    He said that after deducting fees to lawyers, the bank will pay
    about $11mln to the victims' heirs and $3mln will be transferred to
    benevolent organizations.

    Gardalyan also said that the list consists of 7 000 depositors. It
    means over 10 000 heirs may get compensations.

    The list is available on sites www.ArmenianInsuranceSettlement.com
    and www.ArmenianInsuranceSettlementAXA.com.

    The application form is placed on the sites as well.

    Brsegh Gardalyan said that the office's maim aim is to provide
    comprehensive information to potential beneficiaries.

    New York Life Insurance has already paid compensations to the Armenian
    Genocide victims' heirs.

    In 2007, this insurance company paid $20 million to the victims'
    descendants living in 26 countries. $3.6 million was paid to Armenia's
    citizens. Another 3.6 million was paid to Armenian living in the
    United States, France and the Middle East. The remaining amount was
    paid to beneficiaries living in other countries.
