Business Wire ~ February 11, 1998 ~ 12:66 am EST

BURBANK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 11, 1998--B.A.T. International (OTC:BAAT) succeeded again in achieving
very high fuel efficiency in a field trial of a Geo Metro four-door sedan equipped with a 1.5-liter Yanmar diesel engine modified
with B.A.T.'s proprietary Dolphin Pulse Charge technology.

Three field trial segments of 50 miles each were run at a constant speed of 40 miles per hour on a two-mile oval track at
California Speedway in Fontana, Calif. The individual test results were 91.5, 94.5 and 95 miles per gallon.

A chief engineer from Ford Motor Co. sent a representative from the Advanced Vehicle Engineering Department of the
University of California, Riverside, to evaluate field-test results. Mr. Heffel of UC Riverside agreed to certify the results.

Also discussed at the track were plans for possible future testing, including dynamometer tests at the UC Riverside facility.
Dates and times for dyno tests will be announced in future releases.

B.A.T. International's president, Joseph LaStella stated: "We are extremely happy with the field tests today because it confirms
we can get further improvements in fuel efficiency in two independently certified sets of tests. We are very excited about
moving forward with further certification and discussions on technology licensing."
