**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

The information set forth under Item 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements for Certain Officers.**

On October 16, 2025 (the "Grant Date"), the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Marchex, Inc. (the "Compensation Committee"), pursuant to its review of compensation for executive officers of the Corporation, approved updated annual base salaries of $400,000 for Troy Hartless, Marchex's President and Chief Revenue Officer; $375,000 for Francis Feeney, Marchex's Chief Operating Officer and Chief Legal Officer; and $275,000 for Brian Nagle, Marchex's Chief Financial Officer. In addition, the Compensation Committee approved stock option grants under the Corporation's 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") of 150,000 options to each of Hartless and Feeney, and 125,000 options to Nagle. Such options will vest over four years, with 25% of the total option shares vesting on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and the remainder vesting quarterly thereafter over the next three (3) year period in equal increments of 6.25% of the aggregate amount of such shares. All such options shall have an exercise price being the closing price of the Corporation's Class B common stock on the Grant Date, and shall be an incentive stock option to the extent permitted by the IRS Code and otherwise a nonqualified stock option. In addition, the Compensation Committee also approved restricted stock units ("RSUs") grants under the Plan of 150,000 RSUs to each of Hartless and Feeney, and 125,000 RSUs to Nagle. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Corporation's Class B Common Stock upon vesting, and such RSUs will vest in full on the fourth annual anniversary of the Grant Date.

On the Grant Date, the Company also updated the following employment terms for Nagle, consistent with the terms for Hartless and Feeney. In the event that Nagle is terminated by the Company without "Cause" (as such term is defined in the Company's standard form Executive Officer offer letter as previously disclosed), or by Nagle for "Good Reason" (defined as material diminution in duties, reduction in annual salary or target bonus from prior year, or relocation of place of performance of duties by more than 50 miles) following the occurrence of a "Change in Control" (as defined in the Plan), Nagle will receive a lump sum payment equal to twelve months of base salary plus the amount of any earned bonus for the prior calendar year (such bonus amount capped at 100% of such officer's then annual salary), and twelve months of COBRA benefits. In the event of termination of employment due to death or disability, Nagle or his estate will receive eighteen months of COBRA benefits. In the event of a Change in Control, termination by the Company of Nagle without "Cause," or termination by Nagle due to death or disability prior to a Change in Control, 100% of any and all unvested time-based and performance options, restricted stock, and RSUs held by Nagle shall become immediately vested.
