    <footnotes>
        <footnote id="F1">On 08/07/2007, Reporting Person was awarded performance-based restricted stock units (RSUs). Each performance-based RSU represents a contingent right to receive one (1) share of VeriSign common stock once vested. If certain performance criterion is achieved, one hundred percent (100%) of the grant vests on the third anniversary of the date of grant, subject to applicable taxes upon delivery. If certain performance criterion is not achieved, fifty percent (50%) of the grant vests on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to applicable taxes upon delivery, and the remaining fifty percent (50%) of the grant is forfeited.</footnote>
    </footnotes>

    <remarks>Reporting Person's total direct holdings disclosed in Table I, Item 5 under Amount of Securities Beneficially Owned Following Reported Transaction(s) includes shares acquired through the VeriSign 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

This amended Form 4 corrects the prior reporting of restricted stock units (RSUs) as derivative securities in Table II to non-derivative securities in Table I.</remarks>
