REDMOND, WA AND SAN FRANCISCO, CA (SEPTEMBER 21, 2000) - SAFLINK Corporation
(NASDAQ: ESAF), a leading global biometric software provider, and Jotter
Technologies Inc., a pioneer in Internet toolbars and agent technology, today
announced the signing of a definitive agreement pursuant to which SAFLINK will
acquire the Internet utility company. The transaction, which will require a
specially scheduled stockholder's meeting, will unite two award-winning software
development teams and product lines. It is also expected to significantly
enhance the upcoming launch of SAFLINK's Forget Your Password(TM) Internet
strategy and product offerings, a new initiative that will make SAFLINK the
first company to employ biometric identification to simplify and secure Internet
transactions.

Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, Jotter stockholders will receive
10.6 million shares of SAFLINK common stock, $.01 par value, in exchange for all
of Jotter's equity securities outstanding on a fully diluted basis. Home
Shopping Network, Inc. and RMS Limited Partnership have agreed to convert their
SAFLINK Series A and Series D preferred shares into common and will vote in
favor of the acquisition. Following conversion of the outstanding preferred
stock and prior to completion of the transaction, HSN and RMS will own
approximately 56% of SAFLINK's issued and outstanding common stock. Holders of a
majority of the outstanding stock of Jotter have also agreed to vote in favor of
the transaction. The completion of the transaction is subject to customary
conditions and approval by the shareholders of both companies.

"The combination of the two companies and their innovative technologies creates
an entirely new category of Internet utility that will make accessing and
sharing information with protected web destinations more convenient and secure,"
said Jeffrey P. Anthony, Chairman and CEO of SAFLINK Corporation. "The
integration effort has already begun and we believe that our new `convenience,
security and privacy' tools will be favorably received when they hit the
Internet mainstream later this year."

Glenn Argenbright, CEO of Jotter.com, stated "The areas of expertise of these
two companies create an extraordinary synergy. The Web convenience and wallet
functions offered by Jotter, combined with the biometric security and privacy
offered by SAFLINK, made for a perfect match. We are very excited to share and
enhance SAFLINK's leading edge mission to bring biometrics to the Internet. Both
businesses and consumers will benefit from this combination in a way that no
other company to date has been able to provide."
