ITEM 5.02
DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS

On August 4, 2014 the board of directors (the “Board”) of Advanced Cannabis Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Mr. Michael Feinsod as a member of the Board and Executive Chairman of the Board.

There is no family relationship between Mr. Feinsod and any of our other officers and directors.  There are no understandings or arrangements between Mr. Feinsod and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Feinsod was appointed as director.  Set forth below is the biographical information on Mr. Feinsod required by Item 401 of Regulation S-K.

Michael Feinsod

Mr. Feinsod is the Managing Member of Infinity Capital, LLC, an investment management company he founded in 1999.  From 2006 through 2013, he served in various executive positions at Ameritrans Capital Corporation, a business development company.  Mr. Feinsod served as a director of Ameritrans Capital from December 2005 until July 2013 and served as a director of its subsidiary, Elk Associates Funding Corporation, from December 2005 until April 2013.  In April 2013, in connection with a settlement agreement, the United States Small Business Administration, was appointed as the receiver of Elk Associates Funding Corporation. Mr. Feinsod served as an investment analyst and portfolio manager at Mark Boyar & Company, Inc., a broker-dealer.  He is admitted to practice law in New York and served as an associate in the Corporate Law Department of Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP.  Mr. Feinsod holds a J.D. from Fordham University School of Law and a B.A. from George Washington University.
 
In consideration for serving as Executive Chairman of the Board and as a member of the Board and pursuant to the terms of the Executive of Board and Director Agreement between the Company and Mr. Feinsod dated August 4, 2014 (the “Feinsod Agreement”), the Board approved the issuance of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share  (the “Common Stock”) to Infinity Capital, LLC (an entity controlled by Mr. Feinsod) upon execution of the Feinsod Agreement.  The Board also approved the terms of the Feinsod Agreement that require: (i) the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Infinity Capital, LLC upon the uplisting of the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) the issuance of 150,000 shares of Common Stock to Infinity Capital, LLC on August 4, 2015 provided that Mr. Feinsod remains a member of the Board on that date, and (iii) the issuance of 150,000 shares of Common Stock to Infinity Capital, LLC on August 4, 2016 provided that Mr. Feinsod remains a member of the Board on that date.  In addition, the Feinsod Agreement requires the issuance of a number of shares of Common Stock to Infinity Capital, LLC equal to 10% of any new issuance not to exceed 600,000 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate during the time that Mr. Feinsod remains a member of the Board (the “New Issuance Allowance”).  Under the terms of the Feinsod Agreement, the New Issuance Allowance will not be triggered upon issuances relating to convertible securities existing as of the date hereof.  For illustrative purposes, if the Company issues 7,000,000 new shares of Common Stock, then the New Issuance Allowance issued to Infinity Capital, LLC would be capped at 600,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Feinsod Agreement.
 
The foregoing description of the principal terms of the Feinsod Agreement is a general description only, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Feinsod Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated herein by this reference.
