DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 3, 2000

Airtech International Group, Inc. (OTCBB:AIRG) announced today the Company has completed a binding Agreement acquiring Southern Therapy Inc., an HME/DME (Home Medical Equipment and Durable Medical Equipment) Provider, (www.southerntherapy.com) and Scooter Nation, Inc., a full-service Retail Mobility Company, (www.scooternation.com). Both Companies are based in Austin, Texas.

Airtech CEO, C.J. Comu, stated, "The terms of the acquisition are favorable for the Airtech, Southern Therapy and Scooter Nation stockholders." Airtech is acquiring the Companies on a multi-year buyout with an exchange of stock based on a current valuation. The Southern Therapy management will be entitled to earn additional stock based on achieving projected sales and earnings goals. Comu added, "If the price of Airtech stock increases, dilution and shares will be substantially less." The financial impact to Airtech, from these combined business entities, will add approximately $6,291,600 in projected revenues with $1,536,400 in pre-tax earnings for May 31, 2001, subject to debt consolidation. Southern Therapy is forecasting $12,744,918 in Gross Sales for FYE 2002, while startup Scooter Nation is boasting a new financial pro forma for its first year sales revenue of $23,500,000.

Airtech President, R. John Harris, added, "Southern Therapy is a well managed and mature company with an impressive track record of selling high-end medical and respiratory products. The company has a number of great working relationships with Federal, State and Private Insurance carriers." Sales are principally made to qualified Medicare and private insurance beneficiaries through which the company accepts assignment of proceeds from Medicare and so-called Medigap and supplementary Insurance companies. Southern Therapy will be the lead provider of the new Airsopure Portable Medical Air Sterilizer to thousands of HME/DME's across the country.

Southern Therapy President, Calvin Cole, said, "The reason we consolidated Southern Therapy and Scooter Nation with Airtech was to position our Company in manufacturing, distribution and sales in the HME/DME arena, take advantage of exciting, new air sterilization products, and create an international franchise program for Scooter Nation. If our financial projections prove true, we will increase our business by 300%, which should excite the stockholders and analysts of Airtech."
