From: "ANN V. BROWN" Subject: Digital Signature Legislation Dear Mr. Costner: Mytec Technologies has a patented solution for security of electronic commerce and the positive identification of individuals through biometric encryption using optical computing. Biometric Encryption uses the unique two dimensional image of a person's finger pattern (it can use any biometric) to code or decode information. We are encryption algorithm independent and can provide a truly robust system. The Mytec technology is unique to the person using it. It is capable of verification. It remains under the sole control of the person using it. It is linked to data in such a way that it offers authentication of the sender, non-repudiation of the recipient and data integrity. We strongly urge you to ensure that the regulations adopted by the State of Georgia do not preclude the implementation of various technologies in addition to public key + certifying authorities. Electronic commerce is in its infancy and any legislation that is drafted at this point must be flexible enough to allow for various authentication technologies that are presently available and for those that may be developed in the future. We cannot have government agencies writing legislation that stifles competition. Please e-mail me any questions that you may have or with your mailing address. I will be happy to mail you a complete package of information, or you can access our home page at www.mytec.com I thank you in advance for your consideration of this request. Our company is located in Atlanta and I would be happy to set up a demonstration of this technology to any interested parties. Sincerely, Ann V. Brown Vice President
