accepts our offer, he/she should not bring to Macrovision from his or her

     Company will contribute up to a maximum of $5,000 towards the cost of your
     repatriation from the United Kingdom to the United States.

6.   HOURS OF WORK

     Your normal working week will consist of 40 hours (excluding lunch breaks)
     from Monday through Friday, with such additional hours (and without

     your duties and in order to meet the requirements of the business.

7.   HOLIDAYS AND HOLIDAY PAY

     7.1  You are entitled, in addition to the usual bank and public holidays,
          to 20 working days' paid holiday in each calendar year of employment.
          Where you are employed for part of a calendar year only - either on
          commencement or termination of your employment - you will be entitled
          to paid holiday pro rata to the number of complete calendar months
          worked by you in the relevant calendar year. Your manager must approve
          the dates of your holiday beforehand. Unused holiday entitlement may
          not be carried forward to the next year without the written permission
          of your manager.

     7.2  On the termination of your employment, where you have taken more or
          less than your holiday entitlement as calculated above, an adjustment
          based on your normal rate of pay will be made in your final pay. The
          adjustment will be either by way of deduction if you have taken more
          than your entitlement, or by way of an additional payment where you
          have taken less than your entitlement, calculated on a pro rata basis
          by reference to the number of days' holiday in respect of which such
          adjustment is made.

<PAGE>

8.   SICKNESS AND SICK PAY

     8.1  If you are absent from work due to illness or injury or for any other
          reason you must let the Company know by 10.30am on your first day of
          absence that you will be unable to attend. You must also keep the
          Company advised regularly if you continue to be absent and of your
          likely return date. If you are absent due to sickness or injury for
          one day or more, immediately you return to work you must obtain and
          complete a sickness self-certification and submit it to your manager.

     8.2  If you are absent for more than seven consecutive days (including
          Saturdays and Sundays) due to illness or injury you must obtain a
          doctor's certificate where appropriate at your own expense and give or
          send it immediately to your manager. Thereafter any further absence
          must continue to be supported by doctor's certificates.

     8.3  Failure to comply with the above procedures will result in the loss of
          the discretionary element of Company sick pay (referred to below) and
          may also disqualify you from receiving Statutory Sick Pay ("SSP"). For
          the avoidance of doubt the Company will be entitled to terminate your
          employment in accordance with the terms of this Contract (whether with
          or without notice as appropriate in the circumstances) during any
          period of sickness absence.

    8.3.1 Provided that you have complied with the requirements above, the
          Company will continue to pay you at your normal rate of pay during any
          unavoidable absence through sickness or injury (whether continuous or
          intermittent) up to a maximum, in any period of 12 consecutive months,
          of four weeks at full pay and thereafter at the discretion of the
          Company. Any payment made to you under this provision will include any
          entitlement that you may have to receive SSP from the Company. Company
          sick pay will be reduced by the amount of any Social Security benefits
          recoverable by you (whether or not recovered) in respect of your
          illness or injury.

<PAGE>

     8.4  Your "qualifying days" for SSP purposes are Monday to Friday
          (inclusive).

     8.5  The Company will be entitled, at its expense, to require you to be
          examined by an independent medical practitioner of the Company's
          choice at any time (whether or not you are absent by reason of
          sickness or injury) and you agree that the doctor carrying out the
          examination may disclose to and discuss with the Company the results
          of the examination.

9.   PENSION AND OTHER BENEFITS

     9.1  There is no Company pension scheme and no contracting out certificate
          has been obtained in respect of your employment.

     9.2  You will be eligible for immediate insurance cover under the Company's
          life assurance scheme in both the United States and in the United
          Kingdom, (or any other scheme providing an equivalent benefit) subject
          to the rules of the scheme from time to time and such evidence of
          health as such insurance company may require.

     9.3  You will be eligible for immediate medical and dental insurance in
          both the United States and in the United Kingdom and permanent health
          insurance.

<PAGE>

10.  CONFIDENTIALITY

     You acknowledge that you have reviewed and signed a copy of the Invention
     and Non-Disclosure Agreement ("the Non-Disclosure Agreement"). The
     Non-Disclosure Agreement, for the avoidance of doubt, forms part of your
     Contract.

11.  DISCIPLINARY AND GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE

     The Company does not operate a formal disciplinary procedure that is
     applicable to your employment. If you have any grievance in relation to
     your employment you should raise it with your manager in writing. If the
     matter is not resolved you may then take it up in writing with the Chief
     Executive Officer whose decision will be final.

12.  TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

     12.1 Subject as follows the Company can terminate your employment at any
          time by giving you six (6) calendar month's written notice.

     12.2 You may terminate your employment at any time by giving the Company at
          least three (3) calendar month's written notice.

     12.3 The Company may terminate your employment without giving the notice
          referred to in Clause 12.1 by paying you your basic salary and
          pro-rated bonus which for the purposes of this Clause will be
          calculated at 40% of salary and is not discretionary (less any
          applicable deductions) in lieu of the notice period or in lieu of the
          remainder of the notice period if, at the Company's request, you have
          worked during part of the notice period. In addition, payment in lieu
          of notice for purposes of this Clause 12.3 shall mean that any
          unvested stock options granted shall be accelerated as though you had
          been an employee of the Company during the remainder of the notice
          period.

     12.4 The Company has the right to terminate your employment without notice
          in the case of just cause. "Just Cause" for termination will mean a
          vote of the Company's Board of Directors, acting in good faith based
          upon the

<PAGE>

          information then known to the Company after a reasonable investigation
          (including, at a minimum, review of your written response to the
          information alleged to constitute Just Cause and your opportunity to
          address the Board), that determines that you have committed or engaged
          in repeated intentional misconduct in connection with your duties

     your control. The ownership of all such property and documents will at all
     time remain vested in the Company.
