REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–May 4, 2006–Microvision, Inc.
(NASDAQ:MVIS), a leader in light scanning technologies, today
announced that the holder of the Company’s preferred stock converted
its $5 million preferred stock holding issued in September 2004 to
common equity. As consideration for the conversion of the preferred
stock, the company issued a total of 1,353,066 shares of its common
stock. Further details will be available in a Current Report on Form

our goal of simplifying the capital structure of the Company to better
align the equity interests of the Company’s shareholders.”

Microvision has agreed to register the shares of common stock
issued as part of this transaction for resale under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended. The securities have not been registered under the
