BOTHELL, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–June 23, 2003–Lumera
Corporation, a majority owned subsidiary of Microvision, Inc.
(Nasdaq:MVIS), announced today it has been awarded a new development
contract with a major supplier to U.S. government agencies.

In addition, the company announced that it has finalized a
statement of work for a potential contract with a U.S. government
agency. Final details are now being negotiated and completion of the
contract is expected soon. Details of the contract and statement of
work are confidential.

“This new work relates to advanced optical modulator development
that is synergistic with our ongoing development work on advanced
optical modulators for commercial applications,” said Tom Mino,
Lumera’s CEO. “These new efforts are the direct result of our ability
to provide a tunable range of electro-optic chromophores and
polymers.”

Lumera is developing and commercializing a new class of
electro-optic materials and devices that utilize proprietary polymer
compounds and processing technologies. These new devices and materials
are expected to dramatically improve performance and reduce costs of
electro-optic components for telecommunications, phased array antenna
systems, optical computing, optical signal processing and optical
interconnects. The properties of these materials are expected to
enable new applications in other technologies such as organic light
emitting diode displays, low k dielectrics and coating materials.
