for check imaging and clearing.

TROY FORTRESS Business Checks incorporate twenty of the most advanced security
features available to help prevent unauthorized copying and check alteration.
Equipped with eight covert security features, TROY FORTRESS checks provide
court enforceable check verification. A truly unique covert feature
incorporated into TROY FORTRESS Checks are hidden microstructures, an image
survivable security feature that remains visible to a trained document
examiner even after the document has been scanned to a low resolution bit map;
a practice that is common in today's Check 21 imaged-based check clearing.

TROY SECURITY and SECURITY PLUS Business Checks include many of the advanced
copy, authentication and tamper evident features offered in the TROY FORTRESS
check paper. Organizations seeking to update their current business checks

SECURITY and SECURITY PLUS Business Checks the most secure, cost effective
options available on the market today.

challenges setting a new standard for fraud prevention," states Larry
Landtiser, Executive Vice President and General Manager. "For over 30 years
