Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On October 8, 2008, American Glass Products (AGP), a licensee of
Research Frontiers Inc., announced in a press release with DiMora Motorcar
a strategic technology partnership with DiMora Motorcar. As a Technology
Partner, AGP plans to provide its Vario Plus-Sky brand of SPD-SmartGlass(tm)
for DiMora Motorcar's Natalia SLS 2 sport luxury sedan. AGP's electronically
switchable smart glass allows passengers to instantly and dynamically control
the amount of sunlight, glare and heat passing through automotive windows,
sunroofs and other glazings.
Building on its world leadership position in automotive security and technology
glass, AGP plans to provide Vario Plus-Sky SPD-SmartGlass for the large glass
roof of the Natalia SLS 2. In addition to its exceptional dynamic shading
capabilities, AGP Vario Plus-Sky offers significant safety and security
benefits and it reduces the amount of heat passing through the smart glass
into the interior space. AGP Vario Plus-Sky also blocks more than 99% of
harmful ultraviolet (UV) light which can be harmful to passengers and
degrade vehicle interiors and instrumentation.
