ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This Asset Purchase Agreement (the "AGREEMENT") is made as of
June 16, 2004, by and among InstallShield Software Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("SELLER"), Macrovision Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"PARENT"), Macrovision Europe Limited, a company organized under the laws of
England and Wales, and Macrovision International Holdings LP, a limited
partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (collectively with
Parent, the "PURCHASER").

RECITALS

A. Seller and the UK Subsidiary are engaged in the business
of developing, marketing, licensing and selling software and services related to
the set-up, installation, re-packaging and updating of software applications
(the "BUSINESS").

B. Seller desires to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser
desires to purchase from Seller, substantially all of the assets used in the
operation of the Business on the terms set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the
respective agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and conditions
contained in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the
parties agree as follows:

1. SALE AND PURCHASE OF PURCHASED ASSETS

1.1 ASSETS TO BE PURCHASED AND SOLD. Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing Seller agrees to sell, assign,
grant, transfer and deliver (or cause to be sold, assigned, granted, transferred
and delivered) to Purchaser, free and clear of all liens, claims, interests and
encumbrances (other than Permitted Liens), and Purchaser agrees to purchase from
Seller, all of Seller's rights, title and interest in and to substantially all
of Seller's assets other than the Excluded Assets (collectively, the "PURCHASED
ASSETS"), and Seller shall deliver good, clear and marketable (subject to any
contract assignment limitations) title to each and every Purchased Asset,
together with such bills of sale, assignments and other instruments of
conveyance as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser to permit such delivery.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Purchased Assets shall include the following
assets:

(a) All personal property and fixed assets listed on
SCHEDULE 1.1(A);

(b) All intellectual property rights associated with
the conduct of the Business listed on SCHEDULE 1.1(B), whether held by Seller as
owner or as licensee, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks,
patents, service marks, letters patent, licenses and any applications or
registrations thereof, income or royalties therefrom and infringement claims
related thereto, trade names, trade styles, trade secrets, know-how, processes,
formulae, computer source codes, programs and other software of Seller,
including all machine-readable code, printed listings of code, documentation and
related property and information of Seller, business and marketing plans,
worldwide marketing rights, all slogans used by Seller in the conduct of the
Business and all rights and licenses thereto and applications and registrations

therefor, including, but not limited to, the right to use Internet domain names
used, owned or licensed by Seller (the "INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ASSETS");

(c) All of Seller's rights in and to the contracts,
agreements, leases and other arrangements relating to the Business, Purchased
Assets and the Intellectual Property Assets (the "ASSIGNED CONTRACTS"),
including, but not limited to, those contracts, agreements, leases and other
arrangements listed on SCHEDULE 1.1(C), but excluding the contracts, agreements,
leases and other arrangements set out in SCHEDULE 1.2. To the extent that any
contract for which assignment to Purchaser is provided herein is not assignable
without the consent of another party, this Agreement shall not constitute an
assignment or an attempted assignment thereof if such assignment or attempted
assignment would constitute a breach thereof. Seller and Purchaser agree to use
their commercially reasonable efforts (without any requirement on the part of
Purchaser to pay any money or agree to any material change in the terms of any
such Assigned Contract) to obtain the consent of such other party to the
assignment of any such contract to Purchaser in all cases in which such consent
