Background Note on Secure Design

On 14 July 2006, Secure Design was the first Japanese company to be admitted to
trading on AIM. It offers fingerprint authentication products to companies and
individuals that wish to establish high levels of security using biometrics.
Biometrics uses a physical attribute of the body, such as a fingerprint to
identify and verify the individual with the aim of making individual
authentication efficient and secure.

The Company offers a range of fingerprint authentication products and systems,
from an integrated system to a mobile device. The Company designs and outsources
the production of these products and can tailor them to individual client
specific needs and applications.

Biometric applications provide convenient and reliable security which reduces
the cost associated with the failure of conventional authentication methods. The
principal factor which distinguishes biometrics from conventional password based
authentication is the enhanced security level it provides while maintaining the
privacy of individual users.

The worldwide demand for biometrics is estimated to be increasing by
approximately 30 per cent per year with the market estimated to grow to almost
$6 billion by 2010 from $2 billion in 2006. Biometric applications and systems
are already being used for security in personal, commercial, government and
military organisations. Many governments, including the UK, have adopted or are
currently reviewing the need for biometric applications in passport and national
ID card systems. The Directors believe that as biometric applications in
national identification become commonplace the commercial applications will
proliferate. The commercial market for biometrics is expanding to financial, IT,
telecommunication and medical segments.
