SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Visual Network Design, Inc., (OTCQB VNDI) a Nevada corporation (the "Company") announced today that it completed a reverse merger on September 21, 2011, in which Visual Network Design, Inc., a software development and marketing company incorporated in Delaware dba Rackwise ("Rackwise") became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Shares of the Company are eligible for quotation under the symbol "VNDI" in the Over-the-Counter Market.

The Company, now headquartered in San Francisco, California, will continue the business of Rackwise under a new management team consisting of certain executive officers who are serving in similar capacities for Rackwise and a five member board of directors consisting of two present Rackwise directors, two independent directors and an incumbent director of the Company.

Rackwise products manage and correlate the physical attributes and connectivity of the far-reaching and complicated computer equipment of over 130 customer data centers worldwide. Within the data center industry, Rackwise provides a complete set of industry unique solutions that have been previously unavailable relative to all physical aspects of the data center by providing reporting on critical present day issues of power consumption, power efficiency, carbon footprint, green grid, and density requirements. This reporting allows customers to plan data center expansions and reductions as well as equipment usage more effectively and results in significant economic savings for the customer. Rackwise provides the next level of data center management known as "data center intelligence". "Data center intelligence" involves powerful capacity management and planning tools correlating physical information with costing metrics while providing needed financial analysis, cost savings, and "green" data center metrics for Rackwise's customers.

In connection with the merger, the pre-merger stockholders of Rackwise will receive in exchange for the shares of Rackwise common stock owned by such stockholders, approximately 60,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock and warrants of the Company, exercisable for a period of five years, to purchase approximately 30,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.625 per share.

Concurrently with the closing of the merger, the Company completed an initial closing of 12,547,757 units in a private offering, at a price of $0.25 per unit.

The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at a purchase price of $0.625 per full share of the Company's common stock. The offering was made on an "all or nothing" basis with respect to a minimum of 12,000,000 units and on a "best efforts" basis with respect to a maximum of 20,000,000 units. In addition, in the event the maximum number of units is sold, the placement agent and the Company have the option to offer an additional 4,000,000 units.
