    Third Tranche Admission of Private Financing Package


    Clean Air Power Limited (AIM: CAP), the developer of Dual-FuelTM combustion technology that enables heavy-duty diesel engines to run on
a combination of both diesel and natural gas, is pleased to announce that further to its press release on 13 March 2008 regarding its
private financing package, it has now completed the third tranche of �0.5m. Application has been made for admission to trading of 3,125,000
Common Shares in relation to this third tranche and admission is expected to occur on or about 10 October 2008. 

    Following admission of the third tranche Placing Shares, Clean Air Power will have 38,443,877 Common Shares of US$0.001 each in issue. 

    The above financing package was designed to provide a minimum of �2.5m and a maximum of �5m for the Company between April 2008 and June
2009.  The majority of this funding is to be provided by Endeavor Capital Management LLC (Endeavor), a longstanding and major shareholder in
the Company.  

    The first �2m has already been received in line with the original agreement in three tranches; �1m on 30 April 2008; �0.5m on 30 June
2008; and �0.5m on or before 10 October 2008. A further �1m is expected to be drawn in two tranches; �0.5m on or before 15 December 2008;
and �0.5m on or before 31 January 2009. 

    The original �5m was made up of �0.35m from management and other existing investors and up to �4.65m from Endeavor with Endeavor's
contractual obligation to fund up to �4.65m being conditional on the closing of certain of its funds. Since these funds have not yet closed,
the contract provides that the absolute obligation is set at a level where the Company receives a minimum of �2.5m from this fundraising. In
this case Endeavor has a continuing obligation to deliver the second �2.5m on a 'best efforts' basis until the funds close when the �4.65m
obligation will become absolute.  However, Endeavor has reaffirmed its intention to be able to deliver the full �4.65m prior to 30 June
2009.

    John Pettitt, CEO of Clean Air Power, commented "We are very pleased that our funding deal remains on track under current market
conditions.  We believe that truck operators will look to reduce costs further in the potentially challenging economic times ahead. Under
this climate we believe the financial savings delivered by Clean Air Power's technology will prove increasingly persuasive to both operators
and manufacturers."
