EXPLANATORY NOTE
          On April 12, 1999, Refac Optical Group, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”), pertaining to the registration of the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), issuable under the 1990 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, as amended, the 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, and the Stock Option Agreements between the Company and each of Neil R.

Lamond, John Moldauer, Paul J. Mulhauser, Arlene Scanlan, David Schiff and Douglas M. Spranger. The Company is filing this post-effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to remove from registration the Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement.
          On April 26, 2007, ROG Acquisition, Inc. (“ROG”), a Delaware corporation, was merged with and into the Company in a “short-form” merger under Section 253 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. As a result of the merger, the Company is no longer a ‘public’ company. The merger became effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 26, 2007 (the “Effective Time”). The Company shall be filing a certification and notice of termination on Form 15 with respect to the Common Stock on April 30, 2007.
          As a result of the merger, the Company has terminated all offerings of Common Stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. Accordingly, the Company hereby removes from registration all shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement which remained unissued at the Effective Time.
