Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

On June 27, 2011, VeriSign, Inc. (“VeriSign” or the “Company”) entered into a Registry Agreement for the .net top-level domain (the “Renewal Agreement”) with Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”), pursuant to which the Company will continue to serve as the authoritative registry operator for the .net registry. The Renewal Agreement renews the .net Registry Agreement entered into by the Company and ICANN in 2005 (the “existing agreement”) on substantially the same terms through June 30, 2017.

The Renewal Agreement provides that the Company will continue as the exclusive registry of domain names within the .net generic top-level domain through June 30, 2017. The Renewal Agreement provides that it shall be renewed for later terms unless it has been finally determined by an arbitrator or court that the Company has failed to cure a fundamental and material breach of certain provisions of the Renewal Agreement and, following the decision of such arbitrator or court, the Company fails to comply with such decision. The Renewal Agreement maintains the current service levels and pricing provisions for .net domain name registrations and allows the Company to increase the price of a .net domain registration by up to ten percent in each calendar year during the term of the Renewal Agreement; provided that the Company gives six months prior notice of any price increase. The Company is required to collect a $0.75 fee on ICANN’s behalf for each .net domain registration and may also be required to collect variable registry fees on ICANN’s behalf in fiscal quarters in which ICANN does not collect a variable accreditation fee from all registrars.

As in the existing agreement, the Renewal Agreement provides that the Company may not acquire, directly or indirectly, a greater than fifteen percent ownership interest in any ICANN-accredited registrar. The Company is also required to comply with and implement temporary specifications or policies and consensus policies, as well as other provisions in the Renewal Agreement relating to handling of data and other registry operations. The Renewal Agreement also continues restrictions on ICANN’s ability to adopt temporary specifications or policies and consensus policies that can impact the operation of the .net registry and existing processes for the introduction by VeriSign of new registry services.

The Company and ICANN are also parties to the Registry Agreement for the .com top-level domain, effective March 1, 2006, pursuant to which the Company serves as the exclusive registry of domain names within the .com top-level domain.
