Wellstone Filters to Present at Moscow Trade Show DURHAM, N.C., Feb. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Wellstone Filters (OTC Bulletin Board: WLSF - News) announced that it is advancing its plans to distribute cigarettes with its patented filter in Eastern Europe. Wellstone Filters has been invited to present its revolutionary patented filter at the Moscow Archimedes Trade Fair to be held March 15 to 18, 2005 in Moscow, Russia. The Archimedes Trade Fair brings together parties from the high technology industry in Russia with representation from the business and the scientific community, including the Russian Academy of Sciences. Wellstone will be a keynote speaker at Archimedes and intends to arrange distribution and/or manufacturing of its cigarette brand in Russia. In Russia, the fourth largest tobacco market in the world, 70% of men and 30% of women smoke, with similar percentages for Ukraine and Belarus. Russian smokers are not brand loyal and there is ample opportunity for a new brand to earn market share. Wellstone believes that its patented filter formulation removes tars and certain carcinogens, with the aim of reducing smoking deaths, while providing better taste. However, any claim as to the benefit of any Wellstone cigarette to be sold will be made within the parameters prescribed by the Federal Trade Commission. Wellstone emphasizes that NO cigarette is safe. This corporate communication by Wellstone is not intended to induce any person to purchase future Wellstone tobacco products.
