CWA Union Notifies Nexstar of Plan to Undertake Independent Solicitation of Shareholders for Governance Reforms

● Calls for adoption of governance proposals to bring Nexstar in line with best practices

● Urges shareholders to take critical view of merger-driven strategy

Washington – The Communications Workers of America (CWA), a shareholder of Nexstar Media Group (Nasdaq: NXST) ("Nexstar" or the "Company"), today announced it has notified Nexstar of its intent to solicit shareholders in support of five governance proposals at the upcoming 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting").

<br> The National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians (NABET-CWA), which represents workers at Nexstar-owned television stations, is a long-term stakeholder in the Company and seeks to improve governance so local TV stations can survive and thrive in the future. NABET-CWA President Charlie Braico stated:

"Nexstar's board lacks independent leadership from Chair and CEO Perry Sook, contributing to a record of governance problems that are harmful to shareholders. Despite strong shareholder support for an independent board chair, the company has delayed implementation of this policy as a condition of its employment agreement with Sook and the board has not even appointed a lead independent director. Now company leadership is engaged in empire-building through the proposed TEGNA transaction to the detriment of shareholders. These management problems extend to labor relations as well – Nexstar has repeatedly engaged in frivolous appeals, wasting resources rather than complying with administrative and court decisions requiring it to recognize its workers' unions at multiple locations. By advancing an independent solicitation, we can ensure shareholders are afforded their right to a voice on the Company's governance shortcomings."

The proposals are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Resolved: Stockholders request the Board of Directors to take the steps to adopt a "proxy access" bylaw provision to require
that the Company include stockholder-nominated candidates in the Company's proxy materials for up to 20 percent of the seats
on the Board of Directors so long as the nominating stockholder (or a group of up to 20 stockholders) has beneficially owned at least
3 percent of Company's outstanding shares continuously for at least three years.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Resolved: Stockholders request that the Board of Directors take the necessary steps to amend the Company's certificate of incorporation
and bylaws as necessary to grant holders of at least 15 percent of outstanding common stock combined the power to call a special meeting
of stockholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Resolved: Stockholders request that the Board of Directors take the necessary steps to adopt a "poison pill" bylaw provision
to require that any rights plan be submitted to a stockholder vote within one year of being adopted, extended, or renewed by the Board
of Directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. Resolved: Stockholders request that the Board of Directors adopt a policy that the Board Chair shall be an independent director who
has not previously served as an executive officer of the Company. This policy should be implemented to the maximum extent feasible, and
in situations where the Board of Directors is unable to appoint an independent Board Chair, the Board of Directors shall appoint a lead
independent director who has not previously served as an executive officer of the Company. This policy should be implemented so as not
to violate any contractual obligations, with amendments to the Company's governing documents as needed. The policy should also specify
the process for selecting a new independent Chair if the current Chair ceases to be independent between annual meetings of shareholders.
Compliance with the policy may be excused if an independent director is not available or willing to serve as Board Chair.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. Resolved: Stockholders urge the Board of Directors to take the necessary steps to adopt a "major transactions stockholder approval"
amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation that requires the Company to obtain stockholder approval of any merger or
acquisition prior to closing, when the value of that transaction exceeds 20 percent of the Company's market capitalization.
