Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 10, 2010, RealSelect, Inc. (“RealSelect”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Move, Inc. (the “Company”), and Realtors Information Network, Inc.(“RIN”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the National Association of REALTORS (the “NAR”), entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) of the Operating Agreement entered into by and between them on November 26, 1996 (the “Operating Agreement”). The Operating Agreement is listed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the 2009 fiscal year (filed on March 5, 2010), as entry no. 10.01.1 of Item 15 —Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules. RealSelect operates the REALTOR.com® website (the “Site”) pursuant to the Operating Agreement. The Amendment is effective as of September 10, 2010.
The Company’s relationship with the NAR extends beyond the Operating Agreement and its primary subject matter, the REALTOR.com® website: the NAR, as indicated in the Company’s Proxy Statement filed April 28, 2010, is a holder of common stock in the Company and is the holder of the Company’s sole share of Series A preferred stock; it has the right to name one of the Company’s directors; and it is important in the context of certain risk factors as disclosed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the 2009 fiscal year (filed on March 5, 2010) and in each of the Company’s subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
The Amendment is one result of the proceedings and discussions related to the Operating Agreement that the Company disclosed in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (filed on August 6, 2010), under “NAR relationship” in Item 1A (Risk Factors) —Risks Related to our Business. The Amendment provides that RealSelect may make changes to the features, designs and layout of the Site without needing the prior approval of RIN, subject to certain exceptions. The Amendment further provides for greater discretion in RealSelect with respect to content additions and establishes certain mutual cooperation and discretionary approval processes regarding new or additional content possibilities.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report. The Company has also attached, as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report, a press release issued on September 16, 2010, by the Company and the NAR regarding the Amendment.
