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

 

(a)On April 29, 2013, John Backus submitted a letter addressed to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. (the “Company”), in which he informed the Company of his resignation as a director on the Board, effective immediately. A copy of Mr. Backus’ resignation letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Mr. Backus was a member of the Board Compensation Committee.

 

Mr. Backus stated in his resignation letter that his resignation was due to certain disagreements with the Company on matters relating to the following: (i) lack of visibility into the operations and management of the Company; (ii) lack of confidence in the strategic direction the Company is pursuing; (iii) the approach the Company has used to raise money; (iv) the Chief Executive Officer’s (“CEO”) failure to properly communicate with the Board; (v) lack of confidence in the CEO’s ability to execute a successful strategy; and (vi) the inability of certain members of the Board to obtain information about the performance of the Company. In his resignation letter, Mr. Backus also described several specific events related to the foregoing disagreements, and stated that the Company’s management and other Board members were informed of his concerns.

 

The Company disagrees with the characterizations and positions taken by Mr. Backus in the attached letter, including certain statements that the Company believes to be factually inaccurate. Pursuant to the requirements of Item 5.02 of Form 8-K, the Company has provided Mr. Backus with a copy of this Form 8-K concurrent with the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.
