SUNNYVALE, Calif.-PalmSource Inc. said the chairman of its board of directors, Eric Benhamou, plans to resign in October.
He is expected, however, to remain chairman of the board for PalmOne. Benhamou has served on both boards since PalmSource was spun off from Palm Inc. last year.
“PalmSource and PalmOne have firmly established themselves as separate, publicly traded companies,” said Benhamou. “Their relationship has now fully transitioned to the scope and processes appropriate for two independent companies. Their boards, too, must evolve toward greater independence, consistent with prevailing governance practices.”
