Moscow, Russia - June 8, 2007 - Sistema (LSE: SSA), the largest private sector consumer services company in Russia and the CIS, today announced that it intends to purchase its own stock through a wholly owned subsidiary "Sistema Finance Investments" at a price of US$ 1,350 per share for a total cash consideration of  up to US$ 150 million.

As announced earlier, Sistema is establishing a share option programme for the top management of the company. The acquired shares are intended for the funding of this programme and may also be used in connection with certain future acquisition activity.
