("Harmanlı"), Öztürk Power Enerji Yatırımları A.Ş. ("Öztürk"), Malek Enerji Yatırımları A.Ş. ("Malek") and Baz Enerji Yatırımları A.Ş. ("Baz") (collectively called the "Selling Shareholders"). "The Selling Shareholders announce the launch of the placement of 39,600,000 class B shares (the "Shares") in the share capital of Europower Enerji ve Otomasyon Teknolojileri Sanayi Ticaret A.Ş. ("Europower") representing approximately 6.00% of the issued share capital thereof (the "Transaction"). The Shares offered comprise of 15,000,000 class B Shares from Girişim, 6,123,000 class B Shares from Harmanlı, 8,733,000 class B Shares from Öztürk, 8,514,000 class B Shares from Malek and 1,230,000 class B Shares from Baz. The sale will be made by way of a placement to institutional investors in and outside of Türkiye. The price per Share in the Transaction will be determined through an accelerated bookbuilding process which will commence immediately. The Selling Shareholders reserve the right to change the terms and timing of the Transaction at any time. Tera Yatırım Menkul Değerler A.Ş. ("Tera") intends to participate in the Transaction by acquiring a 3% stake in Europower at the final offer price. The Selling Shareholders will receive the gross proceeds from the Transaction. Girişim will receive and retain its share of the sale proceeds, and the balance of the sale proceeds will be distributed to the other Selling Shareholders in accordance with their respective holdings sold in the Transaction. Girisim will use its shares of the sale proceeds to fund ESCO (Energy Services Company) and BTO (build-transfer-operate) and other energy investments, and for increasing the working capital in Girişim's fast growing Turkish and International EPC projects in Romania, Azerbaijan and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Muhittin Behiç Harmanlı, Ali Gökhan Öztürk and Ramin Malek intend to provide a Turkish Lira shareholder loan (debt) of TL1.25bn from the aggregate gross proceeds from the Transaction to Europower immediately after the receipt of their proceeds from the Transaction. The shareholder loan will be provided at an effective 0% interest rate with the repayment to be made in Turkish Lira indexed to the inflation rate published by the Turkish Statistical Institute (Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu). The Selling Shareholders understand that Europower intends to use the proceeds of the shareholder loan to enhance its working capital in the power transformer segment, and to accelerate the ramp up of the power transformer factory. Returns from the investment will be used to repay the shareholder loan in cash, with no new share issuance or dilution for existing shareholders. HSBC Bank plc ("HSBC") will act as the Sole Global Coordinator (the "Sole Global Coordinator") and HSBC and Tera will act as the Joint Bookrunners (the "Joint Bookrunners") to the Selling Shareholders in relation to the Transaction. It is expected that, in order to facilitate the settlement of the Transaction as a wholesale transaction (toptan alım satım işlemi), HSBC Yatırım Menkul Değerler A.Ş. will apply to Borsa Istanbul A.Ş. (the "BIST") on 18 June 2026. Subject to the timing of the approval of BIST, the trade relating to the Transaction is expected to be effected on 19 June 2026 and is expected to settle as a wholesale transaction (toptan alım satım işlemi) on 23 June 2026. As of today, the Shares subject to the Transaction are not in tradable form, and the conversion process to render such shares tradable on BIST is expected to be completed as of the date of the wholesale transaction. Following the Transaction, the free float ratio of Europower shares is expected to increase. The Selling Shareholders currently hold directly approximately 56.43% of the issued share capital in Europower, with Girişim, Harmanlı, Öztürk, Malek and Baz holding 52.7%, 0.93%, 1.32%, 1.29% and 0.19% respectively of the issued share capital. Muhittin Behiç Harmanlı, Ali Gökhan Öztürk, Ramin Malek, and Mesut Baz directly hold (as individuals), alongside the Selling Shareholders in aggregate approximately 69.75% of the issued share capital in Europower. Following the successful completion of the Transaction, Muhittin Behiç Harmanlı's, Ali Gökhan Öztürk's, Ramin Malek's, Mesut Baz's and the Selling Shareholders' direct shareholding ratio in Europower is expected to be approximately 63.75%. The Selling Shareholders, Muhittin Behiç Harmanlı, Ali Gökhan Öztürk, Ramin Malek, and Mesut Baz have undertaken to the Sole Global Coordinator not to sell any of their shares in Europower for 90 days following the settlement date of the Transaction, including any shares held by controlled entities, subject to customary exceptions or any transactions carried out with the consent of the Sole Global Coordinator. The agreed 90-day lock-up period applies and restricts the sale of residual shares held by the Selling Shareholders, Muhittin Behiç Harmanlı, Ali Gökhan Öztürk, Ramin Malek and Mesut Baz in Europower with regards to any potential M&A transactions. Potential M&A Transactions On the 27th October 2025, Muhittin Behiç Harmanlı, Ali Gökhan Öztürk, Ramin Malek, and Mesut Baz had announced that they are evaluating different strategic alternatives in relation to their shareholdings in Europower and its parent company, Girişim, including potential M&A transactions, amongst others. Whilst this process is continuing in parallel, there is no certainty that any M&A will occur or that Muhittin Behiç Harmanlı, Ali Gökhan Öztürk, Ramin Malek, and Mesut Baz will proceed with a sale.
