ITEM 5.02: DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
5.02(b) - On December 16, 2011, Mrs. Diane J. Hoskins resigned from the Board of Directors of WGL Holdings, Inc. Due to an unforeseen and significant increase in overseas travel obligations and client responsibilities related to her role as a principal of Gensler, Mrs. Hoskins determined that she would not be able to attend required board meetings nor contribute the time necessary to be actively involved on the board and its decision-making duties. In light of these circumstances, Mrs. Hoskins decided that it was in the best interests of the company and its shareholders to resign from the board of directors.
ITEM 8.01 – OTHER EVENTS
