EXPLANATORY NOTE
Flux Power Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9, 2020 (“Original Filing”) solely for the purpose of correcting an inadvertent error in the Original Filing which stated that the vesting schedule for the one-time retention Restricted Stock Units for “Retention Awards” was a “Three Year Cliff’ instead of a “Four Year Cliff.” This Amendment corrects such error by amending and restating Item 5.02 of the Original Filing. No other changes are being made to any other disclosure contained in the Original Filing. Accordingly, except as described above, this Amendment does not modify or update any of the other information set forth in the Original Filing.
