Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 19, 2013, Support.com, Inc. (“the Company”) entered into an agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Joshua Pickus, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which Mr. Pickus sold directly to the Company on that day an aggregate 1,000,000 shares of its common stock (the “Shares”) acquired by him in a same-day exercise of fully vested options which were due to expire at the end of their seven-year term on April 6, 2013.  February 19, 2013 marks the opening of the last trading window under the Company’s policies prior to the expiration of the option grants underlying the Shares.  Under the Purchase Agreement the purchase price per share was established as an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the closing price of the Company’s common stock in regular trading hours on the day of the sale as reported by Nasdaq Global Select Market less five percent (5%), or (b) the thirty-day simple moving average price of the Company’s common stock on the day of the sale.  This formula produced a purchase price per share of $4.114, less the aggregate strike price due on exercise of the options underlying the Shares of $2.32 per share, which then resulted in a net cash outlay by the Company to acquire the Shares of $1,794,000 (or $1.794 per share).  The Purchase Agreement was approved by the independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and Mr. Pickus was not present during, and did not take part in, the Board’s deliberations regarding the Purchase Agreement.
