(b) On May 6, 2020, James Gevarges notified the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Flux Power Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) of his resignation as a director of the Board of the Company effective immediately. Mr. Gevarges’ resignation was not due to a disagreement with the Company, its operations, policies, or practices but due to personal matters.

In addition, Mr. Cosentino was appointed as a member of the Company’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Mr. Cosentino will serve as the chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

The Board has determined that Mr. Cosentino satisfies the definition of “independent director” and the requirements for service on the Board’s Audit, Nominating and Corporate Governance, and Compensation Committees under the NASDAQ listing standards.

 

In connection with Mr. Cosentino’s appointment as a director of the Company, he will enter into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement. Except as disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K, there are no arrangements or understandings with any other person pursuant to which Mr. Cosentino was appointed as a director of the Company. There are also no family relationships between Mr. Cosentino and any of the Company’s directors or executive officers. Except as disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K, Mr. Cosentino has no direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

 

Mr. Cosentino will be eligible to receive the same compensation pursuant to the outside director compensation package approved by the Board in December 2019 upon recommendation by the Company’s Compensation Committee, which is in accordance with the Company’s standard arrangements for non-employee directors. Effective upon Mr. Cosentino appointment, he was awarded non-qualified stock options to purchase 3,480 shares of common stock under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, which vests over a two year period in quarterly installments.
