    Armenian Students' Association of America Named an Official Charity
    Partner of the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon Set for Sunday,
    November 1, 2015

    New York, March 10, 2015 - Armenian Students' Association of America
    (ASA) will become an Official Charity Partner of the 2015 TCS New York
    City Marathon, it was announced today by the president of the New York
    chapter of ASA, Rafi Hovsepian. The race will take place on Sunday,
    November 1, 2015.

    `ASA is thrilled to partner with the TCS New York City Marathon as an
    official charity partner,' said Rafi Hovsepian. `The TCS New York
    City Marathon provides a powerful platform for our passionate charity
    runners to fundraise and raise awareness for causes that are close to
    their hearts. We are looking forward to supporting our runners
    throughout their memorable journeys as they train for, and ultimately
    achieve their goal of completing this race, all while raising critical
    funds to benefit our arts and education programs.

    Nearly 300 official charity partners are expected to participate in
    the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon this year.

    ASA is one of the oldest Armenian-American community organizations
    established in 1910, and its TEAM ARMENIA will run to proudly display
    the resilience of the Armenian people in their triumph over tragedy
    through education, arts and the pursuit of excellence.

    `We warmly welcome Armenian Students' Association of America as an
    official charity partner for the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon,'
    said Mary Wittenberg, president and CEO of New York Road Runners. `All
    of our participants are inspired to run for reasons significant and
    special to them, and we are especially appreciative of those who make
    a meaningful commitment to run on behalf of one of our official
    charity partners. We wish the best to all of these runners as they
    begin to plan and prepare for an experience of a lifetime at the 2015
    TCS New York City Marathon.'

    The 2015 TCS New York City Marathon will feature a talented American
    and international professional athlete field, charity runners, and
    thousands of runners of all ages and abilities. More than 10,000
    volunteers help to support participants across the 26.2-mile race
    route, which touches each of New York City's five boroughs, and is
    lined with more than one million neighbors and guests. Last year, NYRR
    celebrated each of the 50,530 runners who crossed the finish line and
    made the 2014 TCS New York City Marathon the largest in the world,
    including the one-millionth finisher ever in the history of the
    event. Participants hailed from more than 130 countries and each of
    the 50 states.

    The 2015 TCS New York City Marathon will again air live locally on
    ABC7 and nationally on ESPN2.

    About the TCS New York City Marathon

    The TCS New York City Marathon is the premier event of New York Road
    Runners (NYRR) and the largest marathon in the world. Held annually on
    the first Sunday in November, the race features the world's top
    professional athletes and a vast range of competitive, recreational,
    and charity runners. The race began in 1970 with just 127 entrants
    running four laps around Central Park, and expanded citywide in
    1976. In 2014, a record 50,530 runners from 130 countries toured New
    York City's five boroughs, starting on Staten Island at the foot of
    the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, and running through the neighborhoods of
    Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx, before ending in Manhattan at the
    iconic Central Park finish line. More than one million spectators line
    the city streets to cheer on the runners, while millions more watch
    the live television broadcast in the United States and around the
    world. The race is part of the Abbott World Marathon Majors, a series
    featuring the world's top marathons-Tokyo, Boston, London, Berlin,
    Chicago, and New York-and crowning the top professional male and
    female marathoners of the series. Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a
    leading global IT services, consulting, and business solutions
    organization, is the premier partner of NYRR and the title sponsor of
    the TCS New York City Marathon. To learn more, visit
