Gentlemen:
This will confirm our understanding of an extension of the “Automatic Termination Date” by making the following changes in the Merger Agreement Amendment, which have been authorized by the directors of JAG Media, Cryptometrics Acquisition and Cryptometrics:

“If the Closing does not occur for any reason by April 20 2007 the Merger Agreement shall automatically terminate, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing (ÒAutomatic Termination DateÓ), being so authorized by their respective boards of directors.”
All defined terms used in this agreement, which are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement Amendment. Except as otherwise set forth in this agreement, the Merger Agreement Amendment and the Merger Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
If the foregoing accurately reflects your understanding of our agreement regarding the above matter, please indicate your agreement and acceptance by signing in the appropriate space below and returning a fully executed and dated copy of this agreement to the undersigned.
