Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 22, 2011, Constant Contact, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into its standard indemnification agreement with Rick W. Jensen, the Company’s Senior Vice President, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer. The Company’s standard indemnification agreement, which it enters into with all of its directors and officers and certain other employees, provides that the Company will indemnify the individual to the fullest extent permitted by law for claims arising in his or her capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, provided that he or she acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the Company’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In the event that the Company does not assume the defense of a claim against a director or officer or other employee, the Company is required to advance his or her expenses in connection with his or her defense, provided that he or she undertakes to repay all amounts advanced if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.
The foregoing summary of the Company’s standard indemnification agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of indemnification agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
From May 6, 2011 to May 12, 2011, while it was permissible under the applicable securities laws for officers and directors of the Company to purchase and sell securities of the Company, the following officers entered into binding trading plans (the “10b5-1 Plans”):
                 
        Maximum number    
        of shares of    
        common stock that   Time period during
        may be sold under   which sales may occur

Pursuant to the 10b5-1 Plans, certain shares of the Company’s common stock held by such individuals will be sold on a periodic basis without further direction from the individual in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable 10b5-1 Plan, which in all cases include minimum sale price thresholds. Under the Company’s insider trading policy, trades will not occur under the 10b5-1 Plans until at least 90 days after the execution date of the applicable 10b5-1 Plan. Each of the 10b5-1 Plans is designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company’s insider trading policy. Transactions made pursuant to the 10b5-1 Plans will be disclosed publicly through Form 144 and Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except as may be required by law, the Company does not undertake to report on specific Rule 10b5-1 plans of the Company’s officers or directors, nor to report modifications or terminations of such plans.
