NewMarket Targets Telecommunications and Technology Market in Africa

Earlier this year, NewMarket was invited to present at the African
Advanced Level Telecommunications Institute (AFRALTI) WiMax Conference in
Nairobi based on the Company's experience in emerging economies. The
Company had previously participated in the "Connecting Rural Communities
Africa Forum 2007," also in Nairobi.

Broadband adoption in Africa is expected to experience 28% growth annually
through 2013 as undersea cables come online. Kenya has one submarine cable
in place with two additional cables expected by 2011. The expanded
capacity for broadband in Africa is expected to reduce costs by nearly
75%, making broadband affordable to end-users. Africa's current broadband
system relies heavily on satellite for broadband communication, which
typically costs about 20 times more than broadband offerings in the U.S.
A recent report by Pyramid Research stated, "By early 2011, we expect
that more than half of all African markets will have 3G, while broadband
coverage is increasing daily via both wireless and wireline technologies."

As the region's technology and communication infrastructure grows,
NewMarket plans to position itself to provide the high-quality, affordable
technology products and services needed. To do so, the Company has
announced plans to expand its operations in China into the East Africa
region.
