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

Alan D. Gold has notified American Assets Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) that, as of March 19, 2013, he has determined not to stand for re-election as a Director of the Company at the Company's 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders due to his desire to devote more of his time to other business obligations. Mr. Gold will continue to serve as a Director of the Company until our 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Gold's decision to not to stand for re-election was not due to any disagreement with the Company relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.

Pursuant to the bylaws of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) voted to decrease the size of the Board from seven to six members and to designate Duane A. Nelles as a member of the Company's Audit Committee, each effective as of our 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
