    ArmRosGazprom to issue bonds on Russian market in 2008

    YEREVAN. Jan 10


    Armenian-Russian CJSC ArmRosGazprom, Armenia's sole gas importer,
    plans to issue bonds on the Russian market in 2008, the company said
    in a statement.

    In addition, the company plans to issue bonds on the Armenian market.

    At a meeting held in September 2007, ArmRosGazprom's board of
    directors approved the issue of mid-term bonds for 5 billion dram
    (307.09 dram/$1 on January 10), or $14.7 million, in order to finance
    gasification projects. This would be the second bond issue for the
    company.

    In July 2007, ArmRosGazprom issued its debut 18-month bonds for 1
    billion dram, or $2.9 million, at 9%. In September, the bonds were
    listed on the Armenian Stock Exchange (Armex).

    The statement said that total trading of the debut bonds issue on the
    Armex from the moment of its listing until the end of 2007 has come
    to more than 211 million dram, or $736,000, which is a substantial
    sum for the Armenian market.

    ArmRosGazprom was founded in December 1997. The company's current
    charter capital comes to $391.8 million. The shareholders in
    ArmRosGazprom are Russia's Gazprom (RTS: GAZP) with a 57.59% stake,
    the Armenian government - 34.7% and Itera Oil and Gas Company (RTS:
    ITER) - 7.71%.
