LivePerson, Inc. (the “Company”) announced today that Ernest Cu has joined its Board of Directors (the “Board”), as a Class I Director, following the recommendation of the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Mr. Cu currently serves as the Executive Director, President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Globe Telecom, Inc., a leading telecommunications provider in the Philippines.

Mr. Cu will receive standard director fees and benefits, including an initial grant of equity under the Company’s 2019 Stock Incentive Plan. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Cu and any other persons or entities pursuant to which Mr. Cu was elected as a director. Mr. Cu is not a party to any transaction, or series of transactions, required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
