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

 

(a) On May 2, 2017, at a properly called and noticed special meeting of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Rackwise, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), with quorum present, pursuant to the authority granted to the Board under Article Three, Section 3.3 of the Company’s Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), the Board removed Michael Feinberg as a member of the Board of Directors for cause for failure to meet the fiduciary obligations of a director of the Company.

 

Following such removal, the Board consists of these six directors: Guy Archbold, John Kyees, Sherman Henderson, Craig Whited, John Todd and Jay Schiffman. Mr. Archbold remains the Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and acting Chief Financial Officer of the Company and Chairman of the Board.

 

Item 5.03Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On May 2, 2017, at a properly called and noticed special meeting of the Board, pursuant to the authority granted to the Board under Article Twelve, Section 12.2, the Board approved Amendment No. 1 to the Bylaws (the “Bylaw Amendment”) to remove a provision from Article Three, Section 3.3 of the Bylaws, which stated that “The holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote may at any time peremptorily terminate the term of office of all or any of the directors by a vote at a meeting called for such purpose or by a written consent filed with the secretary or, in his absence, with any other officer.”

 

The Board approved the Bylaw Amendment to prevent any potential change in control or hostile takeover of the Company or other potential actions by certain stockholders of the Company, including by persons purporting to represent the Company that have made unauthorized filings with the SEC, that were deemed by the Board not in the best interests of the Company or its stockholders. The Board believes that the approval of the Bylaw Amendment is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to allow the Company’s stockholders, including minority stockholders, to vote on any potential change in control event or any other action by certain stockholders of the Company that would cause such change in control of the Company.

 

The Bylaw Amendment became effective as of February 2, 2017. The foregoing description of the Bylaw Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Bylaw Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
