Capacity Expansion on Track. Automation of CyberDisplay Production Resulting in Significant Cost Reductions

ú At Kopin?s annual meeting yesterday, management said that while its HBT and CyberDisplay expansion programs are on
track, demand in both businesses continues to run well ahead of capacity.

ú Exiting 1999, Kopin was producing about 100K CyberDisplay units per month. Its production run rate is now 160K and the
company expects to be at 200K units/month by the end of June.

ú After the meeting, Kopin presented the first public demonstration of the automated machinery it has started to use for CyberDisplay production.

ú Although only the first phase of a more extensive automation program has been completed, automation is already
resulting in considerable savings. CyberDisplay could be at break even by Q3.

ú Kopin?s fundamentals and prospects continue to improve. We maintain our Strong Buy rating, and view the current
price drop as a buying opportunity.
