Dawn Ostroff, Nicole Seligman, and Rob Klieger are expected to step down over coming weeks, according to the report. Notably, Ostroff and Seligman are on a special independent board committee charged with pursuing the best possible deal for Paramount. Klieger is Redstone's longtime attorney. Controlling shareholder Shari Redstone has come under criticism for reportedly negotiating a transaction that reportedly stops short of a full sale or takeover: Recent reports suggest National Amusements (the Redstone family company controlling Paramount) is talking about selling itself to David Ellison's Skydance, after which Paramount might acquire Skydance for around $5B. The talks have drawn grumbling from economic holders of Paramount's nonvoting stock (PARA), who fret about dilution in a deal that rewards Shari Redstone at the expense of the nonvoting Class B holders, vs. a competing offer from Apollo Global Management (APO) to buy all of Paramount for $26B. Paramount's nonvoting Class B shares (PARA) sank 4.7% on the news, as did the voting Class A shares (PARAA) -4%.
