SEAWAY VALLEY CAPITAL CORPORATION RELEASES ACQUISITION UPDATE NEW YORK, NY, September 11, 2007 –

Seaway Valley Capital Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: SWVC) chairman and chief executive officer, Thomas Scozzafava, issued the following update to its shareholders today: Dear Shareholders: I am pleased to announce that the financial sections of the audits of WiseBuys Stores, Inc. (“WiseBuys”), which are crucial to the Company’s first transaction, were completed on schedule by the auditors. On August 30th, Dannible & McKee prepared drafts of 2006 and 2007 audited financials for my review and approval, which took place right after the Labor Day weekend. The auditors, however, are waiting for Seaway Valley to finalize the terms of its agreements with the shareholders of WiseBuys Stores, Inc. to complete the “Subsequent Events” section of the audited financials, which must be released with the financial statements for the audits to be technically considered “completed.”

As previously communicated, Seaway Valley Capital Corporation had executed stock purchase agreements between shareholders representing approximately 75% of WiseBuys Stores, Inc. However, upon further review of the legal structure of these deals, both management and the WiseBuys sellers are exploring a slight modification that would make these agreements more tax efficient to both the sellers and potentially to the Company. Under the new proposed structure, the WiseBuys transaction will be considered a stock “merger” rather than a purchase, and the Company would seek to merge 100% of WiseBuys into Seaway rather than the 75% previously announced.

The completion of the structural changes and the agreements with WiseBuys shareholders will allow the auditors to complete the audit officially, and the acquisition shall trigger an 8K information statement that contains these financials and other information regarding Seaway Valley Capital Corporation and WiseBuys Stores, Inc. I am pleased to be able to update you on these events, and I shall continue to update you with further developments.
