Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 28, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Macrovision Corporation (the “Company”) approved the amendment of the employment offer letters of its Chief Executive Officer Alfred Amoroso and its Chief Financial Officer James Budge. A copy of the amendment to Mr. Amoroso’s offer letter is furnished as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and a copy of the amendment to Mr. Budge’s offer letter is furnished as Exhibit 10.2 to this report.

Pursuant to Mr. Amoroso’s offer letter dated June 8, 2005, the Company agreed to make annual stock option grants to Mr. Amoroso in each of 2006, 2007 and 2008 for 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Such grants are to be granted in equal installments on March 1 and September 1 of each such year. The amendment provides that on the September 1, 2006 grant date, the Company will grant Mr. Amoroso 125,000 shares of restricted stock instead of the stock option grant that would have otherwise been granted to him on such date pursuant to his offer letter. In addition, the Compensation Committee further approved the amendment to Mr. Amoroso’s offer letter to grant him restricted stock instead of stock options for the future semiannual grants in 2007 and 2008.

Pursuant to Mr. Budge’s offer letter dated July 22, 2005, the Company agreed to make annual stock option grants to Mr. Budge in each of 2006 and 2007 for 75,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Such grants are to be granted in equal installments on March 1 and September 1 of each such year. The amendment provides that on the September 1, 2006 grant date, the Company will grant Mr. Budge 37,500 shares of restricted stock instead of the stock option grant that would have otherwise been granted to him on such date pursuant to his offer letter. In addition, the Compensation Committee further approved the amendment to Mr. Budge’s offer letter to grant him restricted stock instead of stock options for the future semiannual grants in 2007.

These restricted stock awards will be granted at a price per share of the par value of the stock, which is $0.001 per share, and will have a 4 year vesting schedule. Vesting will commence as of the applicable date of grant and these shares will vest in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Macrovision Corporation 2000 Equity Incentive Plan as follows: twenty-five percent (25%) of the restricted stock award shall vest on each anniversary of the applicable grant date, subject to the recipient continuing to be an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries through the applicable vesting date.
