Additional Explanations
The Board of Directors of Sabancı Holding has resolved the followings in its meeting dated June 20, 2023;

1) In line with the Board resolutions of May 24, 2023, the Merger Agreement and the Merger Report dated June 20, 2023, which were prepared in relation to the contemplated merger, through which all of the assets and liabilities of Exsa Export Sanayi Mamulleri Satış ve Araştırma A.Ş. (Exsa), a subsidiary of Sabancı Holding, be acquired by Sabancı Holding as a whole, shall be approved;

2) The amount of capital increase to be made by Sabancı Holding due to the merger shall be determined as TRY 72,907,188.20 and the amount of additional shares to be issued by Sabancı Holding and allocated to existing Exsa shareholders (excluding Sabancı Holding) shall be determined as 7,290,718,820; based on the merger ratio (96.55%) and the swap ratio (0,43759716) as calculated by Ernst Young Kurumsal Finansman Danışmanlık A.Ş. in its independent valuation report;

3) The proposed amendments to the Article 10 of Articles of Association due to the contemplated capital increase as part of the merger transaction shall be approved as attached;

4) An application shall be made to the Capital Markets Board within the framework of the provisions of the Communiqué No. II-23.2 in order to have the text of the announcement prepared due to the merger transaction, the issuance certificate for the shares to be issued due to capital increase and the proposed amendments regarding the capital provisions of the articles of association approved;

5) The merger transaction, the capital increase and the proposed amendments to the articles of association shall be submitted to the approval of the General Assembly, once the necessary permits and approvals are obtained.

Together with the merger, the financial investments of Sabancı Group and the assets, cash and equivalents in particular, of Exsa will be directly consolidated under Sabancı Holding, where such assets be managed in a more transparent and corporate framework. Additionally, managerial and shareholding structures will be simplified, and also the efficiency in capital allocation and portfolio management processes as well as profit distribution potential will be amplified from managing the Group's assets in a centralized fashion.

Moreover, it is estimated that Çimsa Çimento Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. (Çimsa), a subsidiary of Sabancı Holding, will be entitled to acquire Sabancı Holding's shares with TRY 33,663,255.79 nominal value that would represent 1.59% of the total shares upon the completion of the merger transaction in exchange for its existing Exsa shares with TRY 76,927,500 nominal value, based on the calculations made as per the indepenent valuation report.

In line with the above, the regulatory application before Capital Markets Board (CMB) will be submitted as of June 21, 2023 (today) to obtain necessary permits and approvals for the contemplated merger. Turkish versions of the Regulatory Filing, the Merger Agreement, the Merger Report, the Independent Valuation Report, and the Proposed Amendments to the Articles of Association (also in English), all of which will be submitted for the examination of the CMB with the application are attached to this statement.

Lastly, the Questions and Answers regarding the contemplated merger can be accessed on the Investor Relations website via the link below.


In case of a discrepancy between the Turkish and English versions of this public disclosure statement, Turkish version shall prevail.
