MENLO PARK, Calif. -- Dec. 12,
2001 -- Be Incorporated today announced it has reduced the size
of its board of directors from 7 to 3. Following the completion
of the sale of Be's intellectual property assets to Palm, Inc.,
the board of directors determined a smaller board is more appropriate
for guiding the company through the dissolution process, approved
by stockholders at the November 12, 2001 special meeting, and
the possible pursuit of potential legal claims still owned by
the company.
Effective December 10, 2001,
the new board seats are now held by two prior directors: Andrei
Manoliu and Barry Weinman; and a newly appointed director, P.C.
Berndt. Also, as part of the dissolution process, the company
today announces the departure of Mr. Berndt as Be's chief financial
officer.
