COMPANY PRESS RELEASE HOQUIAM, WA – June 7, 2000: Dead End Street^SM is pleased to announce that it will be an Official Sponsor of the first ever electronic publishing convention, ReBA Con 2000, to be held June 17th and 18th at San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf Marriott Hotel.

Joining NuvoMedia Co-founder and CEO Martin Eberhard and Matt Greenwood, creator of the cross-platform Java-based Merlin and Jedi tools for the Rocket eBook, Dead End Street^SM CIO Ivan R. Black and General Counsel John P. Rutledge will sit on various panels and lead discussions on a wide range of topics, including copyright law, encryption technology, and the future of electronic publishing. Further, Dead End Street^SM author Michael Kellher will be discussing his choice to e-publish his incredibly marketable manuscript with Dead End Street^SM rather than traditional print publishers. Michael J. Vaughn will also be on hand to promote his phenomenal opera novel GABRIELLA’S VOICE.

"We are very excited to help build the electronic publishing industry, and we are confident that ReBA Con 2000 will be a watershed event for the field," comments Ivan Black. "Not only that," adds John Rutledge, "ReBA Con 2000 will act as a catalyst for expansion of Dead End Street.SM We’ve got several groundbreaking announcements to unveil during Summer 2000, and our ReBA Con sponsorship is just the beginning!"

Careful not to underestimate the importance of ReBA Con 2000 to the company, Mr. Black stated, "Dead End Street^SM flyers will be in the hand of every conference attendee. The Dead End Street^SM display table will be prominently located within the convention center. And, perhaps most importantly, the presence of our authors, company officers, staff and promotional street team will be extremely visible. We’re ready to distribute thousands of dollars of promotional merchandise. This will prove to be huge for the company."

When probed for the nature of the announcements to be made by Dead End Street^SM at ReBA Con 2000, Rutledge commented, "I’ll only say this – one of those "events" will be the unveiling of our new company logo, an incredible design by world famous artist Sean Simmans. You’ll have to attend the convention for details on the other announcements. I’m not ready to open my mouth about them… yet!"
