      &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;Effective August&#160;16, 2010,&#160;&#160;the Board of Directors of
      CopyTele, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) appointed Mr.&#160;Lewis Titterton to serve on
      the Company&#8217;s Board of Directors until the Company&#8217;s next annual meeting
      of stockholders.&#160;&#160;While we are not subject to the listing requirements
      of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system
      which require that our Board be comprised of a majority of &#8220;independent&#8221;
      directors, Mr. Titterton, along with our current director, George P.
      Larounis, currently meets the definition of &#8220;independent&#8221; as promulgated
      by the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market.&#160;&#160;Mr. Titterton
      has not been appointed to any committee of the Board of Directors at
      this time.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;There are no arrangements or understandings between
      Mr.&#160;Titterton&#160;and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed as
      a director of the Company.&#160;&#160;Mr.&#160;Titterton is not party to any
      transactions with the Company pursuant to Item&#160;404(a) of
      Regulation&#160;S-K.&#160;&#160;&#160;However, in connection with the Company&#8217;s decision to
      appoint Mr. Titterton as a director, Mr. Titterton resigned as a member
      of The Committee to Enhance CopyTele.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;Mr.&#160;Titterton has determined, at this time, to forego any
      stock options that he is entitled to receive as a non-employee director.
