On December 2, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of MediaCo

2022. Mr. Greene will also be appointed to the Audit Committee of the Board as of such date and shall serve as the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

as described in the Company’s proxy statement for its 2022 annual meeting of shareholders, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 22, 2022.
Mr. Greene has been the President and Chief Executive Officer of the
