ALPHARETTA, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 9, 2000--Lahaina Acquisitions, Inc. (OTC BB: LAHA) (``Lahaina')

The Accent Group, Inc. today announced its proposed merger with Paradigm Mortgage Associates, Inc. of Jacksonville,
Florida is proceeding on schedule, with an expected closing within the second quarter ending March 2000.

Accent's CEO, L. Scott Demerau, said today ``Our due diligence is well underway. Paradigm, in the month of December,
originated in excess of $20 million of mortgage loan volume. When combined with our own internal rapid growth, we believe
this will lead to significant economies of scale and enhanced profitability.' Demerau also stated, ``The company continues to
make progress in its strategy of growth primarily through acquisitions, which clearly demonstrates that Accent will become a
leader in consolidating this exciting growth industry.'

Accent is also deeply committed to innovative E-Commerce Solutions to substantially reduce the turn-around time in the
mortgage approval process. Demerau stated, ``We expect to announce new technology applications in the near future that will
clearly demonstrate our E-Commerce strategy and its exciting innovations.'
