Hi Roman,

first of all, it is #+END_EXAMPLE, not #END_EXAMPLE

For export it then works fine.  To avoid the interpretation of
"* Part 1" as a headline inside Org-mode, quote it like this:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
,*****************************************************************************
,* Part 1
,*****************************************************************************
bla, bla, bla
#+END_EXAMPLE

If you use "C-c '" to edit snippets like this, the quoting is automatic.
