    ARDSHININVESTBANK TO BE REORGANIZED INTO OPEN JOINT STOCK COMPANY


    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 26, NOYAN TAPAN. The management of Ardshininvestbank
    intends to start the process of reorganizing the bank from the closed
    joint stock company into an open joint stock company, the chairman of
    the bank's board Aram Andreasian announced this at the December 26
    press conference.

    According to him, assets of Ardshininvestbank grew by 34% or over 23
    bln drams (about 66.6 million USD) in 2007 on 2006 and will make 93
    billion drams in late 2007, while its liabilities increased by 28.2%
    (16 bln drams) and will make about 75 bln drams in late 2007. A.
    Andreasian said that it is expected that by results of 2007,
    Ardshininvestbank will receive a net profit unprecedented for the
    Armenian banking system - a net profit of over 4 bln drams to exceed
    twofold last year's index. Thanks to this profit and investments of the
    bank's shareholders, the overall capital of Ardshininvestbank will
    amount to about 19 bln drams against 11 bln drams at the beginning of
    the year.

    In the words of A. Andreasian, it is envisaged that in 2008
    Ardshininvestbank will issue bonds of the total amount of 3 bln drams
    (about 9.84 mln USD).

    It was stated that Landesbank Berlin (Germany) and Atlantic Forfaiting
    company (Switzerland) have given 2 million euros with a repayment
    period of 5 years for production re-equipment of the bank's big
    customers, while American Express and Byblosbank (Lebanon) have
    provided credit lines of 2 million dollars for implementation of
    document-related operations.

    A. Andreasian said that Ardshininvestbank is in first place in the
    Armenian banking system by the amount of credit investments, which will
    make 57 bln drams at the end of 2007 (83% growth). Consumer crediting
    grew almost 3fold and will make 20 bln drams in late 2007, while
    attracted deposits grew by 50% and will make about 15 bln drams at the
    end of 2007.

    The bank has a representative office in Paris, 49 branches in Armenia
    and 2 branches in the Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
