Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 16, 2014, MicroVision, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Meyers Associates, L.P. (doing business as Brinson Patrick, a division of Meyers Associates, L.P.) (“Brinson Patrick”) pursuant to which the Company may sell, at its option, up to an aggregate of $4.5 million in shares of its common stock through Brinson Patrick, as sales agent. Sales of the common stock made pursuant to the Sales Agreement, if any, will be made under the Company’s previously filed and currently effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-192864). Prior to any sales under the Sales Agreement, the Company will deliver a placement notice to Brinson Patrick that will set the parameters for such sale of shares, including the number of shares to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of shares that may be sold in any one trading day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, Brinson Patrick may sell the shares, if any, only by methods deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including without limitation sales made directly through the NASDAQ Global Market, by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions, in negotiated transactions, to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices and/or any other method permitted by law. Brinson Patrick will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell the shares in accordance with the terms of the Sales Agreement and any applicable placement notice. The Company cannot provide any assurances that it will issue any shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement.

The Company will pay Brinson Patrick a commission equal to up to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock under the Sales Agreement, if any. Pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company also provided Brinson Patrick with customary indemnification rights. The offering of common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (a) the sale of all of the common stock subject to the Sales Agreement and (b) the termination of the Sales Agreement by the Company or Brinson Patrick. Either party may terminate the agreement in its sole discretion at any time upon written notice to the other party.

In order to furnish certain exhibits for incorporation by reference into the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-192864), the Company is filing the Sales Agreement and an opinion the Company received from its counsel regarding the validity of the shares to be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement. The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
