Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On March 20, 2014, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Rentrak Corporation (“Rentrak”) approved a plan to sell its Pay-Per-Transaction® (“PPT®”) business and the related assets. While the PPT® business has been a longstanding legacy business of Rentrak, the business has been in a state of decline due to the decline of physical DVD disk rentals from retail stores. While a program to sell the PPT® business has been initiated, Rentrak cannot at this time predict when the completion of its exit from the PPT® business, or the closing of any related divestiture transaction, will occur. Commencing with the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, all current and historical results of the PPT® business will be reported as discontinued operations. As of the date of the filing of this report, Rentrak is unable to make a determination as to an estimate or range of estimates with respect to the costs it will incur in connection with the divestiture of the PPT® business. Accordingly, Rentrak will file an amendment to this Form 8-K after an estimate or range of estimates becomes available.
