Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

As previously reported, Motive, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter, dated February 28, 2006, from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Hearings Panel, indicating that the Panel, subject to certain conditions, had granted the Company an additional extension of time until April 13, 2006 in which to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2005 and all required restated financial statements for previous periods, and to otherwise meet all listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market. In addition, the Company previously reported that it determined on March 28, 2006 that it will need additional time in order to complete its periodic financial reports and will be unable to meet the April 13, 2006 deadline.

On April 3, 2006, the Company received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market indicating that as a result of the Company’s failure to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company is not in compliance with the Nasdaq requirements for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) requires the Company to make on a timely basis all filings with the SEC, as required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Accordingly, the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting from The Nasdaq National Market. If delisted, the Company expects its common stock to trade on the over-the-counter market and the Company intends to file an application for listing with The Nasdaq National Market as soon as possible after becoming current with its periodic financial reports. There can be no assurance that such an application will be granted. If the Company’s common stock is delisted from The Nasdaq National Market, the liquidity of its common stock could be adversely impacted and the Company may experience other adverse consequences resulting from the delisting and the failure to timely file periodic reports.
