Business/Technology Editors

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 16, 2000

Chequemate International Inc. (AMEX:DDD), doing business as C-3D Digital Inc., the world's first 3D television network and 3D Internet media company, announced today that Boston-based Dutchess Advisors, Ltd. initiated coverage of the Company with a buy recommendation and a 12-month price target of $36 per share.

Dutchess Advisors based its price target on C-3D Digital's key developments, including: "The recent licensing agreement with Trimark Pictures, a division of Trimark Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: TMRK); an equity investment from I-O Display, LLC a joint venture between Illixo, Inc. and Liberty Media Group (a division of AT&T; NYSE:T); the enrollment of additional cable system Telepro, a national DirectTV account, to provide distribution of the 3D Television Network to its subscribers; and the expected launch of the 3D.COM Virtual Reality Portal(tm) in June 2000.

"Dutchess projected future growth, stating, "Management is making all the right moves by licensing content, increasing distribution through the enrollment of cable systems, building its internal team of seasoned and highly skilled professionals while reshaping its Board of Directors. With the expected launch of 3D.COM VIRTUAL REALITY PORTAL(tm) later this year and the continued non-stop pace at which the C-3D Television Network appears to be moving, we believe puts C-3D Digital on the fast track. By capturing just 1% of both the U.S. cable and hospitality markets, together with Strata's current revenue, we project total revenues of $36 million in 2001 and applying a 7x multiple, we forecast a 12 month price target of $36 per share.

"The report noted particular growth in C-3D's Internet division 3D.COM, "We believe that 3D.COM is poised for explosive growth and may contribute up to as much as 25% of C-3D Digital's total revenues by 2003. The hidden gem here is the fact that 3D.COM also doubles as the self supporting, dynamic R & D arm of the Company.

"A comparative analysis in the report commented on C-3D's virtual lack of competition, "Although several companies currently offer 'simulated' or 'shadow' 3D e-tailing web sites, to date there are no known direct competitors of the Company involved in either stereoscopic "pop out" e-commerce or network broadcast of 3D programming to the home. Imax Theaters and Universal Studios currently offer a stereoscopic 3D experience within a controlled environment, but the viewer must make an actual paid visit to the venue in contrast to a 3D experience in the comfort of one's home, for a fraction of the cost. Nonetheless the rapid growth of these 3D outlets is only further evidence of the vast market potential that awaits those ready to service the public's insatiable appetite for new and unique virtual entertainment.
