NewSpring Capital Leads Mezzanine Investment in CODi, Inc.

RADNOR, PA, - July 11, 2011-NewSpring Capital, a family of private equity funds providing growth and expansion capital to the Mid-Atlantic region, announced today that NewSpring Mezzanine Capital led a subordinated debt financing in CODi, Inc. ("CODi" or the "Company").

CODi is a provider of laptop computer carrying cases and mobile computer accessories to Fortune 500 companies. Headquartered in Harrisburg, PA, and founded in 1992, the Company initially designed and sold laptop computer carrying cases specifically for the corporations and their mobile professionals.

The Company's mobile computing accessory lines, including security locks, wireless mice, port replicators and power adaptors, allow CODi to bundle cases with other peripherals, providing corporate customers with a more complete product line and a more efficient procurement process.

"We welcome NewSpring to our Company, and appreciate the confidence they have demonstrated in our team and our strategy," said James Bland, CEO of CODi Inc. "NewSpring's support will help fuel our continued expansion and growth in the years to come."

"CODi, Inc. is a terrific addition to the NewSpring Mezzanine portfolio.

"We are happy to be in a position to support CODi as they continue to scale and strengthen their position as a market leader in the mobile computing accessory marketplace."
