The Opteva ATMs offer innovative services designed to enhance branch
efficiency with a dual advantage: Customers can execute transactions without
having to enter the branch, while at the same time, branch employees can
concentrate on higher value consulting activities and services.

Diebold's solid relationship with Banca Carige includes the adoption of Agilis
multichannel software for its ATMs which allows for increased flexibility in
processing new cutting-edge services for customers. The Agilis multichannel
software is installed in 500 of Banca Carige's ATMs for four different
vendors.

"Diebold offers the most flexible ATM technology to assist in renovating our
branches with full-function automated services," said Diego Piovan, director
of Banca Carige Group's Organization Department. "We chose Diebold's Agilis
multichannel software because it effectively supports our retail banking
services in a multivendor scenario."

"The Banca Carige project is a perfect example of transformations in the
retail banking sector, and Diebold technology can significantly contribute
towards the process," said Danilo Rivalta, vice president and general manager,
Diebold EMEA Southern and Central Regions. "For Banca Carige, Diebold has
created a multichannel solution that interacts with deposit automation
facilities to offer innovative services and enhance branch efficiency."
