12 ÇİMSA ÇİMENTO SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. ANNUAL REPORT 2011 Message from the Chairman 10 Dear Business Partners, The effects of the crisis in global financial markets that started in the last quarter of 2008, coming, in 2009, to affect especially the productive sectors of the world's developed economies, continued to be felt during Both the uncertainties and the downside risks in the global markets continued to increase during the first half of The slowdown in developed countries' economic growth and uncertainties about the future reduced domestic demand in these countries. While the expected growth of the developed countries' economies for 2011 is around 1.6%, this figure is forecast to be as high as 6.2% for the economies of developing countries. The Turkish economy grew by 8.5% during Although the most important risk for the Turkish economy during 2011 was the current account deficit and the low quality of the financial markets, significant steps towards improvement were taken during the last quarter in regards to the management of the current account deficit. The construction sector grew by 11.2% by the end of The contribution of the sector to GDP increased to 5.8% as of This sector, now employing around 2 million people, rose to 8% of the nation's total employment. Cement Sector Continues to Grow In 2011, the world's total cement consumption was around 3.6 billion tonnes. The developing countries were once again the engine of the world s cement market. While developed countries' cement consumption increased by 2%, in the developing countries it grew by 7% (excluding China). The global cement demand is expected to run parallel to economic growth during Cement consumption increased from 50.5 million* tonnes in 2010 to 55.8 million* tonnes in During 2012, cement consumption is expected to grow by 5% due to a range of infrastructure, housing and urban transformation projects.the consumption per capita reached 758 kg in 2011 and is expected to increase to 785 kg by the end of The sectors' capacity continued to be greater than the domestic demand throughout The surplus of the capacity over domestic demand continued to be successfully exported, despite difficulties in foreign markets and political uncertainties in the Middle Eastern and North African markets. For 2011, Turkey's total exports reached 14.1 million tonnes. The negative effects on the export markets of the political uncertainty in the Middle East and North Africa is expected to continue but to a decreasing extent during An examination of our country's main segments' cement consumption reveals that 50-55% of the consumption goes to housing projects, 35% for infrastructure projects and the remaining 15% is consumed by other construction projects. The prioritization of energy and transportation infrastructure will ensure that Turkey's economic growth is sustainable and will ensure that the distribution of cement consumption becomes more balanced. The factors that will trigger growth in the future will be investments in urban transformation, energy and transportation infrastructure.the aim of urban transformation projects is to prevent *This is an estimation made by the company using data from the Turkish Cement Manufacturers Association and adding in the estimated sales of the manufacturers that are not members of the association.

13 unplanned urbanization and to ensure compliance with earthquake regulations and standardization processes in Turkey. Çimsa, one of the cement sector's most profitable companies, increased its consolidated turnover by 13% to million TL and its consolidated operating profit by 12.5% to million TL. Being a leader in the Turkish white cement market, Çimsa is one of the most important brands in this area worldwide. Thanks to its foreign terminals, it operates as a genuine global player in the export market. I believe that 2012 will also be a successful year for Çimsa and I extend my sincere gratitude to everyone who has contributed to the leadership, the strong market position, the profitability and all of the successful operations that have led the sector to view Çimsa as the unique company that it is. Best Regards, Mehmet GöçmenChairman Innovative and Environmentally- Friendly Projects from Çimsa Since 2010, Çimsa has focused on sustainability management. 11 The main goals of Çimsa for the next ten years are to create real long term added value for shareholders, to make contributions to society and to ensure a sustainable environment.

20 ÇİMSA ÇİMENTO SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. ANNUAL REPORT 2011 An Assessment of the Cement Industry for The differentiation trend between the developed and the developing countries that started in 2010 continued in While the demand for cement in developing countries is generally low compared to developed countries, it has increased significantly. While developed countries' cement consumption increased by 2%, in the developing countries consumption grew by 7% (excluding China) in The global players in the concrete market were affected by the stagnation in the developed markets, the political developments in the Middle East and North Africa and the increase in energy prices and therefore could not improve their profit margins. While, in 2011, the cement sector contracted by 3% in the Middle East and by 5% in South Africa, it grew by 6% in Northern Europe, 4% in the Middle East and Africa and by 6% in Latin America. However, eastern Europe became the region with the highest growth in the world with a growth rate of 10%. In 2011, Turkey's construction sector grew by 15.3% in the first quarter, 13% in the second quarter, 10.2% in the third quarter and 7% in the fourth quarter, reaching a total growth of 11.2% in Turkey is the largest cement producer in Europe and the fourth largest worldwide, after China, the USA and India. In total, 65 facilities operate in the Turkish cement industry, 48 of which are integrated facilities and 17 are grinding and packing facilities. In 2011, cement production in Turkey was 63 million* tonnes and cement consumption was 56 million* tonnes. The industry's surplus capacity, after domestic demand was satisfied, was exported. However the social and political turbulence in the Middle East and North Africa, especially during the first quarter of 2011, caused a decrease in Turkey's total cement and clinker exports. Total cement and clinker exports for 2011 decreased by 24% in comparison to 2010, coming to 14.3 million tonnes. The cement sector, being aware of its environmental responsibilities, works to have an active role in extending sustainable growth while, at the same time, continuing to grow economically. Sustainable growth, within the regulatory framework of EU compliance, was an important topic throughout 2011, as it was in The use of waste fuel, alternative raw materials, the discharge of waste water and the prevention of soil pollution are each serious and important topics that our country pays a great deal of attention to in order to decrease total energy costs and carbon emissions. *This is an estimation made by the company using data from the Turkish Cement Manufacturers Association and then adding in the estimated sales of those manufacturers that are not members of the association.

21 In 2011, Turkey's cement production was 63 million * tonnes and its cement consumption was 56 million * tonnes. 19

22 ÇİMSA ÇİMENTO SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. ANNUAL REPORT 2011 Domestic Cement Facilities 20 Mersin Plant's First Facility Production Line.This facility started production in It features a rotary kiln 5.25 m in diameter and 83 m long. In 1983 the facility was modernized by the addition of a coal grinding and burning system to reduce its fuel costs. The facility has two crushers, one pre-homogenization facility, two ball mills for raw materials, two raw meal silos and two closed clinker stock halls. In the first quarter of 2010 the facility was further modernized. The current planet-type clinker cooling system was replaced and a FLS SF-Cooler type grate cooler system was installed. After this investment, the plant s production capacity reached approximately 3,700 tonnes/day, compared to a previous 3,400 tonnes/day. In addition, the total heat consumption required for the production of clinker has been reduced. Furthermore, this system has significantly contributed to the first facility's de-dusting practices. The Second Facility's Production Line. The second facility s rotary kiln, commissioned in December 1989, is capable of producing both grey and white clinker. It has a diameter of 3.6 m and a length of 49 m.

This facility, capable of producing both grey and white clinker according to the saled demand; it has a grey clinker production capacity of 1,845 tonnes/ day and a white clinker production capacity of 1,470 tonnes/day. The power generated by the Waste Heat Power Generation Project at Çimsa's Mersin Plant will supply the 50% of the total power requirement of the First and the Second facilities. In addition to meeting part of the power requirement, this project also contributes to the environment with reducing carbon emission. The Third Facility's Production Line.With a rotary kiln 3.75 m in diameter and 57 m long, the Hacı Sabancı White Cement Production Facility began operating in December The Third Facility has a production capacity of 1,750 tonnes/ day. The facility contains a crusher, a raw material mill with pre-homogenization facilities, a coal mill, a raw meal silo, a rotary kiln and a clinker stock hall. The Calcium Aluminate Cement Production FacilityThis facility, commissioned in 2002, has two kilns giving it a clinker production capacity of two tonnes/hour. This facility also features a cement mill with a grinding capacity of five tonnes/hour, and a packaging unit. In 2007, with the commissioning of a second kiln having a clinker production capacity of two tonnes/hour, the facility's production capacity was increased. In addition, after a packaging unit was installed in 2009, the products are now offered to customers in packages of 25 kg, in pallets, and in large bags of 1.5 tonnes. The Paper Bag Plant. In 2011, 27.2 million paper bags were produced by the Mersin paper bag plant. These were used in the Mersin, Kayseri, Niğde, Eskişehir and Ankara Plants. The investments in the Mersin plant with the aim to increase sustainability and to protect the environment continued in The Mersin Plant also has four cement mills, three of which are ball mills, the other being a vertical mill.

23 The Kayseri Plant.The Çimsa Kayseri Plant was established in 1992 by Akçimento, a Sabancı Holding company and was acquired by Çimsa in It has an annual cement grounding and packaging capacity of 1.6 million tonnes. A pregrinding system was added to the cement mill in 2005 to improve the cement grinding capacity and to reduce the energy consumption. In order to turn the facility into an integrated cement plant, the construction of clinker production line was started on October 9, After the completion of the construction, installation and commissioning operations, the plant's first clinker production took place on 26 December Equipped with state of the art technologies, the facility's main unit consists of an ILC type low NOx emission pre-calcination system, a pre-heater with five stages of cyclones and a rotary kiln 55 m long and 3.60 m in diameter. With a clinker production capacity of 2,300 tonnes/day, this facility also features a raw material crusher, pre-homogenization facilities for both clay and limestone, one coal ball mill, one vertical raw meal mill and two cement ball mills. The Kayseri Plant produces puzzolanic cement at the TS EN 197 CEM IV /B (P) 32.5 R standard. In the production of this cement, trass is used as an additive. The Kayseri trass drying project enables the drying of trass. This means that damp trass, extracted from a quarry only 10.3 kilometers away, can now be used instead of trass formerly provided from a quarry 180 kilometers away. absence of any additional fuel consumed in order to dry the trass. The Kayseri Plant became the first firm in the cement sector to obtain a TS EN Power Management Certificate, a certificate awarded only to firms that have implemented an effective power management system and system procedures. This again demonstrates the leading role that Çimsa plays in the sector in the reduction of costs and the elimination of greenhouse gas emissions. Noting that respect for the environment is an integral part of sustainability, in September 2011 Çimsa's Kayseri Plant succeeded in becoming the first cement factory to obtain an Environmental Permit and License for Waste Water Discharge, Air Emission and Waste Incineration.

In September 2007, a completely new coal vertical mill system was commissioned. This could serve both production lines and has a capacity of 40 tonnes/hour. The old coal systems were decommissioned. In January 2008, a completely new second production line was commissioned. This line had a similar structure to that of the current Kayseri plant, a capacity of 2,300 tonnes/day, bringing the plant s total production capacity to 4,050 tonnes/day. The Eskişehir Cement Plant became a modern production facility following the installation of its raw material crusher and a raw material prehomogenization system which were both installed in January 2008, at the same time as the second production line. The plant's cement silos were installed in The plant also features three ball cement mills used for production of the final cement product. With the installation of new, modern electro-filters on the first and second facilities' rotary kiln lines during 2007 and 2008 respectively, the Eskişehir plant s dust emissions have now been significantly reduced. In addition, the dust cyclone on the line that fed hot gas from the second facility to the new coal mill has been replaced with a more efficient cyclone. Dust leakages from the plant have been reduced by the renewal and modernization of the plant s raw material and clinker hall. It is Çimsa s goal to become one of Turkey s leading waste disposal companies. The Hotdisc Project (Waste Supply and Waste Energy Recovery) was carried out at the Eskişehir Plant as part of this plan. The Hotdisc Project will control, both, the kiln s processes and its overall product quality, in addition to generating from waste 30% of its total calorific consumption. The Niğde Plant.Established in 1957, the Niğde Cement Plant started production in 1964 following the completion of its production line. At the time it was a wet system with a capacity of 85,000 tonnes/year. The plant's total production capacity was increased to 350,000 tonnes/year after the commissioning of its second production line, a dry system, on September 2, Over the following years, the wet system clinker line was shut down because it had reached the end of its economic and technological life, while production continued using the dry system s rotary kiln. After the privatization of the plant, the kiln s capacity of 850 tonnes/day was increased to 1,240 tonnes/ day following investments made during 1993 including thereplacement of the rotary kiln unit's cyclone, a modernization of its transport, cooling and burning systems, and the replacement of its exhaust gas fan and its electro-filter.

25 Pursuant to the Competition Authority s ruling regarding the termination of the Sabancı and Oyak partnership, the Oysa Niğde Cement Plant was renamed to the Çimsa Çimento San. ve Tic. A.Ş. Niğde Cement Plant as of November the 1st, 2007, continuing production under this name. After it was acquired by Çimsa, many production and energy efficiency improvements were made at the Niğde Cement Plant and it has currently reached a clinker production capacity of 1,380 tonnes/day. In addition to the rotary kiln with its four-stage pre-heater and grate cooler, a diameter of 3.8 m and a length of 52 m, the plant has one production line and one hammer crusher, one ball raw meal mill, a vertical coal mill and a cement mill with a single roller press grinding system. Always developing innovative products to satisfy every one of its customers needs, in 2010 Çimsa created and began producing its "Super Bims" Cement at its Niğde Plant. Four different groups using the 6-sigma methodology were established in order to increase efficiency in different areas and a number of significant efficiency results were achieved. Seeing the environment and sustainable growth as priorities in all its activities, the facility proved this sensitivity by planting 16,000 trees during The Ankara Lalahan Cement Grinding and Packing Facility.The construction of Ankara Lalahan Cement Grinding and Packing Facility started in January 2001 and it was commissioned in July In 2005, it was acquired by Çimsa along with the Eskişehir Cement Plant. As the Ankara Plant does not have a rotary kiln, clinker supplied from other Çimsa Plants is ground and converted into cement here before being sold. The Ankara Cement Grinding and Packing Facility has a single cement mill with a capacity of 85 tonnes/hour, one raw material crusher, two cement silos and a packing unit. The Marmara Rota Port Cement Packing Facility.Located at the Kocaeli Yarımca Gulf Rota Port, the Marmara Facility has been leased by Çimsa in June It has an installed silo capacity of 5,000 tonnes, and a bagged and bulk cement packing/loading capacity of 100 tonnes/hour. Çimsa Super White Cement is sent from Mersin in bulk and stored in facility's 5,000 tonne horizontal silo. The Marmara Facility was leased especially to be closer to the company's customers in the Marmara Region; from the facility white cement is sold both in bulk and packaged. The Malatya Cement Packing Facility. Established in 1996 near the Malatya Battalgazi Train Station, the Malatya Cement Packing Facility has a processing and packing capacity of 60,000 tonnes/year. At the facility there are three cement silos with a total capacity of 900 tonnes. Cement is sold here both packaged and in bulk. 23

28 ÇİMSA ÇİMENTO SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. ANNUAL REPORT 2011 Cement Types Manufacturing special types of cement, including White Cement and Calcium Aluminate Cement, Çimsa is consistently innovative, continuing to lead the market due its flexible, customized products and services. 26 Portland Cement.Complying with the TS EN CEM I 42.5R standard and containing high levels of C3S, Portland Cement ensures high resistance development. It is the most commonly used type of cement in high-resistance concrete types and in multi-storey constructions. It is particularly preferred in prestressed, prefabricated implementations and used in tunnel formwork systems in housing concretes. Çimsa s Puzzolanic Cement has been EC certified by the Council for Quality and the Environment (CQE), giving it the right to display the CE trademark. composed of around 35% very finely ground volatile cinder and limestone. This very fine additional backfill material fills the micro-pores in the concrete, increasing the concrete's impermeability as it is compressed. The siliceous volatile cinder utilized in the manufacture of Portland Composite Cement accelerates the concrete s internal reactions as it sets, increasing the resultant concrete s resistance against exterior impacts thus ensuring that its final pressure tolerance is high. Çimsa's Portland Composite Cement has the TS EN 197-1:2002 CEM II/A-M (PL) 42.5 R standard marking and contains portland clinker, and maximum 21% puzzolana and limestone. It is classified as one of cements having the highest early resistance in its class. While its hydration temperature is low, its early resistance is high. Çimsa s Puzzolanic Cement has been EC certified by the Council for Quality and the Environment (CQE), giving it the right to display the CE trademark. Portland Composite CementPortland Composite Cement is in the high-early resistance cement group, in compliance with the TS EN CEM IIB-M (V-L) 32.5R standard. In addition to Portland Cement, it is Puzzolanic CementPuzzolanic Cement is developed through a process of grinding its mineral additives (puzzolana) with a specific proportion of Portland Cement clinker and limestone to a degree specified (maximum 55%) in its TS EN 197-1:2002 CEM IV/B (P) 32.5 R standard. Çimsa s Puzzolanic Cement has been EC certified by the Council for Quality and the Environment (CQE), giving it the right to display the CE trademark. During the concrete s testing processes, its water: cement ratio is relatively high. Thanks to its high levels of concrete agents, its

29 hydration temperature remains low; however, it has greatly elevated levels of resistance to alkali-aggregate reactions and to other external chemical reactions. Puzzolanic Cement is generally utilized in construction, repair works, plastering and in the manufacture of construction chemicals. Sulphate Resistant CementTS SDÇ 32.5 R cement is obtained by grinding SDÇ clinker with a precise ratio of C3A and C4AF, together with a specified amount of limestone. The declaration of conformity of Sulphate Resistant Cement against its affiliated standard (TS 10157) has been approved, in accordance with the Ordinance on National Regulations (Nr: YİG-15/2006-7) that is binding on all construction materials that are not required to hold a CE trademark but that are covered by the Construction Materials Ordinance ( 89 / 106 / EEC). Çimsa EkoHarç is easy to use in implementations that do not require pressure resistance, such as masonry and alum plastering. Interacting directly with the end user in affordable, long lasting and high quality constructions, this is an ecologically and environment friendly product, a product that generates much lower levels of gas emissions than cements or limestone products. Mortar Cement (MC 12.5 X) is a finely ground, homogenous and water-proof connector that, to enhance its resistance, contains at least 40% inorganic components, including Portland Cement clinker and natural puzzolana. Its components neither increase the corrosion rate on any metal parts in contact with the mortar, nor do they deteriorate under the impact of fire. Its classification under the Turkish standards system is TS 22-1 ENV The proportion of C3A (tricalcium aluminate) in Sulphate Resistant Cement is limited to 5% while its total C4AF + 2*C3A is limited to 25%. The preparation of raw materials and the furnacing techniques applied to this concrete shows slight differences in comparison to gray clinkers. Only few plants manufacture this type of concrete. As this type of cement is effectively inert against sulphate-containing waters, it is utilized in harbors, waste water facilities, dams, underground flood channels, irrigation channels and in refinery facilities. It is a type of cement suitable for any construction that requires substantial resistance to chemical reactions, including environments that interact with seawater or sulphates. Its 28-day resistance measurement is above that of the 42.5 R resistance class, falling between 46 and 50 N/mm 2. Mortar Cement (EkoHarç).Offering a high adhesive power, Çimsa s EkoHarç enables the production of a high breaking strength mortar plaster. Reducing the risk of thermal stress through its low contraction and hydration parameters, the mortars and plasters developed with Çimsa s EkoHarç also display high levels of resistance due their low water permeability. Requiring only silica and water, this is a product that enables the quick and easy production of a mortar of plaster, without the usage of any lime. The amount of air contained within the fresh mortar once it is mixed with the Mortar Cement (MC 12.5 X) is 4% by volume. The EkoHarç Mortar Cement has a water retention value of 85%. The specified air content ensures an adequate level of bonding, while its water retention value ensures proper performance and cohesion at either low or high degrees of saturation. The resistance values for cement with a ratio water:mortar ratio of 0.5 are 12.5 N/mm for seven days and 22.5 N/mm for 28 days. Mortar Cement (MC 12.5 X) blends at a suitable rate of malleability after mixing in only an amount of water and silica appropriate for the task at hand, without the requirement for any further additives. For all sorts of fine construction work - including plastering, ground alum, mosaics, hothouses, weatherresistant moldings, wall and floor tiles, glazed tiles and natural stones - Mortar Cement (MC 12.5 X) only requires the mixing in of the correct amounts of silica and water. As a component of alum concretes it results in lower risk stress due to its low contractile qualities; as an ingredient of external plasters it exhibits elevated resilience against humidity and harsh climactic conditions; in internal plasters it ensures smoothness, rigidness and respiration. 27
