        Diamond Sea Glaze Licensed by Smart Glass Company
            Research Frontiers to Manufacture and Sell
                     SPD-Smart Marine Products

Langley, British Columbia and Woodbury, New York -December 14, 2010.
Diamond Sea-Glaze Manufacturing Ltd. (DSG) and Research Frontiers Inc.
jointly announced to the yacht industry today that DSG has become
licensed to make SPD-Smart marine windows and other products
worldwide. When Research Frontiers' patented SPD-Smart light-control
technology is used in yacht windows and other products, users can
instantly and precisely control and "tune" the amount of light, glare
and heat coming through their windows, while preserving their view.

The non-exclusive worldwide license provides for a 15% royalty to
Research Frontiers on sales of licensed SPD-Smart products including
windows, hatches, doors and partitions. The minimum annual royalties
and other license terms were not disclosed.

"Diamond Sea Glaze's marine glazings are used throughout the world on
boats ranging from government and commercial vessels, to pleasure boats
and yachts," said Dave Bockhold, CEO of DSG. "Many of our customers are
now asking for products that provide advanced lightcontrol,and we have been
working with a major yacht manufacturer as our first launch customer for
SPD-Smart windows. Our evaluation indicates that SPD-Smart technology can
exceed the demanding needs of our customers due to its extraordinary ability
to quickly adjust its tint to any desired level, including very dark states
that can exceed 99.5% light-blockage. We anticipate that marketing activities
with this new product will begin early in the second quarter of 2011 with
integration into our launch customer's megayacht product line later in
the year."

Joseph M. Harary, President and CEO of Research Frontiers Inc., noted:
"DSG is a world leader in the manufacturing of marine closures and glass
products, and we are very pleased they now will offer the world's highest-
performing dynamic glazing technology to their customers. SPD-Smart
technology is very well-suited for the marine environment. A typical yacht
can use as many as five different types of fixed-tint glass to achieve
privacy in the staterooms, preserving views in the living and dining rooms,
and heat blockage in the pilot rooms and other areas. Right now, naval
architects and yacht designers must compromise performance in each area through
use of conventional glass. However, with the introduction of SPD-SmartGlass
technology,performance and aesthetics can be maximized."

SPD-Smart technology offers the widest dynamic range of light control. It
also provides full-time protection from harmful UV radiation, as well as
high levels of heat control. This protects artwork, furnishings and the
interiors, passengers and crew of vessels. Also, because lighting
conditions and reflected glare off of the water is constantly changing as
boats move and change course, it is also important to have windows that
can dynamically manage these changing conditions to maximize passenger
comfort, control glare and preserve views. Only SPD-Smart technology can
provide this "real-time" solution due to its ability to react instantly.

SPD-Smart light-control film technology transforms widely used products -
windows, skylights, curtainwalls, partitions, sunroofs and more - into
products that allow users to instantly and precisely control the light,
glare and heat entering a building or vehicle. It is instantly tunable to
an infinite number of light transmission states regardless of window size,
and easily adapts to individual preferences using control devices ranging
from basic dimmer switches and photosensors to those that are integrated
into a building's or vehicle's intelligent control system.

These unequalled performance characteristics help optimize energy savings
and human comfort. SPD-Smart technology offers many other desired benefits
such as increased security, noise reduction, protection from harmful
ultraviolet light and the potential for aesthetically distinctive designs.
