December 10, 2023, Allison H. Abraham notified the Board of
Directors of Beyond (“the Board") of her decision to retire. As

Ms. Abraham said, “I thank the Board, management, and rest of
the Beyond family for their support over the years. It has been an

the Board will benefit from his leadership during this next phase
of growth.”
Mr. Lemonis, Chairman of Beyond, said, “On behalf of the Board,
I would like to thank Ms. Abraham for her years of invaluable
service to the Company. She has successfully guided the Company

Board and I remain committed to working with the management team to
execute on our long-term strategy to enhance value for our
shareholders.”
