LEADER TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES POWERMERGE 2.5 RELEASE DATE

October 15, 1994 -- Newport Beach, California - Leader Technologies Inc.
announced today the features that will be included with the release of
version 2.5 of PowerMerge, its industry leading file synchronization and
online backup program for the Macintosh. PowerMerge 2.5 is expected to
available to the end user and reseller channel by the first week of
January, 1995.

Nelson Greenwood, Vice President of Marketing for Leader Technologies said,
" we have had a very large number of requests for certain features that we
have incorporated into this upcoming release, two of which are the native
PowerPC version, and the ability to schedule synchronization. We think
these new features will make PowerMerge more versatile and will utilize
the power of the new Macintoshes." New features of PowerMerge 2.5
include:

Native Mode for Power PC- PowerMerge 2.5 will be a native version for the
Power Macintosh.

Automatic Time Operation- With its new scheduling features, users can set
PowerMerge to automatically synchronize designated Macs at a desired time.
These features allow the user to schedule updates one time, on a repeating
schedule, or at repeating intervals throughout the day.

Automatic Synchronization and Backup Upon Volume Mount- PowerMerge 2.5 can
be set to automatically synchronize and backup preselected files, folders,
or disks upon mounting of a particular disk volume. Users with
transportable disk drives will find this invaluable when carrying data
from one location to another.

Multiple Document Selection For Deletes- Users can select any number of
files for the purpose of deleting them directly from the PowerMerge
window.

Multiple Root Documents in a Single PowerMerge Setup Document- Multiple
Macs can be synchronized across a network in a single step. This will
allow system managers to select a single folder or disk on the server, and
have its contents synchronized with multiple Macs on the network. This is
very useful when multiple Macs need to be updated at once, such as when a
new version of a software program is released.

Other features in this release include:

* Drag and Drop Operations From the Finder to PowerMerge Windows
* Increased Support for Archiving
* Increased Status Information

The suggested retail price of PowerMerge 2.5 is $149.00. Upgrades to the
new version are available to registered users for $34.95. Leader
