PROXY STATEMENT

General

This Proxy Statement is furnished to the stockholders of record of LivePerson, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“LivePerson” or the “Company”), as of the record date, in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Tuesday, June 10, 2008, and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. The Annual Meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Daylight time) at the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel (Manhattan Times Square South), Meeting Room A, 114 West 40^th Street, New York, New York 10018 (Tel: 212-391-0088). This Proxy Statement and the accompanying Proxy Card and Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders are first being mailed on or about May 9, 2008 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements thereof.

Voting

The specific matters to be considered and acted upon at the Annual Meeting are:

(i) the election of two directors;

(ii) the ratification of the Audit Committee’s appointment of BDO Seidman, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008; and

(iii) to act upon such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

These matters are described in more detail in this Proxy Statement.

On the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof, 47,175,139 shares of the Company’s Common Stock were issued and outstanding. No shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, were outstanding. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held by such stockholder on the record date. Stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors.

The stock transfer books of the Company will remain open between the record date and the date of the Annual Meeting, and any adjournments or postponements thereof. A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, and any adjournments or postponements thereof, will be available for inspection at the Annual Meeting, and any adjournments or postponements thereof, and for a period of ten days prior to the meeting during regular business hours at the offices of the Company listed above.

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the Annual Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum in connection with the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes (i.e., proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares as to a matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power to vote). Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business.

If a quorum is present, the two nominees who receive the greatest number of votes properly cast (in person or by proxy) will be elected as Class II Directors. Neither abstentions nor broker non-votes will have any effect on the outcome of voting with respect to the election of the Class II directors.

Proposals other than for the election of the Class II directors shall be approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Common Stock present at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions will be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast on these proposals presented to the stockholders and will have the same effect as negative votes, whereas broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining whether such a proposal has been approved.

Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, stockholders are not entitled to dissenter’s rights with respect to any matter to be considered and voted on at the Annual Meeting, and the Company will not independently provide stockholders with any such right.

Proxies

If the enclosed Proxy Card is properly signed and returned, the shares represented thereby will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions specified thereon. If a signed and returned Proxy Card does not specify how the shares represented thereby are to be voted, the proxy will be voted FOR the election of the Class II directors proposed by the Board, unless the authority to vote for the election of such directors is withheld. In addition, if no contrary instructions are given, the proxy will be voted FOR the approval of Proposal 2 described in this Proxy Statement and as the proxy holders deem advisable for all other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting. You may revoke or change your proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting by filing with the Secretary of the Company, at the Company’s principal executive offices at 462 Seventh Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, New York 10018, a notice of revocation or another signed Proxy Card with a later date. You may also revoke your proxy by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

Solicitation

The Company will bear the entire cost of solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the enclosed Proxy Card and any additional solicitation materials furnished to the stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward this solicitation material to such beneficial owners. In addition, the Company may reimburse such persons for their costs in forwarding the solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. The original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by a solicitation by telephone, telegram or other means by directors, officers or employees of the Company. No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services. Except as described above, the Company does not presently intend to solicit proxies other than by mail.

2

Deadline for Receipt of Stockholder Proposals

In order to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s Proxy Statement and Proxy Card relating to the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, any proposal by a stockholder submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, must be received by the Company at its principal executive offices in New York, New York, on or before January 9, 2009. In addition, under the Company’s bylaws, any proposal for consideration at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders submitted by a stockholder other than pursuant to Rule 14a-8 will be considered timely if it is received by the Secretary of the Company at its principal executive offices between the close of business on February 10, 2009 and the close of business on March 12, 2009, and is otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Company’s bylaws. The proxy solicited by the Board of Directors for the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders will confer discretionary authority to vote as the proxy holders deem advisable on such stockholder proposals which are considered untimely.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT ANNUAL MEETING

PROPOSAL ONE—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

General

The Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for a classified Board of Directors, consisting of three classes of directors with staggered three-year terms, with each class consisting, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors. At the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which the term of a class of directors expires, director nominees in such class will stand for election to three-year terms. With respect to each class, a director’s term will be subject to the election and qualification of such director’s successor, or the earlier death, resignation or removal of such director.

The Board consists of six persons, as follows:

Class I (current term ends upon 2010 Annual Meeting)	Class II (current term ends upon this Annual Meeting)	Class III (current term ends upon 2009 Annual Meeting)
Emmanuel Gill	Steven Berns	Kevin C. Lavan
William G. Wesemann	Timothy E. Bixby	Robert P. LoCascio

The term of office for the two Class II directors listed above expires at the Annual Meeting. The Board has selected Messrs. Berns and Bixby, the current Class II directors, as nominees for Class II directors whose term of office will expire at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Messrs. Berns and Bixby have agreed to be named as nominees and to continue to serve as directors, if elected, and management has no reason to believe that they will be unavailable to serve. If either Mr. Berns or Mr. Bixby is unable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted for any nominee who may be designated by the present Board of Directors to fill the vacancy. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them FOR Messrs. Berns and Bixby. The proxies solicited by this Proxy Statement cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named.

Required Vote

The Class II directors shall be elected by the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares of the Common Stock present at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote in the election of directors. Pursuant to applicable Delaware law, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that a majority of its directors (Messrs. Berns, Gill, Lavan and Wesemann) are independent under the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market.

Board Committees and Meetings

The Board of Directors held five meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, which we refer to in this Proxy Statement as the 2007 Fiscal Year, and also acted by unanimous written consent on one occasion. The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Governance Committee. In the 2007 Fiscal Year, each director attended or participated in 75% or more of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors, and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which such director served (in each case for meetings held during the period in the 2007 Fiscal Year for which such director served).

Directors who are not members of the Company’s management meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without members of management present. At least two of these meetings each year are to include only those directors who are independent under the current listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market. Currently, all non-employee directors are independent.

All members of the Board of Directors are encouraged to attend the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders. At the 2007 Annual Meeting, two of our directors attended.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee appoints our independent registered public accounting firm, subject to ratification by our stockholders, reviews the plan for and the results of the independent audit, approves the fees of our independent registered public accounting firm, reviews with management and the independent registered public accounting firm our quarterly and annual financial statements and our internal accounting, financial and disclosure controls, reviews and approves transactions between LivePerson and its officers, directors and affiliates and performs other duties and responsibilities as set forth in a charter approved by the Board of Directors. The members of the Audit Committee are Mr. Berns, Mr. Gill and Mr. Lavan (Chair). Each member of the Audit Committee is independent, as independence is defined for purposes of Audit Committee membership by the listing standards of Nasdaq and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Audit Committee held five meetings during the 2007 Fiscal Year.

6

The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including LivePerson’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement, as required by Nasdaq rules. In addition, the Board has determined that Mr. Lavan satisfies the Nasdaq rule requiring that at least one member of our Board’s Audit Committee have past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or any other comparable experience or background which results in the member’s financial sophistication, including being, or having been, a chief executive officer, chief financial officer or other senior officer with financial oversight responsibilities. The Board has also determined that Mr. Lavan is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the SEC.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors recommends, reviews and oversees the salaries, benefits and stock option plans for our employees, consultants, directors and other individuals whom we compensate. The Compensation Committee also administers our compensation plans. The Compensation Committee also performs other duties and responsibilities as set forth in a charter approved by the Board of Directors. The members of the Compensation Committee are Mr. Berns (Chair), Mr. Gill and Mr. Wesemann. Each member of the Compensation Committee is independent, as independence is defined for purposes of Compensation Committee membership by the listing standards of Nasdaq. The Compensation Committee deliberated as needed during regularly scheduled board meetings during the 2007 Fiscal Year and acted by written consent as needed during the 2007 Fiscal Year.

In making its determinations with respect to executive compensation, the Compensation Committee has not historically engaged the services of a compensation consultant. The Compensation Committee annually reviews competitive compensation data prepared by Culpepper and Associates, a provider of worldwide salary surveys and benchmark data for compensation and employee benefit programs in the technology industry, as well as compensation data made publicly available by peer group companies. The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain, terminate and set the terms of the Company’s relationship with any outside advisors who assist the Committee in carrying out its responsibilities.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Board established a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as of April 24, 2008. The responsibilities of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include identifying individuals qualified to become Board members, recommending to our Board the persons to be nominated for election as directors and to each of the Board’s committees, reviewing and making recommendations to the Board with respect to management succession planning, developing and recommending to the Board corporate governance principles, and overseeing evaluation of the Board as needed.

The processes and procedures followed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in identifying and evaluating director candidates are described below under “Director Nomination Process.”

The members of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs. Berns, Gill, Lavan and Wesemann (Chair). Each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is independent, as defined under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

Director Nomination Process

The processes established by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter to identify and evaluate director candidates include requests to Board members and others for recommendations, evaluation of biographical information and background material relating to potential candidates and interviews of selected candidates by members of the Committee and the Board, all on an as-needed basis from time to time.

7

In considering whether to recommend any particular candidate for inclusion in the Board’s slate of recommended director nominees, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will apply the criteria attached to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s charter. These criteria include the candidate’s integrity, business acumen, knowledge of our business and industry, experience, diligence, conflicts of interest and the ability to act in the interests of all stockholders. Specific weighting is not assigned to the criteria and no particular criterion is a prerequisite for each prospective nominee. Our Board of Directors believes that the backgrounds and qualifications of its directors, considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow it to fulfill its responsibilities.

Prior to April 2008, a majority of the independent directors of the Board recommended and evaluated nominees for director. The independent directors of the Board, in carrying out the nomination function, did not operate under a charter. Each of the directors of the Board who carried out the nomination function in the 2007 Fiscal year was independent, as defined by the listing standards of Nasdaq.

Stockholders wishing to bring a nomination for a director candidate at a stockholders meeting must give written notice to LivePerson’s Corporate Secretary, pursuant to the procedures set forth under “Communicating with the Board of Directors” and subject to the deadline set forth under “Deadline for Stockholder Proposals.” The stockholder’s notice must set forth all information relating to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate that is required to be disclosed under applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and LivePerson’s bylaws. Our bylaws can be accessed in the “Company—-About Us—Investor Relations” section of our web site at www.liveperson.com.

Communicating with the Board of Directors

In order to communicate with the Board of Directors as a whole, with non-employee directors or with specified individual directors, correspondence may be directed to LivePerson, Inc. at 462 Seventh Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, New York 10018, Attention: Corporate Secretary. All such correspondence will be forwarded to the appropriate director or group of directors. The Corporate Secretary has the authority to discard or disregard any communication that is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or otherwise inappropriate.

Corporate Governance Documents

The Board has adopted a Code of Conduct that applies to all officers, directors and employees, and a Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers. Both codes of conduct can be accessed in the “Company—-About Us—Investor Relations” section of our web site at www.liveperson.com, as well as any amendments to, or waivers under, the Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers. Copies may be obtained by writing to LivePerson, Inc., 462 Seventh Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, New York 10018, Attention: Investor Relations. Copies of the charters of our Board’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, as well as copies of LivePerson’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, can also be accessed in the “Company—-About Us—Investor Relations” section of our web site.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Compensation Objectives and Strategy

The Company’s executive officer compensation program is designed to attract and retain the caliber of officers needed to ensure the Company’s continued growth and profitability and to reward them for the Company’s performance, their individual performance, and for creating longer term value for stockholders. The primary objectives of the program are to:

· align incentives, including bonus targets and performance metrics, with performance that creates stockholder value;

· retain and encourage high potential team players to build a career at the Company; and

· provide incentives that are cost-efficient, competitive with other organizations and fair to employees and stockholders.

The Company’s executive compensation programs are approved and administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Working with management, the Compensation Committee has developed a compensation, bonus and benefits strategy designed to reward performance and reinforces a culture that the Compensation Committee believes will promote long-term success. The Company does not engage a compensation consultant. The Company relies heavily upon benchmarking criteria provided by a third party data service focused primarily on small and mid-sized technology companies, which are the most comparable peer group for the Company. The Company also relies on publicly available data regarding industry peer group companies.

The compensation program rewards team accomplishments as well as promoting individual accountability. Compensation depends primarily on Company results and individual performance against objectives. The goal of the program is to maintain a strong relationship between individual efforts, Company results and financial rewards.

14

A portion of total compensation is placed at risk through annual and long-term incentives. The combination of incentives is designed to balance annual operating objectives and Company earnings’ performance with longer-term stockholder value creation.

We seek to provide competitive compensation that is commensurate with performance. We target compensation within an appropriate range above and below the market median, and calibrate both annual and long-term incentive opportunities to generate less-than-median awards when goals are not fully achieved and greater-than-median awards when goals are exceeded.

We seek to promote a long-term commitment to the Company by our senior executives. We believe that there is great value to the Company in having a team of long-tenure, seasoned managers. In addition, the vesting schedules attached to option awards (generally 25% per year over 4 years, time-based vesting) reinforce this long-term orientation.

Role of the Compensation Committee

General

The Compensation Committee provides overall guidance for our executive compensation policies and determines the elements of compensation for our executive officers. The Compensation Committee’s function is more fully described in its charter, which has been approved by our Board of Directors.

The Compensation Committee currently consists of three members of our Board of Directors, Steven Berns (Chair), Emmanuel Gill and William Wesemann, each of whom is “independent” as defined by the listing qualifications of The NASDAQ Stock Market and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

The Compensation Committee reviews executive compensation annually, in conjunction with annual operational and financial planning for the upcoming fiscal year, and also periodically as needed for specific executive compensation issues that may arise at other times.

The Compensation Committee determines compensation for the Chief Executive Officer and the President in its sole discretion, and reviews and considers recommendations by the CEO and President when determining compensation for the other members of executive management.

Use of Outside Advisors

In making its determinations with respect to executive compensation, the Compensation Committee has not historically engaged the services of a compensation consultant.

The Compensation Committee annually reviews competitive compensation data prepared by Culpepper and Associates, a provider of worldwide salary surveys and benchmark data for compensation and employee benefit programs in the technology industry, as well as publicly available data for industry peer group companies.

Compensation Structure

Pay Elements - Overview

15

The Company utilizes four main components of compensation:

· Salary - fixed pay that takes into account an individual’s role and responsibilities, experience, expertise and individual performance.

· Annual Incentive - variable pay that is designed to reward attainment of annual business goals. Executives qualify for an annual cash incentive payment based on a combination of Company and individual performance against objectives. In the case of executives whose primary objective is revenue generation, incentive compensation may take the form of commissions tied to revenue as well as other Company and individual performance metrics.

· Long-Term Incentives - the Company’s equity-based incentive plan allows for awards that may include stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance shares and other stock-based awards, including restricted stock units and deferred stock units. To date, the Company has used only stock options for long-term incentive awards.

· Benefits and Perquisites - additional security or services, including medical, dental and life insurance benefits and retirement savings.

Pay Elements - Details

1.Salary

The Compensation Committee annually reviews officer salaries and makes adjustments as warranted based on individual responsibilities and performance, Company performance in light of market conditions and competitive practices. Salary adjustments are generally approved during the first quarter of the calendar year and implemented during the second quarter. Salary adjustments for 2008 were based on an evaluation of benchmarking data, company and individual performance, strategic achievements, market conditions and competitive practices, among other factors.

2.Annual Incentive Compensation

Annual incentive compensation for certain designated key employees is paid under a bonus plan for each year. The plan is designed to provide awards to such individuals as an incentive to contribute to both revenue growth and profitability on a team basis and as against individual objectives that relate to overall Company goals. Currently, all employees of the Company participate in either a bonus plan, or in the case of sales representatives, a commission plan tied primarily to revenue metrics.

Bonuses are contingent upon the attainment of certain performance targets established by the Compensation Committee, which may include:

· earnings per share;

· return on equity, assets or capital;

· gross or net revenues;

· earnings before interest, taxes plus amortization and depreciation (“EBITDA”);

· attainment of strategic development objectives; or

· such other goals established by the Committee.

Bonuses are typically paid in cash after the end of the performance period in which they are earned, as determined by the Compensation Committee.

16

The Company expects that the bonus payout in any given year for any individual will be between 50% and 150% of the individual’s target bonus. During the last three years, overall bonus payouts have approximated this range.

3.Long-term Incentives - Equity-Based Awards

The Company and the Compensation Committee believe that equity-based awards are an important factor in aligning the long-term financial interest of the officers and stockholders. The Compensation Committee continually evaluates the use of equity-based awards and intends to continue to use such awards in the future as part of designing and administering the Company’s compensation program. The Compensation Committee may grant equity incentives under the Company’s 2000 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan in the form of stock options (non-qualified and incentive stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance shares and other stock-based awards, including, without limitation, restricted stock units (RSUs) and deferred stock units. All such grants are issued on the date they are approved by the Compensation Committee, except for new hires who are not employed at the time of grant, in which case the grant date is the first day of employment. The exercise price for stock options is the grant date closing market price per share. Historically, the Compensation Committee has granted stock options that provide for time-based vesting in four equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date.

The Company typically grants options upon initial hire for new employees, and once per year for existing employees. The annual option grant process for existing employees currently takes place in the first quarter of the calendar year.

The Compensation Committee has not granted other stock-based awards in the past. The Compensation Committee will evaluate the mix of stock options, restricted stock and other stock-based awards in the future to provide emphasis on preserving stockholder values generated in recent years while providing incentives for continuing growth in stockholder value.

The Compensation Committee delegates administrative aspects of stock option grants to management.

4.Other Benefits and Perquisites

The Company’s executive compensation program also includes other benefits and perquisites. These benefits include 401(k) plan accounts, Company-paid medical benefits and life insurance coverage. The Company annually reviews these other benefits and perquisites and makes adjustments as warranted based on competitive practices, the Company’s performance and the individual’s responsibilities and performance. The Company currently does not match employee contributions to 401(k) plan accounts.

Pay Mix

We utilize the particular elements of compensation described above because we believe that it provides a well-proportioned mix of security-oriented compensation, retention value and at-risk compensation which produces both short-term and long-term performance incentives and rewards. By following this approach, we provide the executive a measure of security in the base compensation that the individual is eligible to receive, while motivating the executive to focus on the business metrics that will produce a high level of performance for the Company, as well as incentives for executive retention. The mix of metrics used for the annual bonus plan and the Stock Incentive Plan likewise provides an appropriate balance between short-term financial performance and long-term financial and stock performance. Maintaining this pay mix results fundamentally in a pay-for-performance orientation for our executives.

17

Pay Levels and Benchmarking

Pay levels for executives are determined based on a number of factors, including the individual’s roles and responsibilities within the Company, the individual’s experience and expertise, the pay levels for peers within the Company, pay levels in the marketplace for similar positions and performance of the individual and the Company as a whole. The Compensation Committee is responsible for approving pay levels for the executive officers. In determining the pay levels, the Compensation Committee considers all forms of compensation and benefits.

The Compensation Committee assesses “competitive market” compensation using a number of sources. Among other sources, the Compensation Committee relies upon information publicly disclosed by Culpepper and Associates, a provider of worldwide salary surveys and benchmark data for compensation and employee benefit programs in the technology industry. The Compensation Committee also evaluates compensation practices at peer companies in the technology industry based on publicly available information.

After consideration of the data collected on external competitive levels of compensation and internal relationships within the executive group, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves target total compensation opportunities for executives based on the need to attract, motivate and retain an experienced and effective management team.

Relative to the competitive market data, the Compensation Committee generally intends that the salary and target annual incentive opportunity for each executive will be at least at the median of the competitive market.

As noted above, notwithstanding the Company’s overall pay positioning objectives, pay opportunities for specific individuals vary based on a number of factors such as scope of duties, tenure, institutional knowledge and/or difficulty in recruiting a new executive. Actual total compensation in a given year will vary above or below the target compensation levels based primarily on the attainment of operating goals and the creation of stockholder value.

Post-Termination Compensation and Benefits

For certain executives, certain stock options are subject to vesting earlier than the time-based schedule in the event of a change of control of the Company and in certain cases, for termination without cause.

Compensation Committee Discretion

The Compensation Committee retains the discretion to decrease all forms of incentive payouts based on significant individual or Company performance shortfalls. Likewise, the Compensation Committee retains the discretion to increase payouts and/or consider special awards for significant achievements, including but not limited to superior asset management, investment or strategic accomplishments and/or consummation of acquisitions, divestitures, capital improvements to existing properties, or other management objectives.

Conclusion

The level and mix of compensation that is finally decided upon is considered within the context of both the objective data from our competitive assessment of compensation and performance, as well as discussion of the subjective factors as outlined above. The Compensation Committee believes that each of the compensation packages is within the competitive range of practices when compared to the objective comparative data even where subjective factors have influenced the compensation decisions.

Employment Agreements for our Named Executive Officers

Robert P. LoCascio, our Chief Executive Officer, was employed pursuant to an employment agreement entered into as of January 1, 1999. After its initial term, which expired on December 31, 2001, our agreement with Mr. LoCascio extended automatically for one-year terms beginning on each of January 1 in 2002 and 2003. Beginning in 2004, Mr. LoCascio’s employment with us has been at will, but is otherwise subject to the terms of the employment agreement, unless we agree with Mr. LoCascio in writing to alter the terms. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. LoCascio was entitled to receive an annual base salary of not less than $125,000 and an annual discretionary bonus. The Compensation Committee of our Board set Mr. LoCascio’s annual salary at $325,000, effective April 2008 and target incentive compensation for 2008 was set at $200,000. The agreement provided that if Mr. LoCascio is terminated by us without cause or Mr. LoCascio terminates his employment for “good reason,” we must pay him an amount equal to the amount of his salary for the 12 months following the date of termination, and the pro rata portion of the bonus he would have been entitled to receive for the fiscal year in which the termination occurred. These amounts are payable in three monthly installments beginning 30 days after his termination. Good reason for Mr. LoCascio includes a material change or diminution in his duties, a reduction in his salary or bonus under the agreement, if a purchaser of our assets does not assume the obligations of the Company under the agreement, or if his is relocated outside the New York metropolitan area. Pursuant to the agreement, for a period of one year from the date of termination of Mr. LoCascio’s employment, he may not directly or indirectly compete with us, including, but not limited to, being employed by any business which competes with us, or otherwise acting in a manner intended to advance an interest of a competitor of ours in a way that will or may injure an interest of ours.

Timothy E. Bixby, our President and Chief Financial Officer, is employed pursuant to an employment agreement entered into as of June 23, 1999, which shall continue until it is terminated by either party. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Bixby is entitled to receive an annual base salary of not less than $140,000 and an annual discretionary bonus. The Compensation Committee of our Board set Mr. Bixby’s annual salary at $325,000, effective April 2008 and target incentive compensation for 2008 was set at $200,000.Mr. Bixby is also eligible to receive long-term incentive awards determined by our Board consisting of options to purchase Common Stock. If, following a change of control of the Company, Mr. Bixby’s employment is terminated without cause or due to a “constructive discharge,” all of his options then outstanding will vest immediately, we must pay him a lump-sum amount equal to his annual salary plus the pro rata portion of the bonus he would have been entitled to receive for the year in which the termination occurred and he will be entitled to continue to receive healthcare benefits for one year following such a termination. If Mr. Bixby’s employment is terminated without cause or due to a “constructive discharge” not in connection with a change of control of the Company, we must pay Mr. Bixby his base salary for the 12 months following such a termination, his outstanding options will continue to vest under the original vesting schedule for such 12 month period and he will be entitled to continue to receive healthcare benefits for one year following such a termination. Constructive discharge for Mr. Bixby includes a reduction of his salary, material change in his functions and duties or responsibilities. Pursuant to the agreement, for a period of one year from the date of termination of Mr. Bixby’s employment, he may not directly or indirectly compete with us, including, but not limited to, being employed by any business which competes with us, or otherwise acting in a manner intended to advance an interest of a competitor of ours in a way that will or may injure an interest of ours.

Eli Campo, our Executive Vice President, GM, Technology Operations - Tel Aviv, and we have entered into a letter agreement, dated as of December 22, 2006, that confirmed the terms and conditions of Mr. Campo’s employment. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Campo is entitled to receive an annual base salary of 864,000 NIS and benefits in accordance with LivePerson’s existing standard practices and policies and to participate in LivePerson’s bonus plan under terms comparable to other LivePerson employees of a similar role and responsibility. Mr. Campo’s target incentive compensation for 2007 was 215,000 NIS. For our Fiscal Year 2007, the average exchange rate was approximately US$1 / 4.07 NIS. The agreement provides that Mr. Campo’s target incentive compensation in subsequent years will be determined by LivePerson but may not be less than 25% of his then-current annual base salary. Effective April 2008 Mr. Campo’s annual salary was set at 900,000 NIS, and target incentive compensation of 225,000 NIS was established for 2008. We make payments toward various employee benefits in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel. Mr. Campo must provide six months prior notice for a voluntary termination. If Mr. Campo’s full-time employment with us continues during the six month period following his notice of voluntary termination, he would be entitled to receive a the pro rata portion of the bonus he would have been entitled to receive for the fiscal year in which the termination occurred and his options that were scheduled to vest within six months following such termination would accelerate and be fully exercisable upon such termination. If Mr. Campo is terminated by us without cause or “constructively terminated,” he would be entitled to receive a lump-sum amount payment equal to his base salary for six months and the pro rata portion of the bonus he would have been entitled to receive for the fiscal year in which the termination occurred and his options that were scheduled to vest within 12 months following such termination would accelerate and be fully exercisable upon such termination. The severance benefits described in the previous sentence are conditioned on Mr. Campo signing a release of claims.

James J. Dicso, our Senior Vice President, Enterprise Sales and Services, and we have entered into a letter agreement, dated as of November 3, 2004, that confirmed the terms and conditions of Mr. Dicso’s employment. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Dicso was entitled to receive an annual base salary of $200,000 plus incentive compensation based on LivePerson’s revenue performance in 2005. Effective February 2008, Mr. Dicso became our Senior vice President of Enterprise Sales and Services and his base salary was adjusted to $250,000, and target incentive compensation of $150,000 was established for 2008 based on revenue performance and other factors. If Mr. Dicso is terminated without cause, he is entitled to receive his base salary for three months following such termination. If there is a change of control of the Company and Mr. Dicso is terminated without cause, in addition to receiving his base salary for three months following such termination, his options that were scheduled to vest within 12 months following such termination would accelerate and be fully exercisable upon such termination.

Kevin T. Kohn, our Executive Vice President, Marketing, and we have entered into a letter agreement, dated as of August 31, 2004, that confirmed the terms and conditions of Mr. Kohn’s employment. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Kohn was entitled to receive an annual base salary of $200,000 and to participate in LivePerson’s bonus plan under terms comparable to other LivePerson employees of a similar role and responsibility. Effective April 2008, Mr. Kohn’s annual salary was adjusted to $220,500, and target incentive compensation of $70,000 was established for 2008. If Mr. Kohn is terminated without cause after this period, he is entitled to receive his then-current base salary for three months following such termination.

Pursuant to SEC rules, the amounts shown exclude the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions. For additional information on the valuation assumptions with respect to the grants, refer to Note 1(l) of LivePerson’s consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2007 Fiscal Year, as filed with the SEC.

Each non-employee director was granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of our Common Stock on June 12, 2007, the date of our 2007 annual meeting of stockholders, with a grant date fair value of $39,156.  Each non-employee director was also granted an additional option to purchase 5,000 shares of our Common Stock on July 31, 2007, with a grant date fair value of $15,430. These options were immediately exercisable and are subject to repurchase by the Company if the director ceases service before the vesting dates (June 12, 2008 and July 31, 2008, respectively, the first anniversary of the grant dates).

(3) Mr. Gill waived his annual stipend and attendance payments for his services as a director in 2007.

Directors who are also our employees receive no additional compensation for their services as directors. Directors who are not our employees receive an annual cash stipend of $10,000 and a cash payment of $500 for attendance in person or by telephone at each meeting of the Board of Directors or committees of the Board of Directors, and they are reimbursed for reasonable travel expenses and other reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with attendance at meetings. Non-employee directors are granted options to purchase 35,000 shares of our Common Stock upon their election to the Board of Directors. In addition, non-employee directors are granted options to purchase 10,000 shares of our Common Stock on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders. These non-employee director option grants are made under our Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended as of April 21, 2005.

PROPOSAL TWO—RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has appointed the firm of BDO Seidman, LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008, including each quarterly interim period, and the Board of Directors is asking the stockholders to ratify this appointment.

The schedule is specific as to the nature of the proposed services, the proposed fees, and other details that the Audit Committee may request. The Audit Committee by resolution authorizes or declines the proposed services. Upon approval, this schedule serves as the budget for fees by specific activity or service for the year.

A schedule of additional services proposed to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm or proposed revisions to services already approved, along with associated proposed fees, may be presented to the Audit Committee for their consideration and approval at any time. The schedule is required to be specific as to the nature of the proposed service, the proposed fee, and other details that the Audit Committee may request. The Audit Committee intends by resolution to authorize or decline authorization for each proposed new service.
