Latest Acquisition By Tekgraf Extends Company Reach Into Canada And New England

Tekgraf, Inc., Acquires New England Computer Graphics

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 14, 1998-- Tekgraf, Inc., (NASDAQ: TKGFA - news)
announced today that it has acquired New England Computer Graphics (NECG), with
offices in Boston, Mass., and Toronto, Ontario, Canada, effective May 8, 1998.
NECG's New England- and Canada-based computer graphics technology distribution
systems will be incorporated into Tekgraf's Graphics Division operations.

Under the terms of the agreement, Tekgraf exchanged a combination of
unregistered Class A common stock and cash, subject to adjustment, for all the
outstanding common stock of NECG. NECG had 1997 unaudited revenues of
approximately US$6 million.

With this acquisition, Tekgraf will have an additional 7,000 square feet of
facilities, including training, technical support and sales facilities, plus
warehouses and demo centers to service New England and Canada.

"Tekgraf's acquisition of New England Computer Graphics is another step forward
in our ongoing commitment to maintaining a leadership role in the computer
graphics arena," said Phillip Aginsky, chairman of Tekgraf. "By providing a
solution to the growing opportunities in the New England area, as well as
Canada, our manufacturer-and reseller-partners can be assured that we are making
strategic decisions that continually put Tekgraf in a position to help them meet
their long-term business objectives."

Tekgraf's Graphics Division provides sales, marketing and technical support for
high-end computer graphics technologies through reseller channels. The
acquisition gives Tekgraf enhanced geographic reach into the New England Region,
including upstate New York, by adding more than 450 resellers to its expanding
network of high-end computer graphics VARs. In addition, the acquisition marks
Tekgraf's first expansion outside the U.S., strengthening its relationship with
resellers and extending its capabilities and services into Canada, benefiting
manufacturers looking to distribute throughout North America.

Currently, Tekgraf provides extensive reseller and manufacturer benefits based
on its eight strategically located product demonstration centers in Chicago, New
York City, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, and
Greenville, S.C. The acquisition of NECG adds two additional demonstration and
distribution centers and further enhances and extends Tekgraf's North American
network of trained salespeople who specialize in graphics technology solutions
and services offered through resellers.

exciting time for us," said Bill Rychel, Tekgraf Graphics Division president.

reseller partners mean we can enhance our value as a strategic and complete
resource."
