Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On June 14, 2011, Robert H. Gilliam, Jr. provided notice to the Board of Directors of Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”) that he intends to retire from his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Chief Executive Officer of the Company’s subsidiary, First National Bank (the “Bank”) on June 30, 2011. Mr. Gilliam will also resign from the Company’s and the Bank’s Boards of Directors on June 30, 2011.

As previously disclosed in a report on Form 8-K filed on January 18, 2011, in anticipation of Mr. Gilliam’s retirement in mid-year 2011, the Company’s and the Bank’s Boards of Directors selected Aubrey H. (Todd) Hall, III to succeed Mr. Gilliam. Effective July 1, 2011, Mr. Hall will assume the roles of President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank. Mr. Hall currently serves as Executive Vice President of the Company and President and Chief Operating Officer of the Bank and serves on both the Company’s and the Bank’s Boards of Directors.

In connection with his promotion to President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Company intends to enter into a new Change in Control Agreement with Mr. Hall, to be effective July 1, 2011. The new Change in Control Agreement is anticipated to be substantially similar to the Company’s Change in Control Agreement with Mr. Gilliam and will replace Mr. Hall’s existing Change in Control Agreement, which was entered into December 31, 2008. The Company will disclose the material terms of that agreement when it is entered into.
