February 8, 2001 Bend, OR......Access Equine Inc. announced today that it has reached agreement with a company in the United Arab Emirates for the export and distribution of it's new drug-free pain and lameness product, EquiMend, throughout the Middle East.

StableForce Trading, an established Dubai-based firm has acquired the exclusive rights to market EquiMend in Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates according to Access Equine Inc. president, Claudia Starr Alonso.

"We feel fortunate to have a company as well respected as StableForce Trading represent EquiMend in the Middle East. They are the primary supplier of select horse products for racing and equestrian activities in that region of the world.

The Middle East offers the richest single day of horse racing in the world in Dubai, with over $15 million in purse money offered. This area also has significant interest in endurance racing and show jumping. EquiMend is an ideal product for race or show horses with sore shins, strained tendons and a multitude of lameness problems. It provides on-the-spot pain relief and accelerates healing naturally."

EquiMend is an innovative self-activating invention that holds micro-currents within its patented cloth design and time-releases the treatment to the horse's injury over a 48-hour period, without the use of electrical connections, batteries, or drugs.

The product's technology was awarded the prestigious gold medal for best invention at the 35th annual World Trade Fair in Brussels. The new high-tech product can be used on horses before, during and after race or show competition. EquiMend works naturally within the horse's body to encourage healing. It does not mask the pain, but works to treat the cause of the pain. EquiMend was initially introduced to the horse industry in December 2000.

EquiMend is available from tack stores, turf goods suppliers, equine catalogs or from the Internet at www.equimend.com.
