PRECISE BIOMETRICS RECEIVES SUPPLEMENTARY HARDWARE ORDER FOR NATIONAL ID CARD PROJECT IN PORTUGAL

This spring Precise Biometrics won the procurement for a biometric
solution for the Portuguese ID card, and now a follow-up order linked
to the project has been received from its partner Zetes Burótica.
1,400 units of Precise Biometrics' fingerprint reader Precise 250 MC
will be delivered by the end of the year.

The order involves Precise 250 MC, a combined fingerprint and smart
card reader, and will be used amongst other during the activation
card process, when the Portuguese citizens collect their new Citizen
Card verifying their ownership of the card. Delivery is planned
before the end of the year.

Precise Biometrics is working together with its partner Zetes
Burótica, which distributes and integrates hardware, and is also a
key supplier of various components and services (amongst other the
Middleware) of Portugal's national ID card program.

The reason why Zetes Burótica chose Precise Biometrics' fingerprint
reader is understandable according to Pascal Fevry, General Manager,
of Zetes Burótica.
 In his own words: "Precise Biometrics is a well known supplier of
Match-on-Card solutions and has previous experience from the
Portuguese Citizen Card project. But above all they could offer a
fingerprint reader that supports Mach-on-Card at an attractive price
level in combination with exellent performance."

Precise Biometrics has previously communicated that it believes in a
large aftermarket for the Portuguese ID card, which has been
confirmed by this new order. Precise Biometrics' President and CEO,
Thomas Marschall, sees the follow-up order as a positive signal."This is the first follow-up order from Portugal, and of course it
means a lot to us. It's also a confirmation that our cooperation with
Zeter Burótica is working really well. Zetes Burótica has a very
large network in the region and we hope that our joint efforts will
generate further business opportunities," says Thomas Marschall.

The new Portuguese ID card contains biometric information and
replaces five previous cards:  the health care card, voter's card,
tax payer's card, the social security card, and the traditional ID
card. The roll-out of the new Citizen Card started during spring this
year and over a seven-year period 14 million cards with fingerprint
information will be rolled out to the Portuguese citizens. Apart from
the Portuguese national ID card, Precise Biometrics has also won ID
card projects in Asia and the Middle East. There is expectation of a
valuable aftermarket in each individual case.
