On November 26, 2014, SemiLEDs Corporation issued a press release announcing its preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter and the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.

 

Such information is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

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

 

As previously disclosed, on August 20, 2014, Mr. Timothy Lin resigned as the Interim Chief Financial Officer of SemiLEDs Corporation.

 

On November 21, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Christopher Lee to serve as Chief Financial Officer on an interim basis.  Mr. Lee, 43, has served as the Company’s Controller since joining the Company in September 2014.  Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Lee was a partner of KEDP CPA Group from August 2009 to June 2011 and a self-employed accountant from July 2011 to August 2014.

 

Mr. Lee’s monthly base salary is 215,000 New Taiwan dollars (approximately $7,100). Mr. Lee is also eligible for a year-end bonus equivalent to two months of Mr. Lee’s then average base salary, subject to the achievement of performance targets as determined by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

 

There is no family relationship between Mr. Lee and any officer or director and, other than his compensation as an employee, no transaction that would require reporting pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K.
