Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 15, 2013, eGain Corporation (the “Company”) discovered that on February 14, 2013, the Company’s primary bank account in the United Kingdom had been improperly accessed and that unauthorized transfers of approximately $3.9 million had occurred. The Company promptly obtained a court order freezing the funds. Based on information received from the financial institutions involved, all but approximately $800,000 has been secured and is being held for return to the Company. The Company, with the assistance of an independent third-party investigation firm, is working with financial institutions and authorities in the U.K. to recover the outstanding funds. Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes any losses resulting from the unauthorized transfers, net of a $25,000 deductible, will be covered by the Company’s insurance. None of the Company’s other bank accounts has been impacted, and the Company currently believes this to be an isolated event. The Company does not believe that the theft will have a material impact on its business or operations.
