         right and power to terminate this Lease by delivering a written notice
         to Lessee specifying a termination date at the end of the month

         WHEREAS, LICENSEE is interested in manufacturing and selling Licensed
Products; and

         WHEREAS, LICENSEE desires to acquire from LICENSOR, and LICENSOR

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.       DEFINITIONS.

         The following terms when used herein shall have the respective meanings
set forth in this Article 1.

The "EFFECTIVE DATE" of this Agreement shall be the date which is the last date
of formal execution of this Agreement by duly authorized representatives of the
parties to this Agreement as indicated on the signature page of this Agreement.

"LICENSED PRODUCT" means a Light Valve Architectural Window Product
incorporating a Light Valve. The term "Licensed Product" shall not include Light
Valves used or intended for use in any product other than as specifically
defined herein, such as other window products not specifically defined herein,
windows for transportation vehicles, including, but not limited to passenger
cars, recreational vehicles, trucks, mobile cranes, trains,

<PAGE>

aircraft, boats, vans, sport utility vehicles, spacer craft and space-stations,
and non-window products such as but not limited to displays, eyewear, sun
visors, toys, mirrors or filters for scientific instruments, lamps or contrast
enhancement of displays. The term "display" means any device for displaying
letters, numbers, images or other indicia or patterns. Nothing contain herein
shall permit LICENSEE to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of a Light Valve
which is not combined or intended to be combined as described above into a Light
Valve Architectural Window Product.

<PAGE>

"LICENSED TERRITORY" means all countries of the world except North and South
Korea.

"LIGHT VALVE" means a variable light transmission device comprising, a cell
including cell walls, containing or adapted to contain an activatable material,
described hereinafter, such that a change in the optical characteristics of the
activatable material affects the characteristics of light absorbed by,
transmitted through and/or reflect from the cell; means incorporated in or on
the cell, or separate therefrom for applying an electric or magnetic field to
the activatable material within the cell; and coatings, (including, but not
limited to, electrodes), spacers, seals, electrical and/or electronic
components, and other elements incorporated in or on the cell. The activatable
material, which the cell contains or is adapted to contain, includes in it solid
suspended particles, which when subjected to a suitable electric or magnetic
field, orient to produce a change in the optical characteristics of the device,
and may be in the form of liquid suspension, gel, film or other material.

"LIGHT VALVE ARCHITECTURAL WINDOW PRODUCT" means a Light Valve used or intended
for use solely as a window integrally incorporated in, or attached as a fixture
to the external structure or internal structure of any building, whether
permanent or temporary, and whether above or below ground.

The "NET SELLING PRICE" of Licensed Products on which royalties are payable
shall be the greater of the following: (A) the genuine selling price of LICENSEE
and its sub licensees hereunder (including amounts charged for any writing,
installation, and related services provided by LICENSEE and its sub licensees
hereunder) f.o.b. factory at which nonaffiliated customers are billed in the
usual course of business for Licensed Products, as packed for shipment to the
customer, minus the genuine selling price (which, of purposes of this
calculation shall be deemed to be not more than $100 per window) of a window
similar to the Licensed Product but not incorporating a Light Valve; (B) the
genuine selling price of LICENSEE and its sublicensees hereunder (including
amounts charged for any wiring, installation, and related services provided by
LICENSEE and its sublicensees hereunder) f.o.b. factory at which nonaffiliated
customers are billed in the usual course of business for Licensed Products, as
packed for shipment to the customer, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the cost of all components included in the window associated with the
incorporation of a Light Valve, and the denominator of which is the total
manufacturing cost for such product; and (C) $100 per window. The aforementioned
$100 figure specified in clauses (A) and (C) above shall be adjusted upward as
of each January 1st hereafter beginning on January 1, 2001 by any increase in
the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods (the "Index") for the 12 month
period ending in December of the prior year, prepared by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the United States Department of Labor (or if the Index is not then

<PAGE>

being published, the most nearly comparable successor index). In calculating a
genuine selling price of a product for the above calculation, such price may be
reduced only by the applicable proportions of the following if, and to the
extent that, amounts in respect thereof are reflected in such selling price: (i)
normal trade discounts actually allowed; (ii) sales, use or excise and added
value taxes and custom duties paid; (iii) if the genuine selling price is other
than f.o.b. factor, amounts paid for f.o.b. transportation of the product to the
customer's premises or place of installation or delivery; (iv) insurance costs
and the costs of packing material, boxes, cartons and crates required for
shipping; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that for purposes of this calculation, the genuine
selling price of a product may not be less than 90% of the gross selling price
of said product after

                                        2
<PAGE>

all deductions therefrom. If a product is leased, sold, used or otherwise
disposed of on terms not involving a bona fide arm's length sale to an
unaffiliated third party, then the Net Selling Price for such transactions shall
be deemed to be the Net Selling Price as defined above for identical products
sold to a nonaffiliated customer nearest to the date of such lease, sale, use,
or other disposition.

"TECHNICAL INFORMATION" means all useful information relating to apparatus,
methods, processes, practices, formulas, techniques, procedures, patterns,
ingredients, designs and the like including (by way of example) drawings,
written recitations of data, specifications, parts, lists, assembly procedures,
operating and maintenance manuals, test and other technical reports, know-how of
LICENSOR, and the like owned or controlled by LICENSOR, to the extent they
exist, that relate to Light Valves, Licensed Products and/or to the suspensions
or other components used or usable for Licensed Products or Light Valves
including, but not limited to, particles, particle precursors, coatings,
polymers, liquid suspensions and suspending liquids, or any combination thereof,
and that consist of concepts invented or developed by LICENSOR. Know-how of
LICENSOR's suppliers and of LICENSOR's other licensees and their sublicensees
under licenses from LICENSOR shall not be considered Technical Information owned
or controlled by LICENSOR.

by LICENSEE, and shall charge LICENSEE $750 per man/day plus the cost of any
other materials used in providing such training or making such materials, plus
the cost of shipping such materials to LICENSEE. Each invoice submitted by
LICENSOR for such

                                        9
<PAGE>

service shall include detailed explanations of the charges, and, if requested by

applications listed on Schedule A, and that, except for the rights granted
hereunder, LICENSEE shall not have any rights or attempt to assert any ownership
rights in and to those patents and patent applications.

10.      TERM AND TERMINATION.

         10.1 TERM. The term of this Agreement shall extend from the Effective
Date of this Agreement to the date of termination of this Agreement. Unless
sooner terminated or extended, as herein provided for below, this Agreement
shall terminate upon the expiration of the later of (A) the last to expire of

at least 30 days' notice to LICENSEE for any reason, and LICENSOR may terminate
this Agreement at any time upon at least 30 days' notice to LICENSEE if LICENSEE
shall have failed to make any payment when due or at any time breach any
material term of this Agreement and such payment is not made or such breach is
not cured within any applicable cure period specified in Article 11 of this
Agreement, or repeatedly provide inaccurate reports hereunder, or if there has
been a cessation by LICENSEE of general operations or of work related to
Licensed Products.

         10.4 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. If this Agreement expires or is terminated
for any reason whatsoever, in addition to any other remedies which one party may
have against the other: (1) all of LICENSEE'S rights and licenses under this
Agreement shall cease, and LICENSEE shall immediately return to LICENSOR all
Technical Information furnished by LICENSEE under this Agreement, together with
all reproductions, copies and summaries thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
LICENSEE may retain solely for archival purposes one copy of all such documents
in its legal department files, (2) at LICENSOR's option, LICENSEE shall, within
30 days of the date of such termination, either (A) sell and deliver to LICENSOR
at LICENSEE's direct cost of manufacture any Licensed Products which shall then
be in the possession of LICENSEE, and, if requested by LICENSOR, LICENSEE shall
furnish and deliver to LICENSOR any Licensed Products in the process of
manufacture as soon as possible and, in any case, not later than 30 days after
receiving LICENSOR's request, and/or (B) with respect to any unsold inventory
and work in the process of manufacture, to complete such work in process and
sell any remaining inventory during the period not to exceed six months from the
date of termination or expiration of this Agreement provided that at the
completion of such six-month period, LICENSEE shall promptly destroy and dispose
of any Licensed Products (and Licensed Products in the process of manufacture)
not sold under this Section 10.4 and (3) if this Agreement is terminated for any
reason on or before December 31, 2003, LICENSEE hereby grants to LICENSOR a
nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, worldwide license with the right to
grant sublicenses to others to utilize all technical information, improvements
and/or modifications (whether or not the subject of patents or pending patent
applications) developed or invented by or on behalf of LICENSEE and/or its
sublicensees, subcontractors, or agents hereunder through the date of such
termination of this Agreement relating to Light Valves, or Licensed Products,
and upon such termination, LICENSEE shall

<PAGE>

provide LICENSOR in reasonable detail complete information regarding such
technical information, improvements and/or modifications. The foregoing license
shall be self-effectuating, but LICENSEE agrees upon written notice by LICENSOR
at any time hereafter to deliver to LICENSOR within 30 days of such notice any
document or other instrument reasonably requested by LICENSOR to convey such
license rights to LICENSOR such as, by way of example, confirmations or
instruments of conveyance or assignment. No termination of this Agreement by
expiration or otherwise shall release LICENSEE or LICENSOR from any of its
continuing obligations hereunder, if any, or limit, in any way any other remedy
one party may have against the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
LICENSEE's obligations to LICENSOR

                                       11
<PAGE>

12.1, and Articles 13 and 14 shall survive any termination or expiration of this
Agreement.

11.      EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

"Event of Default" under this Agreement:

         11.1.1 (a) A party's failure to make any payment due in a timely manner
or a party's material breach or material failure to punctually perform any of

of such breach or failure is received by the breaching party; or (b) a material
misrepresentation is made by a party in any representation or warranty contained
in this Agreement and the misrepresented facts or circumstances, if curable,
remain uncured thirty (30) days after written notice of such misrepresentation

misrepresentation is not curable, termination shall occur thirty (30) days after
such misrepresentation or breach at the option of the non-breaching party; or

         11.1.2 The failure by a party upon request to provide the other party
with adequate assurances of its performance of all obligations under this
Agreement upon: (a) such first party's filing of a voluntary petition in

                  expressly survive termination, and except with respect to
                  royalty payments due and owing to LICENSOR as of the
                  termination date or any subsequent period specified in Section
                  10.4.

12.      CONFIDENTIALITY.

<PAGE>

         12.1 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. (a) LICENSEE agrees for itself, its
sublicensees, and their employees and agents that for twenty (20) years from the
later of the Effective Date of this Agreement or the latest date of its receipt
of information disclosed to LICENSEE by LICENSOR pursuant to this Agreement,
such information shall be held in confidence; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, there

                                       12
<PAGE>

shall be no obligation to treat as confidential information which is or becomes
available to the public other than through a breach of this obligation, or which
was already possessed by LICENSEE in writing (or otherwise provable to be in the
possession of LICENSEE) prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement (and was
not received from LICENSOR) or which is shown by LICENSEE to have been received
by it from a third party who had the legal right to so disclose it without
restrictions and without breach of any agreement with LICENSOR or its licensees.
LICENSOR shall affix an appropriate legend on all written documentation given to
LICENSEE, which contains confidential information. LICENSEE acknowledges that
the list of patent applications contained on Schedule A is confidential
information of LICENSOR. Other than for the oral information conveyed during the
training conducted pursuant to Sections 8.3 and 8.4 hereof all of which shall be
deemed to be confidential information, if confidential information is otherwise
conveyed orally by LICENSOR after training has been completed, LICENSOR shall
specify to LICENSEE at the time such information is being conveyed (or in a
subsequent letter referring to the conversation) that the information conveyed
is confidential. It is understood and agreed that, unless otherwise provided in
a separate agreement between LICENSEE and LICENSOR, LICENSEE has no obligation
hereunder to provide LICENSOR with any confidential or proprietary information,
and that LICENSOR shall have no obligation hereunder to LICENSEE to maintain in
confidence or refrain from commercial or other use of any information which
LICENSOR is or becomes aware of under this Agreement. The terms and provisions
of this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties shall not be
considered confidential, and the parties hereto acknowledge that, pursuant to
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations promulgated
thereunder, LICENSOR may file copies of this Agreement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and with NASDAQ and with any other stock exchange on which
LICENSOR's securities may be listed. LICENSEE agrees that for the period of time
during which LICENSEE is obligated to keep information confidential hereunder,
LICENSEE will not make, use, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of products using
or directly or indirectly derived from Licensed Products, Light Valves, or
Components, or which otherwise comprise suspending particles, which when
subjected to a suitable electric or magnetic field, orient to produce a change
in the optical characteristics of the suspension ("SPD Technology") unless an
agreement between LICENSOR and LICENSEE permitting it to do so is in full force
and effect and the royalties, if any, provided in such agreement are being paid
to LICENSOR on such products. The foregoing restriction shall not apply to
products (i) which do not directly or indirectly incorporate SPD Technology,
such as, but not limited to, liquid crystal devices, or electrochromic devices,
or (ii) which incorporate technology involving suspended particles, which when
subjected to a suitable electric or magnetic field, orient to produce a change
in the optical characteristics of the suspension but which is independently
developed and which is not in any way directly or indirectly

<PAGE>

derived from any Technical Information of LICENSOR or its licensees,
sublicensees, or any of their affiliates. LICENSEE shall have the burden of
proving by clear and convincing evidence that the availability of any exception
of confidentiality exists or that the foregoing restrictions do not apply to a
particular product. Nothing contained in this section, however, shall be
construed as granting LICENSEE any rights or licenses with respect to any
Technical Information or patents of LICENSOR or its other licensees or their
sublicensees.

         (b) After LICENSEE's exercise of its Training Option under Section 8.1
of this Agreement, LICENSEE shall have the right to disclose to a subcontractor
information of LICENSOR received pursuant to Article 8 hereof; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that LICENSEE shall only disclose such information

                                       13
<PAGE>

as is strictly necessary to enable said subcontractor to perform its
manufacturing task, and provided that prior to disclosing any information to
said subcontractor, said subcontractor has signed a secrecy agreement with
LICENSEE at least as protective of LICENSOR's Technical Information as the
provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, said
subcontractor's specific agreement to be bound by the provisions of Section 12.1
hereof to the same extent as LICENSEE. For such purposes, LICENSEE may develop a
standard form of secrecy agreement for LICENSOR's approval, after which LICENSEE
may use such secrecy agreement with all subcontractors without LICENSOR's prior
approval of the secrecy agreement being necessary. LICENSEE shall have all
subcontractors sign said secrecy agreement prior to the disclosure of Technical
Information to said subcontractor, and LICENSEE shall send LICENSOR a copy of
every such secrecy agreement within thirty (30) days after the execution
thereof.

13.      WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS.

permitted to be disclosed by a party under this Section 13.1.3 may appear on
such party's (or its subsidiaries' or sublicensees') Internet web site, along
with links to the Internet web sites of the other party and its subsidiaries and
sublicensees.

         13.2     LICENSOR REPRESENTATIONS.  LICENSOR represents and warrants,
for the benefit of LICENSEE, that:

         13.2.1 TITLE. As of the date hereof, LICENSOR represents and warrants
that it has the right to convey the rights and licenses granted by this
Agreement, and otherwise to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
LICENSOR has caused its

<PAGE>

employees who are employed to do research, development, and other inventive work
to disclose to it any invention or information within the scope of this
Agreement and to assign to it rights in such inventions and information in order
that LICENSEE shall receive, by virtue of this Agreement, the licenses granted
to it under Section 2.1 hereof.

         13.3.2 INFRINGEMENT. As of the date hereof, LICENSOR is not ware of any

                                       14
<PAGE>

         13.2.3  PATENTS IN FORCE.  To the best of LICENSOR's knowledge, all of
the patents listed on Schedule A hereto are currently in force.

         13.3 NO WARRANTY. LICENSOR and LICENSEE make no guaranty or warranty to
one another under this Agreement (a) that LICENSEE will be able to develop,
manufacture, sell or otherwise commercialize Licensed Products, or (b) as to the
validity of any patent.

14.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         14.1 APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed,
governed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State
of New York, and LICENSOR and LICENSEE hereby submit to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in the County of Nassau and
State of New York for such purposes.

         14.2 CONFIDENTIALITY IN COURT PROCEEDING. In order to protect and
preserve the confidential information of a party which the parties recognize may
be exchanged pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the disclosing party
may request, and the receiving party shall not oppose, the court in any action
relating to this Agreement to enter a protective order to protect information
which is confidential information under Section 12.1 and to seal the record in
the action or to hold the proceedings, or portion of the proceedings, in camera;
provided, that the requested terms do not prejudice the receiving party's
interests. Nothing, however, shall preclude either party from thereafter moving
to unseal its own records or to have matter and information designated as
confidential under any relevant protective order designated otherwise in
accordance with the circumstances as they shall appear at that time.

         14.3 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is declared or
found to be illegal, unenforceable or void, the parties shall negotiate in good
faith to agree upon a substitute provision that is legal and enforceable and is
as nearly as possible consistent with the intentions underlying the original
provision. If the remainder of this Agreement is not materially affected by such
declaration or finding and is capable of substantial performance, then the
remainder shall be enforced to the extent permitted by law.

         14.4 WAIVER. Unless agreed to by the parties in writing to the
contrary, the failure of either party to insist in any one or more instances
upon the strict performance of any one or more of the provisions of this
Agreement, or to exercise any right contained in this Agreement or provided by
law, shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the
performance of such provision or right or the right subsequently to demand such
strict performance or exercise of such right, and

<PAGE>

the rights and obligations of the parties shall continue unchanged and remain in
full force and effect.

         14.5 CAPTIONS. The captions and headings in this Agreement are inserted
for convenience and reference only and in no way define or limit the scope or
content of this Agreement and shall not affect the interpretation of its
provisions.

         14.6 ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to
the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns. However, LICENSEE
agrees that it shall not assign this Agreement or its rights hereunder without
the prior written consent of LICENSOR except to a successor to substantially all

the rescission, simply sign where indicated below and fax this letter back to me

                                  Sincerely,

                                  /s/ Robert L. Saxe
