("Networks"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of Networks related to the satellite and FM delivery of data, to Cidera, Inc. ("Cidera"), a privately held Delaware corporation, for a purchase price of $12,000,000 in cash, $2,500,000 of Cidera's common stock, and the assumption of certain liabilities of Networks. The value of the Networks assets sold to Cidera and the amount and type of consideration paid were negotiated among the Company, Networks and Cidera. The assets sold to Cidera constituted approximately 33% of the Company's total assets and accounted for approximately 71% and 27% of the Company's total revenue and expenses, respectively, on a consolidated basis as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, and approximately 41%, 76% and 23% of such amounts, respectively, as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The Company expects to recognize a gain of approximately $2 million as a result of this transaction. The assets being sold to Cidera are not part of the Company's strategic focus for the future. The Company believes that this transaction will allow the Company to focus on its MediaXpress Internet media delivery business. Cidera also has become a preferred Original Equipment Manufacturer of the Company's MediaXpress service for Cidera's information provider customers. A copy of the Press Release issued by the Company on October 12, 2000 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
