Marfin Investment Group ("MIG"), Marfin Popular Bank ("MPB") and WIND Hellas Group announce they have reached an agreement for a broad Strategic Alliance to jointly exploit new growth opportunities in the telecommunications and banking sector in Greece.
The Strategic Alliance between the three Groups is based on a shared vision for unified communications, emerging ICT offerings and the development of sophisticated banking services using mobile technology and allows all three Groups to drive new growth opportunities with the potential to ultimately transform the Telecoms and Banking Markets in the region.
By engaging all three Groups as applicable at the business, marketing and technology levels, the alliance spans through the complete spectrum of Telecom services (Fixed, Mobile and Data) leveraging on the know-how of MIG's daughter company SingularLogic in the Information Technology market as well as on all three parties leading business status in SEE.

MPB is, in turn, one of the largest financial institutions in SEE offering a complete range of financial services in Cyprus, Greece, Serbia, Romania, UK, Australia, and other SEE and developed markets. The Group has an established presence in 13 countries, a branch network of 477 branches in Cyprus, Greece and international locations, and a labour force of more than 8.000 employees.
WIND Hellas serves more than 5.5 million customers in Greece both in the mobile as well as the fixed telephony market, being an integrated telecom operator after the buyout of Tellas, with an extensive network of 400 WIND stores all over the country.
The business opportunities to be jointly pursued by WIND Hellas, MIG and MPB concern the following preliminary identified areas:
1. Establish a joint ICT offering in the B2B Market, targeting professionals, SMEs, Large Enterprises, MIG and MPB companies included.
2. Proceed with commercial branding agreements, utilizing the branding strength of specific MIG Group companies and activities
3. Exploit synergies in Telco Infrastructure, through utilization of MIG's and MPB's vast PoP network

5. Define a preferred Technology Provider status for MIG with respect to WIND Information Technology requirements.
6. Work together to develop services in the mobile banking area
By launching these and other future initiatives MIG, MPB and WIND Hellas aim at creating significant value to their shareholders, customers and employees; enabling them to realize sizeable benefits through the utilization of already identified solid opportunities in a market increasingly calling for converged, innovative, ICT solutions.
Mr. John Karakadas, MIG Deputy CEO stated:
"Today, MIG makes a decisive step in fulfilling its plans to enter the attractive Telecoms Market, and we feel confident of the prospects of our partnership with one of the most dynamic and innovative Telecom Groups in SE Europe with whom we share similar views and jointly we can really make a difference. MIG has made a careful evaluation of the local Telecoms Market and its participants in the past 12 months. We feel comfortable that our selected path enables us to utilize fully the tremendous opportunities the market currently offers, while minimizing investment risks, especially in light of a challenging macroeconomic environment".
Mr. Efthimios Bouloutas, MPB CEO stated:
"In recent years the way the financial services industry conducts business has changed rapidly. The ability to offer financial transactions securely through advanced mobile networks and electronic communications has opened up a huge market for financial institutions interested in offering value added services. MPB, a pioneer by nature, is once more, through its Strategic Cooperation with WIND, in a pole position to develop a wide range of services to its customers through electronic and mobile banking applications."
Mr. Socrates Kominakis, WIND Hellas CEO commented:
"The vigour and the size of the three groups render this strategic cooperation a particularly important development for the Greek ICT market.

The Managing Director of ANEK LINES SA Ioannis I. Vardinogiannis underlined, inter alia: "We feel very glad since ANEK LINES enters in a decisive and dynamically developed phase, not only for its growth but for its offer in the passengers, enforcing the basis for a stabile process towards the future. We remain focus in the de-velop of a safe and competitive fleet, according the European standards, which results in the growth of the Greek tourism as well as of our country generally. The F/B ELYROS is one of the biggest and most luxury vessel travel-ing in the Greek seas, built with the highest standards in order to provide high quality services. Faithful in our val-ues and with an experience of 40 years in the Greek seas, I really believe that the F/B ELYROS will contribute significantly in the renewal of the coastal shipping industry and reinforce the continuous effort of ANEK LINES to upgrade the provided services of tourism.
On Saturday, September 27, 2008 took place the inauguration of vessel F/B ELYROS in the port of Souda in Chania, Crete, where thousands of visitors participated in the ceremony, admiring the facilities of the vessel.
F/B ELYROS, named in honor of the ancient town Elyros - one of the most significant town of south-west Crete during the historical yeas - acquired by ANEK in 2007, while the whole retrofit took place in the shipyards of Perama in Piraeus supporting the Greek shipping economy.
F/B ELYROS's carrying capacity is 2.000 passengers approximately, 110 tracks and 55 cars (or alter-native 650 cars). According the vessel's technical characteristics the length is 192 meters and the width is 27 meters, disposes 850 beds and the service speed is 24 knots. The vessel's standards meet all the requirements regarding safety prescriptions, environmental protection, automatic systems and modern facilities, while the well designed interiors and exteriors and the comforts promise safe and luxury trips.
The company's decision to deploy the new vessel ELYROS on the Piraeus - Chania route is in accor-dance with the ANEK's strategy for renewal and expansion of its fleet. At the same time the operation of this additional vessel will develop the financial results since the company's owned fleet will be consisted of 11 ves-sels increasing the total transfer capacity in passengers and vehicles.
