    YEREVAN

    The [Russian] International Volgaburmash Holding company has become
    the new owner of the Nairit closed-type joint-stock company, one of
    the giants of the Armenian chemical industry that specializes in the
    production of synthetic rubber.

    The agreement on the purchase of 100 per cent of the enterprise's
    shares was signed between Volgaburmash and Haykap Bank at the Armenian
    Central Bank today, Mediamax reports.

    Addressing a briefing after the signing of the agreement, Volgaburmash
    representative Mikhail Zavertyaev said that the restoration of
    Nairit's positions on the Russian market of synthetic rubber would
    become the priority task for the holding. Due to commercial
    confidentiality, Zavertyaev refused to disclose the cost of the deal
    on the purchase of Nairit's shares. He said that Volgaburmash had
    drafted a project of reconstruction of the enterprise aimed at
    resuming the production of butadiene at Nairit. The project is
    estimated at 5m dollars. According to Mikhail Zavertyaev, since 2003
    Volgaburmash Holding has invested 3.5m dollars in Nairit.
