                               Services Agreement

THIS SERVICES AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of
February 15, 2002 (the "Effective Date"), by and between TiVo Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("TiVo"), and DIRECTV, Inc., a California corporation ("DIRECTV").

                                    Recitals

     Whereas, TiVo has developed and commercially launched a stand alone set-top
receiver (the "Stand Alone Receiver") that allows consumers to receive the
personalized television services provided by TiVo;

     Whereas, the parties have developed and commercially launched a
DIRECTV-TiVo combination receiver referred to as the "Reno Receiver", and have
entered into a Development Agreement dated February 15, 2002 (the "Development
Agreement") relating to the development, production and marketing of another
DIRECTV-TiVo combination receiver referred to as the "Provo Receiver" and, at
DIRECTV's option, a third DIRECTV-TiVo combination receiver referred to as the
"Two-Chip Receiver" (the Reno Receiver, Provo Receiver and Two-Chip Receivers
are collectively referred to herein as the "DIRECTV DVR Receivers"); and

     Whereas, the parties mutually desire that TiVo license the i-Preview Tools
and the TiVoVision Tools to DIRECTV for use in conjunction with the DIRECTV
Service, as well as provide certain value-added services to DIRECTV.

     Now, Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants,
promises and undertakings set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree
as follows:

                                    Agreement

1. DEFINITIONS. The capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the following
meaning:

     1.1 "Authoring Tools" shall be the tools set forth in Exhibit A.

     1.2 "i-Preview" shall mean the software functionality that utilizes tags
inserted into line 21 of the Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) of broadcast and
cable television video signals to enable viewers to request recording and
storage of specified video streams for promotional and advertising purposes.
Promotional spots that contain i-Preview tags enable viewers to schedule
recordings of upcoming programs or link to promotional content stored on the
hard disk of a TiVo Receiver.

     1.3 "Shared Revenue" shall mean any revenue generated by TiVo under this
Agreement that is attributable to DIRECTV DVR Receivers. In cases where TiVo
receives aggregate revenues across DIRECTV DVR Receivers and TiVo Stand Alone
Receivers, Shared Revenue shall be measured by multiplying all revenue generated
by TiVo's use of iPreview, TiVoVision and User Data by the ratio of active
DIRECTV DVR Receivers to active TiVo Receivers.

     1.4 "TiVo Receiver" shall mean the Standalone Receiver of the DIRECTV DVR
Receiver.

     1.5 "TiVoVision" shall mean the software functionality that enables the
delivery, recording, parsing (on a near-frame accurate basis) and playback of
full resolution MPEG-2 video clips. Such video content may be accessed through
various places in the user interface, such as Showcases, or via user responses
to i-Preview tags. The two (2) primary uses of TiVoVision currently anticipated
on the Stand Alone Receiver and the DIRECTV DVR Receivers are: (i) to create
advertising and promotion opportunities using video stored on the hard disk and
(ii) to deliver content to the hard disk such as subscription or push video.
TiVoVision also includes text based Showcases as currently implemented on the
TiVo Receivers.

TiVo Service subscribers to DIRECTV pursuant to the Development Agreement,
DIRECTV shall own and control all future customer data received, derived or
otherwise collected from the DIRECTV DVR Receivers (the "User Data").
Notwithstanding the foregoing, TiVo shall have the right to use such User Data
in accordance with this Section 3 (User Data). At DIRECTV's sole discretion,
DIRECTV may elect to either: (i) provide such User Data to TiVo, provided, that
in such event, DIRECTV shall provide the User Data in a form and manner
reasonably specified by TiVo and agreed to by DIRECTV, with such agreement not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (ii) allow TiVo to collect User Data
directly from the DIRECTV DVR Receivers. In either case, TiVo [*]its receipt or

such video content to the hard disk. [*]any revenue actually received by DIRECTV
resulting from DIRECTV's Pre-Recorded Content Use[*].

     5.4 TiVo's Use of Pre-Recorded Content Capability. Except for the rights of
DIRECTV set forth in Section 5.3 (DIRECTV's Exclusive Use of Pre-Recorded
Content Capability) above, TiVo shall be permitted to insert subscriber

(herein, "TiVo's Pre-Recorded Content Use"), provided such use [*]video capacity

Pre-Recorded Content Use on Provo and Two-Chip Receivers[*].

6. Other Considerations.

     6.1  Fees; Technical Support.

          (a) Fees. At any time during the Term (as defined in Section 12.1
(Term)), DIRECTV may elect to exercise the license rights set forth in Section
2.1 (License Grants) and receive the related services from TiVo as described in
Section 6.1(c) (Technical Support). In such event, DIRECTV shall notify TiVo of
its election in writing, and shall pay to TiVo [*]for use of the Authoring Tools
(and receipt of the related services) for one (1) year (the "Initial Period")
except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1(b) (License Renewal; Prorated
Fees)). Upon receipt of such fee from DIRECTV, TiVo shall deliver the Authoring
Tools to DIRECTV in a form reasonably requested by DIRECTV.

          (b) License Renewal; Prorated Fees. For so long as the Development
Agreement is in effect, DIRECTV shall have the option to renew the license in
Section 2.1 on an annual basis for up to [*] additional years following the
Initial Period (each, a "Renewal Period"), by paying to TiVo an annual renewal
fee of[*]. The parties acknowledge and agree that the licenses granted in this
Agreement, and TiVo's obligation to provide the services described herein, will
immediately terminate upon the expiration or early termination of the
Development Agreement for any reason, except in the event of a termination by
DIRECTV due to a TiVo breach. Accordingly, if the anticipated expiration date of
the Development Agreement and the anticipated expiration date of the Initial
Period or any Renewal Period do not coincide, DIRECTV's fee payable for the
applicable period will be prorated on a monthly basis. For the avoidance of
doubt, in no event will Sections 2.3(c), 2.3(d) and TiVo's rights to use the
User Data set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3(a) survive the initial 3 year
term set forth in Section 12.1 unless the parties have agreed to extend it as
provided for therein.

          (c) Technical Support. In the event DIRECTV makes the fee payments
made in Section 6.1(a) or (b), (a) TiVo agrees to provide to DIRECTV
commercially reasonable training, technical assistance and, if applicable, use
of TiVo's server infrastructure in the use of the Authoring Tools by DIRECTV in
accordance with this Agreement, and (b) TiVo shall provide upgrades to the
Authoring Tools which TiVo creates, if any, during the Term.

     6.2 Technical Support by TiVo for DIRECTV's Use of User Data. At DIRECTV's
option, TiVo agrees to provide to DIRECTV commercially reasonable training,
technical assistance and use of TiVo's data collection and reports,
infrastructure and tools in accessing User Data. Such support and access shall
be provided by TiVo upon payment by DIRECTV to TiVo of an additional fee of
[*]per year, which [*] is subject to set-off for revenues shared by DIRECTV with
TiVo in accordance with Section 3.3 (DIRECTV Sale of User Data to Third
Parties). By way of example, if in a given year DIRECTV received revenues of
[*]resulting from the sale of User Data ([*]of which would be payable to TiVo in
accordance with Section 3.3 (DIRECTV Sale of User Data to Third Parties)),
DIRECTV's fee payment for that year would be[*].

     6.3 DIRECTV Editorial Review Rights. DIRECTV shall have the right to
reasonably review and approve the factual accuracy and the creative content
generated by TiVo or any third party providing content to TiVo for use under
this Agreement, when such content refers or relates to DIRECTV, the DIRECTV
Service, or is distributed to the DIRECTV DVR Receivers (including but not
limited to Showcases, TiVolution Magazine and pre-recorded promotional video on
the hard disk drive) (collectively, the "Content"). All Content shall comply
with applicable Laws and comport with reasonable standards of good taste
(consistent with the broadcast standards utilized by major broadcast television
networks), including without limitation, those relating to advertisements of
X-rated material, drug-related paraphernalia, cigarettes and liquor. DIRECTV and
TiVo will cooperate to establish mutually agreeable editorial review procedures
so as to enable TiVo's i-Preview Use and TiVo's TiVoVision Use as contemplated
by this Agreement.

     6.4 User-Interface Modifications and Control. DIRECTV shall have the sole
control over modifications to the user interface in the application of the
TiVoVision functionality on the DIRECTV DVR Receivers for DIRECTV TiVoVision
Use, and TiVo agrees to implement and manage such user interface modifications
at TiVo's then-current rates for such services; provided that, prior to DIRECTV
exercising its license option pursuant to Section 4.6 (Technology License) of
the Development Agreement, any such modification does not require an upgrade to
the then-current software version on any of the DIRECTV DVR Receivers. The user
interface presentation for the TiVoVision functionality on the DIRECTV DVR
Receivers for TiVo's TiVoVision Use shall be substantially similar in nature and
quality as that of DIRECTV use for similar content.

thereof and the Receiving Party obtains prior to any such disclosure a
protective order or other appropriate remedy. The Receiving Party will use the
same degree of care to prevent such misuse or disclosure that the Receiving
Party uses with respect to its own proprietary information, but in no event with
less than with reasonable care. Disclosure of Confidential Information does not
constitute a license with respect to such Confidential Information.

     9.3 Disclosure Restrictions. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential
Information only to its employees, consultants and contractors when such
disclosure is necessary for the Receiving Party to exercise its rights in
compliance with, and only for purposes contemplated by, this Agreement, provided
such employees, consultants and contractors are advised of the confidential
nature thereof and bound by nondisclosure obligations and restrictions no less
restrictive than those set forth in this Section 9 (Confidentiality).

10.  Indemnification.

     10.1 TiVo Indemnification Obligation.

          (a) Indemnity. TiVo, at its own expense, shall (i) defend, or at its
option, settle, any claims, suits, and actions brought by a third party
(collectively "Claims") against DIRECTV and its affiliated companies and their
respective employees, officers, agents, attorneys, stockholders and directors,
and their respective successors and assigns (the "DIRECTV Indemnified
Party(ies)") based on (1) allegations that the Content and/or Authoring Tools
(in the form initially provided to DIRECTV) infringes any patent, copyright,
moral rights or trademark, or misappropriates any trade secret issued or in
effect in United States or (2) allegations that any use by TiVo or use expressly
authorized by TiVo of the User Data violates any Law or the DIRECTV Privacy
Policy or the other restrictions set forth herein, except, to the extent caused
by DIRECTV in the case of violations of the Privacy Policy, or (3) allegations
that any Content violates any Law; and (ii) pay any award, damages, or costs
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) as incurred or
finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed on in a
settlement of any such Claim; provided that DIRECTV: (A) promptly notifies TiVo,
in writing, of all such Claims; (B) cooperates reasonably with TiVo (at TiVo's
expense) in defending such Claims; and (C) allows TiVo the primary right to
control the defense (including the selection of counsel), or at TiVo's sole
option, to settle, all such Claims; provided such settlement provides a full
unconditional release of DIRECTV and does not impose any liability on DIRECTV.
At its discretion, DIRECTV shall be entitled to jointly participate in

                                       10

<PAGE>

the defense of such Claim with counsel of its own selection and DIRECTV shall be
obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such counsel of its own selection.

          (b) Mitigation. If TiVo receives written notice of an alleged
infringement or believes that a Claim of infringement is likely, or if DIRECTV's
use of the Authoring Tools is prevented by a permanent injunction, TiVo may, at
its sole option and expense, (i) procure for DIRECTV the right to continue use
of the Authoring Tools at TiVo's sole expense; (ii) modify the Authoring Tools;
or (iii) replace the infringing portion of the Authoring Tools with technology
that does not infringe, provided that, in the case of subsections (ii) and
(iii), the modified and/or replaced technology contains substantially similar
functionality and otherwise complies with the requirements of this Agreement
(the "Replacement Technology").

          (c) Exceptions. TiVo shall have no liability for any such Claims based
on (i) any use of the Authoring Tools in combination with products, services or
technology not required by TiVo or not otherwise required to use the Authoring
Tools in a standalone form, if such infringement would not occur except for such
combination; or ( ii) any use of an infringing version of the Authoring Tools
once a non-infringing version of Replacement Technology has been made available
to DIRECTV.

          (d) Entire Obligation. The foregoing states TiVo's entire liability
and DIRECTV's sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any infringement by the
Authoring Tools of any patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other
proprietary rights of any third party whether direct or contributory.

     10.2 DIRECTV Indemnity.

          (a) Indemnity. DIRECTV, at its own expense, shall (i) defend, or at
its option, settle, any claims, suits, and actions brought by a third party
(collectively "Claims") against TiVo and its affiliated companies and their
respective employees, officers, agents, attorneys, stockholders and directors,
and their respective successors and assigns (the "TiVo Indemnified Party(ies)")
based on allegations that (1) any use by DIRECTV or use expressly authorized by
DIRECTV of the Authoring Tools, violates any Law, other than Claims for which
TiVo is obligated to defend DIRECTV pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(i)(1), or (2)
allegations that any use by DIRECTV or use expressly authorized by DIRECTV of
the User Data violates any Law or the DIRECTV Privacy Policy or the other
restrictions set forth herein, except, to the extent caused by TiVo in the case
of violations of the Privacy Policy; and (ii) pay any award, damages, or costs
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) as incurred or
finally awarded in a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed on in a
settlement of any such Claim; provided that TiVo (A) promptly notifies DIRECTV,
in writing, of all such Claims; (B) cooperates reasonably with DIRECTV (at
DIRECTV's expense) in defending such Claims; and (C) allows DIRECTV the primary
right to control the defense (including the selection of counsel), or at
DIRECTV's sole option, to settle, all such Claims; provided such settlement
provides a full unconditional release of TiVo and does not impose any liability
on TiVo. At its discretion, TiVo shall be entitled to jointly participate in the
defense of such Claim with counsel of its own selection and TiVo shall be
obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such counsel of its own selection.

                                       11

<PAGE>

          (b) Exceptions. DIRECTV shall have no liability for any such Claims
based on (i) a combination of the Authoring Tools with the DIRECTV DVR Receiver;
or (ii) the TiVo Authoring Tools.

11. Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT IN THE EVENT OF A BREACH OF THE LICENSE
GRANTED IN SECTION 2 (LICENSE GRANTS; COMMERCIAL USE), A KNOWING OR GROSSLY
NEGLIGENT BREACH OF THE RESTRICTIONS HEREIN ON THE USE OF USER DATA, UNDER LAWS
AND DIRECTV PRIVACY POLICY, , OOR A BREACH OF SECTION 9 (CONFIDENTIALITY) AND
EXCEPT FOR THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 10
(INDEMNIFICATION), IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT

EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY
NATURE WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS, OTHER
COMMERCIAL LOSS, OR COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE TECHNOLOGY OR SERVICES),
ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF ANY EXCLUSIVE REMEDY
STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT IS DEEMED TO FAIL OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. EXCEPT IN
THE EVENT OF A BREACH OF THE LICENSES GRANTED IN SECTION 2 (LICENSE GRANTS;
COMMERCIAL USE), A KNOWING OR GROSSLY NEGLIGENT BREACH OF THE RESTRICTIONS
HEREIN ON THE USE OF USER DATA, UNDER LAWS AND DIRECTV PRIVACY POLICY, , OOR A
BREACH OF SECTION 9 (CONFIDENTIALITY) AND EXCEPT FOR THE INDEMNIFICATION

PARTY'S CUMULATIVE LIABILITY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED
AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF ALL FEES PAID BY, OR DUE FROM,
DIRECTV TO TIVO HEREUNDER. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS CUMULATIVE, WITH ALL
PAYMENTS FOR CLAIMS IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT BEING AGGREGATED TO
DETERMINE SATISFACTION OF THE LIMIT. THE EXISTENCE OF ONE OR MORE CLAIMS UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT ENLARGE THE LIMIT.

12.  Term and Termination.

     12.1 Term. The term (the "Term") of this Agreement shall begin on the
Effective Date and continue for a period of three (3) years, unless sooner
terminated pursuant to this Section 12 (Term and Termination). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, prior to the expiration of the Term, DIRECTV and TiVo agree to
negotiate in good faith regarding an extension of the Term for a maximum two (2)
additional years.

     12.2 Termination.

          (a) For Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other
party materially breaches this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within
sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice thereof from the non-breaching
party.

<PAGE>

          (b) Termination or Expiration of Development Agreement. This Agreement
will immediately terminate upon the expiration or early termination of the
Development Agreement, except in the event of a termination by DIRECTV due to a
TiVo breach.

     12.3 Survival. Sections 1 (Definitions); 2.5 (Reservation of Rights;
Ownership); 3 (User Data) (but only as related to DIRECTV's ownership and
control of the User Data); 5.1 (Existing Marketing Agreement); 5.2 (TiVo's Use
of Network Showcases and TiVolution Magazine); 7 (Representations and Warranties
of TiVo); 8 (Representations and Warranties of DIRECTV); 9 (Confidentiality); 10
(Indemnification); 11 (Limitation of Liability); 12.3 (Survival); 12.4 (No
Liability for Termination); and 13 (Miscellaneous) shall survive the termination
or expiration of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided DIRECTV
has exercised the option in Section 6.1(b) and this Agreement is not terminated
by TiVo for DIRECTV's material breach, DIRECTV shall continue to have the rights
set forth in Section 6.1(b) subject to all rights and restrictions set forth
herein.

     12.4 No Liability for Termination. Each party understands that the rights
of termination hereunder are absolute. The terminating party shall not incur any
liability whatsoever for any damage, loss or expenses of any kind suffered or
incurred by the other arising from or incident to the terminating party's
exercise of its termination rights under this Agreement. In particular, without
limiting the foregoing, the terminated party shall not be entitled to any
damages on account of prospective profits or anticipated sales related to such
exercise of termination rights.

13. Miscellaneous.

     13.1 No Agency. Each party will in all matters relating to this Agreement
act as an independent contractor. Nothing contained in this Agreement, nor the
execution or performance thereof, shall be construed as creating any agency,
partnership, or other form of joint enterprise between the parties. Neither
party will have authority nor represent that it has any authority to assume or
create any obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other party, or to
represent the other party as agent, employee or in any other capacity.

     13.2 Taxes. All payments made by each party hereunder shall be paid without
deduction for and net of any sales, use, excise, import or export, value-added
or similar tax or duty, government permit or license fees, customs and similar
fees, penalties and interest and any costs associated with the collection or
withholding of any of the foregoing (except for taxes based on the receiving
party's net income) (collectively, "Taxes"). If any deduction is legally
required on any fees payable by one party to the other party hereunder, the
party making such payment shall pay in the manner and at the same time such
additional amounts as will result in the receiving party receiving the amounts
such party would have received absent such required deduction. The paying party
shall promptly pay or reimburse all federal, state, and local Taxes, if any,
due, arising from, or measured by amounts payable to the receiving party under
this Agreement.

or otherwise amended except pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by each
of the parties hereto.

     13.4 Successors; Assigns. All the terms of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and shall inure to the benefit of the permitted successors and assigns of
the respective parties hereto. Anything contained herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, neither party may assign this Agreement without the written
consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, following written notice to the other party,
either party may transfer and assign this Agreement, by operation of law or
otherwise, to the surviving entity in the event of a sale to, merger with, or
acquisition of all or substantially all of such party's assets by such entity,
and the other party hereby consents to such assignment in advance.

     13.5 Governing Law. This Agreement and all matters or issues related hereto
or arising hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of California,
without regard to principles of conflicts of law, as such laws would apply to
contracts entered into by California residents and performed entirely in
California. The parties agree that all disputes and litigation regarding this
Agreement and matters connected with its performance shall be brought in a
federal court in the Northern District or Central District of California or in
state court in Los Angeles County or Santa Clara County, California, and each
party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction and venue of any such court in any
such action or proceeding.

     13.6 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement
are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or
interpreting this Agreement.

     13.8 Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable hereunder by reason of
any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder (except for
payments of money) on account of strikes (other than strikes of a party's own
employees), shortages, riots, insurrection, fires, flood, storm, explosions,
acts of God, war, governmental action, labor conditions (other than with respect
to a party's own employees), earthquakes, material shortages or any other causes
that are beyond the reasonable control of such party; provided, however, that
the parties will use commercially reasonable efforts, including the
implementation of business continuity measures, to mitigate the effects of such
force majeure.

     13.9 Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. All rights and licenses granted
under or pursuant to this Agreement by TiVo to DIRECTV are, and shall otherwise
be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy
Code, licenses of rights to "intellectual property" as defined under Section
101(56) of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that DIRECTV, as
licensee of such rights and licenses, shall retain and may fully exercise all of
its rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code, provided that DIRECTV abides
by the terms of this Agreement.

     13.10 Injunctive Relief. It is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, any breach of Section 9 (Confidentiality)
or the licenses granted in Section 2 (License Grants; Commercial Use) and any
restrictions related thereto will cause irreparable damage for which recovery of
money damages would be inadequate, and that both parties shall therefore be
entitled to obtain timely injunctive relief to protect their respective rights
under this Agreement, in addition to any and all remedies available at law.

     13.11 Export Controls. Each party agrees that it will comply with all U.S.
export control laws and the applicable regulations thereunder, as well as any
other applicable laws of the U.S. affecting the export of technology.

     13.12 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to
be unenforceable under applicable law, portions of such provisions, or such
provisions in their entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from
this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such
provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its
terms.

     13.13 Counterparts. The Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of
which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one
agreement.

     13.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any exhibits and

specifically set forth herein.
