A failure to vote on Proposal 3 has the same effect as a
vote “Against” Proposal 3.
December 18, 2019
Dear Energy Focus Stockholder:
The Annual Meeting of Energy Focus, Inc. (the “Company”), has been adjourned solely with respect to Proposal 3, a proposal to amend the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Company to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock, and the number of authorized shares of preferred stock of the Company and to increase the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, until January 15, 2020 at 9:00AM Eastern Time.
To the extent Proposal 3 is not approved, the Company’s outstanding subordinated convertible promissory notes will not convert into equity and will remain outstanding earning interest at 10% per annum. If the notes do not convert, $2,148,055 in principal and accrued interest would become due and payable, to the extent not already paid, on the December 31, 2021 maturity date of the notes, which could place significant financial strain on the Company.
It is very important that all stockholders have their voices heard. The Energy Focus Proxy Statement and voting ballot were sent to you in an earlier mailing but to date we have not received your vote instruction.
We urge you to please vote your Energy Focus shares today. You may
do so by contacting MacKenzie Partners toll-free at (800) 322-2885 or at
1-212-929-5500 (call collect). MacKenzie Partners has been engaged by Energy Focus to assist in gathering the votes at the Annual Meeting.
Please be advised that you do not need your proxy card to vote your shares. Simply call us today and we can take your vote over the telephone. You may also contact us with your voting instructions via email at: proxy@mackenziepartners.com.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
