EXPLANATORY NOTE
 

 
Rackspace Hosting, Inc. is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amended Report”) to amend its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the Commission on February 26, 2010 (the “Original Report”). The purpose of this Amended Report is solely to (i) indicate incorporation by reference for all of the documents set forth on the Exhibit list set forth in the Original Report; and (ii) indicate that confidential treatment has been requested for portions of Exhibit 10.39 and Exhibit 10.43, which was inadvertently excluded in the Original Report.
 
As required by Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the complete text of Item 15 has been set forth in this Amendment No. 1, including those portions that have not been modified from the Original Report. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15, this Amendment No. 1 contains new certifications by our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, filed as exhibits hereto, except that the certifications relating to financial statements have been omitted since the Amended Report does not contain financial statements and the certification relating to disclosure pursuant to Item 307 or 308 of Regulation S-K have been omitted since the Amended Report does not contain such disclosure. Further, because this Amendment No. 1 includes no financial statements, we are not including certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
 
Except as set forth above, we have not modified or updated disclosures presented in the Original Report to reflect events or developments that have occurred after the date of the Original Report. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original Report have not been revised to reflect events, results, or developments that have occurred or facts that have become known to us after the date of the Original Report (other than as discussed above), and such forward-looking statements should be read in their historical context. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Original Report.
