CORAZON APPEARS ON FIRST-EVER INC. 5,000 LIST OF THE FASTEST-GROWING
BUSINESSES IN THE UNITED STATES

Pittsburgh, PA, October 17, 2007—Corazon is pleased to announce appearance at #4705 on the first-ever “Inc. 5,000” list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country as ranked by Inc. Magazine. The Inc. 5,000, an extension of Inc. Magazine’s annual Inc. 500 list, catches many businesses that are too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.

“The Inc. 5,000 provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy – the entrepreneurial part,” said Inc. 5,000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The expansion of the list has allowed us to tell the stories of larger companies, older companies, and a wealth of companies in industries that are underreported in the business media.

Corazon is honored to be a part of this prestigious list. According to President, Karen Hartman , “To be included in the inaugural list of the top 5,000 companies in the United States is remarkable. Corazon is proud of this achievement and we hope to continue to advance our growth and entrepreneurial drive in our industry in order to improve our ranking in years to come.”

Collectively, the 2007 Inc. 5,000, as revealed online at www.inc.com, reported median revenue of $9.4 million and median three-year growth of 140%. Complete information on this year’s Inc. 5,000, can be found at www.inc.com/inc500 0. The list features a profile for each company, almost all of them written as a result of Inc. interviews with management. In addition, the list is searchable according to numerous criteria, including industry, city, state, region, and year founded.

Methodology
The 2007 Inc. 5000 list measures revenue growth from 2003 through 2006. To qualify, companies had to be U.S.-based and privately held, independent – not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies – as of December 31, 2006 , and have had at least $200,000 in revenue in 2003, and $2 million in 2006.
