NewMarket Latin America, Inc. Announces $10.5 Million Contract and Issues Update on Consolidation and Listing Upgrade


DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - July 31, 2008) - NewMarket Latin America, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: NLAI) today announced a three-year, $10.5 million contract in Bogota, Colombia that will substantially increase the Company's anticipated annual revenue. The operations being consolidated into NewMarket Latin America have approximate annual revenue of $20 million before any benefit from the $10.5 million contract announced today.

NewMarket Latin America, Inc. is in the process of being reconstituted, with systems integration operations in Brazil, Chile, and Venezuela, to be combined into the Company. NewMarket Latin America was formerly a financial service company with another name. As part of a comprehensive purchase agreement, the Company's corporate name has been changed to NewMarket Latin America, Inc. and the former company's delinquent filings are being updated and filed to bring the organization current with Security and Exchange Commission requirements. The public reporting compliance update has taken longer than anticipated, but is expected to be complete this year. The systems integration operations currently doing business as NewMarket Latin America are also planned to be formally consolidated into the reconstituted company this year. Once the compliance update and consolidation are complete, the Company will take the necessary steps to upgrade its listing to the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) Exchange.
