Employment Agreement between Jack Greenburg and Motive Inc.



 Exhibit 10.2 
 

 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 This Employment Agreement (this “Agreement’) is entered into this 27th day of September 2007 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Jack Greenberg
(“Employee”), an individual, and Motive, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Motive”). In consideration of the mutual promises expressed herein, Employee and Motive have agreed to the
following terms and conditions. 
 1. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM. This Agreement
will be effective as of the Effective Date, and will remain in effect for a term of one year, unless earlier terminated in accordance with Section 4 or Section 5. Continued employment beyond the one-year term of this Agreement will not
result in automatic renewal of this Agreement. Rather, to renew this Agreement, Motive and Employee must state their intention to renew this Agreement in writing signed by both Motive and Employee. 
 2. DUTIES. Motive agrees to employ Employee as its General Counsel and Secretary or in such other capacity as Motive may require. Employee
agrees to continue to work for Motive as its General Counsel and Secretary or in such other capacity as Motive may require and to perform the duties normally associated with that position and such other duties as Motive may assign to Employee.
Employee agrees that Employee will abide by all of Motive’s policies, procedures, and directives as may be adopted, modified, or issued by Motive from time to time. 
 3. COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS. While Employee is actively employed by Motive pursuant to this Agreement, Employee will be entitled to the following compensation and
benefits: 
 (a) Base Salary. Motive will pay Employee a Base Salary (“Base Salary”) at a monthly rate of
$18,750.00 ($225,000 annually), less applicable withholdings and deductions. Employee’s Base Salary shall be subject to review and potential adjustment, as determined by Motive. Base Salary shall not include any payment or other benefit which
is denominated as or is in the nature of a bonus, incentive payment, profit-sharing payment, retirement or pension accrual, insurance benefit, other fringe benefit or expense allowance, whether or not taxable to Employee as income. The term Base
Salary shall include any increase therein for the purposes of this agreement. 
 (b) Vacation. Employee shall accrue vacation
commensurate with Employee’s position. The accrual and carry-over (if any) of Employee’s vacation shall be in accordance with Motive’s regular vacation accrual practices, as such practices are adopted, modified, or implemented from
time to time. 
 (c) Benefits. Subject to applicable eligibility requirements, Employee shall be invited to participate in the same
benefit plans or fringe benefit policies that are generally available to any of its senior level executive employees. 
 (d) Bonuses.
Employee shall be eligible to receive an annual Target Bonus of up to $112,500 less applicable withholdings and deductions (the “Target Bonus), based on the achievement of individual and company performance objectives which
shall be established by Motive or its Board of Directors (the “Board”). 
 (e) Stock Options. In connection with the execution of this Agreement, Motive is granting to Employee 100, 000 stock options according to Motive’s Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan. Employee shall acquire a vested
interest in twelve (12) equal quarterly installments, commencing on September 30, 2007 and continuing thereafter on each succeeding December 31st, March 31st, June 30th and
September 30th, provided, however, that the stock shall vest automatically and entirely upon a Change in Control and a termination of
Employee’s employment by Motive for any reason other than Cause (as defined in this Agreement), such termination occurring within twelve months of a Change in Control. This stock option grant, and any other stock options or restricted stock
granted to Employee, shall be governed by the terms of the agreement accompanying the grant, Motive’s Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan, and other applicable plan documents.

 (f) Other Compensation. None 
 (g) Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance Coverage. Employee shall have the benefit of such directors’ and officers’ insurance
coverage as Motive shall from time to time obtain, but in no event less than that provided to any other director or officer of Motive. 
 (h)
Expenses. In addition to reimbursement of business expenses in accordance with Motive’s policies, Motive shall reimburse Employee for the following: 
 (i) Weekly roundtrip airfare and travel expenses from the metropolitan Washington, DC area to Austin, Texas; 
 (ii) Temporary living expenses for 6 months from the Effective Date including housing, car rental, and meals. 
 In the event the reimbursement of expenses described in (i) and (ii) above are deemed taxable to Employee, then such reimbursements shall be
“grossed up” by Motive so as to have a neutral after tax impact to Employee. 
 (i) Professional Associations Company shall
reimburse Employee for fees related to his attorney’s license and for membership in the American Bar Association, International Bar Association, American Corporate Counsel Association, and Computer Law Association. Business conditions
permitting, Employee shall be granted leave with pay to attend the annual meetings of the International Bar Association, and International Bar Association Section on Business Law, and any successors thereof. 
 4. TERMINATION. This Agreement and Employee’s employment may be terminated by either party at any time and for any reason, subject to
the following provisions: 
 (a) Termination by Employee. Employee agrees that if Employee intends to terminate this Agreement or
Employee’s employment for any reason, Employee will give Motive at least 30 days’ advance written notice of such termination.

 (e) Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good
Reason” exists if, without Employee’s written consent: 
 (i) Motive (or its successor) makes a material
change in Employee’s primary work location (for purposes of this provision, the relocation of Employee’s primary work location by more than fifty (50) miles, such that Employee is required to relocate Employee’s permanent

(or its successor) materially diminishes Employee’s authority, duties or responsibilities; 
 (iv) Motive (or its

Board; 
 (v) Motive (or its successor) materially diminishes the budget over which Employee retains authority; or 

(vi) Any material breach of this Agreement by Motive; 
 provided, that Employee provides the Board with written notice of the existence of the condition described above within a period not to exceed ninety (90) days of the initial existence of the applicable
condition, and Motive fails to cure such condition within thirty (30) days of the date the Board receives Employee’s written notice; provided further, that Employee’s termination of employment for Good Reason occur not more
than two years following the initial existence of one or more of the conditions set forth in clauses (i)-(vi) above.

given, with no obligation for payment of any additional amounts. 
 5. CHANGE IN CONTROL
SEVERANCE BENEFITS. 
 (a) Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in
Control” shall mean: 
 (i) The consummation of a merger or consolidation of Motive with or into another entity
or any other corporate reorganization, if persons who were not stockholders of Motive immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or other reorganization beneficially own immediately after such merger, consolidation or other reorganization 50%
or more of the voting power of the outstanding securities of each of (1) the continuing or surviving entity and (2) any direct or indirect parent corporation of such continuing or surviving entity; or 
 (ii) The sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of Motive assets; or 
 (iii) A change in the composition of the Board of Motive, as a result of which fewer than 50% of the incumbent directors are directors who
either (1) had been directors of Motive on the date 12 months prior to the date of the event that may constitute a Change in Control (the “original directors”) or (2) were elected, or nominated for election, to the
Board with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of the aggregate of the original directors who were still in office at the time of the election or nomination and the directors whose election or nomination was previously so approved; or

 (iv) Any transaction as a result of which any person is the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under
the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of Motive representing at least 50% of the total voting power represented by Motive’s then outstanding voting securities. For purposes of this Paragraph (d), the term “person”
shall have the same meaning as when used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act but shall exclude (1) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or of a Parent or Subsidiary and
(2) a corporation owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Common Shares of the Company. 
 A transaction shall not constitute a Change in Control if its sole purpose is to change the state of the Company’s incorporation or to create a
holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held Motive’s securities immediately before such transaction.

targets or metrics were met by both Employee and Motive during such year.
