Yahoo near naming Biondi, Chapple to board: source

By Anupreeta Das

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Yahoo Inc is in the process of approving the appointments of former Viacom Inc CEO Frank Biondi and former Nextel Partners CEO John Chapple to its board and is expected to name the appointees by Friday, a person familiar with the matter said on Tuesday.

The appointments are not yet final but likely, the source said.

Yahoo settled its proxy battle with Carl Icahn just days before its August 1 shareholder meeting, at which the activist investor had originally sought to replace the entire board with his nominees and oust Chief Executive Jerry Yang.
