Press Release

WWA Group, Inc. (OTCBB: WWAG) today announced the acquisition of a minority interest in an equipment and project management company operating a major limestone mining project in the United Arab Emirates.

On December 31, 2006, World Wide Auctioneers, Ltd. (“WWA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of WWA Group, Inc., acquired a 32.5% interest in Power Track Projects FZE in exchange for $1,500,000 and a secured non-interest bearing loan to Power Track, in an amount of up to $850,000, to be repaid within 180 days of closing.

Power Track is a licensed equipment and project management company that is currently managing a project for the government of Ras Al Khaimah, U.A.E., to excavate over 25 million tons of limestone through 2010. The process of removing the limestone is equipment intensive utilizing earthmoving and support equipment working with three crushing machines capable of producing over 10,000 tons of crushed aggregate per day. Limestone removed from the site is marketed regionally as processed aggregate, quarry run and armor stone. Power Track intends to expand operations to include washed sand and concrete batching in the near future.

“WWA plans to work closely with Power Track’s management to ensure the successful completion of this enormous project,” commented Eric Montandon, CEO of WWA Group. “We believe that the aggregate business will continue to grow with the constant expansion of major construction projects in the U.A.E. and the Gulf region. Like our recent entry into the shipping business, Power Track’s equipment intensive business is a prudent fit with our core equipment trading business, operates in our target region, and is projected to be very profitable. WWA’s investment in Power Track is timely and properly meets our declared criteria for expanding our business.”
