Item 8.01.    OTHER EVENTS.

As previously disclosed, following the September 2016 resignation of an incumbent director, the Board of Directors of Taubman Centers, Inc. (the “Company”) currently consists of eight directors. The Company expects to replace that director, as it has done in the past, and the Board and its Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee have been in the process of conducting a search for a new director, in accordance with the Company’s previously stated goal of seeking to ensure the Board includes members with diverse backgrounds, qualifications, skills and experience, including appropriate expertise relevant to the Company's business. The Company previously outlined in the Company’s 2016 proxy statement examples of the kinds of qualities and experiences desired for the Board, and shareholders will have the opportunity to elect three directors to the Board at the 2017 Annual Meeting.
