Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

Arlington Asset Investment Corp. (the “Company”) held its annual meeting of shareholders on June 2, 2010. At the annual meeting, the shareholders voted upon (i) the election of Eric F. Billings, Daniel J. Altobello, Peter A. Gallagher, Ralph S. Michael III, Wallace L. Timmeny and J. Rock Tonkel, Jr. to the Company’s Board of Directors for one-year terms to expire at the annual meeting of shareholders in 2011, (ii) a proposal to approve the Company’s Shareholder Rights Plan, which was adopted in an effort to protect against a possible limitation on the Company’s ability to use its net operating loss carryforwards, net capital loss carryforwards and built-in losses under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (iii) a proposal to approve the Arlington Asset Investment Corp. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) and (iv) a proposal to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2010.

The voting results relating to the matters voted on at the annual meeting, as tabulated by and received from the inspector of election for the annual meeting, indicate that the shareholders elected all six directors, approved the Shareholder Rights Plan and approved the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2010. 78.4% of the votes cast on the proposal to approve the Incentive Plan supported the proposal and were cast in favor of the Incentive Plan. However, the total votes cast on that proposal constituted 49.91% of the shares entitled to vote on the proposal. As a result, the number of votes cast on the proposal was below the number required for approval as set forth in Section 312 of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Listed Company Manual, which states that the proposal must be approved by a majority of votes cast on the proposal, provided that the total votes cast on the proposal represents over 50% in interest of all shares entitled to vote on the proposal.

The full results of the matters voted on at the annual meeting are set forth below:
