DIDAX Inc. Signs Contract With Auto-By-Tel, A Major Internet Auto Purchasing Program; Internet Company Adds to Growing Revenue Stream

    CHANTILLY, Va., Nov. 21 -- DIDAX INC.
announced today that it has signed a contract with Auto-By-Tel, the largest
automobile purchasing program on the Internet. The agreement will permit Auto-
By-Tel to sell through the Marketspace on DIDAX's Christian Community
Network(TM) Web site, http://www.Christcom.net. This service is expected to be
available on CCN Marketspace in December 1997.
    Auto-By-Tel, headquartered in Irvine, CA, provides a one-stop shopping
source for consumers to buy, lease, finance, and insure new and used cars and
trucks via the Internet. Consumers can submit a free Purchase Request for the
vehicle of their choice which is then routed by Auto-By-Tel's Accredited
Dealers for a hassle-free, no-obligation, guaranteed price quote. There are
currently 2,600 Auto-By-Tel Accredited Dealers in North America.
    Financing and leasing is also available, as desired, through Auto-by-Tel's
relationships with Chase Auto Finance, GE Capital, Key Corporation, and Triad
Financing and insurance though affiliate, AIG.  Auto-By-Tel averages over
80,000 requests a month. The company was recently named the 4th Fastest
Growing New Small Business in America by Dunn and Bradstreet and Entrepreneur
Magazine.
    DIDAX, President and CEO, Dr. Robert Varney, in announcing the contract
said, "We are pleased to offer our community membership a great service that
permits them to purchase automobiles in an efficient and cost effective
manner. We will receive a fee from Auto-By-Tel for each request that is
submitted through our web site, adding to what we see as a growing revenue
stream for quality services provided. We are evaluating other quality-of-life
services that we can provide via the Internet to our membership in a similar
manner. Considering affinity marketing such as this is just one of our
potential revenue streams, others being advertising, retail sales, and
technology consulting to the Christian community, we believe both our
community membership and our revenues will ramp up significantly in the year
ahead. We believe the job DIDAX is doing in offering quality-of-life services
to the members of the Christian community is helping maximize the commercial
value of the Internet today."
    Auto-By-Tel President and CEO, Peter Ellis, said, "We're proud to be
working with DIDAX and their CCN Web site in bringing what we believe to be a
valuable and significant service to their community. We can help a CCN family
member make an informed, responsible choice with one of the largest purchase
decisions facing a family today."
