WRN, with annualized revenues of $1.8 million, was acquired for $2.7 million.
WRN operates throughout southeastern Colorado under the name Rural Internet
Access and in Fort Collins under the name Info2000. The addition of WRN's
8,000 subscribers puts RMI.NET at more than 107,000 customers nationwide.

"This is a significant milestone in our industry and for RMI.NET. It was
achieved through the execution of our business plan, the excellent efforts of
our employees, and the loyalty of our customers," said Douglas H. Hanson,
chairman and chief executive officer for RMI.NET. "This acquisition will
immediately provide us with positive cash flow and will help us meet our
objective of cash flow breakeven in the fourth quarter of 2000."

Hanson added: "I am excited that Keith Goodwin, a co-founder of Rural
Internet Access and a leader in bringing new technologies to Colorado
schools, will remain with RMI.NET and head up our eastern Colorado strategy.
Because of Keith, Rural Internet Access and Info2000 have strong reputations
for quality service and customer care. RMI.NET will now be able to sell its
suite of e-commerce products to the WRN customer base."

Rural Internet Access and Info2000 merged in July 1998 to form WRN. RMI.NET
will now be able to offer these new business and residential customers
e-commerce applications; web solutions, including design, hosting and
marketing; and high-speed Internet access, including digital subscriber line
(DSL) service.

RMI.NET has acquired 15 companies since the first of year and 21 companies
since June 1998.
