SBT and SAQQARA Provide Complete Internet Commerce Solution

SBT's WebTrader Now Integrated With SAQQARA Step Search

SAN JOSE, CA-APRIL 30, 1996 -Today's businesses can now create product
catalogs intelligent enough to update themselves with a few simple mouse
clicks - and take orders over the World Wide Web. SBT's Internet Division
and SAQQARA Systems today announced that its electronic storefront and
transaction package, WebTrader, will integrate with SAQQARA System's Step
Search, an online catalog authoring and publishing tool. The combined
product can be used by retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers - anyone who
wants to sell products over the World Wide Web.

Creating and updating a catalog is easy. Product information and prices are
loaded into the Step Search database via a spreadsheet created from the
WebTrader Inventory files. WebTrader monitors inventory items in real
time, and with a few more mouse clicks automatically adds or deletes new
or obsolete items. Businesses can choose to have the updates occur at
specified intervals, such as daily or weekly.

"Imagine an electronics manufacturer who sells more than 50,000 separate
parts," said David Haris, president of SBT's Internet Division. "their
paper catalog costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to produce in
quantity - and its out of date before it comes off the press. With Step
Search and WebTrader working together, the catalog is always current, and
always available to millions of buyers."

WebTrader also encrypts credit card numbers and other sensitive data, so
customers are protected.

"Linking a live database to the World Wide Web is a quickly growing trend
for commercial transactions and communications. Step Search offers
customers an easy and quick search method to explore product information
databases as well as valuable online assistance in the selection process,"
said Don Swenson, President and COO of SAQQARA Systems.

Step Search for Windows NT sells for $695.00 and can be purchased directly
from the company. SAQQARA's Step Search enables companies to create a
cost-effective and easily maintained catalog delivery system to
communicate directly with customers. Customer implementations and
demonstrations of Step Search can be seen from the company's web site at
www.saqqara.com.

WebTrader is the most widely-installed application that allows businesses
to create an electronic storefront with order forms for products or
services on the Web. It automatically processes the orders and sends the
customer confirmation via e-mail. WebTrader initiates and completes the
sales process by providing a direct, instantaneous connection between
vendor and customer.

WebTrader has a suggested retail price of $1,295 and can be purchased
through SBT Internet Business Consultants who install and configure
WebTrader and provide clients with the SAQQARA Step Search system. IBCs
can customize and modify the WebTrader application to accommodate a wide
range of business models.

System requirements for WebTrader users are minimal: A 486 66Mhz or higher
computer, 12 Mb of RAM, an account with a major Internet provider, Windows
3.1 or higher, a 14.4 modem, and an Internet mail connection.
