L-1 Identity Solutions Receives Second Task Order for $9.4 Million in HIIDE(TM) Biometric Recognition Devices from the U.S. Department of Defense.

STAMFORD, Conn. -- L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: ID) announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, SecuriMetrics, Inc., received a second task order totaling $9.4 million from the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) for HIIDE (Handheld Interagency Identity Detection Equipment) biometric recognition devices and other related software. The period of performance under the order is four months and shipments are expected to be completed by the end of 2007.

This order is part of an existing requirements contract with the U.S. Army's Space Program Office (ASPO) which supports the Tactical Exploitation of National Capabilities Program (TENCAP) and was first announced by L-1 in April 2007. The contract calls for a maximum of $71 million in HIIDE devices over 24 months, with the first task order valued at $23.7 million already received and shipping.

"HIIDE's ability to operate at 100 percent mission readiness and with over 98 percent device reliability across very harsh operating conditions, makes this device an invaluable asset in helping our troops to quickly and safely obtain and verify identities in the field at detention centers and military base checkpoints and on the battlefield," said Robert V. LaPenta, L-1 Identity Solutions Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

HIIDE is the world's first hand-held biometric identification device that can enroll, identify or verify subjects using any of the three primary biometrics: iris, finger, face.

The total number of devices ordered by the DoD from SecuriMetrics to date is 6,664, with more than 3,370 devices already shipped and currently deployed by the U.S. government in areas of global conflict.
