Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
(e) On January 24, 2017, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of AGNC Investment Corp. (the “Company”) approved the AGNC Mortgage Management, LLC Performance Incentive Plan - MTGE (the “PIP”) for adoption by AGNC Mortgage Management, LLC (“AMM”), a subsidiary of the Company and the parent company of the external manager of MTGE Investment Corp. (“MTGE”). The PIP will be a component of the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program and is intended to incentivize those employees or other service providers who are engaged in activities related to MTGE, including the Company’s named executive officers.
Employees and other service providers of the Company, AMM and their respective affiliates will be eligible to participate in the PIP. The Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) will administer the PIP and may grant incentive awards to eligible participants that will generally vest over time pursuant to vesting conditions determined by the Compensation Committee. Upon vesting, incentive awards may be paid in shares of MTGE common stock or cash. To establish the reserve of shares of MTGE common stock under the PIP, AMM will create a trust that will from time to time hold shares of MTGE common stock purchased on the open market.
The description above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the PIP, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated into this Item 5.02 by reference.
