</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award or a corporation&#146;s
board of directors to grant indemnification to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad
to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement
for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (&#147;1933 Act&#148;). The Registrant&#146;s
Certificate of Incorporation provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, its directors shall not be
liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors to the Registrant and
its stockholders. This provision in the Certificate of Incorporation does not eliminate the
fiduciary duty of the directors, and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as
injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In
addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director&#146;s duty
of loyalty to the Registrant for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional
misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the
director and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are
unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director&#146;s responsibilities under
any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws. The
Registrant has entered into Indemnification Agreements with its officers and directors. The
Indemnification Agreements provide the Registrant&#146;s officers and directors with further
indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1)&nbsp;To file, during any period in which offers or
sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement (i)&nbsp;to include any
prospectus required by Section&nbsp;10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, (ii)&nbsp;to reflect in the prospectus any
facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement and (iii)&nbsp;to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall not apply if the information required to
be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports
filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section&nbsp;13 or Section 15(d) of the
1934 Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement; (2)&nbsp;That for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof; and (3)&nbsp;To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the Registrant&#146;s Amended and
Restated 1998 Equity Incentive Plan and 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant&#146;s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to
directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification
by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3.
Incorporation of Documents by Reference
Actuate Corporation (the "Registrant") hereby incorporates by reference into this Registration
Statement the following documents previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC"):
(a)
The Registrant's Registration Statement No. 000-24607
on Form 8-A filed with the SEC on July 10, 1998
pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") in which there
is described the terms, rights and provisions
applicable to the Registrant's outstanding Common
Stock;
(b)
The Registrant's Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the SEC on March 10, 2010;
(c)
The Registrant's Form 10-Q filed with the SEC for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on May 7, 2010; and
(d)
The Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 28, 2010, February 2, 2010, May 28, 2010 and June 18, 2010.
All reports and definitive proxy or information statements filed pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c),
14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act after the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing
of a post-effective amendment which indicate that all securities offered hereby have been sold or
which de-registers all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by
reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such
documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration
Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed document
which also is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.
Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or
superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 4.
Description of Securities
Not Applicable.
Item 5.
Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not Applicable.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award or a corporation's
board of directors to grant indemnification to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad
to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement
for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act"). The Registrant's
Certificate of Incorporation provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, its directors shall not be
liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors to the Registrant and
its stockholders. This provision in the Certificate of Incorporation does not eliminate the
fiduciary duty of the directors, and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as
injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In
addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to the Registrant for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional
misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the
director and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are
unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director's responsibilities under
any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws. The
Registrant has entered into Indemnification Agreements with its officers and directors. The
Indemnification Agreements provide the Registrant's officers and directors with further
indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Undertakings
A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or
sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement (i) to include any
prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any
facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement and (iii) to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall not apply if the information required to
be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports
filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
1934 Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement; (2) That for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof; and (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the Registrant's Amended and
Restated 1998 Equity Incentive Plan and 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to
directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification
by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
II-2

S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
