SECTION 5.  CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
-----------------------------------------------

         Item 5.02.  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers, Appointment of
                     Certain  Officers, Compensatory  Arrangements  of  Certain
                     Officers.

         On  August  26,  2014,  Solar3D,  Inc.,  a  Delaware  corporation  (the
"Company"),  entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to its Restricted Stock
Grant Agreement (the "RSGA") with its Chief Executive Officer,  James B. Nelson,
originally  dated  September  23,  2013 and  amended on May 1, 2014,  having the
effect of reverting  back to the original  schedule for issuing shares earned by
Mr. Nelson and vested under the Agreement to within five (5) business days after
the last day of the month during which the restricted shares vest.

         The  Company  proposed  to Mr.  Nelson that the RSGA revert back to the
original  schedule for issuing  shares earned by Mr. Nelson under the RSGA based
on its  determination  that under the original RSGA the Company would  recognize
the compensation  expense in 2014 rather than in 2015. The Company believes that
this expense will be less under the original RSGA than under the first amendment
to the RSGA because the Company  believes its stock price will be higher in 2015
than in 2014.  There is no assurance  regarding the Company's share price at any
time.  Mr. Nelson  agreed to revert back to the original  terms of his RSGA even
though he will personally recognize income in 2014 rather than in 2015.

         A copy of the  Amendment  to the  Restricted  Stock Grant  Agreement is
attached to this Report as Exhibit 10.1.

                           a Delaware corporation, and James B. Nelson.
