GunnAllen Starr Securities, Inc. Financial, Inc. This prospectus is dated , 1999 [PICTURES OF ID-CHECK PRODUCTS TO BE INCLUDED] ================================================================================ PROSPECTUS SUMMARY To fully understand our business and this offering, please read the rest of this prospectus, as well as this summary. Our Business Intelli-Check was formed in 1994 to develop, manufacture and market an advanced document verification system to enable a retailer to: o determine the customer's age and the validity of the I.D. to detect and prevent the use of fraudulent identification for the purchase of alcohol, tobacco and other age-restricted products; o reduce the risk to the retailer of substantial monetary fines, criminal penalties and license revocation for the sale of age-restricted products to minors; and o reduce check cashing, credit card and other types of fraud. With the cooperation of various governmental agencies, we developed our initial software product called "ID-Check". The ID-Check terminal, which uses our patented software: o is easy to use, requiring just one quick swipe or scan of a driver license or other ID card by the retailer; o reads and analyzes encoded information and displays "yes", "no", "expired" or "tampered" thereby reducing the guesswork of determining age and the validity of the ID; and o creates a record of transactions as proof that the retailer has used proper due diligence. Our Marketing Strategy We intend to initially market our ID-Check terminal, subsequent upgrades and related software applications to retailers of age-restricted products, including: o convenience stores; o bars and night clubs; o restaurants; and o retail beer and liquor establishments. In addition to using our sales personnel, we also intend to distribute through other channels like independent sales organizations and wholesale alcohol and tobacco distributors. Our Location Our principal executive offices are located at 775 Park Avenue, Huntington, New York 11743. Our telephone number is (516) 421-2011. We were originally incorporated in New York in October 1994. In September 1999, we changed our state of incorporation to Delaware. The names "ID-Check", "P-Link", "C-Link", "M-Link", "MAVE", "AIR-Check", and "CREDIT-Check" are trademarks of Intelli-Check. Each trademark, trade name or service mark of any other company appearing in this prospectus belongs to its holder. ================================================================================ 3 ================================================================================

Each prospective investor should carefully consider the following risk factors before making an investment decision. Because of our lack of operating history, your basis for evaluating us is limited. We have a limited operating history by which you can evaluate our prospects and future performance. Since we began business in 1994, we have been engaged primarily in research and development and have had no significant revenues from sales of our products. You should consider our prospects in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in the operation of a new business that relies on developing technology. You should also consider our prospects in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by businesses in the move from development to commercialization of new products based on innovative technology. Because we have experienced losses and expect our expenses to increase, we may not be able to achieve profitability. We have incurred operating losses since our inception. We had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2.75 million at September 30, 1999. We cannot assure you that our revenues will become significant or that we will ever achieve profitable operations. We may not have sufficient capital for our business and we will be required to seek additional financing to fund our operations. Our capital requirements have been and will continue to be significant. The net proceeds of the sale of the shares in this offering, together with our available cash, are expected to continue to fund our projected operations at least for the next twelve months. If we were to fail to attain positive cash flow thereafter, we will be required to seek additional equity or debt financing to fund the costs of our operations. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available to us when needed, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing when needed, we will be required to curtail our marketing and production plans and possibly cease operations. Because our business model is unproven, achieving market acceptance will require significant efforts and expenditures to create awareness, demand and interest by potential customers regarding perceived benefits. We cannot assure you that any of our products will gain market acceptance or that our product will function to the satisfaction of our customers. We also do not know whether we will be able to produce our product at a cost that will be acceptable to potential purchasers. As a result, we may be required to reduce our prices, which would have an adverse effect on our profit margins. We depend on our intellectual property, which may not be fully protected. Our proprietary technology distinguishes our products from those of our competitors. We rely on a combination of our patent and trademarks, trade secret laws and nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements with our employees and others with whom we do business, to protect our proprietary technology. We cannot assure you that these measures will provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets or proprietary technology in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure. In addition, others may obtain access to or independently develop technologies or know-how similar to ours. A third party is seeking to invalidate our patent. The IdentiScan Company, LLC offers a product that electronically reads and calculates age from a driver license. In August 1999, IdentiScan filed a complaint against us which seeks to have the IdentiScan product declared non-infringing on our patent and seeks to have our patent declared invalid. The complaint does not seek monetary damages. We believe that our patent, to which we hold clear title, is valid and fully enforceable. We intend to vigorously defend it. We also believe IdentiScan's claim of non-infringement is without merit. In October 1999, we made a motion to dismiss IdentiScan's claim. This motion is currently pending. However, if our patent were to be declared invalid or if our patent were to be otherwise limited, we believe it would have an adverse effect on our business and future success because other companies, including IdentiScan, might be able 6 to use some or all of the technology covered by our patent to develop and market products which will directly compete with our products. Furthermore, if we were required to devote a significant portion of the proceeds of this offering to defend our patent, we would have less money available for other purposes. We currently rely on one hardware supplier to provide us with the terminals to run our ID-Check software. Delays and inconsistencies in the quality of the terminals could result in lost sales. If the supplier of our hardware terminals does not meet our delivery requirements, we may have to seek an alternate supplier. While we believe they would be available, we have not yet identified any alternate suppliers. Because of the technological nature of our product, we may not be able to quickly replace our current hardware supplier if that were necessary. Any delay in securing a new source on satisfactory terms or within the time frame to meet our sales goals could have a material adverse effect on our business. Additionally, delays in production or inconsistencies in quality could result in our failure to fulfill sales orders and the cancellation of potential orders, which could damage our reputation. If governmental agencies were to stop sharing data with us, our business would be adversely affected. Currently, a number of states and Canadian provinces which conform to the guidelines established by standardization bodies cooperate with us by providing sample driver licenses and identification cards so that we may program the ID-Check terminal to read and analyze the encoded information found on the driver licenses and identification cards. We cannot assure you that these jurisdictions will continue to cooperate with us. If they stop cooperating with us, our ability to market our products may be severely limited. Our success depends on our two most senior officers. Our success will depend on our two most senior officers, Frank Mandelbaum, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and Kevin Messina, our President and Chief Technical Officer. The loss of the services of either of them could materially and adversely affect us. Future sales of our common stock by our existing stockholders could have adverse effects. Upon consummation of this offering we will have 6,271,152 shares of common stock outstanding, of which the 1,000,000 shares offered hereby will be freely tradeable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Of the remaining 5,271,152, 1,164,500 shares of our common stock have been held for over two years and are currently eligible for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act. Additionally, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, 394,605 shares of our common stock will be eligible for sale under Rule 144. Also, upon the expiration of the one-year lock-up agreement with the underwriters, 3,358,447 shares of our common stock will become eligible for sale, in some cases subject to volume restrictions under Rule 144. In addition, there are 3,873,100 shares subject to currently outstanding options or warrants or reserved for future issuance. The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of common stock in the market after this offering, or the perception that these sales may occur. These sales also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. Our stock price could be extremely volatile. The market price of our common stock may be highly volatile as a result of factors specific to us or applicable to our market and industry in general. These factors, include: o variations in our annual or quarterly financial results or those of our competitors; o changes by financial research analysts in their recommendations or estimates of our earnings; o conditions in the economy in general or in the information technology service sector in particular; o announcements of technological innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors; o unfavorable publicity or changes in industry guidelines, applicable laws and regulations, or their judicial or administrative interpretations, affecting us or the information technology service sectors; o levels of customer satisfaction, including our ability to retain existing customers and attract new customers; and o price competition or the introduction of new competitors. 7 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This prospectus contains forward-looking statements based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about Intelli-Check and our industry. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including all the risks and uncertainties discussed in Risk Factors and elsewhere in this prospectus. We do not undertake to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future. The safe harbors for forward-looking statements provided by the federal securities laws do not apply to initial public offerings. 8 USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds to Intelli-Check from the sale of the 1,000,000 shares of common stock offered by this prospectus are estimated to be $5,723,500, or $6,647,500 if the underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses. We will not receive any portion of the proceeds from the sale of common stock by selling stockholders. We expect to use the net proceeds during the twelve months following the consummation of this offering approximately as follows:
Approximate Approximate Dollar Percentage of Application of Net Proceeds Amount Net Proceeds - ------------------------ ----------- ------------- Purchase of terminals .............................................. $2,875,000 50.2% Repayment of indebtedness .......................................... 1,225,000 21.4% Product development ................................................ 400,000 7.0% Sales and marketing ................................................ 300,000 5.2% Working capital and general corporate purposes ..................... 923,500 16.2% ----------- ------- Total ............................................................ $5,723,500 100.0% =========== =======
Purchase of terminals. We intend to use a portion of the proceeds for the purchase of ID-Check terminals, which we expect to be delivered by the end of the second quarter of 2000. Repayment of indebtedness. We intend to repay $1,200,000 principal amount of 27 secured promissory notes bearing interest at the annual rate of 10%, plus approximately $25,000 of accrued interest, which will be due on the promissory notes. The promissory notes, the terms of which are identical except for the principal amounts, mature on the earlier of July 31, 2000 or the closing of this initial public offering. The proceeds from the sale of these promissory notes were used for the purchase of ID-Check terminals and for working capital and general corporate purposes. Product development. We intend to continue to enhance the performance and increase the capability of our ID-Check terminal. We also intend to develop additional applications for our technology. Costs of product development include the hiring of additional employees, construction of prototypes and testing. Sales and marketing. We expect to hire sales and marketing personnel to establish a marketing program. We also will be preparing additional marketing materials and further developing our website. Working capital and general corporate purposes. We may use a portion of the proceeds allocated to working capital and general corporate purposes to pay trade payables incurred from time to time and the salaries of our employees, if cash flow from operations is insufficient for these purposes. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full, we will realize additional net proceeds of $924,000, all of which will be allocated to working capital and general corporate purposes. The foregoing represents our best estimate of the allocation of the net proceeds of this offering based upon the current status of our business. This estimate is based on certain assumptions, including the development of our business in the way we anticipate. If any of our assumptions prove incorrect, we may find it necessary to reallocate a portion of the proceeds within the above-described categories or use portions of the proceeds for other purposes. Our estimates may prove to be inaccurate, new programs or activities may be undertaken which will require considerable additional expenditures or unforeseen expenses may occur. Based upon our current plans and assumptions relating to our business plan, we believe the net proceeds of this offering, combined with other anticipated available cash resources, will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for at least twelve months following the closing of this offering. If our plans change or our assumptions prove to be inaccurate, we may need to seek additional financing sooner than currently anticipated or curtail our operations. We cannot assure you that the proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to fund our proposed growth or that additional financing will be available if needed. Proceeds not immediately required for the purposes described above will be invested principally in United States government securities, short-term certificates of deposit, money market funds or other short-term interest bearing investments. 9 DILUTION The difference between the initial public offering price per share and the net tangible book value per share of common stock after this offering constitutes the dilution to investors in this offering. Net tangible book value is determined by dividing total tangible assets less total liabilities by the number of outstanding shares of common stock. At September 30, 1999, we had a net tangible book value of $42,699, or $0.01 per share. After giving effect to the sale of 1,000,000 shares of common stock offered by Intelli-Check by this prospectus, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and expenses of this offering, and the application of the estimated net proceeds, our adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 1999 would have been $5,766,199, or $0.92 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.91 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $6.08 (86.9%) per share to new investors. The following table illustrates the dilution to new investors on a per share basis: Initial public offering price per share .......................................... $7.00 Net tangible book value before offering .......................................... 0.01 Increase attributable to new investors and pro forma adjustments ................. 0.91 ---- Adjusted net tangible book value after the offering .............................. 0.92 ------ Dilution per share to new investors .............................................. $6.08 ======
The following table sets forth as of the date of this prospectus, with respect to our existing stockholders and new investors, a comparison of the number of shares of common stock we issued, the percentage ownership of those shares, the total consideration paid, the percentage of total consideration paid and the average price per share.
Shares Acquired Total Consideration Average ----------------------------------------------- Price per Number Percent Amount Percent Share ---------- -------- ----------- -------- -------- Existing stockholders ............................ 5,271,152 84% $2,871,159 29% $ .54 New investors .................................... 1,000,000 16% $7,000,000 71% $7.00 ---------- ------ ----------- ------ -------- Total ............................................ 6,271,152 100% $9,871,159 100% ========== ====== =========== ======
The above table assumes no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option. If the underwriters exercise the over-allotment option in full, we estimate that the new investors will have paid $8,050,000 for the 1,150,000 shares of common stock being offered, representing approximately 73.7% of the total consideration for 17.9% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. In addition, the above table does not give effect to the shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants. DIVIDENDS We have never declared or paid any dividends to the holders of our common stock and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all earnings for use in connection with the expansion of our business and for general corporate purposes. The future declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be within the sole discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our profitability, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. In addition, the payment of cash dividends on our common stock in the future could be limited by the terms of financing agreements that we may enter into or by the terms of any preferred stock that may be authorized and issued. 10 CAPITALIZATION The following table presents our capitalization as of September 30, 1999 on an actual basis, adjusted to give effect to pro forma information and adjusted to give effect to our sale of 1,000,000 shares of common stock offered by us under this prospectus and the anticipated application of the estimated net proceeds. The share numbers presented in the following table do not include: o 150,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance in this offering to cover the over-allotment option; o 1,402,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding stock option plan and non-plan options; o 1,681,100 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding warrants; and o 690,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of options available for future grant under our stock option plans.

The as adjusted short-term debt reflects the expected repayment of $1,200,000 of secured promissory notes with the proceeds of this offering. 11 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview Intelli-Check was formed in 1994 to address a growing need for reliable age and document verification systems to detect fraudulent driver licenses and other widely accepted forms of government-issued identification documents. We have emerged from a development stage company to an operating company and we recently began commercial production of our product. Our sales to date have been nominal since we have previously produced only a limited pre-production run of our product for testing and market acceptance. Since inception, we have incurred significant losses and negative cash flow, and as of September 30, 1999 we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2.75 million. We have not achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur operating losses. We will continue to fund operating and capital expenditures from available capital until such time, if any, as we achieve profitability. In view of the rapidly evolving nature of our business and our limited operating history, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. Results of Operations Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to the nine months ended September 30, 1998. Sales decreased 99.6% from $86,354 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $327 recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Sales for the period ended September 30, 1998 consisted of sales of our initial pre-production run of ID-Check terminals while the September 30, 1999 period only included sales of supplies. In the third quarter of 1998, we withdrew from the marketplace so that we could devote our resources to expand the capability of our product by converting our software to operate on programmable terminals. Operating expenses, which consist of selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses, increased 46.8% from $826,799 in the period ended September 30,1998 to $1,214,146 in the September 30, 1999 period. Selling expenses, which consist primarily of salaries and related costs for marketing, increased 45.3% from $118,315 in the period ended September 30, 1998 to $171,908 in the September 30, 1999 period primarily due to the hiring of a director of national sales. General and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of salaries and related costs for general corporate functions, including executive, finance, accounting, facilities and fees for professional services, increased 56% from $585,887 in the September 30, 1998 period to $914,239 in the period ended September 30, 1999, primarily as a result of an increase in salaries because of additional hiring and the fact that our senior executives did not defer salary after June 1, 1999, an increase in depreciation and increased professional fees. Research and development expenses, which consist primarily of salaries and related costs for the development of our products, remained relatively stable increasing 4.4% from $122,597 in the September 30, 1998 period to $127,999 in the September 30, 1999 period. We believe that we require additional significant investments in development and operating infrastructure, including the hiring of additional sales and marketing personnel. Therefore, we expect that expenses will continue to increase for the foreseeable future as we increase expenditures for advertising, brand promotion, public relations and other marketing activities. We expect that we will incur additional general and administrative expenses as we continue to hire personnel and incur incremental costs related to the growth of the business. Research and development expenses will also increase as we complete and introduce additional products based upon our patented ID-Check technology. Interest expense increased from $23,248 in the period ended September 30, 1998 to $35,584 for the period ended September 30, 1999 as a result of interest expense on increased deferred compensation and accrued interest on our promissory notes issued in August and September 1999. We have incurred net losses to date, therefore we have paid nominal income taxes. As a result of the factors noted above, our net loss increased from $785,767 in the period ended September 30, 1998 to $1,249,458 in the September 30, 1999 period. 12 Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1998 to the year ended December 31, 1997. Sales increased 416% from $16,736 for the year ended December 31, 1997 to $86,354 recorded for the year ended December 31, 1998. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997 were lower because we did not receive the first pre-production ID-Check terminals until October 1997. Thus, sales did not commence until the last fiscal quarter for the reasons discussed above. Operating expenses decreased 4.6% from $1,579,632 in the year ended December 31, 1997 to $1,506,615 in the year ended December 31, 1998. This decrease was attributable to a decline in research and development expenses partially offset by higher general and administrative costs and selling expenses. General and administrative expenses increased 6.9% from $992,375 in the year ended December 31, 1997 to $1,060,537 in the year ended December 31,1998, primarily as a result of increased professional fees. Selling expenses increased 12.1% from $124,453 in the year ended December 31, 1997 to $139,470 in the year ended December 31, 1998 as a result of marketing expenses for the introduction of ID-Check. Research and development expenses decreased 33.7% from $462,804 in the year ended December 31, 1997 to $306,608 in the year ended December 31, 1998 primarily due to the completion in 1997 of our software and hardware development for the pre-production units. Interest expense increased from $37,057 in the year ended December 31, 1997 to $61,479 for the year ended December 31, 1998 as a result of interest expense on increased deferred compensation and borrowings during the year. As of December 31, 1998, we had a net operating loss carryforward of $950,568 for financial reporting purposes. At December 31, 1997, we had no operating loss carry forward due to our status as a subchapter S corporation under the Internal Revenue Code for the prior periods. Under subchapter S, all losses were allocated to our stockholders. We have recorded a valuation reserve equal to the amount of the carryforward due to the uncertain realization of these tax benefits. Our net loss decreased from a net loss of $1,604,296 in the year ended December 31, 1997 to $1,503,814 in the year ended December 31, 1998, primarily as a result of the increase in sales and the decrease in research and development expenses. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our capital requirements have exceeded our cash flow from operations as we have been developing our business. At December 31, 1998 we had a working capital deficit of $924,666. Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through private equity and debt financing, issuance of stock for payables and borrowings from officers. During the year ended December 31, 1997, we received aggregate net proceeds of $1,917,849 from the private sales of stock and warrants and issuance of a convertible note payable. During the year ended December 31, 1998, we received aggregate net proceeds from the private sale of stock and warrants of $766,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, we received aggregate net proceeds of $719,200 from the private sale of stock and warrants. In addition, in August and September 1999, we received aggregate net proceeds of $1,050,000 from the issuance of promissory notes and warrants. We used the net proceeds primarily for the purchase of terminals, working capital and general corporate purposes. Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 of $1,253,088 was primarily attributable to the net loss of $1,249,458, deposits on hardware purchases of $423,905 and increase in other assets of $148,320 offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $503,370. Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 of $791,538 was due primarily to net operating losses of $777,867. Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1998 of $1,048,025 resulted primarily from the net loss of $1,503,814 and the increase in inventory of $122,292, offset by a loss on disposal of assets of $225,783 and increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $262,172. Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1997 of $1,164,986 resulted primarily from net losses of $1,604,296 offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $423,651. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses for both periods is attributable to our diminished working capital. Cash used in investing activities was $85,409 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and $26,006 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. Cash used in investing activities was $26,975 for the 13 year ended December 31, 1998 and $246,264 for the year ended December 31, 1997. Net cash used in investing activities for these periods consisted primarily of capital expenditures for computer equipment and furniture and fixtures. Cash provided by financing activities was $1,941,136 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and $461,343 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. Cash provided by financing activities was $752,830 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and $1,866,540 for the year ended December 31, 1997. Cash provided by financing activities primarily related to the private sales of promissory notes, common stock, preferred stock and warrants discussed above. Because of our limited cash resources, our senior officers deferred the receipt of their compensation, in whole or in part, prior to June 1, 1999. This obligation was eliminated through the issuance of stock, warrants and stock options in the second quarter of 1999. No deferred compensation is currently outstanding. We currently anticipate that our available cash resources combined with the net proceeds from this offering will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least twelve months after the closing of this offering. These requirements are expected to include the purchase of 5,000 terminals to run our patented software, product development, sales and marketing, working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. We will also repay debt incurred in August and September 1999. We may need to raise additional funds, however, to respond to business contingencies which may include the need to: fund more rapid expansion; fund additional marketing expenditures; develop new markets for our ID-Check technology, enhance our operating infrastructure; respond to competitive pressures; or acquire complementary businesses or necessary technologies. Net Operating Loss Carryforwards As of December 31, 1998, we had a net operating loss carryforward of $950,568, which expires beginning in the year 2013. The issuance of equity securities in the future, together with our recent financings and this offering, could result in an ownership change and, thus could limit our use of our prior net operating losses. If we achieve profitable operations, any significant limitation on the utilization of our net operating losses would have the effect of increasing our tax liability and reducing net income and available cash reserves. We are unable to determine the availability of these net operating losses since this availability is dependent upon profitable operations, which we have not achieved in prior periods. Recent Accounting Standards In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP 98-1"), which provides guidance for determining whether computer software is internal-use software and on accounting for the proceeds of computer software originally developed or obtained for internal use and then subsequently sold to the public. It also provides guidance on capitalization of the costs incurred for computer software developed or obtained for internal use. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1998. We do not expect the adoption of SOP 98-1 to have a material effect on our financial statements. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 was originally to be effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In July 1999, however, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," which amends SFAS No. 133 to be effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. We currently do not engage or plan to engage in derivative instruments or hedging activities. Year 2000 Issues Many currently installed computer systems and software products are coded to accept or recognize only two digit entries in the date code field. These systems and software products may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. As a result, computer systems and/or software used by many companies 14 and governmental agencies may need to be upgraded to comply with such Year 2000 requirements or risk system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of normal business activities. State of Readiness. We have made a preliminary assessment of the Year 2000 readiness of our information technology systems, including our ID-Check software, and our non-information technology systems. Our plan consists of: o quality assurance testing of our internally developed proprietary software; o contacting third-party vendors and licensors of material hardware, software and services; o contacting vendors of material non-information technology systems; o assessment of repair or replacement requirements; o repair or replacement; and o implementation. We have substantially completed a review and assessment of all proprietary and third party hardware and software and believe that our hardware and software are substantially Year 2000 compliant. We have made inquiries of a number of our vendors requesting assurances of their compliance. These third parties, including our supplier of terminals for the ID-Check software, have generally advised us that their review of their operating systems indicate that their operating systems are Year 2000 compliant or will be Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. Costs. To date, we have not incurred any material costs in identifying or evaluating Year 2000 compliance issues. Most of our expenses have been and will continue to be related to the operating costs associated with evaluating Year 2000 compliance matters generally. Risks. We are not currently aware of any Year 2000 compliance problems that would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. However, we may discover Year 2000 compliance problems that will require substantial software revisions or replacement of hardware. Our failure to fix or replace software or hardware on a timely basis could result in lost revenues, increased operating costs and the loss of customers and other business interruptions, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, the failure to adequately address Year 2000 compliance issues could result in claims of mismanagement, misrepresentation or breach of contract and related litigation, which could be costly and time-consuming to defend. In addition, we cannot assure you that third-party software or hardware incorporated into our material systems or other systems upon which we rely will not need to be revised or replaced, which could be time consuming and expensive. In addition, we cannot assure you that governmental agencies, utility companies, third-party service providers and others outside of our control will be Year 2000 compliant. The failure by such entities to be Year 2000 compliant could result in a systemic failure beyond our control. Any of these occurrences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. At this time, we do not possess the information necessary to estimate the potential costs of revisions to or the replacement of software or hardware that are determined not to be Year 2000 compliant. Although we do not anticipate that such expenses will be material, such expenses, if higher than anticipated, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Contingency Plan. As discussed above, we are engaged in an ongoing Year 2000 assessment and have not yet developed any contingency plans. The results of our Year 2000 simulation testing and the responses received from third-party vendors and service providers will be taken into account in determining the nature and extent of any contingency plans. 15 BUSINESS Introduction Intelli-Check was formed in 1994 to develop, manufacture and market an advanced document verification system to enable a retailer to: o determine the customer's age and the validity of the I.D. to detect and prevent the use of fraudulent identification for the purchase of alcohol, tobacco and other age-restricted products; o reduce the risk to the retailer of substantial monetary fines, criminal penalties and license revocation for the sale of age-restricted products to minors; and o reduce check cashing, credit card and other types of fraud. In an effort to combat these problems, the federal government and many states and Canadian provinces have enacted laws requiring businesses that sell age-restricted products to verify the ID of potential customers to determine if they are of legal age. These laws impose stringent penalties. In addition, many states and local governments are setting up undercover "sting" operations to detect violations. The product we have designed and developed is based on our patented ID-Check technology. ID-Check provides businesses with a reliable, simple and cost-effective way to verify age and reduce the risk of severe penalties for non-compliance with these laws. We have not manufactured or sold a substantial number of ID-Check terminals to date. In 1998, we launched a limited pre-production pilot program by installing an earlier version of our ID-Check terminal in 68 locations throughout the United States and Canada. Of the 68 installations, 32 are convenience stores, 24 are bars and 12 are in a variety of other retail establishments. Based on the positive reaction of our customers, we have begun commercial production of an enhanced ID-Check terminal for more widespread distribution. Driver license The driver license is the most widely used form of government issued photo identification. We believe the driver license has become a de facto identification card. In addition to its primary function, the driver license is used in social services, gun control, check cashing and other applications. Non-driver identification card Although many people do not have a driver license, jurisdictions that use AAMVA compliant driver licenses offer other identification cards that contain encoded information. These identification cards, as well as military ID's and immigration "Green" cards, are fundamentally identical to driver licenses. Because driver licenses are the most widely used form of legally acceptable governmental identification we refer to all of these types of documents as "driver licenses" in this prospectus. Our ID-Check software is equally capable of performing its function with all of these types of government identification. AAMVA guidelines In response to the ease with which driver licenses and non-driver identification cards can be altered, tampered with or fraudulently obtained, an increasing number of states and Canadian provinces have adopted the guidelines established by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). AAMVA is a U.S. based international organization that establishes guidelines for motor vehicle administrators in NAFTA countries. Currently, 32 states and 6 Canadian provinces conform with AAMVA guidelines that suggest driver licenses and non-driver identification cards contain "encoded" information on magnetic stripes or bar codes, which cannot be accurately read without the necessary decoding equipment and technology. Based on our discussions with government officials, manufacturers of driver licenses and members of various other driver license committees, we expect that additional U.S. states and Canadian provinces will implement plans to issue driver licenses that contain information in electronically readable format complying with AAMVA guidelines. 16 Underage Use of Alcohol and Tobacco Products and the Need for Age Verification Overview Underage access to age-restricted products, like alcohol and tobacco, remains a major societal problem, as the following statistics indicate: o according to Connecticut Clearinghouse, approximately 10.6 million or 51.2% of high school students in the United States drink alcoholic beverages at least once weekly, with 86% purchasing the alcohol themselves; o the Office of Drug Control Policy reported that approximately 9.5 million drinkers of alcoholic beverages in 1996 were between the ages of 12 and 20, according to the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention; o The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has said that, in 1997, 26% of 16-20 year olds fatally injured in motor vehicle crashes had high blood alcohol concentrations; o according to the Journal of Adolescent Health, approximately 3,000 minors begin smoking regularly every day; o join together Online's Fact Finder reports that underage youths can purchase cigarettes successfully 70%-80% of the time over the counter and 90%-100% of the time through vending machines; and o Join Together also reports that each year merchants illegally sell minors 947 million packs of cigarettes and 26 million containers of chewing tobacco worth $1.26 billion. To combat these problems, most states have enacted laws which provide for substantial penalties for businesses that sell tobacco and alcohol to minors. Regulation of retailers of tobacco products New federal regulations have been enacted that place a greater burden on retailers to prevent the sale of tobacco products to minors. Clerks are required to check the photo ID of anyone who is trying to purchase tobacco products and appears to be under the age of 27. According to the Coalition for Tobacco Retailing, penalties for the sale of tobacco products to minors include: o state fines of up to $6,000 per violation and/or 1 year in jail; o federal fines of up to $10,000 for the fifth violation and discretionary penalties for any subsequent violations; o criminal charges against the selling establishment and/or its employees; and o revocation or suspension of the retailer's tobacco license. Regulation of retailers of alcoholic beverages The retailer of alcoholic products who sells to an underage person will face fines, suspension of its license and the potential outright revocation of its license to sell alcoholic beverages. According to "Youth and Alcohol, Selected Reports to the Surgeon General," published by the U.S. Department of Education, state imposed penalties for the sale of alcohol to minors include: o fines of up to $10,000 and/or 5 years in jail; o administrative penalties levied by alcoholic beverage control agencies ranging from fines of up to $5,000 and a six-month license suspension; o criminal charges against owner and/or employees; and o "dram shop" laws which permit civil lawsuits to be brought against businesses. 17 Some statistics concerning enforcement activity o according to the Washington State Liquor Control Board, in June 1999, the State of Washington visited 273 locations to detect tobacco sale violations. 15.38% of the businesses visited were found to have sold tobacco products to underage persons o during 1997 - 1998, the State of California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control conducted 291 "Minor Decoy Operations", each consisting of multiple on-site checks. Of the 6,568 visits to Alcoholic Beverage Control licensed businesses, 20.63% or 1,355 were found to have sold alcoholic beverages to the decoy o the State of California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control has said that most of the accusations filed for violations against alcohol licensees in California are for sales of alcoholic beverages to minors o as reported in the Orlando Sentinel, in 1998, the Florida State Department of Highway Safety reviewed 5,973 fraud cases in Florida and invalidated 19% or 1,143 of the driver licenses inspected. As a result of these and other law enforcement efforts and regulatory penalties, we believe retailers that sell alcohol and tobacco, such as liquor stores, bars and convenience stores, are facing increasing pressure to accurately verify the age of their customers. The use of false identification Fraudulent driver licenses can be easily produced using readily available, advanced color copiers and other equipment. These false documents are easily obtainable from a number of locations, such as college campuses, and over the Internet. Starting with only a fraudulent driver license, an individual, in addition to buying alcohol and tobacco products while underage, may be able to create multiple identities, commit fraud, evade law enforcement and engage in other criminal activities, such as: o forging checks supported by false identification; o providing additional identification for the use of stolen credit cards; o creating a false identity in order to evade law enforcement; and o unlawfully obtaining welfare or other government benefits. Given the ease with which identification can be falsified, simply looking at a driver license may not be sufficient to verify age or identity and determine whether or not it is fraudulent. Rather, what is needed is a system which can accurately read the electronically stored information. We are not aware of any other patented software application technology that provides an analysis of all the data contained on these documents for the purpose of age and document verification by reading and comparing the information encoded in all of the tracks of the magnetic stripe or bar code on the driver license. ID-Check Solution and Benefits We believe the ID-Check solution is the most advanced, reliable and effective technology, providing retailers with an easy to use, reliable, and cost-effective method of age and identity verification. We have received encoding and encryption formats from each jurisdiction that conforms to AAMVA guidelines, including military and immigration authorities in the U.S. and Canada. This information, combined with our patented technology, enables the ID-Check software to read, decode and process all of the information electronically stored on driver licenses. As jurisdictions and AAMVA change their documents and guidelines, we believe our software, together with our programmable terminal, can be adapted to these changes. ID-Check terminals do not require a connection to a central data base to operate. Our terminals have the ability to operate add-on peripherals such as printers, bar code scanners, modems and other devices, which would enhance the functionality of the terminals and potentially create the opportunity for sales of other software products by us. The ID-Check process is quick, simple and easy to use. After matching the photograph on the driver license to the person presenting the document for identification, the clerk or employee simply swipes the driver 18 license through the ID-Check terminal if the card has a magnetic stripe or scans it if it has a bar code. The terminal quickly determines if the document: o has been altered; o has expired; and o has a date of birth equal to or greater than the legal age to purchase either or both alcohol and tobacco products in the retailer's location. Then, the terminal will automatically: o print a record of the transaction including the results on a roll of paper similar to that used in cash registers, if an optional printer has been installed; o save information to the terminal's own memory to be downloaded at a later time; o respond to the user by illuminating an appropriate, easily recognizable symbol reflecting the results for both alcohol and tobacco, or in words on the terminal's screen; and o send the results to a PC for permanent storage and/or analysis in conjunction with our related software products. Other currently available age verification products Unless a device can read, decode and analyze all of the information electronically stored on a driver license, the user may not obtain accurate and reliable confirmation that a driver license is valid and has not been altered or tampered with. We are aware of several companies, including Secure ID LLC and The IdentiScan Company, LLC, that are currently offering products that electronically read and calculate age from a driver license. We have tested and compared some of these products to ID-Check and believe that our product is superior in quality and functionality. These other products are based on credit card terminal equipment. Most cannot process bar codes. This is a significant disadvantage because nearly 22% of the currently issued driver licenses contain bar codes. In addition, most of these other products cannot connect to a PC or use a printer. Furthermore, these products cannot distinguish between a credit card and a driver license, thus limiting their effectiveness. We also believe that some of these products may infringe on our patent. In determining whether and when it is appropriate to commence litigation to protect our intellectual property rights, we intend to carefully examine each instance of potential infringement on a case-by-case basis and to weigh the potential damage caused by any infringement against the demands a patent infringement litigation would place on our financial and management resources. There are also products being marketed which are essentially electronic calendars designed to assist the retailer in calculating the age of the person presenting a driver license. These devices, however, cannot determine whether a driver license is valid or has been altered. A small number of laminate verifiers are currently used to determine the validity of the laminate on a driver license. However, laminate verifiers are fragile, not reliable and can only be used in one state, New York, which is currently considering replacing the laminate in its next generation of licenses. Our Marketing and Distribution Strategy Our objective is to become the leading developer and distributor of age and document verification products. To date, we have engaged in limited marketing efforts primarily through management's participation in trade shows. We are developing a comprehensive marketing plan to build customer awareness and develop brand recognition in target markets. Initially, we intend to promote the advantages and ease of use of the ID-Check terminal through: o trade publications; o trade shows; o conventions and seminars; o direct mail; and o our website. 19 We also intend to seek endorsements from leading companies in the alcohol and tobacco industries, public interest organizations and trade associations, which we believe have an interest in discouraging illegal purchases of age-restricted products. As we gain market acceptance of the ID-Check terminal, we intend to commence marketing efforts for subsequent upgrades and related software applications. Distribution strategy In April 1999, we hired a director of national sales and in October 1999 we hired a vice president-sales. We intend to use a portion of the proceeds from this offering to prepare additional marketing materials, hire additional sales and marketing support staff and continue to develop our marketing strategy. Our initial target markets Our initial target markets for the ID-Check terminal will be retail establishments. We intend to initially focus our marketing efforts towards: o convenience stores; o bars and night clubs; o restaurants; and o retail beer and liquor stores. Independent sales organizations Management estimates there are thousands of businesses referred to as independent sales organizations (ISO's), which specialize in marketing equipment having a purchase price of under $5,000. We have entered into an agreement with Northern Leasing Systems, a leading privately-held equipment lease finance company specializing in this type of equipment, to be our exclusive lease finance company and the exclusive marketer of our ID-Check product to ISO's. The agreement automatically renews annually, subject to Northern Leasing having purchased, either directly or through ISO's, 2,500 terminals by the end of the first year, 12,000 terminals by the end of the second year and 15,000 terminals each year thereafter. We believe that the ID-Check terminal is a complementary product that can be sold or leased to many of the ISO's existing customers. Distributors of alcohol and tobacco products Many distributors of alcohol and tobacco products sell related products and supplies to retail merchants. We believe the ID-Check terminal is a complementary product and offers a marketing opportunity to these distributors. We are currently in discussions with a distributor of alcohol and tobacco products, with a view to entering into a distribution agreement under which the distributor would receive the exclusive right to distribute the ID-Check terminal within a specified territory to retail merchants of alcohol products. This right would expire if the distributor fails to meet specified sales goals. We do not know if we will be successful in entering into this agreement. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that any such arrangement would be profitable. Revenue Sources We initially intend to generate revenues from the sale or lease of ID-Check terminals and sale of software upgrade cards. ID-Check terminals Our patented ID-Check software will initially be installed in a self-contained terminal similar to those commonly used as credit card terminals, which we intend to market to retailers for approximately $2,000 each. Upgrade cards Our software will require periodic updates as states that did not previously conform to AAMVA guidelines begin to store electronically readable information on their driver licenses and as states adjust or modify the 20 format of their electronically stored information. We intend to sell upgrade cards which can be used to instantly upgrade the terminal by simply swiping the upgrade card through the ID-Check terminal. Because each terminal has a unique serial number, the upgrade card will only work with that terminal, making unauthorized copying of these cards valueless. We also intend to develop a secure way of delivering upgrades through the Internet. The ID-Check guide to US and Canadian ID's The United States and Canada are moving toward uniformity in their driver licenses and identification cards. However, some states and provinces have not yet adopted AAMVA and/or ANSI guidelines. Because of our familiarity with these government documents, we intend to offer a printed manual to provide financial institutions, government agencies and retail stores with a method of verifying document authenticity when documents are presented which do not have information electronically stored on either a magnetic stripe or bar code. We intend to market this product directly through our sales personnel. Additional Target Customers In addition to retailers of alcohol and tobacco products, others that could benefit by using the ID-Check terminal include: o car rental agencies; o hotels and motels; o stadiums and arenas; o firearm merchants; o gaming establishments; o movie theaters; o law enforcement agencies; and o vending machine manufacturers. Products in Development We have begun developing the following products: MAVE. In April 1998, we built two prototypes of a hand-held portable version of our ID-Check terminal specifically designed for law enforcement. We have trademarked this product as MAVE for Mobile Age Verification and Enforcement. One prototype was loaned to the State of Florida's Division of Alcoholic Beverage & Tobacco Control's Tobacco Pilot Program for Enforcement. In March 1999, we shipped three units to enable the Division to begin a pilot program to fully evaluate MAVE. After the completion of this offering, we intend to begin limited commercial production of MAVE. P-Link. P-Link is a software application designed to replicate the features of ID-Check using existing hardware (or with minimal additional hardware components) included in Point-Of-Sale (POS) terminals for multi-lane retailers such as grocery and mass-retail stores. The POS terminal would halt the purchase of age-restricted products until a driver license is verified by the P-Link software application. Once the age-verification process has been completed, the terminal would block age-restricted products from being totaled into the sale if the unit shows that the customer is underage. This product is intended to be marketed directly to manufacturers and integrators of POS terminals to expand their product capabilities. C-Link and M-Link. We have developed and distributed two pre-production Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT compatible software products that work in conjunction with our ID-Check terminal. These products are called C-Link and M-Link. C-Link collects the information read by the ID-Check terminal and saves it to a PC hard drive for permanent storage. Once saved, the information can be searched, analyzed and used to easily generate demographics, statistics and mailing lists to existing customers. M-Link expands C-Link's abilities to maintain memberships and customer loyalty programs to encourage repeat customers. M-Link is intended to be sold separately as a service pack, which extends the functionality of C-Link's software. 21 Possible Future Uses for our Technology We believe that our patented ID-Check technology has applications in a variety of other areas. Some examples of potential users for ID-Check technology include: o airlines, since FAA regulations require passengers over 18 years old to produce a valid driver license or other form of legally acceptable picture identification in order to board any airliner domestically; o credit card terminal manufacturers, which could use our technology to verify that the credit card holder has presented a valid driver license prior to processing the purchase; and o financial services companies, which could use our technology to verify the validity of a driver license presented in connection with check cashing, opening a new account or a mortgage application. Although we anticipate that this effort will require an indeterminate amount of time and resources, we intend to use a portion of the $400,000 of the proceeds of this offering allocated for product development to begin developing these possible future uses for our technology. We do not currently have more specific plans to develop any of them. In addition, we may in the future seek to license our technology to manufacturers of scanning devices or others to enhance the functionality of their products. We do not currently have any specific plans to enter into these types of licenses. Manufacturing We have engaged a subsidiary of Welch Allyn, Inc., a leading privately-held manufacturer of medical equipment and bar code readers and scanners, to provide a programmable terminal to operate our patented ID-Check software. We have placed an order for 525 ID-Check terminals, which are expected to be delivered during November 1999. These terminals will have most, but not all, of the features of an upgraded version of our initial product. Most of the net proceeds of the private placement in August and September 1999 were used to purchase approximately 1,000 units of an upgraded version of our ID-Check terminal. We expect delivery of these terminals to begin in the first quarter of 2000, which will enable us to commence more widespread marketing. Technical Support and Maintenance The ID-Check hardware terminals are certified by Underwriters Laboratory (UL) and its European equivalent (CE) for retail use and are virtually maintenance-free other than occasional surface cleaning. Technical support will be provided by us to our customers through: o our website (E-mail) on the Internet; o tips and hints on our website; and o a toll-free number. Technical support will be provided during normal business hours and a voice mailbox will be capable of taking messages during non-business hours. Competition We expect that competition may become intense in the markets addressed by us. We may compete with a large number of companies, many of which may be substantially larger and have significantly greater capital and management resources than we do. We believe that we may have some advantage over potential competitors because we have been issued one patent and five copyrights on our software and because of the substantial time that we have spent in developing our software and hardware and in developing a substantial database of information relating to the encoded information of each jurisdiction. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully. 22 Intellectual Property In January 1999, we were issued a patent on our ID-Check software technology. We have also been granted five copyrights in the United States, which are effective in Canada and 17 other major industrial countries. The patent covers a specific process relating to ID-Check, including age verification from a driver license. In addition, the copyright protection covers software source codes and supporting graphics relating to the operation of ID-Check and other software products. We have also received several trademarks relating to our company, its product names, and logos. We cannot assure you as to the degree of protection which the patent may afford, or that our patent would be upheld if challenged or that other companies will not develop similar or superior methods or products outside the protection of the patent issued to us. We also rely on proprietary knowledge and employ various methods, including confidentiality agreements, to protect our software codes, concepts, ideas and documentation of our proprietary technology. However, these methods may not afford complete protection and we cannot assure you that others will not independently develop similar knowledge. Under an agreement with Mr. Messina, we will pay royalties equal to 0.005% of gross sales from $2,000,000 to $52,000,000 and 0.0025% of gross sales in excess of $52,000,000. The IdentiScan Company, LLC offers a product that electronically reads and calculates age from a driver license. Representatives of IdentiScan had met with us on several occasions in the past, at their suggestion, to discuss a merger between the two companies. We declined to proceed with those discussions. We have informed IdentiScan that we believe its product may infringe on our patent. In response, in August 1999, IdentiScan filed a complaint against us which seeks to have the IdentiScan product declared non-infringing on our patent and seeks to have our patent declared invalid. The complaint does not seek monetary damages. We believe that our patent, to which we hold clear title, is valid and fully enforceable. We intend to vigorously defend it. We also believe IdentiScan's claim of non-infringement is without merit. In October 1999, we made a motion to dismiss IdentiScan's claim. This motion is currently pending. However, if our patent were to be declared invalid or if our patent were to be otherwise limited, we believe it would have an adverse effect on our business and future success because other companies, including IdentiScan, might be able to use some or all of the technology covered by our patent to develop and market products which will directly compete with ID-Check. We are not aware of any infringement by our products or technology on the proprietary rights of others. Nevertheless, infringement or invalidity claims may be asserted against us and we could incur significant expense in defending them. If any claims or actions are asserted against us, we may be required to modify our products or seek licenses for these intellectual property rights. We may not be able to modify our products or obtain licenses on commercially reasonable terms, in a timely manner or at all. Our failure to do so could adversely affect our business. Employees As of October 27, 1999, we had fourteen full-time employees, including three who are engaged in executive management, four programmers, four in sales and marketing and three administrative staff. We believe our relations with our employees are generally good and we have no collective bargaining agreements with any labor unions. Facilities Our executive offices are located in Huntington, New York, where we occupy approximately 4,200 square feet of leased space pursuant to a lease expiring on October 31, 2000. Minimum payments under the lease are $78,420 per year for 1999 and with a maximum increase of no greater than 4% for each remaining year of the lease. Legal Proceedings We are in dispute with our landlord, Huntington Atrium, which brought a lawsuit against us in 1998 in the District Court, County of Suffolk, State of New York, relating to our original occupancy date and to determine the party responsible for improvements to the space. The landlord's claim is for approximately $177,000 and 23 our counterclaim is for approximately $50,000. While we believe that we have meritorious defenses to the landlord's claim, an adverse decision would not have a material adverse effect on our company. As discussed above, in August 1999, IdentiScan filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut which seeks to have the IdentiScan product declared non-infringing on our patent and seeks to have our patent declared invalid. The complaint does not seek monetary damages. We believe that our patent, to which we hold clear title, is valid and fully enforceable. We intend to vigorously defend it. We also believe IdentiScan's claim of non-infringement is without merit. In October 1999, we made a motion to dismiss IdentiScan's claim. This motion is currently pending. Other than as set forth above, we are not currently involved in any legal or regulatory proceeding, or arbitration, the outcome of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on our business. 24 MANAGEMENT Executive Officers and Directors The following table sets forth the ages of and positions and offices presently held by each director and executive officer of Intelli-Check:

The options shown above were granted under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, are exercisable at $3.00 per share, and generally expire five years after the date of grant. Mr. Cohen's options expire on August 15, 2000. Messrs. Mandelbaum and Messina have Employment Agreements expiring December 31, 2001, which provide for base annual salaries of $225,000, subject to specified conditions. Because of our limited resources, Messrs. Mandelbaum and Messina have from time to time agreed to defer the receipt of substantial portions of their salaries. In May 1999, Mr. Mandelbaum's deferred salary was reduced by $150,000 by the issuance to him of 75,000 shares of our common stock and warrants entitling him to purchase an additional 75,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $3.00 per share at any time prior to May 3, 2001. In May 1999, Mr. Messina's deferred salary was reduced by $10,126 through the issuance to him of 5,063 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 5,063 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share at any time prior to May 3, 2001. As of June 30, 1999, Mr. Mandelbaum's deferred salary was approximately $375,000, Mr. Messina's deferred salary was approximately $200,000 and Mr. Todd Cohen's deferred salary was approximately $110,000. In June 1999, Mr. Messina received, in lieu of all deferred salary, options to purchase 27 207,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. Also in June 1999, Mr. Mandelbaum received, in lieu of all deferred salary, options to purchase 375,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. Mr. Cohen resigned as President in April 1998. In June 1999, Mr. Cohen received, in lieu of all deferred salary, options to purchase 110,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00. All the options granted in exchange for deferred salary expire five years after the date of grant. The following table summarizes options granted during the year ended December 31, 1998 to the named executive officers:
Potential Realizable Value at Individual Grants Assumed Annual ------------------------------------------------- Rates of Number of % of Total Stock Price Securities Options Appreciation for Underlying Granted to Option Term Options Employees in Exercise Expiration ----------------------- Name Granted Fiscal Year Price Date 5% 10% - ----- ---------- ------------ -------- ---------- --- --- Frank Mandelbaum ......... 50,000 91% $3.00 9/04/03 $41,442 $91,577
These options were granted pursuant to our 1998 Stock Option Plan. The options granted to Mr. Mandelbaum are fully vested. During the year ended December 31, 1998, we granted employees other than Mr. Mandelbaum options to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock under the 1998 Stock Option Plan. The amounts shown as potential realizable value represent hypothetical gains that could be achieved for the respective options if exercised at the end of the option term. The 5% and 10% assumed annual rates of compounded stock price appreciation are mandated by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not represent our estimate or projection of our future common stock prices. These amounts represent certain assumed rates of appreciation in the value of our common stock from the fair market value on the date of grant. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises are dependent on the future performance of the common stock and overall stock market conditions. The amounts reflected in the table may not necessarily be achieved. Pursuant to their employment agreements, Messrs. Mandelbaum and Messina each received a grant in August 1999 of options to purchase 75,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share. Each of the options become exercisable with respect to 25,000 shares of our common stock on January 1, 2000, an additional 25,000 shares of our common stock on January 1, 2001, and the final 25,000 shares of our common stock on January 1, 2002. The options expire five years from the date of grant. Employment Agreements Effective January 1, 1999, Mr. Mandelbaum and Mr. Messina each entered into a three-year employment agreement with Intelli-Check. Each of the agreements provides for a base salary of $225,000. However, until such time as we receive payment for gross sales of at least $1,000,000, the salaries are capped at $150,000. The agreements also provide for the payment of a bonus if our sales exceed $2,000,000 in the previous year. The bonus will be in the amount of $50,000 plus 1% of the amount of sales in excess of $2,000,000 in each year. In addition, for each fiscal year ending during the term of the employment agreements, we will grant to each of the executives an option to purchase the greater of 25,000 shares of our common stock at fair market value on the date of grant or 10,000 shares of our common stock at fair market value on the date of grant for each full $250,000 by which pre-tax profits for each year exceeds pre-tax profits for the prior fiscal year. However, we are not required to grant options to purchase more than 150,000 shares of our common stock with respect to any one fiscal year. If there shall occur a change of control, as defined in the employment agreement, the employee may terminate his employment at any time and be entitled to receive a payment equal to 2.99 times his average annual compensation, including bonuses, during the three years preceding the date of termination, payable in cash to the extent of three months' salary and the balance in shares of our common stock based on a valuation of $2.00 per share. Included within the definition of change of control is the first day on which a majority of the directors of the company do not consist of individuals recommended by Messrs. Mandelbaum, Messina and one outside director. 28 We have entered into a two-year employment agreement with Mr. Winiarz, which became effective on September 7, 1999. The agreement provides for a base salary of $125,000. In addition, we granted Mr. Winiarz an option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock, of which 10,000 options are immediately exercisable at $5.00 per share, 20,000 options are immediately exercisable at $7.00 per share and 20,000 options will become exercisable on September 7, 2000 at $7.00 per share. We entered into a two-year employment agreement with Mr. Holloway, which became effective on October 25, 1999. The agreement provides for a base salary of $115,000. In addition, we granted Mr. Holloway an option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at $7.00 per share, of which 20,000 shares are immediately exercisable and 5,000 shares become exercisable for each 10,000 sales of ID-Check products sold that exceed 10,000. The maximum options that can be earned in any calendar year may not exceed 100,000. Any options earned above the initial 50,000 options will be at fair market value on the date of grant. Under the terms of the agreements, each of the executives has the right to receive his compensation in the form of shares of common stock valued at 50% of the closing bid price of our shares of common stock as of the date of the employee's election, which is to be made at the beginning of each quarter. In addition, each of the employment agreements requires the executive to devote substantially all his time and efforts to our business and contains non-competition and nondisclosure covenants of the officer for the term of his employment and for a period of two years thereafter. Each employment agreement provides that we may terminate the agreement for cause. Stock Option Plans 1998 Stock Option Plan. Our 1998 Stock Option Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and stockholders in June 1998. Up to 400,000 shares of our common stock have been authorized and reserved for issuance under the plan. Under the plan, options may be granted in the form of incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options from time to time to employees, officers, directors and consultants of Intelli-Check, as determined by the compensation committee of the board of directors. The compensation committee determines the terms and conditions of options granted under the plan, including the exercise price. The plan provides that the committee must establish an exercise price for incentive stock options that is not less than the fair market value per share at the date of the grant. However, if incentive stock options are granted to persons owning more than 10% of the voting stock of Intelli-Check, the plan provides that the exercise price must not be less than 110% of the fair market value per share at the date of the grant. Each option must expire within five years of the date of the grant. There are currently 340,000 immediately exercisable options outstanding which have been granted under the plan, all of which are exercisable at $3.00 per share. 1999 Stock Option Plan. Our 1999 Stock Option Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and stockholders in August 1999. Up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock have been authorized and reserved for issuance under the plan. Under the plan, options may be granted in the form of incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options from time to time to employees, officers, directors and consultants of Intelli-Check, as determined by the compensation committee of the board of directors. The compensation committee determines the terms and conditions of options granted under the plan, including the exercise price. The plan provides that the committee must establish an exercise price for incentive stock options that is not less than the fair market value per share at the date of the grant. However, if incentive stock options are granted to persons owning more than 10% of the voting stock of Intelli-Check, the plan provides that the exercise price must not be less than 110% of the fair market value per share at the date of the grant. Each option must expire within five years of the date of the grant. There are currently 360,000 options outstanding which have been granted under the plan, 10,000 are immediately exercisable at $5.00 per share and 42,500 are immediately exercisable at $7.00 per share. The other 307,500, upon vesting over a period of years, will be exercisable at prices ranging from $3.00 - $7.00 per share. Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters As authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, our certificate of incorporation provides that none of our directors shall be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for: 29 o any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to our company or its stockholders o acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law o unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock redemptions or repurchases o any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit This provision limits our rights and the rights of our stockholders to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of the fiduciary duty of care except in the situations described above. This provision does not limit our rights or the rights of any stockholder to seek injunctive relief or rescission if a director breaches his duty of care. In addition, our certificate of incorporation provides that if the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to further limit the liability of a director, then the liability of the directors shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by such amendment. These provisions will not alter the liability of directors under federal securities laws. Our certificate of incorporation further provides for the indemnification of any and all persons who serve as our director, officer, employee or agent to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. 30 PRINCIPAL AND SELLING STOCKHOLDERS The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus and as adjusted to reflect the sale by us of the 1,000,000 shares of common stock offered under this prospectus, certain information regarding beneficial ownership of Intelli-Check's common stock by each person who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock and each other person for whose benefit we are registering shares of common stock. The table also identifies the stock ownership of each of our directors, each of our officers, and all directors and officers as a group. Except as otherwise indicated, the stockholders listed in the table have sole voting and investment powers with respect to the shares indicated. Unless otherwise indicated, the address for each of the named individuals is c/o Intelli-Check, Inc., 775 Park Avenue, Huntington, New York 11743. Shares of common stock which an individual or group has a right to acquire within 60 days pursuant to the exercise or conversion of options, warrants or other similar convertible or derivative securities are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such individual or group, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person shown in the table. The applicable percentage of ownership is based on 5,271,152 shares outstanding as of the date of this prospectus and 6,271,152 shares to be outstanding upon consummation of this offering, but does not include shares to be issued if the over-allotment option is exercised.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS In October 1994, Messrs. Todd Cohen and Kevin Messina co-founded Intelli-Check and each purchased 975,000 shares of common stock for $975. In April 1998, Mr. Todd Cohen resigned as an officer of our company for personal reasons and in August 1999, he completed his term as a director. In June 1996, Mr. Messina's company, K.M. Software, assigned two copyrights covering certain software employed by ID-Check and a patent application covering the ID-Check technology to Intelli-Check for an agreement to pay $98,151 plus interest. The agreement also gave K.M. Software, or its successor, the right to reclaim the rights to the copyrights and the patent under certain specified conditions. In May 1999, the prior agreement was superseded and in exchange Mr. Messina received 69,937 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 69,937 shares of our common stock, at $3.00 per share, exercisable at any time prior to May 3, 2001. The May 1999 agreement provides for the payment by Intelli-Check of royalties equal to 0.005% of gross sales from $2,000,000 to $52,000,000 and 0.0025% of gross sales in excess of $52,000,000. Also, in May 1999, Mr. Messina's deferred salary was reduced by $10,126 through the issuance to him of 5,063 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 5,063 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share at any time prior to May 3, 2001. In June 1999, the balance of Mr. Messina's deferred salary was reduced to zero by the issuance of options to purchase 207,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share at any time prior to June 30, 2004. In June 1996, Frank Mandelbaum, Intelli-Check's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, purchased 950,000 shares of common stock for $50,000. From time to time since then, Mr. Mandelbaum loaned money to Intelli-Check totaling $142,000. In November 1997, Mr. Mandelbaum converted his outstanding loans into 71,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 71,000 shares of our common stock at $3.00 per share expiring on June 30, 2000. In May 1999, Mr. Mandelbaum's deferred salary was reduced by $150,000 through the issuance to him of 75,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 75,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share at any time prior to May 3, 2001. In June 1999, Mr. Mandelbaum's deferred salary was reduced to zero by the issuance of options to purchase 375,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share at any time prior to June 30, 2004. 32 In November 1997, one of our directors, Paul Cohen, received an option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock exercisable at $3.00 per share in connection with a one-year consulting agreement. Also in November 1997, Mr. Cohen's wife purchased 25,000 units consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock for $3.00 in connection with one of our private placements. The purchase price was $50,000. In August 1999, Mr. Cohen purchased one unit in connection with our most recent private placement. The unit consists of a promissory note having a principal amount of $50,000, bearing interest at the annual rate of 10% and a warrant to purchase 2,500 shares of our common stock for $3.00 per share. In June 1999, all deferred compensation due to Todd Cohen, our former President and director, was eliminated by the issuance of options to purchase 110,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share at any time prior to June 30, 2004. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES Common Stock Our company is authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value. Common stockholders are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders. Common stockholders are entitled to receive proportionately any dividends which may be declared on the common stock by the board of directors. Upon the liquidation of Intelli-Check, common stockholders are entitled to share proportionately in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over common stock. Common stockholders do not have any priority right over others to purchase securities we may issue in the future. They also do not have any right to convert their common stock into any other securities. Preferred Stock Intelli-Check is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share. In January 1998, the New York State Science and Technology Foundation converted our promissory note in the amount of $250,000 into 125,000 shares of series A convertible preferred stock. Also in January, we sold 125,000 shares of preferred stock to the Foundation for $250,000. The preferred stock was convertible into common stock at any time at the initial conversion rate of one for one. In July 1999, the Foundation exercised its conversion rights and received 250,000 shares of common stock in exchange for its preferred stock. The Board of Directors may issue additional shares of preferred stock in the future. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the Board of Directors, without further action by stockholders. These rights may include special voting rights, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion and redemption rights and sinking fund provisions. Additional rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our company's ability to merge with or sell its assets to a third party, thereby preserving control by present owners. Warrants From time to time in connection with financings used to fund our development, we have issued warrants to purchase our common stock. As of October 27, 1999, there were warrants outstanding to purchase 888,500 shares of our common stock expiring on June 30, 2000 and warrants outstanding to purchase 892,600 shares of our common stock expiring on various dates up to August 2002. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock for $3.00. If certain circumstances occur, we have the right to redeem the outstanding warrants at a price of $.01 per warrant on not less than 20 days written notice if the last sale price of the common stock has averaged at least $4.50 per share for the 20 consecutive trading days ending at least five days prior to the date on which notice is given for some of the warrants and $6.00 per share for certain other warrants. Registration Rights Allan Binder, who holds 10,000 shares of common stock, is entitled to piggyback registration rights, under the Securities Act, with respect to those shares. Jesup & Lamont Securities Corp., which holds a warrant to 33 purchase 7,500 units, each of which consists of one share of common stock and an additional warrant to purchase one share of common stock, is entitled to piggyback registration rights with respect to those 15,000 shares. These 25,000 shares are being registered under this prospectus. In connection with this offering, we have agreed to grant to the underwriters certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the 100,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the underwriters' warrants. In addition, the holders of warrants to purchase 60,000 shares of our common stock are entitled to piggyback registration rights and one demand registration right under specified conditions. The demand registration right is exercisable at any time from one year to five years after the effective date of this prospectus by the holders of warrants exercisable into a majority of the shares. The piggyback registration rights become effective after this offering. Delaware Anti-Takeover Law We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. That section requires the vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock of a company not owned by an interested stockholder to approve certain business combinations. Section 203 defines interested stockholder as any entity or person owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the company and any entity or person affiliated with, controlling on controlled by such entity or person. As a result, this statute may discourage attempts to acquire Intelli-Check, including attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders. Our by-laws provide that stockholders must comply with an advance notice procedure for the nomination of candidates for election as directors as well as for other stockholder proposals to be considered at annual meetings of stockholders. In general, notice of intent to nominate a director or raise matters at annual meetings will have to be received by us. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before an annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors. The authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of Intelli-Check by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise. Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent The transfer agent for the common stock and the warrant agent for the underwriters' warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Immediately after the closing of this offering, we will have 6,271,152 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Of this total, 1,010,000 shares registered hereby together with 1,164,500 shares previously issued and held for more than two years will be freely tradeable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except for any shares purchased by an "affiliate" of our company (in general, a person who has a controlling position with regard to the company). Shares held by an affiliate will be subject to the resale limitations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. All of the remaining 4,096,652 shares of common stock currently outstanding are "restricted securities". These shares will become eligible for sale at various times beginning 90 days following the date of this prospectus when 394,605 shares will be eligible to be sold, and the balance of the restricted shares will become eligible for sale at various times beginning April 2, 2000, subject to the contractual provisions described below. In addition, there are 3,873,100 shares subject to currently outstanding options or warrants, or reserved for future issuance. In addition, we have granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights to the underwriters with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the underwriters' warrants. 34 Our officers, directors and 5% shareholders have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock or exercise any registration rights for a period not to exceed twelve months following the date of this prospectus without the underwriters' prior written consent. Upon the expiration of the twelve-month period, 3,358,447 shares of our common stock will become eligible for sale, in some cases subject to volume restrictions under Rule 144. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of common stock or the availability of such shares for sale will have on the market price prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless, the possibility that substantial amounts of common stock may be sold in the public market may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the common stock and could impair our company's ability to raise capital through the sale of its equity securities. UNDERWRITING The underwriters named below have severally agreed, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the underwriting agreement relating to this offering, to purchase from our company the number of shares set forth opposite their names below: Name Number of Shares ----- ---------------- GunnAllen Financial, Inc. .................................. Starr Securities, Inc. ..................................... --------- Total .................................................... 1,000,000 ========= The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriters are subject to approval of certain legal matters by counsel and to various other conditions. The nature of the underwriters' obligations is such that they are committed to purchase and pay for all of the shares of common stock if any are purchased. The underwriters have advised us that they propose to offer the shares of common stock to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. The underwriters may allow certain dealers who are members of the NASD concessions, not in excess of $_____ per share, of which not in excess of $______ per share may be reallowed to other dealers who are members of the NASD. Up to 100,000 shares are being reserved by the underwriters to be offered at the initial public offering price to some of our employees, business associates and other persons, who have expressed an interest in purchasing shares in this offering. The number of shares available for sale to the public will be reduced to the extent these individuals purchase the reserved shares. Any reserved shares not purchased by these individuals will be offered by the underwriters on the same basis as other shares offered in this offering. We have granted to the underwriters an option, exercisable not later than 30 days after the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to 150,000 shares at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters may exercise this option only to cover over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the sale of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment in full, the total price to the public would be $8,050,000, the total underwriting discounts and commissions would be $724,500 and the total proceeds (before payment of the expenses of this offering) to our company would be $7,325,500. We have agreed to pay to the underwriters a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 3% of the gross proceeds derived from the sale of the shares offered by this prospectus, including any securities sold prior to the underwriters' over-allotment option, $30,000 of which has been paid as of the date of this prospectus. We have also agreed to pay all expenses in connection with qualifying the shares offered under the laws of such states as the underwriters may designate, including expenses of counsel retained for such purpose by the underwriters. We estimate the expenses of this offering to be $375,000, or $469,500 if the underwriters' over-allotment option is completely exercised. We retained GunnAllen Financial as a consultant for the period March 1999 through June 1999. GunnAllen Financial received a fee consisting of a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, expiring March 24, 2002. Under this agreement, GunnAllen Financial provided us general financial advisory services. 35 GunnAllen Financial acted as placement agent for the $1,200,000 private placement made by us in August and September, 1999 and received a commission of $120,000 for its services. GunnAllen Financial has been appointed as our agent for the exercise of our outstanding warrants and will receive a fee of 5% of the exercise price if we redeem the warrants within twelve months of the date of this prospectus. At the closing of this offering, we will sell to the underwriters and their designees, for an aggregate of $100, underwriters' warrants to purchase up to 100,000 shares of common stock. The underwriters' warrants are exercisable at any time, in whole or in part, during the four-year period commencing one year from the date of this prospectus, at an exercise price of $7.70 per share (110% of the public offering price per share). The underwriters' warrants are only assignable or transferable to the officers and partners of the underwriters and members of the selling group for one year following the date of this prospectus. During the exercise period, the holders of the underwriters' warrants will have the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of the common stock, which will dilute the interests of our stockholders. We expect that the underwriters' warrants will be exercised when we would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain any capital needed on terms more favorable than those provided by the underwriters' warrant. Any profit realized by the underwriters on the sale of the underwriters' warrants, the underlying shares of common stock may be deemed additional underwriting compensation. The underwriters' warrants contain a cashless exercise provision. For a period of three years from the date of this prospectus, the underwriters will have a right of first refusal with respect to any private placements or underwriting of any future public offerings of our securities. We have agreed that, upon the request of the holders of the majority of the underwriters' warrants, we will (at our own expense), on one occasion during the exercise period, register the underwriters' warrants and the shares of common stock underlying the underwriters' warrants under the Securities Act. We have also agreed to include the underwriters' warrants and all such underlying shares of common stock in any appropriate registration statement which is filed by us under the Securities Act during the five years following the date of this prospectus. We have agreed, for a period of three years from the date of this prospectus, that the underwriters shall have the option to designate one individual as a non-voting adviser to our board of directors to attend any and all board and board committee meetings. The underwriters have not yet exercised and currently do not intend to exercise their right to designate such a person in the near future. All of our officers, directors and our 5% stockholders have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose any of their shares in the public markets for a period of twelve months from the date of this prospectus without the underwriters' prior written consent. The underwriters have informed us that they do not expect sales of the securities offered to discretionary accounts to exceed 1% of the shares offered by this prospectus. We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. We have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. Before this offering there has been no public market for the common stock. Accordingly, the initial public offering price of the common stock has been determined by negotiation between us and the underwriters and may not necessarily be related to our asset value, net worth or other established criteria of value. Factors to be considered in determining such price include our financial condition and prospects, an assessment of our management, market prices of similar securities of comparable publicly-traded companies, certain financial and operating information of companies engaged in activities similar to our business and the general condition of the securities market. In connection with this offering, the underwriters and selling group members and their respective affiliates may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of our common stock. Such transactions may include stabilization transactions effected in accordance with Regulation M of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, pursuant to which such persons may bid for or purchase common stock for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of our common stock at a level that is higher than the market would dictate in the absence of such transactions. 36 The underwriters may also create a short position for the account of the underwriters by selling more shares in connection with the offering than they are committed to purchase from us, and in such case may purchase common stock in the open market following the completion of the offering to cover all or a portion of their short position. The underwriters may also cover all or a portion of their short position, up to 150,000 shares, by exercising the over-allotment option described above. In addition, the underwriters may also impose a "penalty bid" under contractual arrangements whereby the underwriters may reclaim from a dealer participating in the offering the selling concession with respect to shares that are distributed in the offering but subsequently purchased for the account of the underwriters in the open market. In general, any of the transactions described above may result in the maintenance of the price of our common stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the absence of such transactions. We and the underwriters make no representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that such transactions may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, we and the underwriters make no representation that the underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these statements. F-6 Intelli-Check, Inc. Notes To Financial Statements 1. Nature of Business Intelli-Check, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in New York in October 1994 to develop, manufacture and market an advanced document verification system to enable a retailer to determine their customer's age and identity. The system may be used to detect and prevent the use of fraudulent identification for the purchase of alcohol, tobacco and other age-restricted products; to reduce the risk to the retailer of substantial monetary fines, criminal penalties and license revocation for the sale of age-restricted products to minors; and to reduce check cashing, credit card and other types of fraud. The Company has developed and patented the innovative software technology that is included in the advanced document verification system terminal called the "ID-Check." The ID-Check terminal, in which the Company's patented software is loaded, was designed to offer convenient and reliable age and document verification. The ID-Check reads, analyzes and displays the encoded information contained on driver licenses and most other forms of accepted government issued identification. In addition, the ID-Check product is capable of being upgraded to accommodate changes made by the governmental issuers of driver licenses and ID cards. The ID-Check terminal requires a quick swipe of the driver license or ID card by the retailer; displays a "yes", "no", "expired" or "tampered"; and creates a record of transactions as proof that the retailer has used proper due diligence. During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company commenced its principal operations by realizing sales of pre-production prototypes of ID-Check. The Company has completed its refinement of its software and has placed its initial order for 525 units of its ID-Check terminal under a supplier agreement with a third party (Note 10). Through December 31, 1998, the Company has incurred significant cumulative losses and has a net capital deficiency as of December 31, 1998. In addition, the Company's liquidity requirements have been and will continue to be significant. Management has developed a detailed plan and has taken certain actions in order to generate the funding necessary for the Company's operations, including: (1) a plan for marketing and sales of the Company's product, ID-Check (see above); (2) issuance of additional capital and debt (Note 10); (3) hiring and retaining key employees (Notes 9 and 10); and (4) effective cost control. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition Revenue on sales of the Company's product is recognized upon shipment to the customer. Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventory is comprised of finished goods. Long-Lived Assets The Company's policy is to record long-lived assets at cost, amortizing these costs over the expected useful life of the related assets, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of." These F-7 assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be reasonable. Furthermore, these assets are evaluated for continuing value and proper useful lives by comparison to undiscounted expected future cash flow projections. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. All fixed assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven years using the straight-line basis. Equipment held under capital leases is amortized utilizing the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the lease or estimated useful life of the asset in accordance with SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases." Patent Costs Patent costs, primarily consisting of legal costs, are amortized over a period of 17 years. Capitalized Software Development Costs SFAS No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," specifies that costs incurred internally in creating a computer software product shall be charged to expense when incurred as research and development until technological feasibility has been established for the product. Software production costs for computer software that is to be used as an integral part of a product or process shall not be capitalized until both (a) technological feasibility has been established for the software and (b) all research and development activities for the other components of the product or process have been completed. During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company completed both (a) and (b), as described above; however, no capitalized costs were incurred or recorded during the remainder of 1997 or 1998. Income Taxes Prior to 1998, the Company had elected to be treated as a Subchapter S Corporation for federal and state income tax purposes and, as a result, the losses of the Company were passed through directly to the shareholders. The Company did, however, remain liable for New York State Subchapter S income taxes. During 1998, the Company's tax status changed from an S Corporation to a C Corporation as a result of the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on January 8, 1998 (Note 6). The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using expected tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets as of December 31, 1998, due to the uncertainty of the realizability of those assets. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of capital lease obligations, including current portions, approximate fair value. Business Concentrations and Credit Risk Financial instruments, which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash. The Company maintains cash with only one financial institution. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of this institution. The Company has had limited sales of prototypes to a number of clients which are concentrated in the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations, generally does not require collateral, and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, historical trends and other information. There were no customers that accounted for greater than 10% of sales for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, and in addition, no customer accounted for greater than 10% of accounts receivable as of December 31, 1998. F-8 Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share The Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic net income (loss) per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding. SFAS No. 128 requires the presentation of both Basic EPS and Diluted EPS on the face of the statements of operations. Diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999, does not include the impact of stock options then outstanding, as the effect of their inclusion would be antidilutive. Stock-Based Compensation In 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," by continuing to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," ("APB No. 25") while providing the necessary pro forma disclosures as if the fair value method had been applied. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements The unaudited consolidated financial information included herein for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, these unaudited financial statements, reflect all adjustments necessary, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, for a fair presentation of such data on a basis consistent with that of the audited data presented herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year. Comprehensive Income In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The Company adopted this statement in 1998. The adoption of this statement did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Accordingly, the Company's comprehensive net loss is equal to its net loss for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999. Segment Information In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." This statement establishes standards for the way the public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. The Company adopted this statement in 1998. In the initial year of application, comparative information for earlier years must be restated. Management has determined that it does not have any separately reportable business segments. Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP 98-1"), which provides guidance for determining whether computer software is internal-use software and guidance on accounting for the proceeds of computer software originally developed or obtained for internal use and then subsequently sold to the public. It also provides guidance on capitalization of the costs incurred for computer F-9 software developed or obtained for internal use. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1998. The adoption of SOP 98-1 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards of derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. In July 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," which amends SFAS No. 133 to be effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company does not currently engage in derivative activity and does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 3. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are comprised of the following: December 31, September 30, 1998 1999 ------------ ------------ (Unaudited) Computer equipment ........................... $103,676 $206,431 Furniture and fixtures ....................... 95,443 97,778 Leasehold improvements ....................... 63,820 64,452 Office equipment ............................. 8,440 9,132 -------- -------- 271,379 377,793 Less-- Accumulated depreciation .............. 83,315 153,410 -------- -------- $188,064 $224,383 ======== ======== Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 amounted to $20,066 and $36,982, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 amounted to $16,331 and $70,095, respectively, (unaudited). 4. Accrued Expenses Accrued expenses are comprised of the following: December 31, September 30, 1998 1999 ------------ -------------- (Unaudited) Payroll .................................. $629,272 $ 16,656 Professional fees ........................ -- 122,500 Interest ................................. 82,738 3,000 Other .................................... 40,360 119,469 -------- -------- $752,370 $261,625 ======== ======== 5. Note Payable To Related Party As of December 31, 1998, the Company was indebted to the President of the Company under a note payable agreement in the amount of $98,151, which represented the principal of the note. The note bore interest at 8% and during 1998, the due date was extended to the sooner of June 1999 or the receipt of the proceeds F-10 from a stock offering through either a Private Placement or an Initial Public Offering ("IPO") that exceeds $3,000,000. Accrued interest on the note was included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets. The note payable and all accrued interest were repaid subsequent to December 31, 1998 (Note 10). 6. Convertible Secured Demand Note In January 1997, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with the New York State Science and Technology Foundation (the "Foundation") pursuant to which the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $250,000 and the Foundation agreed to invest an additional $250,000 through the purchase of 125,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock based upon the Company raising a certain amount of additional capital. The Note bore interest at 8% per annum and was converted into 125,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in January 1998. In addition, the Foundation purchased an additional 125,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for $250,000 in cash, upon the closing of a private placement of the Company's common stock in January 1998. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company's common shares on a one-for-one basis (Note 8). 7. Income Taxes No provision for U.S. federal or state income taxes has been recorded for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 (unaudited) as the Company has incurred an operating loss. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets for federal and state income taxes are as follows: December 31, September 30, 1998 1999 ------------- ------------- (unaudited) Deferred tax assets, net: Net operating loss carryforwards ........... $ 380,000 $ 880,000 Depreciation ............................... (12,000) (20,000) Other ...................................... (10,000) (16,000) Less-- Valuation allowance ................. 358,000 844,000 --------- --------- Deferred tax assets, net ............... $ -- $ -- ========= ========= Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets since management believes that it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized. No income tax benefit has been recorded for all periods presented because of the valuation allowance. As of December 31, 1998 and September 30, 1999 (unaudited), the Company had net operating loss carryforwards (NOL's) for federal income tax purposes of approximately $950,000 and $2,200,000 (unaudited), respectively. There can be no assurance that the Company will realize the benefit of the NOL's. The federal NOL's are available to offset future taxable income and expire from 2009 through 2019 if not utilized. Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, these NOL's may be limited due to ownership changes. In January 1998, as a result of the issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company's S Corporation status was terminated and the Company began operations as a C Corporation. Accordingly, the Company became subject to federal and state income taxes and the retained deficit of the Company was transferred to additional paid-in capital. If the Company operated as a C corporation since January 1997, the pro forma income tax benefit would have been approximately $642,000 (unaudited), offset by a full valuation allowance. No pro forma adjustments are required for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the nine months ended September 30, 1998 (unaudited) as the Company was operating as a C Corporation for the majority of each period and the adjustment would be immaterial. F-11 8. Stockholders' Equity Series A Convertible Preferred Stock In January 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the creation of a class of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with a par value of $.01. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into an equal number of common shares at the holder's option, subject to adjustment for anti-dilution. The holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends as and if declared by the Board of Directors. In the event of liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive all accrued dividends, if applicable, plus the liquidation price of $1.00 per share (See Note 10). Common Stock and Warrants In May 1997, the Company completed a private placement of stock and received proceeds of $630,000 for 315,000 units, which consist of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock for $3.00, expiring two years from the date of the closing. At any time following the completion of an IPO of its securities, the Company may, under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, having an effective registration statement covering the resale of the common stock underlying the warrants, redeem the warrants at a price of $.01 per warrant on not less than 20 days written notice if the last sale price of the common stock has averaged at least $4.50 per share for the 20 consecutive trading days ending at least five days prior to the date on which notice is given. of the amount raised, $75,000 represented payments from a Director of the Company for 37,500 units of the Company's private placement. In May 1997, in connection with the private placement discussed above, the Company issued warrants to the placement agent to purchase 7,500 units consisting of one share of common stock for $2.25 per share, with an attached warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock at $3.00 per share expiring in June 2000. The placement agent is entitled to piggyback registration rights with regards to the underlying common shares under the warrant agreement. The Company allocated the net proceeds from the sale of the units to the common stock and to the warrants issued. In November 1997, the Company completed an additional private placement of stock and received proceeds of $1,117,000 for 558,500 units, consisting of one share of the Company's common stock and one warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock for $3.00, under the same terms as the warrants issued in the May 1997 private placement. of this amount, $85,000 was received from certain family members of existing shareholders of the Company for 42,500 units. In connection with the second private placement, the Company's Chief Executive Officer converted indebtedness of $142,000 from the Company into a subscription of 71,000 units. The Company recorded the proceeds from both private placements that occurred during 1997, net of approximately $79,000 in issuance expenses. In 1998, the Company sold 258,000 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share for total proceeds of $516,000. The Company completed two additional private placements of common stock subsequent to December 31, 1998 (Note 9). In the opinion of management, all warrants have been issued with an exercise price that is equal or above the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant. Stock Options In order to retain and attract qualified personnel necessary for the success of the Company, the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan (the "1998 Stock Option Plan") covering up to 400,000 of the Company's common shares, pursuant to which officers, directors, key employees and consultants to the Company are eligible to receive incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers the 1998 Stock Option Plan and determines the terms and conditions of options granted, including the exercise price. The 1998 Stock Option Plan provides that all stock options will expire within ten years of the date of grant. Incentive stock options granted under the 1998 Stock Option Plan must be granted at F-12 an exercise price that is not less than the fair market value per share at the date of grant and the exercise price must not be less than 110% of the fair market value per share at the date of grant for grants to persons owning more than 10% of the voting stock of the Company. The 1998 Stock Option Plan also entitles nonemployee directors to receive grants of non-qualified stock options as approved by the Board of Directors. Pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option Plan, the Company had granted in 1997, 50,000 stock options to each of three members of the Board of Directors, of which all are exercisable at $3.00 per share and all expire within 5 years from the date of grant. One of the directors had declined to stand for re-election to the Board. In connection with this decision in 1999, the Company extended the date of expiration of the former director's stock options until August 15, 2000. The Company did not record a charge for the adjustment to the terms of the stock options, as the amount was immaterial. In August 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Stock Option Plan (Note 10). Had compensation for the 1998 and 1999 Stock Option Plans been determined consistent with the provisions of SFAS No.123, the effect on the Company's net loss and basic and diluted loss per share would have been changed to the following pro forma amounts:
Nine Months Nine Months Ended Ended Year Ended Year Ended September 30, September 30, December 31, December 31, 1998 1999 1997 1998 (unaudited) (unaudited) ------------ ------------ ------------ ----------- Net loss, as reported $(1,604,296) $(1,503,814) $(785,767) $(1,249,458) Net loss, pro forma (1,665,496) (1,537,814) (786,767) (1,345,658) Basic and diluted loss per share, as reported (0.46) (0.36) (0.19) (0.26) Basic and diluted loss per share, pro forma (0.48) (0.37) (0.19) (0.29)
Stock option activity under the 1998 and 1999 Stock Option Plans during the periods indicated is as follows:
Weighted Options Average Granted Exercise Price -------- ------------- Options outstanding at January 1, 1997 ................. -- $ -- Granted .............................................. 180,000 3.00 Canceled ............................................. -- -- ------- ----- Outstanding at December 31, 1997 ....................... 180,000 3.00 Granted .............................................. 100,000 3.00 Canceled ............................................. -- -- ------- ----- Outstanding at December 31, 1998 ....................... 280,000 3.00 Granted .............................................. 430,000 3.23 Canceled ............................................. -- -- ------- ----- Outstanding at September 30, 1999 (unaudited) .......... 710,000 $ 3.10 ======= =====
The fair market value of each option grant has been estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon expected option lives of 5 years; risk free interest rate of 5.00%; expected volatility of 0% and a dividend yield of 0%. The weighted-average remaining life of the options outstanding at December 31, 1998 and September 30, 1999 is 3.82 years and 4.66 years (unaudited), respectively, and the weighted-average fair value of the options outstanding at December 31, 1998 and September 30, 1999 is $0.34 and $0.34 (unaudited), respectively. On November 1, 1997, the Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement with a member of the Board of Directors, who is not an employee, the compensation for which was the issuance of options to F-13 purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock at $3.00 per share. The Company determined the value of the options to be immaterial under the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. In the opinion of management, all stock options have been issued with an exercise price that is equal or above the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant. 9. Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases The Company has entered into various leases for office equipment and office space expiring through October 2000. Future minimum lease payments under these lease agreements are as follows: Year ending December 31: 1999 .............................................. $ 74,280 2000 .............................................. 77,251 -------- $151,531 ======== Capital Lease Obligations The Company leases computer equipment under several capital leases expiring in 2000. The asset and liability are recorded at the lower of the present value of minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the assets. Future minimum payments under the lease agreements are as follows: Year ending December 31: 1999 ............................................. $ 8,941 2000 ............................................. 7,620 ------- Total minimum lease payments .................. 16,561 Less -- Amount representing interest ............. 1,560 ------- Present value of net minimum lease payments ... $15,001 ======= Royalty Agreements In January 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party. The agreement states that if the Company has sales exceeding $500,000 to certain customers as specified within the agreement, the Company must pay between 2 to 4% of gross revenues as a royalty to the third party. In addition, if the Company is sold to a prospective purchaser, as defined, the third party will receive a fee ranging from 4 to 5% of the purchase price. The fee will be determined based upon such purchase price. As each of the aforementioned events had not occurred, no royalties were due as of December 31, 1998. The Company settled this agreement subsequent to December 31, 1998 (Note 10). During 1997, the third party filed a lawsuit against the Company in the New York State Supreme Court in Suffolk County, claiming that the Company had breached the agreement entered into in January 1996 by failing to pay the third party certain fees and/or royalties to which the third party believes he was entitled in connection with sales of products of the Company to certain designated parties. The Company stipulated with the third party the dismissal of the action subsequent to December 31, 1998 (Note 10). The Company previously entered into an royalty agreement with the President of the Company during 1996 to license certain software. The agreement stipulated, among other provisions, that the President would receive royalties equal to a percentage of the Company's gross sales. As of December 31, 1998, no amounts have been earned under this agreement. This agreement was terminated in May 1999 and superceded by a new agreement. (Note 10). Employment Agreement On July 1, 1996, the Company entered into a one-year employment contract with its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Each party has agreed to defer the payment until such time as the Company has significant F-14 sales of its product. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company had extended the employment agreement one-month for each month of salary not paid. As of December 31, 1998, no amounts had been paid to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement was replaced with a new employment agreement in January 1999 (Note 10). Supplier Agreement In December 1996, the Company signed an exclusive supplier agreement with Hazeltine Corporation ("Hazeltine"). The agreement specifies that the Company would make total payments of $499,563 for the design and production of one hundred pre-production prototypes. In addition, Hazeltine agreed to manufacture ID-Check products, for a price determined by the terms of the agreement, for an initial term of five years from the end of the calendar year in which Hazeltine's sales of ID-Check products to the Company first achieve a rate of not less than 100,000 units per year. The Company terminated said agreement subsequent to December 31, 1998 (Note 10). 10. Subsequent Events Employment Agreements On January 1, 1999, the Company entered into three-year employment contracts with both its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and its President. Each of the agreements provides for a base salary of $225,000 and the payment of a bonus if the Company's sales exceed $2,000,000 in the previous year. The bonus will be in the amount of $50,000 plus 1% of the amount of sales in excess of $2,000,000 in each year. In addition, for each fiscal year ending during the term of the employment agreements, the Company will grant to each of the executives an option to purchase the greater of 25,000 shares of our common stock at fair market value on the date of grant or 10,000 shares of our common stock at fair market value on the date of grant for each full $250,000 by which pre-tax profits for each year exceeds pre-tax profits for the prior fiscal year. However, the Company is not required to grant options to purchase more than 150,000 shares of our common stock with respect to any one fiscal year. In July 1999, the Company entered into a two-year employment agreement with its new Chief Financial Officer, which became effective on September 7, 1999. The agreement provides for a base salary of $125,000. In addition, the Company granted the Chief Financial Officer an option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock, of which 10,000 options are immediately exercisable at $5.00 per share, 20,000 options are exercisable on September 7, 2000 at the initial public offering price and 20,000 options become exercisable at the initial public offering price when all external accounting functions, except for year-end audit, are being performed internally. Private Placements of Common Stock In January 1999, the Company completed a private placement of stock, which originally commenced in 1998. During January 1999, the Company sold 15,000 units, consisting of one share of the Company's common stock and one warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock at $3.00, expiring two years from the date of closing.

Warrants In February 1999, the Company extended the expiration dates for the warrants issued on May 26, 1997 and November 30, 1997 until June 30, 2000.

The Company did not record a charge for the issuance to the terms of the warrants, as the amount was immaterial. In the opinion of management, the exercise price of the warrant was equal or above the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of the grant. In April 1999, the Company adjusted the exercise price of a warrant to purchase common stock of the Company issued to the Foundation, in a previous common stock private placement, from $3.00 to $2.00. The adjustment was contingent upon the Foundation exercising the warrants within thirty days of the adjustment. The Company did not record a charge for the adjustment to the terms of the warrants, as the amount was immaterial as the exercise price of the warrant was equal or above the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of the adjustment. The Foundation exercised this warrant in May 1999 at the adjusted exercise price and the Company received total proceeds of $200,000. In addition, the Foundation received a new warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share expiring in May 2001.

In exchange for the plaintiff's dismissal of his claims against the Company and execution of a release of all claims against the Company, the Company has agreed to dismiss its counterclaim against the plaintiff and execute a reciprocal release for him. The settlement does not provide for any repayment from the Company to the plaintiff or from the plaintiff to the Company. In May 1999, the Company and the third party agreed to terminate the royalty agreement pursuant to a Settlement Agreement. Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company issued 10,000 shares of common stock, valued at $2.00 per share with piggyback registration rights, to the third party in exchange for the termination of F-16 the royalty agreement.

The notes have warrants attached to purchase 2,500 shares of common stock for each principal amount of $50,000, at $3.00 per share. The warrants expire in August 2002 and can be redeemed by the Company at $.01 per warrant at any time the Company's common stock has an average market price of $6.00 per share for a period of twenty consecutive trading days. The fair value of the warrants was deemed to be immaterial. The notes mature at the earlier of July 31, 2000 or the date at which the Company receives gross proceeds from a public offering of its securities of at least $6,000,000. 1999 Stock Option Plan In August 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Stock Option Plan (the "1999 Stock Option Plan") covering up to 1,000,000 of the Company's common shares, pursuant to which officers, directors, key employees and consultants to the Company are eligible to receive incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities In the past three years, the Company made the following sales of unregistered securities pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). In September 1996, we sold a total of 87,500 shares of our common stock for $175,000. Paul Cohen and Eric Cohen, the father and brother of our co-founder, Todd Cohen, purchased 62,500 shares and 15,000 shares, respectively. Gregg Messina, the brother of our co-founder, Kevin Messina, purchased 10,000 shares. In connection with the issuance, (i) each shareholder represented to the Company that, by virtue of his investment acumen, business experience or independent financial and tax advice, he had the capability of evaluating the risks and merits in investing in the shares, (ii) each shareholder represented that the shares acquired cannot be sold without registration under the Securities Act, except in reliance upon an exemption therefrom and (iii) the Company did not engage in any general solicitation or advertisement for the issuance. The shareholders further represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to the distribution thereof. Appropriate legends were affixed to the stock certificates issued in such transactions. Each shareholder had adequate access to sufficient information about the Company to make an informed investment decision. II-1 The issuance and sale of these securities were made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction not involving any public offering. In October 1996, we issued a total of 41,385 shares of our common stock to satisfy loans in the aggregate amount of $82,770. Paul Cohen, the father of our co-founder, Todd Cohen, accepted 28,885 shares in repayment of $57,770 of indebtedness and William Glasgow, who has been, since September 1996, director of corporate accounts of the Company, accepted 12,500 shares in repayment of $25,000 of indebtedness. Also in October 1996, we issued a total of 22,500 shares of our common stock in repayment of $45,000 owed to our former attorneys, Post & Heymann LLP. In connection with the issuance, (i) each shareholder represented to the Company that, by virtue of his investment acumen, business experience or independent financial and tax advice, he had the capability of evaluating the risks and merits in investing in the shares, (ii) each shareholder represented that the shares acquired cannot be sold without registration under the Securities Act, except in reliance upon an exemption therefrom and (iii) the registrant did not engage in any general solicitation or advertisement for the issuance. The shareholders further represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to the distribution thereof. Appropriate legends were affixed to the stock certificates issued in such transactions. Each shareholder had adequate access to sufficient information about the Company to make an informed investment decision. The issuance and sale of these securities were made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction not involving any public offering. In December 1996 and January 1997, Frank Mandelbaum, our chief executive officer, made loans totalling $142,000 with interest at 10% with maturity in 90 days. He subsequently extended the notes on several occasions. In November 1997, as part of the private placement discussed below, we issued to Mr. Mandelbaum 71,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 71,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share in exchange for Mr. Mandelbaum's forgiveness of his loan to us of $142,000. Mr. Mandelbaum is an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The securities issued to Mr. Mandelbaum contain a legend stating that the securities acquired cannot be sold without registration under the Securities Act, except in reliance upon an exemption therefrom. As the chief executive officer, Mr. Mandelbaum had adequate access to sufficient information about the Company to make an informed investment decision. The Company did not engage in any general solicitation or advertisement for the issuance. The issuance and sale of these securities were made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction not involving any public offering. In January 1997, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with the New York State Science and Technology Foundation pursuant to which we issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $250,000. The Foundation also agreed to invest an additional $250,000 through the purchase of 125,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock based upon our raising a certain amount of additional capital. The note bore interest at 8% per annum. In January 1998, we exercised our right to redeem the convertible promissory note held by the Foundation for 125,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock. In addition, the Foundation purchased an additional 125,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock for $250,000. In July 1999, the Foundation exercised its conversion rights and received 250,000 shares of common stock in exchange for its preferred stock. The New York State Science and Technology Foundation subscribed to 100,000 units for $200,000 in the private placement of September 1998, discussed below, which units consisted of one share of common stock and one warrant to acquire an additional share at $3.00 per share. In April 1999, we adjusted the exercise price of warrants issued to the Foundation from $3.00 to $2.00 if exercised within 30 days of the adjustment. In May 1999, the Foundation exercised such warrant and we issued 100,000 shares of our common stock and a new warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.00, which expires in May 2001.

II-2 In February 1997, we issued 12,000 shares of our common stock to Blanchfield King Kober, our former accountants, in payment of accounting fees totaling $24,000.

In connection with this offering, the Company sold 31,000 units and received proceeds of $186,000. Due to market conditions prevailing at that time for raising capital, we rescinded the offering and all the subscribers agreed to re-subscribe under the terms of the September 1998 offering. II-3 In September 1998, we commenced a private placement of 1,000,000 units at $2.00 per unit.

(2) That for determining liability under the Securities Act, it will treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offer. (3) To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the Offering. (4) To provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such denomination and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. (5) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective. (6) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Article IV Termination for Cause; Disability; Death 4.01 For Cause. Company shall have the right to terminate the employment of Employee hereunder at any time for Cause (as hereinafter defined) without prior notice (except as otherwise hereinafter provided). For purposes of this Agreement "Cause" shall mean and include the occurrence of any of the following acts or events by or relating to the Employee: (i) any material misrepresentation by Employee in this Agreement; (ii) any material breach of any obligations of Employee under this Agreement which remains uncured for more than twenty (20) days after written notice thereof by Company to Employee or if the default is such that it cannot be cured within such 20-day period, upon said breach; (iii) habitual insobriety or substance abuse of Employee while performing his duties hereunder; (iv) theft or embezzlement from Company or any other material acts of dishonesty; (v) repeated insubordination respecting reasonable orders or directions of Company's Board of Directors; (vi) conviction of a crime (other than traffic violations and minor misdemeanors) or (vii) if Employee becomes the subject of any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from, or otherwise limiting, engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation of Federal or state securities laws or Federal commodities. In the event of termination for Cause, Employee's Fixed Salary shall terminate as of the effective date of termination of employment. 4.02 Without Cause. Company may not terminate the employment of Employee, except for Cause notwithstanding Article IV; Section 4.01 of Company's by-laws. 4.03 Disability. If Employee, by reason of illness, mental or physical incapacity or other disability, is unable to perform his regular duties hereunder (as may be determined by the Board of Directors), Company shall continue to pay half of Employee's salary for the balance of the term of this Agreement, provided, however, in the event Employee recovers from any such illness, mental or physical incapacity or other disability (as may be determined by an independent physician to which Employee shall make himself available for examination at the reasonable request of the Board of Directors), Employee shall immediately resume his regular duties hereunder. Any payments to Employee under any disability insurance or plan maintained by Company shall be applied against and shall reduce the amount of the salary payable by Company under this Agreement. If at any time during the year the Employee has suffered a complete and total disability, defined as the inability to perform his/her duties from any location, then the provisions of paragraph 3.03 shall be pro-rated so as not to provide for incentive compensation for the period of complete and total disability. 4.04 Death. In the event of Employee's death, Company shall continue to pay half of the Employee's Fixed Salary for the balance of the term of this Agreement to Employee's surviving spouse, provided, however, that, if Company is the beneficiary of life insurance on Employee's life, it shall use the proceeds of such insurance promptly upon the receipt thereof to prepay (in inverse order to maturity), half of the Fixed Salary remaining to be paid discounted to present value using an assumed interest rate of 8% per annum. Company shall have the right (but not the obligation) to obtain a life insurance policy on Employee's life. The proceeds of any such life insurance policy shall be payable to Company. Employee shall cooperate with Company and Page 3 of 9 use his best efforts in all respects and regard to obtaining a life insurance policy, including, without limitation, undergoing a physical examination upon reasonable request. Article V Confidential Information; Non-Competition 5.01 Confidential Information. Employee shall not, at any time during or following termination or expiration of the term of this Agreement, directly or indirectly, disclose, publish or divulge to any person (except in the regular course of Company's business), or appropriate, use or cause, permit or induce any person to appropriate or use, any proprietary, secret or confidential information of Company including, without limitation, knowledge or information relating to its trade secrets, business methods, the names or requirements of customers or the prices, credit or other terms extended to its customers, all of which Employee agrees are and will be of great value to Company and shall at all times be kept confidential. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, Employee shall promptly deliver or return to Company all materials of a proprietary, secret or confidential nature relating to Company together with any other property of Company which may have theretofore been delivered to or may be in possession of Employee. 5.02 Non-Competition. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of two years after the sooner of the expiration date of this Agreement or the date when Employee ceases to be employed by Company as a result of either a voluntary termination of his employment or a termination for cause, Employee shall not, within the United States, its territories and/or, possessions and countries in which the Company does business, without the prior written consent of Company in each instance, directly or indirectly, in any manner or capacity, whether for himself or any other person and whether as proprietor, principal, owner, shareholder, partner, investor, director, officer, employee, representative, distributor consultant, independent contractor or otherwise engage or have any interest in any entity which is engaged in any business or activity then conducted or engaged in by Company. The two-year period referred to in the preceding sentence shall be reduced by two months for each full year that elapses after the commencement date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Employee may at any time own in the aggregate as a passive (but not active) investment not more than 5% of the stock or other equity interest of any publicly-traded entity which engages in a business competitive with Company. 5.03 Reasonableness. Employee agrees that each of the provisions of this Section 5 is reasonable and necessary for the protection of Company; that each such provision is and is intended to be divisible; that if any such provision (including any sentence, clause or part) shall be held contrary to law or invalid or unenforceable in any respect in any jurisdiction, or as to any one or more periods of time, areas of business activities, or any part thereof, the remaining provisions shall not be affected but shall remain in full force and effect as to the other and remaining parts; and that any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed, without further action on the part of the parties hereto, modified, amended and limited to the extent necessary to render the same valid and enforceable in such jurisdiction. Employee further recognizes and agrees that any violation of any of his agreements in this Section 5 would cause such damage or injury to Company as would be irreparable and the exact amount of which would be impossible to ascertain and that, for such reason, among others, Company shall be entitled, as a matter of course, to injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction restraining any further violation. Such right to injunctive relief shall be cumulative and in addition to, and not in limitation of, all other rights and remedies which Company may possess. Page 4 of 9 5.04 Survival.

By/s/ Frank Mandelbaum ------------------------------- Frank Mandelbaum, Chairman /s/ Robert Holloway ------------------------------- Robert Holloway Page 6 of 9 EXHIBIT A STOCK OPTION AGREEMEMT Intelli-Check, Inc., a New York corporation (the "Company"), as of the 25th day of October, 1999 hereby grants to Robert Holloway ("Optionee"), residing at 2142 Singing Woods Drive, Skaneateles, N.Y. 13152 in consideration of services and advice rendered by Optionee to the Company, the irrevocable right and option ("Option") to purchase all or part of an aggregate of 50,000 shares ("Shares") of the Company's common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock"), on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth: 1. Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Shares shall be at the proposed initial public offering price ("IPO") per share subject to adjustment as provided in Paragraph 5 below. 2. Term of Option: Exercise. (a) Subject to earlier termination pursuant hereto, the Option shall terminate five (5) years from the date hereof. The Option shall be exercisable as follows: 20,000 upon signing of Employment Agreement, and 5,000 for each 10,000 sales of ID-Check Products sold that exceed 10,000. (b) The Option shall be exercised by fifteen (15) days written notice to the Secretary or Treasurer of the Company at its then principal office. The notice shall specify the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price for such Shares. The option price shall be payable in United States dollars, and may be paid in cash or by certified check on a United States bank or by other means acceptable to the Company. In no event shall the Company be required to issue any Shares (i) until counsel for the Company determines that the Company has complied with all applicable securities exchange or the National Association of Security Dealers Automated Quotation System on which the Common Stock may then be listed, and (ii) unless Optionee reimburses the Company for any tax withholding required and supplies the Company with such information and data as the Company may deem necessary. (c) Optionee shall not, by virtue of the granting of the Option, be entitled to any rights of a shareholder in the Company and shall not be considered a record holder of any Shares purchased by Optionee until the date on which Optionee shall actually be recorded as the holder of such Shares upon the stock records of the Company. The Company shall not be required to issue any fractional Share upon exercise of the Option and shall not be required to pay to Optionee the cash equivalent of any fractional Share interest. 3. Restrictions on Transfer and Termination. (a) No option shall be transferred by Optionee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During the lifetime of Optionee the Option shall be exercisable only by Optionee or by Optionee's legal representative. (b) In the event of the termination of Optionee's employment by the Company at any time for any reason (excluding termination for cause, disability or death), the Option and all rights thereunder shall be exercisable by Optionee at any time within three (3) months thereafter, but not later than the termination date of the Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Optionee is permanently and totally disabled (within the meaning of Section 105(d) (4), or any successor section, of the Internal Revenue Code), Optionee's Option and all rights thereunder shall be exercisable by Optionee (or Optionee's legal representative) at any time within six (6) months of Optionee's termination of employment, but not later than the termination date of the Option. The right of the Optionee (or Optionee's legal representative) to exercise the Option or any portion of the Option, shall apply only to that portion of the Option which has accrued in accordance with Section 2(a) of this Agreement and which the Optionee is entitled to exercise as of the date of termination. (c) If Optionee shall die while in the employ of the Company, the Option may be exercised by Page 7 of 9 Optionee's designated beneficiary or beneficiaries (or if none have been effectively designated, by Optionee's executor, administrator or the person to whom Optionee's rights under the Option shall pass by Optionee's will or by the laws of descent and distribution) at any time within six (6) months after the date of Optionee's death, but not later than the termination date of the Option. The right of the Optionee's beneficiary or legal representative to exercise the Option or any portion of the Option, shall apply only to that portion of the Option which has accrued in accordance with Section 2(a) of this Agreement and which Optionee was entitled to exercise as of the date of death. (d) In the event Optionee's employment is terminated for Cause, the Option and all rights thereunder shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. on the date of termination of employment. (e) This Option is granted pursuant to an Employment Agreement between Company and Optionee dated October 25, 1999, which Employment Agreement governs Optionee's rights and obligations as an employee including, without limitation, Company's right to terminate Optionee's employment under certain circumstances, and nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Optionee any additional rights with respect to the terms and conditions of Optionee's employment. 4. Securities Act Matters. (a) Optionee represents that Shares issued upon any exercise of the Option will be acquired for Optionee's own account for investment only and not with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Federal Securities Act of 1933, as amended (hereinafter, together with the rules and regulations thereunder, collectively referred to as the "Act"), and that Optionee does not intend to divide Optionee's participation with others or transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any Shares except as below set forth. As herein used the terms "transfer" and "dispose" mean and include, without limitation, any sale, offer for sale, assignment, gift, pledge or other disposition or attempted disposition. (b) Optionee understands that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Shares must be held by Optionee for an indefinite period unless subsequently registered under the Act or unless an exemption from registration thereunder is available; that, under Rule 144 of the Act, after one or more years from the date of payment for and issuance of the shares, certain public sales thereof (which may be limited as to the number of Shares) may be made in accordance with the subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions of Rule 144, but only if certain reporting and other requirements thereunder have been complied with; and that should Rule 144 be inapplicable, registration or the availability of an exemption under the Act will be necessary in order to permit public distribution of any Shares. Optionee also understands that the Company is and will be under no obligation to register the Shares or to comply with any exemption under the Act. (c) Optionee shall not at any time transfer or dispose of any Shares except pursuant to either (i) a registration statement under the Act which registration statement has become effective as to the Shares being sold or (ii) a specific exemption from registration under the Act, but only after Optionee has first obtained either a "no-action" letter from the SEC, following full and adequate disclosure of all facts relating to such proposed transfer, or a favorable opinion from or acceptable to counsel to the Company that the proposed transfer or other disposition complies with and is not in violation of the Act or any applicable state "blue sky" or securities laws. 5. Anti-Dilution Provisions. (a) Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 5(b) below, if at any time or from time to time prior to expiration of the Option there shall occur any change in the outstanding Common Stock of the Company by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reorganization, liquidation or the like, then and as often as the same shall occur, the kind and number of Shares subject to the Option, Page 8 of 9 or the purchase price per share, or both, shall be adjusted by the Board of Directors of the Company ("Board") in such manner as it may deem appropriate and equitable, the determination of which Board shall be binding and conclusive. Failure of the Board to provide for any such adjustment shall be conclusive evidence that no adjustment is required. (b) The Board shall have the right to engage a firm of independent certified public accountants, which may be the Company's regular auditors, to make any computation provided for in this Section, and a certificate of that firm showing the required adjustment shall be conclusive and binding. 6. Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given either by (i) personal delivery or regular mail, in each case against receipt, or (ii) first class registered or certified mail, return receipt requested. Any such communication shall be deemed to have been given (i) on the date of receipt in the cases referred to in clause (i) of the preceding sentence and (ii) on the second day after the date of mailing in the cases referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. All such communications to the Company shall be addressed to it, to the attention of its Secretary or Treasurer, at its then principal office and to Optionee at the address set forth above or such other address as may be designated by like notice hereunder. 7. Miscellaneous. This Agreement cannot be changed except in writing signed by the party to be charged. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed exclusively in New York. The Option has been granted pursuant to the Company's 1999 Stock Option Plan. This Agreement is in all respects subject to the terms and conditions of said Plan. The Option granted hereunder is intended to be a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Optionee acknowledges that Optionee is not holding any other stock options granted by the Company. Optionee shall execute this Agreement and return it to the Company within thirty (30) days after the mailing or delivery by the Company of this Agreement. If Optionee shall fail to execute and return this Agreement to the Company within said thirty (30) day period, the Option shall automatically terminate.
