Santa Ana, Calif., Ismaning, Germany and Aix en Provence, France, November 3,
2011 (euro adhoc) - Identive Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE, Frankfurt: INV) and
INSIDE Secure today announced the delivery of the 10 millionth smart ticket to a
popular vacation destination in Southeast Asia. The thermal printed guest
tickets are used at the resort for contactless admission to various attractions
and guest facilities. 

"Our customer has experienced a three-fold increase in visitors over the past
year, which has required rapid turnaround on new ticket designs and production
to keep up with their growing demand," said Michael Kober, managing director of
Identive´s Transponder division. "Our goal is always to provide a consistently
high level of quality and service, and we are very pleased to have achieved this
high-volume milestone of 10 million tickets with this valued customer."

Over the past 24 months, Identive has supported this Southeast Asia customer
with specialized singular and fanfold guest tickets across a range of printed
media, as well as printed contactless smart cards used for special memberships
and events. The tickets and smart cards are based on Identive´s Smartag antenna
and inlay designs, utilize PicoPass™ contactless memory card technology from
INSIDE Secure and are produced at Identive´s manufacturing facility in
Singapore.

"Our versatile, open-standards PicoPass contactless memory chips are ideal for
multi-purpose applications like the Identive contactless smart tickets because
they can manage up to 16 independent applications while ensuring their
individual security settings, and can store large amounts of data, including
high quality photographs, fingerprints, biometric templates, signatures and data
records.  We are excited to have them play such a central role at this popular
resort," said Bertrand Moussel, executive vice president for worldwide sales at
INSIDE Secure.  "INSIDE has worked very closely with Identive as our partner for
this project to help integrate PicoPass with the Smartag antenna designs, and
look forward to their continued success with this customer."
