On April 24, 2017, Gabriel Brener, a director of Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. notified the board of directors of the company of his decision not to stand for reelection as a director nominee at the company's 2017 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Brener will continue to serve on the board through the end of his term, which will expire at the 2017 annual meeting. Mr. Brener's decision not to seek reelection was not the result of any disagreement with the company. The board has selected Nina C. Tassler as a nominee to the Board. Currently, Ms. Tassler serves as Advisor, former chairman of CBS Entertainment, a position she has held since stepping down as chairman of CBS Entertainment in September 2015.
