INTRODUCTION Background This NTS is a concise presentation of the available information concerning the environmental and social issues of a project to build and operated an 840 MW natural gas CCGT by İç Anadolu Doğalgaz Elektrik Üretim ve Ticaret A.Ş (İç Anadolu Ener together with a 12.6 km NGPL and an associated also 58 km overhead transmission line in the Kırıkkale province of Turkey (the “Project”). The Project has been screened as a Category A project by both IFC and EBRD, which requires an ESIA and development of a public disclosure package. This NTS forms part of the disclosure package for this project as does an Environmental and Social Assessment Report (EIA Report), ESAP and Stakeholder Engagement Plan (SEP). A separate EIA Report has been undertaken for the transmission power lines, which is enclosed herewith. The Company has retained AECOM to develop an Equator Principles complaint ESIA. AECOM has conducted a detailed environmental baseline study in the scope of the ESIA study. General climatology, air quality, land use, noise, geology, flora, fauna, naturally protected areas, archeologically protected areas specific to the Project site are assessed in the scope of this study. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Overview of the Company and Project Gama Enerji A.Ş. (GAMA), established as a separate entity from Gama Holding in 2002, primarily develops, owns and operates power generation projects as well as water harvesting and conveyance project. GAMA currently has seven operational projects consist of three HPPs (Birecik, Lamas, Cakirlar) and three WPPs (Sares, Karadag, and Gokres), and a groundwater harvesting and conveyance project (Disi) in Jordan. Ic Anadolu Dogal Gaz Elektrik Uretim Ve Ticaret A.S., which is established by GAMA, will be responsible for the construction and operation/maintenance of the natural gas combined cycle power plant (CCGT) in Kırıkkale province of Turkey. The proposed plant will be a typical 2 +1 multi shaft (2 gas turbines and 1 steam turbine) configured natural gas-fired power plant. The Project will be located in Hacılar Town of Kırıkkale Province which is situated in the Central Anatolia Region in Turkey. The project area is located in an industrial zone and the land is owned by İç Anadolu Energy. A fuel oil-fired 153 MW Barmek-GAMA Power Plant, which has been dismantled, is located at the southwest of the Project site. The Tüpraş Orta Anadolu Refinery is located at approximately 500 m southeast of the Project site. The Project site is approximately 3.2 km away from the center of Hacılar Town which is the closest settlement. An “Electric Power Generation License” from EMRA has been secured for the proposed project for 49 years. TEİAS has also given its permission to connect to the national grid. In addition, an affirmative decision of BOTAS has been obtained for a 12.6 km pipeline connection to Samsun Ankara Natural Gas Pipeline. The plant will be connected to the national grid through a single circuit 58 km 380 kV overhead power transmission line which will join to existing Keban OHL at the last 10 km to the Gölbaşı Substation. The Power Plant’s 420 MW Generation License was granted by EMRA on March 16, 2011 with a term of 49 years which will expire in 2060. An application to increase the capacity to 840MWe was made on Apr 8, 2011, which was approved by EMRA on May 31, 2012. An EIA report was prepared

ES-4

and submitted to the MoEU on June 15, 2012 for the 840 MWe CCGT. Such EIA report has been accepted as the final report by the review committee and “EIA Affirmative” decision was prepared by the MOEU on 19.03.2013. The construction of the CCGT was initiated in early 2014, whilst the estimated Commercial Operation Date is in August 2016.

Overview of the Proposed Project. Combined Cycle Gas Turbines are a form of highly efficient energy generation technology that combines a gas-fired turbine with a steam turbine. The design uses the gas turbines to generate electricity and then captures the resulting waste heat to create steam, which in turn drives a steam turbine significantly increasing the system's power output without any increase in fuel. The technology is typically powered using natural gas Details of the Project are presented below. 864MWm / 840MWe Installed capacity Combined Cycle Gas Turbine PP PP Type Unit configurations: 209FB-MS Multi-Shaft configuration with 2 gas turbines and 1 steam turbine Gas Turbines: (2x288) MWm / (2x280) MWe (PG9371FB.05) Steam Turbine: (1x288) MWm / (1x280) Mwe (D-11) %58,21 LHH at Site Conditions Guaranteed efficiency 810 MW at Site Conditions Guaranteed Output 6,3 TWh (estimated) Annual production amount 32 months Estimated construction period August 2016 Estimated COD Natural gas only Fuel type 1272 MCM 380 kV 58 km OHL to Gölbaşı/Ankara Transmission over-headlines Hot-tap connection to 48’’ Samsun-Ankara Natural Gas pipeline Natural gas pipelines In PP : 12,6 km 16’’ X52 pipeline 15 °C, 0,9231 bar, %60 RH Site Conditions The new investment will be in full compliance with both Turkish legislation and IED.

The main stages of the project development are: • Design and design approval / release • Ground preparation and the creation of appropriate foundations for the power station; • The transport of heavy equipment to the site; • Construction of the power plant and associated structures, HRSGs, including associate water treatment facilities, Switchyard, auxiliary buildings, etc; • Construction of the necessary infrastructure; • Construction of a high pressure gas pipeline; • Construction of high voltage transmission lines and • Testing and Commissioning of the plant Overhead Transmission Line: A 58 km energy transmission line will be built as part of the Project. An “Electric Power Generation License” from EMRA has been secured for the proposed project for 49 years. TEIAS has also approved the connection to the national grid. The location of the transmission line is provided below:

The plant will be connected to the national grid through a single circuit 58 km 380 kV overhead power transmission lines which will join to the existing Keban OHL in Gölbaşı Substation in Ankara. Detailed design of the overhead power line has been approved by TEIAS in 12.05.2014. The final EIA for the overhead line was approved by the Ministry of Environment. Preparations of expropriation files are completed and the contract was signed with the Contractor Company on 07.03.2014. Overall project was completed by 70% as of mid-February 2015. Expected energization date for the OHL is early May’15. Copy of the EIA is provided in the ESIA disclosure documentation. Natural Gas Pipeline: An affirmative decision of BOTAS has been obtained for a 12.6 km pipeline connection to Samsun Ankara Natural Gas Pipeline. Land acquisition and construction activities initiated for the NGPL and construction is planned to be completed by 25.07.2015. Project Alternatives The project alternatives are also evaluated in the scope of the ESIA study. This included the option to ‘do nothing’ and maintain the old plant on sites which has already been partially demolished. The ESIA concluded that this is a favorable site, as the site has included an old diesel fired power plant (using Wartstila diesel engines, which are both noisy and emit high NOx levels) and in essence this is a replacement of old technology with new. These areas included also a large refinery nearby. The site is located away from major residential areas and it is close the connection point to the natural gas transmission line of Samsun-Ankara Natural Gas Transmission Pipeline. The natural gas combined cycle power plant technology was selected after economic and technical specifications and fuel requirement of the fuel-oil and coal fired thermal power generation facility alternatives. In addition, after it was determined that a water resource is not available for a water cooling system to be installed for the proposed plant, air cooling system was selected.

Project setting and Location Project Location: The Project is located in Hacılar Town of Kırıkkale Province which is situated in the central part of Turkey. The Project site is approximately 3.2 km away from the center of Hacılar Town which is the closest settlement. The Project area is located in an industrial zone and the land is owned by Ic Anadolu Energy. A fuel oil-fired 153 MW Barmek-GAMA Power Plant, which has been decommissioned, is located at the southwest of the Project site. The Tüpraş Orta Anadolu Refinery is located at approximately 500 m southeast of the Project site. Panoramic view of the project site can be seen in Figure 2-2 and satellite images of the Project site can be seen in Figure 2-1, Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4 below.

Summary of Environmental and Social Impacts Given below is a summary of the key findings of the environmental and social assessment undertaken by AECOM of the Project. Air Quality The existing ambient air quality near the Project site is obtained from the ambient air quality monitoring studies. Ambient SO2 and PM10 concentrations were obtained from a passive sampling study conducted between August 2003 and January 2004. In addition, ambient NO2 and NO concentrations around the Project area are measured at 13 points for 2 months (June – August 2010) by conducting a passive sampling study. The monitoring results showed that ambient levels of NO2, NO, NOx, SO2 and PM10 are all below the Turkish and IFC/WB limits. The air quality impacts associated with the proposed Project are estimated using a state-of-the-art air dispersion model developed by the U.S. EPA and recommended by the World Bank for air quality assessment. The AERMOD was used to calculate concentrations of particulates emitted during construction period and gases emitted from the HRSG stack during operation. It is concluded that the proposed Project will not affect adversely the local air quality during the construction and operation, taking into account the dispersion effect of the wind in the project area. Mitigation measures will be taken to reduce the amount of dust generated during construction and therefore it is not expected that dust generated during construction activities will create adverse impacts on the local air quality. The modeling analysis demonstrated that ambient pollutant concentrations in the Project area will be in compliance with the Turkish ambient air quality standards and the IFC/WB guideline concentrations. The estimated ambient concentrations are much lower than the limits. Therefore, emissions from the proposed plant will provide almost negligible contribution to the background air quality.

During the Operational phase of the plant, the Company will undertake necessary legal monitoring to verify the environmental impacts to ensure the compliance. Best Available Techniques (BAT) The Plant will be designed and operated using best available techniques. The plant will be fully compliant with Turkish environmental standards as well as IED and BAT. Through the use of the state-of-the at GE turbines the plant will attain a net efficiency of 58,21%. The Plant emits approximately 0.35kgs or 0.76 lbs CO2 per kWh. This is viewed as BAT compliant. Dry Low NOx Combustor The plant will use a dry low NOx combustor (DLN 2.6+), which is a single stage, multi-mode combustor designed to minimize emissions when operating on gas fuel. The use of the DLN will allow for NOx emissions to be below 50 mg/Nm3. The diagram as follows shows the arrangement of the major components of the combustor.

Air Cooled Condenser In order to reduce water use, the plant will include an air cooled condenser. The air cooling technology uses multiple rows of fans to condense the rejected steam. Steam is ducted from the steam turbine to the top of banks of heat exchangers. Air is blown over the heat exchangers using electrical fans. The condensed steam flows inside the exchangers and is gathered under the condenser where it can be reused for steam generation in the combined cycle plant. The use of air cooling means that water consumption of the plant is greatly reduced.

ES-9

In order to monitor the emission, the plant will be equipped with CEMS as well as water monitoring. Noise Existing background noise levels are measured continuously for a period of 24 hours a day for two days at the closest noise sensitive receptor (NSR-1) as part of the ESIA study. The results showed that the Project site and surrounding area have a stable and similar noise levels for daytime and nighttime since there is no noise emitting activity in the close vicinity of the Project area. The noise impact assessment included calculation of noise levels at three residential houses through noise sensitive receptors. The noise levels are calculated both for the construction and operation phases with adding the measured background levels. The proposed Project will comply with the relevant noise limits given by the Turkish regulatory limits at all sensitive receptors. However, the daytime and nighttime cumulative noise levels at the closest sensitive receptor may exceed the IFC/WB Guideline noise limits. In order to address these possible impacts the Company will develop an action plan following the construction process to further reduce noise. The report will be produced within 2 years of first operation and shall evaluate all reasonable methods to achieve IFC standards for noise levels at each receptor. Geology and Seismicity According to literature survey and observations, undifferentiated Mid-Miocene Pliocene continental sediments and Central Anatolia Granodiorites (granite, granodiorite and monzonite) and Quaternary Alluvium, constitute the lithological structures in the close vicinity of the Project site. In addition, a preliminary geotechnical study was conducted in order to assess the local geological features of the site and geotechnical laboratory tests were conducted in order to determine the engineering properties of soil and rock within the Project site. The Project site is located in the first degree earthquake zone according to the earthquake risk map prepared by General Directorate of Disaster Affairs.

ES10

Hydrogeology and Hydrology The Project site is located in Kırıkkale Province which includes the Central Anatolia Kızılırmak Basin. The formations, which have aquifer properties, are alluvium and sedimentary units like sand, gravel sandstone and conglomerates of Neocene. The major surface water courses located in the vicinity of the Project site at Kızılırmak River and Kapulukaya Dam Kızılırmak River are approximately 2.5 km to the project site and it flows in northsouth orientation in the east of the Project site. This dam reservoir is approximately 7 km to the project site. Both of these water courses may be utilized, however this will not be affected due to the proposed plant construction and operation. The quantiles of water used (circa 40-45 m3/h in winter and 90-92 m3/h in summer) will not have a material or significant impact on the water availability and flow rates. Ic Anadolu Energy will use dry Cooling systems in order to reduce water use. The use of dry cooling systems is viewed as BAT compliant by the EU IED and relevant BEF Notes as well as IFC Guidelines. In order to review the impact of the plant the Ic Anadolu Energy will monitor water usage and provide details to the local authorities when required under the relevant legislation. Flora and Fauna The Project site has terrestrial characteristics. Depending on these characteristics, generally short lived, herbaceous plants are widely distributed at the area. The forest areas are either rare or totally removed from the area. In the scope of the ESIA Study, floristic site surveys are conducted within the Project site and its vicinity. According to these surveys, two endemic plant species have been found in the Project site. However, while these two endemic species have broad distribution, it is determined that they are not local. The conservation status of these species’ is Least Concern (LC) according to IUCN. Thus, no conservation measure is suggested in ESIA. In addition, there is no record of species that have status of protected, extinct or under threat. In the in order to define aquatic life and terrestrial fauna, field surveys and literature searches are conducted. As a result of this study, 2 amphibian, 6 reptile, 32 bird and 8 mammal species are identified as most likely to exist in the proposed project site and its vicinity. All amphibian species that are likely to exist in the Project site and its close vicinity are classified as LC (Least concern) according to the IUCN Red List. Among the fauna species Nannospalax nehringi (blindmole) is classified as Data Deficient category and Testudo graeca ibera (Common Tortoise) is classified as VU (vulnerable) category according to the IUCN Red List. However, Testudo graeca ibera (Common Tortoise) are abundant and widely seen in Turkey. The Project site is not located on a major migration route. In addition, there are no endemic, vanished, threatened or under conservation fauna. These circumstances constitute the main reason of low biodiversity. Therefore, the negative effects of the proposed plant project are expected to be very limited. Ic Anadolu Energy will monitor the impacts and an assessment will be untaken within 2 years of commissioning of the plant to verify impacts. If necessary Ic Anadolu Energy will undertake studies to increase biodiversity and endeavor to limit and/or offset impacts, which result from the operation of the plant. Soil Quality and Acidification Soil samples from the Project site were analyzed for petroleum based contamination and heavy metals. The analysis results revealed that there was no petroleum based contamination and potential soil contamination due to heavy metals at the Project sire. The Project will comply with the

ES11

Soil Pollution Control Regulation and all necessary precautions will be taken to prevent potential releases to reach environment, an adverse impact to soil or groundwater is not expected during the construction and operation phases. In addition, the annual dry and wet deposition values of NOx emissions discharged from the facility are calculated by using AERMOD in order to assess the impacts of plant on soil. Total deposition value is obtained by the summation of dry and wet deposition values. Acid buffering capacity of soil is determined by the analysis of soil samples taken from the Project site. It is concluded that, acidic deposition originated from the proposed plant will not affect pH of the soil significantly. For that reason, plants in the region will not be affected by the potential acid deposition originated from the Project. Naturally Protected and Archeological Areas There are no national parks, nature reserves, natural monuments, wildlife protection areas, wildlife improvement areas and key biodiversity areas within the project site and its vicinity. In addition, there are no known or recorded archaeological, historical and cultural assets in the close vicinity of the project site. The Company will implement an ArchaeologicalChance Find procedure to reduce the possible negative impact on any cultural heritage sites. Biological Resources There are no protection areas natural parks, wetlands, natural monuments, natural protection areas, wild life protection areas, biogenetic reserve areas, biosphere reserves, natural/cultural protection areas and monuments, special protection areas, touristic areas and centers, the areas conserved as pasture land by the law within the project area. Water Supply and Wastewater During the construction phase, potable water requirement of the workers/employees, concrete curing water and water sprays to prevent dust formation will be required. The estimated amount of water consumption during the construction phase is expected to be about 600 m3/day. The potable water requirement will be supplied from the existing pipeline supplying water to Hacılar Town. The water requirement of employees during construction will be 135 m3/day. It is planned that the domestic wastewater generated during construction will be discharged to the Hacılar Municipality sewerage network if completed. In case the sewerage network is not completed, wastewater generated during construction will be collected in leakproof tanks and will be transferred by vacuum trucks of Municipality. During the operation phase, the water use will be limited to: regeneration of HRSG blowdowns and demineralization system, turbine washing and the domestic water use by employees. The proposed plant will have an air cooled condenser system thus water requirement due to process will be minimum. It is estimated that the employees will consume 9.6 m3/day water. The water requirement of the plant will be approximately 40.5 m3/hour at winter season and around 90 m3/h at summer season. Wastewater generated during the operation will be discharged to the Hacılar Municipality sewerage network after it is treated in case the sewerage network is completed.. The plant will have a wastewater treatment system which can treat chemically contaminated water, TSS, TDS and domestic wastewater. The proposed project will comply with the Turkish Water Pollution Control Regulation and the IFC/WB Guidelines and will not have any negative impact on the local environment in terms of

ES12

wastewater discharge and water supply. Hazardous and Non-Hazardous Wastes Hazardous wastes and waste oil will be generated during construction period of the Project. Hazardous waste will be collected in leak-proof containers or sealed bunded areas and removed to a licensed disposal facility by licensed transporters. Waste oils generated at site will be collected by qualified personnel from the licensed processing and disposal facilities. These wastes will be removed from the Project site in accordance with the Waste Oil Control Regulation. Waste battery and accumulators will be collected separately and will be delivered to the collection points to be established by enterprises engaged in the distribution and sales of battery products, or by municipalities in accordance with Waste Batteries and Accumulators Control Regulation. During the operation the plant will generate various types of hazardous wastes. These wastes will be stored at designated storage areas with fire prevention systems as per the requirements of the Turkish Law and with necessary precautions to prevent contamination of soil and groundwater. Hazardous wastes will be transported and disposed of by the MOEU certified disposal companies in accordance with the Hazardous Waste Control Regulation. Waste oil will be stored in leak-proof storage tanks or sealed bunded areas and analyzed by an accredited laboratory according to the Waste Oil Control Regulation. If waste oil is determined as hazardous waste, it will be transported and disposed of by licensed companies according to the Hazardous Waste Management Regulation. Waste batteries and accumulators will be collected, temporarily stored, transported and disposed in accordance with the Waste Batteries and Accumulators Control Regulation. Three-year waste management plan and waste declaration transportation forms will be prepared and submitted for hazardous waste and waste oils. The proposed Project will not create any adverse impact in the local environment due to the handling, storage, transport and disposal of the hazardous waste and waste oil generated during the construction and operation. Non-hazardous wastes will also be generated during the construction and operation periods. Recyclable wastes will be segregated from other wastes and stored temporarily on site for eventual recycling process. A sound, impermeable, rain-proofed, labeled storage area will be designated for recyclables keeping them segregated from other wastes. Excavated soil that is technically acceptable will be re-used for landscaping purposes primarily. Remaining soil, excavation waste will be transported to the sites approved by Hacılar Municipality. Necessary permits will be obtained during this process. Non-recyclable and non-hazardous solid wastes will be collected within closed bags and these wastes will be collected and properly disposed. It is estimated that negligible amount of medical waste will be generated annually since it is not planned to construct infirmary at the proposed project site. These wastes will be managed in accordance with the Medical Waste Control Regulation. Socio-Economics Socio-economic impacts of the proposed project are assessed in terms of probable income growth, employment, population movements and migration and health issues. It is estimated that nearly 900 personnel will be required for construction and most personnel will be employed from local work force to the extent possible. Due the proximity of a number of large towns and settlement in this generally industrial area, the workforce and construction contractors will be housed in dedicated accommodation provided in the surrounding areas. No construction camps will be required. It is planned that necessary material and service will be delivered using existing local opportunities. This is likely to contribute positively to the local economy. Probable income growth arising from employees working for the plant during operation period will be negligible since 60 personnel will

ES13

work during operation period. There will not be an important population movement or migration since unskilled workers during construction period will be tried to be employed from locals and 60 employees will work during operation period of the plant. There is not a directly affected community from the project as the project area is located on project owner’s land. There will be no physical resettlement associated with the proposed plant. The socio-economic impacts of the project are minor and indirect. Employment opportunity during construction and operation phases might provide positive socio-economic impact to the project area when a recruitment approach to hire construction workers from region and especially from projectaffected communities is applied.

Public Consultation and Disclosure A public participation meeting was held in order to inform people about the Project and their opinions and suggestions were obtained on April 24, 2010 and January 23, 2012 in Hacılar Town which is the nearest settlement to the Project site as required by Environmental Impact Assessment Regulation. The meeting was announced in local and national newspapers and town. Habitants from Hacılar Town and governmental institutions participated the meeting. A presentation including specifications, environmental and social impacts of the project and mitigation measures to be taken was made. Then opinions of people were received and their questions were answered. Throughout the meeting participants asked questions generally about job opportunities and environmental impacts of the Project. Consultation will also be provided during construction and operation phases of the Project and a grievance mechanism will be established for the proposed project. A SEP in line with IFC and EBRD requirements has been developed for the Project. Ic Anadolu Energy will continue with public consultations and liaison officer will be appointed for the duration of construction and subsequent operation of the plant to liaise with both the community and authorities. Occupational Health and Safety Occupational and community health and safety issues are also assessed in the scope of the ESIA study. Non-ionizing Radiation, heat, noise, confined spaces, electrical hazard, fire and explosion hazards, chemical hazards, fire, means of egress, public access, traffic safety, disease prevention issues are addressed in terms of occupational and community health and safety. All the precautions related with these issues will be taken throughout the construction and operational phases of the proposed project in accordance with the Turkish Health and Safety laws and regulations and the IFC/WB Guidelines. With the proper implementation of health and safety plans and taking the necessary precautions given in the regulations, potential accidents associated with these issues are expected to be eliminated. EHS Management Plan – Environmental and Social Action Plan (ESAP) An Environmental and Social Management Plan which addresses the impacts, significance of the impacts, mitigation measures, responsible parties, monitoring methods and frequencies and costs, is also prepared for the proposed project in the scope of the ESIA study. The Company will implement EHS management systems, inclusive of attaining certification of ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. A commissioning audit will be undertaken within 2 years of first synchronization of the plant to fully review operations. As appropriate, a corrective action plan will be developed and agreed with community, regulators, lenders and investors to ensure compliance with Turkish legislation ad IFC and EBRD performance Standards and Performance Requirements.

ES14

Apart from detailed requirements to be met during the construction and the implantation of an appropriate management system, GAMA will plan the monitoring of environmental factors for operational period. Monitoring systems will be put in place in order to determine process parameters and will include properties of fuel and media, emissions of pollutants into the air, waste management consumption of surface water used for cooling and process purposes, noise emission. CEMS for air emissions will monitor nitrogen dioxides and carbon monoxide. Ic Anadolu Energy will also undertake a noise assessment as art of the commissioning audit and as necessary develop additional measures to ensure compliance with IFC Guidelines for environmental noise within 4 years of commissioning of the plant. Any other requirements set by Turkish law in the permits will be fully implemented. Conclusion The ESIA study has demonstrated that the overall significance of potential environmental and social impacts associated with the construction, operation and decommissioning of the proposed İç Anadolu Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plant will be negligible and the Project will comply fully with all relevant Turkish Legislation as well as the requirements of the Equator Principles and the IFC Guidelines, as well as the relevant IFC and EBRD Performance Standards and Performance Requirements, with the exception of the noise exceeding at the closest sensitive receptor. Gama will undertake actions to limit the noise impact to the extent possible by Technologies that are commercially available in the market. Additional information and grievance procedure As described on the first page, Ic Anadolu Energy will accept comments on the ESIA package for 60 days from mid-July 2015. In addition, Ic Anadolu Energy will announce by the end of March the location, date, and time of one or more meetings at which anyone may speak to submit written comments.
