<p style=' margin-bottom:0pt; margin-top:4.5pt; text-indent:0.34in;text-align:justify;'><font size=2>On March 31, 2006, Kopin Corporation (the "Registrant") entered into an amended and restated employment agreement (the "Agreement") with Dr.&nbsp;John C.C. Fan, pursuant to which the Registrant has agreed to employ Dr.&nbsp;Fan as President and Chief Executive Officer.  Dr.&nbsp;Fan's prior employment agreement with the Registrant expired in February 2006, and was renegotiated on the following terms:</font></p>

<p style=' margin-bottom:0pt; margin-top:4.5pt; text-indent:0.34in;text-align:justify;'><font size=2>The Agreement will terminate on December 31, 2010 and in the event Dr.&nbsp;Fan is terminated without cause or in the event of a change in control of the Registrant and Dr. Fan's position, compensation or responsibilities change, Dr.&nbsp;Fan and his spouse will receive post-retirement monthly supplemental health benefits for ten years for the difference between the cost of the coverage the Registrant provides and the benefits provided by the U.S. government, severance pay of $600,000 per year payable monthly for two years and Dr. Fan's unvested stock awards will immediately vest.  Furthermore, if the Registrant and Dr. Fan fail to extend or renew the Agreement, the Registrant and Dr.&nbsp;Fan will negotiate in good faith to implement a mutually agreeable and appropriate retirement or consulting arrangement for Dr. Fan.  The Agreement also contains covenants not to compete,
non-solicitation clauses and the rights of the Registrant to inventions made by Dr.&nbsp;Fan. </font></p>

<p style=' margin-bottom:0pt; margin-top:9pt; text-indent:0.34in;text-align:justify;'><font size=2>Dr.&nbsp;Fan's salary is to be determined each year by the Board of Directors of the Registrant.
