INTERNET SPECIALTIES WEST ACQUIRES COMMUNITY ISP -- NCPLUS.COM OF VENTURA…

Westlake Village, CA June 11, 1999 – Internet Specialties West (www.iswest.com) Ventura’s leading Internet Service Provider, today announced its acquisition of NCPlus, known as (ncplus.com), a local community based Internet Service Provider (ISP).

ISWest said it completed the acquisition for an undisclosed amount of Cash and Terms. "This acquisition is our third since 1998 and continues to show that ISWest is the leading ISP in Ventura County," says Drew J. Kaplan, Vice President and Director of Sales and Marketing.

The full terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed, but what is known is NCPlus customers will be moved over to ISWest’s booming Ventura Facility. This will include all dial up and server co-location customers. Billing will continue under the NCPlus name for a period of time until the companies choose either a new name or use ISWest as the main company. This acquisition will reduce the overhead of NCPlus by 50%, making smart financial sense for both companies.

What this means to the customers is improved customer support, more enhanced Internet products/services and Internet Specialties West continued commitment to provide customers with the best the Internet has to offer.

As giant Internet companies such as America Online (NYSE:AOL) and Netscape, Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO), Infoseek Corp. (NASDAQ:SEEK) continues to consolidate, so are the privately held smaller companies like ISWest.

If you have any questions or would like any other information concerning this acquisition please contact Drew Kaplan 818-735-3000 x103 or e-mail him at drewk@iswest.net. Internet Specialties West, Inc. (www.iswest.com) is a privately held Corporation located at 31194 La Baya Dr., Suite 100, Westlake Village, CA 91362.
