IP TRANSFER FROM BEYONDLSI IN JAPAN AND
BUSINESS ALLIANCE WITH SHENYANG BEYONDLSI, INC. IN CHINA
BgenuineTec Inc. ("BGT") has signed an agreement with BeyondLSI Inc. ("BLJ") for
a cash consideration of approximately 20 million Yen (GBP136,573*) for the right
to use the fingerprint authentication algorithm licensed by BLJ. The agreement
will enable BGT to market its products in both Japan and the USA in the
knowledge that they are fully protected by the patented algorithm used in them.
BGT has also entered into a business alliance in China with Shenyang BeyondLSI,
Inc. ("BLC") in which it has agreed to pay royalties in respect of gross profits
that it generates through the sale of the patented products in China. This
business alliance will lead BGT to focus on the marketing and sales of secure
products, such as fingerprint LSI chips and modules, mobile phone fingerprint
security, secure door locks and Smart card match-on-cards, containing this
patented technology and their applications for the Chinese market,
particularly the module business in the banking and financial sectors. In
addition, under the terms of the agreement, BLC will be permitted to purchase
BGT products and sell these to customers in Japan and the United States and
shall pay BGT a royalty on any licensed products BLC sells directly to customers
in these markets.
Hiroaki Kunieda and Dongju Li, both Directors of BGT, past directors of BLJ,
shareholders in BLC and, in respect of Dr Kunieda, a party to the business
alliance agreement, are deemed to be related parties in accordance with Rule 13
of the AIM Rules. The Directors of the Company, other than Dr. Kunieda and Dr
Li, having consulted with BgenuineTec's Nominated Adviser, Charles Stanley
Securities, consider that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable
insofar as its shareholders are concerned.

Background Note on BgenuineTec Inc.
On 14 July 2006, BgenuineTec Inc. (AIM; BGTI) 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.
