Hilton Grand Vacations appoints Christine Duffy to board after David Sambur resigns
Director David Sambur resigned from the Hilton Grand Vacations board effective July 2, 2026, under the terms of a stockholders agreement with Apollo Investors, after Apollo's June 4, 2026 share sale reduced its board designees from two to one. The board immediately appointed Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line, to fill the vacancy, a change that replaces one director with another and carries no disclosed financial figures.
Key points
- David Sambur resigned from the board effective July 2, 2026; the filing says the resignation was not due to any disagreement with company operations, policies or practices.
- Apollo Investors' board designation rights fell from two to one following their June 4, 2026 underwritten public offering; Christine Cahill remains as the other designee.
- Christine Duffy will serve until the 2027 annual meeting, has no committee assignments yet, and will receive non-employee director compensation described in the March 17, 2026 proxy statement.
