    Artsakh HPP OJSC issues foreign exchange bonds in the amount of
    6 million USD, 10% yield and 3-year maturity, ArmSwissbank, the
    underwriter of the company's bonds, told ArmInfo.

    The nominal value of a bond is $10,000, the source reports. The
    placement is scheduled for December 5- 18.

    The bank's press-service told ArmInfo, the Artsakh HPP Board of
    Directors adopted a decision to issue the foreign currency bonds on
    August 9 2012. The offering memorandum was registered by the Central
    Bank of Armenia on Nov 28 2012.

    The company plans to invest the raised funds in refinancing of bank
    loans and construction of a new small HPP with a capacity of 4.2 MW.

    2010 the Central Bank of Armenia registered the offering memorandum
    for the 2nd-issue ordinary shares of the company and in August 2011 -
    the 3rd issue. The funds raised for placement of shares were invested
    in construction of new hydropower plants.
