000 and 2001; (c) incorrect accounting for modifications to equity awards; and (d) incorrect amortization of acquisition-related option grants. Also included in this restatement are certain other non-stock-based compensation items
which had not previously been recorded due to their immateriality, but which management was aware of outside of the course of the investigation and the procedures described above.



In assessing the Special Committees investigation and findings, as well as the results from our internal review and
recertification procedures related to the restatement of our consolidated financial statements in the

context of paragraph 139 of Public Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2, An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Performed in Conjunction with An Audit of Financial Statements, our management concluded that there was a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting with regard to our accounting for, and disclosure of, stock-based
compensation and related payroll taxes. Specifically, we lacked adequate controls to ensure that all actions necessary for the grant of stock options had been completed as of the stated grant date.



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures



Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that
are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and
Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.



The evaluation of our disclosure controls included a review of their objectives and design, our implementation of the controls and the effect of the
controls on the information generated for use in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the course of the controls evaluation, we reviewed identified data errors or control problems and sought to confirm that appropriate corrective actions, including
process improvements, were being undertaken. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions of management, including the CEO and CFO, concerning the effectiveness of the disclosure controls can be reported in our
periodic reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K. Many of the components of our disclosure controls are also evaluated on an ongoing basis by our internal finance organization. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our
disclosure controls and to modify them as necessary. We intend to maintain the disclosure controls as dynamic systems that we adjust as circumstances merit.



Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure
controls and procedures were not effective as of April 30, 2006, because of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting discussed below.



Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such
term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting as of April 30, 2006 based on the guidelines established in Internal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).



Managements assessment included an evaluation of the design of our
internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Management further considered the results of the Special Committees investigation and findings, as well as
the internal review and recertification procedures performed for purposes of the preparation and certification of the restated consolidated financial statements. During this evaluation, management identified a material weakness in our internal
control over financial reporting with regard to our accounting for, and disclosure of, stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes. Specifically, we lacked adequate controls to ensure that all actions necessary for the grant of stock options
had been completed as of the stated grant date.

Management has concluded that, as a result of this material weakness, our internal control over financial
reporting was not effective as of April 30, 2006, based upon the criteria issued by COSO. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that result in a more than remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.



Managements assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2006 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting
firm, as stated in their report, which is included at the end of Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



Beginning in calendar year 2005, we implemented improvements to procedures, processes, and systems to provide additional safeguards and greater internal
control over the stock option granting and administration function in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX) and evolving accounting guidance. These improvements included:



| |  |  | The implementation of a calendar system in February 2005 set forth in advance the dates on which we were to grant stock options. The calendar imposed a more
standardized practice for the timing of the grant of stock options. However, the calendar served more as a guideline than an established procedure and did not adequately mitigate the material weakness discussed above; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Hiring additional personnel, segregating responsibilities, adding reviews and reconciliations, and redefining roles and responsibilities.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



There were no changes in our internal
control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 in connection with the aforementioned evaluation that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.



To remediate the material
weakness identified by our management, we have made the following changes to our internal controls prior to the date of this filing:



| |  |  | We have adopted a policy requiring all option grants, whether to board members, officers or employees, be made on a predetermined schedule. Specifically,
grants to new employees or to recently promoted employees will be approved by the Compensation Committee or the Stock Option Committee, as applicable, after the employees first day of employment or the date of the employees promotion.
Annual grants to existing employees will be approved by the Compensation Committee at a meeting scheduled prior to the beginning of a fiscal year for a specified date in that fiscal year. Option grants to new hires and existing employees will be
effective on the date of grant, which will be the third Thursday of a calendar month following the date of approval. As a result, grants to new and promoted employees will be limited to one specific date each
month.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have adopted a policy limiting the granting authority of the different groups that grant stock options. The Stock Option Committees authority is limited to
the ability to make option grants that (i) are to individuals who are neither (a) executive officers of Blue Coat or members of our Board of Directors, nor (b) direct reports to a member of the Stock Option Committee, (ii) as to
any individual grant, consist of 20,000 or fewer underlying shares, and (iii) have an exercise price equal to or not less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the grant. The policy further requires that
any grants to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, be made by the Compensation Committee after recommendation from the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has
the authority to make all other grants permitted under our stock option plans.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have expanded the size of the Stock Option Committee from one to two directors. The Stock Option Committee previously consisted of our Chief Executive Officer,
Brian NeSmith. In the future, the Stock Option Committee will consist of our Chief Executive Officer and an independent director.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | We have adopted a policy requiring that all option grants by the Compensation Committee be approved at a meeting of the Compensation Committee, and that the actions
of such body be documented in minutes of the meeting. The policy prohibits the Compensation Committee from granting options by written consent. The policy allows the Stock Option Committee to document the grant of options by unanimous written
consent, provided that the written consent is signed by both members of the Stock Option Committee on or prior to the effective date of the written consent.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Additionally, management is investing in ongoing efforts to continuously improve the control environment and has committed
considerable resources to the continuous improvement of the design, implementation, documentation, testing and monitoring of our internal controls. Specifically, in addition to the controls identified above that have been implemented as of the date
of this filing, we will be implementing the following measures for our fiscal year ending April 30, 2007:



| |  |  | The Special Committee has recommended, and we are in the process of implementing, a series of improvements in our internal controls. We intend to revise
documentation and to create appropriate controls for annual, new hire and promotion grant preparation, presentation for approval, entry into Equity Edge, and notification to employees. We have already adopted a specific internal control that all
internal approvals of stock option grants must be obtained prior to presentation for any Stock Option Committee or Compensation Committee action. We plan to develop an annual plan or budget for issuance of options, together with guidelines for the
number and types of awards that are offered to the different salary grades, which shall be reviewed and approved annually by the Compensation Committee after or in connection with the Board of Directors approval of the annual business plan.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer, we will establish cross-functional training for personnel in all areas associated with the stock option granting
process. The training will cover (i) the stock option and other equity award programs and related improvements to equity compensation controls, processes and procedures, (ii) the accounting implications of equity award grants, and
(iii) the legal and tax implications of equity award grants. We will also require all personnel responsible for stock option administration, including (i) the Chief Executive Officer and all direct reports, (ii) finance department
members, (iii) legal department members, (iv) human resource department members, (v) stock administration department members, and (vi) all new employees involved in the above-listed functions or roles, be trained at least
annually. Finally, we will be formalizing our procedures for the use of Equity Audit, a module that interfaces directly with Equity Edge and enables auditing functionality of our stock option database.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have established a search for an experienced General Counsel with particular strength in public company securities disclosure, financial reporting matters and
corporate governance. When hired, the new General Counsel will report directly to our Chief Executive Officer.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We plan to expand the size of our Board of Directors, focusing in particular on the relative degree to which each candidate has the ability to devote substantial
attention to Blue Coat matters, their expertise in areas that complement the strengths of other board members, and their experience with good corporate governance. Our Board of Directors has tasked our Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee with
reviewing current committee assignments, with a goal of changing such assignments to the extent deemed appropriate to even out the demands placed upon the members of the board, utilizing the particular strengths of the individual board members, and
ensuring that important matters are monitored sufficiently. Finally, we have established a Board of Directors policy that at least one member (on a rotating basis) of the Board of Directors should attend directors college or
the equivalent each year. The Board of Directors has also approved resolutions stating that specialized update training by board members in matters of corporate governance, executive and incentive compensation, and financial reporting are highly
encouraged.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls



Our management, including the CEO and the CFO, do not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls over
financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. 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 their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide
absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because
of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. 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 the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to errors or fraud may occur and not be detected.

our financial accounting and reporting process, system of internal control, audit process, and process for monitoring compliance with laws and regulations
and our Code of Business Conduct. The Audit Committee annually appoints an independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements. In addition, the Audit Committee approves the scope of the annual audits and fees to be paid
to our auditors. Three directors currently comprise the Audit committee: Mr. Barth, Mr. Hanna, and Mr. Howes (who was elected to the Audit Committee on November 17, 2006). Jay Shiveley was a member of the Audit Committee until he
passed away on October 19, 2006; he was independent under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules. All current members of the Audit Committee are independent under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules.



The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that each of
Mr. Barth and Mr. Hanna qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined by Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Board of Directors of the Company has also
determined that each of Mr. Barth, Mr. Hanna and Mr. Howes is independent, as that term is defined for audit committee members by applicable Nasdaq rules.



Compensation Committee. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors (the Compensation Committee) held no meetings and acted by written consent in lieu of a meeting on seventeen (17) occasions. The Compensation Committee reviews the performance of our executive officers,

Governance Committee until he passed away on October 19, 2006; he was independent under applicable Nasdaq rules.



Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance



The members of the Board of Directors, our executive officers and persons who hold more than ten percent of our outstanding Common Stock are subject to
the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which require them to file reports with respect to their ownership of our Common Stock and their transactions in such Common Stock. Based upon
(i) the copies of Section 16(a) reports that we received from such persons for transactions in the Common Stock and their Common Stock holdings for the year ended April 30, 2006 and (ii) the written representations received from
one or more of such persons that no annual Form 5 reports were required to be filed by them for the year ended April 30, 2006, we believe that all reporting requirements under Section 16(a) for such fiscal year were met in a timely manner
by our executive officers, Board members and greater than ten-percent stockholders.

|(1) | Based on an aggregate of 1,126,429 options granted to employees in fiscal year 2006. Each of the options granted to Mr. NeSmith, Mr. de Simone and Mr. Mullaney
was granted on May 26, 2005 and become exercisable in 48 equal monthly installments. Mr. Royals option was granted on May 2, 2005 and becomes exercisable for 25% of the shares after 12 months of employment and for the balance in
36 equal monthly installments. Mr. Ayers was granted options on May 26, 2005 and August 16, 2005, which become exercisable in 48 equal monthly installments and 12 equal monthly installments, respectively. The exercise price for each
option may be paid in cash, in shares of Common Stock valued at fair market value on the exercise date or through a cashless exercise procedure involving a same-day sale of the purchased shares. Options have a maximum term of 10 years measured from
the option grant date, subject to earlier termination in the event of the optionees cessation of service. Under each of the options, the option shares will vest if we are acquired by merger or asset sale, unless the acquiring company assumes
the options. The options will also become fully vested in the event that the optionees service is involuntarily terminated within 18 months following a change in control. See Employment Contracts, Severance and Change in Control
Arrangements.

|(2) | The 5% and 10% assumed annual rates of compounded stock price appreciation are mandated by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. There can be no assurance provided to any
executive officer or any other holder of our securities that the actual stock price appreciation over the 10-year option term will be at the assumed 5% and 10% levels or at any other defined level. Unless the market price of the Common Stock
appreciates over the option term, no value will be realized from the option grants made to the executive officers.

Directors, except that Mr. Barth is paid a director fee in the amount of $45,000 per annum for serving as Chairman of the Audit Committee.



Non-employee directors are eligible for periodic automatic option grants under our 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan) and our 1999
Director Plan (the Director Plan). Under the current provisions of the Incentive Plan and Director Plan, each individual who becomes a non-employee director will be granted options to purchase 10,000 shares on the date such individual
joins the Board of Directors and each individual who becomes Chairman of the Audit Committee will be granted options to purchase 7,500 shares on the date such individual becomes Chairman of the Audit Committee, provided in each case such individual
has not previously been one of our employees. In addition, at each annual meeting of stockholders, (i) each non-employee director who will continue serving as a member of the Board of Directors will be granted an additional option to purchase
4,000 shares, (ii) each individual who will continue serving as a member of the Audit Committee thereafter will be granted an additional option to purchase 2,500 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) each individual who will continue serving
as the chairman of the Audit Committee thereafter will be granted an additional option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock. The option price for each automatic option grant will be equal to the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the
automatic grant date. Each initial automatic grant shall become exercisable for 25% of the shares upon the optionees completion of 12 months of service from the date of grant and the balance of the shares in annual installments over the
three-year period thereafter; each annual automatic grant shall become exercisable in full on the first anniversary of the grant date. In addition, initial and annual automatic grants become exercisable in full in the event we experience a change in
control due to acquisition by merger or asset sale. Directors are eligible to receive additional options and be issued shares of Common Stock directly under the Incentive Plan, and directors who are also our employees are also eligible to
participate in our Employee Stock Purchase Plan.



On
November 14 2005, Mr. Howes was granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $52.00 in connection with joining the Board of Directors. On September 20, 2005, the date of our last annual meeting
of stockholders, Mr. Hanna received an option to purchase 4,000 shares at an exercise price of $42.47 per share in connection with his continuing service on the Board of Directors. On September 20,

2005, Mr. Barth received an option to purchase 3,000 shares at an exercise price of $42.47 per share in connection with his continuing service on the
Board of Directors. On September 20, 2005, each of Messrs. Hanna and Barth received an option to purchase 2,500 shares at an exercise price of $42.47 per share in connection with their services on the Audit Committee. In addition,
Mr. Barth received an option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock on September 20, 2005 at an exercise price of $42.47 per share in connection with his service as Chairman of the Audit Committee.



On the date of our next Annual Meeting, each of Messrs. Barth, Hanna, Howes
and Geeslin will receive an option to purchase 4,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with his continuing service on the Board of Directors. In addition, each of Messrs. Barth, Hanna and Howes will receive an additional option to purchase 2,500
shares of Common Stock for continuing to serve as a member of the Audit Committee. Mr. Barth will also receive an additional option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock for continuing to serve as the Chairman of the Audit Committee.



Employment Contracts, Severance and Change in Control Arrangements



The Compensation Committee, as plan administrator of the
1999 Stock Incentive Plan and 2000 Supplemental Stock Option Plan, has the authority to provide for accelerated vesting of the shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options held by the Named Officers and any other person in connection with
certain changes in control. Under the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan and 2000 Supplemental Stock Option Plan, each outstanding option and all shares of restricted stock will generally become fully vested upon a change in control unless the surviving
corporation assumes the option or award or replaces it with a comparable award. In addition, an option or award will become fully exercisable and fully vested if the holders employment or service is involuntarily terminated within 18 months
following the change in control.



The employment of the Named
Officers may be terminated at any time. We entered into an agreement with Mr. NeSmith, dated February 24, 1999, which provides for acceleration of vesting of option shares as if Mr. NeSmith remained employed for one additional year in
the event of a change in control.



On May 2, 2005, we
extended an offer of employment to Kevin S. Royal to serve as our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer beginning in May 2005. Mr. Royals offer letter provides for an annual base salary of $300,000. He is eligible to
participate in our executive/management bonus plan. Pursuant to the offer letter, Mr. Royal was granted an option to purchase 75,000 shares of Common Stock, which vest 25% after twelve months of service and the balance on a monthly basis over
the next thirty-six months of service and are subject to the terms and conditions of our 1999 Stock Incentive Plan. Mr. Royals employment with us is on an at-will basis.



On November 20, 2006, we entered into a letter agreement with Tom Ayers, our then Senior Vice President of Worldwide Field
Operations, providing for his continued employment through April 30, 2007. Under the agreement, we agreed that we would not terminate Mr. Ayerss employment prior to April 30, 2007, except for cause as defined in the agreement.
Mr. Ayers will continue to receive his annual salary and benefits in accordance with our existing policies. For the months of November and December 2006, he was paid 100% of his variable compensation based on the 2007 Sales Compensation Plan.
Provided Mr. Ayerss employment does not end prior to April 30, 2007 due to voluntary resignation or a termination by us for cause, upon his separation from employment, Mr. Ayers will become entitled to a severance payment of
$57,692 or a lesser amount if he leaves our employ before April 30, 2007. The agreement also contains certain restrictive covenants, releases and other customary terms and conditions.



On December 3, 2006, we extended an offer of employment to Kevin Biggs to
serve as our Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales. Mr. Biggss offer letter provides for an annual base salary of $300,000. He is eligible to participate in our Sales Compensation Plan, with target commission earnings for the fiscal
year of $350,000 based on attainment of sales revenue objectives as set forth under the plan. He is to be provided a

relocation bonus. Pursuant to the offer letter, Mr. Biggs is to be granted an option to purchase 35,400 shares of Common Stock, vesting over four years,
and a restricted stock award of 35,400 shares, vesting over four years. The option and restricted stock award are subject to the terms and conditions of our 1999 Stock Incentive Plan. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in our 1999 Stock
Incentive Plan) 50% of shares purchasable under the stock option grant and 50% of the restricted stock grant will vest immediately. Mr. Biggss employment with us is on an at-will basis. If his employment is terminated for reasons other
than for cause, and he executes our standard severance agreement, he will receive a severance payment equal to six months of base salary.



Compensation Committee Report



The Compensation Committee has the exclusive authority to establish the level of base salary payable to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and
certain other of our executive officers and has the authority to administer our 1999 Stock Incentive Plan, 2000 Supplemental Stock Option Plan, and Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, the Compensation Committee has the responsibility for
approving the individual bonus programs to be in effect for the CEO and executive officers each fiscal year.



The Compensation Committee relies upon judgment and not upon rigid guidelines or formulas in determining the amount and mix of compensation elements for
each executive officer. Key factors affecting the Compensation Committees judgments include the nature and scope of the executive officers responsibilities and the officers effectiveness in leading initiatives to achieve corporate
goals. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, among the factors considered by the Compensation Committee were the recommendations of the CEO with respect to the compensation of our executive officers (other than the CEO).



General Compensation Policy. The Compensation Committees
fundamental policy is to offer our executive officers competitive compensation opportunities based upon our overall performance, their individual contribution to our financial success and their personal performance. Each executive officers
compensation package generally consists of: (i) base salary, (ii) cash bonus awards and (iii) long-term stock-based incentive awards.



Base Salary. The base salary for each executive officer is generally set at the time the officer commences employment based on a review of
published surveys, with particular emphasis on general market levels for companies of similar revenue. Periodic merit raises have been awarded to executive officers on a limited basis where the survey data indicated that the officers base
salary was substantially below that of individuals holding comparable positions.



Cash Bonuses. In fiscal 2006, a quarterly cash bonus was paid to each of the executive officers. Mr. Ayers was also eligible for incentive compensation based on the achievement of specific quarterly
revenue objectives. In awarding bonuses to the executive officers, the Compensation Committee took into account our achievement of specific revenue and expense control targets as well as each officers achievement of specific personal
objectives established at the beginning of each fiscal quarter. One-half of the bonus was based on us meeting our specific revenue and expense control targets, and one-half of the bonus was based on each person achieving his or her specific personal
objectives. Actual bonuses paid reflect an individuals accomplishment of his or her specific objectives as well as our achievement of the revenue and expense control targets.



Long-Term Incentive Compensation. Generally, a significant option grant is made in the year that an officer
commences employment. Thereafter, option grants may be made at varying times and in varying amounts at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. Generally, the size of each grant is set at a level that the Compensation Committee deems
appropriate to create a meaningful opportunity for stock ownership based upon the individuals position with us, the individuals potential for future responsibility and promotion, the individuals performance in the recent period and
the number of unvested options held by the individual at the time of the new grant. The relative weight given to each of these factors will vary from individual to individual at the Compensation Committees discretion.



140



---

##### Table of Contents

Each grant allows the officer to acquire shares of our Common Stock at a fixed price per share over a
specified period of time. The option vests in periodic installments over a one to four year period, contingent upon the executive officers continued employment with us. The vesting schedule and the number of shares granted are established to
ensure a meaningful incentive in each year following the year of grant. Accordingly, the option will provide a return to the executive officer only if he or she remains in our employ, and then only if the market price of our Common Stock appreciates
over the option term.



CEO Compensation. For the
2006 fiscal year, Mr. NeSmiths base salary was unchanged from the prior year. Mr. NeSmith participated in the officer bonus plan discussed above. Mr. NeSmith received an option to purchase 27,000 shares during the fiscal year.



Tax Limitation. Under the Federal tax laws, a
publicly-held company such as us will not be allowed a federal income tax deduction for compensation paid to certain executive officers to the extent that compensation exceeds $1.0 million per officer in any year. To qualify for an exemption from
the $1.0 million deduction limitation, the stockholders approved a limitation under our 1999 Stock Incentive Plan on the maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which any one participant may be granted stock options and stock appreciation
rights per calendar year. Because this limitation was adopted, any compensation deemed paid to an executive officer when he or she exercises an outstanding option under the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan with an exercise price equal to the fair market
value of the option shares on the grant date will qualify as performance-based compensation that will not be subject to the $1.0 million limitation. The Committee has not considered whether to limit the dollar amount of all other compensation
payable to our executive officers to the $1.0 million limitation.

|(1) | Consists of options outstanding under the 1996 Stock Plan and options granted and shares available under the following plans: 1999 Stock Incentive Plan, 1999 Director Option Plan
and Employee Stock Purchase Plan (Stock Plans). Each year, commencing with the year 2000, the aggregate number of shares authorized under the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan automatically increases by a number equal to the lesser of 5% of the
total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on January 1 of such year, or 400,000 shares. Accordingly, 400,000 shares were added to the 1999 Stock Incentive Plan on January 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006. Each year, commencing
with the year 2000, the aggregate number of shares authorized under the 1999 Director Option Plan automatically increases by 20,000 shares or such lesser number of shares as our Board of Directors may determine. Accordingly, 20,000 shares were added
to the 1999 Director Option Plan on January 1, 2005. The Board of Directors determined that no shares would be added to the Director Option Plan on January 1, 2006. Each year, commencing with the year 2000, the number of shares under the
Employee Stock Purchase Plan automatically increases by 100,000 shares or such lesser number of shares as our Board of Directors may determine. Accordingly, 100,000 shares were added to our Employee Stock Purchase Plan on January 31, 2005 and
January 31, 2006. The Board of Directors may authorize a lesser number of shares to be added to the reserve for Stock Plans, as was done in 2003 and 2006.

2000. The Supplemental Plan is a non-shareholder approved plan. Non-statutory options and restricted stock awards may be granted under the Supplemental Plan to our employees or consultants who are neither executive officers nor outside directors at
the time of grant. The Board has authorized 600,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the Supplemental Plan. All option grants will have an exercise price per share of no less than 25% of the fair market value per share of Common Stock on
the grant date. Each option will vest in installments over the optionees period of service with us. The options will vest on an accelerated basis in the event the Company is acquired and (i) the options are not assumed or replaced by the
acquiring entity or (ii) the optionee is subject to an involuntary termination. Additional features of the Supplemental Plan are outlined in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management



The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2006, certain
information with respect to shares beneficially owned by (i) each person who is known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of any class of our voting securities, (ii) each of our directors as of that date,
(iii) each of the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table included in Item 12, and (iv) all current directors and executive officers as a group. Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with
Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under this rule, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In
addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares (for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant or upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock) within sixty
(60) days of the date as of which the information is provided. Shares issuable pursuant to the (i) exercise of stock options and warrants exercisable within sixty (60) days of December 31, 2006 and (ii) conversion of shares
of Preferred Stock into Common Stock convertible within sixty (60) days of December 31, 2006, are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person holding the options, warrants or Preferred Stock, but are not outstanding for
purposes of computing the percentage of any other person. As a result, the percentage ownership of outstanding shares of any person as shown in the following table does not necessarily reflect the persons actual voting power at any particular
date.

Audit fees consist of
fees related to the financial statement audit and fees related to the review of the Special Committees internal stock option investigation under the direction of the Audit Committee and related activities. The financial statement audit fees
for the years ended April 30, 2006 and 2005 were for professional services rendered for the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements, including the audit of our internal control over financial reporting, the reviews of our
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, statutory audits required in international locations and consents. Fees for the review of the Special Committees internal stock option investigation under the direction of the Audit Committee and related
activities were for Ernst & Youngs audit of our restated consolidated financial statements for fiscal years 2005 and 2004 included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006.



The tax fees for the years ended April 30, 2006 and 2005 were for
services related to tax compliance, including tax advice and tax planning.



No audit-related or other fees were incurred.



Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



Our Audit Committee adopted pre-approval policies and procedures for audit and non-audit services during fiscal year 2006. All audit, audit related, tax
and permissible non-audit services are approved in advance by our Audit Committee to assure they do not impair the independence of our independent registered public accountants. At the beginning of the fiscal year, management prepares an estimate of
all such fees for the duration of the fiscal year and submits the estimate to the Audit Committee for its review and pre-approval. Any modifications to the estimates will be submitted to the Audit Committee for pre-approval at the next regularly
scheduled Audit Committee meeting, or if action is required sooner, to the Chairman of the Audit Committee. All fees paid to our independent registered public accounting firm during fiscal year 2006 were in accordance with this pre-approval policy.



Based on the Audit Committees discussion with management
and the independent registered public accounting firm, and the Audit Committees review of the representations of management and the report of the independent registered public accounting firm to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee
recommended, and the Board of Directors subsequently approved, the inclusion of the audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Audit Committee also recommended, and the Board of directors subsequently approved, the selection of Ernst & Young LLP, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007.
