Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 15, 2009 at the Frankfurt International Motor Show, Pilkington Group Limited announced that it has acquired a new license from Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq:REFR) to offer SPD-Smart automotive end-products globally. Research Frontiers is the developer and licensor of patented VaryFast SPD-Smart light-control film technology.

This license represents a significant expansion of Pilkington's SPD business. In 2004, Pilkington acquired a license from Research Frontiers to work with SPD technology to make laminated SPD-SmartGlass panels. During this development phase, Pilkington gained lamination expertise and also worked extensively with customers to co-develop SPD-Smart products that meet the needs and specifications of the automotive industry. With this new license, Pilkington now has the ability to offer SPD-Smart end-products including sunroofs, glass roof panels, adaptive sunvisors incorporated into a vehicle's windscreen, and side and rear windows.

SPD-Smart automotive products are instantly tunable manually or automatically to any level of light transmission between clear and extremely dark - blocking more than 99.5% of incoming visible light. Due to its ability to block heat as well as visible light, SPD-SmartGlass can reduce vehicle interior heat build-up and thus cooling requirements. These eco-friendly products could also reduce the size of air conditioning systems and thus save weight, fuel and reduce CO2 emissions. Also, because they are in the most energy efficient state when the engine is off, the vehicle is cooler upon entering.

In addition to light, glare and heat control, SPD-Smart automotive products provide greater security due to their on-demand privacy capability, and protect passengers and interiors from harmful ultraviolet radiation. Award-winning SPD-Smart technology offers exceptionally innovative design opportunities and empowers users by providing rapid, real-time control over the environment to suit one's preference or requirements.

The worldwide non-exclusive license grants Pilkington the right to manufacture and sell SPD-Smart automotive glass products globally. As part of the NSG Group, Pilkington is one of the world's leading manufacturers of glass and glazing systems.

Speaking from the floor of the Frankfurt Motor Show, Joseph M. Harary, President and Chief Executive Officer of Research Frontiers Inc., noted: "Pilkington and their parent company, NSG Group, are among the most successful glass companies in the world, and have considerable experience in all types of high-end and functional glass products, including smart glass. They have a long and stellar history of bringing new and practical innovations to the glass industry and to their customers. Research Frontiers has invested over $75 million to develop high-performance light control with our SPD-Smart film technology. With Pilkington's addition to our extensive list of licensees around the world, Research Frontiers' patented SPD-Smart light-control technology has now been licensed to virtually every major glass company in the world for the production of environmentally-friendly end-products."

"Our SPD teams in the UK, Germany, Japan and the US have been working closely and intensely with Research Frontiers and our lead OEM customer to introduce SPD-Smart end-products to the global automotive market," commented Anthony R. Shaw, Vice President Technology Automotive for Pilkington. "SPD technology is a high-performing technology that offers many distinctive performance, safety, comfort and energy-saving benefits desired by OEMs and their customers. We see exciting opportunities ahead in the very near future."

The worldwide license provides for a 10% royalty payable to Research Frontiers on sales of licensed products. Other license provisions,including fees and minimum annual royalties payable to Research Frontiers, were not disclosed.

"Licensed Product" means only a Light Valve Transportation Vehicle 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 but not limited to, other window products not specifically defined herein, such as, but not limited to, Light Valve Architectural Window Products, window products for other vehicles not specifically included in the definition of Light Valve Transportation Vehicle Window Product, and non-window products such as but not limited to displays, eyewear, sunvisors, 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 contained herein shall permit LICENSEE to sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of a Light Valve which is not incorporated or intended to be incorporated as described above into a Light Valve Transportation Vehicle Window Product.

"Licensed Territory " means all countries of the world.

"LICENSEE" where used throughout this Agreement shall be deemed to mean any or all of Pilkington Group Limited and the Affiliates together.

"Light Valve" means a variable light transmission device which has been developed by or for LICENSOR and in respect of which the patents and patent applications listed on Schedule A and the Technical Information of LICENSOR apply 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 reflected 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 or combined with 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 a 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.

"Light Valve Transportation Vehicle Window Product" means a Light Valve used or intended for use as a window (including sunroofs, vehicle roofs, roof panels, windshields, and side and rear window panes which are an integral part of the internal or external structure of such vehicle) whether the window is supplied as original equipment or a replacement window pane, integrally incorporated in a transportation vehicle of a type not primarily designed or primarily intended for military use. The term "Light Valve Transportation Vehicle Window Product" shall not include a Light Valve used or intended for use as a sunvisor, but may include Light Valves which are used or intended for use in a non-military transportation vehicle as, or as part of, or are laminated to, or the surface area of which is primarily attached to, a window, sunroof or windshield.

The aforementioned $100 figure specified in clause (B) above shall be adjusted upward as of each January 1st hereafter beginning on January 1, 2010 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 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. factory, 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 all deductions therefrom, if any. 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.

References to "Sections" and to "Schedules" shall be to the sections and schedules of this Agreement except where expressly stated otherwise.

"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.

Such an audit shall be made upon reasonable advance notice to LICENSEE and during usual business hours no more frequently than annually. The cost of the audit shall be borne by LICENSOR, unless the audit shall disclose a breach by LICENSEE of any term of this Agreement, or an underpayment error in excess of two percent of the total monies paid to LICENSOR by LICENSEE during the audited period, in which case LICENSEE shall bear the full cost of such audit. LICENSEE agrees to pay LICENSOR all additional monies that are disclosed by the audit to be due and owing to LICENSOR within thirty days of the receipt of the report.

3.6 Customer Referrals. Although LICENSOR is under no obligation to do so, LICENSOR may from time to time refer customers to LICENSEE. In the event that such customer purchases, leases or rents products or services from LICENSEE other than a Licensed Product upon which a royalty is paid by LICENSEE to LICENSOR, LICENSEE shall include the details of such transaction in its next monthly report under Section 3.5 hereof, and shall pay LICENSOR a sales commission equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount received from such customer for which a royalty under Section 3.1 hereof is not paid.

LICENSEE, and its affiliates, successors and assigns and sublicensees (each, an "Indemnifying Party"), each hereby indemnify and agree to hold harmless LICENSOR and its shareholders, officers, directors, agents and employees (each, an "Indemnified Party"), against any liability, damage, loss, fine, penalty, claim, cost or expense (including reasonable costs of investigation and settlement and attorneys', accountants' and other experts' fees and expenses) arising out of any action or inaction by any Indemnifying Party relating to this Agreement including an Indemnifying Party's manufacture, sale, use, lease or other disposition of Licensed Products, and related materials, or other use of the information and rights granted hereunder. Any knowledge of LICENSEE's or its sublicensee's activities by LICENSOR or its representatives shall in no way impose any liability on LICENSOR or reduce the responsibilities of LICENSEE hereunder or relieve it from any of its obligations and warranties under this Agreement.

7 FUTURE PATENTS.

7.1 Future Patents. Each party, at its cost, shall have the right to file patent applications in the United States and in foreign countries covering any invention made by such party.

7.2 Improvements and Modifications. (a) Any future improvements or modifications invented or developed by or on behalf of LICENSEE, LICENSEE's sublicensees and LICENSOR after the Effective Date of this Agreement, if any, which relate in any way to or are useful in the design, operation, manufacture and assembly of Licensed Products, and/or to the suspensions or other components used or usable in Licensed Products shall not be included in this Agreement. Upon written request by the non-inventing party, LICENSOR and LICENSEE shall negotiate with each other regarding the grant of nonexclusive rights and licenses to use such improvements and modifications, but neither party shall be obligated to grant such rights and licenses to one another. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, LICENSOR shall have the right to use, license and sublicense any improvement, modification or invention which is jointly developed by LICENSEE or its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, contractors, or consultants, on the one hand, and LICENSOR or its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, contractors or consultants, on the other hand.

(b) During the term of this Agreement each of the parties hereto agrees to inform the other in writing (without any obligation to reveal details which would be confidential information), at least as frequently as once a year in January of each calendar year, if any significant improvements or modifications have been made relating to Licensed Products, and as to the general nature of any such improvements and modifications.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, LICENSOR may, but shall not be required to, voluntarily and without additional cost to LICENSEE disclose certain information relating to future improvements and modifications and license to LICENSEE rights in such certain future improvements and modifications, and any information so disclosed will be considered Technical Information which LICENSEE shall be obligated to keep confidential pursuant to Section 12.1 of this Agreement. In connection therewith, LICENSOR, may voluntarily add patents and/or patent applications to Schedule A hereof. No disclosure of any information by LICENSOR shall in any way establish a course of dealing or otherwise require LICENSOR to make any future disclosure of information under this Agreement.

7.3 Foreign Patent Applications. During the term of this Agreement, LICENSEE shall have the right to designate that any patent application now or hereafter listed on or incorporated into Schedule A shall be filed or maintained in any foreign country included in the Licensed Territory. If so designated and if legally possible to do so, LICENSOR agrees to promptly file, prosecute and maintain such applications and resulting patents, and LICENSEE shall pay to LICENSOR the complete cost, including reasonable attorney's fees, to file, prosecute and maintain during the term of this Agreement any such patent application and resulting patents specifically so designated by LICENSEE.

8 TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER.

8.1. Materials. Upon request by LICENSEE, during the term of this Agreement and when mutually convenient to LICENSOR and LICENSEE, LICENSOR shall supply LICENSEE with small quantities of materials related to Licensed Products for experimental use only by LICENSEE, and shall charge LICENSEE $1,500 per man/day plus the reasonable cost of any other materials used in making such materials, plus the reasonable cost of shipping such materials to LICENSEE. Upon request by LICENSEE, during the term of this Agreement and when mutually convenient to LICENSOR and LICENSEE, LICENSOR may make its personnel available to consult with LICENSEE and its contractors, with compensation to LICENSOR for such consultation to be mutually agreed to by LICENSOR and LICENSEE. Each invoice submitted by LICENSOR for such service shall include detailed explanations of the charges, and, if requested by LICENSEE, copies of receipts. The parties acknowledge that LICENSOR has no obligation to transfer to LICENSEE any Technical Information other than as may be embodied in such sample materials, and that, other than sample materials, if any, that may be supplied by LICENSOR as aforesaid, LICENSEE will be acquiring materials from authorized suppliers other than LICENSOR.

8.2 Inquiries. LICENSEE and LICENSOR may also at any time during the term of this Agreement make reasonable inquiry by telephone, facsimile or mail to one another in regard to any information or data furnished pursuant to this Agreement.

8.3 Visits. During all visits by either party to the facilities of the other party, visitors shall comply with all reasonable rules of the host company, and each party to this Agreement will indemnify and hold the other party harmless from any liability, claim or loss whatsoever (i) for any injury to, or, death of, any of its employees or agents while such persons are present at the facility of the other party; and (ii) for any damages to its own property or to the property of any such employee or agent which may occur during the presence of any such person at the facility of the other party, regardless of how such damage occurs.

8.4 Sole Purpose. Any documentation or information supplied pursuant to this Agreement by either party to the other shall be used solely for the purposes set forth in this Agreement.

9 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION RESPONSIBILITIES.

9.1 Proprietary Rights: Notices. Each party shall provide appropriate notices of patents, or other similar notice of the patent rights of the other party on all products utilizing the patented inventions of the other party. Either party may add its own patent notice to any copy or embodiment which contains its patented inventions.

9.2 LICENSOR Exclusive Owner. LICENSEE hereby acknowledges LICENSOR as purporting to be the sole and exclusive owner of the patents and patent 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 the patents now or hereafter listed in Schedule A hereof, and (B) the expiration of the period in which LICENSEE is obligated to maintain confidential Technical Information of LICENSOR pursuant to Section 12.1 hereof.

10.2 Termination by LICENSEE. LICENSEE may terminate this Agreement effective as of December 31, 2015 or as of any anniversary thereof by giving LICENSOR prior notice thereof unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. Such notice shall be made in writing and shall be given between 60 and 90 days prior to the effective date for which such termination is to be effective. If LICENSEE decides to terminate this Agreement for any reason, LICENSEE shall provide LICENSOR, along with the aforementioned notice of termination, with a written report describing the reasons for such termination.

10.3 Termination by LICENSOR. LICENSOR may terminate this Agreement at any time effective as of December 31, 2015 or as of any anniversary thereof upon at least 30 days' notice to LICENSEE for any reason, provided, however, that LICENSOR shall give LICENSEE at least one years' notice of any early termination under this Section 10.3 if LICENSEE is producing and selling Licensed Products hereunder , and provided further that if LICENSOR gives LICENSEE a notice of termination pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 10.3 and the effective termination date of such notice would be prior to the expiration of a binding contractual obligation of LICENSEE to supply Licensed Products to a customer which contract is in effect at the time LICENSOR's termination notice is given, then the LICENSEE may, by providing LICENSOR within 10 business days with a copy of the relevant portion of such contract, extend the effective date of LICENSOR's termination to the date on which the later of any aforesaid contractual obligations of LICENSEE to any such customer expires, but in no event shall the foregoing extension imply any extension of time beyond the time period specified in Section 10.1 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 LICENSEE repeatedly provides inaccurate reports hereunder, or if there has been a cessation by LICENSEE of general operations or of work related to Licensed Products, and "cessation" shall not include any temporary cessation of operations or work by LICENSEE as may occur from time to time.

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 to LICENSEE under this Agreement or destroy the same (except for any which is incorporated into samples which have been supplied to a customer of LICENSEE as permitted hereunder), together with all reproductions, copies and summaries thereof (insofar as it is possible to do so); 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 or expiration, 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 finish and deliver to LICENSOR any Licensed Products in the process of manufacture as soon as possible and, in any case, not later than 60 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 or expires, upon such termination or expiration, 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 or expiration of this Agreement relating to Light Valves, or Licensed Products (excluding any technology that does not relate directly to the creation of variable light transmission in an SPD window, including but not limited to: infrared reflective coatings, antennas, heating grids, interlayer, glass fabrication technology, glass compositions, glazing systems technology, including encapsulation, structural enhancements, sealants, and adhesives) and upon such termination or expiration, LICENSEE shall 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. LICENSEE may exclude from such license any improvements to lamination or components, and processing know-how developed by or on behalf of LICENSEE but only to the extent that LICENSEE or any third party has not filed for patent protection on such items and maintains them as trade secrets. 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 under Sections 3.1 (only until the end of the month in which the last of all sales under this Agreement occurs), 3.5, 3.6, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 6.1, 6.2, 7.2, 8.3, 8.4, 10.4, 12.1, and Articles 13 and 14 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

11 EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

11.1 Events of Default. Each of the following events shall constitute an "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 its duties and obligations under this Agreement, which material breach or failure, if curable, remains uncured for thirty (30) days after written notice 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 is received by the breaching party; and, in either case, if such breach or 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 bankruptcy; (b) the filing of any involuntary petition to have such first party declared bankrupt which has not been dismissed within ninety (90) days of its filing; (c) the appointment of a receiver or trustee for such first party which has not been rescinded within ninety (90) days of the date of such appointment; or (d) such first party otherwise becoming insolvent or otherwise making an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

11.2 Default by a Party. If there occurs an Event of Default with respect to a party, the other party may:

(a) seek damages; and/or

(b) seek an injunction or an order for mandatory or specific performance; and/or

(c) terminate this Agreement and the licenses granted to LICENSEE hereunder whereupon the non-defaulting party shall have no further obligations under this Agreement except those which 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.

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 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 March 25, 2004 (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, but the failure to so affix such legend shall not affect the confidential nature of such information. LICENSEE acknowledges that the list of patent applications contained on Schedule A is confidential information of LICENSOR. If confidential information is otherwise conveyed orally by LICENSOR, 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 (subject to the terms of Section 13.1.3 and unless LICENSEE has informed LICENSOR on a non-confidential basis of the nature of such information beforehand and LICENSOR has agreed in writing to receive such information from LICENSEE which LICENSEE wishes to be considered confidential, in which case it shall be kept confidential for no more than a period of three years from the date of disclosure unless another period of confidentiality is otherwise agreed to by LICENSOR and LICENSEE at the time of disclosure). The terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties shall not be considered confidential except that LICENSEE may not disclose the minimum annual royalty payments specified in Article 3 hereof without LICENSOR's prior written consent, 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 knowingly make, use, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of products using or directly or indirectly derived from Licensed Products, Light Valves, or Components (other than where all obligations of confidentiality in respect of such confidential information or sample materials as are so provided to LICENSEE from LICENSOR or its licensees and their sublicensees and so made, used, sold, leased or otherwise disposed of by LICENSEE or its sublicensees have validly terminated other than through a breach by LICENSEE or any third party of any obligation of confidentiality), or which otherwise comprise suspended 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 derived from any Technical Information of LICENSOR or its licensees, sublicensees, or any of their affiliates. LICENSEE agrees to make all reasonable and careful enquiries to determine whether any SPD Technology is derived in any way from Technical Information or patents of the LICENSOR. 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 (which is not in the public domain other than through a breach by LICENSEE or any third party of any obligation of confidentiality) or patents of LICENSOR or its other licensees or their sublicensees.

(b) LICENSEE will have the right to provide materials to, and to disclose information to, a subcontractor of LICENSEE or to a customer of LICENSEE or subcontractor of such customer (each of the foregoing being referred to as a "Recipient") relating to this Agreement; provided, however, that LICENSEE shall only disclose such information as is strictly necessary to enable said Recipient to perform its manufacturing task, and shall ensure that prior to disclosing any information to said Recipient, said Recipient 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 Recipient'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 Recipients without LICENSOR's prior approval of the secrecy agreement being necessary. LICENSEE shall have all Recipients sign said secrecy agreement prior to the disclosure of Technical Information to said Recipient, and LICENSEE shall send LICENSOR a copy of every such secrecy agreement within thirty (30) days after the execution thereof.

13 WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS.

13.1 Reciprocal Representations. Each party represents and warrants to the other that:

13.1.1 Valid Agreement.

14 MISCELLANEOUS.

14.1 Applicable Law.

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 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 of its business relating to Light Valves and whose obligations hereunder are guaranteed to LICENSOR by LICENSEE. LICENSOR may assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any successor to any of its business interests or to any company controlling or controlled by LICENSOR. All assignees shall expressly assume in writing the performance of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement to be performed by the assigning party, and an originally signed instrument of such assumption and assignment shall be delivered to the non-assigning party within 30 days of the execution of such instrument.

14.7 Schedules. All Schedules attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part of this Agreement as if set forth fully in this Agreement.

14.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between LICENSOR and LICENSEE with respect to the subject matter hereof, supersedes all prior agreements, proposals, understandings, letters of intent, negotiations and discussions with respect to the subject matter hereof and can be modified, amended, supplemented or changed only by an agreement in writing which makes specific reference to this Agreement and which is executed in writing by the parties; provided, however, that either party may unilaterally waive in writing any provision imposing an obligation on the other.

PILKINGTON ACQUIRES LICENSE FROM RESEARCH FRONTIERS

TO PRODUCE AND OFFER ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
SPD-SMART AUTOMOTIVE GLASS PRODUCTS

Frankfurt, Germany September 15, 2009. Today at the Frankfurt International Motor Show, Pilkington Group Limited announced that it has acquired a new license from Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq:REFR) to offer SPD-Smart automotive end-products globally. Research Frontiers is the developer and licensor of patented VaryFast SPD-Smart light-control film technology.

This license represents a significant expansion of Pilkington's SPD business. In 2004, Pilkington acquired a license from Research Frontiers to work with SPD technology to make laminated SPD-SmartGlass panels. During this development phase, Pilkington gained lamination expertise and also worked extensively with customers to co-develop SPD-Smart products that meet the needs and specifications of the automotive industry. With this new license, Pilkington now has the ability to offer SPD-Smart end-products including sunroofs, glass roof panels, adaptive sunvisors incorporated into a vehicle's windscreen, and side and rear windows.

SPD-Smart automotive products are instantly tunable manually or automatically to any level of light transmission between clear and extremely dark - blocking more than 99.5% of incoming visible light. Due to its ability to block heat as well as visible light, SPD-SmartGlass can reduce vehicle interior heat build-up and thus cooling requirements. These eco-friendly products could also reduce the size of air conditioning systems and thus save weight, fuel and reduce CO2 emissions. Also, because they are in the most energy efficient state when the engine is off, the vehicle is cooler upon entering.

In addition to light, glare and heat control, SPD-Smart automotive products provide greater security due to their on-demand privacy capability, and protect passengers and interiors from harmful ultraviolet radiation. Award-winning SPD-Smart technology offers exceptionally innovative design opportunities and empowers users by providing rapid, real-time control over the environment to suit one's preference or requirements.

The worldwide non-exclusive license grants Pilkington the right to manufacture and sell SPD-Smart automotive glass products globally. As part of the NSG Group, Pilkington is one of the world's leading manufacturers of glass and glazing systems.

Speaking from the floor of the Frankfurt Motor Show, Joseph M. Harary, President and Chief Executive Officer of Research Frontiers Inc., noted: "Pilkington and their parent company, NSG Group, are among the most successful glass companies in the world, and have considerable experience in all types of high-end and functional glass products, including smart glass. They have a long and stellar history of bringing new and practical innovations to the glass industry and to their customers. Research Frontiers has invested over $75 million to develop high-performance light control with our SPD-Smart film technology. With Pilkington's addition to our extensive list of licensees around the world, Research Frontiers' patented SPD-Smart light-control technology has now been licensed to virtually every major glass company in the world for the production of environmentally-friendly end-products."

"Our SPD teams in the UK, Germany, Japan and the US have been working closely and intensely with Research Frontiers and our lead OEM customer to introduce SPD-Smart end-products to the global automotive market," commented Anthony R. Shaw, Vice President Technology Automotive for Pilkington. "SPD technology is a high-performing technology that offers many distinctive performance, safety, comfort and energy-saving benefits desired by OEMs and their customers. We see exciting opportunities ahead in the very near future."

About SPD Technology and Research Frontiers Inc.

Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq: REFR) develops and licenses suspended particle device (SPD) technology used in VaryFast SPD-Smart controllable glass and plastic products. Benefits include dynamic control of light, glare and heat passing through many types of glazings, noise reduction, greater security due to both privacy and structural integrity, and the protection of interiors and occupants from heat and harmful ultraviolet radiation. SPD technology, made possible by a flexible light-control film invented and patented by Research Frontiers, allows the user to instantly, precisely and uniformly control the shading of glass or plastic, either manually or automatically. This patented film can be used to transform into "smart" products a variety of products used every day in homes, buildings, cars, aircraft, boats, trains and motorcoaches.

Current product applications for SPD technology include:
SPD-Smart windows, sunshades, skylights, atria, curtainwalls and interior partitions for homes and buildings; automotive windows, sunroofs, roof systems, sunvisors and sunshades; and aircraft and marine windows and window shades. Potential future applications include: eyewear products including sunglasses, ski goggles and motorcycle helmets, mirrors; flat panel displays for electronic products; and light-control filters for various industrial and consumer applications.

SPD-Smart film technology was awarded the "Best of What's New Award" for home technology from Popular Science magazine, received the 2007 North American Frost & Sullivan Award for Excellence in Technology for glass, and was also recognized as one of the top technologies by the Society of Automotive Engineers' Aerospace Engineering magazine. SPD technology is covered by over 500 patents and patent applications held by Research Frontiers worldwide. Currently 35 companies are licensed to use Research Frontiers' patented SPD light-control technology in emulsions, films, or end-products.
