EXPLANATORY NOTE

On February 19, 2010, Digital River, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in order to report that the Company’s prior financial statement on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2009 should no longer be relied upon. There are no other changes to the information contained in the Original Form 8-K.

Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

On February 19, 2010, the management of Digital River, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Digital River” or “Company”) concluded, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors concurred, that the previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements of Digital River covering the period ended March 31, 2009 contain an incorrect accounting entry. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should no longer be relied upon because of such error.

In performing the annual review of the financial statements, management identified that it had incorrectly recorded the write-off of unamortized debt financing costs related to the repurchase of convertible notes on January 2, 2009. After the Company announced preliminary full year financial results on January 28, 2010, management determined that a $5.2 million non-cash expense for debt financing costs ($3.3 million net of tax) was incorrectly charged to additional paid-in capital and should have been expensed to other non-operating expense. Year-to-date results for all subsequent periods should have also reflected this non-operating expense.

As noted in Item 7 and Item 8 of the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 23, 2010, the Company revised the unaudited results it previously released on January 28, 2010. The impact of this change was a reduction in both the first quarter and the full year GAAP earnings of $3.3 million after tax, or $0.09 per diluted share. The first quarter 2009 GAAP earnings were revised to $13.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. The full year 2009 GAAP earnings were reduced to $49.8 million, or $1.32 per diluted share. There was no change to previously released non-GAAP earnings.

An unaudited table presenting the effects of the revisions to the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 is set forth below:
