Leveraged Cluster Technology and Services to "Re-Define the

Economics of Delivering Enterprise Application

Software over the Internet"

NEW WORLD APPS officials today announced an agreement with Sun Microsystems (NASDAQ: SUNW), and UUNET (a unit of WorldCom), to co-sponsor three Executive Briefings for leading Software Developers on the opportunity to rewrite the economics of the enterprise software business by implementing centrally hosted and administered Internet Leveraged Clusters(TM).

The seminars will be held on June 20th in Vienna, Virginia, June 27th in Atlanta, Georgia and July 18th in Boston, Massachusetts.

Leveraged Cluster technology and services delivers on the economic promise of delivering applications over the Internet, by providing a robust enterprise software application for one hundred or more distinct corporate entities on one high availability cluster of servers.

In use today by TabWare OnLine, one of the leaders in the enterprise asset management (EAM) industry, Leveraged Clusters have the potential to rewrite the competitive landscape of a software market overnight.

"Bringing together the technology of three of the leaders in Internet application delivery will provide Software Developers with a rare glimpse at an opportunity to gain substantial competitive advantage in their markets by implementing Leveraged Clusters," said John Streeten, Chief Executive Officer of NEW WORLD APPS, Inc. "With a world-class network, the leading server technology and thin client delivery, a Software Developer can be up and running delivering their existing applications over the Internet in as little as six weeks."

Industry analysts are also evaluating the benefits of Leveraged Clusters.

"The concept of leveraged clusters has tremendous potential advantages over the existing model for application hosting," said Etan J. Ayalon, analyst for Jefferies & Company, New York. "Leveraged clusters give you high availability, which is critical for an ASP. If you lose a server in the traditional setup, people go offline. With the cluster, the customer gets redirected to another server immediately."

NEW WORLD APPS is an Internet Management Service Provider (MSP) that architects and provides ongoing management of leading-edge Internet delivery platforms for enterprise Software Developers and B2B E-Commerce developers and their partners.

Other strategic partners include Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL), RSA Security (NASDAQ: RSAS), Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN), and Compaq Computer Corporation (NASDAQ: CPQ). More information can be found at the Company's Web site, www.newworldapps.com, or by calling 703-714-9534.
