Historic One Letter Ticker Symbol

The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc (Nasdaq:NDAQ - News) announced today that the trading of Zillow, Inc. (Nasdaq:Z - News), the leading real estate information marketplace, commenced on The NASDAQ Stock Market on July 20, 2011.

"Zillow is transforming the way people make home-related decisions and connect with real estate and mortgage professionals, both online and on location, with their wildly popular mobile apps," said Bob McCooey, Senior Vice President, NASDAQ OMX Corporate Client Group. "NASDAQ is proud to have them listed on the NASDAQ Global Market, as they embody the innovation and progressive drive that is the foundation and mission of NASDAQ itself. This is a historic listing for NASDAQ as Zillow becomes the first single letter ticker on our exchange."

As one of the most highly anticipated information technology IPOs of the year, Zillow has adopted one of the few remaining single letter ticker symbols available to public companies and is listed under the ticker symbol Z.

Zillow(R) is a home and real estate marketplace dedicated to empowering consumers with information on homes, and connecting them with the best local professionals to help. It starts with Zillow's database of more than 100 million U.S. homes -- including homes for sale, homes for rent and Zestimate(R) home values on the majority of homes in the country.
