Together with the EM camera, Nikon launched a set of 8 small, light weight and more affordable lenses.
To distinguish from the more professional 'Nikkor' lenses, they were called 'Series E'. However, they feature the same F-mount bayonet and can be used on all AI-spec Nikon cameras.
The original version lenses looked pretty cheap, lacked a metal lens mounting ring and had a more rudimentary finish of the focusing and aperture ring.
Nikon would not be Nikon if it didn't foresee system accessories even for their junior camera.
Besides lenses (Series E and all other AI Nikkor lenses, except for the most recent G lenses), cases and an eyepiece adapter, a dedicated flashlight and motor drive were offered.
