Regulatory News:

Gemalto (Euronext NL0000400653 GTO), the leader in digital
security, today announced that it will provide leading Health Sector
specialists ZZZS and Cetis with a comprehensive solution for the
latest generation of electronic health cards for Slovenian citizens.
This new electronic health card is the first of its kind in Europe to
feature a Java public key infrastructure (PKI) that will further
secure the online health system via a digital signature for health
professionals.

Gemalto´s Coesys Issuance solution to be delivered in Slovenia
consists of middleware, digital signature capabilities, software
applications, applets and cards. Cetis, Slovenia´s leader in security
document printing will operate the personalization of the cards and
the PKI infrastructure. ZZZS, the Health Insurance Institute of
Slovenia, in charge of the National Health Insurance Card System, will
act as system integrator and will issue the cards to the citizens. The
whole solution ensures backward compatibility with the existing
infrastructure.

Mr. Marjan Suselj, Director of the HIC System Sector at ZZZS,
comments: "Our eHealth 2010 strategic plan has the ambitious objective
to inter-connect health information systems on the national level,
ensuring eServices and transparent information to all relevant parties
in a secure and efficient way. The Gemalto technology is one of the
key enablers to put in place this eBusiness model for a common way of
work in the Slovenian health sector by 2010".

In 2000, Slovenia was among the very first countries, with France,
to introduce microprocessor-based health cards. The country is now
renewing and upgrading the two million e-health cards currently in
circulation in the country. The latest generation of Gemalto e-health
solutions for Slovenia will significantly enhance online services for
health professionals by enabling them to go through their
administrative tasks faster and exchange medical data and messages
with hospitals and other health professionals in an easy and secure
manner.

"Gemalto is proud to contribute to this innovative project
highlighting once again the pioneering role of Slovenia in the digital
security arena" adds Jacques Seneca, Executive Vice President of
Gemalto in charge of the Security Business Unit. "The introduction of
this new PKI based solution is further evidence of Gemalto and its
partners´ commitment towards innovation that provides better security
and convenience for governments and citizens".
