Directors, officers and 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

ITEM 11.

EXECU TIVE COMPENSATION.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Role of Stockholder Say-on-Pay Votes

In August 2017, we held a stockholder advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers (the “ say-on-pay proposal ”). Our stockholders overwhelmingly approved the compensation of our named executive officers, with approximately 89% of stockholder votes cast in favor of the say-on-pay proposal. The Compensation Committee believes this affirms the stockholders’ support of our approach to executive compensation, and did not change its approach in 2018.

The Compensation Committee will continue to consider the outcome of our say-on-pay votes when making future compensation decisions for the named executive officers.

Overview

We established an Office of the CEO in October 2016 which currently consists of Michael Arends and Russell C. Horowitz. The Office of the CEO performs the duties and responsibilities of the CEO. Our “named executive officers”, or “NEOs”, are:

Michael Arends	Chief Financial Officer and member of the Office of the CEO
Russell C. Horowitz	Executive Chairman and member of the Office of the CEO
Ethan Caldwell	Former Chief Administrative Officer, General Counsel, Secretary and former member of the Office of the CEO, who ceased serving as an executive officer of the Company in December 2018

You can find detailed information regarding the compensation we paid to our NEOs in the tables that begin on page 7.

Our executive compensation programs are intended to serve two related goals:

•

Long-Term Retention of our Strong Management Team . We believe that our continued success depends on our ability to retain our experienced, complementary and dedicated management team. Although we always consider the ultimate interest of our stockholders in setting NEO compensation, we also must acknowledge that our executives face many career options and we therefore must provide strong incentives for them to continue to participate in our growth.

•

Long-Term Growth in Stockholder Value . We believe that management compensation packages should reflect as much as possible the risk and opportunity experienced by our stockholders. As a result, we strongly emphasize performance-based compensation arrangements which reward NEOs for contributions to our long-term growth and overall corporate success.

We believe that this long-term focus will appropriately reward our management team for performance that will most benefit our Company and stockholders. We think that a focus on shorter-term results could inappropriately over- or under-compensate our executives due to short-term fluctuations that do not as accurately reflect our corporate growth and the corresponding benefit to our stockholders.

Our “long-term” emphasis results in NEO compensation packages that are weighted significantly towards long-term equity grants, with a relatively low proportion of NEO compensation derived from cash salaries. Annual cash bonuses to our NEOs are generally paid under our annual incentive plan, which ties such bonus payments directly to our annual corporate performance.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for setting the compensation and benefits for our executive officers, to determine distributions and grants of awards under our various stock and other incentive plans and to assume responsibility for all matters related to the foregoing. Meetings of the Compensation Committee are called by the chair of the committee and the chair sets the agenda for each committee meeting. In performing its responsibilities, the Compensation Committee typically invites, for all or a portion of each meeting, members of the Office of the CEO and other members of management to its meetings. Members of the Office of the CEO meet with the Compensation Committee on an ongoing basis to discuss the objectives and performance of Marchex’s NEOs. For compensation decisions relating to our executive officers, the Compensation Committee considers recommendations from members of the Office of the CEO, who utilize various industry compensation surveys as part of our company wide annual compensation review process. After receipt and discussion of such recommendations with members of the Office of CEO, the Compensation Committee meets to ultimately determine the compensation packages for each of our executive officers. Members of the Office of the CEO do not participate in deliberations regarding their individual compensation.

Role of a Compensation Consultant

The duties of any compensation consultant we engage are generally to evaluate executive compensation, perform an analysis on realized pay alignment with financial and stock performance, discuss general compensation trends, provide competitive market practice data and benchmarking, participate in the design and implementation of certain elements of the executive compensation program and assist our Office of the CEO in developing compensation recommendations to present to the Compensation Committee for the executive officers other than the members of the Office of the CEO. The Compensation Committee may accept, reject or modify any recommendations by compensation consultants or other outside advisors. The compensation consultant does not make specific recommendations on individual amounts for the executive officers or the independent directors, nor does the consultant determine the amount or form of executive and director compensation.

In February 2016, the Compensation Committee engaged Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC (“ Pearl Meyer ”) as its independent compensation consultant. The Compensation Committee conducted an assessment of Pearl Meyer’s independence relative to standards prescribed by the SEC and determined that no conflicts existed. Historically, the Company has not used a compensation consultant for executive compensation matters and the Company did not use a compensation consultant for the 2017 and 2018 period.

NEO Compensation for 2018

Our Compensation Committee in reviewing our executive compensation packages assesses salary, salary history, the number and value of shares owned by our executives, prior equity grants and vesting and exercise history. The Compensation Committee also considers data regarding compensation paid at public media, internet and technology-based companies of comparable size to our Company and which could compete for the services of our NEOs. Although the compensation practices of our competitors instruct our review, we use that data only to gain perspective and do not “benchmark” our compensation to any particular level. The Compensation Committee consults with outside counsel in its review.

Competitive Positioning

The Compensation Committee periodically reviews competitive data regarding compensation at various comparable peer companies. We do not benchmark compensation levels to fall within specific ranges compared to selected peer groups in our industry. We use the information developed by management and counsel using proxy data for peer group companies to gain a general understanding of current compensation practices.

Base Salary

The 2018 salaries shown in the Summary Compensation Table on page 7 were set by our Compensation Committee based on the compensation review discussed above, as well as a consideration of each NEO’s total compensation package including prior equity grants, exercise history, and existing stock ownership. Base salaries are a necessary part of our compensation program and provide executives with a fixed portion of pay that is not performance-based. Our goal is to provide competitive base pay levels. Historically, the Compensation Committee considered our desire to maintain cash remuneration as a relatively small portion of overall compensation. In addition, the Compensation Committee considered each NEO’s skills, experience, level of responsibility, performance and contribution to our Company. The Compensation Committee also took into account in conjunction with the NEO’s specific areas of responsibilities and objectives, each NEO’s contribution to the Company’s overall success as a member of the management team. The Compensation Committee considers the relative compensation levels among all the members of the management team to ensure the Company’s executive compensation programs are internally consistent and equitable. All salaries are reviewed at least annually and subject to future adjustment by the Compensation Committee.

Equity Compensation

All of our employees and directors are eligible to receive options, shares of restricted stock, and/or restricted stock units under our 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “ 2012 Stock Plan ”).

The Compensation Committee does not automatically grant equity to NEOs every year. The Compensation Committee takes into account the various factors outlined in the discussion of base salary above as well as the Company’s financial performance and its impact on stockholder value and also analyzes existing NEO equity holdings and prior equity awards to

take into account whether additional grants are appropriate and necessary to rec alibrate the cash-equity balance of NEO compensation packages.

On August 21, 2018, the Compensation Committee granted stock options to Mr. Arends for our Class B common stock under the 2012 Stock Plan (with time-based vesting), based on the compensation review discussed above. The Compensation Committee determined the size of Mr. Arends’ equity grant based on a consideration of his existing stock ownership and outstanding equity grants awarded in prior years. Given its vesting schedule, we believe that this equity grant will help further motivate Mr. Arends to continue to focus on the long-term success of our business enterprise. You can find more information regarding this grant, including its vesting schedule, by referring to our Outstanding Equity Awards at 2018 Fiscal Year-End Table on pages 8-9.

Most equity awards for employees are tied to their annual performance reviews and are generally granted following the release of our fourth quarter financial results. We may occasionally make employee grants outside of that review process and such awards typically are granted as of the date the grant is approved. All new-hire awards have a grant date set to correspond to the date of hire. All options have an exercise price set at the closing market price of our Class B common stock on the grant date.

Annual Incentive Plan

The Compensation Committee originally adopted our annual incentive plan in 2006 and as amended to date (the “ Incentive Plan ”) to motivate and reward key employees for enabling our Company to achieve specified corporate objectives together, to increase the competitiveness of our management compensation packages without increasing our fixed costs, and to align management compensation with key measures of our financial performance.

The Compensation Committee in its discretion determines the maximum amount available for award, in the aggregate, to all plan participants in light of the number of participants and the Company’s resources. The Compensation Committee also determines the participants in the pool. Eligibility determinations are based upon the Compensation Committee’s assessment of the importance of a participant’s role, together with such participant’s overall cash and equity compensation level. Finally, the Compensation Committee determines the measures of performance on which bonus awards are based, using any of the following as it determines in its sole discretion:

• revenues;

• pre-tax income;

• adjusted operating income before amortization;

• operating income before amortization;

• operating income;

• net earnings;

• net income;

• cash flow or funds from operations;

• adjusted earnings per share;

• earnings per share;

• appreciation in the fair market value of our stock;

• cost reduction or savings;

• implementation of cr itical processes or projects; or

• adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or adjusted earnings before any of them.

The Compensation Committee determined that for the 2018 fiscal period, a maximum aggregate bonus pool of $776,328 would be available for award to plan participants based upon the achievement of updated revenue and adjusted OIBA targets at the highest threshold. The participants for the 2018 fiscal period were Michael Arends, Ethan Caldwell and Russell Horowitz. The target bonus payout percentages were 25 to 175% based on the performance target category and were based on achieving specified revenue (new revenue and total revenue) and adjusted OIBA targets for the 2018 fiscal year with each target category weighted 33 1/3%.

The Compensation Committee elected to use these revenues and adjusted OIBA targets because it believes that such targets most accurately reflect our growth and improvements in our corporate performance without the impact of certain non-

cash and non-recurring expenses which the Company does not regard as ongoing costs of doing business. The Compensation Committee set a range of specific revenue and adjusted OIBA targets based on a review of our actual revenue and adjusted OIBA for the fiscal y ear ended December 31, 201 7 and our budgeted revenue and adjusted OIBA for the 201 8 fiscal year. At the low end of the range, the targets were intended to be difficult but realistic given our expectations regarding corporate performance. The high end of th e range, intended to reflect “optimum” Company performance, were set in consideration of our projected financial results and were considered “stretch” goals.

The Compensation Committee also has absolute discretion to award no bonuses at all even if the highest target is achieved. It is our intention that any such bonus payments would still constitute a relatively small percentage of our NEO compensation so that the bulk of their compensation package will remain dependent on our long-term growth. For 2018, the Compensation Committee awarded cash bonuses under the Incentive Plan in the amount of $22,878 to Mr. Horowitz, $68,438 to Mr. Caldwell, and $377,825 to Mr. Arends.

Cash Bonuses

On August 21, 2017, the Compensation Committee separately approved the following performance cash bonus parameters applicable to Mr. Horowitz: performance cash bonuses subject to the execution of certain customer or partner contracts with each contract exceeding certain annualized minimum contract values and assuming continued employment at each such payment date (a) in the amount of $250,000 (the “ First Performance Payment ”) if such conditions are met on or before December 31, 2017, and (b) additional incremental performance cash bonuses in two tranches of $125,000 each, if such incremental performance conditions are met for one or both tranches on or before August 31, 2018 (collectively, the “ Second Performance Payments ”). The First Performance Payment and Second Performance Payment parameters were met and such amounts were paid to Mr. Horowitz in 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Risk Assessment of Compensation Policies and Practices

We believe our compensation policies and practices do not promote imprudent risk taking. In this regard, we note the following: (i) our annual incentive compensation is based on balanced performance metrics that promote disciplined progress towards longer-term Company goals; (ii) we do not offer short-term incentives that might drive high-risk investments at the expense of long-term Company value; and (iii) our compensation programs are weighted towards offering long-term incentives that reward sustainable performance, especially when considering our executive share ownership. Accordingly, we believe that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of the Compensation Committee during 2018, are or have been an officer or employee of the Company. No member of the Compensation Committee had any relationship with the Company requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. During fiscal year 2018, none of the Company’s executive officers served on the Compensation Committee (or its equivalent) or Board of Directors of another entity any of whose executive officers served on the Company’s Compensation Committee or Board of Directors.
