    YEREVAN. - Today Armenia's Nairit Rubber Factory is the property of
    CIS Interstate Bank, and Energy and Natural Resources Minister Armen
    Movsisyan confirmed this on Thursday.

    To note, the offshore Rhinoville Property Limited, which is Nairit's
    primary owner, had taken a US$ 70-million loan from the aforementioned
    Bank in 2006, and it had put up the Factory as collateral. The loan
    was received for the Factory's upgrading and for investments, but it
    was not used for its proper purpose.

    Armen Movsisyan, however, informed that several leading companies
    continue to show an interest in Nairit.

    The Minister also noted that there will be downsizing at the Factory,
    once the new administrator is confirmed. This concerns the laying
    off of 400 employees, which, as per Armen Movsisyan, is not a great
    number, considering the total of 3,000 employees.

    Also, a five-month salary debt has accrued at present.
