Does anyone know how the hearing went today? This is regarding the appeal of the NASDAQ edict to delist YESS. Thanks.

I wonder if the recent increase in volume the past few days is in any way connected to YESS understanding that the key to profitability in the new millenium is the Internet. Just the mention of the company being involved in negotiations with a potential strategic internet partner would send the stock price up over $1 in one day. Some time ago, I e-mailed the company in this regard. I mean who really wants to spend time in Walmart or Toys-R-Us shopping for kids or grand-kids when we can buy and ship through the Internet and not have to wait in long lines. Any way, I think they might have some winners on their hands this Christmas season irregardless...

Company Press Release

YES! Entertainment Files Voluntary
Petition Under Chapter 11

Interim Financing Totaling $20 Million

PLEASANTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 9, 1999--YES! Entertainment (OTC BB: YESS)
today announced that it has filed a voluntary petition with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District
of Delaware in Wilmington under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. The Company also
disclosed today that Infinity Investors, Ltd. has agreed to provide a $20 million working capital facility in
connection with the Chapter 11 case. The new facility, which the Company anticipates getting approved by
the bankruptcy court tomorrow, will replace the Company's existing facility with Bank of New York and
provide YES! with significant additional borrowing capacity.

Mark C. Shepherd, Chief Executive Officer of YES! Entertainment, said, ''Operating in Chapter 11 will
allow the Company to implement its strategic plan and reach our ultimate goal, to return the Company to
profitability. In addition, the financing gives YES! the necessary resources to support and develop its
product lines and will help ensure that YES! will be able to reorganize as a going concern.''

The Chapter 11 filing stays creditors' claims while the Company develops its plan for emergence from
Chapter 11. YES! will continue to operate its business in the ordinary course during the duration of the
Chapter 11 case and anticipates emerging from Chapter 11 as a stronger, more viable competitor.

YES! Entertainment Corporation develops, manufactures and markets toys and other children's products,
including a variety of interactive products. YES! uses innovative technology to design products that are fun
for children and build on their natural creativity.

This press release includes certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results or events to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. Potential
risks and uncertainties include those contained in the Company's 10-K dated April 15, 1998 and
