Item 8.01. Other Matters.

As previously disclosed, the Audit Committee of Motive, Inc.’s Board of Directors is conducting a review of various financial accounting issues and matters and, in connection therewith, Motive announced on April 3, 2006 that it was restating its financial results for periods dating back to 2001. Also as previously disclosed, Motive’s management has been uncertain regarding the Company’s ability to achieve the previously disclosed November 30, 2006 estimated date for completing its restated financial statements and filing all of its delinquent periodic reports with the SEC. As a result of the ongoing efforts of Motive’s Audit Committee and management, a determination has been made that Motive will not be in position to complete its restated financial statements and file its delinquent periodic reports with the SEC by November 30, 2006. While management can not estimate when Motive will be in a position to complete these matters, the Company continues to be committed to completing its restated financial statements and periodic reports as soon as reasonably practicable.
