On March 20, 2019, Carl R. Schneider, Jr., a member of the board of directors of Investar Holding Corporation informed the Board that although he will continue to serve as a director until the Company's 2019 annual meeting of shareholders on May 22, 2019, he will not stand for re-election as a director at the Annual Meeting. Mr. Schneider's decision was driven by internal policies of his employer and was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company.
