fine.com SCHEDULES SHAREHOLDERS MEETING DATE TO VOTE ON MERGER WITH ARIS
CORPORATION; ACQUISITION AGREEMENT TERMS AMENDED

BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 5, 1999--ARIS Corporation (Nasdaq:ARSC)
and fine.com International Corp. (Nasdaq:FDOT) today announced that fine.com has
set a date for its shareholders meeting to approve the proposed merger with
ARIS. The vote is scheduled for Aug. 31, 1999.

ARIS and fine.com today filed a registration statement and proxy statement with
the Securities and Exchange Commission describing the transaction. Under the
terms of an amended merger agreement, ARIS has agreed to pay fine.com
shareholders ARIS common stock or ARIS common stock and cash equal to $4.5531
per share of fine.com stock. The ratio of ARIS stock to cash will continue to
depend on the average closing price of ARIS common stock during a period of ten
trading days ending on the second trading day before fine.com's shareholders
meeting to approve the transaction.

A copy of the proxy statement/prospectus describing the transaction can be
obtained from Timothy J. Carroll, Executive Vice President of Finance and
Operations, fine.com International Corp., 1525 Fourth Avenue, Suite 800,
Seattle, Washington 98101, toll-free telephone 877/346-3266.

The amended terms continue to value fine.com at approximately $12.25 million,
but reduce the maximum amount of cash ARIS would pay to approximately $3.0
million from $5.25 million. The amendment also eliminates the possibility that
fine.com shareholders will receive less than $4.5531 per share of fine.com
stock.

The consideration to be paid by ARIS will be calculated as follows:

ARIS will issue up to .3717 shares of ARIS common stock. If the value of .3717
shares of ARIS stock is less than $4.5531, then ARIS will pay the difference in
cash up to $1.115. If the value of .3717 shares of ARIS stock plus $1.115 in
cash is less than $4.5531, then ARIS will issue additional shares of ARIS stock
sufficient to result in a total value of $4.5531 per fine.com share.

By way of example, if the average closing price of ARIS stock during the ten day
measurement period is $7.50 per share, fine.com shareholders would receive .4584
shares of ARIS stock and $1.115 cash per fine.com share. ARIS would issue
approximately 1,233,000 shares of ARIS stock and pay approximately $3,000,000 in
cash.

The following table shows the number of shares and deemed value of ARIS stock
and the amount of cash (if any) fine.com shareholders would receive based on
different assumed average closing prices for ARIS stock during the 10 trading
day measurement period.
