UVIX Corporation Enters Into Agreement With BioPay

BOCA RATON, FL - Jan. 30, 2003 - UVIX Corporation (www.uvix.com), a leader in biometric and security solutions, and Herndon, Va.-based BioPay, LLC today announced an agreement under which UVIX Corporation will offer the BioPay line of products and services to eliminate fraud, increase revenue, and improve customer convenience.

"Check fraud remains a large problem for many merchants. BioPay offers an affordable solution that we can now offer to merchants," said UVIX President and CEO Steven J. Ziman. "Because biometric technology provides the best defense to combat various types of fraud, we are pleased to add BioPay's range of products to our arsenal of fraud-prevention weapons and tools. As a value added reseller (VAR) of BioPay products and services, we will benefit from additional revenues while providing merchants with market-leading biometric payment technology."

UVIX Corporation will offer merchants BioPay's market-leading check cashing system. The system electronically captures a customer's fingerprint, stores a template of the fingerprint image, and then records check-cashing transactions associated with that person. A customer's negative check-cashing information is stored in a central database and shared between all merchants using the BioPay system. Advanced alert mechanisms warn the clerk of a potential bad check before the transaction is completed, enabling the transaction to be declined before it is processed, saving the store money it may have otherwise lost.
