Item 5.02(b). Departure of Director
On March 25, 2019, Larry K. Harvey notified AGNC Investment Corp. (the "Company") of his decision not to stand for re-election to the Company's Board of Directors at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held on April 18, 2019 (the "Annual Meeting"). Mr. Harvey's decision not to stand for re-election is not the result of a disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
In light of this decision, the Board has decreased the size of the Board from six to five members, effective upon the certification of the results of the vote at the Company's Annual Meeting, and therefore no other nominee for election at the Annual Meeting will be named in Mr. Harvey's place.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
