Dear Warrant Holder:

         We are extending a Special Warrant Offer ("SWO") to warrant holders to
exercise their warrants at reduced prices. This offer is designed to raise funds
necessary to satisfy the cash reserve requirement to close our merger with
SAFLINK as well as provide meaningful capital for the combined company to
execute its growth strategy. However, should the merger not close, it is still
important that we build cash reserves through the SWO to pursue a number of
important strategic initiatives, even in the absence of the merger, that will
help us reach our full potential. Any warrant holder who desires to take
advantage of the SWO must exercise all warrants (at the reduced SWO price for
those warrants). The SWO is described in further detail in the enclosed Special
Warrant Offer Agreement.

         The exercise price of your warrants was amended to effective as of
September 1, 2003 to match the exercise price of our Series A-1 Warrants (which
have an original exercise price of $1.25 that will increase to $1.50 on July 22,
2004). Pursuant to the SWO, the exercise price of your warrants will be reduced
to $1.00 for those warrants exercised in full by you. For those warrants not
exercised, the warrant exercise prices will increase on July 22, 2004 as
scheduled.

         In making your decision to participate in the SWO, it is important that
you review all of the enclosed materials, as well as our SEC filings and press
releases. In this regard, we are enclosing for your review a copy of our
preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus that was filed with the SEC on May
17, 2004 as part of a Form S-4 registration statement filed by SAFLINK. This
document provides a thorough description of both SSP and SAFLINK, as well as an
overview of the proposed merger and financial information about both companies.
Please note that this document is being delivered to you solely for purposes of
assisting you in deciding whether to participate in the SWO. We are NOT
soliciting your vote on the proposed merger or any other matter.

         You should also note in the preliminary joint proxy
statement/prospectus the disclosure that the merger agreement with SAFLINK
requires that, as a condition to closing of the merger:

         o        SSP terminate employment agreements with Marvin Winkler, Kris
                  Shah and Tom Schiff;

         o        SSP make whatever payments to them are required to settle
                  related obligations to them with respect to those
                  terminations; and

         o        Messrs. Winkler, Shah and Schiff enter into new agreements
                  with SAFLINK.







The terms of those existing agreement termination settlements and new agreements
are still being negotiated. However, you should be aware that the final terms
could involve significant payments by SSP to Messrs. Winkler, Shah and Schiff
immediately prior to the closing of the merger. While none of the funds from the
SWO will be earmarked for these payments, or any other specific initiative, any
payments to Messrs. Winkler, Shah and Schiff will come from our general working
capital, of which the SWO funds will constitute a significant portion.

         We believe that this SWO is in the best interest of all of our stock
and warrant holders. Thank you for your continued support and consideration of
this offer.

                                                  Sincerely,

                                                  Marvin J. Winkler, CEO

                                    --------

         WHEREAS, the parties hereto entered into a Securities Purchase,
Registration Rights and Security Agreement dated as of April 16, 2002, for
purposes of setting forth the terms and conditions relating to the issuance and
sale of various securities, including Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued
pursuant to that agreement, (collectively, "ORIGINAL WARRANTS" or "WARRANTS"),
which Warrants were subsequently amended by the First Amendment to Warrant to
Purchase Common Stock ("AMENDED WARRANTS") dated September 1, 2003; and

         WHEREAS, the parties wish to modify the terms of the Amended Warrants
in the manner and to the extent set forth herein and the Investor wishes to

                                    AGREEMENT
                                    ---------

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration for the premises and mutual covenants
contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as
follows:

         1. SPECIAL WARRANT OFFER. The terms of the Investor's Amended Warrants
are hereby modified and amended so as to reduce the exercise price of the
Warrants such that the exercise price for the shares purchasable upon exercise
of the Amended Warrants (the "WARRANT SHARES") shall be reduced to $1.00 per
share ("SPECIAL EXERCISE PRICE") subject to (a) exercise of ALL of the Amended
Warrants, in whole or in part, and receipt by the Company of payment in full of
the Investor's aggregate Special Exercise Price, on or before June 21, 2004
("SPECIAL WARRANT OFFER").

         2. PAYMENT OF SPECIAL EXERCISE PRICE. In order for the Investor to
effect a valid exercise under this Agreement and the Amended Warrant, the
Company must receive (a) an executed copy of this Agreement, (b) payment in full
of the applicable total aggregate Special Exercise Price, (c) a fully completed

         3. NO ANTI-DILUTION EFFECT. Any and all Warrants owned by the Investor
are hereby modified and amended to provide that there will be no adjustments to
the exercise price of those Warrants (other than the reduction to $1.00, as
provided in SECTION 1) as a result of the reduction in the exercise price,
pursuant to the Special Warrant Offer, of any other warrants issued by the
Company, and all anti-dilution rights with respect to any and all Warrants owned
by the Investor are hereby waived to the extent that they might become operable
as a result of the Special Warrant Offer.

                                       3







         4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTOR. The Investor
represents and warrants to the Company that:

                  4.1 INVESTMENT PURPOSE. Upon exercise of the Warrants, the
Investor will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof for the
Investor's own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection
with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales
registered or exempted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"SECURITIES ACT").

                  4.2 ACCREDITED INVESTOR STATUS. The Investor is an "accredited
investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the
Securities Act.

                  4.3 RELIANCE ON EXEMPTIONS. The Investor understands that the
Special Warrant Offer is being made to the Investor in reliance on specific
exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and
state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and
accuracy of, and the Investor's compliance with, the representations,
warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Investor set
forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the
eligibility of the Investor to acquire the Warrant Shares pursuant to the
Special Warrant Offer.

                  4.4 INFORMATION. The Investor and the Investor's advisors, if
any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances
and operations of the Company, including, without limitation, the information
required to be delivered to the Investors under Rule 502(b)(2) of Regulation D,
and any other materials relating to the Special Warrant Offer that have been
requested by the Investor. The Investor and the Investor's advisors, if any,
have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. The Investor
understands that the Investor's investment in the Warrant Shares involves a high
degree of risk. The Investor has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as
the Investor has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision
with respect to the Investor's acquisition of the Warrant Shares.

                  4.5 NO GOVERNMENTAL REVIEW. The Investor understands that no
United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental
agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Warrant
Shares or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Warrant Shares
nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of
the Warrant Shares.

                  4.6 AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEMENT; VALIDITY. This Agreement has
been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the
Investor and is a valid and binding agreement of the Investor enforceable
against the Investor in accordance with its terms, subject as to enforceability
to general principles of equity and to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' rights and
remedies.

                  4.7 RESIDENCY. The Investor is a resident of that jurisdiction
specified in its address set forth on the signature page of this Agreement.

                  4.8 NO SHORT SALES. Between the date of receipt of the SWQ
and the closing date of the proposed merger between the Company and SAFLINK
Corporation, the Investor will not "sell short" or otherwise take any "short"
positions in the stock of either the Company or SAFLINK Corporation. The
Investor will not offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Common Stock
obtained on exercise of the Amended Warrant, except under circumstances that
will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any
state securities laws.

                  4.9 SEC REQUIRED LEGEND. INVESTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SAFLINK
AND THE COMPANY HAVE FILED A JOINT PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ("SEC") IN CONNECTION WITH THEIR PENDING
