Asset
      Purchase Agreement with Parascript, LLC
As
      previously announced, Mitek Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Mitek")
      entered into a definitive Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 13, 2006 (the
      "Agreement") with Parascript LLC., a Wyoming limited liability company
      ("Parascript"), pursuant to which Mitek will acquire substantially all of the
      assets and liabilities of Parascript (the "Transaction"). It was also announced
      that funding for the Transaction was to be provided by a combination of $35
      million in subordinated convertible notes and $55 million in senior debt from
      Plainfield Asset Management, LLC ("Plainfield").
Currently,
      Mitek and Parascript are in discussion regarding a potential modification of
      the
      Transaction structure as a result of certain tax issues affecting Parascript.
      Mitek and Parascript are discussing an alternate deal structure that would
      result in substantially identical economic results for Mitek and Parascript
      as
      those contemplated by the Agreement. If Mitek and Parascript agree to modify
      the
      structure of the Transaction, such modification will require amendments and
      modifications to the Transaction documents, including the Agreement and the
      funding agreements with Plainfield.
Additional
      Information
In
      connection with the Transaction (whether or not modified), a Registration
      Statement is intended to be filed which will include a related joint proxy
      statement/prospectus. Mitek stockholders are urged to read the joint proxy
      statement/prospectus regarding the proposed transaction when it becomes
      available, because it will contain important information. Mitek stockholders
      will be able to obtain a free copy of the proxy statement/prospectus (when
      available), as well as other filings containing information about Mitek, without
      charge, at the SEC's internet site (http://www.sec.gov). In addition, investors
      and security holders may obtain free copies of the documents filed with the
      SEC
      by Mitek by directing a request to Mitek Systems, Inc.,
8911
      Balboa Ave, Suite B, San Diego, California
,
      92123.
      The respective directors and executive officers of Mitek and other persons
      may
      be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies in respect of the
      proposed Transaction. Information regarding Mitek's directors and executive
      officers is available in its Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2005,
      filed with the SEC. Other information regarding the participants in the proxy
      solicitation and a description of their direct and indirect interests, by
      security holdings or otherwise, will be contained in the proxy
      statement/prospectus and other relevant materials to be filed with the SEC
      when
      they become available.
