On November 21, 2025, Dr. Timothy Tomlinson, 75, submitted his resignation to the Board of Directors of VeriSign, Inc. (the “Company”), for personal reasons related to his family and other business interests.
The Board wishes to recognize Dr. Tomlinson’s long-standing contributions to the Company dating back to its founding and wishes him only the best in the future. Jim Bidzos, Founder, Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, said, “Dr. Tomlinson’s service to the Board since the Company’s founding in 1995 contributed substantially to the Company’s success including his Audit Committee service and leadership, which promoted a culture of compliance so important to our Company.”
Dr. Tomlinson’s retirement did not result from any disagreement with the Company concerning any matter relating to its operations, policies, or practice. In connection with Dr. Tomlinson’s retirement, the Board is expected to appoint a Lead Independent Director and decrease the size of the Board.
