To serve new and existing clients, Savvis will add approximately 10,000
square feet of raised floor space to its Cermak Road facility in downtown
Chicago. The data center will subsequently feature 200 watts per square foot
of power.

The expansion serves growing demand from financial customers interested
in hosting their trading applications in close proximity to major derivatives
markets via Savvis. Customers can also connect to the facility with
world-class Ethernet network services, using Savvis' Exchange Express
service.

Savvis' expanded Chicago facility will encompass approximately 30,000
square feet of raised floor and enable access to key execution venues, such
as the CME Group, among others. It will also serve as one of the global
delivery points for the Thomson Reuters Hosting Solution, which is initially
being offered in six Savvis data centers (announced October 5, 2009).

The expanded facility offers a full portfolio of technology-agnostic
managed hosting and network services, including colocation, virtualized
utility services and managed security services, in addition to proximity
hosting. Customers will also be able to take advantage of Savvis' Application
Transport Network (ATN), which enables optimized network performance,
scalability and delivery.

"Chicago is an important financial center, and we are pleased to meet
existing demand and expand our proximity hosting and IT infrastructure
services on East Cermak," said Varghese Thomas, global head of financial
services for Savvis. "The financial services industry is increasingly moving
toward converged solutions featuring high-availability application hosting
and world-class network access for the leading global trading venues and
liquidity pools across all asset classes."

The expanded Chicago data center adds to Savvis' existing portfolio of
managed IT infrastructure services for the financial industry. Savvis offers
