IRT Industries, Inc. Signs Letter of Intent With Thinkbid.com, Inc.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 4, 1999--IRT Industries, Inc. (OTC BB:IRTG), announced today it signed a Letter of Intent to acquire award-winning Thinkbid.com, Inc. (http://www.thinkbid.com), a leading online Internet person-to-person auction web site where buyers and sellers auction items such as computers, hardware, software, televisions, electronics, collectibles, gifts, jewelry, and books.

Thinkbid.com is significantly different than other online auction sites because it charges a nominal fee only after an item is sold. The Company believes this is extremely important to not only wholesalers and retailers who list entire product lines, but to individuals who list entire households of items, without having to pay up front charges. Other auction sites charge up to $4.00 just to list an item for sale.

Thinkbid's management has strategically positioned the Company to capitalize on the explosive growth of online Internet Commerce similar to Amazon.com (Nasdaq:AMZN), Lycos (Nasdaq:LCOS), Excite (Nasdaq:XCIT), Infoseek (Nasdaq:SEEK), Ebay, Inc. (Nasdaq:EBAY), America Online (NYSE:AOL) Yahoo! (Nasdaq:YHOO), and Ubid (Nasdaq:UBID).

Thinkbid.com is developing its own Internet search engine and also plans to broadcast live auctions over the World Wide Web using a unique free software package entitled Auction Alive based on the software professional stock traders use to trade on the stock market. (http://www.thinkbid.com/live.htm).

IRT Industries is pleased with the signing of this Letter of Intent with Thinkbid.com because it positions itself within one of the most profitable sectors of the stock market with one of the hottest, progressive, and imaginative companies on the Internet.

IRT Industries, Inc. and Thinkbid.com, Inc. presently are in the process of due diligence. The companies anticipate a closing within thirty days.
