Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 17, 2013, Oliver T. Carr, III tendered his resignation, effective immediately, as a director of WashingtonFirst Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary WashingtonFirst Bank (the “Bank”). Mr. Carr's decision to step down was not the result of any disagreement with the Company, the Company's management or the Board of Directors. Rather, Mr. Carr concluded that due to other professional demands he would not be able to devote sufficient time to the directorships. Mr. Carr was appointed to serve as a Group II director of the Bank and the Company following the acquisition of Alliance Bankshares Corporation in December 2012. Previously, Mr. Carr had served as a director of Alliance Bankshares Corporation since 2007.
