Egghead.com Shareholder Meeting Adjourned
Until November 19, 1999
VANCOUVER, Wash., November 4, 1999 -- Egghead.com, Inc. (Nasdaq:EGGS), today
announced that its shareholder meeting, held on November 4, 1999, to consider
its proposed merger with Onsale, Inc., has been adjourned until November 19,
1999, to allow for additional time for shareholders to cast their votes.
The company noted that in excess of a majority of outstanding shares has
already voted in favor of the merger and less than two percent has voted against
it. However, an affirmative vote of two-thirds of outstanding shares is needed
to authorize the proposed merger because Egghead.com is a Washington State
corporation.
"While we are pleased that more than half of our shareholders have already
voted in favor of the merger, and that more than 97 percent of all votes cast
have been in favor, additional votes are needed because Egghead.com is

incorporated in Washington state which requires a higher threshold of
shareholder approval for mergers than many other states," Egghead chairman and
CEO George Orban said.
The meeting will be reconvened at 11:00 a.m. on November 19, 1999, at
Egghead.com headquarters in Vancouver, Washington.
