EXCLUSIVE DISTRIBUTOR AGREEMENT    
    

        This Distributor Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of April 1st, 2004 by and between Displaytech Inc., a Colorado corporation
(hereinafter called "Displaytech"), 2602 Clover Basin Drive, Longmont, Colorado 80503-7603, and Nissho Electronics Corporation (hereinafter called "Nissho"), a Japanese corporation,
7-3-1 Tsukiji Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104, Japan, for marketing and sales by Nissho of Displaytech products described in  Exhibit A attached hereto (hereinafter called "Products"). 

        In
consideration of the promises and mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, it is agreed by and between the parties hereto as follows: 

 1. Appointment  

        Subject to the terms and conditions hereunder, and the Private Label Product ("PLP") rights of Miyota, Co., Ltd. described below, Displaytech hereby
appoints Nissho as an exclusive distributor of Products in the territory described in Exhibit B (hereinafter called "Territory") and Nissho
hereby accepts such appointment. The parties acknowledge that Nissho Electronics (U.S.A.) Corporation, Santa Clara, California, a wholly owned subsidiary of Nissho (hereinafter called "Agent"), is an
authorized agent of Nissho for placing purchase orders and making payments for Products. 

 2. Performance of Agreement  

        Both parties agree they will use commercially reasonable efforts to perform to the Agreement. Displaytech agrees to develop its Products and a Product plan, and
to make Nissho aware of its Product plan. Nissho agrees to use its best efforts to promote and sell Displaytech Products in all commercially feasible markets in their Territory. Nissho shall not
solicit sales outside of the Territory absent the written consent of Displaytech, and Displaytech shall have no liability for unauthorized shipments into the Territory by third parties. 

 3. New Products  

        In the event Displaytech develops or handles any new products in the future which are related to, similar to, or competitive with Products, subject to the terms
and conditions hereunder, and except for Miyota PLP, Displaytech agrees to grant Nissho the first right of refusal to exclusively distribute such new products in the Territory under the same terms and
conditions of this Agreement. 

 4. Nissho Obligations and Responsibility  

        (a)    Sales Reports.    Nissho shall provide monthly to Displaytech a Sales report on 25th of each month, (within
written or electronic report by the format in Exhibit C, Part 2) regarding market conditions for the products in the Territory. This
report includes the identities and status of the customers and prospects of Nissho, and shall also provide Displaytech with information regarding customer demand for new product ideas. Upon request,
Nissho agrees to furnish Displaytech information regarding the Nissho's efforts to advertise, market, and promote the sale of the Products in the Territory. 

        (b)    Sales Forecasts.    Nissho shall provide monthly to Displaytech a forecast on 25th of each month, (within
written or electronic report by the format in Exhibit C, Part 1) which covers a twelve 

1

 

(12) month
rolling forecast to Displaytech Sales. Such forecast should also define anticipated promotional programs. 

        (c)    New or Modified Products.    Nissho shall document and present in writing all requests for current product
modification requests, new product requests. Modified products must go through the Displaytech Product Change Notification form and process to evaluate technical feasibility, schedules, cost, and ROI. 

        (d)    Competitive Products.    During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one year thereafter, Nissho
agrees not to purchase, import, sell, lease, develop, manufacture, or otherwise deal in, directly or indirectly, any products that are considered to be competitive with Products without the prior
written consent of Displaytech. Nissho shall document and present competition status during each quarterly Sales Conference. 

        (e)    Suggested Prices.    Displaytech may give Nissho the suggested price for the Products for the purpose of its
reference; however, such suggested price will not bind Nissho to establish its selling price of the Products. 

        (f)    Importation of Products into Territory.    Nissho will be responsible for importing Products into the
Territory, including obtaining all documents required, and paying all duties and other charges levied, by the Government of Japan and any other country, if applicable. 

 5. Quarterly Sales Conferences  

        The parties agree to hold discussions at three (3) month intervals, to discuss their mutual performance under the Agreement during the preceding three
months, and Sales plans for the next three (3) month period as well as strategy for following twelve (12) months. Displaytech shall provide to Nissho an update of its Product plans, and
Nissho shall provide to Displaytech an update of its sales and marketing plan for the Products. Based upon these discussions, the parties arrive at mutually agreeable sales and marketing plans for the
Products in the Territory for the following twelve months. Nissho will provide Displaytech quarterly written reports regarding its performance in achieving the sales and marketing plan. 

(a)
Nissho shall identify in writing during Quarterly Sales Conferences by market segment (DSC, Emerging Markets, etc....) all potential customers as noted in Exhibit
C with each customer rated: 

        (1)    Established    (provision of R&D contacts, QA contacts, Procurement contacts, specific
market plans and direction for Sales activity, and identification and agreement upon "Strategic" accounts). 

        (2)    Investigation    (disclosure of investigated company market and potential for Sales) 

        (3)    New    (disclosure of new targets potential and Sales approach plans) 

        (4)    Non-targeted    (any customer considered by Displaytech as a potential customer, and
not targeted by Nissho must be documented why they are not targeted) 

        (b)    Nissho Performance Guarantee.    

        (1)
Displaytech and Nissho executive management must have a semi-annual review where performance against goals in  Exhibit D is evaluated by individual customer and compared with information from
 Exhibit C. Nissho's goals set in Exhibit D for both design wins and monthly sales volumes
will be evaluated in detail. 

        (2)
Performance metrics, set as Nissho performance goals, shall be included as an update to Exhibit D on the
semi-annual basis by Displaytech and Nissho executive management. A review of the performance matrices will be done at each Quarterly Sales Meeting to track performance using 

2

 

the
document in Exhibit D. Exhibit D will represent Nissho's guarantee of performance. Goals as defined in the  Exhibit D are to be maintained as
a matter of record. Exhibit D will be updated on an annual basis. 

        (c)    Displaytech Responsibility.    

        Displaytech
has responsibility to set goals (as defined in Exhibit D) that are in line with the Territory, Whole Target Market,
Corporate Targets and the Product Roadmap presented by Displaytech. The goals must be reviewed and agreed upon by Nissho in writing at each semiannual executive management meeting. Goals may also be
reviewed during Quarterly Sales Conferences. 

        (1)
The first Submission to Exhibit D will occur upon agreement and signing into acceptance of this document 

 6. Changes to and Discontinuance of Products  

        Upon ninety (90) days' prior written notice to Nissho, Displaytech shall have the right, without liability, to change the design and/or specification of
Products, or to discontinue the availability of Products. Such changes or discontinuance shall not apply to any orders from Nissho which have been accepted by Displaytech. Displaytech shall continue
to supply the spare and replacement parts for such discontinued Products for twelve (12) months after such discontinuance. The inventory that will be maintained by Displaytech will match the
percentage of returns (RMA) of the discontinued product for the previous three (3) months' shipments. 

 7. Pricing  

        Product pricing is set annually and reviewed quarterly, and published as Displaytech's Japanese Distribution Product Price List. Japanese distribution pricing
will be set by Displaytech based on market conditions, considering the product sales volume and value added provided by Nissho as the exclusive Japanese distributor for Displaytech products, excluding
PLP products 

        If
any pricing is changed as a function of market conditions, the changes will be reflected in this document (see Exhibit F) no more
frequent than quarterly. Prices set within Exhibit F are a function of average monthly volume sold to Nissho, and assumes that groupings will
include the same or nearly the same product (Standard Product) for ease of manufacturing and selling process. Selling price to Nissho will be fixed as a function of actual average monthly volume at
the time the purchase order is issued and not changed until volume price breaks are met as set in Exhibit F. Average monthly volumes will be
calculated using a previous three-month moving window. Note that current design wins for Kyocera [*****] are currently priced in dollars. 

        Displaytech
will consider special pricing proposals made by Nissho on a case by case basis after Nissho submits to Displaytech a Request
for Special Quotation (see Exhibit E). This form once mutually agreed upon must be attached to all subsequent purchase orders. If the parties are
unable to agree on pricing pursuant to a special pricing proposal, Nissho may, at its option, elect not to provide a quotation to the customer. In the event Nissho elects not to provide a bid to a
customer, Displaytech may provide a quotation to the customer directly at a price higher than that quoted to Nissho. Pricing for changes to Standard Products, such as for unique quality levels, must
be considered carefully by Displaytech and weighed on an individual basis. A Request for Special Quotation (see Exhibit E) will be submitted to Displaytech for any requested variation to a
standard product.

 8. Order Placement and Fulfillment  

        (a)    Orders.    

        (1)
All orders for Products submitted by Nissho shall be initiated by placing an order by facsimile provided that Nissho shall promptly send a confirming written order (hereinafter
called a "Purchase Order") to Displaytech after placing such order. Displaytech agrees that Agent may place an order for Nissho in accordance with the ordering procedure specified in this Article. Any
term or condition in a Purchase Order, or any other purchasing document from Nissho or Agent, which is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this agreement, or which would have the effect of
imposing any additional obligation on Displaytech, shall be null and void. 

        (2)
All orders are subject to acceptance by Displaytech provided that such acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event Displaytech accepts the order, Displaytech shall
promptly provide an order acknowledgement and return it to Nissho or Agent upon receipt of the Purchase Order from Nissho or Agent within ten (10) days of initial receipt. Displaytech may condition
acceptance of a Purchase Order on Nissho's acceptance of changes thereto requested by Displaytech. In the event Displaytech rejects the order, Displaytech shall notify Nissho or Agent of such
rejection and specify the reason for the rejection by facsimile. For any purchase order that has been accepted as a condition of a Special Quotation, that accepted form must accompany the order
submission. 

        (b)    Shipment.    

        Upon
acceptance by Displaytech of an order, Displaytech shall use its best effort to ship Products to Nissho consistent with its then current lead times. Unless otherwise agreed, all
shipments will be FOB Displaytech's contract manufacturer. 

        (c)    Taxes and Duties.    

        Nissho
shall bear and pay all taxes (including, but not limited to sales, use, value added, registration, ad valorem, excise, employment, consumption, and documentary taxes), custom
duties, import surcharges or other governmental charges to be imposed or charged in Territory in connection with the sale of Products hereunder. 

        (d)    Bill of Exchange/Payment.    

        Nissho
agrees that its Agent will enter into Bills of Exchange within three (3) days of product shipment with Displaytech's Bill of Exchange bank. Payment in U.S. dollars or yen,
as agreed to by the parties and using exchange rates as agreed to by the parties, shall be made thirty (30) days after the date of shipment, to Displaytech's Bill of Exchange bank. Such payment
shall be made through Agent. All current Products offered for sale to Nissho will be under this program under this Agreement. 

        (e)    Representative Service Fee.    

        Displaytech
agrees that there are no fees for the Products. 

 9. Relationship of the Parties, Warranties and indemnities  

        Nissho is an independent contractor and in no way a partner, agent, or employee of Displaytech. Nissho agrees not to make any representation, promise, guarantee,
or warranty on Displaytech's behalf. Nissho further agrees that it will not assume or create any obligation on Displaytech's behalf expressed or implied regarding the Products or otherwise.
Displaytech's only warranty obligation covering the Products sold by it to Nissho shall be as set forth in Displaytech's standard printed warranty as applicable to the particular product and attached
hereto as Exhibit G (as amended from time to time). NO OTHER WARRANTY EXPRESSED, STATUTORY, OR IMPLIED SHALL APPLY TO THE PRODUCTS, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE WARRANTIES OF 

4

 

MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL DISPLAYTECH BE LIABLE TO NlSSHO, OR ANY CUSTOMER OF NISSHO, UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE
THEORY, WHETHER CONTRACT, WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOST BUSINESS, LOST REVENUE,
OR COSTS AND EXPENSES FOR PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS, OR FOR PRODUCT RECALL. 

        Displaytech
shall hold Nissho harmless from damages awarded to a third party by a final, unappeased U.S. or Japanese court judgment (and, if Displaytech has not assumed control of
defense and settlement, reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred by Nissho) holding Nissho liable for the payment of damages resulting from injury or death to any person, or loss of property
(excluding any product which uses or incorporates Displaytech's Product) where such injury or death or loss is proximately caused by a defective Displaytech Product, such defect being caused solely by
Displaytech, provided Displaytech is promptly notified of any and all threats, claims and proceedings related thereto and given reasonable assistance by Nissho and the opportunity to assume complete
control over the defense and all negotiations for settlement or compromise. In defending any claim, Displaytech may settle on any terms it may wish. Displaytech will not be responsible for any
settlement or compromise it has not approved in writing. The foregoing states the entire liability of Displaytech, and constitutes Nissho's sole and exclusive remedy for product liability related to
its Products furnished hereunder. 

        Displaytech's
Products are not intended for sale as parts used in the operation of nuclear facilities, the flight, navigation, or communication of aircraft or ground support equipment,
the control of hazardous materials, or other ultra-hazardous activities. Nissho on behalf of itself and any direct or indirect end-user using the Products for these applications agrees
that Displaytech is not liable, in whole or in part, for any claims or damages arising from such use. Nissho further agrees to indemnify Displaytech against any claims, damages, expense or liability
arising out of the use of Products for such applications. 

 10. Proprietary Rights  

        (a) Displaytech shall at all times own all patent, copyrights, trademarks, or trade secrets or other intellectual property rights to in and related to the
Products and the manufacture thereof and all improvements and modifications thereto and does not grant any rights of any kind in or to such intellectual property other than as are necessary to perform
the sales and marketing activities contemplated hereunder and subject to the terms of this Agreement. During the term of this Agreement, Nissho shall be authorized to use Displaytech's trademarks and
trade names only in connection with the sale, advertisement, and promotion of Products, not in connection with any other aspect of its business. Nissho specifically agrees to refrain from using such
trademarks or trade names as a part of Nissho's name or mark in any other manner which would cause a reasonable person to infer that such trademarks or trade names belong to Nissho. Nissho further
agrees that it will not affix any Displaytech's trademarks or trade names to any products which are not supplied by Displaytech. Any use by Nissho of Displaytech's trade name and/or trademarks or any
other trade names or trademarks associated with the Products must be approved in writing by a duly authorized officer of Displaytech or any other trade names or trademarks associated with the
Products. 

        (b)    Patent Indemnification.    

        (1)
Displaytech shall hold Nissho harmless from damages awarded to a third party by a final, non-appeasable judgment of any U.S. or Japanese court (and, if Displaytech has
not assumed control of defense and settlement, reasonable attorney fees and court costs incurred by Nissho) holding that Nissho's use or sale of the Products infringed a valid United States or
Japanese patent issued not later than the date the Products were first shipped to Nissho, provided Displaytech is 

5

 

promptly
notified of any and all threats, claims and proceedings related thereto and given the opportunity to assume complete control over the defense and all negotiations for settlement or
compromise, and Nissho provides Displaytech with reasonable cooperation, assistance and information in connection with the investigation, settlement negotiations, and defense of the claims. In
defending any claim, Displaytech may settle on any terms it may wish. Displaytech will not be responsible for any settlement or compromise it has not approved in writing. 

        (2)
Should any Products delivered hereunder become, or in Displaytech's opinion be likely to become, the subject of such a claim, Displaytech may, at its election, either
(1) procure for Nissho the right to continue to use the Products, (2) replace or modify the Products so that they become non-infringing, or (3) grant Nissho a credit
for the price paid for the units of Products involved in the claim for the preceding 12 months, less a prorated amount for depreciation. Displaytech may withhold further shipment of the
Products subject to the claim, without liability to Nissho. 

        (3)
The foregoing obligation of Displaytech does not apply with respect to Products or portions or components thereof (1) that are not supplied by Displaytech, (2) that are
made in whole or part in accordance with specifications established solely by Nissho, (3) that are modified by Nissho or any third party, (4) that are combined with
non-Displaytech Products, processes, or materials, where the infringement relates to such combination, (5) that are claimed to infringe any patent in which Nissho or any affiliate
or customer of Nissho has an interest or license, or (6) where Nissho continues allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of modifications that would
have avoided the alleged infringement. 

        (c)
The foregoing states the entire liability of Displaytech (and Nissho's sole and exclusive remedy hereunder) for infringement of intellectual property rights or other proprietary
rights by the Products furnished hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Displaytech's aggregate liability under this warranty shall not exceed the total amount paid to Displaytech for any
infringing Products sold hereunder for the 12-month period preceding any claim for infringement. 

 11. Confidentiality  

        Each party shall not disclose any confidential information of the other party to any third party. The disclosing party shall mark such confidential information as
"Confidential," if such information is in writing, and confirm in writing that such information is confidential within ten (10) days after such disclosure, if it is disclosed orally or visually
by the disclosing party to the receiving party. Such confidential information does not include information which: (a) is or becomes publicly available without breach of this Agreement by the
receiving party; (b) is released for disclosure by the disclosing party with its written consent; (c) is known by the receiving party prior to the disclosure; (d) is rightly
received by the receiving party from a third party without confidential limitations; (e) is hereafter disclosed by the disclosing party to a third party without restriction on disclosure; or
(f) is independently developed by the receiving party's employees not having access to such confidential information. 

 12. Term and Termination  

        (a) Subject to earlier termination, as provided herein, this Agreement shall become effective on the date first above written, and shall be effective for an
initial term of one (1) year. Thereafter this Agreement shall be renewed automatically under the same terms and conditions for one (1) year periods, unless either party gives the other
party written notice of its intent not to renew at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of each term. 

        (b)
In the event either party breaches any provision of this Agreement or fails to perform its obligations hereunder, the other party shall notify in writing such default to the
defaulting party. The parties shall then meet and attempt to resolve such default. If the parties are unable to resolve the 

6

 

default
within thirty (30) days of the date of the written notice, then the non-defaulting party may terminate the Agreement upon giving the other party two (2) weeks written
notice. In the event such default is not cured within such two (2) week period, then this Agreement shall automatically terminate. 

        (c)
A party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon giving written notice the other party (i) voluntarily seeks protection under any bankruptcy, receivership, trust deed,
creditors arrangement, composition or comparable proceeding, or (ii) if any such proceeding instituted against the other party and is not dismissed within ninety (90) days, AND such
action by or against the other party causes that party to breach a material term or condition of this Agreement. 

        (d)
Notwithstanding the above, the provisions of articles herein which are titled, "Warranty," "Proprietary Rights," "Confidentiality," and "Arbitration," shall survive the termination. 

        (e)
Upon termination of this Agreement, Nissho will provide Displaytech with a list of potential customers with whom Nissho has corresponded, the details of the potential sales, and the
name of the contact person within the potential customer's organization. 

 13. Force Majeure  

        Neither party shall be responsible for delays in delivery or performance because of intervention of a Force Majeure, which term shall include strikes, lockouts,
riots, epidemics, war, governmental regulations, fire, explosion, acts of God or nature, or any other cause beyond the control of a party affected. In no event shall lack of finances be considered a
cause beyond the control of a party, and a failure to pay any amount due hereunder shall not be excused. The party affected by the Force Majeure shall give prompt notice thereof, and upon cessation of
the Force Majeure, take all reasonable steps to resume compliance with its obligations. 

 14. Waiver  

        No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced. No
failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of the right, power, or remedy. No waiver of any term, condition, or default
of this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any other term, condition, or default of this Agreement. 

 15. Assignment  

        Nissho shall not assign, transfer, or otherwise dispose of this Agreement or any of its rights, interest, or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of Displaytech, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

 16. Relationship  

        Both parties are independent contractors under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create, or shall be construed as creating a joint venture,
partnership, agency, or employment relationship. Neither party shall have any express or implied right to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other party or to bind the
other party to any other contract, agreement, or undertaking with any third party. 

 17. Law and Trade Terms  

        The formation, validity, construction, and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado without regard to the conflict of
laws provisions thereof, and without regard to the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

The award thereof shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto. 

 19. Notices

 20. Severability  

        If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not be affected or impaired thereby. 

 21. Entire Agreement

        Item
of note, the current viewfinder market is held at a greater than 80% market share by Japan based companies. It is expected that Nissho will penetrate and capture
[*****] of this market in 2004. As well as the existing viewfinder market, an additional and separate revenue target will be set for Photonics and Emerging Markets (including
all kits and samples, as well as low volume sales targets for non-DSC viewfinder applications: HMD, IR cameras, instrumentation, SLM, accessories for PDA/games/cameras, etc...). 

        Targets
are set for 12 months production, however it should be noted that volumes are averaged for a typical 9-month production cycle per model.  Design Win, means commitment to our product via advanced
forecast and price agreement. Revenue Target is
as a TOTAL for those models won in Design Win. PRODUCTION is that time that a volume ramp starts based
upon production PO's covering 90-day forecasts submitted by Nissho.

Each
of the entities and individuals listed above is hereinafter referred to as a "Lender" and, collectively, as the "Lenders." 

Ladies
and Gentlemen: 

        The
undersigned, DISPLAYTECH, INC., a Colorado corporation (the "Company"), hereby agrees with the Lenders with respect to this Subordinated Convertible Note Purchase
Agreement (this "Agreement") as follows: 

        1.     Authorization. The Company has authorized the issuance and sale to the Lenders of (a) subordinated convertible
promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3,500,000 in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Note" and, collectively, the
"Notes") which Notes are convertible into Common Stock (as hereinafter defined) as set forth in the Notes (the "Note Securities"). The Notes and the Note Securities are sometimes
collectively referred to herein as the "Securities." 

        2.     Sale and Purchase of the Notes. Upon the terms and conditions contained herein, the Company agrees to sell to each of the
Lenders, and each of the Lenders severally agrees to purchase from the Company, at the Closing (as hereinafter defined) a Note for up to that amount specified on  Schedule A hereto at a
purchase price equal to the full principal amount of such Note. 

        3.     Closing; Failure to Fund. The closing of the sale to, and purchase by, the Lenders of the Notes (the "Closing") shall
occur on the date on which the Escrow Agent (as hereinafter defined) has received Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3,500,000 (the "Closing Date"). At the Closing, the Company shall deliver
to each of the Lenders or its representative a Note, issued in the name of such Lender in the amount specified in Schedule A hereto opposite such
Lender's name, against delivery of payment, by check or by wire transfer to a non-interest bearing escrow account (the "Escrow Account") established, maintained and controlled by
Faegre & Benson, LLP, as escrow agent on behalf of the Company and the Lenders. The funds deposited in the Escrow Account shall be released to the Company upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of
instructions from the Company and each of the Lenders instructing the Escrow Agent to release the funds in such Escrow Account to the Company. 

 

        4.     Company Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to the Lenders, severally and not jointly, on
the date hereof as follows: 

        (a)   Organization and Standing; Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Colorado, and has full power and authority and all material licenses and approvals to own and operate its properties and assets and to
carry on its business as presently conducted. The Company is duly qualified and authorized to do business, and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, in each jurisdiction where the nature of
its activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect upon the business and
operations of the Company. 

        (b)   Authorization. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and shareholders necessary for
the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes, the Subordination Agreement (as hereinafter defined) and related documents (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), the
performance of all the Company's obligations hereunder and thereunder, and for the authorization, issuance, sale and delivery of the Securities has been taken or will be taken prior to the Closing.
The Transaction Documents, when executed and delivered, shall constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to laws of
general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and subject to the availability of equitable remedies. 

        (c)   Capitalization; Validity of Securities. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (i) 25,000,000
shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of which, as of the date hereof and as of immediately prior to the Closing, there are 7,058,900 shares of Common Stock
outstanding, and (ii) 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock") of which (1) 750,000 shares are designated as Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock, none of which are issued and outstanding, (2) 510,000 shares are designated as Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, none of which are issued and outstanding,
(3) 500,000 shares are designated as Series E-B Convertible Preferred Stock, none of which are issued and outstanding, (4) 510,000 shares are designated as
Series E-D Convertible Preferred Stock, none of which are issued and outstanding, (5) 600,000 shares are designated as Series E-1 Senior Preferred Stock,
none of which are issued and outstanding, (6) 400,000 shares are designated as Series E-2 Senior Preferred Stock, none of which are issued and outstanding, (7) 200,000
shares are designated as Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, none of which are issued and outstanding and (8) 200,000 shares are designated as Series G Convertible Preferred
Stock, none of which are issued and outstanding. The sale of the Securities is not and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been waived; provided,
however, that the Securities may be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or federal securities laws as set forth herein or therein or as otherwise required by such laws at the time a
transfer is proposed. The Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes at the time of issuance will be duly authorized and when issued and delivered and upon payment therefor in accordance with
the terms of the Notes will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will be free of any liens or encumbrances. 

        (d)   Reports of the Company; No Material Adverse Changes. The Company has furnished the Lenders with copies of its
(i) unaudited balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 and the related statements of operations, shareholders equity and cash flows for the year then ended (collectively, the "Unaudited
Financial Statements") and (ii) audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2002 and the related statements of operations, shareholders equity and cash flows for the year then ended
(collectively, the "Audited Financial Statements" and, together with the Unaudited Financial Statements, the "Financial Statements"). Said Financial Statements, as of their respective dates, were
accurate and complete in all material respects and did not omit any material information 

2

 

required
to be set forth therein. Since December 31, 2003, there has not been any change in the assets, liabilities, financial condition or operating results of the Company from that reflected
in the Financial Statements, except for changes in the ordinary course of business that have not been, in the aggregate, materially adverse. 

        (e)   Intellectual Property Rights. 

        (i)    To
the best of its knowledge, the Company has sufficient title and ownership of all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets,
information, proprietary rights, and processes (collectively, "Intellectual Property") necessary for its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted to the Company's knowledge, without
any conflict with or infringement of the rights of others; 

        (ii)   Except
as listed on Schedule 4(e) attached hereto, there are not outstanding options, licenses, or agreements of
any kind relating to the matters listed in subsection (a) above or that grant rights to any other person to manufacture, license, produce, assemble, market or sell the Company's
products, nor is the Company bound by or a party to any options, licenses, or agreements of any kind with respect to the Intellectual Property of any other person or entity; 

        (iii)  Except
as listed on Schedule 4(e) attached hereto, the Company has not received any communications alleging that
the Company or its employees has violated or infringed or, by conducting its business as proposed, would violate or infringe any of the Intellectual Property of any other person or entity; and 

        (iv)  The
Company is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants, or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or
subject to any judgment, decree, or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of such employee's best efforts to promote the interests of the Company with respect
to the Intellectual Property of the Company or otherwise or that would conflict with the Company's business as proposed to be conducted. 

        (f)    Compliance With Other Instruments and Laws. Except as listed on  Schedule 4(f) attached hereto, the Company is not in violation or default in any material respect
of any provision of its articles of
incorporation or bylaws or in any material respect of any provision of any material mortgage, indenture, agreement, instrument, or contract to which it is a party of by which it is bound, or of any
federal or state judgment, order, writ, decree, or any federal or state statute, rule, regulation or restriction applicable to the Company. Except as listed on  Schedule 4(f) attached hereto, the
execution, delivery, and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not result in any such violation or be in material conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time or giving of notice, either a
material default under any such provision or an event that results in the creation of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment,
forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization, or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations, or any of its assets or properties. 

        (g)   Litigation. Except as listed on Schedule 4(g) attached hereto,
there is no action, suit, proceeding, or investigation pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company that questions the validity of the Transaction Documents, or the
right of the Company to enter into such agreements, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or that might result, either individually or in the aggregate, in any material
adverse change in the assets, business properties, prospects or financial condition of the Company. 

3

 

        (h)   Taxes. The Company has no material liability for any federal, state or local taxes, except for taxes which have accrued
and are not yet payable or are being contested by the Company in good faith. The Company has paid all payroll taxes required to be paid by it. 

        (i)    Offering. The Company has not offered the Securities in a public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). 

        5.     Representations and Warranties of Lenders. Each of the Lenders, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants
to the Company as follows: 

        (a)   Legal Power. It has the requisite legal power to enter into this Agreement, to purchase the Securities hereunder, to
convert its Note, and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement. 

        (b)   Due Execution. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it, and, upon due execution and
delivery by the Company, this Agreement will be a valid and binding agreement of it. 

        (c)   Investment Representations. 

        (i)    It
is acquiring the Securities and will acquire any security issued upon exercise thereof for its own account in a manner which is not in violation of the 1933 Act. 

        (ii)   It
understands that (A) the Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, that the Securities must be held
by it indefinitely, and that it must, therefore, bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely, unless a subsequent disposition
thereof is registered under the 1933 Act or is exempt form such registration; (B) the Securities will be endorsed with the following legend: 

Neither
this Note nor the shares issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the 1933 Act. The Holder may not transfer this Note or any shares issued pursuant
to its conversion provisions unless either (i) there is an effective registration covering such note or such shares under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws or (ii) the
Company receives an opinion of an attorney acceptable to the board of directors or its agents, that the proposed transfer is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act and under all applicable state
securities law or (iii) unless the transfer is made pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or (iv) unless the transfer is made to an affiliate (as defined in
Rule 12-b2 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 or (iv) in the case of the Notes held by Robert Mackie and Joseph Sheehan, the purchase of such Notes by Century
America, LLC pursuant to that certain Letter Agreement by and among Century America, LLC, Robert Mackie and Joseph Sheehan. 

and
(C) the Company will instruct any transfer agent not to register the transfer of any of the Securities unless the conditions specified in the foregoing legend are satisfied; provided,
however, that no such opinion of counsel shall be necessary if the sale, transfer or assignment is made pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Rule 144 and such transferring
Lender provides the Company with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel that the proposed transaction satisfies the requirements of Rule 144. The Company agrees to
remove the foregoing legend from any securities if the requirements of SEC Rule 144(k) (or any successor rule or regulation) apply with respect to such securities and the Company and its
counsel are provided with reasonably satisfactory evidence that the requirements of Rule 144(k) apply. 

        (iii)  It
acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities. 

4

 

        (iv)  It
is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect. 

        (v)   It
understands that the Securities it is purchasing are characterized as "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired
from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act, only in
certain limited circumstances, and it represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the 1933 Act. 

        (vi)  Its
principal business address is as set forth above on the first page hereof and it does not reside in any state of the United States other than the state so
specified. 

        6.     Conditions to Closing. The Closing shall be subject to the following conditions:

enforcement of that or any other term hereof on any other occasion. 

        (f)    If

Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), (y) imposed pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (z) due to the fact that

Note to the Company at the Company's principal offices and the Company shall, as promptly as practicable after the surrender, deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing
the number of fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock into which this Note has been converted. In the event of an involuntary conversion pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, from and after

obligation under this Note other than to issue such Common Stock.

("Common Stock") is quoted on Nasdaq, the Holder of this Note shall have the right, at the Holder's option, to convert this Note: (i) at any time after the ninetieth (90th) day
following the initial public offering of the Company's common stock (the "Initial Public Offering"), into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Accreted Value of the
Note as of the date of such conversion by the per share offering price at which the Common Stock was sold in the Initial Public Offering; (ii) upon consummation of an equity financing by
the Company other than the Initial Public Offering (an "Equity Financing"), into that number of shares of equity securities of the Company issued in such Equity Financing determined by dividing the
Accreted Value of the Note as of the date of such conversion by the per share offering price at which such equity securities were sold in the Equity Financing; or (iii) upon consummation
of a Change of Control Event pursuant to which the stockholders of the Company receive (either directly or as a distribution from the Company) equity securities of another business entity, into that
number of such equity securities determined by dividing the Accreted Value of the Note as of the date of such conversion by eighty percent (80%) of the dollar value of the aggregate amount of

or substantially all of the assets or stock of the Company, (ii) a merger, consolidation or similar such transaction involving the Company (other than a merger of the Company for purposes of

is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities 

3

 

Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act")) who had not previously owned at least twenty percent (20%) of the total voting power represented by the Company's then outstanding voting securities
is or becomes the "Beneficial Owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting
power represented by the Company's then outstanding voting securities other than the Initial Public Offering. 

	6.2
	Involuntary Conversion. Any time after the ninetieth (90th) day following a Qualified Initial Public Offering (as
hereinafter defined), this Note shall be converted, with no action on the part of the Holder, into that number of shares of Common Stock determined in accordance with the next sentence of this
Section 6.2 if the following conditions are met: (i) the Company delivers a written notice to the Holder specifying the date on which this Note is to be converted (the
"Involuntary Conversion Date"); (ii) the average Trading Price (as hereinafter defined) of the Common Stock for the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the Involuntary
Conversion Date (the "Average Trading Price") shall be at least twenty percent (20%) above the per share offering price at which the Common Stock was sold in the Initial Public Offering; and
(iii) the shares of Common Stock deliverable to the Holder upon such conversion will be freely tradable as of the Involuntary Conversion Date. Upon any conversion of this Note in
accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, this Note shall convert into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Accreted Value of this Note by the per
share offering price at which the Common Stock was sold in the Qualified Initial Public Offering. For purposes hereof, "Trading Price" shall mean (i) if the Common Stock is listed on a national
securities exchange, the closing sale price per share of Common Stock as published by the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is traded on such date, or (ii) if the

such date. For purposes hereof, "Qualified Initial Public Offering" shall mean any Initial Public Offering having gross proceeds to the Company in excess of $20,000,000. For purposes hereof, shares of

Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), (y) imposed pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (z) due to the fact that
the Holder has obtained material nonpublic information about the Company.

	6.3
	Conversion Procedures. In order to receive the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, the Holder must surrender this
Note to the Company at the Company's principal offices and the Company shall, as promptly as practicable after the surrender, deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing
the number of fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock into which this Note has been converted. In the event of an involuntary conversion pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, from and after
the Involuntary Conversion Date this Note shall only represent the right to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such involuntary conversion, and the Company shall have no
obligation under this Note other than to issue such Common Stock.

	6.4
	Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of stock or scrip shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. Instead of any fractional
shares of stock which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to the then current
market price of such fractional interest.

	6.5
	Mandatory Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the Holder of this Note at any time following
the payment in full of the HP Senior Indebtedness shall have the right on ten business days' notice to demand prepayment in full of the Accreted

the Involuntary Conversion Date this Note shall only represent the right to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such involuntary conversion, and the Company shall have no
obligation under this Note other than to issue such Common Stock.

EXHIBIT B  

SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT  

        This Subordination Agreement (this "Agreement")
dated                        , is between the undersigned ("Creditor"), and Silicon Valley Bank ("Bank"). 

Recitals  

        A.    Displaytech, Inc.
("Borrower") has requested and/or obtained credit from Bank which may be secured by its assets and property. 

        B.    Creditor
has extended credit to Borrower and/or may later extend other credit to Borrower. 

        C.    To
induce Bank to extend credit to Borrower and make further extensions of credit to or for Borrower, or to purchase or extend credit pursuant to any instrument or
writing on which Borrower is liable or to grant renewals or extensions of any loan, extension of credit, purchase, or other accommodation Creditor will subordinate: (i) all of Borrower's
indebtedness and obligations to Creditor, existing now or later (the "Subordinated Debt") to all of Borrower's indebtedness and Obligations to Bank to the extent set forth herein; and (ii) all
of Creditor's security interests, to all of Bank's security interests in the Borrower's property. 

THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS:  

        1.     Creditor
subordinates to Bank any security interest or lien that it has in all property and assets of Borrower. Despite attachment or perfection dates of Creditor's
security interest and Bank's security interest, Bank's security interest in all assets and property of Borrower is prior to Creditor's security interest. 

        2.     All
Subordinated Debt payments are subordinated to all Borrower's Obligations to Bank existing now or later, together with collection costs of the Obligations (including
attorneys' fees), including, interest accruing after any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding and all Obligations owing to Bank (the "Senior Debt") subject to
Section 3(c) hereof. Defined terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Senior Debt loan documents. 

        3.     Until
the Senior Debt is paid in full, Creditor will not: 

	a)
	demand
or receive from Borrower (and Borrower will not pay) any part of the Subordinated Debt, by payment, prepayment, or otherwise,

	b)
	exercise
any remedy against any assets of Borrower, or

	c)
	accelerate
the Subordinated Debt, or begin to or participate in any action against Borrower, until all the Senior Debt is paid. However, Creditor may receive
regularly scheduled payments of interest that constitute Subordinated Debt (or may receive a payoff of the entire Subordinated Debt if Borrower completes an initial public offering for at least
$20,000,000), if an Event of Default (defined in the Senior Debt loan documents) has not occurred, is not continuing and would not exist immediately after payment. Nothing
contained herein shall prohibit Creditor from converting any Subordinated Debt into equity securities of Borrower. 

        4.     Until
the Senior Debt is paid in full, Creditor must deliver to Bank in the form received (except for endorsement or assignment by Creditor) any payment, distribution,
security or proceeds it receives on the Subordinated Debt other than according to this Agreement. 

        5.     These
provisions remain in full force and effect, despite Borrower's insolvency, reorganization or any case or proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, and
Bank's claims against Borrower and Borrower's estate will be fully paid before any payment is made to Creditor, subject to Section 3(c) hereof. 

 

        6.     Until
the Senior Debt is paid, Creditor irrevocably appoints Bank as its attorney-in-fact, with power of attorney with power of substitution, in
Creditor's name or in Bank's name, for Bank's use and benefit without notice to Creditor, to do the following in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding involving Borrower: 

        (i)    File
any claims for the Subordinated Debt for Creditor if Creditor does not do so at least 30 days before the time to file claims expires, and 

        (ii)   Accept
or reject any plan of reorganization or arrangement for Creditor and vote Creditor's claims in respect of the Subordinated Debt in any way it chooses. 

        7.     Creditor
will immediately put a legend on the Subordinated Debt instruments that the instruments are subject to this Agreement. No amendment of the Subordinated Debt
documents will modify this Agreement in any way that terminates or impairs the subordination of the Subordinated Debt or the subordination of the security interest or lien that Creditor has in
Borrower's property. For example, instruments cannot be amended to (i) increase the interest rate of the Subordinated Debt, or (ii) accelerate payment of principal or interest or any
other portion of the Subordinated Debt. 

        8.     This
Agreement is effective while Borrower owes any amounts to Bank. If after full payment of the Senior Debt, Bank must disgorge any payments made on the Senior Debt,
this Agreement and the relative rights and priorities provided in it, will be reinstated as to all disgorged payments as though the payments had not been made, and Creditor will immediately pay Bank
all payments received under the Subordinated Debt to the extent the payments would have been prohibited under this Agreement. At any time without notice to Creditor, Bank may take actions it considers
appropriate on the Senior Debt such as terminating advances, increasing the principal, extending the time of payment, increasing interest rates, renewing, compromising or otherwise amending any
documents affecting the Senior Debt and any collateral securing the Senior Debt, and enforcing or failing to enforce any rights against Borrower or any other person. No action or inaction will impair
or otherwise affect Bank's rights under this Agreement. Creditor waives the benefits, if any, of any statutory or common law rule that may permit a subordinating creditor to assert any defenses of a
surety or guarantor, or that may give the subordinating creditor the right to require a senior creditor to marshal assets, and Creditor agrees that it shall not assert any such defenses or rights. 

        9.     This
Agreement binds Creditor, its successors or assigns, and benefits Bank's successors or assigns. This Agreement is for Creditor's and Bank's benefit and not for the
benefit of Borrower or any other party. If Borrower is refinancing any of the Senior Debt with a new lender, upon Bank's request of Creditor, Creditor will enter into a new subordination agreement
with the new lender on substantially the terms of this Agreement. 

        10.   This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which is an original and all of which together constitute one instrument. 

        11.   Colorado
law governs this agreement without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles. Creditor and Bank submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in
Boulder County State of Colorado. CREDITOR AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION FROM THIS AGREEEMNT. 

        12.   This
Agreement represents the entire agreement about this subject matter, and supersedes prior negotiations or agreements. Creditor is not relying on any representations
by Bank in entering into this Agreement. Creditor will keep itself reasonably informed of Borrower's financial and other conditions. This Agreement may be amended only by written instrument signed by
Creditor and Bank.

        13.   If
there is an action to enforce the rights of a party under this Agreement, the party prevailing will be entitled, in addition to other relief, all reasonable costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred in the action.
