successfully launched by Armenia Securities Exchange (AMX). The new trading
system will allow market participants to develop and implement new types of
exchange products and tools. It will provide additional flexibility to market participants
by allowing implementation of multiple functions on a single platform.

replacing the old RTS-Armex Plaza system.

tool for the trade members, sponsored market access clients, and other market
participants. For the first time, individuals are able to make transactions directly via
the trading platform. AMXTrader is providing an opportunity for its users to trade in

auctions. A convenient filtration system is offered, for the participants to quickly find
and work on whatever orders and deals they need to amend. AMXTrader has a new
