Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On July 23, 2008, Allen E. Snyder was appointed to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of RightNow Technologies, Inc. (“RightNow” or the “Company”) and to the compensation committee of the Board. Mr. Snyder has been appointed to fill a Class II vacancy on the Board, to serve until the Company’s 2011 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Snyder is currently the CEO of Aepona, a supplier of telecommunication service layer products and solutions to telephone companies globally.

Pursuant to the Company’s policy, Mr. Snyder will be reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with his attendance at Board and committee meetings. Pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), upon appointment to the Board, Mr. Snyder received an automatic option grant for 30,000 shares of common stock that will vest and become exercisable in twelve installments of 2,500 shares every three months from the date of grant. On the date of each annual stockholders meeting occurring after 2008, Mr. Snyder will automatically receive an immediately vested and exercisable option grant under the Plan to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock. Each such option granted has an exercise price per share equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date as quoted by the Nasdaq Global Market, has a maximum term of ten years, and is generally subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan.
