HOMERUN !!!!! Wednesday June 23, 9:02 am Eastern Time Company Press Release International FiberCom Announces Design- Build Agreements With AT&T Broadband and Internet Services Initial Projects in San Francisco, Denver Areas PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 23, 1999--International FiberCom Inc. (Nasdaq/NM:IFCI - news) and its Chairman and CEO Joseph P. Kealy Wednesday announced that IFCI will provide AT&T (NYSE:T - news) Broadband and Internet Services (''AT&T/BIS'') design-build services for the upgrade of its cable systems. Initially, IFCI will take on portions of AT&T/BIS's cable upgrade projects in the San Francisco Bay and Denver areas. Under these agreements, IFCI will be an essential contractor for AT&T/BIS. IFCI plans to use these contracts as an opportunity to further leverage its relationship with AT&T/BIS.

It fully validates our mission -- to provide full solutions and multiple services, to be a complete 'one-stop shop' for our customers in the telecommunications marketplace.''
