MegaChain.com New Web Site Reveals Potential Revenue Stream For ISPs

VANCOUVER, B.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 12, 1999--Tom Lavin,
president of MegaChain.com, Ltd., announced today that the Company's
long anticipated web site is now available for viewing by the public.

The URL is www.megachain.com. The 25 page site, in addition to explaining
the general principles involved in the MegaChain Client/Agent/ Shopper
interaction, addresses specific operational details of the Company's new
multi-level, email, advertising program.

Other site features include Our Company, How It Works, Offers and Deals,
Join the Program, Code of Ethics and a comprehensive Investor Relations
package. A special section of the site directed towards ISP's, List Brokers
and Large Organizations describes methods whereby previously untapped
revenue streams can be realized utilizing the MegaChain program.

Mr. Lavin was quoted as saying, "MegaChain has created a new Internet
software program that offers a dynamic and innovative alternative to the
declining effectiveness of banner ads. The product offers Agents [any party
with email access, including individuals, ISPs, List Brokers and Large
Organizations], the opportunity to earn commissions simply for passing
Client sponsored, incentive driven email to friends, acquaintances and
business associates."

He went on to state, "Current studies seem to indicate that email is
increasingly more effective than banner ads; email from a friend or
acquaintance is almost always read. MegaChain's unique, multi-level email
concept delivers personal advertising messages containing valuable Client
offers, with exponential power while completely circumventing the negative
aspects of spamming and banner advertising."

Other MegaChain products being developed will allow for revenues to be
generated via electronic catalogue sales, direct product sales and a
stand-alone' software suite for those vendors wishing to engage MegaChain's
multi-level, incentive driven advertising without having to resource services
outside their existing corporate information systems.

MegaChain's business is primarily located in Vancouver, British Columbia,
Canada. The Company's address is 34 West 8 th Avenue, Vancouver, British
Columbia, Canada V5Y 1M7, telephone 604 873-3388, fax 604 873-0674.

MegaChain.com is traded on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board under the
symbol "MGCN". For further information contact Tom Lavin at 604 873-3388.
