     7.1   During the term of this Agreement, LICENSEE will pay to LICENSOR as

(as set forth on Exhibit D) of net sales of each category of the Licensed
Products, less 2% of the itemized discounts, rebates and shipping costs as
stated on LICENSEE's invoices regarding such sales of the Licensed Products (2%
representing an average of such amounts), and as further exemplified on Exhibit
D attached hereto.  The term "net sales" with respect to each category of the
Licensed Products shall be defined as the total amount invoiced by LICENSEE for
sales of the Licensed Products in such category less the total amount of returns
of the Licensed Products in such category.  In calculating royalties, no
deduction shall be made for advertising allowances, uncollectible accounts or
any other form of discount other than volume rebates which does not appear on
the customer's invoice.  Volume rebates allowed a customer will be credited on a
separate invoice to the customer, and an annual adjustment of 2% of such rebates
shall be made to the Royalties regarding all volume rebates allowed during the
respective Contract Year.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in
the event that at any time during a Contract Year during the initial Contract
Period or the first renewal period (as provided in Section 7.6), the Royalties
paid and accrued with respect to such Contract Year equal $1,340,000, thereafter
for the remainder of such Contract Year, the amount of the Royalties that
LICENSEE shall be required to pay to LICENSOR shall be reduced by 50%.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that at any time
during a Contract Year after the first renewal period, the Royalties paid and
accrued with respect to such Contract Year equal twice the Minimum Royalties (as
hereinafter defined) for such Contract Year, thereafter for the remainder of
such Contract Year, the amount of the Royalties that LICENSEE shall be required
to pay to LICENSOR shall be reduced by 50%.

     7.2   Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1, LICENSEE hereby agrees
to pay to LICENSOR during the Contract Period annual minimum Royalties ("Minimum
Royalties") as follows:




                                       5
<PAGE>   6
                            Year  Minimum Royalties
                            ----  -----------------

                            1992  $100,000
                            1993  $200,000
                            1994  $350,000


If the sum of the total Royalties paid with respect to a Contract Year do not
equal or exceed the Minimum Royalties for such Contract Year, the difference
between the Minimum Royalties and the Royalties for such Contract Year shall be
due and payable on January 20 following such Contract Year.

     7.3   If upon the expiration of the initial Contract Period, LICENSEE
elects to renew this Agreement as hereinafter provided for an additional three
(3) year term, the Minimum Royalties for the first renewal period shall be as
follows:


                            Year  Minimum Royalties
                            ----  -----------------

                            1995     $500,000
                            1996     $580,000
                            1997     $670,000


     If LICENSEE elects to further renew this Agreement, the Minimum Royalties
for each year during such renewal period shall be calculated by the parties
using the EIA statistics for growth in total factory sales for the categories of
consumer electronic products included in the Licensed Products. Specifically,
for any Contract year after 1997, the Minimum Royalty for such Contract Year
shall be calculated as $670,000 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the EIA total factory sales of such products for such Contract Year and
the denominator of which shall be the EIA total factory sales for the prior
Contract Year.  Until such time as the EIA statistics are published and the
parties are able to calculate the Minimum Royalties for a Contract Year, the
Minimum Royalties shall be the same as the Minimum Royalties for the prior
Contract Year.  Within thirty (30) days after the publication of the necessary
EIA statistics, the parties shall calculate the Minimum Royalties for such
Contract Year.

     7.4   Payment of Royalties shall be made quarterly by LICENSEE to LICENSOR
on or before the 20th day following the end of each calendar quarter of each
Contract Year during the term of this Agreement (i.e. January 20, April 20, July
20 and October 20) and within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier
termination of the License, in respect of all Licensed Products shipped during
such quarter (or other period).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, upon the execution of this Agreement, LICENSEE shall pay to LICENSOR
an advance of $50,000 against earned Royalties for the first Contract Year,
which advance shall be applied toward the Royalties to be paid by LICENSEE with
respect to the final calendar quarter of such Contract Year.  Hagemeyer
Electronics (N.A.), Inc. has affixed its signature to this Agreement for the
sole purpose of agreeing to, and it does hereby agree to, guarantee without
limit the financial payment provisions of LICENSEE under this Agreement for the
benefit of LICENSOR.

     7.5   Payment of all Royalties shall be in United States funds.  The late
payment of any Royalties shall bear interest at the rate of one and one-half
percent (1-1/2%) per month, or at the highest rate permitted by applicable
state law, whichever is lower.

     7.6   LICENSEE shall have the right and option of renewing this Agreement
after the initial Contract Period for additional terms of three (3) years each
if (i) LICENSEE is not then in default under the terms of this Agreement and
(ii) the total Royalties paid by LICENSEE during such Contract Period were no
less than 125% of the sum of the Minimum Royalties for such Contract Period
(the "Renewal Amount"), or LICENSEE pays to LICENSOR no later than January 20

Royalties paid during such Contract Period and the Renewal Amount for such
Contract Period.  The parties agree that the Renewal Amount for the initial
Contract Period shall be $812,500, and the Renewal Amount for the second
Contract Period shall be $2,187,500.

     11.3  LICENSEE shall, within thirty (30) calendar days after the execution
of this Agreement, obtain from an insurance company reasonably acceptable to
LICENSOR, and maintain during the term of this Agreement and for a period of
twenty-four (24) months following the expiration or termination of this
Agreement, public and products liability insurance with a limit of liability of
not less than Five Million ($5,000,000) U.S. dollars per occurrence in order to
protect LICENSOR against any liabilities with which it may be charged because of
damage or injuries suffered by any servants, agents, contractors, employees or
customers of LICENSEE or by the general public, resulting from the use or sale
of the Licensed Products manufactured, distributed, advertised or sold by
LICENSEE or by LICENSEE's contractor.  LICENSEE agrees to cause LICENSOR's name
to be entered in such policy as an additional named insured and to deliver to
LICENSOR a certificate thereof.  Said insurance shall provide that it cannot be
canceled without the insurer first giving LICENSOR twenty (20) calendar days,
advance written notice thereof.  LICENSEE shall furnish or cause to be furnished
to LICENSOR evidence of the maintenance and renewal of the insurance required
herein, including, but not limited to, copies of policies, certificates of
insurance,, with applicable riders and endorsements, and proof of premium
payments.

12.  DEFAULT; TERMINATION

     12.1  In the event of a default by either party in the performance of any
of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement, the non-defaulting party shall
give written notice of such default to the defaulting party.  Within sixty (60)
days of its receipt of such notice, the defaulting party shall take reasonable
efforts toward correcting the default, and shall cure the default within six
(6) months of its receipt of such notice.  If the defaulting party does not
take such corrective actions or cure the default within the respective time
period, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement upon the expiration of the respective period.  The right to remedy a
default shall not apply to a violation of the prior authorization and reporting
requirements of Sections 4 and 5 which shall be deemed a non-curable default.

     12.2  Either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon
ten (10) days prior notice upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

           (a)   If the other party shall become insolvent or shall make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors or become the subject of receivership,
bankruptcy or other insolvency or debtor relief proceedings, or any similar
proceedings, or in proceedings, voluntary or forced, whereby it is limited in
the free and unrestrained exercise of its own judgment as to the carrying out of
the terms of this Agreement;

           (b)   If the other party shall cease to do business;



                                       10
<PAGE>   11
           (c)   Except as permitted under Section 16, if the other party shall
attempt to assign any of its rights under this Agreement; or

           (d)   In the event that this Agreement is held invalid or
unenforceable by the determination of any government agency or any court of
competent jurisdiction.

     A party's exercise of its right, pursuant to this Section 12.2, to
terminate this Agreement shall be without prejudice to any other legal or
equitable remedy such party may hold against the other party by reason of the
other party's breach of any term or condition of this Agreement.

     12.3  In the event that LICENSEE shall terminate this Agreement as provided
in subparagraph (a) of Section 12.2, LICENSEE shall have the right to purchase
the Licensed Trademarks from LICENSOR for use with respect to the categories of
consumer electronic products included on Exhibit B and any other consumer
electronic products manufactured and sold by LICENSEE pursuant to this Agreement
immediately prior to such termination, and LICENSOR agrees to take all actions
reasonably necessary to transfer such registrations of the Licensed Trademarks
to LICENSEE.  LICENSOR and LICENSEE shall each obtain a valuation of the
Licensed Trademarks from an independent appraiser.  If the difference between
the valuations does not exceed 10% of the higher valuation, the purchase price
for the Licensed Trademarks shall be the average of the two valuations.  If the
difference between the valuations exceeds 10% of the higher valuation, the two
independent appraisers shall mutually select a third independent appraiser and
the valuation of the third appraiser shall be the purchase price of the Licensed
Trademarks.

     12.4  No assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, liquidator,
trustee in bankruptcy, sheriff or any other officer of the court or official
charged with taking over custody of LICENSEE's assets or business, shall have
any right to continue performance of this Agreement, and this Agreement may not
be assigned by operation of law.

     12.5  Failure to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12 shall
not effect or constitute a waiver of any remedies the non-defaulting party would
have been entitled to demand in the absence of the section, whether by way of
damages, termination or otherwise.  Termination of this Agreement shall be
without prejudice to the rights and liabilities of either party to the other in
respect of any matter arising under this Agreement.

13.  RIGHTS AFTER TERMINATION

     13.1  Except as provided in Section 13.2 hereof, from and after the
termination of this Agreement, whether because of non-renewal, default or
otherwise, all of the rights of LICENSEE to the use of the Licensed Trademarks
shall, except as hereinafter expressly provided, cease absolutely, and LICENSEE
shall not thereafter advertise, promote, distribute or sell any item whatsoever
in connection with the Licensed Trademarks.  It is further agreed that following
expiration of the Contract Period, LICENSEE shall not advertise, promote,
distribute or sell any item whatsoever in connection with the use of any name,
figure, design, logo, trademark or trade name similar to or suggestive of the
Licensed Trademarks.

     13.2  Any Licensed Products for which as of the date of termination
LICENSEE has non-cancelable open orders or which are in transit to the United
States may be sold by LICENSEE on a 


                                       11
<PAGE>   12

non-exclusive basis during the twelve (12) month period following the date of
termination.  Any Licensed Products which are warehoused in the United States on
the date of termination and any Licensed Products which were returned to
LICENSEE by a customer may be sold by LICENSEE on a non-exclusive basis during
the nine (9) month period following the date of termination.  LICENSEE shall
continue to pay to LICENSOR with respect to such sales Royalties at the rate and
in the manner specified in this Agreement. Within sixty (60) days of the date of
termination, LICENSEE shall provide to LICENSOR a complete listing of the
inventory in transit and the warehoused inventory.  Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, LICENSEE shall have no right to manufacture any
additional Licensed Products after the date of termination.

     13.3  LICENSOR agrees that during the inventory disposal periods as
provided in Section 13.2 hereof, LICENSOR will not place any advertisements or
announcements in any trade or mass publication concerning the expiration of this
Agreement or the identity of a successor LICENSEE, nor will LICENSOR participate
in any discussions or negotiations with any other party regarding the use of the
Licensed Trademarks in the Territory on any type of consumer electronic product
similar to the Licensed Products.  LICENSOR acknowledges that the actions herein
described would severely limit LICENSEE's ability to dispose of the remaining
inventory.

14.  NON-COMPETITION

     14.1  LICENSOR acknowledges that as a result of the performance of this
Agreement, LICENSOR will acquire confidential and proprietary information of
LICENSEE regarding its product development, business plans and marketing plans
for the Licensed Products.  LICENSOR hereby agrees that during the initial
Contract Period and all renewal periods of this Agreement and for a period of
one (1) year after the termination of this Agreement, LICENSOR will not
participate, directly or indirectly, in any business engaged in the design,
development, manufacture, distribution or sale of any consumer electronic
products included in the categories listed on Exhibit B (including all consumer
electronic products substituted for or added to the Products by the parties)
other than as provided in Section 14.2 hereof; provided, however, LICENSOR shall
not be prohibited from continuing and expanding any business which it is
presently conducting or from manufacturing, distributing and selling itself
consumer electronic products not included in the categories listed on Exhibit B.

     14.2  LICENSEE hereby agrees to sell the Products to LICENSOR provided that
the Products are labeled with and marketed under the Licensed Trademarks and
LICENSOR resells the Products at retail by direct mail or through retail outlets
owned by LICENSOR. LICENSEE agrees to sell the Products to LICENSOR at prices
which are not in excess of LICENSEE's most recent wholesale prices for such
Products to an unrelated third party upon terms of net 90 days.

15.  NOTICE

     All notices required or provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing
and shall be given by registered mail, prepaid and properly addressed to the
last known address of the party to be served herewith, or by telecopy facsimile
and confirmed by regular mail, and shall be deemed to have been given on the
date upon which said notice was received.  Notices sent to LICENSOR shall be

16.  ASSIGNMENT

     This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of LICENSOR, and the
successors and assigns of LICENSOR.  The rights granted LICENSEE hereunder shall
be exclusive to it and shall not, without the prior written consent of LICENSOR,
be transferred or assigned to any other, provided that LICENSEE may assign this

other entity, except for a subsidiary or parent of Hagemeyer N.V., LICENSOR

in writing on or before sixty (60) days after LICENSOR has received notice of
such merger or consolidation.

17.  JOINT VENTURE

     This Agreement does not constitute and shall not be construed as
constituting a partnership or joint venture between LICENSOR and LICENSEE.
Neither party shall have any right to obligate or bind the other party in any
manner whatsoever, and nothing herein contained shall give, or is intended to
give, any rights of any kind to any third person.

18.  MISCELLANEOUS

law of the State of Wisconsin (without regard to principles of conflicts of
law).  If and to the extent that any provisions of this Agreement are
prohibited or unenforceable under any applicable law, such provisions shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceable without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or
enforceability of any other provision hereof.

     18.4  The failure of either party at any time or times to demand strict
performance by the other of any of the terms, covenants or conditions set forth
herein shall not be construed as a continuing waiver or relinquishment thereof
and each may at any time demand strict and complete performance by the other of
said terms, covenants and conditions.

THIS CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION WHICH MAY BE ENFORCED BY THE
PARTIES.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this agreement to be
executed as of the date set forth above.  The effective date is: November 15,

                         AMENDMENT TO LICENSE AGREEMENT


     THIS AMENDMENT is made as of the 15th day of November, 1991, by and
between KOSS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation with its principal place of
business at 4129 North Port Washington Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53212 (the
"LICENSOR"), and TRABELCO N.V., a Netherlands Antilles company with its
principal place of business at Van Engelenweg 21A, Willemstad, Curacao,
Netherlands Antilles (the "LICENSEE").

     WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the parties previously entered into a certain License Agreement,
dated November 15, 1991; and

     WHEREAS, the parties now desire to amend the License Agreement in certain
respects;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

     1.   Section 13.1(a) of the License Agreement shall be inserted after
Section 13.1 and shall read as follows:

     13.1(a) As of the date which is six (6) months after the effective date of
     termination, LICENSOR shall have the option to purchase all of LICENSEE's
     unsold and uncommitted inventory of Licensed Products, including such
     inventory as may be in transit or warehoused in the United States.  The
     purchase price shall be at LICENSEE's cost.  LICENSOR shall give notice of
     its intent to exercise said option no later than the date which is five (5)
     months after the effective date of termination.  Upon receipt of such
     notice, LICENSEE shall provide a complete listing of the inventory of all
     Licensed Products, with additional detail for each product model as to the
     quantities of such inventory previously sold or committed and the names of
     the buyers or parties committed therefor.  In the event LICENSOR does not
     exercise this option, LICENSEE has the right to dispose of the Licensed
     Products as provided in Section 13.2.

     2.   Section 16 of the License Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

          16.   ASSIGNMENT

     This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of LICENSOR, and the
     successors and assigns of LICENSOR.  The rights granted LICENSEE hereunder
     shall be exclusive to it and shall not, without the prior written consent
     of LICENSOR, be transferred or assigned to any other entity, provided that
     LICENSEE may assign this Agreement to any other corporation controlling,
     controlled by or under common control with LICENSEE.  In the event of the
     merger or consolidation of LICENSEE with any other entity, including any
     subsidiary or parent of Hagemeyer N.V., LICENSEE shall provide written

Attn:  Michael Koss, President

       Re:   License Agreement between Koss Corporation and Trabelco
             N.V., dated November 15, 1991, as Amended

Dear Michael:

       The initial Contract Period of the License Agreement ("License
Agreement"), dated November 15, 199l, between Koss Corporation, as Licensor, and
Trabelco N.V., as Licensee, as amended, expires December 31, 1994. Pursuant to
Section 7.6 of the License Agreement, Licensee hereby elects to renew the
License Agreement for an additional three (3) year Contract Period, ending
December 31, 1997.  Since the total Royalties paid by Licensee during the
initial Contract Period exceed the Renewal Amount for the initial Contract
Period of $812,500, no additional payment by Licensee to Licensor is required
for the renewal of the License Agreement.


                                           Sincerely,

                                           TRABELCO N.V.

                              SECOND AMENDMENT TO
                               LICENSE AGREEMENT

     THIS SECOND AMENDMENT is made and entered into as of the 29th day of
September, 1995 by and between KOSS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation
("LICENSOR"), and TRABELCO N.V., a Netherlands Antilles company ("LICENSEE").

     WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the parties previously entered into a certain License Agreement,
dated November 15, 1991, as amended by a certain Amendment to License Agreement
dated the same date; and

     WHEREAS, the parties now desire to further amend the said License
Agreement in certain respects;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

     1.    The said License Agreement shall be amended by deleting Section 7.1
in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following which shall be read
as Section 7.1:

          7.1  During the term of this Agreement, LICENSEE will pay to LICENSOR
     as royalties ("Royalties") an amount equal to the sum of the respective
     percentage (as set forth on Exhibit B) of net sales of each category of the
     Licensed Products, less 2% of the itemized discounts, rebates and shipping
     costs as stated on LICENSEE's invoices regarding such sales of the Licensed
     Products (2% representing an average of such amounts), and as further
     exemplified on Exhibit D attached hereto.  The term "net sales" with
     respect to each category of the Licensed Products shall be defined as the
     total amount invoiced by LICENSEE for sales of the Licensed Products in
     such category less the total amount of returns of the Licensed Products in
     such category, and shall include sales of the Licensed Products to LICENSOR
     as provided in Section 14.2 hereof.  In calculating royalties, no deduction
     shall be made for advertising allowances, uncollectible accounts or any
     other form of discount other than volume rebates which does not appear on
     the customer's invoice. Volume rebates allowed a customer will be credited
     on a separate invoice to the customer, and an annual adjustment of 2% of
     such rebates shall be made to the Royalties regarding all volume rebates
     allowed during the respective Contract Year.  Notwithstanding anything
     herein to the contrary, in the event that at any time during a Contract
     Year during the initial Contract Period or the first renewal period (as
     provided in Section 7.6), the Royalties paid and accrued with respect to
     such Contract Year equal $1,340,000, thereafter for the remainder of such
     Contract Year, the amount of the Royalties that LICENSEE shall be required
     to pay to LICENSOR shall be reduced by 50%.  Notwithstanding anything
     herein to the contrary, in the event that at any time during a Contract
     Year after the first renewal period, the Royalties paid and accrued with
     respect to such Contract Year equal twice the Minimum Royalties (as
     hereinafter defined) for such Contract Year, thereafter for the remainder
     of such Contract Year, the amount of the Royalties that LICENSEE shall be
     required to pay to LICENSOR shall be reduced by 50%.

     2.   The said License Agreement shall be amended by deleting Section 14.1
in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following which shall be read
as Section 14.1:

          14.1  LICENSOR acknowledges that as a result of the performance of
     this Agreement, LICENSOR will acquire confidential and proprietary
     information of LICENSEE 

<PAGE>   24

     regarding its product development, business plans and marketing plans for
     the Licensed Products.  LICENSOR hereby agrees that during the initial
     Contract Period and all renewal periods of this Agreement and for a period
     of one (1) year after the termination of this Agreement, LICENSOR will not
     participate, directly or indirectly, in the Territory, in any business
     engaged in the design, development, manufacture, distribution or sale of
     any consumer electronic products included in the categories listed on
     Exhibit B (including all consumer electronic products substituted for or
     added to the Products by the parties) other than as provided in Section
     14.2 hereof; provided, however, that LICENSOR shall not be prohibited from
     (i) continuing and expanding anywhere in the world (including, without
     limitation, in the Territory) any business which it is presently
     conducting, or (ii) manufacturing, distributing and/or selling consumer
     electronic products not included in the categories listed on Exhibit B
     anywhere in the world (including, without limitation, in the Territory).

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Second Amendment
as of the date first above written.
