Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Acquisition of Pivotal Veracity

On January 12, 2010, Unica Corporation (the "Company") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Rising Sun Acquisition Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger Subsidiary"), and Pivotal Veracity, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Target").

The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of the Target with and into the Merger Subsidiary (the "Merger"), with the Target continuing after the Merger as the surviving limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company’s entry into the Merger Agreement and the completion of the Merger (the ‘Closing") both occurred on January 12, 2010. In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Closing, the limited liability company interests of each limited liability company member of the Target (the "Members"),were converted into and represent the right to receive an amount in cash equal to such Member’s pro rata share of the aggregate purchase price, (the "Merger Consideration") of $17,800,000. At the Closing, an escrow fund in the amount of $1,780,000 (the "Escrow Fund") was deposited into an escrow account to secure certain indemnification obligations of the Members. Except as otherwise provided for in the Merger Agreement, the indemnification obligations of the Members under the Merger Agreement with respect to breaches of representations and warranties made by such Members to the Company and the Merger Subsidiary, are limited to the Escrow Fund. On December 30, 2010, the balance of the Escrow Fund, less any amounts held because they are still subject to unresolved claims at such time will be distributed to the Members.

A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary description of the terms of the Merger and the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement.

Resignation of Richard Welch

On January 18, 2010, Richard Welch, Sr. Vice President, Global Services of Unica Corporation (the "Company"), entered into a Transition Agreement (the "Transition Agreement") with the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Transition Agreement, Mr. Welch agreed to remain employed as the Company’s Sr. Vice President, Global Services until January 31, 2010 at which time he will resign (the "Transition Period"). During the Transition Period, Mr. Welch will continue to receive the same base salary and fringe benefits that he was entitled to immediately prior to executing the Transition Agreement. In addition, Mr. Welch’s outstanding equity awards have been amended to provide for pro rata vesting through June 30, 2010. In accordance with the Transition Agreement, Mr. Welch will receive bi-weekly payments commencing on the next regularly scheduled pay cycle following the date of his resignation and effective upon his execution of a release of claims against the Company, for a period of two (2) months in the total gross amount of $36,800. The Company will pay up to $5,000 for executive support service fees incurred prior to September 30, 2010. In addition, if Mr. Welch timely elects medical and dental coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA"), the Company will pay the Company portion of the monthly premium payments through June 30, 2010. The foregoing summary description of the terms of the Transition Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Transition Agreement a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
