Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 26, 2010, TiVo Inc. (the “Company”) entered into the Third Amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Company’s Rights Agreement, dated as of January 16, 2001 (the “Rights Agreement), by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Shareowner Services (the “Rights Agent”), as amended by the First Amendment thereto, dated as of February 20, 2001 and the Second Amendment thereto, dated as of April 12, 2006. Pursuant to Section 26 of the Rights Agreement, the Company amended the Rights Agreement to add the defined term “Designated Holder” for the purpose of providing a limited exemption to BlackRock Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (“BlackRock”) from the definition of “Acquiring Person” under the Rights Agreement. This limited exemption permits BlackRock to become the beneficial owner of up to 16.99% of the common shares of the Company then outstanding without becoming an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement) rather than the 14.99% threshold otherwise applicable. BlackRock will be deemed a Designated Holder until the earliest of (a) such time as BlackRock ceases to beneficially own 10% or more of the common shares of the Company, (b) BlackRock Inc. or any parent entity is subject to a change of control or (c) BlackRock reports or is required to report on Schedule 13D (or any successor or comparable report) its beneficial ownership of common shares of the Company. The foregoing description of the Third Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable provisions of the Third Amendment, which will be filed as an exhibit with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the period ending January 31, 2010.
