Monday March 27, 9:08 am Eastern Time Company Press Release fourthchannel Selects Exodus to Host Its ASP Operations COLUMBUS, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 27, 2000--E-commerce Applications Services Provider (ASP) fourthchannel today continued to strengthen its Internet commerce offerings by announcing it has teamed with Exodus Communications(TM), Inc. (Nasdaq:EXDS - news), a leader in complex Internet hosting and managed services.

Exodus will also provide security, data backup, and monitoring services to fourthchannel customers, enabling fourthchannel to offer its customers greater bandwidth with unmatched reliability and security. ``Exodus provides fourthchannel with a first-tier hosting enterprise,`` said Jonathan York, fourthchannel`s chairman and CEO. ``This new, robust hosting environment gives our mid-sized customers the same environment for their e-commerce solutions as Fortune 500 companies have built internally.`` This agreement also gives fourthchannel a unique advantage over competing firms. ``ASP hosting makes e-commerce for the mid-market both possible and profitable,`` York added. ``Leveraging Exodus` hosting strength makes fourthchannel`s profitlaunch(TM) the most robust ASP e-commerce solution for the mid-market.`` ``fourthchannel is providing a much-needed service to its customers by offering them the ability to `rent` the profitlaunch e-commerce solution through ASP deployment,`` said Ellen M. Hancock, president and CEO of Exodus. ``But with the growing complexity of Web sites, managing the explosive growth of Internet ASP operations is neither the most efficient, nor most cost-effective use of the company`s internal resources.
