GOTO I filled a limit at 24 .... we'll see .... cross your fingers it does a RAZF .... Friday June 18, 4:45 am Eastern Time Company Press Release GoTo.com Announces Initial Public Offering PASADENA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 18, 1999--GoTo.com (Nasdaq/NM:GOTO - news) Friday announced the initial public offering of its common stock on the Nasdaq National Market trading under the symbol GOTO.

GoTo.com has created and operates an online marketplace that introduces consumers who search the Internet using keyword terms to advertisers who have bid in an ongoing auction for priority placement in the search results for those keywords. Each advertiser pays GoTo.com the amount of its bid whenever a consumer clicks on the advertiser's listings in the search results. Advertisers must pay for each click-through, so they bid only on keywords relevant to their offerings. Consequently, GoTo.com offers consumers quick, easy and relevant search results while providing advertisers with a cost-effective way to target consumers. Consumers access the GoTo.com search service at the company's Web site and through its Search Syndication Network, a network of Web sites that have integrated the GoTo.com search service into their sites or that direct consumer traffic to GoTo.com's site. A copy of the prospectus relating to this offering may be obtained from Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, 277 Park Ave., New York, N.Y. 10172, 212/892-3000. The underwriters in the offering have undertaken to inform purchasers on confirming sales calls of the actual number of shares being sold in the offering and the actual per share price, and will further inform such purchasers that this is a material change from the maximum number of shares of 5,750,000 at an offering price between $11-$13 that was disclosed in the June 7, 1999, preliminary prospectus previously circulated. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
