Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

After the close of business on July 22, 2021, AG Mortgage Investment Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) effected the previously announced 1-for-3 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). On July 21, 2021, the Company filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland two Articles of Amendment (the “Amendments”) to its charter that: (i) provided for a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 22, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), and (ii) provided for the par value of the Common Stock to be changed from $0.03 per share (as a result of the reverse stock split) back to $0.01 per share, effective at 5:01 p.m. Eastern Time on July 22, 2021. Fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be paid in cash based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the Effective Date after taking into account the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split affected all record holders of Common Stock uniformly and did not affect any record holder’s percentage ownership interest, except for de minimis changes as a result of the elimination of fractional shares. The Reverse Stock Split did not affect the number of the Company's authorized shares of Common Stock.

The Common Stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") at the opening of trading on July 23, 2021. The Common Stock continues to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “MITT” with a new CUSIP number: 001228 501.

The foregoing description of the Amendments does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendments, which are filed as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
