Joint
Development and License Agreement
On
April 27, 2026, Kopin Corporation, entered into a Joint Development and License Agreement (the “JDA”) with Fabric AI, Inc.,
pursuant to which Kopin and Fabric AI, Inc. agreed to collaborate on the development and commercialization of Kopin’s interface
for GPU-to-GPU connectivity and will work together to develop a prototype and demonstration version of the Project Technology (as defined
below) in accordance with one or more statements of work or purchase orders (each, a “Development Plan”) agreed in writing
between the parties from time to time, which shall set out the scope, deliverables, timelines and other relevant terms of the applicable
development activities. Any data communications chip technology that is to be developed by either party in performance of any Development
Plan is herein referred to as the “Project Technology.”
Pursuant
to the JDA, Fabric AI Inc. has agreed to pay Kopin up to $15,000,000 for the development of the Project Technology through achievement
of at least one successful prototype demonstrations (a “Successful Demo”) in accordance with the Development Plan(s) and
the funding schedule agreed by the parties (the “Development Funds”). Fabric AI, Inc has agreed to issue an initial purchase
order of $5,000,000 within 10 business days after the date on which the JDA was entered into, and payable within ten business days of
Kopin’s receipt of such purchase order. Further, Fabric AI, Inc., agreed that it will ensure that at least $5,000,000 of funds
are available in a segregated account to cover Development Plan needs. Following this initial purchase order, Fabric AI Inc. will pay
Kopin the remaining Development Funds in installments in accordance with a time-based funding schedule agreed by the parties as part
of the applicable Development Plan. Following achievement of a Successful Demo, the parties agreed to negotiate in good faith for a period
of one year to agree upon a funding, development, manufacturing and commercialization plan for production deployment of the Project Technology,
as agreed in writing by the parties (the “Production Plan”), which is expected to include an additional payment by Fabric
AI, Inc. of approximately $15,000,000 to $25,000,000.
Pursuant
to the JDA, Kopin must (i) provide the Fabric AI, Inc. with periodic written reports not less than once per month concerning all material
activities undertaken in respect of the applicable Development Plan, (ii) keep Fabric AI, Inc. informed on a timely basis concerning
all material progress in the applicable Development Plan, and (iii) at Fabric AI, Inc.’s reasonable written request, from time
to time, provide Fabric AI, Inc. with information relating to the progress of the applicable Development Plan.
In
further consideration of Kopin’s contributions to the development of the Project Technology, Fabric AI, Inc. has agreed to issue
to Kopin shares of the Fabric AI Inc.’s Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Series J Preferred
Stock”), constituting 19.9% of the pro forma fully-diluted outstanding shares of Fabric AI Inc.’s common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), excluding shares of common stock underlying unexercised options, warrants, and other
common stock equivalents, , subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments upon the sale or issuance of Common Stock or common stock equivalents,
or the conversion or exercise of outstanding common stock equivalents as further described below.. Pursuant to the JDA, Fabric AI Inc.
agreed to take all actions necessary to give full force and effect to the adjustment provisions set forth in the Certificate of Designations
Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series J Certificate of Designations”), including through the issuance of additional
shares of Series J Preferred Stock to Kopin in such amounts as may be required to ensure that the number of shares of Series J Preferred
Stock issued to Kopin are convertible into the Maximum Issuance (as defined below) upon each Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion
(as each term is defined below), as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Series J Certificate of Designations.
The
number of Series J Conversion Shares initially may not exceed 291,049 (the “Maximum Issuance”); provided, however, that (1)
the sale and issuance, in one or more offerings, of any Common Stock or any securities entitling any person to acquire shares of Common
Stock (such issuance, a “Dilutive Issuance”) or (2) the issuance of Common Stock (a “Dilutive Conversion”) in
connection with any conversions or exercises of any common stock equivalents that are (x) outstanding as of April 27, 2026 or (y) approved
for grant by the Board on April 27, 2026, and not yet issued or outstanding as of such date (the “Existing Common Stock Equivalents”),
the Maximum Issuance (b) will be increased to equal the sum of (i) the Maximum Issuance immediately prior to the date of such Dilutive
Issuance or Dilutive Conversion, plus (ii) 0.1999 shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issued in connection with such
Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion, as the case may be. Once an adjustment to the Maximum Issuance has been made in respect of
(A) Dilutive Issuances, and (B) any exercises for cash of Existing Common Stock Equivalents, in an aggregate amount equal to $50 million,
no further adjustments will be made for any subsequent Dilutive Conversions or Dilutive Issuances.
The
Series J Preferred Stock entitles Kopin to dividends of 6% per annum accruing daily, which are payable semi-annually on each June 30
and December 31 (each, a “Dividend Payment Date”) during the period in which any shares of Series J Preferred Stock remain
outstanding. Dividends are payable in cash; provided, however, that Fabric AI, Inc. may, at its sole option, elect to pay any dividend
in kind by issuing to Kopin additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock having an aggregate stated value equal to the amount of the
dividend then due (each such payment, a “PIK Dividend”). If Fabric AI, Inc. elects to pay a PIK Dividend, the stated value
of the Series J Preferred Stock’s Series J Preferred Stock will be increased by the amount of such PIK Dividend, or Fabric AI,
Inc. will issue additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock to Kopin reflecting such PIK Dividend. If, on a Dividend Payment Date,
dividends on the Series J Preferred Stock have not been declared and paid in full, such unpaid dividends will continue to accrue daily
from and after the initial Dividend Payment Date and will compound on a semi-annual basis at the applicable rate for the Series J Preferred
Stock on each subsequent Dividend Payment Date until paid in full.
Pursuant
to the JDA, Fabric AI, Inc. and Kopin have agreed to jointly and equally own all right, title, and interest in the Project Technology
developed under the JDA, while Kopin retains sole ownership of pre-existing technology in its possession on the date of the JDA, and

WESTBOROUGH,
Mass. – April 28, 2026 - Kopin Corporation (NASDAQ: KOPN), a leading provider of application-specific optical systems and high-performance
microdisplays, including MicroLED displays, today announced a strategic collaboration with Fabric.AI (NASDAQ: SBLX), a leading developer
of fabless semiconductor solutions for AI infrastructure, to develop MicroLED-based optical interconnect technology that will be designed
to replace traditional copper wiring between GPUs and high-performance processors for smart data centers. Fabric.Ai has placed a $15M
purchase order with Kopin to fund the demonstration chipset.
The
jointly developed Neural I/o™ optical interconnect technology offering leverages Kopin’s proprietary MicroLED and patented
bi-directional NeuralDisplay™ architecture, repurposing programmable MicroLED pixels as ultra-high-speed optical transceivers capable
of moving data at ultra-high speeds while consuming significantly less power per bit than existing solutions.
Today’s
GPUs rely on dense copper wiring to communicate with each other, consuming enormous amounts of energy to maintain high-bandwidth data
transfer and to cool the system. As artificial intelligence continues to scale, traditional data-center architectures are approaching
their operational limits and are being criticized for their energy consumption and environmental impact. Data centers consume an outsized
portion of the world’s energy and are rapidly increasing. Neural I/o™ will be designed to achieve the same functional outcome
with a fraction of the power by using photons instead of electrons to move data, eliminating copper interconnects and expensive laser-based
systems entirely. The architecture uses each MicroLED pixel as a high-speed transmitter, sending digital bits at extremely fast rates
and enabling real-time GPU-to-GPU data exchange at massive scale.
“The
two biggest challenges facing virtually every at-scale AI deployment are power and bandwidth,” said Matt Kimball, Principal Analyst
at Moor Insights & Strategy. “The ability to enable chip-to-chip and system-to-system connectivity in a way that enables the
full throughput of the accelerator without taxing the power budget has been a persistent challenge. With its Neural I/o technology, built
on MicroLED technology, Kopin presents a unique, compelling value proposition.”
The
collaboration combines Kopin’s deep expertise in MicroLED materials, process development, and manufacturing with Fabric.AI’s
system-level design, marketing and sales focus being developed for AI factory infrastructure. Under the agreement between the companies,
Kopin owns 19.9% of Fabric.AI and will be the exclusive manufacturer of the Neural I/o™ chipsets.
Kopin
is the leading U.S.-based producer of MicroLED displays, giving the Company a uniquely strategic position as demand for domestically
sourced, high-performance MicroLED components accelerates. With more than 40 years of experience delivering advanced display technologies,
Kopin’s U.S. manufacturing capability provides partners with a secure, reliable, and scalable supply chain—an increasingly
critical advantage as MicroLEDs become foundational to next-generation defense and industrial displays, and now AI infrastructure systems.
The
Neural I/o™ product line has the potential to fundamentally reshape Kopin’s growth trajectory. By extending its MicroLED
and NeuralDisplay™ capabilities into AI infrastructure, Kopin gains access to the rapidly expanding AI hardware ecosystem —
an ecosystem that desperately needs the faster, lower-power performance that Kopin’s technology is expected to provide. This collaboration
with Fabric.AI leverages Kopin’s core capabilities into an enormous and fast-growing market.
Management
Commentary
Michael
Murray, Chief Executive Officer of Kopin, said: “The marriage of our MicroLED technology with our bi-directional NeuralDisplay™
architecture is exactly what the industry needs to break through current interconnect bottlenecks. With Kopin and Fabric.AI’s jointly
developed Neural I/o™ technology, we are creating a faster, more efficient optical interface that is expected to be uniquely capable
of supporting GPU-to-GPU communication at the massive scale this market requires — it’s the right technology at the right
moment to power the next wave of AI acceleration.”
“What
makes this opportunity particularly compelling for Kopin is the breadth of its application. Our MicroLED and NeuralDisplay capabilities,
originally developed for Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality applications in the defense and industrial markets, are now being extended
into one of the fastest-growing segments of the technology market. We believe this collaboration with Fabric.AI expands Kopin’s
market opportunity dramatically as a strategic enabler of the coming wave of AI infrastructure, positioning us to create significant
long-term value for our shareholders, said Murray.”
Josh
Silverman, Chief Executive Officer of Fabric.AI, added, “MicroLED-based interconnects are the leading edge in infrastructure for
AI data centers. Kopin’s bi-directional MicroLED technology is the foundation of our optical interconnect architecture. Their expertise
in MicroLED materials and fabrication, combined with our innovative system-level design for AI factories, creates a patent-protected
technology position that we believe will define the next generation of data-center communication. This is a true technology partnership
— Kopin brings the enabling hardware, and together we are building the infrastructure layer that AI factories will require to scale.”
