Corniche Group Inc. Officially Opens E-commerce Website; Let the Online Ribbon-Cutting Festivities Begin! Company Website www.warrantysuperstore.com is Completely Operational.

EULESS, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 30, 1999--

The Corniche Group (OTC BB:CNGI), an e-commerce company providing affordable service plans conveniently and directly to the consumer, has officially opened its website doors Friday at www.warrantysuperstore.com.

"It is not acceptable anymore in today's exploding e-commerce marketplace to simply state we offer unique online products or services," said Bob Benoit, executive vice president and COO of Corniche. "The latest Neilsen NetRatings show that of the 16.1 million web surfers, the average session lasts 30 minutes. In that time, only five sites are normally visited. We intend to ensure that the warrantysuperstore will be included in one of those sessions with our extensive advertising and merchandizing plan."

The Corniche Group's formula at www.warrantysuperstore.com:

o The customers choose the plan that is right for them. "You pay

for the protection you need. No longer are you obligated to

choose service plans that you either can't afford or don't

entirely want," Benoit said. o Complete Online Transaction. There are no phone calls to make.

Simply follow our step by step instructions to purchase a

service plan. "We'll send your contract directly through e-mail,

via a secured connection." o Price. With its premiere service, the Corniche Group is the first

to offer automotive service plans that are at a 60% savings

compared to retail service plans offered by other online sites. o Affordable, Convenient Service. "Even in the online world I'm a

stickler for customer service," Benoit said. "It's been a company

priority that this site be extremely customer friendly and fast

so the consumer can save time, yet still receive the security and

safety of knowing that the buying process is secured by VeriSign,

the leading provider of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and

digital certificate solutions used by enterprises, websites, and

consumers to conduct secure communications and transactions over

the Internet and private networks."

Each service plan varies depending on the consumer needs. The automotive service plans are currently available in thirteen states, with expectations of expanding that service to other states within the next 30 to 60 days, as well as providing service plans for home-based products, including home office equipment and electronics.
