OKLAHOMA CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 28, 2000

Lone Wolf Energy Inc. (Symbol: LWEI) announced it has signed a letter of intent to acquire Zenex Communications, Inc., a privately held business.

Under the terms of the agreement, which is an all-stock transaction, Zenex will become an independent business unit of Lone Wolf's. The acquisition is the initial deal brought to Lone Wolf by its recently appointed business development firm, Ensynq, Inc.

A switch-based provider, Zenex is tariffed as an interexchange carrier in 48 states and has worldwide terminating access. Zenex was incorporated in 1994 to take advantage of great opportunities in the rapidly growing telecommunications industry. In 1996, less than three years after it was incorporated, Metro 50 magazine named Zenex as the fastest-growing privately held company headquartered in Oklahoma City. It was named to be one of the five fastest-growing companies in 1997. In an important strategic move in 1998, Zenex accepted an offer from a major regional carrier and it advantageously sold its long distance business, which enabled it to reposition itself to be focused in high-profit targeted niches where Zenex has preemptive technologies.

Early in 1999, a private investor, Ricky Naylor, purchased Zenex. At that time, the company was in a rebuilding process following the sale of its long distance business. "There were other companies interested in purchasing Zenex for the tariffs alone. My interest in buying it was based on its great reputation and its great promise. Other reasons for my purchase were the strong assets of the company -- tangible and intangible -- including the tariffs, switching platform, and proprietary software," said Mr. Naylor. "Zenex has proven to be a good investment, and is now in the right place to perform well for Lone Wolf. When approached about selling Zenex to Lone Wolf to enhance its communications-based growth plan, I saw the wisdom in this strategy." Mr. Naylor, due to the acquisition, will become a large shareholder of Lone Wolf stock.

As proof of the wisdom of the repositioning move, thus far this year Zenex has experienced a strong increase in revenues compared to the same time period last year. Building on the solid foundation established in 1999, Zenex in the first-quarter 2000 has revenues in excess of $1,000,000, with a positive pre-tax cash flow in excess of $250,000.
