Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) merged with its two Delaware subsidiaries, Magnitude, Inc. and Kiwibox Media, Inc. and changed its corporate name to Kiwibox.Com, Inc. The corporate name change and mergers are effective today, December 31, 2009. The mergers and name change were accomplished in compliance with the Delaware General Corporation Law which permits a corporate name change in connection with a merger of a subsidiary without obtaining shareholder approval. Management of the Company authorized the mergers to eliminate the expenses and costs associated with corporate and tax filings for the subsidiaries. In addition, the corporate name change was adopted to align the Company’s corporate name with its main business, the Kiwibox.Com website.
Registrant issued the Press Release, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, announcing the developments disclosed in this Form 8-K.
