As to CEO Rawlinson, people had the same complaints about Mike George during his tenure.

QVC isn't in trouble because of the hosts.  It's in trouble due poor financial decisions and not realizing shopping habits had changed.

@qbetzforreal  Agree! Has nothing to do with hosts! RAWLISON did not move with the times. The digital times. Q got stuck in a rut of a very limiting appeal to older women. And the ship is sinking.

In a little recognized change, CEO Rawlinson has an amended Employment Agreement, effective April 10. 2026.  It can be reviewed in the 10-K/Annual Report filing.

The contract still expires December 31. 2027 (subject to 1 year automatic renewals), but now includes severance benefits for Change in Control.

Upon termination without cause following a Change in Corporate Control he will receive:

2.5X Annual Salary.  Annual Salary is currently $1.75 million

Pro Rated Bonus

COBRA for 1.5 years, premiums paid by QVC Group

CEO Rawlinson will definitely be the winner in the Chapter 11!  Congratulations to CEO Rawlinson and his employment attorney!

Salary: wowee wowee!

This is the epitome of corporate "greed" IMO. 

I understand whomever is representing him in contract negotiations will get the best deal possible for his/her client; however,this seems very brazen in view of his role in necessitating Chapter 11 for QVC.

But don't you know that Jane and Julia and Monifa caused $6.5 Billion in debt!

Laughing hysterically that some think that was the cause and problem.

I have to hand it to you my friend.  I read some of those comments and just can't bring myself to answer those that have no experience or knowledge of how public companies operate.  You are a rockstar!

Been watching since 2007, and whenever the Q is failing, management always makes changes with hosts.

Good products, good prices and good service would be a good

start.

Might not the 'without cause' item be subject to action...

The Employment Agreement also provides for "With Cause" termination compensation:  only 1.5X salary benefits!

"Cause" is defined as illegal activity,  embezzlement,  fraud, felony conviction,  etc.

"Pro rated bonus"???  For bankrupting a company?  He should owe the company money.   What a joke!

This is what a fabulous employment contract attorney can do for you.
