Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 8, 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Marchex, Inc. amended the Marchex 2004 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) to provide that effective January 1, 2006 the purchase price of shares of Class B common stock available under the ESPP shall be equal to 95% of the closing price of the shares of Class B common stock on the last business day of each purchase period. The amendment was adopted in response to Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. Prior to the amendment, the purchase price of shares of Class B common stock available under the ESPP was equal to 85% of the closing price of the Class B common stock on (i) the first business day of such relevant purchase period, or (ii) the last business day of such relevant purchase period, whichever closing price shall be less. A copy of the ESPP as amended is attached to this current report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.15 and is incorporated by reference as though it were fully set forth herein. The foregoing summary description of the ESPP as amended is not intended to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the ESPP as amended.
