$2MM Asset Acquisition by Talk Visual of Eleven -11-
NY/NJ Retail Call Shops/Money Transfer Stores

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 26, 2000--(OTC-BB: TVCP). TALK VISUAL CORPORATION announced today that it has acquired eleven retail call shops/money transfer stores in the Greater New York/New Jersey area.

The asset-only purchase involved a $900,000 combination of cash and stock. The stores grossed approximately two million dollars ($2,000,000) last year, and the company anticipates exceeding this gross revenue substantially during the year
2000 - 2001 period.

Company President and CEO Eugene Rosov stated today "the acquisition of the assets of Various Business Management by Talk Visual gives us a powerful presence in a vibrant Latin community where telephone calls and money transfers occur constantly. We believe that the insertion of videocalling into these shops, along with well-controlled management, will generate substantial cash flow and, eventually, a meaningful profit for the Company."

Talk Visual's Chairman, Michael J. Zwebner, added "these new retail locations complement our existing retail locations in Boston/Jamaica Plain, Providence, San Francisco, Miami, Montreal, Vancouver and Toronto, as well as our overseas
sister-operations in Brussels, London and Tel Aviv.
Considering that nearly two billion dollars of money transfers occurred between the United States and the
Dominican Republic last year, and Latin America is the major phone destination for U.S. call originations, we believe that we can successfully introduce a vibrant new service - videocalling - to an existing and ever-increasing retail consumer group anxious for further family and business contact."
