Preventative Technology Enables Brand Safe Display Strategies for Premium Brand Advertisers

NEW YORK, May 25, 2010 - AdSafe Media, the rating standard of online media, today announced a
partnership with iCrossing (news.icrossing.com), a global digital
marketing agency, to provide preventative brand protection for clients across
all online display advertising campaigns.

AdSafe's Brand Safety Firewall ensures that only ad placements compliant
with brand guidelines and insertion orders are served. AdSafe technology will
enable iCrossing to execute brand safe display advertising campaigns for
their premium brand advertisers, while maximizing the reach and efficiency of
campaign spend.

"Many of our clients have invested heavily in innovative display tactics
- including search and site retargeting and social targeting - as part of
their overall performance display marketing programs," said Dax Hamman, vice
president of display media at iCrossing. "Still, any display tactic that
includes media bought from media exchanges carries with it an increased risk
of aligning the brand against unfavorable content. With AdSafe, we see a way
to combine innovation with preventative protection for display advertising."

"iCrossing has a proven track record of developing relationships between
consumers and brands across digital channels. This partnership allows
iCrossing to continue to drive these connections while maintaining the level
of brand safety and protection that is demanded by brand marketers,"
commented Kent Wakeford, Co-Founder and EVP of AdSafe.
