    YEREVAN. Aug 12

    Armenia, which plans to place its debut Eurobonds, has selected
    Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, HSBC Bank Plc, and JP Morgan
    Securities Plc to be the issue's main organizers, the Armenian Finance
    Ministry's website says.

    The draft of a decision on the conclusion of agreements with the main
    organizers for the issue with the aim of placing Eurobonds, present
    by Finance Minister David Sargsyan, was confirmed at a government
    meeting August 8.

    The government approved the concept for the issue of forex bonds on
    the international market back in May. It will be of $500 million with
    a ten-year circulation period.

    Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan has said that some of the
    Eurobond placement proceeds would go into inexpensive credits for the
    country's private sector and some to servicing a stabilization credit
    Russia provided in 2009. Russia and Armenia signed an agreement in
    May of that year for a fifteen-year, $500 million state credit at
    LIBOR+3%. The agreement envisions a grace period for the repayment
    of principal; in the first five years only interest has to be paid.
