                             INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

         This Amendment No. 2 amends the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO
filed by Virage, Inc. (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") on January 7, 2002, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by the Company with the SEC on
January 24, 2002, (the "Schedule TO"), relating to an offer by the Company to
exchange certain outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company's common
stock held by eligible employees and eligible executive officers of the Company
for new options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, as set forth
in the Schedule TO and this Amendment No. 2. This exchange offer will occur upon
the terms and subject to the conditions described in (1) the Offer to Exchange
filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO, (2) the Memorandum from Alfred J.
Castino, dated January 7, 2002 and filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule
TO, (3) the Election Form filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(C) to the Schedule TO, (4) the
Notice to Withdraw from the Offer filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(D) to the Schedule TO
and (5) the form of Promise to Grant Stock Option(s) filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(E)
to the Schedule TO.

         This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule TO as follows:

(1)      The last bullet point in Section 7 of the Offer to Exchange is amended
         and restated as follows:

         -        any material and adverse change or changes shall have occurred
                  in Virage's business, condition, assets, income, operations,
                  prospects or stock ownership that, in our reasonable judgment,
                  will materially impair the contemplated benefits of the offer
                  to Virage.
