Bentley Hospitality Exchange
Welcome to our newest partner - Ken Gasper. Ken has worked diligentley over the past six months to develop his hospitality exchange featuring over 230 hotels and B&B's throughout the USA, Canada, Mexico and a few European countries.

Bentley Commerce recentley struck a deal with Ken to purchase part of his company so that we could move its operations over to Bentley's on-line software platform. All 230 properties are now listed and available for booking using your trade account with Bentley Crump Barter!

In the next several weeks we will also be welcoming a new broker at our Nashua, NH office (to be announced shortly) who will be brokering the hotel accounts and handling all reservations for the Hospitality Exchange properties.

There will be no additional fees to exchanges to place bookings and no fees for this reservation service.

We are extremely pleased to be able to offer these properties to our affiliate exchanges and their members.

Additionally, plans are in place to expand the hotel network to 500 properties by the end of the year!

Hotel Resource - www.hotelresource.com
Just yesterday we closed what we intend to be a spectacular beginning to the future of barter. Bentley Commerce has launched two online barter exchanges for the 39,000 hotel and restaurant industry subscribers of the Ozean Group, the premier online resource for hotel and hospitality suppliers.

We received an inquiry from the Ozean Group requesting information on how they could introduce barter to their 39,000 paid newsletter subscribers and their web site visitors that total over 1,000,000 hits per month.

Within a matter of days we created a custom branded experience for The Ozean Group's initiative into the barter arena. Learning from past on-line exchanges, we realize that these clients must be brokered so as part of the initiative, Bentley will be managing the exchange for Ozean.

Look for many more exchanges in other industries such as furniture manufacturing, movie production, telecomm coming soon.

Moving Forward
There are thousands of associations, unique communities and other vertical markets where barter and trade can be introduced representing millions of potential clients. In utilizing the vBarter local branded and customizable technology, members of your trade exchange can view the products and services from all other exchanges all branded with your logo and local content.

Thanks to Bruce Kamm, Bentley's CEO, we have the most advanced trading system in the world. Bentley has budgeted an additional quarter million dollars to be invested over the coming year to enhance the software with even more features and functionality

Look for voice authorizations in a couple of weeks, and swipe card transaction technology coming very soon. This very important initiative will bring collaborative trading to all members of all participating exchanges, as your members will carry your branded trade debit card that they will use to purchase from members throughout the world.

Bentley Crump Barter Network Eliminates Interexchange Fees to Encourage More Trading Between Exchanges

Bentley Commerce Corporation (OTCBB:BLYC) has entered into an exclusive strategic alliance with Morgan Beaumont, one of the country's premier providers of stored value cards and interactive voice response solutions, to provide Bentley Commerce's network of 180 trade exchanges and their 50,000 trading members with debit cards, stored value cards, telephone transactions and member search capabilities.

"This is a major step in providing a universal transaction platform," said Bruce Kamm, Bentley Commerce's CEO. "Barter exchanges that participate in our Global Trade Alliance, and their members, will have a single debit card that will process both barter and cash transactions at the point of sale. Members of a participating exchange will be able to use their debit cards to make purchases from members of other participating exchanges throughout the world. This will break down barriers to trade. We envision Bentley Commerce becoming the barter equivalent to NYCE, Cirrus, Plus and other cash interexchange networks for the universe of companies participating in barter and trade through the Bentley Crump Barter Network of alliance exchanges."

Morgan Beaumont will develop and implement a multi-phase launch of real time transaction processing technology for Bentley, which will include voice authorizations, account balances, debit card trade purchasing branded with logos of participating exchanges, and stored value barter cards that exchanges will be able to use instead of printing restaurant scrip. In addition, the card can be used for gifts, employee rewards, sales incentives and giveaways. A future enhancement will add cash transaction capability.

The new Bentley Commerce Card will enable its exchanges and their members to process transactions using a Verifone card terminal. For members that do not have a terminal, transactions can be processed using a touch tone phone, with one toll-free phone number to call, 24/7, for purchase authorizations and transaction postings in the U.S. and Canada. Initially members will be able to process transactions, get account balances, and later on, search for hotels and restaurants by area code.

The Interactive Voice Response systems will allow members to access their account information from any telephone. Using Text to Speech and Speech Recognition technology, Bentley Commerce will provide complete voice access to member and account information. Other voice information capabilities will be added to the features available to participating members.

In Other News:

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--03/16/2004--Bentley Commerce Corporation (OTCBB:BLYC) the leader in online barter and trade, has appointed the first eight Corporate Trade Brokers in what it plans to be a worldwide network of independent brokers channeling potential transactions to its Corporate Trade Group. Corporate trade, an estimated annual $60 billion market, enables businesses to sell excess inventory or capacity at full value instead of at significantly lower liquidation prices.

"The worldwide independent broker network we are building will be the core to the success of our Corporate Trade Group," said Bruce Kamm, Bentley's CEO and head of its corporate trade activities. "We are recruiting business professionals who already have a wide sphere of influence and contacts in their respective fields. They have established relationships within the industries and communities we want to serve. We will equip them to recognize and assist companies that can materially benefit by trading their excess inventory and capacity at full value, rather than liquidating it for a fraction of its value or watch it merely devalue with time."

Bentley Commerce's first eight brokers have a broad range of business experience and contacts within industries that include: hardware and housewares; hotel, resort and hospitality; international manufacturing in Europe; healthcare, including pharmaceuticals and medical equipment; national and international real estate markets, including development, management and finance. Bentley expects to have between 40 or 50 brokers covering many industries and geographic areas by year's end.

Active business professionals such as attorneys, accountants, and insurers, as well as financial services companies and sales professionals are excellent candidates to become brokers for lucrative corporate trade transactions. It is especially attractive to independent business professionals or organizations, since it may enable them to double or triple their current annual income just by identifying several qualified potential transactions each year, while still focusing on their current profession.

Companies use cash equivalent trade credit earned from the sale of their excess inventory, production or capacity, to reduce their cash requirements in purchasing many of the products and services they need. This can include, but is not limited to: travel, printing, freight, warehouse materials, equipment, machinery, telecommunications (long distance, voice and data), media and advertising, etc. The purchase price for these items is at the same benchmark price that companies pay in an all cash transaction, but by utilizing current suppliers, vendors and the resources of the Industrial and Commercial Buying Consortium of Bentley's strategic partner, Intertrade Capital Group, the cash payment can be reduced through partial payment in trade.

EBay Uses Its "Currency" As Incentive & Enticement For Small Business Intersection

An eBay ad campaign aimed at small businesses, which began February 19 and runs through April 15, is titled "Dream Big!" At the center of the contest is a $50,000 business-shopping spree in the form of eBay Anything Points...the currency that can be spent on virtually anything on eBay.

To participate one must answer the question, "If I won $50,000, what would I buy on eBay to help my small business, and how would it make my business dreams come true?" The campaign promotes small businesses buying on eBay's main site as well as through www.ebaybusiness.com.

EBay is adding new services including equipment leasing and financing provided by Direct Capital, employment service through Monster.com, and integrated shipping through the U.S. Postal Service. Reportedly, eBay is finalizing a deal with a major partner to provide small business credit lines.

Bentley Commerce Forms Alliance With Technology Solutions Company To Further Goal Of Providing Universal Transaction Platform For Barter Industry

Bentley Commerce Corporation (OTCBB:BLYC) has entered into an exclusive strategic alliance with Morgan Beaumont, a global provider of stored-value cards and interactive voice response solutions.

They will develop and implement a multi-phase launch of transaction processing for Bentley including voice authorizations, account balances, and debit-card trade purchases with logos of participating exchanges.

Additionally, stored-value barter cards will be developed that can be used by Bentley's network of trade exchanges and approximately 50,000 trading members. (A stored-value barter card could be used for gifts, employee rewards, sales incentives and giveaways.)

The new Bentley Commerce Card will enable its exchanges and their members to process transactions using a Verifone card terminal. For members without a terminal, transactions can be processed using a touch tone phone and a toll-free number, 24/7, in the U.S. and Canada.

Although members will initially be able to obtain purchase authorizations and account balances, in the future a search for hotels and restaurants on barter, by area code, is anticipated.

Bruce Kamm, Bentley's CEO (www.bentleycommerce.com), declared, "Trade exchanges that participate in our Global Trade Alliance, and their members, will have a single debit-card that will process both barter and cash transactions at the point of sale.

"The cards can be used to make purchases from members of other participating exchanges throughout the world. This will break down barriers to trading, and is a major step in providing a universal transaction platform."

Kamm envisions Bentley Commerce becoming the barter equivalent to NYCE, Cirrus, Plus, and other cash interexchange networks for the universe of companies participating in the Bentley Crump Barter network of alliance exchanges.

Through the development of a seamlessly integrated family of online barter services, it envisions that most barter transactions can be handled over the Internet in real time, with its proprietary VirtualBarter software.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--04/20/2004--Bentley Commerce Corporation (OTCBB:BLYC), the leader in online barter and trade, is launching a new media trade marketplace with Cybertech Marketing Inc., a primary media resource for network TV, cable TV and broadcast advertising time, television production services, and the producer of the U.S.A. Shopping Network. The strategic alliance will make millions of dollars of wholesale media available for barter to members of participating exchanges in Bentley Commerce's global trade network.

"Media is a prime spending category for members of barter exchanges," said Bruce Kamm, Bentley Commerce's CEO. "A company can significantly reduce its cost of advertising by offering its own excess inventory, capacity and products for barter, and then using the trade dollars it receives to obtain media, with the majority of the investment paid in trade. Cybertech Marketing's aggregated buying power will enable us to offer substantially more media at significantly reduced cost. This helps reduce media expenses for companies that are members of our affiliated exchanges, to sometimes as low as 15 cents on the dollar."

Cybertech Marketing will offer media, production, the U.S.A. Shopping Network and related services, at heavily discounted rates on a part cash, part trade basis, as well as media buying assistance, to companies that are members of the exchanges in Bentley Commerce's global trade network. Member companies will be able to purchase media in the new trade marketplace for typically less than if they purchased the same media or services, either directly or from other agencies or media companies.

In addition, Cybertech Marketing will provide a U.S.A. Shopping Network program segment that will highlight Bentley Commerce's products, services, and travel offers. Bentley Commerce (www.bentleycommerce.com) will provide Cybertech Marketing with a preferred position in its global trade marketplace websites to list media inventory and production services available for purchase by members of its affiliated exchanges.
