On March 29, 2016, VIEX Capital Advisors, LLC announced today that it has formally nominated 5 independent candidates: Richard Bloom, Brian Kelley, Bradley Radoff, Joshua Schechter, and Eric Singer for election to Support.com, Inc.'s board of directors at the Company's upcoming 2016 annual meeting of stockholders. In addition, VIEX Capital commented that over the past 6 months, it has made multiple attempts to reach an amicable resolution with the Board in order to avoid a potential costly and time consuming proxy contest. VIEX Capital continued that unfortunately, its efforts were met with defensive actions that can only be interpreted as an attempt by the incumbents to entrench themselves, including the unilateral adoption of the poison pill and amendments to the Company's Bylaws providing for extensive advance notice provisions for director nominations and business proposals.
