*Section 1 — Registrant’s Business and Operations*

*Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.*

In July 2005, Forgent Networks, Inc. ( the “Registrant”) initiated litigation against 15 companies for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,285,746 (the “ ‘746 patent”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the “ ‘746 Litigation”), seeking injunctive relief against sales of infringing products and monetary damages, among other relief sought. The ‘746 Litigation is described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Part I, Item 2, and Part II, Item 1 of the Registrant’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 30, 2007.

Effective June 25, 2007, the Registrant has entered into a Settlement and License Agreement (the “Agreement”) with one of the defendants in the ‘746 Litigation: DIRECTV, Inc. (“DIRECTV”). The Agreement represents the final definitive agreement contemplated by the parties when they reached an agreement in principle to settle the ‘746 Litigation effective May 13, 2007. Such agreement in principle was originally disclosed in the Registrant’s Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2007. Under the Agreement, the Registrant granted DIRECTV a patent license and DIRECTV agreed to pay the Registrant a total of $8.0 million. Additionally, all parties agreed to release all claims against each other.

Pursuant to Instruction B.4 to Form 8-K and applicable regulations and releases, a copy of the Agreement reported under Item 1.01 will be filed as an exhibit not later than the Registrant’s annual report on Form 10-K applicable to the fiscal year ending July 31, 2007. All summaries and descriptions of documents set forth above are qualified in their entirety by the documents themselves, filed as an exhibit or exhibits to a later report.
