Press Release Body = On the 18th of June in Prague Gene Zarkin held a seminar at the
conference "Product Placement - new Era of Advertising", which was organized by the
international company MARCUSEVANS. Seminar on the topic of "How to minimize the risk
of wasting time and money while making investments in product placement" caused such
a huge discussion. Some part of the participants thought that maybe the technology,
which Gene was telling about, could supposedly break copyrights of famous brands'
owners, though there weren't any of legally correct arguments to it. Others told
that they could not even thought about recommending to customers performance of any
actions (in particular, conducting surveys) at a stage of preparation to realization
a product placement program as in this case they risk to lose the order in general.
The result of the discussion was told by the director of GSC GAME WORLD Company
Sergey Grushko who showed with all obviousness to the participants that the method
of reporting messages, which was told by Gene Zarkin, had already been successfully
used in practice by famous brands. For example, "Peugeot" used the principle of
positioning in product placement by opposition its own trade mark to "Mercedes" in
the "Taxi" movie. However, there weren't any claims from "Mercedes" Company. In
completion Gene Zarkin paid attention of all the participants to a fact that the
principle of comparison with something well known not necessarily should mean
comparison with other trade mark, so there shouldn't be any talks about infringement
of anyone's copyrights if the method was correctly used.

On the next day - 19th of June - the conference in Prague came to an end. According
to the analysis of the forms, which were filled in by the participants, the general
estimate for the quality of action was 9,2 points on a 10-mark scale that shows high
level of preparation and carrying out the conference "Product Placement - new Era of
Advertising" by MARCUSEVANS Company.
