A.8 Explain any supplementary remuneration paid to directors as consideration for the services provided other than

those inherent to their position.

Table D.1 includes the remuneration received by non-executive directors who, however, perform additional

professional duties or activities, other than those required of a director. These benefits, which constitute a different

type of remuneration, normally consist of business or publishing strategical advisory work, consulting and

institutional relations.

A.9 Indicate any remuneration in the form of advances, credits and guarantees granted, indicating the type of

interest, its essential characteristics and the amounts possibly refunded, together with the obligations assumed on

their behalf by way of security.

There is no remuneration of this kind.

A.10 Explain the main characteristics of payments in kind.

Certain executive directors are covered by life insurance and health insurance policies, the cost of which depends on

the number of families considered to be beneficiaries. The total cost in this connection in 2015 amounted to 24

thousand euros, of which 15 thousand euros relate to the life insurance premiums as detailed in section D.a) iv of this

report, and 9 thousand euros to health insurance premiums.

A.11 Indicate the remuneration accrued by the director for payments made by the Company making contributions to

a third-party entity at which the director provides services, when the purpose of such payments is to remunerate the

director's services at the Company.

Not applicable.

A.12 Any other remuneration item other than the foregoing, whatever its nature or the Group company that pays it,

especially when it is considered to be a related-party transaction or its payment distorts the true and fair view of the

total remuneration accrued by the director.

Not applicable.

A.13 Explain the measures adopted by the Company in relation to the remuneration system to reduce exposure to

excessive risks and to adjust it to the Company's long-term targets, values and interests, which will include, where

appropriate, reference to: measures envisaged to guarantee that the remuneration policy is in line with the

Company's long-term results, measures that establish an adequate equilibrium between the fixed and variable

components of remuneration, measures adopted in relation with those personnel categories the professional

activities of which have a material effect on the entity's risk profile, collection formulas or clauses to be able to claim

the refund of the variable remuneration components based on the results when such components were paid in line

with certain data the inaccuracy of which was subsequently manifestly demonstrated, and measures envisaged to

avoid conflicts of interest, where appropriate.

In the opinion of Atresmedia Corporación's Board of Directors, the model in force to determine the variable portion

of directors' remuneration guarantees, by itself and without the need for additional precautions, procedures or

sureties, the non-existence of excessive risks, both due to the maximum possible amount of such remuneration and

to the methodology applied to calculate and pay it. It should be advised that no variable remuneration has an

uncontrolled or uncontrollable growth, since the variable portion is not related to the price of the share or to other

similar items, rather to the economic targets for each year, which are established based on the financial statements

prepared by the Board of Directors, audited by the Company's external auditor and approved by the General

Shareholders' Meeting.

Also, as already indicated, the contracts of executive directors include a qualification that variable remuneration will

not apply if the external auditors' report includes material reservations or qualifications. Such contracts also include

the commitment to return variable remuneration received if the bases used to calculate and settle it are inaccurate

for any management-related reason.

Lastly, variable remuneration will, in any case, be limited by a fixed remuneration percentage of the executive

directors, and such maximum predetermined limit remains unchanged, regardless of the economic results ultimately

obtained by the Company.
