        2.1     License Terms.

                (a)     LICENSE GRANT. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, DTC hereby licenses to Licensee, subject to the reservation by
DTC of its ownership of all Intellectual Property Rights, a personal,
fee-bearing, royalty-bearing license (i) to use the Card Manufacturing
Technology solely to make and manufacture (and not have made or manufactured) at
the Licensee Facilities OMCs that meet the Quality Standards; (ii) to market,
offer for sale, sell, and distribute the OMCs (x) on a non-exclusive basis in

to vote for the election of directors).

                (b)     CONDITIONS FOR EXCLUSIVITY.

                (A)     Licensee's exclusive rights in the Exclusive Territory
as provided in Section 2.1(a)(ii)(y) above shall last (i) in Group 1 Countries,
for a term of five (5) years from the Effective Date unless further extended as
provided for in Attachment A, unless this Agreement is earlier terminated, and
(ii) in Group 2 Countries, for successive 12 months periods from the Effective
Date during the term of this Agreement, so long as Licensee meets the
performance requirements set forth in Attachment A during the preceding 12
months. In addition, DTC may revoke Licensee's exclusive status in Group 2 (but
not Group 1) of the Exclusive Territory if the government(s) of the applicable
country/ies is/are not satisfied with the performance and quality of the OMCs
supplied by Licensee, or a competitive bid is requested by the government(s) of
the applicable country/ies, or is required by the applicable law of such
country/ies, in which case Licensee's license shall be non-exclusive as to such
country/ies.

                (B)     It is understood and agreed between the parties hereto
that DTC and its Subsidiaries, including LSC, have and shall continue to have
the right to make OMCs in the Territory and to sell OMCs and related products
and services directly to those end-user customers and value added reseller
("VARs") customers they have a relationship with as of the Effective Date in an
Exclusive Territory and to any end-user customers or VARs in the Non-Exclusive
Territory. Similarly, any card distribution licensee or VAR of DTC and its
Subsidiaries as of the Effective Date shall have the right to sell OMCs to
customers located in any country throughout the world where they have the right
to sell as of the Effective Date, including the Exclusive Territory. That is,
the exclusivity of Licensee is subject to prior-granted rights and customer
relationships. However, so long as Licensee has satisfied the conditions to
retain exclusivity in Group 1 and Group 2 countries, DTC agrees and shall cause
LSC to agree during the exclusivity period, not to (a) prohibit VARs in Group 1
and Group 2 countries from purchasing OMCs from Licensee, (b) sell any OMCs
directly in the Exclusive Territory to any customer with whom it does not have a
relationship as of the Effective Date, (c) grant any license to any third party
to use the Media Production Technology for the manufacture of OMCs in Slovenia,
or, without offering Licensee such right first, in the Group 1, Group 2, or
Group 3 countries, (d) grant rights or licenses to any additional card
distribution licensees or VARs to sell OMCs in the Exclusive Territory, or (e)
form a partnership, joint venture or any other entity to manufacture OMCs in
Slovenia or to sell OMCs in the Exclusive Territory. As to the subsection (c)
right of first offer, should DTC wish to grant a third party such a license, DTC
shall first offer, in writing, such a license to Licensee. Should Licensee not
accept such offer within fifteen (15) days, then DTC may grant such a license to
a third party during the next six months on terms no less favorable than those
DTC offered to Licensee. There is no restriction on DTCs grant of any license to
any third party to use the Card Assembly Technology for the manufacture of OMC's
anywhere in the world (such OMC's could not be sold in the Exclusive Territories

                                       4
<PAGE>

so long as Licensee has satisfied the conditions to retain exclusivity in Group
1 and Group 2 countries).

                (c)     LICENSE RESTRICTIONS.

                        (i)     The license and rights granted under this
Section 2 are not sublicensable without DTC's prior written agreement except
that DTC hereby consents to the sublicense of exclusive sales rights of OMCs in
Group 2 Countries upon notice to DTC, provided that such sublicense is subject
to termination by DTC if and when the exclusivity period terminates.

                        (ii)    The license granted under this Section 2 does
not include any rights or know-how to produce glass master photomasks to make
OMCs and Licensee agrees not to (1) procure photomasks other than from DTC, (2)
duplicate photomasks it procures from DTC, or (3) reverse engineer photomasks
supplied by DTC or to otherwise learn how to format a photomask so that it can
be used to make OMCs compatible with OMC Drives.

                        (iii)   The license granted under Section 2.1(a) shall
apply only to DELA format, and derivatives thereof, OMCs manufactured by
Licensee that function with DELA OMC Read/Write Drives sold by DTC or any DTC
authorized third-party source of DELA OMC Read/Write Drives.

                        (iv)    This Agreement does not grant any rights or
licenses to any OMC Drive, any Intellectual Property Rights contained in any OMC
Drive, any processes for the manufacture of any OMC Drive, or to any software
incorporated into any OMC Drive, including logical data formatting processes.

                        (v)     Licensee shall mark all OMCs with proper notice
of patent marking under 35 U.S.C. Section 287.

        2.2     OWNERSHIP. DTC owns all rights, title and interest in and to the
Card Manufacturing Technology, subject to the limited license granted to
Licensee pursuant to Section 2.1(a) above. All rights not expressly granted to
Licensee under Section 2.1(a) are reserved by DTC.

        2.3     IMPROVEMENTS BY LICENSEE. To the extent Licensee develops,
conceives or reduces to practice modifications, design changes, enhancements or
improvements to the Card Manufacturing Technology as part of its authorized use
of the Card Manufacturing Technology hereunder ("Licensee Improvements"), then
Licensee shall promptly disclose to DTC each such Licensee Improvement. Licensee
shall own all right, title and interest in and to such Licensee Improvement,
subject to DTC's underlying rights in the Card Manufacturing Technology and
subject to the license back to such improvements granted to DTC pursuant to this
Section. Licensee will, and hereby does grant to DTC, a non-exclusive,
royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, transferable and sublicensable
license to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, distribute, transfer,
sublicense and import products and services incorporating or embodying such
Licensee Improvement, and to reproduce, modify, create derivative works of,
distribute, sublicense, transfer and otherwise exploit the Licensee Improvement,
including the right to sublicense any of the foregoing rights.

                                       5
<PAGE>

        2.4     NO RIGHT TO USE DTC'S MARKS. Licensee agrees not to use, without
DTC's prior written approval, as part of its product name(s), company name(s),
trade name(s), service mark(s), or trademark(s), any of the trademarks or trade
names owned by, or licensed to, DTC or any of its Subsidiaries, including,
without limitation: LaserCard, LaserCard Systems, LSC, Drexler, Drexler
Technology, DTC, Drexon, or any derivatives thereof. Licensee shall be able to
use the designation "A LaserCard(R) licensee partner"; however Licensee shall
not thereby acquire any company name, trade name, trademark or service mark
rights to such designation or to "LaserCard", all such use inuring to the
benefit of DTC. Should Licensee desire to use a trade name which includes the
words "Laser Optical Card", DTC agrees to permit Licensee to do so at no
additional charge pursuant to a trade name license agreement which protects
DTC's interest in the LaserCard trademark and trade name.

        2.5     CHANGE OF CONTROL. In the event that a third party company
acquires control of DTC or LSC, then the acquiring third party company
(including any successor entity to DTC and/or LSC) shall be bound by and subject
to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event of any such
acquisition or negotiations in respect thereof, at the acquiring third party's
request, Licensee will confer with such acquiring third party about any of its
concerns and Licensee's concerns regarding this Agreement.

Agreement. Any royalty report or payment for which examination of records by
such independent certified public accountant is not requested by DTC within
three (3) years after the receipt by DTC of the report, shall be deemed

reimburse DTC for the accountant's fees and expenses.

5.      FEES TO THIRD PARTIES

The license fees and royalties payable under this Agreement do not include any

6.      DTC'S RIGHT TO PURCHASE FINISHED CARDS

During the term of this Agreement, DTC shall have the right to purchase OMCs
manufactured and/or sold by Licensee, to the extent that Licensee has excess

be so utilized by DTC, and (ii) DTC shall be willing to work, at Licensee's
request, on off-shifts or weekends to limit impact on Licensee's ongoing
business. Such use by DTC of the Equipment and Licensee Facility shall be
subject to a separate agreement between DTC and Licensee, including a fair price
for such use.

7.      TERM AND TERMINATION

7.1     TERM. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date which

7.2     TERMINATION. In the event of a material default by a party, the other
party may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days (thirty (30) days in the
event of a failure to pay) prior written notice given pursuant to Section 20.5,
unless the default is cured within such sixty (60) (thirty (30) in case of a
failure to pay) day period. If either DTC or Licensee shall go into
receivership, bankruptcy, or insolvency, or make an assignment for the benefit
of creditors, or go out of business, or undergoes a similar event, this
Agreement shall be immediately terminable by the other party by written notice,
but without prejudice to any right of the terminating party hereunder.

7.3     DISPOSITION OF OMCS UPON TERMINATION. Upon termination of this Agreement
other than by DTC pursuant to Section 7.2, Licensee has the right to, within a
period of one (1) year after the effective date of such termination ("Sell-Off

Licensee prior to such termination and dispose of all OMCs made or partially
made prior to such termination, provided that the sale of such OMCs shall be

8.      CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

8.1     As used herein, "Confidential Information" means any information
provided by a party that is designated as confidential or that ought to be
considered confidential by the party receiving such information, based on the
nature of the information or the circumstances of disclosure. The Card
Manufacturing Technology shall be deemed part of DTC's Confidential Information.
Each party shall protect and maintain all Confidential Information of the other
party in strictest confidence. Each party shall take all necessary and proper
actions to preserve the secrecy and prevent disclosure of such Confidential
Information of the other party to persons other than its employees, agents,
directors, officers or advisors who need to know the Confidential Information
and are bound by written obligations of confidentiality at least as restrictive
as those contained herein. The receiving party shall not disclose to any person
or entity or use or permit the use of any Confidential Information of the
disclosing party except as reasonably necessary to perform and exercise its
rights and obligations under this Agreement. The receiving party will use the
same degree of care to protect the Confidential Information from unauthorized
use or disclosure as it would use to protect its own information of a similar
nature, but in no event with less than reasonable care. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, with respect to DTC, information disclosed by Licensee shall not be
considered Confidential Information hereunder unless the receipt of such
information has been approved in writing by CEO or Co-CEO following disclosure
of a non-confidential summary of the information. Licensee shall have the same
right to request a non-confidential summary of information prior to receiving
confidential information if they so notify DTC in writing.

8.2     The confidentiality obligations shall not apply to any information that
(i) is already known to the receiving party without restriction on use or
disclosure prior to receipt of such information from the disclosing party; (ii)
is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or inaction of the
receiving party; (iii) has been rightfully received by the receiving party from
a third party authorized to make such communication, without restriction on use
or disclosure; or (iv) has been independently developed by the receiving party
without use of the Confidential Information.

8.3     If the receiving party is subject to judicial or governmental
proceedings requiring disclosure of particular Confidential Information, then,
prior to any such disclosure, the receiving party will provide the disclosing
party with reasonable prior notice and will obtain, or provide the disclosing
party with an opportunity to obtain, a protective order or confidential
treatment of the Confidential Information.

11.1    INDEMNIFICATION BY DTC: Other than as to claims for which Licensee is
obligated to indemnity DTC pursuant to Section 11.2 below, DTC shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Licensee from any and all liability (including, without

hereunder infringes any third party copyright or involves a misappropriated
trade secret. Licensee will provide DTC with prompt written notice of any such
claim; DTC shall have sole control of the defense and any settlement of any such
claim although Licensee may participate at its own expense in such defense and
settlement with counsel of its own choice, and Licensee shall reasonably
cooperate and provide reasonable assistance in connection with the defense or
settlement of any such claim at DTC's expense. DTC shall not be responsible for
any settlement of the claim which it does not approve in writing. This
indemnification shall not, however, apply to any liability to the extent it
arises out of or is related to (i) any components, products, processes or
methods not supplied by DTC to Licensee or (ii) any modification, or combination
with other equipment, material, software or processes not supplied by DTC, which
are made by Licensee or a third party to the OMCs, (iii) failure to follow DTC's
instructions, (iv) use of the Card Manufacturing Technology other than as
allowed under this Agreement; or (v) manufacture or use of OMC Drives.

11.2    INDEMNIFICATION BY LICENSEE. Other than as to claims for which DTC is
obligated to indemnity Licensee pursuant to Section 11.1 above, Licensee shall
indemnify and hold harmless DTC from any and all liability (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and costs) resulting from any claim
brought or made against DTC based on Licensee's activities under this Agreement,
including, without limitation, Licensee's manufacture, distribution, sale, use
or other disposition of OMCs. DTC shall provide Licensee with prompt written
notice of any such claim, Licensee shall have sole control of the defense and
any settlement of any such claim although DTC may participate at its own expense
in such defense and settlement with counsel of its own choice, and DTC shall
reasonably cooperate and provide reasonable assistance in connection with the
defense or settlement of any such claim at Licensee's expense. In no event will
Licensee enter into any settlement of such claim that gives rise to any
additional obligation on DTC or that does not completely and forever release and
discharge the claim without DTC's prior written consent.

12.     APPROVAL BY COMPETENT AUTHORITIES; EXPORT CONTROLS

12.1    MUTUAL COOPERATION. The parties shall cooperate to secure for this
Agreement the clearance and/or approval, if any, which may be required by the

12.2    PROHIBITED COUNTRIES. To DTC's knowledge, United States government
regulations expressly prohibit exports or re-exports of products to the
following countries: Iran, Iraq, Laos, Libya, North Korea, Afghanistan, and

13.     MISCELLANEOUS

13.1    ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the Attachments hereto, including
the Equipment Sale Agreement(s) incorporated in this Agreement as if set forth
herein, constitute the entire understanding of the parties relating to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior or contemporaneous
agreements and understandings between the parties, whether written or oral, with
respect to the subject matter hereof, including without limitation the Prior
Agreement.

13.2    REFORMATION AND SEVERABILITY.

        (a)     REFORMATION. Each party intends that the object, means or
consequence of any restrictive provision of this agreement shall not infringe
applicable law. Each party shall keep the restrictions or limitations in this
agreement under review in light of the then current market conditions and other
factual circumstances and the then current requirements of antitrust and other
laws. From time to time should a party wish to undertake an action which is
prohibited or restricted by the agreement but which the party believes may not
prohibited or restricted under the then current circumstances and law, that
party shall notify the other party of such proposed action, make a proposal to
weaken or modify the allegedly problematic restriction or limitation in the
agreement, and explain its rationale. The other party shall promptly evaluate
whether the restrictions or limitations in the agreement need to be weakened or
modified in order to permit such action and shall notify the requesting party of
its conclusions. Should the parties disagree then they shall meet to resolve
their differences. To the extent the parties agree, they shall enter into a
waiver or amendment of problematic provisions of the agreement to weaken or
modify such restrictions or limitations under the circumstances to comply with
applicable law and to permit the desired action.

        (b)     SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
is held in any jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any
reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without
invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so
as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction while, at
the same time, maintaining the intent of the parties, it shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn without invalidating the remaining provisions
of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision
in any other jurisdiction.

13.3    AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The failure of either party to enforce a
provision hereof or to insist upon compliance with any provision of this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or excuse a similar
subsequent failure to perform any such provision by the other party. This
Agreement may be amended and the observance of any provision of this Agreement

                                       16
<PAGE>

may be waived (either generally or in any particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively) only with the signed written consent of both
parties.

13.4    BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT. Rights granted by this Agreement shall inure
to the benefit of and obligations under this Agreement shall be binding upon the
parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Rights
granted by this Agreement may not be assigned, and obligations under this
Agreement may not be delegated, by either party without the prior written
consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld and which
consent or refusal shall be given within ten days. Examples of reasons for
withholding consent would include but not be limited to DTC being concerned that
the assignee (i) will not produce quality OMCs in quantities at least equal to
those of Licensee, (ii) lacks financial wherewithal, or (iii) is a competitor of
DTC. For these purposes, an assignment will be deemed to occur if there is a
successor of all or substantially all of a party's assets, voting stock or
business to which this Agreement relates or a change of control of a party .

                            EQUIPMENT SALE AGREEMENT


        This EQUIPMENT SALE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into as of
_________, 2004 ("Effective Date") by and between LaserCard Systems Corporation,
a Delaware corporation with principal offices at 2644 Bayshore Parkway, Mountain
View, CA 94043 ("LaserCard"), and Global Investments Group Ltd, a corporation
with principal offices at level 27, Price Waterhouse Coopers Tower, 188 Quay
Street, Auckland 1001, New Zealand ("GIG").

        1.      EQUIPMENT SALE. LaserCard agrees to sell to GIG, and GIG agrees
to purchase from LaserCard, on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the coater/laminator system listed on Exhibit A (the "Equipment").
GIG acknowledges and agrees that LaserCard originally ordered the Equipment from
the manufacturer of the Equipment ("Manufacturer") for LaserCard's use as
LaserCard's next generation production system. Consequently, LaserCard needs to
order a replacement of the system ("Replacement System") from the Manufacturer,
with an estimated delivery date nine to eleven months following the date of
LaserCard's order. GIG acknowledges and agrees that LaserCard may use the
Equipment prior to LaserCard's receipt of the Replacement System. The Equipment
is scheduled to be delivered by Manufacturer to LaserCard in ________________,
2004. The parties anticipate that the Equipment will be shipped from LaserCard's
facilities in Mountain View, California, to GIG Facilities (as defined in
Section 2.3 below) within 10 months from LaserCard's receipt of the Second
Payment (as defined in Exhibit C).

        2.      INSTALLATION AND TRAINING AT LASERCARD FACILITIES.

                2.1     LaserCard will be responsible for installing the
Equipment at LaserCard's Mountain View facilities designated above ("LaserCard
Facilities") and for testing the Equipment so that, upon installation at the
LaserCard Facilities, the Equipment will meet the Acceptance Test described in
Exhibit B attached hereto ("Acceptance Test"). LaserCard will provide to GIG
written verification that the Equipment has met the Acceptance Test ("Initial
Proof of Performance"). LaserCard will use commercially reasonable efforts to
test the Equipment until the Equipment passes the Acceptance Test.

                2.2     GIG may designate up to three employees ("GIG
Employees") to participate in the installation and testing of the Equipment at
LaserCard Facilities and receive initial training with respect to the Equipment
("Initial Training"). GIG will be solely responsible for all out-of-pocket costs
and expenses associated with such participation, including, without limitation,
travel, lodging, meal and local transportation expenses. GIG shall require that
the GIG Employees, while on LaserCard's premises, observe LaserCard's rules and
policies relating to the security of, access to or use of such premises. The GIG
Employees shall not be permitted to remove any property of LaserCard or any
third party from LaserCard's premises without the prior written consent of
LaserCard. GIG will be responsible for all acts or omissions of the GIG
Employees while on LaserCard's premises, including, without limitation, acts or
omissions which result in damage to property, or injury or death to individuals.

                2.3     After the Equipment has successfully passed the
Acceptance Test and LaserCard receives the Replacement System from the
Manufacturer, LaserCard will disassemble, un-install, package and ship the
Equipment to GIG's facilities in Slovenia ("GIG Facilities"), subject to the
terms in Section 3 below. GIG will be solely responsible for all costs and
expenses incurred by LaserCard in the course of performing LaserCard's
obligations under this Section 2.3, and GIG will pay all such costs and expenses

                3.2     In all cases, LaserCard's title to the Equipment
(excluding title to software and to intellectual property rights therein), and
the risk of loss or damage, shall pass to GIG upon delivery to GIG's freight
forwarder. LaserCard assumes no responsibility for any delay, breakage or damage
to the Equipment after such delivery. GIG shall obtain reasonable insurance
against loss or damage occurring after such delivery.

        4.      INSTALLATION AND TRAINING AT GIG FACILITIES.

                6.3     EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 6, THE EQUIPMENT AND
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS," AND "AS AVAILABLE", AND LASERCARD MAKES, AND
GIG RECEIVES, NO ADDITIONAL WARRANTIES.

                                      B-6

LASERCARD HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR
NATURE CONCERNING THE EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT,
WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OF
THIRD PARTY RIGHTS.

        7.      CONFIDENTIALITY.

                7.1     During the term of this Agreement, each party (the
"Receiving Party") may be provided with or otherwise learn confidential and/or
proprietary information of the other party (the "Disclosing Party") (including
without limitation certain information and materials concerning the Disclosing
Party's business, plans, technology, and products) that is of substantial value
to the Disclosing Party, which is identified as confidential at the time of
disclosure or which ought in good faith to be considered confidential based on
the nature of the information or the circumstances surrounding disclosure
("Confidential Information"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
LaserCard, information disclosed by GIG shall not be considered Confidential
Information hereunder unless the receipt of such information has been approved
in writing by Chris Dyball following disclosure of a non-confidential summary of
the information.

                7.2     All Confidential Information remains the property of the
Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party may disclose the Confidential Information
of the Disclosing Party only to its employees and contractors who need to know
the Confidential Information for purposes permitted under this Agreement and who
are bound by written confidentiality agreements with terms at least as
restrictive as those provided in this Agreement. The Receiving Party will not
use the Confidential Information without the Disclosing Party's prior written
consent except in exercising its rights or performing its obligations under this
Agreement. The Receiving Party will take measures to maintain the
confidentiality of the Confidential Information similar to those measures the
Receiving Party uses to maintain the confidentiality of its own confidential
information of like importance but in no event less than commercially reasonable
measures. The Receiving Party will give immediate notice to the Disclosing Party
of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information and agrees
to assist the Disclosing Party in remedying such unauthorized use or disclosure.

                7.3     The confidentiality obligations do not extend to
Confidential Information which (i) becomes publicly available without the fault
of the Receiving Party; (ii) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from
a third party with the right to transfer such information without obligation of
confidentiality; (iii) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without
reference to or use of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information; or (iv)
was lawfully in the possession of the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure,
without restriction on disclosure. The Receiving Party will have the burden of
proving the existence of any condition in this Section 7.3.

        8.      TERM AND TERMINATION.

                8.1     Term. The term of the Agreement will begin on the
Effective Date and unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, will continue until completion of the Installation Support and
Training in the GIG Facilities.

                8.2     Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this
Agreement immediately, upon written notice to the other party, (i) upon the
other party's material breach of this Agreement, not cured within 30 days (10
days in the event of failure to pay) following receipt of written notice from
the non-breaching party describing the breach; (ii) upon the institution by or
against the other party of insolvency, receivership or bankruptcy proceedings or
any other proceedings for the settlement of the other party's debts; (iii) upon
the other party's making an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (iv)
upon the other's dissolution or ceasing to conduct business in the normal
course.

                8.3     Termination for Convenience. GIG may terminate this
Agreement for its convenience immediately upon written notice to LaserCard at
any time prior to making the Second Payment (as defined in Exhibit C) but not
more than ten days following the due date of the Second Payment. GIG may apply
the amount of the First Payment to the purchase of other LaserCard products or
services, provided that GIG purchases such other products or services within two
(2) years following the effective date of termination. If GIG fails to purchase
such other LaserCard products or services within such timeframe, or the amount
of LaserCard products or services purchased by GIG does not amount to the total
value of the First Payment, then the amount of the First Payment or any balance
thereof shall irrevocably revert to LaserCard.

                8.4     Effect of Termination. Upon any termination of this
Agreement, all amounts owed to LaserCard by GIG become immediately due and
payable within five (5) days of the effective date of termination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that GIG shall not be obligated
to pay the Second Payment to LaserCard if GIG terminates the Agreement for its
convenience pursuant to Section 8.3 above, or LaserCard terminates this
Agreement for cause pursuant to Section 8.2 above based on GIG's failure to pay
the Second Payment as provided herein. The provisions of Sections 3, 5, 6, 7,
8.4, 9, 10 and 11 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement
for any reason.

        9.      LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

                9.1     EXCEPT FOR EITHER PARTY'S BREACH OF SECTION 7
(CONFIDENTIALITY) AND FOR GIG'S COVENANT IN THE LAST SENTENCE OF SECTION 2.2, IN
NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY COSTS OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE
GOODS OR SERVICES OR FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
OF ANY KIND UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

                9.2     IN NO EVENT WILL LASERCARD BE LIABLE UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT FOR DAMAGES EXCEEDING THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY GIG TO LASERCARD UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT.

<PAGE>

        10.     MANUFACTURING AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT.

                10.1    Within Three (3) months following the Effective Date,
the parties agree to negotiate in good faith the terms of an agreement governing
the manufacture by GIG of LaserCard's optical memory cards and distribution of
such cards to certain markets, subject to mutually agreed upon terms and
conditions ("Manufacturing and Distribution Agreement"). The Manufacturing and
Distribution Agreement will provide, among other things, that GIG may only use
the Equipment to manufacture and supply optical memory cards to the mutually
agreed upon markets..

                10.2    GIG acknowledges and agrees that GIG shall not use the
Equipment to manufacture optical memory cards (i) at any time prior to the
parties' entering into the Manufacturing and Distribution Agreement, or (ii) if
the parties fail to enter into the Manufacturing and Distribution Agreement as
provided herein. In the event that the parties do not enter into the
Manufacturing and Distribution Agreement, GIG acknowledges and agrees that GIG
(or any purchaser of the Equipment) may not use the Equipment, directly or
indirectly, for any use other than the manufacture of non-optical memory cards.

        11.     GENERAL.

                11.1    Notices. Notices under this Agreement must be in writing
and will be deemed given when delivered personally, or by email or facsimile
(with confirmation of receipt) or by conventional mail (registered or certified,
postage prepaid with return receipt requested). Notices will be addressed at the
address set forth above, but each party may change the address by written notice
in accordance with this paragraph.

                11.2    Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns. GIG
may not assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement, or any right or obligations
hereunder, without the prior written consent of LaserCard. Any attempted
assignment in violation of this Section will be void

                11.3    Force Majeure. LaserCard is not responsible for any
delays or failures to perform under this Agreement caused by or resulting from
any act, omission or condition beyond LaserCard's reasonable control, whether or
not foreseeable or identified, including without limitation acts of God,
strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, governmental regulations, fire, power
failure, earthquakes, severe weather, floods or other natural disaster or GIG's,
or any third party's actions, hardware, software or communications equipment or
facilities.

                11.4    Governing Law. This Agreement and the performance
thereof shall be construed, interpreted, applied, and governed in all respects
in accordance with the laws of England without regard to the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

                11.5    Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or claim
concerning or relating to this Agreement (a "Dispute") shall be resolved by
final and binding arbitration under the Rules of the London Court of
International Arbitration in force as of the Effective Date. The tribunal shall
consist of one arbitrator who shall be independent, neutral and impartial. If
the parties do

                                      B-9
<PAGE>

not agree on the appointment of the Arbitrator, the London Court of
International Arbitration shall determine the arbitrator. The place of
arbitration shall be London. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
Judgment on an arbitral award may be entered by any court of competent
jurisdiction, or application may be made to such a court for judicial acceptance
of the award and any appropriate order including enforcement. The dispute
resolution proceedings contemplated by this provision shall be as confidential
and private as permitted by law. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, either
party may request injunctive and/or equitable relief either from the arbitrator
or from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to protect the rights or
property of the party, including for breach of the confidentiality obligations
under Section 8.

                11.6    Entire Agreement. This Agreement and its exhibits
constitute the entire agreement of the parties, and supersedes any and all prior
or contemporaneous agreements (whether oral or written) between the parties with
respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Any different or additional
term on any purchase order or other correspondence provided by GIG will have no
force or effect and are not binding on LaserCard. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, this Agreement may be modified only in writing and signed by an
authorized representative of each party.

                11.7    General Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement
is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision will be reformed only
to the extent necessary and in such a manner to effect the original intention of
the parties; all remaining provisions continue in full force and effect. Any
failure by either party to strictly enforce any provision of this Agreement will
not operate as a waiver of that provision or any subsequent default or breach of
the same or a different kind. The parties are independent contractors. Nothing
contained in this Agreement is intended or is to be construed to create a
partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency or legal affiliate relationship
between LaserCard or GIG or any relationship other than independent contractors.



                                      B-10

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the duly authorized representatives of each party
have executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date.

            By signing below, GIG acknowledges that it has reviewed, understands
and agrees with Section 10.2 above.

                      STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

1. Controlling Document. The acceptance of Purchaser's order is expressly made
conditional on Purchaser's assent to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
and LaserCard Systems Corporation (Seller) agrees to furnish the goods covered
thereby only upon these terms and conditions. To the extent this order is
covered by a prior-written contract (the "Contract") between the parties, it is
accepted on the terms and conditions in that Contract if they conflict with
those below. The terms and conditions of this instrument shall apply where they
do not conflict with the Contract, where the Contract is silent as to the
subject matter, and to the extent this order is not covered by a prior written
contract between the parties. No term or condition of Purchaser's order
inconsistent with the terms and conditions hereof, and no term, condition,
statement or representation not contained herein, shall be binding on Seller as
a warranty or otherwise. Unless Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing to the
contrary as soon as practicable after receipt hereof, acceptance of the terms
and conditions hereof shall be indicated and, in the absence of such
notification, the sale and shipment by Seller of the goods shall be conclusively
deemed to be subject to the terms and conditions hereof. No waiver, alteration,
or modification of any of the provisions hereof shall be binding on Seller
unless made in writing signed by an officer of Seller.

2. Prices and Taxes. Prices shown are for delivery of goods F.O.B. Seller's
plant. Any manufacturer's tax, sales tax, use tax, excise tax, custom,
inspection or testing fee, or any other tax, fee or charge of any nature
whatsoever imposed by governmental authority, on or measured by the transaction
between Seller and Purchaser shall be paid by Purchaser in addition to the
prices quoted or invoiced. In the event Seller is required to pay any such tax,
fee, or charge, Purchaser shall within ten (10) business days reimburse Seller
therefor.

3. Terms and Methods of Payment. Payment shall be made in U.S. dollars by, at
Seller's election: Cash with Order (in whole or part), C.O.D., direct wire
transfer of funds to Seller's bank, Sight Draft, Irrevocable Letter of Credit,
with all costs of collection to be borne by Purchaser, or net thirty (30) days
from date of invoice. Delinquent payments shall be subject to a carrying charge
of 1.5 percent per month or such lesser amount permitted by law. Where Seller
has extended credit to Purchaser, such credit may be changed or withdrawn by
Seller at any time. Each shipment shall be considered a separate and independent
transaction and payment therefor will be made accordingly. If shipment is
delayed by Purchaser, Seller shall invoice Purchaser as of the date Seller is
prepared to make shipment, and Purchaser shall be liable for payment of such
invoice according to the payment terms in effect. If in the judgment of Seller,
the financial condition of Purchaser at any time does not justify continuance of
production or shipment upon the terms of payment specified, Seller may require
full or partial payment in advance, and, in the event of bankruptcy or
insolvency of Purchaser, or in the event any proceeding is brought by or against
Purchaser under the Bankruptcy or Insolvency Laws, Seller shall be entitled, but
not required to cancel any order of the Purchaser then outstanding and shall
receive reimbursement from the Purchaser for its cost of cancellation. Should
legal action be instituted to recover any sum due from Purchaser, Seller shall
be entitled to recover costs of such action including reasonable attorneys'
fees.

4. Security Interest. Seller shall retain a security interest in the goods (and
replacements) delivered hereunder and in the proceeds from the sale or
disposition thereof, until Purchaser has made payment in full for such goods.
Purchaser shall, upon request by Seller, execute all documents (such as
California's UCC-1 Financing Statement) necessary to perfect such security
interest. Seller has the right, upon demand, to repossess goods delivered
hereunder if Purchaser fails to make timely payment.

5. Delivery and Delay. Delivery of goods to a carrier at Seller's plant or other
loading point shall constitute delivery to Purchaser. All risk of loss or damage
of goods in transit is borne by Purchaser. Seller reserves the right to make
partial deliveries, and unless otherwise specifically agreed to, all such
partial deliveries shall be separately invoiced and paid for when due per
invoice without regard to following deliveries. Delay in delivery of any
installment shall not relieve Purchaser of his obligations to accept remaining
deliveries. Claims for shortages or errors in delivery must be made in writing
to Seller within fourteen (14) days after receipt of shipment. Failure to give
such notice shall constitute unqualified acceptance and a waiver of all such
claims by Purchaser. Seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage as a
result of any delay due to any cause beyond Seller's control: including, without
limitation, an Act of God, act of Purchaser, fire, theft, accident, flood,
earthquake, slowdown, strike, riot, embargo, governmental act, regulation or
request, delays of common carriers, inability to obtain necessary labor,
materials or manufacturing facilities, or other similar causes. When in the
opinion of Seller there is a period of shortages of supply of its products for
any reason, Seller may allocate its available supply among any or all of its
various customers upon such basis as it shall deem fair and practicable, with no
liability on its part for failure to deliver the quantity or any portion therein
specified. Seller shall not be liable for any special, contingent, indirect or
consequential damages (including anticipated profits) resulting from delay.


                                       C-1
<PAGE>

6. Inspection. Purchaser shall examine all goods promptly upon receipt thereof.
Within fourteen (14) days of such receipt, Purchaser shall notify Seller in
writing of all claimed shortages and defects and, if a rejection is intended, a
specification of the grounds therefor. Otherwise, the goods will be deemed
accepted as of the date of shipment.

7. Limited Warranty. Except as provided in any warranties applicable to
Purchaser on or in the package containing the goods and which apply to specific
elements of the goods (which warranties take precedence over the following
warranty), Seller warrants articles of its manufacture against defective
materials or workmanship for a period of three (3) months from date of shipment
to the Purchaser. The liability of Seller under this warranty is limited, at
Seller's option, solely to repair or replacement with equivalent articles, or an
appropriate credit adjustment not to exceed the sales price to Purchaser,
provided that (a) Seller is promptly notified in writing by Purchaser upon
discovery of defects, (b) Purchaser has obtained a Return Materials
Authorization Number from Seller which RMA Seller agrees to provide Purchaser
promptly upon request, (c) the defective articles are returned to Seller,
transportation charges prepaid by Purchaser, and (d) Seller's examination of
such article discloses to its satisfaction that defects were not caused by
negligence, misuse, improper installation, accident or unauthorized repair or
alteration. The original warranty period of any article that has been repaired
or replaced by Seller shall not thereby be extended. The warranty set forth in
this Section 7 constitutes the sole and exclusive remedy against Seller for the
furnishing of nonconforming or defective goods.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSED IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND OF ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ON SELLER'S
PART. SELLER NEITHER ASSUMES NOR AUTHORIZES ANY OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR
SELLER ANY OTHER LIABILITIES.

8. Limitation of Liability. Seller shall in no event be liable for any special,
contingent, indirect, or consequential damages by reason of the fact that such
goods shall have been nonconforming or defective, including but not limited to
personal injury, property damage, anticipated profits, labor expended, delays
and loss of use of equipment.

9. Tooling and Designs. All tooling, molds, fixtures, specifications, drawings,
designs, data, information, methods, patterns, descriptions, programs, software,
ideas and/or inventions made, used, conceived, developed or acquired by Seller
incident to its performance hereunder and all patent, trade-secret, know-how,
copyright or other proprietary rights therein, shall be the exclusive property
of Seller and no part of the purchase price hereunder shall be deemed applicable
to the foregoing items.

10. Government Contracts. If any purchase order indicates that the purchase is
being made for use under a U.S. Government Contract, any terms and conditions of
such Government contract which are intended to be included herein must be set
forth in a separate written document signed by an officer of Seller in order to
be binding. Only those terms and conditions which Seller agrees to in writing
and are made mandatory by federal statute or regulation for inclusion in fixed
price supply subcontracts covering standard commercial proprietary items sold to
the public at commercial prices shall apply.

11. Export Regulations. Shipment of goods to Purchaser is contingent upon
compliance with U.S. Department of Commerce export control regulations. If a
U.S. government export license is required, Seller and/or Purchaser shall use
best efforts to obtain said license, and shipment date is contingent upon timely
receipt of same. Purchaser shall not knowingly export or re-export the goods
sold hereunder to any country, directly or indirectly, for which the U.S.
government or any agency thereof at the time of export or re-export requires an
export license or other government approval without first obtaining such license
or approval.

12. California Law. The rights and obligations under this Agreement will not be
governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded. Rather, the
parties expressly agree that such rights and obligations will instead be
governed by the laws of the State of California excluding the application of its
conflicts of law rules.

13. Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising out of, in connection with, or
relating to the agreement hereunder shall be resolved by binding arbitration in
San Francisco, California, pursuant to the rules then pertaining of the American
Arbitration Association.
