FILES FOR CHAPTER 11 PROTECTION
Pompano Beach, FL, August 16, 1996 -- Advanced Promotion Technologies, Inc.,
(OTCBB:APTZ), developer and marketer for the Vision Value Network /trademark/,
an electronic marketing and financial services network for supermarkets, today
announced that is has filed with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Florida for Chapter 11 protection under the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code.
The Company requires additional financing in the near term to continue
operations. The Company is currently engaged in an effort to obtain
Debtor-in-Possession Financing. The Company is unable, at this time, to
speculate on the impact of such filing to existing shareholders.
If adequate funds are not available in a timely manner, the Company's business
will be materially and adversely affected, and it will be forced to cease
operations. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be
available or, if available, that it will be approved by the bankruptcy court.
