                     Jarlway Holdings PLC ("the Company")                      

   Notice of resignation of Nominated Adviser and the Company's intention to   
                                delist from AIM                                

The directors of the Company (the "Directors") announce that Nabarro Wells &
Co. Limited, the Company's Nominated Adviser for the purposes of the AIM Rules
for Companies (the "AIM Rules"), has tendered its resignation as the Company's
Nominated Adviser which will take effect from 1 October 2008.

In the absence of the appointment of a replacement Nominated Adviser on or
before 1 October 2008, the Company's shares will be suspended from trading on
AIM in accordance with Rule 1 of the AIM Rules. Under the AIM Rules, if within
one month of that suspension, the Company has failed to appoint a replacement
Nominated Adviser, the admission of its shares to trading on AIM will be
cancelled.

The financial situation of the Company has deteriorated significantly during
the course of the year. The costs and regulatory burdens associated with
retaining the AIM quotation can no longer be justified. The Company is
experiencing difficulties with its banks in China such that the annual rolling
credit facilities are not being renewed and existing facilities are being
called for repayment.

The Company is not able to make full repayment. As a result, the executive
directors: Mr Wu Zhi Jia, Mr Ng Chi Chor and Mr Xu Yi Chuang who provide
personal guarantees over the Company's indebtedness will make repayment on
behalf of the Company in order to avoid foreclosure on the Company's assets in
China and prevent the Company and its subsidiaries from being unable to trade.

Under these circumstances, the Directors believe that all possible measures
should be taken to conserve the resources of the Company. Accordingly, the
Directors believe that there is no alternative but for the Company's listing on
AIM to be cancelled. The Directors therefore expect that the Company's shares
will be suspended from trading on AIM on 1 October 2008, and, on 1 November
2008, the AIM listing will be cancelled in accordance with the AIM Rules.

The Directors and the majority shareholders regret that the AIM quotation
cannot be maintained. Once the cancellation has taken effect the Company's
shareholders will no longer be able to effect transactions in the Company's
shares `on market' at the `market price'. Following the cancellation,
therefore, the Company's shareholders will have to effect any further
transactions in the Company's shares `off market' at a price to be agreed
between the relevant parties. The Company and the majority shareholder will
attempt to match buyers and sellers for the shares to assist any minority
shareholder who wants to sell their shares.

A further announcement will be made by the Company in due course.
