Company Press Release SOURCE: EMB Corporation EMB Corporation Acquires TRAkkER Corporation for Internet Growth COSTA MESA, Calif., Nov. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- James E. Shipley, President and CEO of EMB Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: EMBU - news) announced today that EMB Corporation, and TRAkkER Corporation has entered into a formal letter of intent whereby EMB will acquire TRAkkER. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Mr. Shipley said, ''EMB Corporation is a holding company that engages primarily in the mortgage banking business, and as such originates, purchases, sells and services mortgage loans. The Company's key strengths have been processing, diversity of products, customer service, state-of-the-art technology, a strong management team, with the ability to adapt to changes easily and quickly and innovative effective marketing. TRAkkER Corporation has recently developed proprietary state-of-the-art technology for the Internet as well as for our V.I.P. (Video InteractiveMortgage Process) Solution used in conjunction with Intel® Corporation's ProShare™ Business Conferencing 500 System.'' Mr. Shipley went on to say, ''We expect explosive Internet growth with this new proprietary software from TRAkkER. It provides delivery, analytical and underwriting methodologies that enables the consumer to accomplish the loan process easily and with minimum redundancy and errors. It will also allow EMB to seek strategic alliances with major Internet providers.'' EMB Mortgage is currently licensed in 30 states with 15 pending approval. With this new Internet cutting edge loan origination/underwriting technology, and EMB's marketing expertise, EMB Mortgage could double its present business in the near future. EMB Corporation has forecasted net revenues for fiscal year 1999 of approximately $12.3 million before taxes. At the present time, the company has approximately 9.5 million shares issued and outstanding and approximately 3.6 million shares in the float. Management's experience and implementation of strategy gives EMB controlled yet aggressive growth. Byron Baldwin, President of TRAkkER Corporation said, ''TRAkkER Corporation's primary software product TRAkkER, was ''Built by Mortgage People, for Internet Consumers & Mortgage People.'' TRAkkER's technology has many of the characteristics and duties normally associated with that of a loan office, processor and underwriter. The true secret of TRAkkER is that it requires no mortgage industry knowledge by the user. TRAkkER is further outfitted with the ability to print standard mortgage documents, including RESPA disclosures. A loan, which used to take 24 to 72 hours to process and underwrite, can now be approved in less time than it takes to brew a pot of coffee. We look forward to our association with EMB, a company that has a vision for the future.'' EMB Mortgage Corporation uses the cutting edge technology of Intel® Corporation's ProShare™ Business Conferencing 500 System, along with the Company's own proprietary interactive video conferencing software, the V.I.P. (Video InteractiveMortgage Process) Solution to originate home loans from any location in the United States to one of EMB's National Processing Centers.
