CALERIS EXPANDS TO ILLINOIS

West Des Moines, Iowa. September 26, 2006. Caleris, Inc., an outsourced support solutions provider based in Des Moines, Iowa, is pleased to announce the opening of a sales office in Chicago, Illinois. In a move to become the preferred Midwest provider of third-party support solutions, Caleris has opened a new sales office in Chicagoland. Caleris is committed to keeping high-tech jobs in the Midwest, and this expansion into the Chicago market will further that goal.

Sheldon S. Ohringer, CEO of Caleris, comments regarding this recent move, "We are very excited about our focus on Chicagoland and believe that we can offer an alternative to India, right here in the Midwest."

In order to facilitate partnerships with the Illinois high-tech community, Vaughn Christensen, Corporate Accounts Manager, has relocated to the Chicago area. His primary focus will be promoting and keeping high tech jobs in the Midwest. Caleris, as part of this move, has recently joined the Illinois Technology Association. Caleris wholeheartedly endorses ITA's mission to connect technology firms with others to further the technology sector in Illinois, to promote the technology industry in the region, and to inform the rest of the nation and the world that Illinois is poised to be a high tech leader in the world.

To demonstrate Caleris' commitment to creating and maintaining jobs in America's heartland, the company has adopted the motto "Outsource to Iowa, not India." Clients and end-users find great satisfaction with Caleris' world-class customer support provided by friendly midwestern agents. Caleris currently has two centers located in Iowa, with plans to open a third Midwest center in the next year. Caleris currently employs nearly 100 workers throughout Iowa.
