(k) Expiration of Subsequent Offering Period and the Merger

On January 28, 2011, Purchaser announced that the Offer’s subsequent offering period terminated at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 28, 2011 as a result of the consummation of the Merger. In the Offer, an aggregate of approximately 9.393 million Shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn, representing approximately 76.1% of the outstanding Shares. Purchaser has accepted for payment all Shares tendered through such termination. On January 28, 2011, through the exercise of the Top-Up Option to purchase additional Shares from LaserCard (as described more fully in the Offer to Purchase), Purchaser owned in excess of 90% of the outstanding Shares.

On January 28, 2011, ASSA ABLOY and LaserCard issued a joint press release announcing that the second step merger of Purchaser with and into LaserCard became effective on January 28, 2011 and LaserCard is now an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of ASSA ABLOY. As a result of the Merger, each outstanding Share not validly tendered and accepted for payment in the Offer (other than any Shares in respect of which appraisal rights are validly exercised under Delaware law and any Shares owned by LaserCard, ASSA US or any of their subsidiaries) was converted into the right to receive the same per Share price of US$6.25, net to the seller in cash without interest thereon, paid in the Offer. Effective after the close of market on January 28, 2011, trading in LaserCard’s common stock on the Nasdaq will cease. The foregoing summary with respect to the joint press release is qualified in its entirety by reference to the joint press release which is filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(I) to Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule TO, filed on January 31, 2011, and is hereby incorporated by reference.

Item 9 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following exhibit:
