HORIZONS TECHNOLOGY SIGNS NEW INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTORS FOR TRUEMOTION-S
SOFTWARE-ONLY VIDEO

New Distributors To Bring High-Quality Software-Only Video To Europe And
Israel

NEW YORK, New York, June 20, 1995, PC Expo Booth #357 -- In a move to
expand its international distribution, Horizons Technology, Inc. (HTI) has
signed five new distributors based in Europe and Israel to carry the
company's TrueMotion-S video compression software. The distributors, who
participated in an international reseller training on digital video held
at HTI's headquarters in San Diego, California, earlier this month, have
signed up as authorized HTI resellers of the new software-only video
compressor.

"We are pleased with the industry's response to TrueMotion-S software both
in the U.S. and internationally and look forward to working with our new
international partners in business," said Cynthia Mordaunt, vice president
of marketing for HTI. "The establishment of a strong channel in Europe and
Israel is essential to the expansion of TrueMotion-S technology and has
laid the foundation for an aggressive international channel development
program."

The new TrueMotion-S distributors include Multimedia Solutions, based in
Cork, Ireland and serving Ireland, Scandinavia and the United Kingdom;
Groupe Iepso, based in Paris and serving the French domestic market; DMJ,
based in Madrid and serving Spain; Holland-based CD-ONE B.V., and Koor
Communications Israel, based in Tel Aviv and serving Israel.

The announcement of these new distributors follows a recent announcement of
new distribution for HTI in the Japanese market. HTI recently signed
Fukuoka, Japan-based Expression Tools, Inc., a leading developer and
distributor of software products in Japan, to resell its entire line of
digital video and multimedia products including TrueMotion-S software and
HTI's Open!Info Manager multimedia authoring software.

TrueMotion-S Based On Intraframe Compression

Introduced in April 1995, HTI's TrueMotion-S compression software is priced
at $499 for either the Macintosh or Windows version. The software is based
on intraframe compression which, like analog technologies such as film and
video, provides creative professionals with access to each frame of video
for editing and playback. This ensures the highest level of creative
flexibility and the ability to enhance interactivity with VCR-like
controls such as fast forward and reverse.

TrueMotion-S is rapidly gaining acceptance as the outstanding alternative
to hardware assisted algorithms such as MPEG; and to other software-only
algorithms such as Indeo video or Cinepak because of its ease of
implementation, higher picture quality capabilities and cross-platform
support. TrueMotion-S was originally developed by the Duck Corporation for
dedicated applications such as the Sega game box.
