BOX 8230 - CANTON, OHIO 44711-8230 ------------------ PROXY STATEMENT ------------------ ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS, APRIL 5, 1995 This proxy statement is furnished to shareholders of Diebold, Incorporated (the "Corporation") in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of proxies to be used at the 1995 annual meeting of shareholders to be held on April 5, 1995, at 10:00 a.m., local time, or any adjournments thereof, for the purpose of considering and acting upon the matters referred to in the preceding notice of annual meeting and more fully discussed below. This proxy statement was first mailed to shareholders on or about March 9, 1995. Shares represented by a properly executed proxy will be voted as indicated on the proxy. Shareholders may revoke the authority granted by their proxies at any time before the exercise of the powers conferred thereby by notice in writing delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation; by submitting a subsequently dated proxy; or by attending the meeting, withdrawing the proxy and voting in person. On February 28, 1995, the record date for the meeting, the outstanding voting securities of the Corporation consisted of 30,496,763 Common Shares, $1.25 par value per share, all of one class. Each shareholder of record as of the close of business on February 28, 1995 will be entitled to one vote for each Common Share held on that date. If notice in writing shall have been given by a shareholder to the President, any Vice President or Secretary at least forty-eight hours prior to the time fixed for holding the meeting that the shareholder desires that the voting for the election of directors shall be cumulative, and if an announcement of the giving of such notice is made upon convening of the meeting by the Chairman or Secretary or by or on behalf of the shareholder giving such notice, each shareholder will have cumulative voting rights. In cumulative voting, each shareholder may cast a number of votes equal to the number of shares owned multiplied by the number of directors to be elected and the votes may be cast for one nominee only or distributed among the nominees. In the event that voting at the annual meeting is to be cumulative, the persons designated on the proxy will cumulate the votes in accordance with their discretion. The results of shareholder voting at the annual meeting will be tabulated by the inspectors of elections appointed for the annual meeting. The Corporation intends to treat properly executed proxies that are marked "abstain" as present for purposes of determining 4 whether a quorum has been achieved at the annual meeting. The director-nominees receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected. Votes withheld in respect of the election of directors will not be counted in determining the outcome of that vote. Abstentions in respect of the appointment of the independent auditors will be treated as votes against that proposal. The Corporation does not anticipate receiving any broker non-votes at the annual meeting in light of the nature of the matters to be acted upon at the annual meeting. BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SHARES To the knowledge of the Corporation, no person beneficially owned more than 5 percent of the outstanding Common Shares as of December 31, 1994, except for the shareholders listed below.

- --------------- 1 Dividends are paid on restricted shares at the same rate as paid to all shareholders. As of December 31, 1994, the named executive officers held total restricted shares with values as of that date respectively, as follows: Mr. Mahoney, 24,300 shares ($999,338); Mr. Blair, 8,100 shares ($333,113); Mr. Morris, 9,000 shares ($370,125); Mr. Searle, 9,000 shares ($370,125); Mr. Warf, 8,100 shares ($333,113); Mr. Barone, 16,200 shares ($666,225). 2 The payouts reported for 1994 were based upon a management objective of cumulative earnings for the performance period of January 1, 1992 through December 31, 1994. The performance objective was met at the maximum amount, and the payout was in the form of a combination of cash and Common Shares. Pursuant to the terms of the plan, the management objective was adjusted because of the Corporation's recognition during 1992 of extraordinary expenses in connection with the implementation by the Corporation of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits other than Pensions". 3 The amounts reported for 1994 for Other Annual Compensation consist of amounts reimbursed to the named executive officers for tax liability on the following items: use of a Corporation automobile or cash in lieu thereof; supplemental executive life insurance; and financial planning services (for a sixteen-month period.) The All Other Compensation column presents amounts representing the dollar value of insurance premiums paid by the Corporation for the benefit of the executive and amounts contributed for 1994 under the Corporation's 401(k) Savings Plan, respectively as follows: Mr. Mahoney ($2,501, $5,808); Mr. Blair ($1,995, $5,808); Mr. Morris ($870, $6,896); Mr. Searle ($568, $5,808); Mr. Warf ($950, $5,975); Mr. Barone ($1,657, $5,808). The All Other Compensation column also includes an amount of $1,903 for preferential interest earned by Mr. Morris on compensation that he deferred in 1994. 10 13 4 Also includes compensation received as an officer of InterBold, a joint venture of the Corporation and the IBM Corporation. 5 On August 26, 1994 Mr. Barone retired as Vice Chairman of the Corporation but continues as an employee. As part of his agreement, Mr. Barone received his regular compensation and other benefits for the balance of 1994. EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE-IN-CONTROL AGREEMENTS The Corporation has entered into agreements with each of the named executive officers, and certain other executives, providing that in the event of any change in control of the Corporation through the acquisition of 20 percent or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Corporation, certain changes in the composition of the Corporation's Board of Directors, or by merger or consolidation of the Corporation into, or sale of substantially all of its assets to, another corporation, such persons would continue their employment with the Corporation in their present positions for a term of three years following such change in control. During such term of employment, each of the named executive officers would be entitled to receive base compensation and to continue to participate in incentive and employee benefit plans at levels no less favorable to him or her than prior to commencement of the term. In the event of the termination of such person's employment under certain circumstances after a change in control of the Corporation, such person would be entitled to receive a payment in the amount of approximately twice such person's prior base salary and to continue to participate in certain employee benefit plans for up to two years. None of the agreements will become operative until a change in control of the Corporation has occurred, prior to which time the Corporation and such persons each reserve the right at any time, with or without cause, to terminate his or her employment relationship. The Corporation has established trusts to secure, among other things, the payment of amounts that may become payable pursuant to these agreements and to reimburse such persons for expenses incurred in attempting to enforce the Corporation's obligations pursuant to these agreements and certain other arrangements. These trusts will be funded only in connection with or in anticipation of a change in control of the Corporation. The Corporation has entered into an employment agreement with Robert P. Barone governing the terms of his employment after his resignation as a Director and retirement as Vice Chairman of the Corporation effective August 26, 1994. The agreement provides for continuation of his salary through December 31, 1994 at the rate in effect prior to such resignation and at the annual rate of $50,000 thereafter until termination of the agreement on December 31, 1997. During the employment period Mr. Barone will be entitled to continue his participation in the Corporation's 11 14 applicable benefit plans, programs and practices, but will not be eligible for any new awards under the Annual Incentive Plan or the 1991 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan. In addition, the agreement provides that Mr. Barone will be entitled to receive an unreduced normal retirement benefit under the Corporation's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (as presently in effect) at age 60 calculated as if he had continued active employment until age 62.

- --------------- The table above presents information about performance shares awarded during the year pursuant to the 1991 Plan. Each performance share that is earned out entitles the holder to the then current value of one Common Share. Payouts of awards are tied to achievement of management objectives based upon specified cumulative levels of earnings for each performance period. The target amount will be earned for a performance period if the Corporation achieves 100% of the targeted earnings rate. No amount is payable unless the threshold amount, which is fixed at 84.8% of targeted earnings, is exceeded. The maximum award amount will be earned if the Corporation achieves 120% of the targeted earnings rate. Payouts may be made in the form of Common Shares, cash or a combination of Common Shares and cash as recommended by the Compensation and Pension Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. The awards provide for adjustments for extraordinary items upon recommendation of the Compensation and Pension Committee and approval by the Board of Directors. RETIREMENT BENEFITS The named executive officers and the other executive officers, including officers of InterBold, are eligible to participate in a qualified non-contributory defined benefit retirement plan ("Retirement Plan"). In addition, the named executive officers, the other executive officers and certain officers of InterBold participated in an unfunded non-qualified supplemental retirement plan ("Supplemental Plan"). The table below sets forth the estimated annual benefits for both the Retirement Plan and the Supplemental Plan upon retirement at age 62 to the executive officers who elect to retire and receive an annuity. The benefit amounts shown in this table are in addition to any benefits to which the participant might be entitled under the Social Security Act, and assume that the Supplemental Plan and the Social Security Act 13 16 continue unchanged and that one-half of each participant's anticipated Social Security benefit is $5,832 per year at age 62.

Benefit levels under the Retirement Plan are based on years of service (subject to a maximum of 35 years), final average compensation (which is an average of the Salary and Bonus as reflected in the Summary Compensation Table paid for the highest five consecutive of the last ten calendar years prior to retirement), and the participant's individually covered compensation based on year of birth under the Social Security Act. The Supplemental Plan provides a supplemental monthly retirement benefit so that a participant's total retirement benefit from the Retirement Plan and the Supplemental Plan, plus one-half of the participant's anticipated Social Security benefit, equals 65% (prorated for less than 15 years of service) of the participant's final average compensation received from the Corporation and InterBold during the highest five consecutive years of the last ten calendar years of employment. Compensation is defined for this purpose as salary plus bonus accrued for each such calendar year. For a participant who is employed by the Corporation or for InterBold for less than 5 full calendar years, the average would be based on the participant's compensation for his or her entire employment period. The Supplemental Plan benefits are payable at age 62 on a Joint & Survivor basis, if married and a single life basis, if single at retirement. In no case will less than 5 years of benefit be paid to the participant, his or her spouse and/or beneficiary, as applicable. Benefits are also available to participants electing early retirement at age 60 (on a reduced basis), who die or become disabled while employed, or whose employment is involuntarily terminated after completing 15 years of service. Reduced benefits (computed at a 55% of final average compensation, rather than 65%) are also available to a participant who voluntarily terminates employment after completing 15 years ser- 14 17 vice. Accrued benefits under the Supplemental Plan are fully vested and are required to be maintained in the event of a change in control of the Corporation. As of December 31, 1994, the number of years of service for the named executive officers is as follows: Mr. Mahoney, 12.6 years; Mr. Blair, 6 years; Mr. Morris, 4.1 years; Mr. Searle, 4.4 years; Mr. Warf, 13.3 years; and Mr. Barone, 23 years. Under an employment contract entered into September 20, 1978 and amended effective April 9, 1986, Raymond Koontz, who retired on April 5, 1988, receives retirement benefits of $150,000 annually reduced by any applicable amounts paid to him annually under any retirement plan in effect for the benefit of participants. On April 8, 1987, the Corporation entered into a supplemental retirement benefit agreement with Robert W. Mahoney. Upon termination of Mr. Mahoney's employment with the Corporation, the Corporation will pay Mr. Mahoney a supplemental retirement benefit equal to the difference between (a) the benefit he would be entitled to receive under the Retirement Plan if his years of benefit service under the plan were increased by eleven years, and (b) the actual retirement benefits he is entitled to receive under the Retirement Plan. The estimated annual benefits payable to Mr. Mahoney upon retirement at normal retirement age under this agreement would be $18,866 per year. COMPENSATION AND PENSION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The Compensation and Pension Committee (the "Committee") is composed entirely of non-employee directors. The Committee's principal functions are to establish base salary levels, to determine and measure achievement of corporate and individual goals for the named executive officers and other executive officers under the Annual Incentive Plan, and to select the participants, measure achievement of objectives and determine the awards under the 1991 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan (the "1991 Plan"). In addition, the Committee reviews any proposed changes to any benefit plans of the Corporation such as retirement plans and 401(k) Savings Plans. The Committee also oversees and reviews the pension plan investments for the Corporation's pension plans. The Committee's recommendations are subject to the approval of the Board of Directors. The Committee believes that the compensation for the named executive officers and the other executive officers should tie individual compensation to the performance of the Corporation. From time to time the Committee reviews studies prepared by independent compensation consultants and meets with them to review such studies when necessary. In 1994 the Committee and/or the Chairman of the Committee met 15 18 several times with an outside consultant to do a complete re-evaluation of the executive compensation program. This re-evaluation included a review of compensation policies of companies similar to the Corporation in size and industry and included those companies with which the Corporation competes for talented executives. Due to the unique character of the Corporation's business, the companies selected for this purpose would not necessarily include any of those companies reflected in the Corporation's performance graph. The survey data used for review of compensation policies are based upon companies that are similar in size and lines of business as the Corporation. The studies reviewed surveyed many companies but did not identify any by name. Some or all of the companies in the peer group used in the performance graph may have been included in the compensation studies used by the Corporation, based on the reported lines of business and market capitalization reflected in the surveys. The Committee received the final results from the consultant in early 1995, and incorporated the appropriate recommendations in its final review of 1994 compensation. In addition, the Committee receives information periodically on compensation policies from the consultant. The Committee believes its present compensation programs are competitive with those offered by companies similar to the Corporation. In general, the Committee believes that the base salary should be set below median, and the total compensation should be at or above the median when the Corporation meets or exceeds its expectations and below when it does not. The Committee believes that total compensation should have a greater proportion variable and dependent on the overall performance of the Corporation. The Corporation has three basic elements in the compensation for its executive officers. These elements are (a) base salary compensation, (b) annual incentive compensation, and (c) long-term incentive compensation. These elements of compensation recognize both individual and corporate performance. Annual incentive compensation provides incentive compensation which optimizes rewards for performance over a shorter period of performance while long-term incentive compensation optimizes rewards for performance over a longer term with an achievement of cumulative earnings usually over a three-year period. BASE SALARY COMPENSATION The base salary for all executive officers is reviewed annually, and the Committee's review process continues throughout the year. This review includes an analysis of past and expected future performance of the executive officers, as well as the responsibilities and qualifications of the executive officers individually and the performance of the Corporation in comparison with companies similar to the Corporation. The base salaries established for 1994 were consistent with the Committee's compensation policy noted above of generally setting base salary below median. 16 19 ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION The Annual Incentive Plan ("Incentive Plan") recognizes the performance of the named executive officers, other executive officers and key managers who contribute to the Corporation's success. These participants have the greatest impact on the profitability of the Corporation. In general, the participants with the most significant responsibility have the greatest proportion of their cash compensation tied to the Incentive Plan. The performance criteria, which are described in more detail below, reflect a combination of corporate operating profit, net of minority interest, and specific individual goals and objectives. At the beginning of each year, the Committee establishes annual performance goals for the Corporation which are based on operating profit, net of minority interest. The performance goals include threshold, midpoint and maximum amounts for achievement, with the midpoint being 100%. The Committee established the threshold level for 1994 at a level that required the Corporation to exceed the operating profit achieved in 1993 before any payout could occur. At the same time the Committee reviewed, amended and approved individual personal performance goals and objectives for the named executive officers and other executive officers. The Incentive Plan is generally weighted 50% on the Corporation achieving its operating profit goal, and 50% on the achievement of the individual goals and objectives. No Incentive Plan compensation is paid if the Corporation does not achieve at least the threshold amount of its operating profit goal even though an individual may have achieved his or her personal goals and objectives. At the end of each year, the Committee reviews the performance of the Corporation and achievement of the personal goals and objectives by the named executive officers and other executive officers. The Committee then reviews its findings and recommendations with the Board of Directors. In 1994 the Corporation exceeded its maximum performance goals, the individual goals of the executive officers were generally met at slightly less than the maximum amount, and the executive officers received Annual Incentive Compensation accordingly. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION The 1991 Plan affords flexibility in the types of awards that can be made for a long-term period. In particular, certain awards tie the individual's performance to the performance of the Corporation. No stock options or stock appreciation rights have been granted to the named executive officers since 1989. Instead, the Committee has recommended the granting of longer-term incentive awards in the form of performance share grants. The Committee believes this form of award motivates the executive officers to perform on a long-term basis, which furthers the goals of the Corporation 17 20 and increases shareholder value. In certain instances, stock options have been granted to certain other executive officers. In 1994 the Committee recommended performance share grants for the named executive officers, and certain of the other executive officers for the three-year performance period of January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1996. Prior to recommending the grants, the Committee reviewed the performance, together with the responsibilities, of the executive officers. The performance share grants were generally determined by the level of responsibilities and the performance of the executive officers. These executive officers have the greatest impact on the profitability of the Corporation. The management objective for this performance period will be measured for the entire performance period on a cumulative basis. There will be no earnout unless the earnings goal is achieved for the three-year performance period. Payout of any awards will be based upon achievement of a threshold amount of 84.8% of the management objective and the maximum payout will be earned if 120% of the management objective is achieved. These grants also provide for an adjustment due to extraordinary items at the discretion of the Committee and subject to the approval of the Board of Directors. The Committee believes these awards motivate individual performance and increase shareholder value because achievement of corporate financial goals on a cumulative basis over an extended period must be met before any earnout occurs. The Committee believes that an example of this expected result is shown in the most recent earnout for the three-year cumulative performance period of January 1, 1992 through December 31, 1994. The Committee had recommended and the Board of Directors had approved a very challenging objective for this performance period. Management performed well and as a result, the earnout was at the maximum amount. Performance share grants have generally been issued instead of stock options and restricted stock as the principal form of equity incentive for the Corporation's executive officers during the last four years. No restricted share awards were made in 1994 to the named executive officers. However, restricted share awards were made in 1994 to certain other executive officers who were not previously awarded performance share grants, but were included in such grants when the program was expanded in 1993. These awards in 1994 were made on the basis of their 1992-93 performance against their goals and objectives. The restricted share awards will provide an equivalent compensation program for these executive officers until they achieve their earnout of performance shares under the relevant performance period. All rights to the restricted share awards are forfeited if the executive officer terminates employment voluntarily or in the event of termination for cause before the end of a three-year period. 18 21 CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION The chief executive officer, a named executive officer, participates in the three elements of compensation previously discussed for the other executive officers. In setting the base salary compensation for the chief executive officer for 1994, the Committee considered a number of factors. These included an evaluation of his experience and performance in relation to the performance of the Corporation. As stated previously, the Committee believes that individual compensation should be tied to the performance of the Corporation so that a higher portion of total compensation is attributable to incentive compensation. In addition to the Corporation's performance goal based on operating profit, the chief executive officer's individual performance relating to annual incentive compensation for 1994 was measured by achievement of specific personal goals and objectives. In 1994 he earned annual incentive compensation slightly less than the maximum amount. He received this amount because the Corporation's financial results during the year met the principal predetermined goals, including revenues, earnings per share, operating profit and return on equity, and because he met or exceeded expectations in specified non-financial areas. Other specific goals and objectives established for the chief executive officer included order levels and new business development. With respect to long-term incentive compensation, the chief executive officer was granted a performance share grant in 1994 covering the performance period of January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1996. As stated previously, any earnout of shares will be based upon achievement of a threshold amount of 84.8% of the management objective and the maximum payout will be earned if 120% of the management objective is achieved. The estimated payout for the chief executive officer is 2,363 shares at threshold, 9,450 shares at target and 14,175 shares at maximum. For the performance period of January 1, 1992 through December 31, 1994, the chief executive officer earned 14,175 shares, which was the maximum amount. The Committee believes the chief executive officer's compensation is commensurate with his experience, his performance and the performance of the Corporation. COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL TAX LEGISLATION Federal tax legislation enacted in 1993 generally precludes the Corporation and other public companies from taking a tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1 million which is not performance-based and is paid, or otherwise taxable, to the named executive officers. The Committee has reviewed this federal tax legislation several times. Certain awards were made prior to February 18, 1993 and are not 19 22 covered by the new legislation. Based in part on this fact, the Committee has determined that it is highly unlikely that compensation under the Corporation's existing programs would be affected by the new limitation during 1995. The Committee expects to continue to monitor the impact of this legislation in future years. The foregoing report on 1994 executive compensation was submitted by the Compensation and Pension Committee of the Corporation's Board of Directors and shall not be deemed to be "soliciting material" or to be "filed" with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") or subject to Regulation 14A promulgated by the Commission or Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The names of the Directors who serve on the Compensation and Pension Committee are set forth below: William F. Massy, Chairman Donald R. Gant John N.

21 24 RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS KPMG Peat Marwick LLP acted as the Corporation's independent auditors during the past fiscal year, and has so acted since 1965. On the recommendation of the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors, and subject to ratification by the shareholders, the Board of Directors appointed KPMG Peat Marwick LLP to examine the accounts and other records of the Corporation for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1995. The Board of Directors will present to the annual meeting a proposal that such appointment be ratified. Should the shareholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Board of Directors will reconsider its selection. KPMG Peat Marwick LLP has no financial interest, direct or indirect, in the Corporation or any subsidiary. A representative of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to respond to appropriate questions. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS. EXPENSES OF SOLICITATION The cost of soliciting the proxies will be borne by the Corporation. In addition to solicitation by mail, some of the Corporation's directors, officers and employee associates, without extra remuneration, may conduct additional solicitations by telephone, facsimile and personal interviews. The Corporation will also enlist, at its own cost, the assistance of banks, bankers and brokerage houses in additional solicitations of proxies and proxy authorizations, particularly from those of their clients or customers whose shares are not registered in the clients' or customers' own names. Brokers, bankers, etc., will be reimbursed for out-of-pocket and reasonable clerical expenses incurred in obtaining instructions from beneficial owners of the Common Shares. It is estimated that the expense of such special solicitation will be nominal. In addition, Georgeson & Co., Inc., New York, New York, has been retained to assist in the solicitation of proxies for an estimated fee of $7,000. 22 25 PROPOSALS OF SHAREHOLDERS Proposals of shareholders intended to be presented at the 1996 annual meeting of shareholders must be received by the Secretary of the Corporation no later than November 9, 1995 for consideration for inclusion in the proxy statement and form of proxy for that meeting.
