2010 Incentive Bonus Plan



 Exhibit 10.18 
 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. 
 On December 1, 2009, Kopin Corporation’s (the “Company”) Compensation Committee approved the adoption of the
Company’s 2010 Incentive Plan effective as of December 27, 2009. The Company’s 2010 Incentive Plan will act as an incentive plan for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 25, 2010. Pursuant to this 2010 Incentive Plan,
certain officers and employees of the Company are eligible to earn incentive compensation if the Company achieves certain financial milestones (the “Financial Milestones”), as adopted by the Compensation Committee, based on the 2010 plan
budget. The purpose of the 2010 Incentive Plan is to further align the interest of management and shareholders by providing employees higher levels of compensation for meeting or exceeding the Financial Milestones. The 2010 Incentive Plan provides a
cash bonus if the minimum Financial Milestones are achieved and is designed to pay out approximately 35% of amounts earned in cash and 65% in restricted common stock of the Company for incremental amounts earned above the minimum. If the Company is
unable to issue common stock, the amounts earned may be paid out solely in the form of cash. If the minimum Financial Milestones are not met, no bonus or restricted stock will be owed under the 2010 Incentive Plan. The incentive compensation may be
earned if the product line a participant works for meets its respective Financial Milestone even if the other product lines of the Company do not meet its respective Financial Milestones. Drs. Fan and Choi and Mr. Sneider will earn 50% of their
incentive compensation based on the results of the Display product line and 50% upon the results of the III-V product line. 
 Pursuant to the 2010 Incentive Plan, on December 1, 2009, the Company granted to its Officers restricted stock awards as set forth in column (b) of table II below. If the Financial Milestones are met, the shares of restricted
stock will vest as follows: (i) 50% of the restricted stock will vest if the Officer is employed by the Company through December 10, 2010, and (ii) the remaining 50% of the restricted stock will vest if the Officer remains employed by
the Company from December 11, 2010 through December 10, 2011. In order to earn the cash component of the incentive plan the Officer must be employed with the Company on December 25, 2010. The Company shall determine if the
Financial Milestones have been met based on its financial results for the year ended December 25, 2010. 
 Table I below
provides the potential range of awards that the Officers may be eligible to earn under the 2010 Incentive Plan. The table does not include amounts that will be paid as part of the Officer’s annual salary, amounts that may be earned under
previous equity awards or any additional awards the Compensation Committee may grant.

	(a)	 	Cash bonus payable if the minimum Financial Milestones are achieved. 


	(b)	 	Estimate of the total incentive compensation an Officer could earn if all Financial Milestones are achieved. As set forth in the Table II below, the Maximum Incentive
Compensation is computed as the sum of the Maximum Cash Bonus (column (a) below) plus the value of the Maximum Restricted Shares earned under the 2010 Incentive Plan (column (b) below). The value of the restricted common stock was computed
as the maximum number of shares an Officer could earn multiplied by $4.35, the closing stock price on December 1, 2009. The value of the restricted common stock is an approximation of the expense the Company would record as a result of the 2010
Incentive Plan. The actual value to the Officer is dependent on the Company’s common stock price on the day the restrictions on the common stock lapse.
