BuzzFeed, Inc. (“BuzzFeed” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: BZFD)

Jonah Peretti, Founder and CEO of BuzzFeed, Inc. said, “Felicia
has been a key member of our executive team and an outstanding
contributor to the company as we’ve grown, adapted, become a public
company, and defined the digital media landscape. I want to thank
Felicia enormously for all that she’s done for BuzzFeed, and for
leaving us in the tremendously capable hands of Matt Omer.”
Marcela Martin, President of BuzzFeed Inc. said, “We are so
grateful to Felicia for her many contributions to BuzzFeed’s growth
and success over the years, and her ability to develop a successor
like Matt, who is so well suited and prepared to step into the CFO
role.”
