Subject: Regulatory Public Disclosure Dated 06.07.2018
It had been disclosed on 06.07.2018 that all creditors including our Bank have
reached an agreement on restructuring the debts of Ojer Telekomünikasyon A.S.
(OTAS), the major shareholder of Türk Telekomünikasyon A.S. (Türk Telekom)
provided under the loan agreements. It was contemplated that 192.500.000.000
Class A shares owned by OTAS in Türk Telekom, representing 55% of Türk
Telekom's issued share capital, which have been pledged as security for the
existing loan facilities of OTAS, would be taken over by a special purpose
vehicle incorporated or to be incorporated in the Republic of Turkey, owned
directly or indirectly by the creditors.
Based on the above it has been decided that our bank will participate to the
special purpose vehicle established in Istanbul with a shareholding of
22.1265%.
In contradiction between the Turkish and English versions of this public
disclosure, the Turkish version shall prevail.
We declare that our above statements are in conformity with the principles
