Item 5.02

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

On November 6, 2020, the board of directors (the “Board”) of LiveRamp Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) increased the size of the Board from eight to nine directors and appointed Kamakshi Sivaramakrishnan to fill the newly created directorship. Ms. Sivaramakrishnan’s term will expire at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders so as to maintain an equal number of directors in each class of directors serving on the Board.

Ms. Sivaramakrishnan will be compensated for her Board service in accordance with the standard compensation policy for the Company’s non-employee directors and will be eligible to participate in the LiveRamp Holdings, Inc. Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan, each of which are more fully described in the “Non-Employee Director Compensation” section of the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 26, 2020. Ms. Sivaramakrishnan has not been appointed to serve on any of the Board’s committees at this time. Committee assignments for Ms. Sivaramakrishnan will be made at the quarterly meeting of the board of directors currently scheduled for February 10, 2021, such assignment(s) to be effective as of April 1, 2021.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Sivaramakrishnan and any other person pursuant to which she was selected to serve as a director of the Company, nor is she party to any related party transactions required to be reported pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

 

Item 8.01

Other Events

On November 9, 2020, the Company announced that the Board had approved an amendment to the Company’s share repurchase program to extend its duration through December 31, 2022. As part of the share repurchase program, shares may be purchased in open market transactions or pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined at the Company’s discretion, and the share repurchase program may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason, including for any cash tender offer that the Company may undertake. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares, and all open market repurchases will be made in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 10b-18, which sets certain restrictions on the method, timing, price and volume of open market stock repurchases.
