VANCOUVER, B.C., June 23, 1999. AlphaTrade.com wishes to announce that our second module, the streaming video portion of the E-Gate Financial Portal is ready for commercial applications on the Internet. Unlike Realplayer ™ (RNWK), or Windows Media Player ™ (MSFT), our streaming video requires no plugin's or compression downloads. AlphaTrades' technology allows the video to stream with unparalleled resolution, interaction and audio seamlessly over the Internet.

AlphaTrade plans to revolutionize the Net-Vision experience for advertising and streaming media over the Internet with TV like quality commercials and other applications. There is a generation of Net users that are smart, sophisticated, and mostly bored with the traditional content available on the Internet today. In order to capture their attention and keep their interest, there must be a blend of education, entertainment, advertising and interaction. With this in mind, AlphaTrade's over-riding philosophy for our technology is to create products that can be used on the Internet of today, not just for the broadband widths of tomorrow.

Although Phase I of our video is released only for the consumer or corporate executive with high-end computers (Pentium II ™ min) and sophisticated Cable, ISDN, ADSL or T1 connections, Phase II of our new codex, due to be released in Q4 this year, will require only a fraction of today's bandwidth requirements.

AlphaTrade has the first streaming video of this size and quality that requires no plugin's or downloads and is capable of coordinating and controlling actions within the rest ( the non-video portion) of the browser.. In other words, our streaming video is a true multi-media interactive experience totally in synch with the video.

About AlphaTrade AlphaTrade.com (OTCBB: EBNK) is an Internet-based company developing "Web-to-desktop" convergence technologies. The AlphaWare line of applications designed and deployed by AlphaTrade offer computer users endless business and personal program choices, delivered via a nimble, thin client platform in their browser.
