    SuperJet International announced the execution of a Letter of Intent
    (L.o.I.) with Armenian carrier Armavia Airlines for the After Sales
    Support of its fleet of new Sukhoi SuperJet 100 aircraft.

    With this L.o.I, SuperJet International and Armavia confirm their
    intentions to execute a "SuperCare" Agreement by the end of November
    2009, for a duration of 5 years and possibility to extend.

    The "SuperCare" Agreement is a comprehensive "pay-by-the-hour" program
    developed by SJI specifically for the SSJ100 aircraft. This innovative
    lifecycle solution has been designed to maximize aircraft availability
    to operators and minimize their maintenance and administrative
    associated costs.

    In particular, Armavia will take advantage of customized spares
    availability and "single interface" maintenance/repair solutions of
    on-board equipments.

    "We are proud to work with Armavia on this agreement which represents
    the launch of the SuperJet International's proprietary 'SuperCare
    Plan'" - said Giovanni Simonetti, Senior Vice President of Customers
    Services for SuperJet International - "Since its Entry into Service,
    Armavia SSJ100 fleet will be supported by SJI with this tailored and
    newly conceived Aftersales package."

    beneficial relationship with SuperJet International by joining its
    SuperCare Plan since day one of entry into service of our brand
    new fleet of SSJ100" - said Mr. Norayr Shakratovich Belluyan,
    General Director of Armavia - "We consider such a 'per flight hour'
    program the right solution to boost our aircraft availability while
    optimizing costs." About Armavia : "Armavia" Air Company LLC is the
