By the end of the year in 2008 the e-SMART® Management Team had introduced the Company’s new RF and Wireless “I AM”™ Super Smart Card™ technology in Paris at the Cartes 2008 biometric smart card show, which was an important milestone for the Company.
A number of photographs and a video of the “I AM”™
technology introduction presentations at the Paris Cartes show are posted
on the Company’s website.
Also, the Management Team implemented the “I AM”™ Super Smart™ Card
Pilot Programs in South Korea at:
u-Smart Tech Company Ltd., (Korea Teachers Pension Operator) - Employee ID
Card and PC Access Control
Samwon FA Company - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Easy Internet Company, Ltd., - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Lee & Pak Company, Ltd., - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Harmony Tech Company, Ltd., - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Geminico Company, Ltd., - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Zero M & B Company, Ltd., - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Acronet Company - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Comtec Plus - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
Comtec C & S - Employee ID Card and PC Access Control
NANO Think Company, Ltd., - Access Control Card

BSM Plus Company, Ltd., - Employee ID Card and Access Control Card

The “I AM”™ Angel Card was introduced and a presentation is on the website which demonstrates the potential uses of the I AM™ Angel Card to provide secure payment of charitable aid, food tokens, benefits and financial aid paid by government agencies, and gifts donated by charitable organizations and individuals, directly onto the “I AM”™ Angel Card of the intended individual recipients in need of assistance, which can help to insure that international aid, financial benefits and gifts are not stolen or diverted by corruption or wasted on “administrative costs.” With the “I AM”™ Angel Card donations and payments can be securely directed to and received by the intended beneficiaries onto their own “I AM” ™ card which will look like a regular “I AM” ™ debit card, thereby eliminating the stigma of an aid, benefit or charitable card and thus preserve the dignity and privacy of the individual aid recipients. .

Translation of Article:
KL-Net (www.klnet.co.kr) announced on Jan 22, 2009 that it has started information protection convergence service with the “USS(Ubiquitous Security Service) Project Consortium Ceremony” held at the company’s meeting room on the same day.
Attendees were representatives from Duzon Information Security Service Co., Ltd., Secuve Co., Ltd., U-Smartech Co., Ltd., KTB Solutions Co., Ltd., A3 Security Co., Ltd., Fusion I Tech Co., Ltd., and e-Smart Korea Inc.
KL-Net said that the USS Project was developed in order to prevent personal information leakage and to verify the person who has dealt with the information since the number of the information leakage cases has soared recently and has resulted in astronomical costs of lawsuits.
Park Jeong Cheon, the CEO of KL-Net, said at the ceremony that the project “will make it possible to establish ubiquitous environment of stable and user-friendly IT convergence”, and “we will provide user access control service in the fields of U-City, finance, logistics, distributions and etc.”
