    PRIVATE COMPANY ISSUES FIRST BONDS

    ARMENPRESS
    Jul 27, 2007

    YEREVAN, JULY 27, ARMENPRESS: A private Armenian company has announced
    today the issuance of 350 million Armenian Drams worth 7,000 bonds
    with a 10.5 percent annual interest rate and 18 month maturity period.

    The value of each of the bonds issued by Valletta company is 50,000
    Drams (about $147).

    Henrik Zakharian, the founder and a major shareholder, praised the
    Central Bank's policy during the presentation ceremony saying it was
    very instrumental in their decision to enter the corporate market.

    Valletta company owns a chain of shops selling sanitary equipment
    and meat and coffee processing workshops.

    Central Bank governor Tigran Sarkisian said bonds will give this
    company extra opportunities to enlarge its businesses. He also promised
    Central Bank's assistance to all companies which will decide to follow
    the example of Valletta.

    He said another company is going to issue its bonds soon, but declined
    to name it.
