Company description: DIVA is a full-service organization which provides cable operators with seamless integration of a complete video-on-demand solution including headend hardware and software, billing interface, digital broadcast interoperability, bandwidth efficiency, marketing, cable system training, a wide range of compelling programming, 24-hour/7-day support, and a user-friendly on-screen navigator.

DIVA commercially launched its digital video-on-demand entertainment network over cable television systems in the Fall of 1997 and is now deployed in five U.S. cable systems. DIVA's on demand TV gives customers instant access to hundreds of the latest Hollywood movies, classic "library" titles, and an outstanding package of children's and family programming at any time. Additionally, the service offers fast-forward, pause, and rewind functionality.

DIVA has entered into licensing arrangements with major movie studios and other programmers covering more than 3,000 titles. Among the studios and cable networks that license movies and other content to DIVA are Warner Bros., Disney, Sony, Tri-Star, Universal Pictures, Dreamworks, Twentieth Century Fox, ESPN, Bravo, Playboy TV and HBO. For its initial deployments, DIVA receives new movie releases in the same window as DBS and pay-per-view services.

DIVA Systems Corporation (www.divatv.com) is a privately held company founded in June 1995 and is headquartered in the heart of California's "Silicon Valley" on the campus of SRI International (formerly the Stanford Research Institute), in Menlo Park.
