Headline: Finger/Matrix Employees Refuse to Go Home Despite Company's Lack of Funds
====================================================================== DOBBS FERRY, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 27, 1997--Despite the announcement Oct. 8 by Finger/Matrix Inc. (NASDAQ EBB:FINX) that it was suspending operations temporarily pending receipt of additional funding, the bulk of its staff has refused the layoff and continues to come to work as usual, without any guarantee of compensation. "They are confident we will secure additional capital soon and they don't want their projects to be interrupted," Thomas T. Harding, president, reported. The electronic fingerprinting pioneer has three new completely re-engineered systems ready for market, including an advanced 10-printer recently certified by the FBI for use in the law enforcement field both here and abroad, but it has exhausted its operating funds. Harding said serious discussions are under way with several prospective investors, both corporate and financial. "If the funds become available from one of these sources our loyal employees will be paid for their voluntary services," he added.
