ITEM 8.01.  OTHER EVENTS.

On September 25, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing the Company and Kodak have made significant progress in their joint effort to commercialize and manufacture UniPixel’s next-generation touch-screen sensors, including product rebranding. InTouch Sensors™ is UniPixel’s newly developed and named pro-cap, multi-touch sensor film, previously named after the UniBoss™ manufacturing process. Kodak and UniPixel have further cobranded this new name as “InTouch Sensors™ Powered by Kodak,” which reflects the synergistic contributions the companies bring to this new touch-screen sensor solution.

Recent developments include:

·  
Strong overall market interest—The global market introduction of InTouch Sensors™ is driven by the multi-million dollar preferred price and capacity licenses executed with two Fortune 100 companies. The product continues to gain interest throughout the entire touch module market segment with numerous active customer engagements and requests for price and delivery terms for smart phones, tablets, ultrabooks, notebooks and all-in-one touch sensor solutions.

·  
Commercial production trials underway—Two new plating lines that were recently delivered to UniPixel’s Texas facility have been calibrated to support the UniBoss™ production process, bringing the total number of plating lines that are now being used for commercial production trials to three.

·  
Ramped up equipment capacity at Kodak’s Rochester, New York Facility— The recent installation of the first printing line at the Eastman Business Park in the Rochester facility further advances the schedule, with four plating lines and two printing lines to be operational by the fourth quarter of 2013. Kodak and UniPixel are planning to build out equipment capacity throughout 2014 to support anticipated increasing demand, and are planning to expand the Rochester site by adding additional plating lines while increasing throughput via continuous process improvement.

The press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, incorporated by reference herein, and the description of the press release is qualified in its entirety by reference to such Exhibit.
