CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus contain some “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements concern possible or assumed future events, results and business outcomes. These statements often include words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “seek,” “will,” “may” or similar expressions. These statements are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry, as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances.

As you read and consider this prospectus, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. You should understand that these statements involve substantial risk and uncertainty and are not guarantees of future performance or results. They depend on many factors that are discussed further in the section of this prospectus entitled “Risk Factors,” including:

· the outcomes of our ongoing and future research and development activities, and those of others, relating to organic light emitting diode (OLED) technologies and materials;

· our ability to access future OLED technology developments of our academic and commercial research partners;

· the potential commercial applications of and future demand for our OLED technologies and materials, and of OLED products in general;

· our ability to form and continue strategic relationships with manufacturers of OLED products;

· successful commercialization of products incorporating our OLED technologies and materials by OLED manufacturers, and their continued willingness to utilize our OLED technologies and materials;

· the comparative advantages and disadvantages of our OLED technologies and materials versus competing technologies and materials currently on the market;

· the nature and potential advantages of any competing technologies that may be developed in the future;

· our ability to compete against third parties with resources greater than ours;

· our ability to maintain and improve our competitive position following the expiration of our fundamental OLED patents;

· the adequacy of protections afforded to us by the patents that we own or license and the cost to us of maintaining and enforcing those patents;

· our ability to obtain, expand and maintain patent protection in the future, and to protect our unpatentable intellectual property;

· our exposure to and ability to withstand third-party claims and challenges to our patents and other intellectual property rights;

· the payments that we expect to receive under our existing contracts with OLED manufacturers and the terms of contracts that we expect to enter into with OLED manufacturers in the future;

· our future capital requirements and our ability to obtain additional financing if and when needed;

· our future OLED technology licensing and OLED material revenues and results of operations; and

· general economic and market conditions.

Changes or developments in any of these areas could affect our financial results or results of operations, and could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by any forward-looking statements.

All forward looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus or the documents incorporated by reference, as the case may be. We do not undertake any duty to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this prospectus, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

OUR COMPANY

We are a leader in the research, development and commercialization of organic light emitting diode, or OLED, technologies and materials. OLEDs are thin, lightweight and power-efficient solid-state devices that emit light, making them highly suitable for use in full-color displays and as lighting products. OLED displays are capturing a growing share of the flat panel display market. We believe that this is because OLEDs offer potential advantages over competing display technologies with respect to power efficiency, contrast ratio, viewing angle, video response time and manufacturing cost. We also believe that OLED lighting products have the potential to replace many existing light sources in the future because of their high power efficiency, excellent color rendering index, low heat generation and novel form factor. Our technology lead ership and intellectual property position should enable us to share in the revenues from OLED displays and lighting products as they enter mainstream consumer and other markets.

Our primary business strategy is to further develop and license our proprietary OLED technologies to manufacturers of products for display applications, such as cell phones, MP3 players, laptop computers and televisions, and specialty and general lighting products. In support of this objective, we also develop new OLED materials and sell materials to those product manufacturers. Through our internal research and development efforts and our relationships with world-class partners such as Princeton University, the University of Southern California, the University of Michigan, Motorola, Inc. (Motorola) and PPG Industries, Inc., we have established a significant portfolio of proprietary OLED technologies and materials. We currently own, exclusively license or have the sole right to sublicense more than 1,000 patents issued and pending wor ldwide.

We sell our proprietary OLED materials to customers for evaluation and use in commercial OLED products.  A substantial portion of our commercial OLED material sales in 2009 were to Samsung Mobile Display Co., Ltd. (Samsung SMD).  In 2009, we also received royalties under our patent license agreement with Samsung SMD on account of its sales of active matrix OLED display products.

In 2009, we entered into a patent license agreement with Showa Denko K.K. for its manufacture of OLED lighting products by solution processing methods.  We previously entered into a patent license agreement for OLED lighting products with Konica Minolta Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary, and a cross license agreement with DuPont Displays, Inc. for its manufacture of solution-processed OLED display products using proprietary OLED materials obtained through us.  We continue to work with many other companies who are evaluating our OLED technologies and materials for possible use in commercial OLED display and lighting products.

Corporate Information

Our corporation was organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in April 1985. Our business was commenced in June 1994 by a company then known as Universal Display Corporation, which had been incorporated under the laws of the State of New Jersey. On June 22, 1995, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours merged into this New Jersey corporation. The surviving corporation in this merger became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours and changed its name to UDC, Inc. Simultaneously with the consummation of this merger, we changed our name to Universal Display Corporation. UDC, Inc. now functions as an operating subsidiary of ours and has overlapping officers and directors. In January 2008, we also formed a second wholly-owned subsidiary, Universal Display Corporation Hong Kong, Ltd.

Our principal executive offices are located at 375 Phillips Boulevard, Ewing, New Jersey 08618 and our telephone number is (609) 671-0980.  Our website is located at www.universaldisplay.com.  The information contained on our website is not a part of this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk.  Before purchasing our common stock, you should carefully consider the risks described in the SEC filings incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including, without limitation, the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.  You should not purchase our securities if you cannot afford the loss of your entire investment.

THE OFFERING

All 7,200 shares of our common stock being offered hereunder are being offered by Motorola.  We issued these shares to Motorola on March 9, 2010, under the terms of a License Agreement we entered into with Motorola in September 2000.  Under that agreement, Motorola granted us perpetual license rights to what are now 74 issued U.S. patents relating to Motorola’s OLED technologies, together with numerous foreign counterparts in various countries.

We are required under the License Agreement to pay Motorola annual royalties on gross revenues received by us on account of our sales of OLED products or components, or from our OLED technology licensees, whether or not these revenues relate specifically to inventions claimed in the patent rights licensed from Motorola. We have the option to pay these royalties to Motorola in either all cash or 50% cash and 50% shares of our common stock.  The royalty payment is due to Motorola within 90 days following the end of the calendar year to which the payment applies.

The royalty due to Motorola for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $162,558. We satisfied this royalty obligation by issuing 7,200 shares of our common stock to Motorola on March 9, 2010, and by paying Motorola $81,285 in cash on March 10, 2010. The number of shares of common stock used to pay the stock portion of the royalty was equal to approximately 50% of the total royalty due divided by the average daily closing price per share of our common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market over the 10 trading days ended two business days prior to the date of payment.

In connection with our execution of the License Agreement, in 2000 we issued to Motorola 200,000 shares of our common stock, 300,000 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and seven-year warrants to purchase an additional 150,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $21.60 per share. These warrants became exercisable on September 29, 2001, and expired unexercised on September 29, 2007. On September 29, 2004, all 300,000 shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 418,916 shares of our common stock, and Motorola has since sold all of these shares.

Motorola may sell the shares of common stock being offered hereunder in a secondary or “resale” offering.  Under the terms of our License Agreement with Motorola, we are contractually required to register these shares.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Motorola will receive the proceeds from the resale of the shares of common stock.  We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the shares of common stock by Motorola.

SELLING SHAREHOLDER

_____________

(1) Assumes the sale of all shares being offered by this prospectus.

(2) The percentage ownership for Motorola is based on 37,033,701 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 12, 2010.  In accordance with SEC rules, options to purchase shares of common stock that are exercisable as of March 12, 2010, or will become exercisable within 60 days thereafter, are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such options for the purpose of computing such person’s percentage ownership, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

(3) Motorola is a reporting company under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  As such, we are omitting information regarding the natural persons who exercise voting and dispositive power with respect to these shares.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling shareholder, including any donees, pledgees or other transferees who receive shares from the selling shareholder, may, from time to time, sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock on any market upon which the common stock may be quoted, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, at fixed prices that may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such market prices or at negotiated prices. The selling shareholder may sell the shares of common stock by various methods, including one or more of the following:

· block trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged by the selling shareholder will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as agent, but may purchase and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

· purchases by the broker or dealer as principal and resale by the broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;

· an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the exchange;

· ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

· negotiated transactions or otherwise, including an underwritten offering;

· market sales (both long and short to the extent permitted under the federal securities laws);

· in connection with short sales of the shares of common stock;

· in connection with the writing of non-traded and exchange-traded call options, in hedge transactions and in settlement of other transactions in standardized or over-the-counter options, if permitted under the securities laws; and

· a combination of any of these methods of sale.

In effecting sales, brokers and dealers engaged by the selling shareholder may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate.  Brokers or dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholder or, if any such broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of such shares, from such purchaser, in amounts to be negotiated.  These commissions or discounts may exceed those customary in the types of transactions involved.  Broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholder to sell a specified number of shares of common stock at a stipulated price per share, and, to the extent such broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for the selling shareholder, to purchase as principal any unsold shares of common stock at the price required to fulfill the broker dealer commitment to the s elling shareholder.  Broker-dealers who acquire shares of common stock as principal may thereafter resell such shares of common stock from time to time in transactions (which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above) at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to then-current market price or in negotiated transactions.  In connection with such resales, broker-dealers may pay to or receive from the purchasers of shares of common stock commissions as described above.  The selling shareholder may also sell the shares of common stock in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

The selling shareholder and any other person selling shares of common stock pursuant to this registration statement will be subject to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 rules include, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the shares of common stock by the selling shareholder.  In addition, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock being distributed for a period of up to five business days prior to the commencement of the distribution. This may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of the selling shareholder and any other person or entity selling sh ares of common stock pursuant to this registration statement to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.

The selling shareholder and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling shareholder in sales of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with those sales.  In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

From time to time, the selling shareholder may pledge its shares of common stock pursuant to the margin provisions of its customer agreements with its brokers.  Upon default by the selling shareholder, the broker may offer and sell such pledged shares of common stock from time to time.  Upon a sale of the shares of common stock, the selling shareholder intends to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by delivering a prospectus to each purchaser in the transaction.  We intend to file any amendments or other necessary documents in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that may be required in the event the selling shareholder defaults under any customer agreement with a broker.

- 7 -

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of common stock.  We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholder and related parties against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Brokerage commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares by the selling shareholder will be borne by the selling shareholder.  The selling shareholder may agree to indemnify brokers, dealers or agents that participate in sales by the selling shareholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 15.                                Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Chapter 17, Subchapter D of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988, as amended (the “PBCL”) contains provisions permitting indemnification of officers and directors of a business corporation in Pennsylvania.

Sections 1741 and 1742 of the PBCL provide that a business corporation may indemnify directors and officers against liabilities and expenses they may incur as such in connection with any threatened, pending or completed civil, administrative or investigative proceeding, provided that the particular person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  In general, the power to indemnify under these sections does not exist in the case of actions against a director or officer by or in the right of the corporation if the person otherwise entitled to indemnification shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless it is judicially determined that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for specified expenses.

Section 1743 of the PBCL provides that the corporation is required to indemnify directors and officers against expenses they may incur in defending actions against them in such capacities if they are successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of such actions.

Section 1746 of the PBCL grants a corporation broad authority to indemnify its directors and officers for liabilities and expenses incurred in such capacity, except in circumstances where the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness.

Section 1747 of the PBCL permits a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a representative of another corporation or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the person against such liability under Chapter 17, Subchapter D of the PBCL.

The registrant’s Bylaws provide a right to indemnification to the full extent permitted by law, for expenses (including attorneys’ fees), damages, punitive damages, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by any director or officer whether or not the indemnified liability arises or arose from any threatened, pending or completed proceeding by or in the right of the registrant (a derivative action) by reason of the fact that such director or officer is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the registrant or, at the request of the registrant, as a director, officer, partner, fiduciary or trustee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, unless the act or failure to act giving rise to the clai m for indemnification is financially determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness.  The Bylaws provide for the advancement of expenses to an indemnified party upon receipt of an undertaking by the party to repay those amounts if it is finally determined that the indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification.

II-1

The registrant’s Bylaws authorize the registrant to take steps to ensure that all persons entitled to indemnification are properly indemnified, including, if the Board of Directors so determines, by purchasing and maintaining appropriate insurance.

(B) Paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 (§239.13 of this chapter) or Form F-3 (§239.33 of this chapter) and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§230.424(b) of this chapter) that is part of the registration statement.

(C) provided further, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is for an offering of asset-backed securities on Form S-1 (§239.11 of this chapter) or Form S-3 (§239.13 of this chapter), and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment is provided pursuant to Item 1100(c) of Regulation AB ((§229.1100(c)).

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i)           If the registrant is relying on Rule 430B:

(A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is a part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is a part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or

(ii) If the registration is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statement relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first

use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) That, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
