Energy Focus, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 26, 2019 (the “February 26^th>8‑K”) in which it reported, among other things, that, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) had approved certain compensation amounts for the Company’s non-employee directors, including the then new directors, Jennifer Y. Cheng and Geraldine McManus. With respect to such compensation amounts, the February 26^th>8-K incorrectly stated that non-employee directors would each receive restricted stock units having an annual grant date value of $33,300 vesting over a one-year period, pro-rated for service of a partial term.
