Musk and Tesla have agreed to settle the charges against them without admitting or denying the SEC’s allegations. Among other relief, the settlements require that:
Musk will step down as Tesla’s Chairman and be replaced by an independent Chairman. Musk will be ineligible to be re-elected Chairman for three years;
Tesla will appoint a total of two new independent directors to its board;
Tesla will establish a new committee of independent directors and put in place additional controls and procedures to oversee Musk’s communications;
Musk and Tesla will each pay a separate $20 million penalty. The $40 million in penalties will be distributed to harmed investors under a court-approved process.
Musk’s actual settlement basically says that anything relating to the company or material to the company or shareholders has to go through the board first before the public, and that he has to step down within 45 days of the settlement (which was yesterday for him).
Still trying to find a copy of Tesla’s settlement.

Situations like this really highlight how awful people are at doing math with intuition. The average speeding ticket is a far more onerous punishment to nearly everyone else. That’s a pocket change fine and his board status isn't actually going to change either. The SEC reached a settlement more than Elon did.

Definitely. One side is a clear winner in this, and it’s not the feds. Barely a slap on the wrist.
