Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Sponsor and Participants
L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc.
Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

L-1 IDENTITY SOLUTIONS, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 2006 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1.
|
Description of Plan
|
General : The L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is a self-funded contributory stock purchase plan that provides employees the option to purchase L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc. (“Plan Sponsor”) common stock (the “Stock”) at a discounted price.
The Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor on July 5, 2006, and was approved by the stockholders of the Plan Sponsor on August 29, 2006, to allow eligible employees to purchase Plan Sponsor Stock (initially 500,000 shares in the aggregate). Eligible employees are employees of the Plan Sponsor or any of its subsidiaries who are employed on a basis such that they are expected to work more than twenty hours per week for more than five months per calendar year in the employ of the Plan Sponsor or any of its subsidiaries, and who are employed at the beginning of the offering period. Four offering periods commence in each calendar year. The offering periods consist of the three-month periods beginning on each January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1, during which eligible participants may elect to have deducted a portion of their compensation to purchase shares of the Stock at the end of each offering period. The purchase price of the Stock is equal to the lesser of 85% of the fair market value of a share of Stock on the date the purchase right is granted or 85% of the fair market value of a share of Stock on the date the purchase right is exercised. Fair market value is defined on any relevant date under the Plan as the average of the high and low price per share as reported by the New York Stock Exchange. A participant may withdraw from the Plan at any time before the last day of any offering period.
The Plan purchase for the offering period beginning on January 1, 2009 exceeded the remaining number of shares available to be issued under the Plan. Therefore, employee purchases were limited to purchase the remaining shares available under the Plan on a prorated basis, and excess contributions were refunded to the participants.
The Plan was amended and restated on February 10, 2009 to permit the issuance of an additional 2,000,000 shares of Stock. The stockholders of the Plan Sponsor approved the Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan on May 6, 2009.
On September 19, 2010, the Plan Sponsor entered into an agreement (“the Merger Agreement”) with Safran, SA. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, contributions to the Plan were suspended as of October 1, 2010. The last purchase under the Plan was made for the offering period beginning July 1, 2010. This suspension was ratified by the Compensation Committee of the Plan Sponsor on October 25, 2010.
Contributions : Contributions to the Plan are made by the participants based on the amount participants elect to have witheld, not to exceed 10% of their base salary during an offering period, not taking into account changes to base salary which might occur once an offering period has commenced. However, no participant may purchase Stock that exceeds $25,000 in fair market value during any one calendar year. In addition, purchase rights will not be granted to any individual who immediately thereafter would own stock, including stock purchasable under any outstanding purchase rights, possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Plan Sponsor or any of its affiliates. Contributions are made through payroll deductions. The Plan’s first offering period commenced on January 1, 2007, and had four completed periods in each of the calendar years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, during which an aggregate of 481,171 and 297,724 shares of stock were purchased for participants, respectively. Due to the Plan suspension, there were three completed periods for the calendar year ended December 31, 2010 in which an aggregate of 295,269 shares of stock were purchased for participants.
Payment of benefits: At the end of each offering period, participants’ contributions withheld during the offering period are utilized to buy stock sufficient to reduce the participants’ Plan accounts to zero. The stock is deposited directly into participants’ personal accounts.

Notes to Financial Statements
Distributions : Upon written request, participants may withdraw their total contributions in cash and without interest at any time prior to the last day of an offering period, unless the participant has waived their cancellation right. Upon termination of employment for any reason or loss of eligible employee status, participation in the Plan terminates immediately and all amounts witheld for such a participant prior to the end of an offering period will be returned without interest.
Administrative Expenses : The Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor or its designee administers the Plan. The expenses of administering the Plan are paid by the Plan Sponsor.
Vesting and Termination : At all times, participants have fully-vested, non-forfeitable rights to all amounts deducted from their compensation. The Plan may be terminated or amended by the Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor at any time. However, the Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor may not, without stockholder approval, take any action that would adversely affect the then existing purchase rights of any participant or amend the Plan (i) to increase the number of shares subject to the Plan, (ii) to change the class of persons eligible to participate in the Plan, or (iii) to increase materially the benefits accruing to participants under the Plan.
Plan Accounts : The Plan Sponsor maintains Plan accounts on its books in the name of each participant during each offering period. Amounts witheld from a participant’s compensation are credited to the participant’s Plan account. Such amounts are not held in a separate trust and may be commingled with the Plan Sponsor’s general assets. No interest is credited on such accounts.
Note 2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Basis of Accounting : The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual basis of accounting.
Purchases of Stock : Payments for purchase of the Plan Sponsor Stock are recorded when the purchases are made at the end of each quarterly offering period.
Participant Contributions : Participant contributions, as well as a related receivable from the Plan Sponsor, are recorded when amounts are deducted from participants’ compensation for the purchase of Plan Sponsor Stock.
Distributions Due to Participants : Participants may withdraw their contributions to the Plan up to the last day of any offering period; therefore, all participant contributions not previously used for Stock purchases are recorded as a liability.
Use of Estimates : The preparation of financial statements require the trustees to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
