Open Solutions Canada Selects Hypercom's HBNet for One of Canada's Largest Off-Premise ATM and POS Networks

PHOENIX & GLASTONBURY, Conn.--(Business Wire)--
Open Solutions Inc.(R) and Hypercom Corporation (NYSE: HYC) today
announced HBNet, Inc., a Hypercom(R) subsidiary, will provide
high-speed transaction transport services for Open Solutions Canada,
the Canadian subsidiary of Open Solutions, which operates one of
Canada's largest off-premise ATM and point-of-sale networks. Open
Solutions is a leading provider of integrated enabling technologies
for financial service providers across the United States, Canada and
internationally.

"HBNet brings us the exact specifications we need in terms of
stability and security that would be impossible to replicate
internally," says Rob Palin, general manager of the Payment Solutions
Group at Open Solutions Canada. "We believe HBNet is the fastest and
most reliable network and that it will make our payment processing in
Canada even more competitive."

The use of HBNet will enhance Open Solutions Canada's ability to
smoothly and securely process millions of ATM and POS transactions
each month to financial institutions. HBNet's unparalleled performance
is achieved through multiple network and equipment redundancies that
guarantee the seamless routing of all transactions. HBNet also
provides the industry's highest level of security for dial and
Internet transaction processing.

"Open Solutions Canada is a premiere Canadian account and one that
validates HBNet's offering of performance, price, service and
know-how," says Connie Festa, HBNet Vice President Network Services at
Hypercom.

Hypercom's HBNet network speeds the authorization and processing
of electronic transactions for retail point-of-sale, financial,
government, health care and other customers in both the dial and IP
POS markets.

HBNet is powered by robust, ultra high-density MegaNAC(R) 180
Network Access Controllers (NACs) strategically positioned within the
North American Public Switching Telephone Network (PSTN) and at
processor data centers. It supports all POS terminal protocols at any
modem speed up to V.92 and provides uninterrupted service with no
