Proxy Statement Pursuant to Section 14(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Amendment No. )

The Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Microvision, Inc. (the "Company"), will be held at the Meydenbauer Center, 11100 NE 6^th Street, Bellevue, Washington on June 24, 2003, at 9:00 a.m. for the following purposes:

1. To adopt and approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger with a newly-formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company to effect a reincorporation of the Company from the state of Washington to the state of Delaware;

Details of the business to be conducted at the meeting are more fully described in the accompanying Proxy Statement. Please read it carefully before casting your vote.

If you were a shareholder of record on April 22, 2003, you will be entitled to vote on the above matters. A list of shareholders as of the record date will be available for shareholder inspection at the headquarters of the Company, 19910 North Creek Parkway, Bothell, Washington 98011, during ordinary business hours, from June 15, 2003 to the date of our Annual Meeting. The list also will be available for inspection at the Annual Meeting.

Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, your vote is very important.

After reading the enclosed Proxy Statement, you are encouraged to vote by (1) toll-free telephone call, (2) the Internet or (3) completing, signing and dating the enclosed proxy card and returning it as soon as possible in the accompanying postage prepaid (if mailed in the U.S) return envelope. If you are voting by telephone or the Internet, please follow the instructions on the proxy card. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted by following the instructions provided below.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the proposed merger and reincorporation because they and management believe that it is essential to be able to draw upon well-established principles of corporate governance in making legal and business decisions, that the established principles of Delaware corporate law provide a reliable foundation on which the Company's governance decisions can be based, that shareholders may benefit from the predictability provided by Delaware's principles of corporate governance. The Board of Directors also believes that it is important, in connection with the reincorporation, to increase the number of shares of common stock and preferred stock that the Company is authorized to issue. Please note that reincorporation in Delaware will not affect the physical location of the Company, and that the Company does not intend to move its corporate offices from Washington.

With respect to the proposed merger and reincorporation, shareholders are or may be entitled to assert dissenters' rights pursuant to Chapter 23B.13 of the Revised Code of Washington. See the discussion of this proposal in the Proxy Statement for more information about dissenters' rights and a copy of such Chapter.

At the meeting, you will have an opportunity to ask questions about the Company and its operations. You may attend the meeting and vote your shares in person even if you return your proxy card or vote by telephone or Internet. Your proxy (including a proxy granted by telephone or the Internet) may be revoked by sending in another signed proxy card with a later date, sending a letter revoking your proxy to the Company's Secretary in Bothell, Washinton, voting again by telephone or Internet, or attending the annual meeting and voting in person.

We look forward to seeing you. Thank you for your ongoing support of and interest in Microvision, Inc.

Proposal—Adoption and Approval of the Merger Agreement and Reincorporation

The Board of Directors has approved and recommends that the shareholders approve changing the Company's state of incorporation from Washington to Delaware through the merger described below (the "Reincorporation Proposal" or the "Proposed Reincorporation"). Throughout this portion of the Proxy Statement, the term "Microvision-WA" refers to the corporation now incorporated under the laws of the state of Washington and the term "Microvision-DE" refers to Microvision, Inc., the newly-formed Delaware corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Microvision-WA, and proposed successor to Microvision-WA.

If the Reincorporation Proposal is approved, Microvision-WA will merge into Microvision-DE (the "Merger"). Upon completion of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), Microvision-WA will cease to exist and Microvision-DE will be the surviving entity and continue to operate the business of the Company under the name Microvision, Inc. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger between Microvision-WA and Microvision-DE (the "Merger Agreement"), each outstanding share of Microvision-WA common stock, no par value, will automatically be converted into one share of Microvision-DE common stock, $.001 par value. You will not be required to exchange your existing stock certificates for new certificates. After the Merger, Microvision-DE's common stock will be traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "MVIS."

At the Effective Time, Microvision-DE will also assume and continue the outstanding stock options and all other employee benefit plans of Microvision-WA. Each outstanding and unexercised option, warrant or other right to purchase shares of Microvision-WA common stock will become an option, warrant or right to purchase the same number of shares of Microvision-DE common stock on the same terms and conditions and at the same exercise price applicable to any such Microvision-WA option, warrant or right as of the Effective Time.

The Merger Agreement and the Proposed Reincorporation have been unanimously approved by the Board of Directors. If approved by the shareholders, it is anticipated that the Effective Time of the Merger will be as soon as practicable following the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. However, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger may be abandoned or the Merger Agreement may be amended by the Board of Directors (except that certain principal terms may not be amended without further shareholder approval) either before or after shareholder approval has been obtained and prior to the Effective Time of the Proposed Reincorporation.

Shareholders are urged to read carefully the following sections of this Proxy Statement before voting on the Reincorporation Proposal. For example, the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Microvision-DE will be materially different from the Microvision-WA governing documents.

Shareholders are or may be entitled to assert dissenters' rights under Chapter 23B.13 of the Revised Code of Washington, and this Proxy Statement is accompanied by a copy of that chapter. Shareholders of Microvision-WA meeting certain requirements may have dissenters' rights of appraisal with respect to the Reincorporation Proposal and the discussion of dissenters' rights should be read closely. See the more complete discussion under "Dissenters' Rights" below.

The summary set forth below is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Microvision-WA Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the Microvision-DE Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, Washington law and Delaware law. The Microvision-DE Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws are included with this Proxy Statement as Appendix B and Appendix C.

The Board of Directors and management believe that it is essential to be able to draw upon well-established principles of corporate governance in making legal and business decisions. The Board of Directors and management believe that the established principles of Delaware corporate law provide a reliable foundation on which the Company's governance decisions can be based. The Company believes that shareholders may benefit from the predictability provided by Delaware's principles of corporate governance. The Board of Directors also believes that it is important, in connection with the Reincorporation, to increase the number of shares of common stock and preferred stock that the Company is authorized to issue.

For many years, Delaware has followed a policy of encouraging incorporation in that state and, in furtherance of that policy, has been a leader in adopting, construing and implementing comprehensive, flexible corporate laws responsive to the legal and business needs of corporations organized under its jurisdiction. Many corporations have chosen Delaware initially as a state of incorporation or have subsequently changed corporate domicile to Delaware in a manner similar to that proposed by the Company. Because of Delaware's prominence as the state of incorporation for many major corporations, both the legislature and courts in Delaware have demonstrated an ability and a willingness to act quickly and effectively to meet changing business needs. The Delaware courts have developed considerable expertise in dealing with corporate issues and a substantial body of case law has developed construing Delaware law and establishing public policies with respect to corporate legal affairs.

Both Washington and Delaware law permit a corporation to include provisions in its governing documents that reduce or limit the personal monetary liability of directors and officers in certain circumstances. However, the Company believes that, for the reasons described above, Delaware law regarding a corporation's ability to limit director liability and indemnify directors and officers is more developed and provides more certainty and predictability to individuals serving as directors than Washington law. While the Company has not encountered difficulty in retaining directors and officers, the Company believes that obtaining the protections available under Delaware law will assist it in keeping and attracting well-qualified directors. Please see "Interest of the Board of Directors and Officers" below for additional discussion of limiting officer and director liability and indemnification.

The Board believes that Delaware law strikes an appropriate balance with respect to personal liability of directors and officers, and that reincorporating in Delaware will enhance the Company's ability to recruit and retain directors and officers in the future, while providing appropriate protection for shareholders from possible abuses by directors and officers. Delaware law permits a corporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of its directors to the corporation or any of its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director of the corporation. However, directors' personal liability cannot be eliminated under Delaware law for bad faith conduct, conduct the person did not reasonably believe to be in, or not opposed to, the best interest of the corporation, and, with respect to criminal actions, conduct that the person had no reasonable cause to believe was lawful.

The Company has 31,250,000 shares of common stock authorized to be issued. As of April 15, 2003, approximately 17.8 million shares of common stock were issued and outstanding; approximately 9.9 million shares were reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding options and warrants and reserved for future grants under the Company's stock option plans; and approximately 3.6 million shares of common stock remained available for issuance. After the consummation of the Proposed Reincorporation, the Company would have 100,000,000 shares of authorized common stock. While the Company does not have any specific plans to issue additional shares of capital stock, the Board of Directors believes that it is desirable to have available a substantial number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock that may be issued from time to time to support the Company's long term growth plan and to meet the full range of the Company's capital needs for the foreseeable future, to take advantage of acquisition opportunities, to provide for stock splits or stock dividends, to provide for stock options and other equity incentives due to future growth, and for other general corporate purposes. In the event the Company does issue additional shares, existing stockholders may experience dilution of their ownership in the Company.

The Reincorporation Proposal will effect a change in the legal domicile of the Company, but not its physical location. The Proposed Reincorporation will not result in any change in the business, management, fiscal year, assets or liabilities (except to the extent of legal and other costs of effecting the reincorporation and maintaining ongoing corporate status) or location of the principal facilities of the Company.

If the Proposed Reincorporation is approved, the directors who are elected by Microvision-WA at the Annual Meeting will become the directors of Microvision-DE. The officers of Microvision-WA immediately prior to the Merger will be the officers of Microvision-DE immediately after the Merger.

All stock options, warrants or other rights to acquire common stock of Microvision-WA will automatically be converted into options, warrants or rights to purchase the same number of shares of Microvision-DE common stock at the same price per share, upon the same terms, and subject to the same conditions. Microvision-WA's other employee benefit arrangements also will be continued by Microvision-DE upon the terms and subject to the conditions currently in effect.

The charter documents of Microvision-DE, however, will differ materially from those of Microvision-WA to conform to Delaware law and to make other changes the Board deems appropriate, as described in more detail below.

If the Merger Agreement and the Proposed Reincorporation are adopted and approved, the Company would be subject to the Delaware Business Combination Statute which may deter certain acquisitions of the Company in transactions that are not approved by the Board of Directors. In addition, Delaware law has been criticized on the grounds that it does not afford minority shareholders all the same substantive rights and protections that are available under the laws of a number of other states (including Washington). For example, as a Delaware corporation, the Company would not be required under Delaware law to obtain shareholder approval, or to grant appraisal rights, in connection with certain kinds of mergers and corporate reorganizations which under Washington law may be subject to those requirements. Additional material differences between the Delaware law and Washington law are described in this Proxy Statement. The Board of Directors believes that the advantages of reincorporation to the Company and its shareholders outweigh its possible disadvantages.

THE GOVERNING DOCUMENTS OF MICROVISION-WA AND MICROVISION-DE AND RELEVANT CORPORATE LAWS

The provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Microvision-DE and the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Microvision-WA differ in certain material respects. Although all of the differences are not set forth in the Proxy Statement, the following summary outlines the significant changes in the charter documents that will govern the Company in the event that the Proposed Reincorporation is approved and effected.

This summary references the two relevant corporate codes: the Washington Business Corporation Act ("WBCA" or "Washington law"), which governs Microvision-WA, and the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL" or "Delaware law"), which governs Microvision-DE. The corporate laws of Washington and Delaware differ in many respects. Although all of the differences are not set forth in this Proxy Statement, certain provisions that could materially affect the rights of shareholders are summarized below.

The Articles of Incorporation of Microvision-WA (the "Microvision-WA Articles") currently authorize the Company to issue up to 31,250,000 shares of common stock, no par value, and 31,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock, no par value. None of Microvision-WA's Preferred Stock is issued or outstanding.

The Certificate of Incorporation of Microvision-DE (the "Microvision-DE Certificate") authorizes the issuance of up to 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, and up to 25,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value. Microvision-DE currently has 100 shares of common stock issued to Microvision-WA. None of Microvision-DE's Preferred Stock is issued or outstanding. As provided in the Microvision-WA Articles, Microvision-DE's Certificate provides that the Board of Directors is entitled to determine the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, of the authorized and unissued Preferred Stock.

Washington law provides that a corporation's articles of incorporation may include a provision that prospectively eliminates or limits, to a degree not inconsistent with law, the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for conduct as a director. The provision, however, may not eliminate or limit liability of a director for acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct by a director, a knowing violation of law by a director, for unlawful distributions, or for any transaction from which the director will personally receive a benefit in money, property or services to which the director is not legally entitled. Microvision-WA's Articles include such a provision limiting director liability.

Under Delaware law, a corporation may adopt a provision in its certificate of incorporation that prospectively eliminates or limits, with certain exceptions, the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of the director's fiduciary duty as a director. Under the DGCL, however, a corporation is not allowed to eliminate or limit director monetary liability for (i) breaches of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) unlawful dividends, stock repurchases or redemptions; or (iv) transactions from which the director received an improper personal benefit. No such provision may eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when such provision becomes effective. The Microvision-DE Certificate eliminates the liability of officers and directors to the fullest extent permissible under Delaware law subject to the DGCL limitations.

Under Washington law, a corporation may indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against liability if the person (i) acted in good faith, (ii) reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in the individual's official capacity with the corporation, that the individual's conduct was in its best interests and, in all other cases, that the individual's conduct was at least not opposed to its best interests and (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the individual had no reasonable cause to believe the individual's conduct was unlawful. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a corporation may not indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the individual was adjudged liable to the corporation or in connection with any other proceeding charging improper personal benefit to the individual, whether or not involving action in the individual's official capacity, in which the individual was adjudged liable on the basis that any personal benefit was improperly received by the individual.

The Microvision-WA Articles authorize the Company to indemnify its directors as determined by the Board of Directors. Microvision-WA's Bylaws generally provide that the Company shall indemnify its directors and may indemnify its officers, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding in which they are made parties by reason of being or having been a director (or, if applicable, an officer) of the corporation.

Under Delaware law, a corporation may indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent made or threatened to be made party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding so long as such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In the case of a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation (for example, a stockholder derivative suit), a corporation may indemnify an officer, director, employee or agent if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation except that, where the person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation, only the court in the proceeding may determine to what extent, despite adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, indemnification, if any, is proper. A director, officer, employee, or agent who is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any proceeding that is subject to the DGCL's indemnification provisions, must be indemnified by the corporation for reasonable expenses incurred therein, including attorneys' fees.

Microvision-DE's Certificate provides for the fullest indemnification by the Company allowable under the DGCL for any person involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, because of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer of Microvision-DE or serving in such capacity, or as an employee or trustee, for another entity at the request of Microvision-DE. Such indemnification continues after the person has ceased to be a director or officer and also is for the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of the person. Such person is also entitled to advancements of expenses provided that the person makes an undertaking to repay such advancements in the event that a court determines that indemnification was impermissible in the matter.

Under Washington law, the number of directors is to be fixed in the articles of incorporation or bylaws but requires that there is at least one director.

Similarly, Delaware law allows the number of directors to be fixed in the manner provided in the bylaws, unless the number of directors is fixed in the certificate of incorporation. If the number is fixed in the certificate of incorporation, a change in the number of directors may be made only by amendment to the certificate of incorporation.

The Microvision-DE Bylaws provide that the number of directors shall be fixed from time to time by resolution of a majority of the then-authorized number of directors, but in no event shall be less than seven nor more than eleven. Thus, as is currently the case for Microvision-WA, a majority of the Board of Directors of Microvision-DE could increase the size of the Board up to the prescribed maximum number of eleven and appoint directors to fill the newly created board seats for the remainder of the term of office without further shareholder approval.

Delaware law permits the certificate of incorporation of a corporation, the initial bylaws or a bylaw adopted by the stockholders to provide that directors be divided into one, two or three classes. The term of office of one class of directors shall expire each year with the terms of office of no two classes expiring the same year. Microvision-DE has not established a classified Board of Directors.

Under Washington law, unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise, shareholders are entitled to use cumulative voting in the election of directors. Microvision-WA's Articles do not permit cumulative voting.

Delaware law permits cumulative voting if provided in the certificate of incorporation. The Microvision-DE Certificate does not provide for cumulative voting rights.

Under Washington law, a special meeting of shareholders may be called in a public company by the Board of Directors or any persons authorized to do so by the articles of incorporation or bylaws, and if the articles so provide, by a designated percentage of shareholders who are entitled to vote at such meeting. The Microvision-WA Articles provide that the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President, a majority of the Board of Directors or the holders of at least 25% of all votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at such meeting may call a special meeting of stockholders.

Under Delaware law, a special meeting of stockholders may be called by the Board of Directors or by any other person authorized to do so in the certificate of incorporation or the bylaws. The Microvision-DE Certificate provides that a special meeting may be called by a majority of the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer (or, if there is no Chief Executive Officer, the President) or as otherwise provided in the Bylaws. The Microvision-DE Bylaws provide that the holders of at least 25% of all votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at such meeting may also call a special meeting of stockholders.

The Bylaws of Microvision-WA provide, and Washington law permits, in the absence of a contrary provision in the articles of incorporation, that vacancies on the board, including a vacancy due to an increase in the number of directors, be filled by a vote of the remaining directors with the newly elected directors to serve the remainder of the term of the board seat being filled.

The Microvision-DE Bylaws provide, and Delaware law permits, that vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, removal or otherwise and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.

Under Washington law, the shareholders of a public company may act without a meeting by unanimous written consent.

Delaware law provides that stockholders may execute an action by written consent in lieu of a stockholder meeting where the stockholders consenting represent the votes necessary to approve such action at a meeting. The Microvision-DE Certificate provides that at any time during which a class of capital stock of the Company is registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any similar successor statute, stockholders of such class of the Company may not take any action by written consent.

Amendment to the Microvision-WA Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and the Microvision-DE Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.

Washington law authorizes a corporation's board of directors to make certain changes to its articles of incorporation without shareholder action. These changes include changes in corporate name, the par value of its stock, and the number of outstanding shares when effectuating a stock split or stock dividend in the corporation's own shares. Other amendments to the articles of incorporation of a Washington corporation that is public must be approved by a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast by any voting group entitled to vote on the amendment unless a higher number is specified in the Company's articles. The Microvision-WA Articles provide that they may be amended with the vote of two-thirds of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon.

Under Delaware law, all amendments to a corporation's certificate of incorporation require the approval of stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the corporation outstanding and entitled to vote on a matter unless a higher proportion is specified in the certificate of incorporation. Separate voting by class is required by law in certain circumstances where the amendment would adversely affect the rights of such holders. Microvision-DE's Certificate does not require a higher or lower proportion than a majority.

Since the Microvision-DE Certificate may be amended by the vote of a majority of outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon, approval of the Proposed Reincorporation will reduce the number of shares required to amend the Certificate of Incorporation, and will potentially make it easier for the Company to effect changes to its governing documents.

Both the Microvision-WA and Microvision-DE Bylaws may be amended by the vote of two-thirds of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon.

Washington law prohibits a "target corporation," with certain exceptions, from engaging in certain "significant business transactions" (such as a merger, certain asset sales or issuance of additional shares) with an "acquiring person" who acquires more than 10% of the voting securities of a target corporation for a period of five years after such acquisition, unless the transaction or the initial acquisition of shares is approved by a majority of the members of the target corporation's board of directors prior to the date of the share acquisition that resulted in the acquiring person owning more than 10% of the voting securities of the target corporation.

Delaware law has a similar provision that governs Microvision-DE. Except under certain circumstances, Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a "business combination" between the corporation and an "interested stockholder" within three years of the stockholder becoming an "interested stockholder." Generally, an "interested stockholder" is a person or group that directly or indirectly controls or has the right to acquire or control the voting or disposition of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and became the owner of 15% or more of such voting stock at any time within the previous three years. A "business combination" is defined broadly to include, among other things, (i) mergers and sales or other dispositions of 10% or more of the assets of a corporation with or to an interested stockholder; (ii) certain transactions resulting in the issuance or transfer to the interested stockholder of any stock

of the corporation or its subsidiaries; (iii) certain transactions which would result in increasing the proportionate share of the stock of a corporation or its subsidiaries owned by the interested stockholder; and (iv) receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit (except proportionately as a stockholder) of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits.

Under Section 203 of the DGCL, a business combination between a corporation and an interested stockholder is prohibited unless (i) prior to the date the person became an interested stockholder, the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction which results in the person becoming an interested stockholder; (ii) upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, that person owns at least 85% of the corporation's voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction is commenced (excluding shares owned by persons who are both directors and officers and shares owned by employee stock plans in which participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer); or (iii) the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized by the affirmative vote (at an annual or special meeting and not by written consent) of at least 66²/3% of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

These restrictions placed on interested stockholders by Section 203 of the DGCL do not apply under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) if the corporation's original certificate of incorporation contains a provision expressly electing not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL; or (ii) if the corporation, by action of its stockholders, adopts an amendment to its bylaws or certificate of incorporation expressly electing not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, provided that such an amendment is approved by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. Such an amendment, however, generally will not be effective until 12 months after its adoption and will not apply to any business combination with a person who became an interested stockholder at or prior to such adoption. Microvision-DE has not elected to take itself outside of the coverage of Section 203 of the DGCL.

The Company is not aware of any specific effort by any party to assume control of the Company. Both the WBCA and the DGCL include provisions affecting acquisitions and business combinations and the possibility that Section 203 of the DGCL may impede or delay the consummation of any merger or other change of control transaction is not among the principal reasons for the reincorporation.

Under Washington law, a merger, share exchange, consolidation, sale of substantially all of a corporation's assets other than in the regular course of business, or dissolution of a public corporation must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors when a quorum is present and by two-thirds of all votes of shareholders entitled to be cast by each voting group entitled to vote as a separate group, unless a higher or lower (but not less than a majority) proportion is specified in the articles of incorporation. Microvision-WA's Articles provide for a majority shareholder approval requirement.

Under Delaware law, a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of a corporation's assets other than in the regular course of business or dissolution of a corporation must be approved by a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. No vote of stockholders of a constituent corporation surviving a merger is required, however (unless the corporation provides otherwise in its certificate of incorporation), if (i) the merger agreement does not amend the certificate of incorporation of the surviving corporation; (ii) each share of stock of the surviving corporation outstanding before the merger is an identical outstanding or treasury share after the merger; and (iii) the number of shares to be issued by the surviving corporation in the merger does not exceed twenty (20%) of the shares outstanding immediately prior to the merger.

Under Washington law, a corporation's articles of incorporation may authorize one or more classes of shares that have special, conditional or limited voting rights, including the right to vote on certain matters as a group. All of Microvision-WA's outstanding shares currently are common stock and therefore always vote as a single class. Under Washington law, a corporation's articles of incorporation may not limit the rights of holders of a class to vote as a group with respect to certain amendments to the articles of incorporation and certain mergers that adversely and separately affect the rights of holders of that class.

Delaware law requires voting by separate classes only with respect to amendments to the certificate of incorporation that adversely affect the holders of those classes or that increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares or the par value of the shares of those classes.

Washington law provides a safe harbor for enforcing transactions between a corporation and one or more of its directors. A transaction in which a director has a personal interest may not be enjoined, set aside or give rise to damages if (i) it is approved by a majority of the qualified directors on the board of directors or an authorized committee, but in either case no fewer than two qualified directors; (ii) it is approved by the affirmative vote of all qualified shares; or (iii) at the time of commitment, the transaction was fair to the corporation. For purposes of this provision, "qualified director" is one who does not have (a) a conflicting interest respecting the transaction; or (b) a familial, financial, professional or employment relationship with a non-qualified director which relationship would reasonably be expected to exert an influence on the qualified director's judgment when voting on the transaction. "Qualified shares" are defined generally as shares other than those beneficially owned, or the voting of which is controlled, by a director who has a conflicting interest respecting the transaction.

Delaware law provides that contracts or transactions between a corporation and one or more of its officers or directors or an entity in which they have an interest is not void or voidable solely because of such interest or the participation of the director or officer in a meeting of the board of directors or a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction if (i) the material facts as to the relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the board of directors or the committee, and the board of directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors are less than a quorum; (ii) the material facts as to the relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the corporation as of the time it is authorized and approved or ratified by the board of directors, a committee thereof or the stockholders.

Under Washington law, the shareholders may remove one or more directors with or without cause but only at a special meeting called for the purpose of removing the director. If a director is elected by holders of one or more authorized classes or series of shares, only the holders of those classes or series of shares may participate in the vote to remove the director. Where cumulative voting is permitted, if less than the entire board is to be removed, no director may be removed if the number of votes sufficient to elect the director under cumulative voting is voted against the director's removal. The Bylaws of Microvision-WA provide that any director may be removed with cause by the holders of at least two-thirds of the shares entitled to elect such director.

Under Delaware law, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of

directors, except that, in the case of a corporation having cumulative voting, if less than the entire board is to be removed, no director may be removed without cause if the votes cast against such director's removal would be sufficient to elect such director if then cumulatively voted at an election of the entire board of directors. Additionally, in the case of a corporation that has a staggered board, no director may be removed without cause. The Microvision-DE Certificate requires the vote of two-thirds of outstanding shares entitled to vote to remove a director with or without cause.

Under Washington law, a shareholder possesses preemptive rights unless such rights are specifically denied in the articles of incorporation. The Microvision-WA Articles deny preemptive rights.

Under Delaware law, a stockholder does not possess preemptive rights unless such rights are specifically granted in the certificate of incorporation. The Microvision-DE Certificate does not provide for preemptive rights.

Under Washington law, a board of directors may authorize a corporation to make distributions to its shareholders subject to any restrictions imposed by the articles of incorporation, provided that no distribution may be made if after giving it effect (i) the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or (ii) the corporation's total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus (unless the articles of incorporation permit otherwise) the amount that would be needed, if the corporation were to be dissolved at the time of distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution. The Microvision-WA Articles do not provide additional requirements regarding the distribution of dividends.

Under Delaware law, a board of directors may authorize a corporation to make distributions to its stockholders, subject to any restrictions in its certificate of incorporation, either (i) out of surplus; or (ii) if there is no surplus, out of net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. Under Delaware law, no distribution out of net profits is permitted, however, if the corporation's capital is less than the amount of capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets, until such deficiency has been repaired. The Microvision-DE Certificate does not provide additional requirements regarding the distribution of dividends.

Under Washington law, no proxy is valid for more than eleven months unless a longer period is expressly provided in the proxy.

Generally, under Delaware law, no proxy is valid for more than three years after its date unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

Under Washington law, a shareholder is entitled to dissent and, upon perfection of his or her appraisal right, to obtain fair value of his or her shares in the event of certain corporate actions, including certain mergers, consolidations, share exchanges, sales of substantially all of the corporation's assets and amendments to the corporation's articles of incorporation that materially and adversely affect shareholder rights. The Proposed Reincorporation may give rise to dissenter's rights for Microvision-WA shareholders. See the section below entitled "DISSENTERS' RIGHTS" for further details.

Under Delaware law, appraisal rights are available only in connection with certain mergers or consolidations, unless otherwise provided in the corporation's certificate of incorporation. In the event of certain mergers or consolidations, unless the certificate of incorporation otherwise provides, the DGCL does not provide appraisal rights if (i) the shares of the corporation are listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a "National Market System" security or held of record by more than 2,000 shareholders (as long as in the merger the shareholders receive shares of the surviving corporation or any other corporation whose shares are listed on a national securities exchange, designated as a National Market System security, or held of record by more than 2,000 shareholders); or (ii) the corporation is the surviving corporation and no vote of its shareholders is required for the merger under the DGCL.

The following is a discussion of certain federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to holders of Microvision-WA common stock, who will receive Microvision-DE common stock in exchange for their Microvision-WA common stock as a result of the Proposed Reincorporation. The discussion does not address all of the federal income tax consequences of the Proposed Reincorporation that may be relevant to particular Microvision-WA shareholders, such as dealers in securities, or those Microvision-WA shareholders who acquired their shares upon the exercise of stock options, nor does it address the tax consequences to holders of options or warrants to acquire Microvision-WA common stock. Furthermore, no other federal tax considerations and no foreign, state, or local tax considerations are addressed herein. IN VIEW OF THE VARYING NATURE OF SUCH TAX CONSEQUENCES, EACH SHAREHOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PROPOSED REINCORPORATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN TAX LAWS. This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial authority and current administrative rulings and practices in effect on the date of this Proxy Statement.

The Proposed Reincorporation is expected to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, with the following federal income tax consequences:

(a) No gain or loss will be recognized by holders of Microvision-WA common stock upon receipt of Microvision-DE common stock pursuant to the Proposed Reincorporation;

(b) The aggregate tax basis of the Microvision-DE common stock received by each shareholder in the Proposed Reincorporation will equal the aggregate tax basis of the Microvision-WA common stock surrendered in exchange therefor;

(c) The holding period of the Microvision-DE common stock received by each shareholder of Microvision-WA will include the period during which such shareholder held the Microvision-WA common stock surrendered in exchange therefor, provided that such Microvision-WA common stock was held by the shareholder as a capital asset at the time of the Proposed Reincorporation; and

(d) No gain or loss will be recognized by Microvision-WA or Microvision-DE in connection with the Proposed Reincorporation.

The Company has not requested a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") or an opinion of counsel with respect to the federal income tax consequences of the Proposed Reincorporation under the Code. The Company believes that such a ruling and opinion are unnecessary and would add unneeded cost and delay because it knows of no reason why the IRS should challenge the described income tax consequences of the Proposed Reincorporation. However, a successful IRS challenge to the reorganization status of the Proposed Reincorporation would result in material adverse tax consequences to Microvision-WA, and in a shareholder recognizing gain or loss

with respect to each share of Microvision-WA common stock exchanged in the Proposed Reincorporation.

The Proposed Reincorporation may create dissenters' rights under Washington law. Shareholders are or may be entitled to assert dissenters' rights under Chapter 23B.13 of the Revised Code of Washington. A copy of such Chapter is included with these proxy materials. A shareholder who wishes to assert dissenters' rights must (a) deliver to the Company before the vote is taken written notice of the shareholder's intent to demand payment for the shareholder's shares if the Proposed Reincorporation is effected, and (b) not vote such shares in favor of the Proposed Reincorporation. The Company will not treat a vote against this proposal as a notice sufficient to meet such requirements. A vote for this proposal will serve as a waiver of dissenters' rights pursuant to Chapter 23B.13. Shareholders are encouraged to examine Chapter 23B.13 for more information on the nature and limitations of such dissenters' right and the manner in which a shareholder, if the shareholder so desires, must perfect such rights.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Proposed Reincorporation, we intend to file appropriate merger documents with the Washington Secretary of State and the Delaware Secretary of State as soon as practicable after an adoption and approval of the Plan of Merger and the Proposed Reincorporation by the Company's shareholders. The reincorporation will become effective at the time specified in the merger document filed in Delaware, after the last of such filings is completed. We presently contemplate that such filings will be made on or about June 24, 2003.

The Reincorporation Proposal may benefit the members of the Board of Directors and our officers. Since Delaware law may be more favorable to their interests as officers and directors in that it affords predictability with respect to the application of indemnification provisions and limitations on liability, the Board of Directors and officers of the Company may be viewed as having a personal interest in the approval of the Proposed Reincorporation to the potential detriment of the shareholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE ADOPTION AND APPROVAL OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND THE PROPOSED REINCORPORATION.

Pursuant to the Independent Director Stock Option Plan (the "Director Plan"), each Independent Director is granted a nonstatutory option to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock on the date on which he or she is elected or appointed to the Board of Directors. These options are fully vested and immediately exercisable upon the date of grant. Each Independent Director also receives, upon his or her initial appointment or election and upon each subsequent reelection to the Board of Directors, an option to purchase 15,000 shares that will vest in full on the earlier of (i) the day prior to the date of the Company's annual meeting of shareholders next following the date of grant, or (ii) one year from the date of grant, provided the Independent Director continues to serve as a director on the vesting date. If an Independent Director ceases to be a director for any reason other than death or disability before his or her term expires, then any outstanding unvested options issued under the Director Plan to such Independent Director will be forfeited. Options vested as of the date of termination are exercisable through the date of expiration. The exercise price is equal to the average closing price of the Company's common stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market during the ten trading days prior to the date of grant. The options expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant.

In addition, each Independent Director receives the following cash compensation for his or her service as a director:

At the July 25, 2002 meeting of the Board, the directors agreed to reduce the cash compensation payable to each Independent Director by ten percent until the first meeting following the date on which the closing price of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq was at least double the $2.99 closing price on July 25, 2002. The compensation reduction was effective until the Board meeting on December 19, 2002, following the December 6, 2002 closing price of $6.47.

Any Independent Director who is appointed to the Board would receive a pro rata portion of the annual fee based on the period remaining in the Board's current term of service.

The Company previously adopted two loan plans under which Richard F. Rutkowski, Stephen Willey, Richard Raisig, and William L. Sydnes may borrow funds from the Company. Under the Executive Option Exercise Note Plan (the "Option Exercise Plan"), each executive could borrow up to two times their base salary from the Company, against full recourse promissory notes, to exercise options to purchase the Company's common stock. Under the Executive Loan Plan (the "Loan Plan"), adopted in July 2000, each executive could borrow funds from the Company on a line of credit. The combined borrowings under both facilities could not exceed three times an executive's base salary. Mr. Rutkowski was granted a borrowing limit increase of an additional $500,000 during 2001 and an additional $200,000 during 2002. At the end of each year, the Company will forgive the interest that accrued under the loans if the executive remains employed by the Company. In 2002, the Company forgave $88,941, $30,942, $37,749, and $1,144 of interest for Messrs. Rutkowski, Willey, Raisig, and Sydnes, respectively. No additional loans have been made under either the Option Exercise Plan or the Loan Plan since July 2002, and the Company does not intend to make any additional loans under these plans. For additional details regarding loan balances and terms, see "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions" on page 31.

As a result of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in the event that compensation paid by the Company to a "covered employee" (the chief executive officer and the next four highest paid employees) in a year were to exceed an aggregate of $1,000,000, the Company's deduction for such compensation could be limited to $1,000,000.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is comprised of three Independent Directors. The Compensation Committee is responsible for evaluating compensation levels and

compensation programs for executives and for making appropriate compensation awards for executive management.

The executive compensation program of the Company is designed to attract, retain and motivate executive officers capable of leading the Company to meet its business objectives. These objectives include creating and preserving strong financial performance, positioning the Company in markets and industry segments offering long-term growth opportunities, enhancing long term shareholder value and ensuring the survival of the Company. The Compensation Committee's philosophy is for the Company to use compensation policies and programs that align the interests of executive management with those of the shareholders and to provide compensation programs that incentivize and reward both the short and long-term performance of the executive officers based on the success of the Company in meeting its business objectives. The accomplishment of these objectives is measured against conditions prevalent in the industry in which the Company operates.

The Compensation Committee has determined that the interests of the Company and its shareholders are best served by the Company entering into employment agreements with certain executive officers. These employment agreements are summarized under "Employment Agreements" above. The Compensation Committee believes that such employment arrangements benefit the Company and its shareholders by attracting and retaining executive officers with demonstrated leadership abilities and securing their services over an extended period of time.

The available forms of executive compensation include base salary, incentive bonus awards, and stock options. Performance of the Company is a key consideration. However, the Company's executive compensation policy recognizes that stock price is only one measure of performance, and given industry business conditions and the long-term strategic direction and goals of the Company, it may not necessarily be the best current measure of executive performance. Therefore, the Compensation Committee also considers the Company's achievement of business objectives when determining executive compensation.

Base Salary. Base salaries for executive officers are set at levels believed by the Compensation Committee to be sufficient to attract and retain qualified executive officers based on the stage of development of the Company and the market practices of other companies. A change in base salary of an executive officer is based on an evaluation of the performance of the executive, prevailing market practices and of the performance of the Company as a whole. In determining base salaries, the Compensation Committee not only considers the short term performance of the Company, but also the success of the executive officers in developing and executing the Company's strategic plans, developing management employees and exercising leadership in the development of the Company.

Incentive Bonus. The Compensation Committee believes that a portion of the total cash compensation for executive officers should be based on the Company's success in meeting its short term performance objectives and contributions by the executive officers that enable the Company to meet its long term objectives, and has structured the executive compensation program to reflect this philosophy. This approach creates a direct incentive for executive officers to achieve desired short term corporate goals that also further the long term objectives of the Company, and places a significant portion of each executive officer's annual compensation at risk.

Stock Options. The Compensation Committee believes that equity participation is a key component of the Company's executive compensation program. Stock options are awarded by the Compensation Committee to executive officers primarily based on their responsibilities and expected

contributions to the Company's growth and development and marketplace practices. These awards are designed to attract and retain executive officers and to motivate them to enhance shareholder value by aligning the financial interests of executive officers with those of shareholders.

In November 2002, the Company offered to exchange most of its outstanding options to purchase common stock for new options scheduled to be granted on or after June 11, 2003. The offer expired on December 9, 2002. Employees tendered options to purchase an aggregate of 2,521,714 shares of the Company's common stock, all of which were cancelled effective December 10, 2002. Under the terms of the exchange program the Company will be required to grant new options to purchase an aggregate of 1,760,321 shares of the Company's common stock. The exercise price of the new options will equal the greater of the closing price of our common stock on the grant date of the new options or $7.00 per share.

The Company undertook this offer because a considerable number of employees, including several executives, had stock options with exercise prices significantly greater than the recent trading prices of its common stock. These options were originally granted to attract, retain, and motivate capable employees. However, as a result of the extreme volatility of the stock market and a steep decline in the Company's stock price during the two years leading up to the exchange, many outstanding stock options had exercise prices significantly greater than the then-current value of its common stock. Consequently, a significant number of the Company's options were no longer effectively providing employee retention and motivation benefits that they were intended to provide. The Compensation Committee, with approval of the Board of Directors, determined that this exchange would provide an effective incentive for management to create shareholder value.

Based on the executive compensation policy and components described above, the Compensation Committee recommended the salary and incentive bonus received by Richard F. Rutkowski, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, for services rendered in fiscal 2002. Mr. Rutkowski received a base salary of $336,000 for 2002 and also earned a bonus of $139,000 for the year. The Company also forgave $88,941 in interest on $1,708,000 owed to the Company by Mr. Rutkowski under the Company's Executive Option Exercise Loan Plan and Executive Loan Plan. Mr. Rutkowski's compensation was based upon achieving technical successes, progress made in the staffing and organizational development of the Company, and advances in the market acceptance and commercialization of the Company's technology. Additional factors that the Compensation Committee considered were the increase in revenue of 48% to $15.9 million compared to $10.8 million for 2001, increase in gross profit of 92% to $8.9 million compared to $4.7 million for 2001, and decrease in consolidated net loss of 22% to $27.2 million compared to $34.8 million for 2001.

In August 2000, the Company entered into a five year consulting agreement with Jacqueline Brandwynne, a director of the Company. In consideration for entering into the agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock to Ms. Brandwynne. The warrants grant Ms. Brandwynne the right to purchase up to 100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $34.00 per share. The warrants vest over three years and the unvested portion of the warrants are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date during the vesting period. The Company estimated the original value of the warrants as of the issuance date at $2,738,000.

The Company has adopted two executive loan plans under which Richard F. Rutkowski, Stephen R. Willey, Richard A. Raisig and William L. Sydnes may borrow funds from the Company. No additional loans have been made under these executive loan plans since July 2002, and the Company does not intend to make any additional loans under these plans. The following table lists certain information describing each executive's loans as of December 31, 2002.

Under the Option Exercise Plan, each note is payable in full upon the earliest of (1) December 31, 2004; (2) the sale of all of the shares acquired with the note; (3) pro rata upon the partial sale of shares acquired with the note, or (4) within 90 days of the officer's termination of employment.

Under the Loan Plan, the advances must be repaid within one year of the executive's termination of employment or within 30 days of termination of the Loan Plan by the Board of Directors unless the executive elects to convert the outstanding balance to a one-year term note.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors.

The Audit Committee's primary role is to assist the Board of Directors in its general oversight of the Company's financial reporting, internal controls and audit functions. The Audit Committee provides advice, counsel and direction to management and the auditors on the basis of the information it receives and discussions with management and the auditors. The Audit Committee is also responsible for overseeing the engagement and independence of the Company's independent auditors.

Among other matters, the Audit Committee monitors the activities and performance of the Company's external auditors, including the audit scope, external audit fees, auditor independence matters and the extent to which the independent auditor may be retained to perform non-audit services. The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors have ultimate authority and responsibility to select, evaluate and, when appropriate, replace the Company's independent auditor. The Audit Committee also reviews the results of the external audit work with regard to the adequacy and appropriateness of the Company's financial, accounting and internal controls. Management and independent auditor presentations to and discussions with the Audit Committee also cover various topics and events that may have significant financial impact or are the subject of discussions between management and the independent auditor. In addition, the Audit Committee generally oversees the Company's internal financial controls and financial disclosure procedures.

The Audit Committee is composed of four non-employee directors, each of whom is an "independent director" under the rules of the Nasdaq National Market governing the qualifications of audit committees. The Audit Committee held six meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 with the Company's management and management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company's consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committee has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's independent auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (Communication with Audit Committees). The Audit Committee also reviewed with the independent auditors their judgments as to the quality and the acceptability of the Company's accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with audit committees under generally accepted accounting standards.

The Audit Committee received from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussion with Audit Committees) and discussed with the firm its independence. Based on the review and discussions noted above, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee referred to below and in the Charter of the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Company's audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Limitations on Role and Responsibilities of Audit Committee and Use and Application of Audit Committee Report

Management is responsible for the Company's financial reporting process, including its system of internal controls, and for the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, are responsible for auditing those financial statements. Our responsibility is to monitor and review these processes. It is not our duty or our responsibility to conduct auditing or accounting reviews or procedures. We are not employees of the Company and we are not, and we do not represent ourselves to be or to serve as, accountants or auditors by profession or experts in the fields of accounting or auditing. Therefore, we have relied, without independent verification, on management's representation that the financial statements have been prepared with integrity and

objectivity and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and on the representations of the independent auditors included in their report on the Company's financial statements. Our oversight does not provide us with an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or policies, or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, our considerations and discussions with management and the independent auditors do not assure that the Company's financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, that the audit of our Company's financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is in fact "independent."

Our independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, billed the following fees to the Company for audit and other services for the fiscal year 2002:

The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the audit of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 and the reviews of the financial statements included in the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the year ended December 31, 2002 were $178,785.

No fees were billed to the Company for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP relating to the design and implementation of the Company's financial information systems during the year ended December 31, 2002.

The aggregate fees billed for all other services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to the Company for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $98,492. These fees included fees billed for professional services rendered for the reviews of the Company's other SEC filings and for tax return preparation and related services in the amounts of $48,328 and $15,000, respectively.

The Company's Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of services under the heading "All Other Fees" is compatible with maintaining the accountants' independence and has determined that it is consistent with such independence.

The Board of Directors has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as the Company's independent accountants for fiscal year 2003. Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are

expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement and to respond to appropriate questions.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Microvision-WA and Merger Sub have caused this Merger Agreement to be signed by their respective duly authorized officers and delivered this day of , 2003.

The registered office of this corporation in the State of Delaware is located at 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, in the City of Wilmington, County of Newcastle, Delaware 19808. The name of its registered agent at such address is Corporation Service Company.

The purpose of this corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL").

The total number of shares of all classes of stock which this corporation shall have authority to issue is 125,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value ("Common Stock"), and (ii) 25,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value ("Preferred Stock").

The following is a statement of the designations and the powers, privileges and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof in respect of each class of capital stock of this corporation.

Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of such series to have such terms as stated or expressed herein and in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such series adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation as hereinafter provided. Any shares of Preferred Stock which may be redeemed, purchased or acquired by the Corporation may be reissued except as otherwise provided by law or this Certificate of Incorporation. Different series of Preferred Stock shall not be construed to constitute different classes of shares for the purposes of voting by classes unless expressly provided in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such series adopted by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided.

Authority is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to issue the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and in connection with the creation of any such series, by resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of the shares thereof, to determine and fix such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including without limitation thereof, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, as shall be stated and expressed in such resolutions, all to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the resolutions providing for issuance of any series of Preferred Stock may provide that such series shall be superior or rank equally or be junior to the Preferred Stock of any other series to the extent permitted by law and this Certificate of Incorporation. Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, no vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock shall be a prerequisite to the designation or issuance of any shares of any series of the Preferred Stock authorized by and complying with the conditions of this Certificate of Incorporation, the right to have such vote being expressly waived by all present and future holders of the capital stock of the Corporation.

In furtherance of and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors, acting by majority vote of the entire Board, is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal the By-Laws of this Corporation, subject to the right of the stockholders entitled to vote with respect thereto to alter and repeal the By-Laws adopted or amended by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the By-Laws shall not be altered, amended or repealed by the stockholders of the Corporation except by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors.

Except to the extent that the DGCL prohibits the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty, no director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability. No amendment to or repeal of this provision shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of the Corporation or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

1. Indemnification. The Corporation shall, to the maximum extent permitted under the DGCL and except as set forth below, indemnify and upon request advance expenses to each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including any employee benefit plan (all such persons being referred to hereafter as an "Indemnitee"), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee seeking indemnification in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, claim or counterclaim, or part thereof, initiated by the Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

2. Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. Any indemnification under paragraph 1 of this Article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Article and that the amount requested has been actually and reasonably incurred. Such determination shall be made:

3. Advance of Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provisions, this Certificate of Incorporation, the By-Laws of the Corporation, or any agreement, vote of stockholder or disinterested directors, or arrangement to the contrary, the Corporation shall advance payment of expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of any matter only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of the Indemnitee to make such repayment.

4. Subsequent Amendment. No amendment, termination or repeal of this Article or of the relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws shall affect or diminish in any way the rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification under the provisions hereof with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment, termination or repeal.

5. Other Rights. This corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by its Board of Directors, grant indemnification rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other

persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article.

6. Merger or Consolidation. If this Corporation is merged into or consolidated with another corporation and the Corporation is not the surviving corporation, the surviving corporation shall assume the obligations of the Corporation under this Article with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the date of such merger or consolidation.

7. Savings Clause. If this Article or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to any expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

8. Scope of Article. Indemnification and advancement of expenses, as authorized by the preceding provisions of this Article, shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be an authorized representative and shall inure to the benefits of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

9. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by the person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article.

The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

This Article is inserted for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation.

1. Number of Directors. The number of directors of the Corporation shall not be less than three. The exact number of directors within the limitations specified in the preceding sentence shall be fixed from time to time by, or in the manner provided in, the By-Laws of the Corporation.

2. Election of Directors. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot except as and to the extent provided in the By-Laws of the Corporation.

3. Terms of Office. Except as provided in Section 5 of this Article, each director shall serve for a term ending on the date of the next annual meeting following the annual meeting at which such

director was elected; provided, however, that the term of each director shall be subject to the election and qualification of his successor and to his earlier death, resignation or removal.

4. Removal. The directors of the Corporation may be removed with or without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the shares of the capital stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote generally in the election of directors cast at a meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose.

5. Vacancies. Any vacancy in the Board of Directors, however occurring, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the Board, shall be filled only by vote of a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. A director elected to fill a vacancy shall be elected for the unexpired term of his predecessor in office, subject to the election and qualification of his successor and to his earlier death, resignation or removal.

6. Stockholder Nominations and Introduction of Business, Etc. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for election of directors and other business to be brought by stockholders before either an annual or special meeting of stockholders shall be given in the manner provided by the By-Laws of this Corporation.

The books of this Corporation may, subject to any statutory requirements, be kept outside the State of Delaware as may be designated by the Board of Directors or by the By-Laws of this Corporation.

At any time during which a class of capital stock of this Corporation is registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any similar successor statute, stockholders of such class of the Corporation may not take any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

Special meetings of stockholders may be called at any time only by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer (or if there is no Chief Executive Officer, the President), a majority of the Board of Directors or as otherwise provided in the By-Laws of this Corporation. Any business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of meeting. Notwithstanding any other provisions of law, this Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws, each as amended, and notwithstanding the fact that a lesser percentage may be specified by law, this Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws of the Corporation, the affirmative vote of a majority of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors shall be required to amend or repeal or to adopt any provisions inconsistent with the purpose or intent of this Article XIII.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned sole incorporator hereby certifies that the facts stated above are true as of this day of , 2003.

1.1. Place of Meetings. All meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place, within or without the State of Delaware, or, if so determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, at no place (but rather by means of remote communication), as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors or the President or, if not so designated, at the principal executive office of the corporation.

1.2. Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting shall be held at such date and time as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice of the meeting. If no annual meeting is held in accordance with the foregoing provisions, a special meeting may be held in lieu of the annual meeting, and any action taken at that special meeting shall have the same effect as if it had been taken at the annual meeting, and in such case all references in these By-Laws to the annual meeting of stockholders shall be deemed to refer to such special meeting.

1.3. Special Meeting. Special meetings of stockholders may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer (or, if there is no Chief Executive Officer, the President) or by vote of a majority of the Board of Directors. Further, a special meeting of the stockholders shall be held if the holders of not less than twenty-five (25) percent of all the votes entitled to be cast on the issue proposed to be considered as such special meeting have dated, signed and delivered to the Secretary one or more written demands for such meeting. Any business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of meeting.

1.4. Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise provided by law, written notice of each meeting of stockholders, whether annual or special, shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. The notices of all meetings shall state the place, if any, the date, the means of remote communications, if any by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and the hour of the meeting. The notice of a special meeting shall state, in addition, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be given either personally or by mail, electronic mail, telecopy, telegram or other electronic or wireless means. Notices not personally delivered shall be sent charges prepaid and shall be addressed to the stockholder at the address of that stockholder appearing on the books of the corporation. Notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or at the time of transmission when sent by electronic mail, telecopy, telegram or other electronic or wireless means. An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice of any stockholders' meeting, executed by the secretary, assistant secretary or any transfer agent of the corporation giving the notice, shall be prima facie evidence of the giving of such notice or report.

1.5. Voting List. The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting, for any purpose germane to the meeting on either a reasonably accessible electronic network (for which such information required to access the electronic network shall be provided with the notice of the meeting) or, during ordinary business hours, at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held. If the meeting is to be held at a place, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time of the meeting, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably

accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.

1.6. Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, the holders of a majority of the shares of the capital stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person, by means of remote communication, if authorized, or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

1.7. Adjournments. Any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned to any other time and to any other place at which a meeting of stockholders may be held under these By-Laws by the stockholders present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote, although less than a quorum, or, if no stockholder is present, by any officer entitled to preside at or to act as secretary of such meeting. It shall not be necessary to notify any stockholder of any adjournment of less than thirty (30) days if the time and place of the adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which adjournment is taken, unless after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

1.8. Voting. Each stockholder shall have one vote for each share of capital stock entitled to vote and held of record by such stockholder, unless otherwise provided by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws. Each stockholder of record entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may vote in person or by electronic means, as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.

Any stockholder entitled to vote on any matter may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or, except when the matter is the election of directors, may vote them against the proposal; but if the stockholder fails to specify the number of shares which the stockholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the stockholder's approving vote is with respect to all shares which the stockholder is entitled to vote.

1.9. Proxy Representation. Every stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy in all matters in which a stockholder is entitled to participate, whether by waiving notice of any meeting, objecting to or voting or participating at a meeting, or expressing consent or dissent without a meeting. The delivery of a proxy on behalf of a stockholder consistent with telephonic or electronically transmitted instructions obtained pursuant to procedures of the Corporation reasonably designed to verify that such instructions have been authorized by such stockholder shall constitute execution and delivery of the proxy by or on behalf of the stockholder. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date unless such proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and, if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally. The authorization of a proxy may but need not be limited to specified action, provided, however, that if a proxy limits its authorization to a meeting or meetings of stockholders, unless otherwise specifically provided such proxy shall entitle the holder thereof to vote at any adjourned session but shall not be valid after the final adjournment thereof. A proxy purporting to be authorized by or on behalf of a stockholder, if accepted by the Corporation in its discretion, shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise, and the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger.

1.10. Action at Meeting. When a quorum is present at any meeting, action on a matter shall be approved by a voting group if the votes cast within a voting group favoring the action exceed the votes cast within the group opposing the action, unless a greater number of affirmative votes is required by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by the By-Laws. No ballot shall be required for any election

unless requested by a stockholder present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote in the election.

1.11. Nomination of Directors. Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors. The nomination for election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation at a meeting of stockholders may be made only (a) pursuant to the notice of the meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (b) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (c) by any stockholder of the Corporation who was a stockholder of record of the Corporation at the time the notice provided for below in this Section 1.11 is delivered to the Secretary, who is entitled to vote in the election of directors at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.11. Such nominations, other than those made by or on behalf of the Board of Directors, shall be made by timely notice in writing delivered or mailed to the Secretary in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.12. Such notice shall set forth (a) as to each proposed nominee (i) the name, age, business address and, if known, residence address of each such nominee, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of each such nominee, (iii) the number of shares of stock of the corporation which are beneficially owned by each such nominee, (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nominations are to be made by the stockholder, and (v) any other information concerning the nominee that must be disclosed as to nominees in proxy solicitations pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), including such person's written consent to be named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected; and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice, the information required to be provided pursuant to Section 1.12. The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation.

The chair of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.11, and if he or she should so determine, the chair shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.11, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present a nomination, such nomination shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.11, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 1.11. Nothing in this Section 1.11 shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Act.

1.12. Notice of Business at Annual Meetings. At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (c) otherwise properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder who was a stockholder of record of the Corporation at the time the stockholder's notice provided for below in this Section 1.12 is delivered to the Secretary, who is entitled to vote and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.12. For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, if such business relates to the election of directors of the Corporation, the procedures in Section 1.11 must be

complied with. If such business relates to the election of directors or to any other matter, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed by first class United States mail, postage prepaid, and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than sixty (60) calendar days nor more than ninety (90) calendar days prior to the annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that if less than sixty (60) days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the annual meeting is given or made to the stockholders, then for the notice by the stockholder to be timely it must be so received not later than the close of business on the 10^th business day following the date on which the notice of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made, whichever occurs first. A stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (b) the name and address, as they appear on the corporation's books, of the stockholder proposing such business, (c) the class and number of shares of the corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder, and (d) any material interest of the stockholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything in these By-Laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at any annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.12 and except that any stockholder proposal which complies with Rule 14a-8 of the proxy rules, or any successor provision, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is to be included in the corporation's proxy statement for an annual meeting of stockholders shall be deemed to comply with the requirements of this Section 1.12.

The chair of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.12, and if he or she should so determine, the chair shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.12, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the annual meeting of stockholders of the corporation to present business, such proposed business shall not be transacted,

Notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.12, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 1.12. Nothing in this Section 1.12 shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Act.

1.13. Conduct of Meeting. The Chairman of the Board or, in his or her absence, the President or any Vice President, in the order named, shall call meetings of the stockholders to order and act as chair of such meeting; provided, however, that, in the absence of the Chairman of the Board, the Board of Directors may appoint any stockholder to act as chair of any meeting. The Secretary of the Corporation or, in his or her absence, any Assistant Secretary, shall act as secretary at all meetings of the stockholders; provided, however, that in the absence of the Secretary at any meeting of the stockholders, the person acting as chair at any meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of such meeting.

The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Subject to such rules and regulations of the Board of Directors, if any, the person presiding over the meeting shall have the right and authority to convene and adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of the person presiding over the meeting, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation,

establishing an agenda or order of business for the meeting, rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, limitations on participation in such meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation and their duly authorized and constituted proxies and such other persons as the person presiding over the meeting shall permit, restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof, limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants and regulation of the opening and closing of the polls for balloting and matters which are to be voted on by ballot. The person presiding over the meeting, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting, shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if the person presiding over the meeting should so determine and declare, any such matter or business shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or the person presiding over the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with rules of parliamentary procedure.

2.1. General Powers. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of a Board of Directors, who may exercise all of the powers of the Corporation except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws. In the event of a vacancy in the Board of Directors, the remaining directors, except as otherwise provided by law, may exercise the powers of the full Board of Directors until the vacancy is filled.

2.2. Number; Election and Qualification. The number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be determined from time to time by resolution of the Board of Directors, but in no event shall be less than seven nor more than eleven.

Such record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other action to which such record date relates.

If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day before the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day before the day on which the meeting is held. The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating to such purpose.

A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

The corporation shall, either at its principal executive office or at such place or places as designated by the Board of Directors, keep a record of its stockholders listing their names and addresses and the number and class of shares held by each stockholder, a copy of these By-Laws as amended to date, accounting books and other records.

Any stockholder of record, in person or by attorney or other agent, shall, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, have the right during the usual hours for business to inspect for any proper purpose the corporation's stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records and to make copies or extracts therefrom. A proper purpose shall mean a purpose reasonably related to such person's interest as a stockholder. In every instance where an attorney or other agent is the person who seeks the right to inspection, the demand under oath shall be accompanied by a power of attorney or such other writing that authorizes the attorney or other agent to so act on behalf of the stockholder. The demand under oath shall be directed to the Corporation at its registered office in Delaware or at its principal place of business.

5.2. Inspection by Director. Any director shall have the right to examine the Corporation's stock ledger, a list of its stockholders and its other books and records for a purpose reasonably related to his or her position as a director. The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with the exclusive jurisdiction to determine whether a director is entitled to the inspection sought. The Court may summarily order the corporation to permit the director to inspect any and all books and records, the stock ledger, and the stock list and to make copies or extracts therefrom. The Court may, in its discretion, prescribe any limitations or conditions with reference to the inspection, or award such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper.

5.3. Representation of Shares of Other Corporations. The President or any other officer of this Corporation authorized by the Board of Directors is authorized to vote, represent, and exercise on behalf of this Corporation all rights incident to any and all shares of any other corporation or corporations standing in the name of this Corporation.

Where such an appearance is made for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the

transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting has not been lawfully called or convened, the appearance shall not be deemed equivalent to notice.

must be served with a copy of the petition. Nonresidents may be served by registered or certified mail or by publication as provided by law.

(5) The jurisdiction of the court in which the proceeding is commenced under subsection (2) of this section is plenary and exclusive.

(2) The court may also assess the fees and expenses of counsel and experts for the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable:

(3) If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against the corporation, the court may award to these counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded the dissenters who were benefited.
