EDICT Systems, Inc. -- Company Summary.

Business Editors

DAYTON, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 17, 2000

Twilight Productions, Ltd. (OTCBB:TWIPE) is releasing additional information concerning its merger with EDICT Systems, Inc. and the status of its SEC Form 10-SB filing.

EDICT Systems, a wholly owned and sole operating subsidiary of Twilight was founded in 1990 to provide Electronic Data Interchange Consulting and Training (EDICT). In 1992, EDICT changed its focus to developing and marketing EDI software and services, a precursor to today's business-to-business electronic commerce. In 1996, EDICT added integrated bar coding applications to support industry initiatives combining electronic commerce data and bar-coded shipping containers. In January of 1999, EDICT began development of its Internet business-to-business electronic commerce solutions which were introduced to the market in October 1999 via the first vertical portal ("vortal"), www.GroceryEC.com.

www.GroceryEC.com currently supports the electronic commerce initiatives of Kroger, Fleming, Supervalu, C&S Grocers, Richfood, and Dillon Stores (including King Sooper, City Markets, and Fryes).

Support for other grocery retailers is production-ready and in various stages of testing. These retailers are Safeway, Albertsons, Winn Dixie, Meijer, Fred Meyer (including Smith's Food & Drug and Quality Food Centers), Randalls Food Markets (including Tom Thumb), Ralphs, and Piggly Wiggly. Support for all major grocers that have EC/EDI initiatives is scheduled to be completed within 6 months.

EDICT Systems is currently working on increasing grocery retailer support on www.GroceryEC.com, activating www.RetailEC.com (with bar coded container labels produced from the internet), and EnterpriseEC(TM).

EnterpriseEC(TM) is a value-added Internet e-commerce service that supports integration of e-commerce data into legacy systems. Electronic commerce data can be transmitted to and from EnterpriseEC(TM) using standard EDI software, or by using a free, secure FTP application provided by EDICT Systems. Regardless of the network used by trading partners, EnterpriseEC(TM) allows for a single electronic commerce connection using the Internet at significantly lower costs to the customer. EnterpriseEC(TM) is currently in beta testing with a 2nd quarter anticipated production date.

EDICT Systems has over 1,000 software customers (FORMULA_ONE(TM) and BCLM -- Bar Code Label Modules). Most of these customers use traditional Value Added Networks to conduct electronic commerce with their trading partners. It is anticipated that many of these customers will utilize EnterpirseEC(TM) due to a reduction of 50-75% off their current Value Added Network (VAN) charges.

EDICT Systems currently has 25 employees at its Dayton, Ohio facilities. Audited financial statements for FY99, reflect revenues of $824,443. Net loss for the year was ($46,692). The 4th quarter of 1999 began the transformation from the company's traditional business to the new rapidly growing Internet business-to-business electronic commerce solutions. Revenues from the traditional business products are decreasing as customers are shifting to the new Internet solutions.

Twilight's common stock is currently traded on the OTC Bulletin board. On May 4, 2000, Twilight's common stock will begin trading on the Pink Sheets as the company is not a "reporting" company under the Securities Act of 1934. Twilight has obtained the necessary audited financial statements and is now in the process of completing its Form 10SB Registration Statement to be filed with the SEC for the purpose of becoming a "reporting" company. Upon effectiveness of this registrations statement, the company can immediately apply for its common stock to again be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
