(d) Appointment of Linda Crawford as Member of the Board of Directors
On March 30, 2021 the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ChannelAdvisor Corporation (the “Registrant”) approved an increase in the size of the Board from eight to nine members and appointed Linda M. Crawford as a director to fill the vacancy created by the increase. As previously announced, Marc Huffman informed the Registrant in November 2020 that he would not stand for re-election as a director at the Registrant’s 2021 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), in order to devote more time to his business and other professional interests. Mr. Huffman’s term will expire immediately prior to the Annual Meeting, after which the Board will consist of eight members. Ms. Crawford will serve in the class of directors whose term will expire at the Registrant’s 2022 annual meeting of stockholders. There is no family relationship between Ms. Crawford and any of the Registrant’s other directors or executive officers. The Registrant is not aware of any transaction involving Ms. Crawford requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Additional information about Ms. Crawford is set forth below.
Linda Crawford, age 57, served as the chief executive officer of Helpshift, a digital customer support platform, from August 2017 to February 2020. She previously served as chief revenue and chief customer officer of Optimizely, Inc., a private company providing website and mobile testing and personalization, from January 2016 to February 2017. She previously served in several executive positions at Salesforce.com, Inc. (“Salesforce”) from 2006 to 2015, most recently as executive vice president and general manager, Sales Cloud, from 2012 to 2015 and as Senior Vice President Sales, Strategy and Productivity from 2008 to 2012. Prior to joining Salesforce, Ms. Crawford served as Vice President, Sales at Rivermine Software, Inc., a telecom expense management software platform, from 2004 to 2006 and held several executive positions at Siebel Systems, Inc.

In accordance with the Registrant’s compensation policy for non-employee directors, on April 1, 2021, Ms. Crawford will be granted a restricted stock unit award having a value equal to $137,500 based on the closing price per share of the Registrant’s common stock on March 30, 2021 (two business days before the grant date), which will vest and become exercisable on March 1, 2022, subject to Ms. Crawford’s continuous service through that date.
