    RALPH YIRIKIAN: CLASSICAL MUSIC RECEIVES SPECIAL ATTENTION FROM VIVACELL-MTS

    16:36 12/02/2013 " CULTURE

    Today at a joint press conference organized at the Ministry of Culture,
    the Minister Hasmik Poghosyan and VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph
    Yirikian presented the jointly implemented cultural projects in 2012,
    and the future plans for 2013, company's press service reported.

    Supporting the culture has been within the focus of the Corporate
    Responsibility activities of VivaCell-MTS since the first day of
    operation. Overall, 6.5 billion AMD were allocated by the Company
    on sponsoring and implementation of cultural projects, of which 952,
    8 million AMD allocated in 2012. VivaCell-MTS reaffirms its readiness
    to support the national cultural initiatives during 2013 as well. For
    this year, 1.204 billion AMD are allocated for supporting diverse
    cultural projects.

    The preservation and development of national identity is a priority
    for VivaCell-MTS. The Company wants to support, develop and cherish the
    feeling of national identity among Armenians, to promote Armenia as all
    Armenians' home, loved by them and serving as a source of inspiration.

    Nevertheless, VivaCell-MTS' support to the sphere of culture is not
    limited to the promotion of national culture. The Company believes that
    the culture becomes much stronger and richer from open communication
    with the culture of other nations. The Company's mission is also
    to facilitate the aesthetic education of the young generation in
    Armenia. And every unique and remarkable event adds a new quality
    and cultural mark to Armenian society.

    The cultural initiatives supported by VivaCell-MTS embrace a variety
    of spheres and genres, starting from those which illustrate the
    tragic pages of Armenian history; particularly, the donation of
    historical documentary volumes to the library of the Armenian Genocide
    Museum-Institute, and also undertaking the sponsorship of staging the
    "Operation Nemesis" performance.

    Classical music receives a special attention from VivaCell-MTS:
    the Company provided financial support to the organization of the
    "I Solisti Veneti Grand Concerto" event, initiated by the Italian
    Embassy, sponsoring the National Gallery Classical Music Festival,
    Gyumri Renaissance Music Festival, and Return Music Festival. In
    addition, VivaCell-MTS supports Armenian Philharmonic Orchestra, the
    State Youth Orchestra, Komitas Quartet, Barekamutyun dance ensemble,
    and the State Academic Choir, for supporting a better future of arts.

    VivaCell-MTS also supports the creation of the ontology "Public
    Radio's Golden Fund."

    VivaCell-MTS bears responsibility as a corporate citizen, to support
    the Armenian cinematography in its efforts to remain vital and
    relevant to the spiritual needs of the Armenian audience. Golden
    Apricot International Film Festival who will be celebrating their
    10th anniversary this year, VivaCell-MTS is their main partner and
    sponsor for the 8th time in a row that is yet another efficient means
    to bringing Armenia to the world and the world to Armenia.

    VivaCell-MTS has also contributed to the Yerevan World Book Capital
    project, by sponsoring Via Libri (the Way of the Book) project.

    VivaCell-MTS is sure that supporting book-reading promotion projects,
    aimed at strengthening the reading culture at schools, will result
    in better prepared youth for the future cultural, social and economic
    development.

    In 2013 the Ministry of Culture will continue coming up with bold
    initiatives including numerous musical, theatrical, youth-oriented
    premieres and projects, and festivals. Such a rich diversity of
    cultural initiatives can be brought to life with the support of the
    Ministry of Culture only because there are corporate partners with
    a noble mission - supporting the preservation and development of
    the cultural identity of the Nation, as well as presentation of the
    world's rich cultural heritage to Armenia. The Ministry of Culture
    values the long-term and fruitful cooperation with Armenia's Leading
    Telecommunications Operator embracing multiple joint projects in the
    spheres of culture aimed at the promotion of the Armenian culture in
    the world.

    The history of any society resides in its arts and culture. By
    acknowledging this, VivaCell-MTS has proven to be the Friend of
    contemporary Armenian culture by striving to help it stay on the
    leading edge.
