Stockholders’ Equity and Stock-Based Compensation | 8. Stockholders’ Equity and Stock-Based Compensation Sale of Treasury Stock: During the year ended December 25, 2021, the Company sold 3,096,697 shares of its common stock for approximately $21.0 million, net of offering expenses, through the sale of shares under its At The Market Offering Agreement, dated December 14, 2018. Commissions paid were approximately $650,000. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from sales made under the ATM offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Registered Sale of Equity Securities In the first fiscal quarter of 2021, we sold 2,404,362 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $16 million (average of $6.66 per share), before deducting broker expenses paid by us of $0.5 million and in the second fiscal quarter of 2021, we sold 92,335 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $0.8 million (average of $6.74 per share), before deducting broker expenses paid by us of $0.1 million pursuant to the Company’s At-The-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement (“ATM Agreement”) dated as of February 8, 2019. The ATM Agreement dated as of February 8, 2019 has since terminated pursuant to its terms as a result of the sale of all the shares subject to such agreement. On March 5, 2021, the Company entered into a new At-The-Market Offering Sales Agreement (the “Current ATM Agreement”) under which we may sell up to $50 million of our common stock. In third fiscal quarter of 2021, we sold 600,000 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $4.8 million (average of $8.06 per share), before deducting broker expenses paid by us of $0.1 million under the Current ATM Agreement. The net proceeds from the sale of common shares were used for general corporate purposes, including working capital. We have available $44.3 million for sale of common stock under the Current ATM Agreement. On March 15, 2019, the Company sold 7.3 million shares of registered common stock for gross proceeds of $8.0 million ($1.10 per share), before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses paid by the Company of $0.7 million. This represented approximately 8.9% of Kopin’s total outstanding shares of common stock as of the date of purchase. The net proceeds from the offering were used for general corporate purposes, including working capital. On April 10, 2019, the Company sold 0.7 million shares of registered common stock for gross proceeds of $0.8 million ($1.10 per share), before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses paid by the Company of less than $0.1 million, pursuant to the partial exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option in connection with its March 15, 2019 public offering. This represented approximately 0.8% of Kopin’s total outstanding shares of common stock as of the date of purchase. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Restricted Stock Awards In 2020, the Company adopted a 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (“2020 Equity Plan”) which authorized the issuance of shares of common stock to employees, non-employees, and the Board. The 2020 Equity Plan was a successor to the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (“2010 Equity Plan”). The number of shares authorized under the 2020 Equity Plan was 4,000,000 shares of Company Stock. In addition, shares of the Company Stock underlying any outstanding award granted under the 2010 Equity Plan that expires, or is terminated, surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of such shares shall be available for the award of new Grants under this Plan. As of December 25, 2021, the Company has approximately 2.4 million shares of common stock authorized and available for issuance under the Company’s 2020 Equity Plan. The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is generally the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The non-vested restricted common stock awards require the employee to fulfill certain obligations, including remaining employed by the Company for periods ranging from one to five years (the vesting period) and in certain cases also require meeting either performance criteria or the Company’s stock achieving a certain price. For non-vested restricted common stock awards that solely require the recipient to remain employed with the Company, the stock compensation expense is amortized over the anticipated service period. For non-vested restricted common stock awards that require the achievement of performance criteria, the Company reviews the probability of achieving the performance goals on a periodic basis. If the Company determines that it is probable that the performance criteria will be achieved, the amount of compensation cost derived for the performance goal is amortized over the anticipated service period. If the performance criteria are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed. Schedule of Non-vested Restricted Stock Activity

On December 31, 2020 (fiscal year 2021), the Company amended the employment agreement with our CEO Dr. John Fan to expire on December 24, 2022 and as part of the amendment issued five tranches of 188,000 shares of restricted stock grants. The grants would vest upon the achievement of the Company’s stock price reaching certain levels for 20 consecutive trading day period following the grant date. The Company used a Monte Carlo model to determine the estimated fair value of the awards. Total compensation expense resulting from the awards is approximately $2.1 million. The Company’s stock price met the required levels in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 and the total stock compensation expense was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. All of the grants are subject to certain acceleration events and terminate on December 24, 2022. The following table describes inputs used to calculate fair value of the restricted stock grants: Schedule of Share-based Payment Award, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Valuation Assumptions
