Vector Group Ltd. (NYSE: VGR) announced today that it is offering $60 million aggregate principal amount of 11% Senior Secured Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to persons outside of the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act and to a limited number of other institutional accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of the Securities Act. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by all of the wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company that are engaged in the conduct of the Company’s cigarette businesses.

Level 3 Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: LVLT) today announced that it has been selected to provide voice communications services to San Francisco Bay Area-based Dialink Corporation, a provider of voice and data solutions for enterprises.
Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq:EQIX), a provider of global data center services, today announced the opening of its fourth International Business Exchange(TM) (IBX(R)) data center in the Los Angeles area.

Pulse, a Technitrol Company (NYSE: TNL), a worldwide leader in electronic component and subassembly design and manufacturing, introduces the new PG0871NL and PG0702NL series of round-wire coil surface mount power inductors. These inductors use a ferrite core material which yields a 90% core loss reduction and 30% increase in maximum operating temperature when compared to standard iron powder material used in flat-coil inductors. Because ferrite material is immune to thermal aging, these inductors are more reliable and better performing at higher temperatures and frequencies than non-ferrite core inductors. Using round wire instead of a flat coil results in a 25% cost reduction.
OpenTable, Inc. (NASDAQ:OPEN) (www.opentable.com), a leading provider of free, real-time online restaurant reservations for diners and reservation and guest management solutions for restaurants, today announced the winners of its 2009 Diners’ Choice Awards for Most Scenic View.
