Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or
Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain
Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On March 8, 2023, Ajit Shetty,
Ph.D. informed the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Agile
Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) that he would not stand for
re-election as a Class III director at the upcoming annual meeting
of stockholders of the Company for 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”). The
Company does not intend to fill Dr. Shetty’s seat on the Board and
therefore the size of the Board will be reduced to six directors
following the Annual Meeting. The Company expressed gratitude to
Dr. Shetty for his contributions to the Board and the Company. Dr.
Shetty’s departure is not related to any disagreement with the
Company or the Board regarding any matter related to the Company’s
operations, policies or practices. The Board is evaluating how it
intends to fill Dr. Shetty’s committee assignments.
