AMENDMENT.  This Amendment, and terms and provisions
hereof, constitute the entire agreement among the parties pertaining to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous
amendments relating to the subject matter hereof. Except for the amendments to
the Loan Agreement expressly set forth in Section 2 hereof, the
Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force
and effect. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not
operate as a waiver of or, except as expressly set forth herein, as an amendment
of, any right, power, or remedy of the Lender Group as in effect prior to the
date hereof.  The amendments set forth herein are limited to the
specifics hereof, shall not apply with respect to any facts or occurrences other
than those on which the same are based, and except as expressly set forth
herein, shall neither excuse any future non-compliance with the Loan Agreement,
nor shall operate as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default.  To
the extent any terms or provisions of this Amendment conflict with those of the

Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as
delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment.  Any
party delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or
electronic mail also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this
Amendment, but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not
affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Amendment.

and collectively, jointly and severally, as the “Borrowers”), each of the
lenders that is from time to time a party thereto (together with their
respective successors and permitted assigns, individually, “Lender” and,
collectively, “Lenders”), and WELLS FARGO FOOTHILL, INC., a
California corporation, as the arranger and administrative agent for the Lenders
(in such capacity, together with its successors, if any, in such capacity,
“Agent”; and together with each of the Lenders, individually and collectively
the “Lender Group”), dated as of October 7, 2003 (as amended, restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Loan Agreement”), or in Amendment
Number Eight to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2008 (the
“Amendment”), among the Borrowers and the Lender Group.  The

undertaking to which it is a party or by which any of its properties may be
bound or affected; (b) consents to the amendment of the Loan Agreement by the
Amendment; (c) acknowledges and reaffirms its obligations owing to the Lender

Reaffirmation and Consent.  Any party delivering an executed
counterpart of this Reaffirmation and Consent by telefacsimile or electronic
mail also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Reaffirmation
and Consent but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall

Dear Joe,

         The Board of Directors of SecureCare Technologies, Inc. met on Monday,
December 17, 2007 and voted unanimously to extend an offer to you to join the
Company's Board of Directors, along with Dr. Richard Corlin, Alan Stamy and
Dennis Nasto. Your extensive accomplishments as an entrepreneur will add
strength and insight to our evolving company while hopefully providing you with
opportunity and reward.

         As you know, we have made considerable progress in the past year as a
business enterprise, especially in evolving our products, our technology
solution, and in defining and differentiating our company in the marketplace. We
have broadened the depth and quality of our professional staff and we
successfully raised the financing to bring "Sfax" to the market.

         In regard to Board meeting requirements and compensation for your
service on the Board, the following will apply:

         Board Meeting Schedule:

         o        The Board plans to hold, on average, six meetings per year.
                  These meetings will be scheduled around the 1st of every other
                  month and held via teleconference. The meetings will be
                  scheduled in advance in accordance with all board members'
                  availability. In addition, from time-to-time, the Board will
                  hold informal discussions regarding pertinent business matters
                  that arise in the normal course of business. These informal
                  discussions will also be held via teleconference.

         o        The Board has typically held one in-person meeting per year,
                  usually at the Austin corporate headquarters location.

         Board Member Compensation:

         o        You will become a fully voting Board member on the day that
                  you accept this offer to join the Board. The Board, in 2008,
                  will be structuring a Stock Option Plan, out of which the
                  Board Members will be granted stock options. The structure of
                  the 2008 Stock Option Plan and the stock option grants to be
                  made there under will be finalized in the second quarter of
                  2008. Other elements of Board member compensation will be
                  structured by the Board in 2008. Dennis Nasto will be leading
                  these efforts.

         o        Board members serve an initial one-year term and are
                  re-elected, on an annual basis, by the shareholders, at the
                  annual shareholder meeting. Your initial term will commence on
                  your acceptance date (as indicated below) and continue until
                  such time that the Company has its next annual shareholder
                  meeting. At that meeting you will be re-elected for a full
                  one-year term. The Company is planning to hold an annual
                  meeting of shareholders in Year 2008 but has not established a
                  date for the meeting.

         o        To the extent that you incur any out-of-pocket expenses
                  related to the execution of your duties, you will be
                  reimbursed in full.

         Upon acceptance of your offer to join the Board, I will be forwarding
you a package of additional information, including copies of board meeting
minutes from the past year, a copy of the annual 10-K for Year 2007 that was
filed with the SEC, copies of our Corporate By-Laws and a contact information
listing for all board members and corporate officers.

         I look forward to working with you and the other board members directly
to grow the Company and create tremendous value for our market, our customers,
our shareholders and employees.

         Please indicate your acceptance of the offer to join our Board by
signing below and faxing a copy of the signed document to my attention at
512-366-8507.

         I am available at your convenience to discuss any questions you may
have.

Most Sincerely,

/s/ Neil Burley

Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary
