ADVISORY...for Saturday (July 15)

--(BW SportsWire)


WHAT:       A charming six-year-old San Bruno boy Max Molini, will
            throw out the first pitch at this Saturday's San Francisco
            Giants game on behalf of Menlo Park-based iPrint.

            Max, who is afflicted with Cerebral Palsy, will receive
            autographed baseballs and will take photos with players
            before throwing out the game's first pitch.

            Tracy Molini, his mother, and Royal Farros, iPrint's
            chairman and CEO, will accompany Max.

WHEN:       Saturday, July 15, 2000
            Autographed ball presentation: Approx. 12:15 p.m.
            Max's first pitch: 1 p.m.

WHO:        Max's mother and sister play in local softball leagues,
            while Max serves as honorary batboy for his sister's team,
            The Pirates. His uncle was a star pitcher at San Mateo's
            Junipero Serra High School where he threw multiple
            no-hitters. Max enjoys watching Giants games on
            television, and although he has attended many Giants games
            at 3Com Park, this will be his first trip to the new
            Pacific Bell Ballpark. Max and his family live on the
            Peninsula.

            This opportunity is provided by Royal P. Farros, Chairman
            and CEO of iPrint, whose company is sponsoring Giants Cap
            Day. In addition to involving Max in the Giants game,
            iPrint will also dedicate a page of its Web site
            (http://www.iPrint.com) to Max, featuring a link to the
            Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health, where
            visitors can make donations to support the Hospital and
            related services. As the official sponsor for Giants Cap
            Day, iPrint will supply 30,000 iPrint batting practice
            caps to Giants fans the day of the game.
