       Kopin Receives Notification from Nasdaq Listing Council

    TAUNTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 2, 2007--Kopin Corporation
(NASDAQ: KOPN) today announced that, as expected, the Nasdaq Listing
and Hearing Review Council (the "Council") has notified the Company
that it has until Tuesday, September 25, 2007 to file its overdue
periodic reports and any necessary restatements with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission and Nasdaq. The Council said that
if Kopin does not regain compliance by September 25, 2007, its
securities could be suspended from listing on the Nasdaq Global Market
at the opening of business on September 27, 2007.

    Under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4809 ("Rule 4809"), the Nasdaq Board
of Directors (the "Nasdaq Board") may call the Council's decision for
review and grant a stay of delisting. Kopin intends to request that
the Nasdaq Board exercise its discretionary authority under Rule 4809
to grant the Company continued listing beyond the Council's September
25, 2007 deadline to allow the Company time to complete its
investigation into the Company's past stock option practices and
related accounting and prepare and file its audited financial
statements.

    As announced by the Company in May 2007, a Special Investigative
Committee issued preliminary findings and recommendations based on its
review of Kopin's historical stock option granting practices. As part
of its preliminary findings, the Special Investigative Committee
recommended, and the Company's Board of Directors agreed, that the
Company's financial statements for the period 1995 through 2006 and
the related interim periods should not be relied upon, and that the
Company's financial statements should be restated. The Company is now
working to complete any necessary restatements of its financial
statements. As a result of the ongoing review, Kopin has not filed its
Third Quarter 2006 Form 10-Q, 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K or its
First Quarter 2007 Form 10-Q.

    "We are focused on resolving the issues connected with our overdue
filings and are working diligently to meet any deadlines set by
NASDAQ," said John C.C. Fan, Kopin's president and chief executive
officer. "A number of investors have asked about the timing of our
2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which will be scheduled as soon
as the Company has completed its work and our filings are up to date."
