Amber, which has been pushing for a governance overhaul at Lagardere and has a 20% holding in the firm, last week teamed up with media group Vivendi (OTC:VIVHY), a 23.5% stakeholder, to demand representation on the board with four seats between them.

The activist fund put forward Joseph Oughourlian, its founder, as one of its three nominations to the board, according to the letter.

Lagardere could not immediately be reached for comment.
