REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Kopin Corporation
Taunton, Massachusetts
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kopin Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 27, 2008. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K at Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kopin Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 27, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 27, 2008, based on the criteria established inInternal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 10, 2009 (not included herein) expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

KOPIN CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fiscal Year
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in December. The fiscal years ended December 27, 2008, December 29, 2007 and December 30, 2006 each include 52 weeks and are referred to as fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, herein.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and Kowon Technology Co., Ltd. (Kowon), a majority owned (78%) subsidiary located in Korea. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The noncontrolling interest in earnings of Kowon is reflected separately in the consolidated statements of operations. Investment in business entities in which the Company does not have control, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies (generally 20-50 percent ownership interest in common stock), are accounted for by the equity method.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (SAB 104). SAB 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred and services rendered; (3) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company does not recognize revenue for products prior to customer acceptance unless it believes the product meets all customer specifications and the Company has a history of consistently achieving customer acceptance of the product. Provisions for product returns and allowances are recorded in the same period as the related revenues. The Company analyzes historical returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demand and acceptance of product when evaluating the adequacy of sales returns and other allowances. Certain product sales are made to distributors under agreements allowing for a limited right of return on unsold products. Sales to distributors are primarily made for sales to the distributor’s customers and not for their stocking of inventory. The Company delays revenue recognition for its estimate of distributor claims of right of return on unsold products based upon its historical experience with the Company’s products and specific analysis of amounts subject to return based upon discussions with the Company’s distributors or their customers.
The Company recognizes revenues from long-term research and development contracts on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting as work is performed, based upon the ratio of costs or hours already incurred to the estimated total cost of completion or hours of work to be performed. Revenue recognized at any point in time is limited to the amount funded by the U.S. government or contracting entity. The Company accounts for product development and research contracts that have established prices for distinct phases as if each phase were a separate contract. In some instances, the Company is contracted to create a deliverable which is anticipated to be qualified and go into full rate production stages. In those cases, the revenue recognition methodology will change from the percentage of completion method to the units-of-delivery method as new contracts are received after formal qualification has been completed. In certain instances qualification may be achieved and delivery of production units may commence however the Company’s customer may have either identified new issues to be resolved or wish to incorporate a newer display technology. In these circumstances new units delivered will continue to be accounted for under the units-of –delivery method.
The Company classifies amounts earned on contracts in progress that are in excess of amounts billed as unbilled receivables and classifies amounts received in excess of amounts earned as billings in excess of revenues earned. The Company invoices based on dates specified in the related agreement or in periodic installments based upon its invoicing cycle. The Company recognizes the entire amount of an estimated ultimate loss in its financial statements at the time the loss on a contract becomes known.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development expenses are incurred in support of internal display and III-V product development programs or programs funded by agencies or prime contractors of the U.S. government, the KoBrite joint venture and commercial partners. Research and development costs include staffing, purchases of materials and laboratory supplies, circuit design costs, fabrication and packaging of experimental display products, and overhead, and are expensed immediately.

Cash and Equivalents and Marketable Securities
The Company considers all highly liquid, short-term debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Marketable debt securities consist primarily of commercial paper, medium-term corporate notes, and United States government and agency backed securities. The Company classifies marketable debt securities included in “Marketable Securities” and the investment in Micrel in “Other Assets” as available-for-sale and accordingly carries them at fair value. The net unrealized holding gains (losses), recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), for available-for-sale marketable debt securities at December 27, 2008, December 29, 2007 and December 30, 2006, were $558,381, ($201,716) and ($1,099,762), respectively. The Company records the amortization of premium and accretion of discounts on marketable debt securities in the results of operations.
Investments in available-for-sale marketable debt securities are as follows at December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Amortized Cost | | Unrealized Gains | | Unrealized Losses | | Fair Value |
| | 2008 | | 2007 | | 2008 | | 2007 | | 2008 | | 2007 | | 2008 | | 2007 |
U.S. government and agency backed securities | | $ | 25,353,439 | | $ | 41,438,125 | | $ | 533,923 | | $ | 76,620 | | $ | — | | $ | — | | $ | 25,887,362 | | $ | 41,514,745 |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 41,508,161 | | $ | 62,757,972 | | $ | 558,381 | | $ | 76,620 | | $ | — | | $ | 278,335 | | $ | 42,066,542 | | $ | 62,556,257 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The contractual maturity of the Company’s marketable debt securities is as follows at December 27, 2008:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Less than One year | | One to Five years | | Greater than Five years | | Total |
U.S. government and agency backed securities | | $ | 4,110,540 | | $ | 21,776,822 | | $ | — | | $ | 25,887,362 |
Corporate debt | | | — | | | 6,450,930 | | | 9,728,250 | | | 16,179,180 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 4,110,540 | | $ | 28,227,752 | | $ | 9,728,250 | | $ | 42,066,542 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The Company uses the specific identification method as a basis for determining cost and calculating realized gains and losses. The gross gains and losses realized related to sales of marketable debt securities were not material during fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006.
Included in Other Income and Expense is an impairment charge on investments in corporate debt instruments of $1.3 million. The corporate debt consists of Floating Rate Notes with a maturity that is over multiple years but has interest rates which are reset every three months based on then current three month London Interbank Offering Rate (3 month Libor). The Company determines the fair market values of these corporate debt instruments through the use of a model which incorporates the 3 month Libor and the credit default swap rate of the issuer. After the fair market value of these corporate debt instruments is computed under this method it is compared to the bid and ask price spread of same or similar investments which are traded on several markets. The bid and ask prices for the corporate debt instruments are not the sole input in determining the fair market value of the instruments because the spreads between the bid and ask prices have been increasing, which indicates that they may not reflect an accurate measure of fair market value. The impairment of $1.3 million represents the difference between the acquisition cost of the corporate debt instrument and the computation of the fair market value of the investments for all corporate debt instruments whose acquisition cost has exceeded their computed fair market value for 12 months.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out or specific identification method) or market and consists of the following at December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007:
| | | | | | |
| | 2008 | | 2007 |
Raw materials | | $ | 7,679,199 | | $ | 9,463,478 |

| | | | | | |
| | $ | 13,269,486 | | $ | 16,732,060 |
| | | | | | |
Inventory on consignment at customer locations was $2.3 million and $3.7 million at December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively.

Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements and leased equipment are amortized over the shorter of the term of the lease or the useful life of the improvement or equipment. As discussed below, obligations for asset retirement are accrued at the time property, plant and equipment is initially purchased or as such obligations are generated from use.
Product Warranty
The Company generally sells products with a limited warranty of product quality and a limited indemnification of customers against intellectual property infringement claims related to the Company’s products. The Company accrues for known warranty and indemnification issues if a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated, and accrues for estimated incurred but unidentified issues based on historical activity. As of December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, the Company had warranty reserves of $1.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively. For the fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006 warranty expense was approximately $1.5 million, $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company recorded assets and asset retirement obligations (ARO) liabilities of $0.9 million and $0.8 million at December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively, which represents the legal obligations associated with retirement of their assets when the timing and/or method of settling the obligation are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. The Company also recorded accumulated depreciation charges of $0.5 million and $0.5 million, at December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively, which represents the cumulative amortization of the capitalized long-lived asset associated with this obligation. The Company estimated the ARO using a discounted cash flow model that considered the Company’s cost of capital as well as increases in costs prior to settlement of the obligations and considered the probability that performance would be required.

Income Taxes
The consolidated financial statements reflect provisions for federal, state, local and foreign income taxes. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The Company measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company provides valuation allowances if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
There are no known tax positions which are reasonably possible to change over the next twelve months necessitating a significant change in our unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company recognized interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Foreign Currency
Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. operations where the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar are translated from the functional currency into U.S. dollars at year end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses at average rates prevailing during the year. Resulting translation adjustments are accumulated as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. Transaction gains or losses are recognized in income or loss in the period in which they occur.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period less any unvested restricted shares. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated using weighted-average shares outstanding and contingently issuable shares, less weighted-average shares reacquired during the period. The net outstanding shares are adjusted for the dilutive effect of shares issuable upon the assumed conversion of the Company’s common stock equivalents, which consist of outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock units.
Weighted average common shares outstanding used to calculate earnings per share, is as follows:
| | | | | | |
| | 2008 | | 2007 | | 2006 |
Weighted average common shares outstanding—basic | | 67,876,385 | | 67,543,957 | | 68,064,262 |

Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company primarily invests its excess cash in government backed and corporate financial instruments management believes to be of high credit worthiness, which bear lower levels of relative credit risk. The Company relies on rating agencies to ascertain the credit worthiness of its marketable securities and, where applicable, guarantees by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company. The Company sells its products to customers worldwide and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains a reserve for potential credit losses.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial instruments consist of current assets (except inventories, income tax receivables and prepaid assets) and certain current liabilities. Current assets and current liabilities are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
Stock-Based Compensation
The fair value of an option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing. There were no stock options granted in fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006.
Comprehensive (Loss) Income
Comprehensive (loss) income is the total of net income (loss) and all other non-owner changes in equity including such items as unrealized holding gains (losses) on marketable equity and debt securities classified as available-for-sale and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Impairment Charge
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144,“Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company periodically reviews the carrying value of our long-lived assets to determine if facts and circumstances suggest that they may be impaired or that the amortization or depreciation period may need to be changed. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated identifiable undiscounted cash flows from such asset are less than its carrying value. For assets that are to be held and used, impairment is measured based upon the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. The carrying value of the Company’s long-lived assets was $19.4 million at December 27, 2008.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 157,“Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157) which enhances existing guidance for measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 on January 1, 2008, as required for its financial assets and financial liabilities. However, the FASB deferred the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year as it relates to fair value measurement requirements for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis. The adoption of SFAS 157 for the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements (See Note 4).
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,“The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 permits an entity to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. An entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Upfront costs and fees related to items for which the fair value option is elected shall be recognized in earnings as incurred and not deferred. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods with those financial years. At the effective date, an entity may elect the fair value option for eligible items that exist at that date. The entity shall report the effect of the first remeasurement to fair value as a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of its eligible items as of December 29, 2007.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,“Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The Company adopted SFAS 160 on December 28, 2008, the first day of its 2009 fiscal year and retrospectively applied the standard for all periods presented.
Accounting Pronouncements to be Adopted
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141(R),“Business Combinations” (SFAS 141(R)). SFAS 141(R) requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. It requires acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs that the acquirer expects but is not obligated to incur to be recognized separately from the acquisition. SFAS No. 141(R) modifies the criteria for the recognition of contingencies as of the acquisition date. It also provides guidance on subsequent accounting for acquired contingencies. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for business acquisitions for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. SFAS 141(R) will not impact the Company’s accounting for prior acquisitions.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,“Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”(SFAS 161).SFAS 161 amends FASB Statement No. 133 to require enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities thereby improving the transparency of financial reporting. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company does not currently hold any positions in derivative instruments or participate in hedging activities and thus does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have any impact on its results of operations or financial position.

Marketable Equity Security
As of December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, the Company held approximately 200,000 shares of Micrel common stock with an adjusted cost basis of approximately $1.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The adjusted cost basis reflects a $0.2 million and $0.1 million other-than-temporary charge to the statement of operations to reduce the carrying value to fair market value at December 27, 2008 and December 29, 2007, respectively. This investment is considered to be an available-for-sale security and, accordingly, the investment is carried on the consolidated statement of financial position at fair market value and unrealized gains and losses resulting from the difference between its adjusted cost and fair market value are recorded in other comprehensive income. In 2006, the Company sold 200,000 shares of Micrel common stock for approximately $3.0 million and recognized a gain of approximately $1.2 million, which is presented in the consolidated statement of operations.

sells raw substrates to KTC. Also, KTC manufactures products for the Company to sell to its customers. The Company is not required to provide additional financing to KTC. However, during 2008 KTC experienced liquidity issues and the Company loaned KTC $2.0 million. At December 27, 2008 the Company reviewed the collectability of the loan and recorded a loan loss reserve of $1.2 million. In addition, under EITF 98-13“Accounting by an Equity Method Investor for Investee Losses When the Investor Has Loans to and Investments in Other Securities of the Investee” the Company resumed the equity method of accounting and as a result recorded equity losses of $0.8 million in 2008.
As a result of the transactions between Kopin and KTC each party normally has accounts receivable and accounts payable from and to the other party. In 2008 the Company recorded $0.5 million of allowance for doubtful accounts representing the net difference between the amounts the Company was owed from KTC for trade accounts receivables and the amounts the Company owed KTC for trade accounts payables at December 27, 2008. The following is a summary of amounts recorded in our statement of operations for the fiscal years indicated for other than purchases and sales of products:

One of the Company’s Directors is chairman of KTC and owns approximately 1% of the outstanding common stock of KTC.
The Company has accumulated an approximate 28% interest in KoBrite at December 27, 2008. The Company accounts for its interest using the equity method and at December 27, 2008 the carrying value of the investment was $3.6 million. KoBrite’s results are recorded one quarter in arrears. For fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006 the Company recorded losses of $0.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, in equity losses in unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated statement of operations. Subsequent to December 27, 2008 KoBrite began the process of raising additional capital. In 2009, a current investor in KoBrite agreed to purchase equity shares from KoBrite. The share purchase is at KoBrite’s net book value. Accordingly, there is no impairment indicator. The Company has declined to participate, and if the sale of common stock is completed the Company’s ownership of KoBrite will decline to approximately 19%. In June 2008, one of the Company’s Directors, who is also the chairman of KTC, was elected to the Board of Directors of Bright LED, one of the principle investors of KoBrite.

4. | Fair Value Measurements |
On December 30, 2007, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157“Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Under SFAS 157 the fair value of investments are categorized by the method by which their fair value is computed. The three categories are defined as Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. An investment is categorized as Level 1 when its fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An investment is categorized as Level 2 if its fair market value is based on quoted market prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, based on observable inputs such as interest rates, yield curves, or derived from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. An investment is categorized as Level 3 if its fair value is based on assumptions developed by the Company about what a market participant would use in pricing the assets.
The following table details the fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial assets:

5. | Stockholders’ Equity and Stock-Based Compensation |
The Company had an ongoing authorization, as amended, through 2006 from the Board of Directors to repurchase the Company’s common stock in open market or negotiated transactions. As of December 27, 2008, the Company had repurchased 3,563,200 shares of its common stock for $14,275,139. In December 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an additional share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to purchase up to $15 million of its common stock.
The Company has stock-based awards outstanding under several plans. The Company’s 1992 Stock Option Plan (the 1992 Plan), which expired on December 31, 2001, permitted the granting of both nonqualified stock options and incentive stock options and authorized 15,000,000 shares of common stock (including shares issued upon exercise of options granted pursuant to the Company’s 1985 Stock Option Plan). In 2001, the Company adopted a 2001 Equity Incentive Plan (the Equity Plan) and a 2001 Supplemental Equity Plan (the Supplemental Plan). The Equity Plan was approved by shareholders and the Supplemental Plan was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Equity Plan, as amended, permits the granting of both nonqualified and incentive stock options and restricted stock awards. The Equity Plan authorized 5,350,000 shares of common stock, which may be issued to employees, non-employees, and members of the Board of Directors (the Board). The Supplemental Plan authorized 1,300,000 shares of common stock, which may be issued to employees and only permits the issuance of nonqualified stock options and restricted common stock awards. The option price of incentive stock options shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant, or in the case of certain incentive stock options, at 110% of the fair market value at the time of the grant. The option price of nonqualified stock options is determined by the Board or Compensation Committee. Options must be exercised within a ten-year period or sooner if so specified within the option agreement. The term and vesting period for restricted stock awards and options granted under the Equity Plan and the Supplemental Plan are determined by the Board’s compensation committee. Nonvested stock awards and options granted generally vest over either two or four year service periods, although the vesting of some awards may accelerate if certain conditions are met.
The Company has available approximately 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Company’s stock award plans.

No stock options were issued in 2008, 2007 or 2006. The intrinsic value of options exercised in 2008, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $7,000, $87,000 and $162,000, respectively.
Cash received from option exercises under all share-based payment arrangements was approximately $0.1 million and $0.3 million for fiscal years 2008 and 2007, respectively. No tax benefits were realized during this period due to the existence of tax net operating loss carryforwards.
In fiscal year 2008 the Company purchased and cancelled under a tender offer 197,218 stock options held by employees. Had these stock options not been purchased by the Company they may have resulted in excise taxes for the employees and reporting requirements for the Company under section 409 (A) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company paid approximately $180,000 for these stock options which represented the fair market value of the options as determined through the use of the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.
NonVested Restricted Common Stock
The Company has issued shares of nonvested restricted common stock to certain employees. Each award requires the employee to fulfill certain obligations, including remaining employed by the Company for one, two or four years (the vesting period) and in certain cases meeting performance criteria.

State operating losses must be offset against taxable income within 5 years of the incurrence of the losses. In 2007 approximately $33.0 million of state operating losses expired unused. The Company decreased its state tax rate from 6% for 2007 to 4% for 2008. The Company determines its domestic state tax rate by allocating its results of operations and other factors to the various states it has operations in and applying the state’s applicable tax rates.
Pretax foreign earnings (losses) were approximately $3,669,000, $1,946,000 and ($746,000) for the fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company has not received any remittance of any earnings from its foreign operations nor does it intend to in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, U.S. income taxes were not provided for approximately $10.9 million of undistributed earnings of the Company’s Korean subsidiary.
Deferred taxes are provided to recognize the effect of temporary differences between tax and financial reporting. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:

As of December 27, 2008, the Company has available for tax purposes federal net operating loss carryforwards (NOL) of $44.7 million expiring through 2026. The Company also has a state NOL of $27.2 million. As a result of recent tax legislation changes, the availability of the state NOL may be limited in future periods. The Company has not historically recorded, nor does it intend to record the tax benefits from stock awards until realized. Unrecorded benefits from stock awards approximated $14.5 million at each of the years ended 2008 and 2007. The Company has recognized a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realization of such assets. The change in the valuation allowance during 2008 was due to an increase in deferred tax assets of $800,000 and the utilization of NOLs of $3,527,000.

Other Agreements
The Company has entered into various license agreements which require payment of royalties based upon a set percentage of product sales, subject in some cases, to certain minimum amounts. Total royalty expense approximated $20,000, $15,000 and $27,000, respectively, in fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006.
In July 2008, the Company amended a purchase and supply agreement with a significant HBT customer that now expires in July 2010, excluding a last time buy option contained in the agreement. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company agreed to maintain capacity levels for manufacturing HBT wafers and the Company committed to a pricing schedule under certain circumstances. The agreement also requires the Company to give prior notice if the Company exits its HBT product line. In consideration for this agreement the customer agreed to source 100% of its HBT wafer needs from the Company subject to the customer’s right to source HBT wafers from other sources if the Company is unable to meet their requirements under certain circumstances. The Company agreed that failure to meet its supply obligations under the agreement would allow the Company’s customer to obtain court ordered specific performance and if the Company does not perform it could then be liable for monetary damages up to a maximum of $40.0 million. To date the Company has met its commitments under this agreement.
The Company is engaged in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company has received a complaint from a customer who has made certain claims, including the claim that the Company violated an agreement which gave them an exclusivity to sell a product in a specific territory. They are seeking approximately $2.678 million Euros as compensation for expenses and damages. The Company does not believe the claim has merit and will vigorously defend against it.
