Dymo-CoStar, Dell and E-Stamp Launch New Internet Postage Promotion.

GREENWICH, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 3, 1999--

Dymo-CoStar, the world's leading manufacturer of desktop label printers, today announced a new marketing promotion with Dell Computer that enables online customers who purchase a DYMO(R) LabelWriter(R) at the Dell's Gigabuys site (http://gigabuys.us.dell.com/store/) to receive a free E-Stamp(R) Internet postage starter kit. The special promotion runs from December 1, 1999 to February 28th, 2000.

Under the arrangement, customers who buy a DYMO LabelWriter EL60 printer at the Dell's Gigabuys site will receive a FREE E-Stamp Internet postage starter kit that includes user-friendly software, an electronic vault (which securely stores the postage once it has been downloaded from the Internet) and a kit with documentation and labels--a $49.99 value. Using these products together, customers can easily purchase postage over the Internet and print it from their LabelWriter printer. The E-Stamp electronic vault provides a special, added convenience for PC users who wish to print out Internet postage without having to connect to the Internet every time they want to print a stamp or access their personal account information.

DYMO LabelWriter(R) printers, the first desktop label printers approved by the U.S. Postal Service for Internet Postage applications, make it simple to print address labels and Internet postage "stamps" without interrupting a user's laser or ink-jet printer to load envelopes or sheets of labels.

The printers are supported by the E-Stamp Internet postage service, and also come with their own easy-to-use labeling software to print all the other labels that PC users need around their offices. In addition, the printers integrate seamlessly with popular software applications such as Microsoft(R) Word, Microsoft(R) Outlook, GoldMine and ACT!

According to Andrew Newmark, Vice President of Marketing for DYMO, the joint-promotion with Dell and E-Stamp is a marketing milestone, merging the e-commerce strength of the world's largest PC maker with the DYMO LabelWriter, the first Label printer to be approved for Internet postage usage with the complete Internet postage solution from E-Stamp Corporation, the first company to sell Internet postage commercially.

"This promotion provides new LabelWriter customers with an efficient one-stop solution for their labeling and postage needs," says Newmark. "This turnkey package provides a great way to save both time and money, while presenting a more professional image in the small or home office."

"Through this promotion, we will continue to expand easy access to the E-Stamp Internet postage service to millions of small- and home-based business customers," says Robert (Bo) Ewald, president and chief executive officer, E-Stamp Corporation. "Together with DYMO and Dell, we are leading the way in demonstrating how customers can leverage technology to increase their productivity and efficiency, and grow their businesses."
