Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Agreements upon the completion
of Issuer's Initial Public Offering on December 14, 1999.

      The Reporting Person and the Issuer entered into an Investors Rights
Agreement dated November 2, 1999. Under the terms of the Investors Rights
Agreement, the Reporting Person has certain rights to require the Issuer to
register the Shares held by the Reporting Person. The Reporting Person
periodically makes strategic investments in companies with complementary or
compatible technologies or products, such as the Issuer. Pursuant to a Marketing

developing a digital video watermarking copy protection solution to address the

exclusive right to market the technology in the field of use.

      The Reporting Person and the Issuer entered into a Strategic Investment

Issuer issued 1,089,983 of Issuer Common Stock to the Reporting Person in return

this Schedule 13D. Among the provisions of the agreement, under certain
circumstances, the Issuer is required to register the Shares held by the
Reporting Person for possible resale by the Reporting Person and the Reporting
Person's ability to acquire additional Shares is restricted. Pursuant to the
agreement, the Issuer appointed the president of the Reporting Person to the
Issuer's board of directors. The source of the $21.8 million purchase price was
the working capital of the Reporting Person.
