ITEM 8.01 Other Events.

On July 7, 2011, Weststar Financial Services Corporation (the “Company”) and G. Gordon Greenwood agreed to voluntarily dismiss their claims against each other as asserted in the matter of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as Receiver for The Bank of Asheville, and Weststar Financial Services Corporation v. G. Gordon Greenwood, File No. 1:11-cv-00103, currently pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, Asheville Division. The dismissal is “with prejudice,” meaning that neither the Company nor Mr. Greenwood may file suit against each other again on the same claims. The dismissal has no effect on the claims pending between the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as receiver for The Bank of Asheville, and Mr. Greenwood. Furthermore, the dismissal has no effect on any right of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to file claims against the Company at any time now or in the future.

Mr. Greenwood is the former president and chief executive officer of the Company and The Bank of Asheville. The Bank of Asheville was the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary until January 21, 2011, when the bank was closed by the North Carolina Office of the Commissioner of Banks and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation was named receiver. The litigation between the Company and Mr. Greenwood was based on certain actions allegedly taken by Mr. Greenwood during his time as president and chief executive officer of the Company and the bank. As noted above, the lawsuit will continue between the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and Mr. Greenwood.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
