Hi, I'm Tom, the founder of Aqua Vie Beverage Corporation.

Aqua Vie's national radio campaign is programmed to begin airing on Tuesday July 21st on Business News Network, and its nearly 200 affiliates. The spots feature numerous targeted lifestyles that have become the most enthusiastic consumers of Aqua Vie's Hydrator product line, including women of all ages, children, athletes, the "all natural" contingent, and the very large and growing demographic of consumers whose threshold of individual health awareness includes recognition of the importance of personal hydration. The campaign will be unusually aggressive, exceeding 10 spots per day, seven days a week, nationally.

Simultaneously, we will be initiating a very innovative retailer awareness program, whereby shareholders and consumers can take part in driving the intensity of the retail awareness of Aqua Vie's products for the areas in which they live. This program will be unveiled on Aqua Vie's "Consumer Relations" page at the web site on Monday July 20th. I believe this program will have a very powerful impact on all markets, greatly enhance the radio advertising and add a powerful thrust to the velocity of product placements in retail outlets presently under development by the Company. And, I think it will be kind of fun, putting all you guys to work.

Go Aqua Vie

Company Press Release

Ubarter.com Secures Advertising Agreement With DoubleClick

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 15, 1998--Steven White, President and CEO of International Barter Corp. (IBC) (OTC:IBCX - news), the parent company of Ubarter.com, an Internet e-commerce site, announced today an advertising agreement with DoubleClick (NASDAQ:DCLK - news).

The agreement gives IBC the exclusive banner ad for the keyword ''barter'' on the search engines AltaVista, Look Smart and Northern Light. The agreement also secures the position of Ubarter.com in several sections of the leading travel-site, Travelocity.com.

White stated, ''We are aggressively aligning ourselves with the top portals to exclusively dominate areas where barter is accessed. Key words are a powerful tool to capture our target audience and I believe key words are the best Internet inventory available. In addition to the engines mentioned above, IBC now controls the inventory available for the keyword 'barter' from Lycos, Excite, Netscape Netcenter, Infoseek and Webcrawler.''

White added, ''The travel category of Ubarter has great potential for a substantial amount of activity. We have aligned ourselves with the largest on-line travel booking web-site on the Internet, Travelocity. Travelocity receives over 40 million page views per month and we will access a share of that exposure.''

In addition to the search word advertising, IBC is finalizing negotiations on several other Internet properties, in addition to DoubleClick, Travelocity and other leading portals.

IBC is the first company to blend the world of business to business barter with the mass consumer market via the Internet. The new site, www.ubarter.com, is scheduled to launch on July 20, 1998. Consumers or businesses may browse or post offerings to the site 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. No account is necessary to browse the products and services offered and the clients pay a 2%-3% fee when both parties agree to the transaction.

Additional information on IBC may be obtained via their website at: www.ibinc.com. To order an Investor Relations package please call: 1-800/292-7812
