This communication contains forward-looking statements by L-1 Identity Solutions that involve risks
and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and reflect L-1’s current views based on
management’s beliefs and assumptions and information currently available. Forward-looking
statements concerning future plans or results are necessarily only estimates, and actual results
could differ materially from expectations. Certain factors that could cause or contribute to such

announced proposed merger with Safran, the risk that actions or deliverables that, by their nature,
are to be taken or delivered at the closing of such transaction may not be taken, delivered or
waived, and additional risks and uncertainties described in the Securities and Exchange Commission
