Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On June 27, 2025, Lawrence Bohn notified the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of BigCommerce Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) of his intention to retire from the Board of Directors effective on July 1, 2025. Mr. Bohn’s resignation is not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices.
On June 30, 2025, following the recommendation of the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) of the Board, the Board extended an offer to Anil Kamath to serve as a director. Mr. Kamath promptly accepted this offer, and effective July 1, 2025, was appointed as a Class I director for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2027 or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. The Board also appointed Mr. Kamath to serve on the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board.
Mr. Kamath has a proven track record of driving growth and stakeholder value. From 2012 to 2025, he was a Fellow and Vice President of Technology at Adobe, responsible for data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence in the Adobe Experience Cloud. In 2002, he founded Efficient Frontier, a digital ad buying platform, where he served as Founding Chief Executive Officer until 2004, and then as Chief Technology Officer and board member until its acquisition by Adobe in 2012. He also founded eBoodle, an e-commerce company, in 1998, which was acquired by Shopzilla in 2000. Mr. Kamath received a B.Tech in Computer Science from the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay in 1989, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Stanford University in 1995. Mr. Kamath’s business leadership skills, experience with data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, and knowledge of the technology industry qualify him to serve on the Company’s Board.
