'We worked very hard to help homeowners as quickly as possible,' said Kevin Watters, Chief Executive Officer of Mortgage Banking.

The company's efforts from March 1, 2012 through April 15, 2013 included:

• Forgiving $2.9 billion in principal on first-lien mortgages
• Refinancing $3 billion of loans to underwater borrowers who were current on their mortgage
• Reducing customers' loans by an average of $121,000 in forgiving principal while modifying first mortgages
• Forgiving an average of $118,000 to facilitate a short sale for those who couldn't afford a modified payment or no longer want to stay in their homes
• Implementing all 320 servicing standards as announced in October.

"We have helped nearly 1 million homeowners in the most difficult years since the Great Depression,' Watters said. 'We have also invested in improving our processes and systems to help families achieve and sustain the American dream of homeownership.'

Chase launched initiatives to lower borrowers' interests, extend terms, defer principal and forgive principal to make monthly payments more affordable for struggling homeowners. Since 2009, Chase has:

• Reduced principal balances by $6.5 billion in first-lien modifications
• Helped nearly 1 million families avoid foreclosure
• Provided loan modifications to more than 600,000 borrowers, allowing them to stay in their homes

All consumer relief credits are subject to validation by the Office of Mortgage Settlement. Even though Chase has fulfilled its consumer relief obligation under the National Mortgage Settlement, Chase continues to work with borrowers to explore reasonable alternatives to foreclosure, including principal reduction modifications where appropriate, and to help borrowers understand and access government-based homeowners' assistance programs.

'Giving back has been a cornerstone of Morgan Stanley's culture and values since our founding in 1935,' said James P. Gorman, President and CEO of Morgan Stanley. 'Our partnership with Feeding America has long been an important way for us to create impact, and I am proud of the innovative programs we have worked on together that give children the healthy start they need for lifelong achievement.'

In this latest phase of Morgan Stanley's Fill the Plate initiative, awards to local food banks will total more than $1 million each year for the next four years. The innovative design for this grant-giving allows individual food banks to select hunger-relief programs that most effectively match their local population and capabilities. The awards provide groundbreaking flexibility to Feeding America and its hunger-relief network of over 200 food banks nationwide.

'With more than 16 million children in the United States in danger of going hungry, we know that we can't solve this issue alone,' said Bob Aiken, President and CEO of Feeding America.

'It is an honor for Morgan Stanley to strengthen its partnership with Feeding America in the fight against children's hunger. At the same time, I take special pride in the efforts of individual Morgan Stanley employees who regularly spend time volunteering at Feeding America's network food banks across the country,' said Joan Steinberg, Global Head of Philanthropy at Morgan Stanley.

'We are seeing an increase in activity and the South Florida real estate market is finally coming out of the doldrums,' said Cory Fritzler, founder and CEO of Investyle Real Estate, a South Florida real estate company that deals with the sale, rental and management of vacation units, condos and single family homes.

'It's still a buyer's market, but that could change very soon if these trends continue,' Fritzler added.

Historically-low interest rates and bargain real estate prices have also ignited activity, as well as foreign investors taking advantage of buying opportunities. Nearly 1,000 people per day are moving to Florida, many of which are coming for white collar jobs and a favorable climate – Fritzler notes that all of these individuals are in need of housing.

As a very active real estate agent in the Fort Lauderdale and South Florida areas, Cory Fritzler has a network of investors with inventories of homes for sale. He has an active knowledge of market trends, real estate values and deals to be purchased both as a primary residence or investment.

Investyle Real Estate also offers oversight and management of homes and condos for out-of-state investors. Its rental properties provide housing to vacationers and snowbirds in Fort Lauderdale, Miami Beach and other areas of South Florida. The company weathered the recent downturn and is now positioning itself to capitalize on the current market environment.

'South Florida is still one of the best places in the country to invest in real estate. A combination of great weather, beautiful beaches and a strong job market will continue to decrease inventory and drive up prices,' says Fritzler. 'Buyers will see better deals sooner rather than later.'

LevelUp will initially interface with the industry-leading NCR Aloha POS using a site-based integration, while in parallel developing its solution for deployment via NCR Cloud Connect expected later this year. LevelUp will be one of the first companies to integrate into Cloud Connect, a new hosted infrastructure that will allow leading third parties to integrate, maintain and deploy their solution across NCR's install base of more than 100,000 locations on the Aloha, Radiant POS and Advanced Restaurant System platforms.

Today's restaurant operator wants to leverage technology in an integrated way to make their everyday life easier. Gartner estimates mobile payments worldwide will have 448 million users and account for $617 billion in transaction value by 2016*.

'LevelUp has always known that in order for mobile payments to become a standard for merchants, we need to provide a solution that seamlessly fits into their existing systems. The NCR relationship is significant because it makes using LevelUp simple for the tens of thousands of restaurants who already run Aloha,' said Seth Priebatsch, chief ninja at LevelUp. 'NCR understands what it takes to help restaurants keep pace with technology, and by integrating LevelUp, we are helping them get the great tools they need to run their businesses better.'

NCR's open API software enables integration to the Aloha POS by approved third-party applications. With this integration, restaurants using Aloha POS will be able to accept LevelUp transactions faster and easier than ever before. First, LevelUp transactions will be seamlessly logged with all other cash and credit card transactions, making reconciling the day's receipts simple. Second, data from LevelUp campaigns will be automatically integrated into a restaurant's existing Aloha POS system.

'As the leading provider of technology to the restaurant industry in the U.S., NCR is committed to bringing a wide variety of in-house and third-party mobile and digital wallet technologies to our customers, adding more value to their businesses,' said Kim Eaton, SVP and GM of NCR Hospitality. 'Using this new integration platform, our customers can choose the technology that is the best fit for their operations and for delivering exceptional experiences to their guests.'

'As the Managing Partner of a restaurant chain that uses NCR Aloha POS and is soon to launch a white-labeled LevelUp application, I was really excited to hear about this integration,' said Brett Schulman, CEO and co-founder of Cava Mezze Grill. 'In the restaurant space, having all payment transaction and marketing campaign data seamlessly filter into one system will ultimately allow us to make smarter business decisions and forge deeper connections with our customers.'

*Forecast: Mobile Payment, Worldwide, 2009-2016." The report is available on Gartner's website at http://www.gartner.com/resId=2010515

The acquisition was financed from VASCO's existing cash balances. The acquisition is expected to be dilutive in 2013, due in large part to the amortization of purchased intangible assets. The acquisition is expected to be accretive in 2014.

Cronto was founded in 2005 as a University of Cambridge spin-out and is the market leader in the field of secure visual transaction authentication and signature solutions for online banking applications. The CrontoSign solution (also known as photoTAN) has been chosen to secure transactions of customers of leading German and Swiss banks such as Commerzbank AG and Raiffeisen Switzerland.

Cronto's patented CrontoSign technology is a simple, user friendly and effective way to withstand even very sophisticated attacks by Trojan malware, targeting online banking services. CrontoSign protects against such attacks as it allows the bank to establish a secure optical communication channel with the client. Account holders can simply 'scan' a CrontoSign image displayed on their bank's website and verify the details of the payment on a trusted display. They can choose between the CrontoSign mobile application or a dedicated CrontoSign hardware device.

VASCO will add the patented CrontoSign products to its offerings for the global banking market.
In a later phase, VASCO anticipates that Cronto's products will be integrated into MYDIGIPASS.COM, VASCO's strong authentication platform to secure the consumers' online applications/accounts.

VASCO expects that Cronto will contribute greatly to VASCO's future innovation efforts, due to its knowledge and expertise in advanced statistical data analysis and machine learning algorithms that underpins high speed and reliability of image based transactions and due to its close ties with the University of Cambridge.

'The acquisition of Cronto is a strong example of VASCO investing in its future growth,' states T. Kendall Hunt, VASCO's Chairman and CEO. 'Through our make-or-buy strategy for new technologies, we will keep scanning the market for suitable companies to join VASCO. Today, we would like to welcome Cronto's management and staff into the VASCO family.'

'Our objectives are to reinforce our leadership position in the banking authentication market and to become a successful business-to-consumer authentication services provider. The acquisition of Cronto is a significant step forward in helping us achieve both objectives,' says Jan Valcke, VASCO's President and COO. 'Cronto adds important innovative authentication technology to VASCO's technology portfolio, traditionally a point of attention for a market driven company like VASCO.'

'CrontoSign helps to bring trust in the online environment and to protect against Man-in-the-Browser and social engineering attacks. It is also highly accepted by the end users due to the simplicity of its operations, delivering the secure 'What you see is what you sign (WYSIWYS)' experience at one touch of a button.' said Igor Drokov, CEO and co-founder of Cronto. 'Joining forces with VASCO will allow us to leverage their leading position in the global authentication & security market bringing this and future products to new customers and new applications worldwide.'

Dr. Elena Punskaya, Cronto's co-founder and CTO added: 'The combination of the experience and R&D capacity will allow Cronto and VASCO to continue to identify new opportunities and implement the market vision, taking advantage of Cronto's position in Cambridge, UK – an undisputed centre in the global innovation landscape.'

Topic: Kalimantano GmbH Pursues Legal Claims in U.S. Federal Courts against Watches' Seller Motion in Time, Inc. Located in New York.

The Board and management of Kalimantano GmbH convened a meeting, held in Frankfurt, Germany. Among the issues on the agenda was the legal action pursued by Kalimantano GmbH and its principals Tofik Davidoff, Konstantine Felde, and Jonannes Schwegler.  The legal action in the USA was triggered by the malicious defamation campaign staged by the operators of the jewelry and watches shop, located in New York, Motion in Time, Inc. Namely, the operators of that jewelry and watches shop had made the false allegations against Mr. Davidoff, accusing him of larceny of some watch in New York. In fact, Mr. Davidoff has never even traveled to New York or to the United States.

In the course of the court proceedings, the Board and the management of Kalimantano GmbH categorically denied and deny all the false allegations made by defendant Motion in Time, Inc. and its principals, Eddie Shamayev, Michael Shamayevs, Boris Shamayev and David Shamayev.

Restating Kalimantano's pleadings in the U.S. District Courts, incorporated by reference, neither Kalimantano GmbH nor its principal Mr. Davidoff has ever committed any unlawful acts. On the contrary, the pleadings allege that Kalimantano GmbH wire transferred $120,000 to the bank account of Motion in Time, Inc., located at: 56 W 47th Street, New York, NY. However, instead of receiving the merchandise from Motion in Time, Inc. ordered with that advance payment, Kalimantano GmbH received promises and later the treats to the good reputation and safety of Mr. Davidoff and his family. Considering the situation, Kalimantano GmbH and Mr. Davidoff had no choice but to seek the protection of the law enforcement in Germany and in the United States.

The management of Kalimantano GmbH had previously authorized the filing of the civil case Kalimantano GmbH, Tofik Davidov, Konstantin Felde, et al. against Motion in Time, Inc., Eddie Shamayev, Michael Shamayev et al. The case was filed in September of 2012 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Docket 12cv6969. Kalimantano GmbH incorporates by reference the allegations contained in its complaints filed in that action, without repeating the court documents.

In response to the attempts by defendants Motion in Time Inc. and the Shamayevs to dismiss the case on various grounds, the U.S. District Court has refused to dismiss the case and ruled that the matter may proceed on three alternative grounds.  The court documents in that matter are in the federal courts and are in the public domain.

Additionally, Kalimantano GmbH and its principals filed a case against the Internet providers that were used by the perpetrators for the defamation campaign. That second case is also pending in the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., Docket 12cv2005. Likewise, the court documents in that other matter are in the public domain.  Furthermore, Kalimantano GmbH and others filed acase against New York-based parties in U.S. District Court in Manhattan.  By way of negotiations, most of the claims in these cases have been resolved by way of settlement.

Kalimantano GmbH intends to vigorously assert its claims and to defend its good reputation, as well as the integrity of its principals, by all legal means allowed by the law, in the Courts of law.

The Board of Kalimantano GmbH has also complimented the work of its attorneys in the USA, namely Peter A. Joseph, Esq., of New York City, and George Lambert, of Washington, D.C.

Kalimantano GmbH is in the business of wholesale of foodstuffs in Germany, including but not limited meat and fish products, in a great variety.  Reference is made to its website, providing the description of its current range of the products.
