ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.
 
At the 2012 Annual Meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Geeknet, Inc. (the “Company”) held on May 10, 2012, the stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Stock Plan”) solely to change the calculation of restricted stock units.

In addition, the stockholders approved the creation of an employee stock purchase plan (the “ESPP”). Under the ESPP, 100,000 shares of Company common stock are authorized for purchase, subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations, stock dividends and similar capital reorganizations. Employees of the Company (including the Company’s named executive officers) are eligible to participate in the ESPP. Offers of shares to Company employees under the ESPP will be made at the direction of the Company’s Compensation Committee. Company shares may be offered for purchase at not less than the lesser of 95% of fair market value at the grant date of the purchase right or the last date of the ESPP offering. No employee is permitted to purchase shares of Company common stock through the ESPP with a value of more than $25,000 in any single calendar year.
 
The amendments to the Stock Plan and the ESPP, are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
