 2Confidential Separation Agreement

 EXHIBIT 10.01 
  
 CONFIDENTIAL SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND MUTUAL RELEASE 
  
 The Separation Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered between KANA Software, Inc., its officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys, assignees, successors and predecessors (collectively, “KANA”) and Tim Angst (“Employee”). 
  
 WHEREAS, Employee has been employed by KANA, and KANA and Employee have agreed that Employee’s employment terminated as
of the Employment Termination Date set forth below; and 
  
 WHEREAS, KANA and Employee wish to sever their relationship in a way that preserves the good will which exists between them. 
  
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, performance hereunder, and for other valuable consideration the receipt of which
is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
  
 1. Termination of
Employment and Separation Compensation. Employee’s employment with KANA terminated effective September 1, 2005 (“Employment Termination Date”). Employee will continue to receive his base salary, including all health and
medical benefits, and will continue to be treated as a full-time employee of KANA until the Employment Termination Date. However, Employee will not be required to report to work, but shall be reasonably available at the Company’s request to
assist in any transition matters that arise. While Employee shall continue to receive all health and medical related benefits up to the Employment Termination Date, he shall not accumulate vacation or personal time off, and he shall not be eligible
to receive any commissions or other bonus payments. On the Employee Termination Date, Employee agrees that the payment of the base salary referenced in this Paragraph 1 shall be paid upon the Effective Date (as defined in Section 18) . In full
consideration for the covenants, promises and releases set forth herein, and subject to Employee’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and if Employee does not revoke this Agreement (as described in Section 18 below), Employee will
receive the following: 
  
 (a) Severance Pay: KANA will
pay Employee $83,335 (“Severance Pay”), which constitutes the equivalent of five (5) months of base salary for Employee that was in effect as of April 28, 2005, less legally mandated payroll deductions and withholdings.
Severance Pay will be paid on a monthly basis over Five (5) months beginning on the Effective Date (as defined in Section 18) (“Severance Period”). 
  
 (b) Options: As of the Employment Termination Date, Employee holds options to purchase the shares of KANA Common
Stock identified as “Shares Vested as of Employment Termination Date” on Exhibit A at the applicable purchase Price identified on Exhibit A (the “Options”). According to KANA’s stock option plans, all further vesting
would normally cease on the Employment Termination Date. However, in exchange for your release of claims set forth below, KANA will request that its Board of Directors and/or Compensation Committee approve a change in vesting. As a result, at the
Employment Termination Date, the shares identified as Accelerated Options will become vested (the “Vested Options”) as of the Employment Termination Date. The Vested Options represent an additional vesting of five (5) months (to
February 6, 2006). Solely the 

  

			
	Confidential	  	 

 
Options and Vested Options will be vested and exercisable by Employee. The delay in KANA filing its Annual Report of Form 10-K for FY 2004, as well as the
delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of FY 2005, KANA is currently unable to allow option exercises. KANA’s ability to allow option exercises may be further delayed should KANA be delayed in filing its Form
10-Q for Q2 2005. However, Employee will have a full ninety (90) days from the date on which KANA becomes authorized (subject to regulatory laws) to allow option exercises (“Exercise Window”) to exercise Employee’s Options (to
the extent vested) and Vested Options. Employee understands and agrees that this vesting schedule shall be approved by the Board of Directors and/or Compensation Committee following the revocation period in Section 18 and only if Employee does not
revoke this Agreement. This Agreement is made by KANA solely in exchange for the release of claims set forth below and Employee is not otherwise entitled to the change in vesting by KANA. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this
Agreement, any stock option plan or stock option agreement, Employee shall have until the later of the expiration date of the Exercise Window or May 5, 2006 to exercise the Options or Vested Options. 
  
 2. Employee’s Release of Claims and Obligations. 
  
 Representation Regarding Existing Claims. Employee hereby warrants
that as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Employee has not filed any legal action in any court or federal, state or local government agency naming KANA or any KANA representative as a party. 
  
 (a) Release of Claims By Employee. Employee, individually and on
behalf of his representatives, successors, and assigns, does hereby completely release and forever discharge KANA, its shareholders, employees, owners, officers and directors, Board Members, and all other representatives, agents, entities,
subsidiaries, divisions, directors, attorneys, successors, and assigns (“Releasees”) from all claims, rights, demands, actions, obligations, and causes of action of any and every kind, nature and character, known or unknown, which
Employee may now have, or has ever had, against any and all of them arising from in any way connected with the employment relationship between the parties, any actions taken or omitted during the relationship, the termination thereof, or subsequent
thereto. This release covers all statutory, common law, constitutional and other claims, including but not limited to: all “wrongful discharge” and “constructive discharge” claims; all claims relating to any contracts of
employment, express or implied; any claims for defamation, misrepresentation, fraud, or breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, express or implied; any claim for negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress; any claim for
negligence; any claims for attorney’s fees or costs; and tort of claims of any nature; any claims under federal, state or municipal statute or ordinance; any claims under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, 42 U.S.C. Section 1981, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the
California Labor and Civil Codes, The California Constitution, Federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Federal Family and Medical Leave Act, California Family Rights Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, and any other laws and
regulation relating to employment, employment discrimination, and employment termination. Employee represents and warrants that as of the date Employee signs this Agreement, there exists no claim, and Employee has filed no action in any court or
governmental agency naming any Releasee as a party. 
  
 However,
nothing herein releases or waives Employee’s right to indemnification from KANA based on any agreement between Employee and the Company, state or federal law, or applicable policy of insurance. 
  

			
	Confidential	  	 

 (b) Release of Claims By Employer. Employer, on behalf of its parent, subsidiary, predecessor,
successor and affiliate corporations, and their respective shareholders, employees, owners, officers, directors, board members, and all other representatives, agents, entities, subsidiaries, divisions, and assigns (hereinafter

Releasors may now have or ever have had or arising from and in any way connected with the employment relationship and its termination of Employee or any other matter arising or occurring prior to the date this Agreement is signed. 
  
 (c) Waiver of Unknown Future Claims. Employee and KANA have read
Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which provides as follows: 
  
 A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS/HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM/HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS/HER
SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. 
  
 Employee and KANA acknowledge that
Section 1542 gives him/it the right not to release existing claims of which he/it is not now aware, unless he/it voluntarily chooses to waive this right. Having been so apprised, Employee nevertheless hereby voluntarily waives the rights described
in Section 1542, and elects to assume all risks for claims that now exist in his/its favor known or unknown, arising from the subject matter of this Agreement. 
  

(d) Return of KANA Property. Employee hereby represents that he has returned any and all of KANA’s property, including, but not limited to,
all equipment, and originals and copies of any files, memoranda, or other documents, and all records and credit cards, in his possession or control. 
  
 (e) Confidential Information. Employee hereby acknowledges that as a result of Employee’s employment with KANA, Employee has had access to and
has acquired Confidential Information and trade secrets concerning KANA’s operations, its future plans and its methods of doing business, including, but not limited to, information about KANA’s customers, product development, research,
technology, financial, marketing, pricing, cost, compensation and other matters. Employee agrees to hold all such Confidential Information in strictest confidence and to not use or disclose Confidential Information to anyone. Employee further
confirms that Employee has delivered to KANA all documents and data of any nature containing or pertaining to such Confidential Information and that Employee has not taken, and will not take with him any such documents or data or any reproduction
thereof. 
  
 (e) Nondisparagement; Affirmative
Representation. Each party agrees that it will not disparage the other party, or a party’s products, services, agents, representatives, directors, officers, shareholders, attorneys, employees, vendors, affiliates, successors or assigns, or
any person acting by, through, under or in concert with any of them, in any written or oral statement. 
  

			
	Confidential
