As previously disclosed, under the Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, as amended to date, for Mr. Little (the "Plan"), on November 17, 2011, Mr. Little elected (and the Compensation Committee approved such election) to receive aggregate accumulated deferred compensation of $500,000 for 2010 amd 2011 in shares of common stock, which, based on the closing sale price of the issuer's common stock on the election date ($0.78), was approximately 641,025 shares to be awarded under the 2007 Stock Equity Plan (the "2007 Plan"). Because of the limitations on awards under the 2007 Plan, only 200,000 of such shares were delivered to the Trust in 2011. On May 17, 2012, the shareholders of Spire Corporation approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan to increase the maximum number of shares that may be granted to any one participant during any fiscal year to 500,000 shares.

On June 21, 2012, Mr. Little elected (and the Compensation Committee approved such election) to receive aggregate accumulated deferred compensation of $62,500 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 in shares of common stock, which, based on the closing sale price of the issuer's common stock on the election date ($0.69), was equal to approximately 90,579 shares to be awarded under the 2007 Plan. On December 19, 2012, because of the limitations on awards under the 2007 Plan, only 58,975 of such shares were delivered to the Trust. In addition, on August 16, 2012, Mr. Little elected (and the Compensation Committee approved such election) to receive aggregate accumulated deferred compensation of $62,500 for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 in shares of common stock, which based on the closing sale price of the issuer's common stock on the election date ($0.55), is equal to approximately 113,363 shares.
