Re: Nominations of Michael E. McKinzy Sr.

Dear NMTI Committee Members:

Michael E. McKinzy is my client at The Patent Professor. I have worked with him to draft a patent
application for Evote Technology.

As a Patent Attorney specializing in IP, I have distinguished the contributions that EVote Technology has
made in our nation. EVote Technology is an invention that eliminates voter fraud. To further prove its
originality, EVoter Technology also provides authentication services outside of the voting process with
ATMs and other transactions that require verification of identity.

McKinzy's invention will assist in protecting the voting process in our country. It also provides additional
aid to ensure that Americans are not left vulnerable to identity theft when making ATM and Point of Sales
transactions.

Sincerely,

John Rizvi, Esq.

Patent Attorney
