Chicago, Illinois, January 16, 2008 – Mori Seiki has announced that it will be moving its U.S. headquarters to a larger facility in 2008. This expansion will accommodate the growth the company’s Chicago offices have experienced since becoming the company’s national headquarters in 2005.

Mori Seiki is currently in the planning stages for the new facility, which will house offices for its national headquarters, the Chicago Technical Center, MTL (Machining Technology Laboratory), and MSU (Mori Seiki
University). The building will be located in the NW suburbs of Chicago.

“The expansion of Mori Seiki’s headquarters is a natural extension of the company’s continued success,” says Thomas R. Dillon, president of Mori Seiki USA. “Enhancing our headquarters’ presence in Chicago illustrates our commitment to the rapid growth of Mori Seiki University and to the increased support of the American market.”

Additional details on Mori Seiki’s new headquarters will be released when ground is broken for construction of the new facility.
