Update on Nominated Adviser and Suspension of Trading

On 30 June 2015, ARC Capital Holdings Limited (the "Company" or "ARCH") (AIM: ARCH) announced that it had requested the suspension of its shares from trading on AIM, pending the finalisation of its audited annual accounts for the financial year ending 31 December 2014. Furthermore, on 14 August 2015, ARCH announced that it had been notified by Grant Thornton UK LLP of its resignation as Nominated Adviser effective 15 September 2015.

Whilst the Company expects to publish its audited accounts shortly, it is yet to appoint a replacement Nominated Adviser. As such, pursuant to AIM Rule 1, ARCH shares will continue to be suspended from trading on AIM until a new Nominated Adviser is appointed. The Board of Directors continues its efforts to appoint a replacement Nominated Adviser, however, if a replacement is not found, the admission of ARCH's ordinary shares to trading on AIM will be cancelled at 7.00 a.m. on 16 October 2015.

A further announcement will be made in due course.
