DVBS' Spin-off Venture Successfully Completes Initial Financing

January 31, 2000 - Los Angeles, CA -- Digital Video Broadcast Systems Inc. (NQB:IMVC), announced this week that Interactive Multimedia Advertising Inc. ("IMA"), has successfully completed its initial round of funding. Texas-based IMA is DVBS' first spin-off venture from its Business Development Division.

IMA provides a service that combines the stability of traditional print advertising with the dynamism of today's e-commerce marketing. The innovative streaming audio and video technologies of DVBS give IMA a solid advantage in this highly competitive industry. Barnett's Harley Davidson and El Paso ReMax Realty have already been secured as clients.

The financing was achieved when Raystar Enterprises Ltd., a publicly listed company on the Canadian Venture Exchange (V.RYA), acquired all issued and outstanding shares of IMA, on January 07, 2000. Raystar issued 1,600,000 common shares to the shareholders of IMA at a deemed price of CAN $.25 per share. These are subject to escrow restrictions in accordance with the terms of an escrow agreement entered into among Raystar, IMA's shareholders, and the registrar and transfer agency. These shares will be released from escrow based upon the cash flow performance of IMA. The acquisition of IMA served as Raystar's qualifying transaction as a venture capital pool company, under the policies of the Vancouver Stock Exchange (now under the Canadian Venture Exchange).

Raystar also completed a private placement of 2,000,000 units at a price of CAN $.52 per unit, with Haywood Securities serving as selling agent to raise gross proceeds of CAN $1,040,000.

Hal Hemmerich, Raystar President/CEO, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of IMA, which is also comprised of Michael Carlin (IMA President/CEO), Michael Meyer, and Lisa Hardesty.

Interactive Multi-Media Advertising plans to use its strong cash flow position to: expand its publishing operations, continue development of its website and database, broaden its client base, and expand operations into other North American cities.

IMA has a Publications Division and a Web Site Division. According to public statements released by Barnett's Harley Davidson, the dealership's Web site is already experiencing over one million users per month and producing an average of US$1 million per month in gross revenues.
