Item 5.02.    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 20, 2014, The First Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that Daniel R. Daigneault, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First, N.A. (the “Bank”), has informed the Board of Directors of his intent to retire in early 2015. The Company also announced that the Board of Directors has named Tony C. McKim, currently Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer, as President & Chief Operating Officer of the Bank, effective June 1, 2014. Mr. McKim will eventually succeed Mr. Daigneault as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank.

Mr. McKim (47) joined the Company as Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and the Bank upon completion of the merger of FNB Bankshares (“FNB”) and its subsidiary into the Company and the Bank on January 14, 2005. Prior to the merger, Mr. McKim was President and Chief Executive Officer of FNB and its subsidiary. A graduate of the University of Maine in Orono, Mr. McKim is involved in several Hancock County associations, including Harbor House, The Maine Seacoast Mission, as well as Acadian Youth Sports. Mr. McKim and his family will relocate closer to the Company’s headquarters in Lincoln County at a future date to be determined.

The Company and Mr. Daigneault are currently discussing Mr. Daigneault’s transitional and post-retirement roles, as well as his continuing on as a Director of the Company and the Bank. A more detailed transition plan and schedule will be announced in the coming months as Mr. Daigneault’s specific retirement date as Chief Executive Officer is determined.
