 SAFLINK AND THE EMPLOYEE HEREBY AGREE, in consideration of the mutual obligations and covenants set forth below, to the following terms and
conditions:

 SAFLINK shall employ the Employee on an at-will basis effective on the date specified above, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Employment Agreement (“the Employment”). 
  

	2.	Duties 

  

	 	2.1	SAFLINK shall employ the Employee as President and Chief Executive Officer. The Employee shall faithfully and diligently perform the duties and responsibilities assigned to
him by SAFLINK in its sole discretion. The Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees that it is necessary to submit to a finger, eye and voice scan to utilize SAFLINK’s software to perform the Employee’s required duties. SAFLINK may, in
its sole discretion, alter the Employee’s position or job duties, as it deems appropriate. 

  

	 	2.2	The Employee shall devote all of his time, attention, and best efforts to SAFLINK’s business. 

  

	 	2.3	The Employee agrees to comply with all federal, state, and local laws applicable to his Employment. The Employee further agrees to fully cooperate with SAFLINK in complying with all
of SAFLINK’s legal obligations and shall provide any information necessary or requested to satisfy such legal obligations, including but not limited to a taxpayer identification number or other identifying information used in the reporting of

	3.	Compensation

	 	    	year. The employee shall also receive 250,000 options to purchase SAFLINK Corporation Common Stock vesting annual over three (3) years commencing from grant date subject to
Board approval. The compensation in no way alters the at-will nature of the Employee’s employment. SAFLINK may, in its sole discretion, increase, decrease, or otherwise alter the Employee’s salary at any time. SAFLINK may also make
deductions or withholdings as required by applicable State and Federal law, or as may be or has been consented to by the Employee.

Employee. 

  

	4.	Reasonableness of Restrictions 

  
 The Employee acknowledges that, during the Employment, SAFLINK will provide the Employee with the use of and access to trade secrets and confidential information. In
turn, the Employee recognizes that, while performing his duties hereunder he will have access to and come into contact with trade secrets and confidential information belonging to SAFLINK and will obtain personal knowledge of and influence over its
customers and/or employees. The Employee therefore agrees that the restrictions contained in Sections 5, 6 and 7 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of SAFLINK. 
  

	5.	Duty of Loyalty 

  
 The Employee agrees that he shall devote his full working time, attention and efforts to SAFLINK’s business. In all aspects of the Employee’s employment with SAFLINK, the Employee shall act in the
utmost good faith, fair dealing with SAFLINK, and fully disclose to SAFLINK all information which SAFLINK might reasonably consider important to SAFLINK’s business. While employed by SAFLINK, the Employee shall not establish, operate,
participate in, advise, or assist to establish in any manner whatsoever any business in competition with SAFLINK’s business, and the Employee shall not take any preliminary or preparatory steps toward establishing or operating such a business,
including soliciting clients or other employees of SAFLINK with respect to such business prospects, or even discussing said business prospects with clients or other employees of SAFLINK. The Employee shall not take action which would divert from
SAFLINK any business opportunity in which SAFLINK may or could be interested. The Employee shall immediately notify SAFLINK of any actual or potential business opportunity related to SAFLINK’s core business of which the Employee becomes aware,
whether or not the Employee believes the opportunity is of interest to SAFLINK.

confidential. 

  

	 	6.2	The Employee shall not at any time during the continuance of the Employment with SAFLINK make any notes or memoranda relating to any matter within the scope of SAFLINK’s

that, consistent with the provisions of the Washington Employee Patent Act, Title 49, Chapter 49.44, the Employee shall not be obligated to assign an Invention or work of authorship for which no equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret

	 	7.3	In the event SAFLINK is unable for any reason whatsoever to secure the signature of the Employee to any lawful and necessary documents required, including those necessary for the
assignment of, application for, or prosecution of any United States or foreign applications for letters patent or copyright, the Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints SAFLINK and its duly authorized officers and agents as agent and
attorney in fact, to act for and on the Employee’s behalf and stead to execute and file any such application, and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the assignment, prosecution and issuance of letters patent or copyright
thereof, with the same legal force and effect as if executed by the Employee. The Employee hereby waives and quitclaims to SAFLINK any and all claims of any nature whatsoever which the Employee may now have or may hereafter have for infringement of
any patent or copyright resulting from such application.

	9.	Severability 

  
 The various provisions and sub-provisions of this Employment Agreement are severable, and if any provision or sub-provision or identifiable part thereof is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent

	 	3.2	Renewal. On completion of the Initial Term specified in Section 3.1 above, this Employment Agreement will automatically renew for subsequent one (1) year terms (each a
“Renewal Term”) unless either party provides sixty (60) days’ advance written notice to the other that SAFLINK/Employee does not wish to renew the Employment Agreement for a subsequent one-year term. In the event either party gives
notice of nonrenewal pursuant to this Section 3.2, this Employment Agreement will expire at the end of the current term. 

  

	4.	Compensation 

  

	 	4.1	The Employee’s initial “Base Salary” shall be one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000) per year. The Employee will be eligible to earn a sales bonus based

	 	8.3	In the event SAFLINK is unable for any reason whatsoever to secure the signature of the Employee to any lawful and necessary documents required, including those necessary for the
assignment of, application for, or prosecution of any United States or foreign applications for letters patent or copyright, the Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints SAFLINK and its duly authorized officers and agents as agent and

any patent or copyright resulting from such application. 

  

	 	8.4	The Employee agrees that any copyrights in work produced by the Employee during his employment with SAFLINK which relate to past, present or foreseeable business, products,

Employee’s employment, under the applicable provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), provided that Employee elects to continue and remains eligible for these benefits under COBRA, and does
not obtain health coverage through another employer during this period.

	11.	Severability 

  
 The various provisions and sub-provisions of this Employment Agreement are severable, and if any provision or sub-provision or identifiable part thereof is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent
