BusinessWire, Tuesday, February 23, 1999 at 09:34

NORTHFIELD, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 23, 1999--ARTRA GROUP
Incorporated (NYSE:ATA) today agreed to acquire through a new Holding
Company, entrade.com and a 25% interest in asseTrade.com, Inc. from
WorldWide Web NetworX Corporation (OTC BB:WWWX) for 2,000,000 shares
of common stock and $5.4 million of funding. The acquisition is
subject to the approval of the shareholders of both companies.
entrade.com is a business-to-business Internet e-commerce and
on-line auction company focused on providing asset disposition
solutions for the utility industry and large industrial manufacturing
sectors.
It owns proprietary e-commerce and on-line auction technologies,
which it utilizes to create on-line Business Communities and virtual
distribution centers for the purchase and sale of corporate investment
assets including inventories, products and services. entrade.com's
initial target niche is the multi-billion dollar utilities industry
through its website, utiliparts.com.
asseTrade.com was established by three principal groups, two of
which are industry leaders in traditional asset recovery and disposal
methodologies. Henry Butcher and Michael Fox International, Inc. are
ranked among the world's leading asset evaluation, recovery, disposal
and consulting companies, with more than 150 years of combined
experience and expertise. The principal business of asseTrade.com is
the development and implementation of comprehensive asset/inventory
recovery, disposal, remarketing and management solutions for corporate
clients through state-of-the-art Internet electronic business
applications, including on-line auctions.
asseTrade.com's initial array of services will be to provide
asset recovery and inventory management solutions to corporations by
facilitating the movement of assets within internal corporate units,
auctioning assets on line through community-based web sites and/or
client specific venues, optimizing vendor and distribution channels
that require extensive asset tracking requirements and the general
cataloguing, listing and selling of assets through defined industry
sector community websites.
