The name, business address, principal occupation and citizenship of each executive officer, director and controlling person of the reporting person are contained in Attachment A. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration Rentrak Japan obtained the funds to purchase the 614,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer through bank loans with Sakura Bank (300 million yen) and Industrial Bank of Japan (150 million yen). Item 4. Purpose of Transaction Rentrak Japan and Culture Convenience Club Co., Ltd ("CCC") are affiated corporations. In order to further focus on each affiliated corporation's core business activities, CCC is transferring its shares of the Issuer to Rentrak Japan. Rentrak Japan intends to acquire the remainder of CCC's Common Stock of the Issuer in the future. Rentrak Japan and its affiliates have no current plan to purchase any significant number of additional shares of the Issuer's Common Stock, to sell any significant number of shares, or to take or cause any other extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer (a) Rentrak Japan now owns 614,000 shares of the common stock of Rentrak Corporation, which, to Rentrak Japan's knowledge, currently represents approximately 5.69 percent of the Issuer's currently issued and outstanding Common Stock.

CCC and the Issuer are currently parties to a Business Cooperation Agreement which provides CCC with certain rights and obligations in regards to the Issuer. Based on the fact that this transfer of Common Stock is between affiliated companies, Rentrak Japan plans on entering into an agreement similar to the Business Cooperation Agreement with the Issuer.
