As is known, the conditions foreseen for the waiver within the scope of the aforesaid agreement, taking into account the TCMB |||1-week repo||| interest rate, have been realized separately for both the full year of 2024 and the first 3-month period of 2025; this situation has been positively reflected in the Company`s results in these terms, and the data up to this date supports the prediction that the conditions for the waiver will be met for the second quarter of 2025.
The similar course of the macroeconomic indicators that provide the conditions for the exceptional waiver in question; the negative financial effects caused by high-risk periods and an the fact that the costs of medium and long-term forward contracts used by our Company as hedging instruments are still high indicates that the negative financial impact in question will continue to affect our Company`s activities in the near term.

As of January 1, 2027, the Agreements will continue with the previous conditions, and the waivers provided for under certain conditions for 2024, 2025 and 2026 will not constitute vested rights for Türk Prysmian Kablo ve Sistemleri A.Ş.
