    NOUBARASHEN SCHOOL #11 TO RECEIVE ORCHARD FROM HSBC BANK ARMENIA AND
    `ARMENIA TREE PROJECT'

    YEREVAN--.This Sunday, November 7, 2004, the children of the
    Noubarashen School #11 for the mentally disabled will have the
    opportunity to beautify their school grounds with the help of their
    friends from HSBC bank and the Armenia Tree Project. This is planting
    initiated by HSBC Bank as a part of their community outreach. A total
    of one hundred trees, including 30 apricot, 5 quince, 30 apple, 20
    peach, and 15 cherry trees will be planted at the event, scheduled to
    begin at 11.00 a.m. The Republic of Armenia's Ministry of Science and
    Education oversees the Noubarashen School #11, a school that provides
    accommodations and nutrition for 125 students, 110 of whom are
    permanent residents.

    Over the past five years, HSBC and the Armenia Tree Project have
    successfully collaborated on similar tree planting projects.
    Together, they provided the Noragyugh Rehabilitation Center with a
    total of four hundred trees in 2000, 2001 and 2002 years. To date,
    these seedlings are thriving, with an above average survival rate of
    72%. Since its first Armenian branch opened in March of 1996, the
    HSBC group has shown support for both education and the environment.
    Sunday's event at the Noubarashen School #11 will serve as a forum for
    the integration of these two ideals.
