# MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: 

The International Broadcasting Advisory Board (Board) will conduct a meeting closed to the public at the date and time listed above. Board Members (membership includes Chair Kenneth Jarin, Luis Botello, Jamie Fly, Jeffrey Gedmin, Michelle Giuda, Kathleen Matthews, Under Secretary Lee Satterfield (Secretary of State's Representative)), Chief Executive Officer of the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), the USAGM General Counsel and Acting Board Secretary to the Board, the Secretariat to the Board, and recording secretaries will attend the closed meeting. Certain USAGM staff members who may be called on to brief or support the Board also may attend.

The USAGM General Counsel and Acting Board Secretary has certified that, in his opinion, exemptions set forth in the Government in the Sunshine Act, in particular 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(2), (6), and (9)(B), permit closure of this meeting.

The entirety of the Board's membership approved the closing of this meeting.

The closed meeting will focus on discussing the development of internal rules and practices to govern Board processes and functions. This includes developing processes or rules relating to IBAB, USAGM, and the USAGM entities. Publicizing these deliberations would frustrate the implementation of the very items they will be proposing. [This related to (2) and (9).]

                        In the event that the time, date, or location of this meeting changes, IBAB will post an announcement of the change, along with the new time, date, and/or place of the meeting on its website at                         *https://www.ibab.gov.*

Although a separate federal entity, USAGM prepared this notice and will continue to support the Board in accordance with 22 U.S.C. 6205(g).
