The name of the Issuer and the address of its principal executive offices are as follows:

San Jose, California 95134.
 
Item 2.    Identity and Background.
 
This Statement is being filed by Synopsys, Inc. (“Synopsys”). Synopsys is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, and the address of its principal offices and its principal business is 700 East Middlefield Road, Mountain View, California 94043. Synopsys’ principal business is the creation of electronic design automation (EDA) tools for the global electronics market.
 
Set forth on Schedule A hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference, is the (i) name, business address, (ii) present principal occupation or employment, and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted, and (iii) citizenship, of each of the directors and executive officers of Synopsys as of the date hereof.
 
During the last five years, neither Synopsys nor, to the knowledge of Synopsys, any person set forth on Schedule A hereto has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).
 
During the last five years, neither Synopsys nor, to the knowledge of Synopsys, any person set forth on Schedule A hereto has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of which such person is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
Item 3.    Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
As more fully described under Item 4 of this Statement, Synopsys is filing this Statement to report its beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer with respect to which Synopsys may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership by virtue of entering into Tender and Voting Agreements with certain stockholders of the Issuer. Synopsys did not pay any consideration to such stockholders in connection with the execution and delivery of the Tender and Voting Agreements described under Item 4 of this Statement.
 
Item 4.    Purpose of Transaction.
 
(a)  The Merger Agreement.    On July 23, 2002, Synopsys, Ferrite Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Synopsys (the “Purchaser”), and Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2(a) and incorporated herein by reference. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the Purchaser will make a cash tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Issuer (“Issuer Common Stock”) at a price of $4.05 per share (the “Offer Price”), net to the holders thereof in cash. Following the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement, (i) the Purchaser will be merged with and

-3-


 
into the Issuer (the “Merger”), (ii) the Issuer will be the surviving corporation and the separate corporate existence of the Purchaser will cease, (iii) each share of Issuer Common Stock that is not tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer (other than shares of Issuer Common Stock owned by Synopsys, the Purchaser, or the Issuer, or by any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Synopsys, or by those stockholders of Issuer, if any, who are entitled to and who properly exercise appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the Offer Price, and (iv) each share of common stock of the Purchaser that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will be converted into one share of common stock of the Issuer, which shares will constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Issuer following the Merger. The Offer, the Merger, and the other actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are subject to certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. The purpose of the Offer and the Merger is to enable Synopsys to acquire control of the Issuer by acquiring all of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock.
 
The Tender and Voting Agreements.    Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to the willingness of Synopsys and the Purchaser to enter into the Merger Agreement, each of the directors and executive officers of the Issuer (the “Issuer Directors and Officers”), and the Issuer’s majority stockholder, Phoenix Technologies Ltd. (“Phoenix” and together with the Issuer Directors and Officers, the “Principal Stockholders”), in their capacity as stockholders of the Issuer, entered into a Tender and Voting Agreement (collectively, the “Tender and Voting Agreements”) with Synopsys, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 3(a) and 3(b), respectively, and incorporated herein by reference. Pursuant to the Tender and Voting Agreements and as more fully described therein, the Principal Stockholders, among other things, (i) agreed to tender all of their shares of Issuer Common Stock (the “Subject Shares”) into the Offer, (ii) agreed to vote any of their Subject Shares not tendered into the Offer (A) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement, and in favor of each of the other actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (B) against approval of any proposal made in opposition to, or in competition with, consummation of the Offer, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (C) against any of the following actions (other than those actions that relate to the Offer, the Merger and any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement): (1) any merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of assets, reorganization or recapitalization of Issuer or any subsidiary of Issuer with any party, (2) any sale, lease or transfer of any significant part of the assets of Issuer or any subsidiary of Issuer, (3) any reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of Issuer or any subsidiary of Issuer, (4) any material change in the capitalization of Issuer or any subsidiary of Issuer, or the corporate structure of Issuer or any subsidiary of Issuer, or (5) any other action that is intended, or could reasonably be expected to, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the Offer, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iii) granted Synopsys an irrevocable proxy to vote all of their Subject Shares not tendered into the Offer as contemplated by clause (ii) of this paragraph, and (iv) subject their shares of Issuer Common Stock to certain restrictions on the transfer thereof. Synopsys did not pay any additional consideration to the Principal Stockholders in connection with the execution and delivery of the Tender and Voting Agreements. The purpose of the Tender and Voting Agreements is to enable Synopsys, the Purchaser and the Issuer to consummate the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
 
The Tender and Voting Agreements terminate upon the earlier to occur of: (i) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Article VIII thereof, (ii) such date and time as the Merger shall become effective in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement, or (iii) such date and time as any amendment or change to the Merger Agreement is effected without the consent of the Principal Stockholder that is a party thereto that (A) decreases the Offer Price, (B) extends the Termination Date (other than an extension of the Termination Date pursuant to the first proviso of Section 8.1(b) of the Merger Agreement), or (C) materially adversely affects the Stockholder (in the case of Phoenix) or adversely affects the Principal Stockholder that is party thereto in a manner that is not approved by the Issuer pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement (in the case of the Issuer Directors and Officers).

-4-


 
As a result of entering into the Tender and Voting Agreements and accepting the proxies granted thereunder, as of July 23, 2002, Synopsys may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 10,790,265 shares of Issuer Common Stock that were either owned by or issuable within 60 days of July 23, 2002 upon the exercise of options that were owned by the Principal Stockholders. Such shares of Issuer Common Stock represented approximately 69.5% of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock that were deemed to be outstanding as of July 19, 2002 for purposes of calculating the beneficial ownership of Synopsys under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, as certain options that are held by the Issuer Directors and Officers vest and become exercisable over time, Synopsys may be deemed to acquire beneficial ownership of additional shares of Issuer Common Stock that become issuable upon the exercise of such options. In the event that the options held by the Issuer Directors and Officers vest and become exercisable in full at any time during which the Tender and Voting Agreements remain in effect, Synopsys could be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 11,132,050 shares of Issuer Common Stock, representing approximately 70.2% of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock that would then be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of calculating the beneficial ownership of Synopsys under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
 
Synopsys is not entitled to any rights as a stockholder of the Issuer in respect of the shares of Issuer Common Stock subject to the Tender and Voting Agreements, and therefore, Synopsys disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of Issuer Common Stock.
 
The references to and descriptions of the Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreements contained herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements, which are attached hereto as Exhibits (2)(a), (3)(a), and (3)(b), respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
 
(b)  See the description set forth under Item 4(a) of this Statement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
 
(c)  Not applicable.
 
(d)  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon the initial acceptance for payment by the Purchaser of shares of Issuer Common Stock pursuant to the Offer, Synopsys is entitled to designate up to such number of directors on the Board of Directors of the Issuer equal to the product (rounded up to the next whole number) obtained by multiplying (x) the number of directors on the Board of Directors of the Issuer (giving effect to any increase in the number of directors provided for by the Merger Agreement), and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Issuer Common Stock held by Synopsys and the Purchaser (giving effect to the shares of Issuer Common Stock purchased pursuant to the Offer), and the denominator of which is the total number of then outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, promptly following a request by Synopsys, the Issuer has agreed to take all action necessary to cause the individuals so designated by Synopsys to be elected or appointed to the Board of Directors of the Issuer, including (at the election of Synopsys) either by increasing the size of the Board of Directors of Synopsys or by seeking and accepting or otherwise securing the resignations of such number of then incumbent directors as is necessary to enable the individuals so designated by Synopsys to be elected or appointed to the Board of Directors of Synopsys.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger, (i) the directors of the Issuer will be the directors of the Purchaser immediately prior to the Merger, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified, and (ii) the officers of the Issuer will be the officers of the Purchaser immediately prior to the Merger, until their respective successors are duly appointed.

-5-


 
(e)  Other than as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreements, as more fully described under Item 4(a) of this Statement, not applicable.
 
(f)  Following completion of the Offer and the Merger, Synopsys intends to integrate the Issuer’s business and operations with those of Synopsys under the direction of Synopsys’ management.
 
(g)  Upon consummation of the Merger, and subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer will be amended and restated in its entirety to read identically to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Purchaser, as in effect immediately prior to Merger, and such amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation will become the Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer until thereafter amended in accordance with the applicable provisions of Delaware Law and such Certificate of Incorporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the consummation of the Merger, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer will be amended so that the name of the Issuer shall be “inSilicon Corporation.”
 
Upon consummation of the Merger, and subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Bylaws of the Purchaser, as in effect immediately prior to the Merger, will become the Bylaws of the Issuer until thereafter amended in accordance with the applicable provisions of Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Issuer and such Bylaws.
 
(h)  The Issuer’s stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market upon the consummation of the Merger or shortly thereafter.
 
(i)  If the Merger is consummated as planned, the Issuer Common Stock will become eligible for termination pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act.
 
(j)  Other than as described in this Item 4, Synopsys currently has no plans or proposals which relate to, or may result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)–(i) of Schedule 13D. However, Synopsys intends to continue to review the Issuer and its assets, corporate structure, dividend policy, capitalization, operations, properties, policies, management and personnel, and to further consider, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, whether any changes would be desirable in light of the circumstances then existing, and reserves the right to take such actions or effect such changes as it deems desirable.
 
Item 5.    Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
(a)  See the description set forth under Item 4(a) of this Statement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
 
(b)  Synopsys may be deemed to share with the signatories of the Tender and Voting Agreements the power to vote the shares of Issuer Common Stock subject thereto solely with respect to those matters described in Item 4 of this Statement and in the Tender and Voting Agreements, which are incorporated herein by reference.
 
Synopsys may be deemed to share with the signatories of the Tender and Voting Agreements the power to dispose of the shares of Issuer Common Stock subject thereto solely to the extent that the Tender and Voting Agreements restrict the ability of the Principal Stockholders to transfer the shares of Issuer Common Stock subject thereto, as more fully described in Item 4 of this Statement and in the Tender and Voting Agreements, which are incorporated herein by reference.
 
However, Synopsys is not entitled to any rights as a stockholder of the Issuer in respect of the shares of Issuer Common Stock subject to the Tender and Voting Agreements, and therefore, Synopsys disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of Issuer Common Stock.

-6-


 
To the knowledge of Synopsys, none of the persons set forth on Schedule A hereto beneficially own any shares of Issuer Common Stock.
 
(c)  To the knowledge of Synopsys, no transactions in shares of Issuer Common Stock have been effected during the past 60 days by either Synopsys or any person set forth on Schedule A hereto.
 
(d)  To the knowledge of Synopsys, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, shares of Issuer Common Stock.
 
(e)  Not applicable.
 
Item 6.    Contracts, Arrangements, Understanding or Relationships with Respect to Securities of Issuer.
 
Other than as described under Item 4 of this Statement, to the knowledge of Synopsys, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among Synopsys and any person set forth on Schedule A hereto, and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
