Codero Commits to Renewable Energy for 100% of Its Electricity Needs for All Operations

Dedicated/managed web host launches industry-leading green initiative, joins EPA Leadership Club to
encourage sustainable business solutions worldwide.

OVERLAND PARK, KS - December 2, 2009 - With the recent purchase of 12,600 MWh in renewable
energy credits (RECs), Codero now supplies 100% green power to its data centers in Phoenix, AZ and
San Diego, CA and headquarters location in Overland Park, KS. Through this long-term commitment,
Codero becomes the largest dedicated server and managed hosting provider in the industry to offer
green hosting solutions across its entire operations. The new Green with Codero Initiative means any
small- to medium-sized business can power their websites and online stores using green energy.

“Green hosting is an important step forward in our evolution as a company,” notes Phil Spencer, CEO of
Codero. “Through innovative practices and opportunities like the Green-e program, our customers can
make smarter energy choices for their online businesses – and that benefits all of us.”

Codero’s broad commitment to greening its operations was made possible through Ecoelectrons
Renewable Energy, which specializes in helping corporations reduce their carbon footprint through the
purchase of Green-e certified RECs. Green-e is the nation's leading independent consumer protection
program for the sale of renewable energy and greenhouse gas reductions in the retail market. In
addition, Codero has joined USEPA’s Green Power Partnership as a Leadership Club member to support
others within the industry and abroad to achieve more sustainable practices.

'EPA is pleased to welcome Codero to the Green Power Partnership. We applaud their commitment to
using green power to reduce greenhouse gas emissions,' says Susan Wickwire, Chief of the Energy
Supply and Industry Branch at USEPA.

Codero joins a growing list of companies and organizations taking action to reduce their greenhouse
gas emissions. A member of Green-e Energy’s Marketplace program, the company now displays the
Green-e logo on its website and other communication materials; this national symbol identifies Codero
as an environmental leader in purchasing 100% certified renewable energy. As part of the company’s
REC purchase, energy is sourced from the Pioneer Prairie Wind Farm, in Howard County, IA, and
confirmed by the Center for Resource Solutions, the nation's leading independent certification and
verification program for renewable energy.

About Ecoelectrons

Ecoelectrons helps businesses quantify and reduce their environmental footprints by supplying Green-e
Energy certified Renewable Energy Credits. Green power, from wind and other alternative sources, is
more expensive to produce than conventional fossil fuel and nuclear power. Renewable Energy Credits
represent this premium, and their purchasers become owners of the environmental attributes of the
electricity.

About Green-e Energy

Green-e Energy provides independent, third-party certification to ensure that renewable energy
products meet strict environmental and consumer protection standards. These include: energy sourced
from verified, new facilities; not double-counted towards any state's renewable energy goal; and retired
on behalf of the purchaser. The Green-e Marketplace is a program of the Center for Resource
Solutions, a nonprofit that creates policy and market solutions to advance sustainable energy. Every
Marketplace participant undergoes a verification audit to document it has purchased enough certified
renewable energy to meet the annual commitment.

About the Green Power Partnership

Managed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Green Power Partnership is a voluntary
program that supports the organizational procurement of green power by offering expert advice,
technical support, tools and resources.
