Item 1.01.   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 10, 2008, we agreed with Key Ovation, LLC to terminate our respective rights and obligations under the secured promissory note we issued to Zaychan Pty Limited on March 12, 2008 (the “Old Note). Zaychan Pty Limited assigned the Old Note to Key Ovation on June 30, 2008. In connection with the termination of the Old Note, we issued to Key Ovation a new 8% convertible secured promissory note with an aggregate principal amount of $2.2 million, due October 31, 2009 (the “New Note”), to evidence the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest related to the Old Note. The New Note bears interest at 8% per annum and is convertible into shares of our common stock at $0.18 per share at Key Ovation’s option throughout the term of the note. Our obligations under the New Note continue to be secured by all of our assets. In connection with the issuance of the New Note, we amended certain terms of Key Ovation’s outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 420,934 shares of our common stock, which were issued in connection with the Old Note. The amendments reduced the per share exercise price from $0.80 to $0.18 and added warrant cancellation and prepayment provisions such that if we prepay $400,000 in principal under the New Note to Key Ovation (i) on or before January 31, 2009, the warrants will automatically be cancelled; or (ii) after January 31, 2009 but on or before April 30, 2009, the aggregate number of shares issuable upon full exercise of the warrants will be automatically reduced by 50%. Copies of the termination agreement, the New Note and the warrant amendment are filed with this current report as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively.

Also on November 10, 2008, we entered into a credit line facility with Key Ovation pursuant to which Key Ovation agreed to make available to us a committed line of credit of up to $1.0 million. Under the line of credit, we may draw down from time to time advances up to an aggregate $1.0 million at our sole discretion. The line of credit facility terminates on October 31, 2009, and aggregate advances may not exceed $100,000 during any one calendar month period. Key Ovation may suspend its obligations to make any further advances after January 31, 2009, if we have not completed an equity and/or debt financing for aggregate gross proceeds of at least $1.7 million. Upon our receipt of each advance, we agreed to issue to Key Ovation a warrant to purchase a number of shares of our common stock equal to 50% of the principal amount of such advance divided by 0.18, with each warrant having an exercise price of $0.18 per share. Each advance will be evidenced by a convertible promissory note due twelve months from the date of issuance and will bear interest at 8% per annum. The principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding at any time under each promissory note will be convertible into shares of our common stock at $0.18 per share at Key Ovation’s option. Copies of the line of credit agreement and form of promissory note are filed with this current report as Exhibits 10.4 and 10.5, respectively.

Chris Linegar, a beneficial owner of more than 10% of our common stock, is the principal member of Key Ovation. Peter A. Gilbert, our Vice Chairman and Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, and Mark A. Norwalk, our Chief Technology Officer, are also members of Key Ovation.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On November 10, 2008, we issued a press release which included a letter to our shareholders that outlines some of the challenges we are facing and details some of our plans for the future. A copy of the press relese, including the shareholder letter, is furnished with this current report as Exhibit 99.1.

Please refer to the press release for a discussion of certain forward-looking statements. The press release and shareholder letter contain information about our management’s view of our future expectations, plans and prospects that constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from historical results or those indicated by these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors. These factors include, but are not

limited to, risks and uncertainties associated with our financial condition, our ability to sell our products, our ability to compete with competitors and the growth of the security market and the successful delivery and adoption of our biometric products in the marketplace. In addition, we need to seek additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities or other sources of financing during 2008 and we do not have any arrangements or agreements in place for any such financing. If we are unable to obtain necessary additional financing, our ability to run our business will be adversely affected and we may be required to reduce the scope of our research and business activity or cease our operations. Even if we are successful in obtaining additional financing, if we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations, we will need to seek additional funds through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities or other sources of financing. We may not be able to secure such additional financing on favorable terms, or at all. Any additional financings will likely cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders. If we are unable to obtain necessary additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, or cease, our operations. Further, we will need to increase our revenues to be able to achieve and then maintain profitability and we cannot predict when, or if, we will become profitable in the future. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain it. Additional factors are included in our annual report on Form 10-K, as well as other documents we periodically file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PROMISSORY NOTE


(b) Mechanics and Effects of Conversion.

(i) Before Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section C.3(a), it shall surrender this Note at the office of the Company and shall give written notice by mail, postage prepaid, to the Company at its principal executive office, of the election to convert the same pursuant to Section C.3(a), and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for Conversion Shares are to be issued. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of this Note, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Conversion Shares upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Conversion Shares as of such date.

(ii) As soon as reasonably practicable after conversion of this Note, and upon surrender of this Note, the Company will deliver or cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the number of Conversion Shares to which Holder shall be entitled on such conversion. No fractional shares will be issued on conversion of this Note, and in lieu thereof the number of Conversion Shares issuable to Holder upon such conversion shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Upon full conversion of this Note and the issuance of the certificate(s) as contemplated herein, the Company shall be forever released from all its Obligations and liabilities under this Note.

(c) Notice Regarding Change of Control Event. At least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the anticipated closing of a Change of Control Event (or, if such notice is impracticable thirty (30) calendar days prior to such Change of Control Event, as many days before the Change of Control Event as is practicable), written notice shall be delivered to the Holder of this Note pursuant to Section E.5 below notifying Holder of the terms and conditions of the Change of Control Event, the amount of the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest under this Note, the anticipated date on which any such Change of Control Event will occur and calling upon such Holder to inform the Company whether Holder intends to elect to convert the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest into Conversion Shares. Following notice of the Change of Control Event, any conversion of this Note by Holder may be made contingent upon the consummation of such Change of Control Event, if so elected by Holder in the notice of conversion.

(d) No Rights as Stockholder. Prior to its conversion, this Note shall not entitle Holder to any voting rights or to any other rights as a stockholder of the Company or to any other rights whatsoever except the rights stated herein or in the agreements referenced herein.

(e) Withholding Obligations; Form 1099. Holder authorizes the Company to withhold from Holder, or to demand cash payment from Holder for, any taxes required to be withheld from Holder on the conversion of this Note, or, to reduce or eliminate such withholding, to provide the Company with an fully executed and completed IRS Form W-9. Holder acknowledges that the Company may issue Holder a Form 1099, reporting the interest, to the Internal Revenue Service (even if the interest is converted into stock), in accordance with law.

(f) Conversion Price Adjustments. In the event the Company should at any time while this Note is outstanding fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock, then, as of such record date, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding shares of Common Stock.

PROMISSORY NOTE


4. Covenants as to Conversion Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that all Conversion Shares issued pursuant to the terms of this Note (the “Reserved Shares”) will, upon their issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of the Reserved Shares to provide for the conversion rights represented by this Note. If at any time while this Note remains outstanding the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit the conversion of this Note, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.

5. Consolidation or Merger of the Company. If the Company is a party to (a) any consolidation, merger or share exchange with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, (b) any consolidation or merger of another entity into the Company in which the Company is the survivor but, in connection therewith, the Company’s equity securities are changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other entity, or (c) any capital reorganization or reclassification of its Common Stock (in each such case excluding any merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company), pursuant to any of which transactions the holders of the Company’s capital stock are entitled to receive with respect to or in exchange for such capital stock, stock or other securities, whether alone or together with any other consideration (such consideration being the “Allowed Consideration”), then as a condition of such transaction, lawful and adequate provisions reasonably acceptable to Holder shall be made whereby Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of Conversion Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of this Note) such Allowed Consideration as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of such Conversion Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of this Note. In any such case, appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Conversion Price and the number of shares receivable upon the conversion of this Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be reasonably practicable (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors, whose judgment shall be final and binding on Holder), in relation to the Allowed Consideration thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation or merger, unless, in connection with the consummation thereof, the successor corporation resulting from such consolidation or merger shall assume by written instrument the obligation to deliver to such Holder such Allowed Consideration as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase.

6. No Impairment. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by Holder in writing, the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company.

D. Default.

1. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note:

(a) Failure to Pay. The Company shall fail to pay when due any principal, any interest or other payment required under the terms of this Note on the date due and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of ten (10) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of written notice from Holder of such failure to pay.

(b) Breach of this Note. Except in the case of Section D.1(a) above, the Company shall be in material breach or default under any of the terms of this Note, and such breach or default shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of written notice from Holder specifying such breach or default.

(c) Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings.

(i) The Company shall (A) appoint, apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar judicial officer or agent to take possession, custody, control or charge of or liquidate any of its property or assets, (B) commence any voluntary proceeding under any provision of Title 11 of the United States Code, as now or hereafter amended, or commence any other proceeding, under any law, now or hereafter in force, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, or otherwise to the relief of debtors or the readjustment of indebtedness, or (C) make any assignment for the benefit of creditors or a composition or similar arrangement with such creditors;

(ii) The commencement against the Company of any involuntary proceeding, or the consent by Company to any proceeding, of the kind described in Section D.1(c)(i) and such proceeding shall not have been dismissed within thirty (30) days;

(iii) The Company is adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent or a petition for reorganization is granted; or

(iv) The Company shall cause, or institute any proceeding for, or there shall occur, the dissolution of the Company.

(d) Change of Control Event. Without the prior written consent of Holder, the Company shall consummate a Change of Control Event and in connection therewith the Company changes its Senior Executive Officers such that the Senior Executive Officers serving immediately prior to such Change of Control Event no longer serve as the Company’s Senior Executive Officers immediately following such Change of Control Event.

2. Rights of Holders Upon Default. If any Event of Default shall occur for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary, and be continuing, then Holder may, by written notice to the Company, declare all or any portion of the Obligations to be due and payable, whereupon the full outstanding principal and interest hereunder shall be so declared due and payable shall be and become immediately due and payable, without further notice, demand or presentment, all of which are expressly waived by the Company.

E. Other Provisions.

1. Waivers and Amendments. This Note may not be amended or modified, nor may any of its terms be waived, except by a written instrument signed by Holder and the Company.

2. Severability. If any provision of this Note is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, the validity, legality and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions or portions of this Note shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and this Note shall nevertheless be binding between the Company and Holder.

EX-10.4 5 dex104.htm LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT, DATED NOVEMBER 11, 2008 Line of Credit Agreement, dated November 11, 2008

Exhibit 10.4

LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT

This Line of Credit Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of November 10, 2008, is entered into by and between Key Ovation, LLC (“Lender”), and IdentiPHI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Lender has agreed to lend to Borrower up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and Borrower has agreed to borrow up to the amount of such funds on the terms set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. LINE OF CREDIT.

1.1 Credit Line. Upon execution of this Agreement and subject to the terms hereof, Lender agrees to make available to Borrower a committed line of credit equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Credit Line”).

1.2 Advances.Advances” shall mean funds advanced to Borrower by Lender under the Credit Line. The aggregate amount of the Advances shall not exceed the Credit Line, and each Advance shall be at Borrower’s sole discretion; provided, however, that aggregate Advances may not exceed $100,000 during any one calendar month period. Each Advance shall be made by Lender within ten (10) Business Days (as defined in the Notes) of receipt of an executed draw down request from Borrower in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (a “Draw Down Request”).

1.3 Issuance of Notes. All Advances made from time to time shall be evidenced by promissory notes in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (each, a “Note” and, together, the “Notes”) and shall be repaid in accordance with the terms thereof.

1.4 Interest. Interest shall accrue with respect to the principal amount of each Advance from the date of such Advance until such principal is fully paid or converted, at eight percent (8.0%) simple interest per annum (computed on the basis of a 365- day year, based upon the actual days elapsed).

1.5 Payment. All unpaid principal of each Note, together with the balance of accrued but unpaid interest and other amounts payable under each Note, shall be due and payable on demand at any time upon and after the earlier of (a) the one year anniversary of the issuance of such Note, or (b) the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes). All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the principal office of Borrower, or at such other place as Lender may from time to time designate in writing to Borrower. Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the Notes at any time in accordance with the provisions of the Notes.

1.6 Optional Conversion. Lender shall have the right, at Lender’s option, at any time prior to payment in full of the principal balance of each Note, to convert the unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest under such Note, in whole or in part, into shares of Borrower’s common stock (the “Conversion Shares”). The number of Conversion Shares to be issued upon such conversion shall be equal to the number obtained by dividing (i) the total amount of unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest being converted under the subject Note on the date of conversion by (ii) $0.18.

1.7 Failure to Make an Advance. Lender’s failure to make an Advance within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of an Executed Draw Request shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.

1.8 Warrants. Upon Borrower’s receipt of each Advance, Borrower shall issue to Lender a common stock purchase warrant, in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto (each, a “Warrant” and, together, the “Warrants”), which Warrant shall entitle Lender to purchase a number of shares of Borrower’s common stock equal to 50% of the principal amount of such Advance divided by 0.18, at an exercise price of $0.18 per share.

1.9 Cancellation of Credit Line. Borrower may cancel all or any portion of the unborrowed amounts of the Credit Line by delivery to Lender of a Notice of Cancellation in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto. In addition, any prepayment by Borrower, or any conversion by Lender, of any amount due under a Note shall automatically constitute a cancellation of the amount prepaid or converted and of such prepaid or converted Note.

1.10 Qualifying Financing. Lender, at its option, may suspend its obligations to make any further Advances after January 31, 2009, if Borrower has not, after the date hereof, completed an equity and/or debt financing (or series of financings) for aggregate gross proceeds to Borrower of at least $1.7 million (a “Qualifying Financing”) by delivery of written notice of such suspension to Borrower at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of such suspension. In the event Lender suspends its obligations to make further Advances pursuant to this Section 1.10, Lender’s obligations to make further Advances shall be automatically resumed upon the completion of a Qualifying Financing by Borrower after January 31, 2009.

2. ACCELERATION. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing: (a) Lender’s obligations to make any Advances shall be suspended; and (b) Lender, at its option, may, by notice to Borrower, declare the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable pursuant thereto to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon all unpaid principal of the Notes, all such accrued interest and all such other amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

3. TERMINATION.

3.1 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on October 31, 2009 (the “Termination Date”), unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 3.2. In the event of termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Lender or Borrower or their respective officers, directors, stockholders, members, managers or affiliates; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 3.1 and Section 4 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement.

3.2 Termination by Mutual Consent. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Termination Date by the mutual written consent of Lender and Borrower.

PROMISSORY NOTE


(b) Mechanics and Effects of Conversion.

(i) Before Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section C.3(a), it shall surrender this Note at the office of the Company and shall give written notice by mail, postage prepaid, to the Company at its principal executive office, of the election to convert the same pursuant to Section C.3(a), and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for Conversion Shares are to be issued. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of this Note, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Conversion Shares upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Conversion Shares as of such date.

(ii) As soon as reasonably practicable after conversion of this Note, and upon surrender of this Note, the Company will deliver or cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the number of Conversion Shares to which Holder shall be entitled on such conversion. No fractional shares will be issued on conversion of this Note, and in lieu thereof the number of Conversion Shares issuable to Holder upon such conversion shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Upon full conversion of this Note and the issuance of the certificate(s) as contemplated herein, the Company shall be forever released from all its Obligations and liabilities under this Note.

(c) Notice Regarding Change of Control Event. At least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the anticipated closing of a Change of Control Event (or, if such notice is impracticable thirty (30) calendar days prior to such Change of Control Event, as many days before the Change of Control Event as is practicable), written notice shall be delivered to the Holder of this Note pursuant to Section E.5 below notifying Holder of the terms and conditions of the Change of Control Event, the amount of the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest under this Note, the anticipated date on which any such Change of Control Event will occur and calling upon such Holder to inform the Company whether Holder intends to elect to convert the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest into Conversion Shares. Following notice of the Change of Control Event, any conversion of this Note by Holder may be made contingent upon the consummation of such Change of Control Event, if so elected by Holder in the notice of conversion.

(d) No Rights as Stockholder. Prior to its conversion, this Note shall not entitle Holder to any voting rights or to any other rights as a stockholder of the Company or to any other rights whatsoever except the rights stated herein or in the agreements referenced herein.

(e) Withholding Obligations; Form 1099. Holder authorizes the Company to withhold from Holder, or to demand cash payment from Holder for, any taxes required to be withheld from Holder on the conversion of this Note, or, to reduce or eliminate such withholding, to provide the Company with a fully executed and completed IRS Form W-9. Holder acknowledges that the Company may issue Holder a Form 1099, reporting the interest, to the Internal Revenue Service (even if the interest is converted into stock), in accordance with law.

(f) Conversion Price Adjustments. In the event the Company should at any time while this Note is outstanding fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock, then, as of such record date, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding shares of Common Stock.

4. Covenants as to Conversion Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that all Conversion Shares issued pursuant to the terms of this Note (the “Reserved Shares”) will, upon their issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of the Reserved Shares to provide for the conversion rights represented by this Note. If at any time while this Note remains outstanding the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit the conversion of this Note, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.

5. Consolidation or Merger of the Company. If the Company is a party to (a) any consolidation, merger or share exchange with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, (b) any consolidation or merger of another entity into the Company in which the Company is the survivor but, in connection therewith, the Company’s equity securities are changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other entity, or (c) any capital reorganization or reclassification of its Common Stock (in each such case excluding any merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company), pursuant to any of which transactions the holders of the Company’s capital stock are entitled to receive with respect to or in exchange for such capital stock, stock or other securities, whether alone or together with any other consideration (such consideration being the “Allowed Consideration”), then as a condition of such transaction, lawful and adequate provisions reasonably acceptable to Holder shall be made whereby Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of Conversion Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of this Note) such Allowed Consideration as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of such Conversion Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of this Note. In any such case, appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Conversion Price and the number of shares receivable upon the conversion of this Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be reasonably practicable (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors, whose judgment shall be final and binding on Holder), in relation to the Allowed Consideration thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation or merger, unless, in connection with the consummation thereof, the successor corporation resulting from such consolidation or merger shall assume by written instrument the obligation to deliver to such Holder such Allowed Consideration as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase.

6. No Impairment. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by Holder in writing, the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company.

This release contains information about our management’s view of our future expectations, plans and prospects that constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from historical results or those indicated by these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties associated with our financial condition, our ability to sell our products, our ability to compete with competitors and the growth of the security market and the successful delivery and adoption of our biometric products in the marketplace. In addition, we need to seek additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities or other sources of financing during 2008 and we do not have any arrangements or agreements in place for any such financing. If we are unable to obtain necessary additional financing, our ability to run our business will be adversely affected and we may be required to reduce the scope of our research and business activity or cease our operations. Even if we are successful in obtaining additional financing, if we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations, we will need to seek additional funds through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities or other sources of financing. We may not be able to secure such additional financing on favorable terms, or at all. Any additional financings will likely cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders. If we are unable to obtain necessary additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, or cease, our operations. Further, we will need to increase our revenues to be able to achieve and then maintain profitability and we cannot predict when, or if, we will become profitable in the future. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain it. Additional factors are included in our annual report on Form 10-K, as well as other documents we periodically file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholder,

I have now been CEO and Chairman of IdentiPHI, Inc. for the last three months, which, as you all know, has been a period of global economic crisis and volatile market conditions. The purpose of this letter is to introduce myself to you, tell you why I joined IdentiPHI, update you on where we are today and, lastly, share my ambitions and plans for the company.

Having been in the biometric industry for the last eight years and in the information technology market since 1984, I guess you can say that I am a seasoned industry veteran. During this time I have served as Managing Director, Country Manager, CEO and Chairman for both public and private companies. While in these positions, I have been aware of and worked with Saflink since 2000 and IdentiPHI since 2005. When I was approached earlier this year to serve as a member of the Board of Directors of the newly merged IdentiPHI, I did not hesitate – in fact I was thrilled. I have always seen SAFsolution – our cornerstone product – as a solid foundation for enterprise-wide authentication, while IdentiPHI had been focused on building distribution channels, partnerships and selling security solutions. I saw the merger as a combination of the best of both worlds and when I was approached to increase my role with the company by serving as CEO and Chairman, again I was thrilled to accept the offer. By adding my experience and familiarity with the authentication industry to the equation, I believe we can complete the transition of IdentiPHI into a leading enterprise authentication software provider.

We achieved the majority of our revenue during the first part of 2008 through reselling third party security products via our established OEM channel. This business has a relatively lower margin and we do not feel that it should be our principal focus in the long run. Earlier this year, we released the refreshed and completely rewritten SAFsolution, based on key features driven by the


market and our customers. Our ambition now is to focus on marketing our SAFsolution product suite to enterprises and organizations via a network of worldwide partners, while gradually expanding our OEM channel business. We have focused the organization and now have cash operating expense levels down to approximately $400,000 per month and our plan is to steadily increase the sales of SAFsolution from a historical average of $50,000 per month up to $400,000 per month by the middle of next year. We believe this focus and revenue ramp could turn us into a profitable company with the ability to grow. We also envision that these types of results could lead to a more active shareholder base and increase the trading volume in our common stock thereby facilitating a more reliable and representative value of the company. By achieving these results, we feel we can increase our market capitalization which could further fuel our ability to expand through technological advancement, international growth or strategic relationships.

During the last couple of months, we have reached out to the investor community in an effort to secure necessary additional financing to run our business and facilitate our efforts to achieve and maintain profitability. With the turbulent market conditions and global economic worries, there is the risk that we may be unable to raise sufficient additional capital, but I still believe we will be successful in our efforts to complete this mission.

I remain very optimistic about our company and our business. Some of the reasons for my optimism include:

 

   

Our solid and well-respected SAFsolution product suite, with high gross margin and backed by strong intellectual property;

 

   

Increasing market demand for strong authentication and solutions to create electronic audit trails;

 

   

An installed base of SAFsolution customers that include well-known Fortune 500 accounts;

 

   

Our experienced and well-connected management team, which has demonstrated its ability to close on business opportunities; and

 

   

Performance-based equity incentives for certain members of our management team that are achieved when the market capitalization of our outstanding common stock reaches $50 million and $75 million, which we are working extremely hard to reach.

Lastly, an important part of leading a public company is communication and interaction with our shareholders. With this letter, I am reaching out and inviting you to be part of our journey towards profitability and success – with a solid and satisfied customer base, the best partners in the industry and in the end happy shareholders. In conjunction with the issuance of our third quarter report, we are holding two round table discussions to go over our results and plans for the future with shareholders; one in Chicago on Thursday November 13 and one in Boston on Friday, November 14, both beginning at 12:30 p.m. local time. Please RSVP to investors@identiphi.net to secure a spot for either of these events.

 

Sincerely yours,
