Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 1, 2007, we entered into a Notes Conversion Agreement with Richard P. Kiphart, a member of our board of directors, to convert the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under both of Mr. Kiphart’s promissory notes with us and to waive his rights under the promissory notes, provided that (i) the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the promissory notes is converted into shares of our common stock at a per share conversion price equal to $0.0415, and (ii) we covenant not to declare a dividend payable to holders of shares of our common stock until after the promissory notes have been converted into shares of our common stock. In exchange, Mr. Kiphart agreed to forbear from exercising his rights as a creditor under the promissory notes and applicable law prior to the closing of our proposed merger with IdentiPHI, Inc.

Mr. Kiphart currently holds two promissory notes with us. In connection with our merger transaction with SSP Solutions, Inc. in 2004, we assumed a promissory note in the principal amount of $1,250,000, issued in 2003 by SSP Solutions in favor of Mr. Kiphart. The outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the 2003 promissory note we assumed in connection with the SSP Solutions merger was due and payable on December 31, 2006, and is in default. On January 24, 2007, we borrowed an additional $400,000 from Mr. Kiphart and issued him a promissory note. This note is due and payable in four equal quarterly installments beginning January 1, 2008, with accrued interest payable with each installment of principal. The aggregate outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest related to Mr. Kiphart’s notes was approximately $1.8 million, as of October 31, 2007. The number of shares we would be required to issue to Mr. Kiphart upon conversion of his promissory notes would exceed the total number of our authorized shares of common stock, so we must obtain stockholder approval of an increase to the number of shares of our common stock authorized before we can effect this conversion.
