NEWGOLD, INC. Date: June 8, 1999 By: /s/Arthur Scott Dockter ------------------------ Arthur Scott Dockter, President EX-20 2 PRESS RELEASE PRESS RELEASE NEWGOLD, INC. ANNOUNCES 3 FOR 2 STOCK SPLIT Merger Partner Acquires Expanded Business-to-Business Internet Services, Fully Developed Medical Community CLARKSBURG, CALIFORNIA, USA, June 8, 1999 -- A. Scott Dockter, President and Chairman of Newgold, Inc. [NASDAQ OTC/BB: NGLD], is pleased to announce the authorization of a 3 for 2 split of its common shares, effective June 17, 1999. This transaction occurs prior to and in preparation for the 1 for 12 consolidation of the Newgold shares, to be effective upon completion of the merger between Comercis, Inc. (formerly Business Web, Inc.) and Newgold, Inc. This common shares split -- which applies to shareholders of record as of June 10, 1999 - is in conjunction with the acquisition of Netgate Medical, Inc. by Comercis. The $19 million acquisition will provide Comercis with technology and customers that will expand its business-to-business Internet services, as well as supply additional subscribers who should account for an incremental $1 million in revenue for 1999. "What the Netgate technology has done for the medical community, it can do for any of our current and future communities across multiple industry sectors," said Chris Meaux, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comercis. "These industry sectors include natural resources, dental, petrochemical, computer, consumer electronic and automotive. I expect to see each community grow dramatically as a result of this acquisition." With Netgate's technology, Comercis will be able to offer members of their vertical trade communities a single source, menu-driven intranet with extranet connectivity. This capability allows members to conduct secure communications for information sharing or commerce 24 hours a day, seven days a week with no networking hardware needed. Providing advanced communications capabilities, such as search engines and broadcast tools, trade communities will communicate with customers, peers and vendors like never before. Netgate's online medical community has been developed over the past three years of finely focused research and development to provide secure communications. Currently, it is comprised of over thirty interdependent healthcare and associated categories that include networked physicians, pharmacists, therapists, hospitals, insurance providers, pharmaceutical companies, medical suppliers and more. Netgate's technology links all these participants, allowing them to service their needs quickly and cost-effectively. For example, patients can use community search capabilities to find physicians. Doctors can share medical files with specialists. Surgeons can schedule appointments with patients, as well as set up their surgical schedule with hospitals. Hospitals can broadcast equipment needs to vendors and manufacturers anywhere in the world. The possibilities are endless, and they are not limited to the medical community.
