ITEM 1.01: ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

         Document Security Systems, Inc. has entered into an agreement with
Boise White Paper LLC effective as of January 19, 2005 whereby Boise White Paper
has agreed to serve as a distributor of the blank safety paper of Registrant.

         The agreement grants Boise White Paper an exclusive arrangement to be
the sole marketing agent and distributor of the blank safety paper in North
America. The agreement provides for certain marketing efforts by Boise White
Paper in conjunction with Boise White Papers' "Boise Beware" brand. The
agreement is for an additional term of two years, and may be automatically
renewed by the parties. Boise must satisfy certain minimum sales amounts during
the term of the agreement. In the event that the full two year term is
satisfied, the minimum sales levels will be approximately $1,500,000.

         The agreement may be terminated by Document Security Systems if Boise
White Paper does not satisfy the minimum sales amounts after 18 months. Boise
White Paper may terminate the agreement if Document Security violates the
exclusivity rights granted to Boise White Paper. There are additional events
such as breaches of intellectual property rights or other usual and customary
representations and warranties.
