facturer must meet certain quality and safety standards," stated Mr. Drew, UPTREND Corp.'s CFO. "We are pleased to announce that the manufacturer selected uses not only the highest quality leather but also adheres to the strictest safety and quality control standards."

The "AirVest" is the most revolutionary product to hit the motorsports industry since the helmet. An innovation in high quality safety gear, the AirVest acts as a wearable airbag in the event of an accident, helping to protect the rider's chest and back from impact. AirVest is lightweight, inflates in milliseconds and is reusable. AirVest is also comfortable and stylish.

The initial purchase order consists of 600 leather and 600 nylon dernier vests, and product delivery to UPTREND shall occur by July 31, 2004. The leather and nylon vests will be initially available in adult sizes small through double extra large.

UPTREND has begun marketing the AirVest products to more than 30,000 motorcycle retail stores. In addition, the Company is enrolling online motorcycle apparel and aftermarket storefronts that consist of millions of retail buyers to help accelerate product awareness and drive online sales.

UPTREND believes that with more than 12 million motorcycle riders in the U.S. alone and the fastest growing segment of new riders coming from the "Baby Boomers," the conditions for introducing an innovative and stylish safety product to this industry have never been more advantageous.

UPTREND is a holding company consisting of innovative products offering substantial growth opportunities. UPTREND Corp. intends to leverage both its management experience in sales and business operations and the proven track record of its partners.
