Philadelphia, Pa.—May 9, 2007

Day & Zimmermann, a leading national provider of products and outsourcing solutions for government and commercial customers, today announced that it will move its Philadelphia-based global headquarters from 1818 Market Street to the newly renovated and refurbished 1500 Spring Garden Street office complex. With 325 employees occupying 122,000 square feet on four floors, the offices will feature state-of-the-art computer training rooms, video conferencing capabilities, flexible work stations, sound-dampening technology, and more. Among Day & Zimmermann’s new neighbors at the building: CBS3, Independence Blue Cross, and North American Publishing Co.

“With this move, we have the opportunity to design modern, innovative offices that reflect Day & Zimmermann’s forward-thinking business focus,” says Hal Yoh, President and CEO of Day & Zimmermann. “Our surroundings will give our employees a comfortable, yet professional environment to continue and enhance the excellent services they offer to our customers each day. We are excited to take this next step in our company’s long and successful history, and become part of the significant growth and development in Philadelphia’s Spring Garden section.”

Day & Zimmermann’s specially designed office is slated for construction in July 2007. 1500 Spring Garden boasts several superior technological features—multiple electric power redundancies, enhanced fiber optic voice and data connectivity, and extensive rooftop ancillary equipment space among them—that greatly facilitate Day & Zimmermann’s high-speed communication needs.

1500 Spring Garden also incorporates all systems of a new Class A office building, including high ceilings, a 24-hour HVAC system, and entirely new elevators, windows, bathrooms, and fire and life safety systems for optimal comfort and security. In addition, the downtown location has easy access to public transportation and the highway, with extensive tenant parking availability on site and around the building, and a shuttle service, making commutes fast and direct for all Day & Zimmermann employees and clients.
