(NYSE: TGNA) today announced that leading independent proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (\u201cISS\u201d) recommends that TEGNA shareholders vote on the GOLD proxy card \u201cFOR\u201d all 12 of TEGNA\u2019s director nominees at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 7, 2021.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nHoward Elias, Chairman of the Board, said, \u201cWe are pleased that ISS recommends that TEGNA shareholders support our highly qualified, diverse and engaged directors. ISS\u2019 support recognizes the Board\u2019s important role in actively overseeing the successful execution of TEGNA\u2019s value creation strategy and ensuring we continue to make progress advancing our ESG and DE&amp;I objectives. We encourage TEGNA shareholders to follow ISS\u2019 recommendation and vote for all of TEGNA\u2019s nominees on the gold proxy card.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn making its recommendation, ISS noted:\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\n\u201cGiven that the dissident&#8217;s primary demand is an operational review with an eye to improving performance when the company has already and is expected to continue posting median-beating results, it is difficult to see how the dissident has made a convincing case for change.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>\n\u201c\u2026 this is not a board that has been caught flatfooted or is reactive regarding issues of diversity and inclusion. The board&#8217;s makeup is diverse. The company hired a chief diversity officer in September 2020 who reports directly to CEO Lougee. The board&#8217;s committees all revised their charters before early December 2020 to publicly codify that each board committee member has diversity and inclusion oversight responsibilities.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\nWe encourage shareholders to vote to reelect TEGNA\u2019s highly qualified, engaged and diverse directors using the GOLD proxy card so that the Board and management team can continue to execute the company\u2019s strategy to maximize value for ALL shareholders. Discard any white proxy cards received.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nPlease visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tegnavalue.com%2F&amp;esheet=52416955&amp;newsitemid=20210422006126&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=TEGNAvalue.com&amp;index=1&amp;md5=17d2e36cf6077f6822d28c2526c87ae5\">TEGNAvalue.com<\/a> for additional materials about TEGNA\u2019s 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 7, 2021.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"bwalignc\" style=\"font-weight:normal\"><b>YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, NO MATTER HOW MANY SHARES YOU OWN<\/b><\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"bwtablemarginb bwblockalignl\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwtopsingle bwleftsingle bwrightsingle\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin bwalignc\">\nIf you have questions about how to vote your shares, please call the firm assisting us with the solicitation of proxies:\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\n\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin bwalignc\"><b>INNISFREE M&amp;A INCORPORATED<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\n\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwalignc\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin bwalignc\">\nShareholders may call:\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwalignc\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin bwalignc\"><b>(877) 687-1865 (toll-free from the U.S. and Canada), or<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwalignc\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin bwalignc\"><b>+1 (412) 232-3651 (from other countries)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\n\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwvertalignt bwpadl0 bwleftsingle bwrightsingle\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin bwalignc\">\nIMPORTANT NOTE: Please simply discard any White proxy cards sent to you by Standard General.
