in the Company&#146;s previously filed financial statements relating to periods

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Materiality is a core concept in the federal
securities laws and the regulatory scheme created by the Commission and the
staff and must ultimately guide the analysis here.&#160; SAB 99 is but one of the iterations on that
scheme and its application in this, or any instance, must be informed by the
developed law and lore.&#160; We believe that
the inclusion of financial statements and information beyond that which we
intend is not material and is not required by the Commission&#146;s rules&nbsp;and
published guidance and should not be required.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Key Definition</font></u><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">.&#160;
Although the term &#147;material&#148; is used frequently in the Securities and
Securities Exchange Acts, it is not defined in either statute; nor do the
Commission&#146;s rules&nbsp;provide a definition.&#160;
The closest to a useful working definition is in </font><i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-style:italic;">TSC
Industries v. Northway,</font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;"> 426 U.S. 438 (1976) where the Supreme Court
held that </font><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">a fact is material if there is a substantial likelihood that a
reasonable investor in making an investment decision would consider it as
having significantly altered the &#147;total mix&#148; of information available.&#160; It is this definition that, in the end,
guides and governs our analysis.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The essential question, thus, is whether the presentation of restated
financial statements or Selected Financial Data for periods before the fiscal
year ended June&nbsp;30, 2008 <i>significantly alters the
total mix of information available.</i></font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company&#146;s current analysis of the impact of the misstatements on the
Company&#146;s financial statements reflects that the misstatements in fiscal year

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

2007, the total amount of unauthorized transactions was approximately $3.158
million.&#160; In fiscal years 2008 through
2010, the total unauthorized transactions amounted to approximately $24
million.&#160; By comparison, the unauthorized
transactions in fiscal year 2007 were insignificant.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Moreover, approximately $[&#160; ]

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In the process of restating the financial statements for 2008 and 2009,
the Company is adjusting certain estimates and assumptions that also relate to
the fiscal year 2007 and 2006 financial statements.&#160; After incorporating these adjustments for
2007, in addition to the adjustments relating to the recording of the
unauthorized transactions as described in the preceding paragraph, cost of
goods sold would have been overstated by $[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;

As a result, income from operations as reported was overstated by
$[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; ].&#160; Taking into account a tax adjustment of

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;page-break-after:avoid;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Both SAB 99 and the Advisory Committee Report
drive home that even quantitatively significant misstatements may not be
material if they are not qualitatively significant.&#160; Indeed, SAB 99 itself makes the point that
the analysis should run in both directions, and that quantitatively significant
misstatements may not be material if they are not qualitatively significant.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;page-break-after:avoid;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Quantifying &#133; the magnitude of a misstatement
is only the beginning of an analysis of materiality; it cannot appropriately be
used as a substitute for a full analysis of all relevant considerations.&#160; Materiality concerns the significance of an
item to users of a registrant&#146;s financial statements.&#160; A matter is &#145;material&#146; if there is
substantial likelihood that a reasonable person would consider it important.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(8)&nbsp;In
SAB 99, the staff notes that &#147;a registrant and the auditors of its financial
statements should not assume that even small intentional misstatements in
financial statements, for example those pursuant to actions to &#145;manage&#146;
earnings, are immaterial&#148; and that &#147;[w]hile the intent of management does not
render a misstatement material, it may provide significant evidence of
materiality.&#148;&#160; Intentional misstatements,
therefore, are more likely to be material than unintentional
misstatements.&#160; It is notable that the
misstatements in the Company&#146;s financial statements were not intentionally
caused in an attempt to manipulate the Company&#146;s financial results.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">[the] one-directional interpretation is not consistent with the standard
established by the Supreme Court, which requires an assessment of the total mix

materiality of all errors, consideration should be given to both qualitative
and quantitative information that would be important to a reasonable investor .

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Advisory Committee and its Subcommittee III identified qualitative
factors potentially leading to a conclusion that even a large error is not material.(10)&nbsp;
Several of these qualitative factors strongly support the Company&#146;s belief that
the misstatements in the Company&#146;s financial statements were not material.</font></p>

the error a one-time item that does not alter investors&#146; perception of key
trends affecting the company?</font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#160; The misstatements have a single cause - the
unauthorized transactions.&#160;&#160; Although
these unauthorized transactions occurred over time and affected different
reporting periods, they do not obscure key trends affecting the Company.&#160; During both 2006 and 2007, a large majority
of the unauthorized transactions were already included in the income statement
as reported, mostly as either a reduction in net sales or as an increase in
cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses.&#160; The variance in net sales, net income and
earnings per share, each of which might be considered a &#145;key trend&#146;, as
reported and as corrected, is not significant.</font></p>

the errors occur in the distant past (e.g. more than 5 years ago) for which the
correction would not be useful to current investors?</font></i><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#160; We believe that restating the financial
statements before June&nbsp;30, 2008 would not provide financial information useful
to current investors.&#160; The Form&nbsp;10-K/A
for fiscal year 2009 will include two years of audited and restated audited
financial statements and unaudited restated quarterly financials.&#160; In September, the Company will file its Form&nbsp;10-K
for fiscal year ending on June&nbsp;30, 2010, giving investors three years of
audited financial statements and, as noted, more than would be required in a
registered securities offering.</font></p>

Commission, too, recognizes that one size does not fit all.&#160; The Commission&#146;s rules&nbsp;scale companies&#146;
disclosure requirements for both offerings and periodic reporting depending on
the size of the issuer.&#160; Koss Corporation
as a smaller reporting company should not be required to include financial

two years&#146; audited financial statements in a smaller reporting company&#146;s
filings and does not require them to include Regulation S-K, Items 301 and 302
Selected or Supplemental Financial Information disclosures in their
filings.&#160; To demand otherwise in the
restatements is neither mandated by the Commission&#146;s own rules&nbsp;nor, by
deduction from the Commission&#146;s considerations, needed in the interests of full
and fair disclosure, especially after the Company has withdrawn the misstated

Guidance is also instructive and that restating only the financial statements
from fiscal year 2008 is consistent with it.&#160;
In the Backdating Guidance, the staff provided illustrative guidance for
registrants correcting errors in accounting for stock option grants saying that
it would not raise further comment regarding the registrant&#146;s need to amend
prior Exchange Act filings and related MD&amp;A if the registrant provided
information consistent with the information that would be filed in an annual
report.&#160; That is precisely what we, a
smaller reporting company, intend to do.&#160;
Moreover, the Backdating Guidance recognizes that extended restatement
periods and refilings may be unduly burdensome to issuers and adversely affect
the ability of readers to understand the restatement.(13) (14)</font></p>

Restatements</font></u><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">.&#160; The
Commission and the staff recognize the desirability of limiting unnecessary
restatements.&#160; Perhaps the most explicit
statement in this regard is in the Advisory Committee Report that &#147;a company
should promptly correct and prominently disclose any accounting error unless
clearly insignificant,&#148; but that &#147;the correction and disclosure of any
accounting error should not automatically result in a financial restatement&#148;.&#160; The Advisory Committee then notes that &#147;prior

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(14)&nbsp;In
a recent telephone conversation, the staff mentioned that the Company may be
asked to file an amended Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 if
the staff determines that prior period financial statements were materially
misstated.&#160; We note that the Company has
already withdrawn that Form 10-K, and that requiring the Company to refile it
would be inconsistent with the Backdating Guidance and with the practice of
numerous companies that have recently corrected misstatements in previously
issued financial statements.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">[w]hile reducing errors in financial
reporting is the primary goal, it is also important to reduce the number of
restatements that do not provide important information to investors making
current investment decisions.&#160;
Restatements can be costly for companies and auditors, may reduce
confidence in reporting, and may create confusion that reduces the efficiency
of investor analysis.</font></p>

and restate its financial statements from fiscal year 2008.&#160; We expect to file our corrective disclosures
in the May-June&nbsp;timeframe.&#160; The
Company will then file its Form&nbsp;10-K for the year ending June&nbsp;30,
2010 in September&nbsp;2010.&#160; At that
point, investors will have access to three full years of audited financial
statements.&#160; We believe that this is the
information that would be material to any reasonable investor making a current
investment decision.</font></p>

misstatements be promptly disclosed and corrected.&#160; Since the discovery of the unauthorized
transactions, as information has become available, the Company has immediately
disclosed this information to the public.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">For example, in providing information
immediately after discovering the unauthorized transactions, the Company issued
press releases disclosing the unauthorized transactions and notifying the
public that its financial statements since 2005 could no longer be relied
upon.&#160; <i>See</i>
Current Reports on Form&nbsp;8-K filed on December&nbsp;24, 2009 and January&nbsp;4,
2009.&#160; As soon as the preliminary
estimates of the year-by-year amounts of the unauthorized transactions were
available, the Company issued a press release announcing the estimated amounts
of the unauthorized transactions for each fiscal year since 2005.&#160; <i>See</i> Current
Report on Form&nbsp;8-K filed on January&nbsp;11, 2010.&#160; Since the discovery of the unauthorized
transactions, the Company has cooperated extensively with the SEC and law
enforcement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The seriousness of the unauthorized
transactions is public knowledge.&#160; As
reflected in the Quantitative Analysis, the amounts of the unauthorized
transactions increased yearly making the amounts in earlier years less
meaningful to any investment decision-making.&#160;
As stated above, out of the total amount of unauthorized transactions of
$31.5 million that occurred since fiscal year 2005, only $3.2 million occurred
in 2007 and $2.2 million occurred in 2006.&#160;
Requiring restatements prior to 2008 adds nothing useful to the state of
knowledge.&#160; Indeed and candidly, the
focus on restatements of these earlier periods is misplaced; and the Company&#146;s
attention and disclosure obligations are better focused on internal controls,
as we are doing.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Costs of Restatements</font></u><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">.&#160; Requiring the restatement of multiple prior
years of financial statements would impose a costly burden on the Company.&#160; The Company and our shareholders are best
served by focusing on current business operations, internal controls and
matters going forward instead of working on restatements that will have
marginal utility, if any, to investors.</font></p>
