    LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 19, 2003--

    Fluiditi Intelligent Cash Security Solution to Be Deployed with
                     All Units in the Netherlands 

NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR) today announced it has signed a deal with Moneybox Corporation, the United Kingdom's leading independent supplier of automated teller machine (ATM) services, to supply up to 250 Personas 70 ATMs equipped with NCR's Fluiditi technology, the cash-staining Intelligent Cash Security solution.

The machines will be deployed at convenient locations such as petrol stations, fast-food restaurants and motorway service stations throughout the Netherlands. As part of this deal, NCR will also provide installation and maintenance services.

Fluiditi protects cash during delivery to the ATM, across the pavement outside the "cash in transit" (CIT) vehicle, during replenishment, as well as when the ATM is in operation. At each stage, any physical attack will result in cash inside the unit being spoiled by indelible ink, rendering the cash worthless.

Christophe Primault, managing director of Fluiditi Ltd, said, "The demand for ATMs to be deployed in more convenient locations is increasing. What was a U.S. phenomenon has become accepted practice in the U.K. We see this announcement as part of a wider move in the trend towards greater convenience across Europe as a whole. NCR's innovative Fluiditi technology will be a key enabler in the ongoing growth and development of this expanding market. In adopting this end-to-end solution, our customers are sending a clear message to thieves - 'Don't bother, there'll be nothing worth stealing.'"

Paul Stanley, chief executive of Moneybox, added, "Moneybox has worked closely with NCR to deploy cost-effective and secure ATMs in the U.K.'s growing convenience market, and we are happy to continue this relationship into the Netherlands. We are confident that the Fluiditi security solution will provide the end-to-end technology we require."

Fluiditi Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of NCR Corporation. The Intelligent Cash Security solution provides comprehensive CIT and ATM cash protection and a quick return on investment. Its implementation deters criminal activity and protects cash and security personnel in the event of an attack.

Moneybox was the first non-bank to deploy ATMs in the Netherlands. There are currently 100 machines installed at predominantly Shell and BP petrol stations and McDonald's restaurants.

About Moneybox

Moneybox launched its first convenience ATM in June 1999 and now owns and manages the leading independent ATM network in the UK where it has a total estate of over 2,100 ATMs.

Moneybox deploys ATMs at points of convenience, with consumers paying a convenience fee of GBP 1.50 per cash transaction. This enables the ATM to be located in places that do not attract enough cardholders to support a traditional cash machine, promoting consumer choice and wider accessibility to their cash. Virtually every bank card and credit card is acceptable through Moneybox ATMs as a result of Moneybox's membership of the LINK network. The ATMs are branded Moneybox and also carry the LINK logo.
