The lick is in a commonly used position for major pentatonic scales. The first note is the root E. Follow this with a slide up to the 3rd that establishes the chord harmony.

The chord is emphasised again with a bend up to the major 3rd again on the 3rd string. You could also slide up to this note.

The lick is finished by a descent back to the root E note that you can let ring out with a good dose of vibrato for emphasis and fun.
