Press Release Summary = Data Foundry announces that they will provide a custom built
data center services solution for Whataburger Restaurants, LP.

Press Release Body = June 4, 2007- Austin, TX-- Data Foundry, Inc. announced today
that they have been awarded a data center services contract by Whataburger
Restaurants, LP, a Texas-born food chain with nearly 700 restaurants throughout 10
US states. Whataburger is housing its primary server infrastructure within a custom
built cage in one of Data Foundry\'s enterprise data centers.

Data Foundry will provide a secure data center facility in which to house
Whataburger\'s entire mission critical server infrastructure so that its operations
will be maintained in the event of a local disaster, such as a hurricane.
Whataburger will continue to utilize its Corpus Christi location as a contingency
site.

\"Throughout the past couple of years we\'ve seen more and more companies adopting
robust disaster recovery plans which place their secondary site well away from their
primary site. Whataburger\'s choice to take their contingency plan a step further
and move their primary sever infrastructure away from their coastal headquarters is
reflective of this trend towards creating the safest, most logical disaster recovery
plans possible. Data Foundry\'s Austin Data Center is a natural choice for companies
seeking a top facility which is isolated from many of the inherent risks found in
coastal and panhandle locations,\" said Mark Noonan, VP of Sales for Data Foundry.

Data Foundry\'s Austin data center is easily accessible to other cities in the Gulf
region and is centered in a climatically quiet part of the state. Further, Data
Foundry\'s data center is an enterprise level facility which features multi-layered
security, redundant HVAC and UPS units, and a 24/7/365 network operations center
manned by Data Foundry\'s highly trained engineering and support staff.

About Whataburger
Family-owned Whataburger has focused on its fresh, made-to-order burgers since 1950,
when company founder Harmon Dobson opened his first Whataburger restaurant in Corpus
Christi, Texas. The small, wooden kiosk sold the enormous burgers for 25 cents each,
and before the first week was out, lines stretched down the street. Today, there are
nearly 700 locations in 10 states with sales approaching $1 billion annually.
