    GAZPROM TO DELIVER CHEAP GAS TO ARMENIA IN RETURN FOR CONTROL OF GAS NETWORK

    FORBES
    April 6 2006

    MOSCOW (AFX) - The Armenian government has signed an agreement with
    Gazprom which will give the Russian gas group control over the former
    Soviet republic's gas distribution network and its part of the planned
    Armenia-Iran gas pipeline in return for charging moderate gas prices
    until 2009.

    Gazprom has pledged to charge its neighbour 110 usd per 1.000 cubic
    metres of gas deliveries until Dec 31 2008 and pay 248.8 mln usd
    towards subsidising gas prices for the period.

    Deliveries to Europe are currently priced at 230 usd per 1.000
    cubic metres.

    Under the deal Gazprom will be allowed to acquire a controlling
    interest in gas distributor ArmRosGazprom as well as a section of
    the 40 kilometre gas pipeline linking Armenia and Iran currently
    under construction.
