MATAWAN, N.J.--Jan. 19, 2006--Deep Field Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:DPFD) announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to merge with Beijing Sino-US Jinche Yingang Auto Technological Services Ltd. ("AutoMart"), the premier automobile after service company in Beijing, China. AutoMart is a China based joint venture recently formed between Beijing Silver Harbor Car Service Center and Mayflower Auto Group, LLC. The closing is subject to the completion of certain financing commitments for the post-merger Company and the approval of the government of China. It is anticipated that this transaction will close in the first quarter 2006. The merged company will continue to trade on the OTC Bulletin.

AutoMart was established in August, 2005,and invested by Chinese Party and American Party AutoMart is the first auto service joint venture created since China entered the World Trade Organization. AutoMart focuses on automobile after-sales services, including maintenance and repairs, insurance, parts sales, interior furnishings, care products, tires, and windshields.

Based on statistics issued by the municipal government of Beijing, there are currently about 2.3 million vehicles in the city of Beijing. The anticipated rapid increase of privately-owned vehicles, coupled with Beijing's preparation for the 2008 Olympics, has dramatically increased the demand for quality automobile maintenance services.

Mr. Pang Guisan, Chairman and President of AutoMart, stated, "We currently have 30 auto centers in Beijing, six of which are large centers. We expect to have 60 in Beijing by the first quarter of 2006. We are planning to set up more than 3,000 chain and franchise stores in major cities throughout China over the next five years. We anticipate that AutoMart will have sales in excess of $1.2 billion by 2011."

Previously, Mr. Pang served as a top government leader, overseeing thousands of state-owned companies. Mr. Pang was part of one of the first groups of government officials who left government for the private sector in 1980. Since then, Mr. Pang has successively served as a high ranking official at major corporations and served as the Deputy Chairman of the China Vehicle Association, and the Deputy Chairman of the Vehicle Service Association of China.

Jerry Mahoney, Chairman of Deep Field Technologies, further explained, "We are currently negotiating the financing required to enable Mr. Pang to aggressively expand AutoMart, and to make it the absolute dominant auto care company in all of China."

Mark Meller, CEO of Deep Field, stated, "Under the terms of the transaction, Auto Mart shareholders will hold 85% of the merged company, with the present shareholders of Deep Field Technologies retaining 15% of the merged company. China has approximately 80 million automobiles, and is growing rapidly. We believe the opportunity to partner with a company and management team as prestigious as AutoMart and Mr. Pang represents an enormous opportunity for our shareholders."
