SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 22, 2002 -- iPrint Technologies, inc. announced today that it has come to an agreement in principle with MadeToOrder.com, Inc. (MTO), a privately held technology leader for business-to-business procurement of logo merchandise, with regard to the sale of substantially all of iPrint's assets. It is expected that the transaction, if consummated, will be structured as part of an assignment for the benefit of creditors under California law. In connection with this proposed transaction, iPrint has received a loan commitment from MTO for up to $1 million of which $750,000 has been advanced to date. The companies have also announced that they have agreed in principle to put in place an operating agreement which will contain a provision that MTO will guarantee iPrint vendor purchases which are shipped on or after August 26, 2002. The Company believes that the proposed transaction is the best available alternative that will allow the Company to return the maximum amount to the Company's creditors and will also allow the Company to continue to serve its customers without interruption. An assignment for the benefit of creditors, which is being used to facilitate this transaction, is a proceeding in which all assets of the Company are transferred to a trustee to be sold for the benefit of the Company's creditors, with any amounts remaining distributed to the Company's security holders. In connection with these agreements, iPrint has agreed that until the earlier of 180 days from August 12, 2002 or until the completion or termination of any transaction with MTO, neither it nor any of its affiliates or agents shall solicit, initiate, encourage or in any way facilitate any inquiry, proposal, negotiation or agreement from any other party concerning a possible merger, consolidation or other business combination involving iPrint or an acquisition of a substantial portion of iPrint's capital securities or assets, nor shall they take other actions inconsistent with the consummation of the proposed transaction with MTO. Certain officers, directors, and stockholders of iPrint have irrevocably committed to vote their shares, representing approximately 58 percent of iPrint's outstanding shares, in favor of the transaction.
