4 Message from the Chairman Ever since its foundation, İndeks continues to work collaboratively with competent teams valuing their careers, believing in importance of content management, using the communication tools professionally. İndeks was founded in On one hand it pursued its transformation and improvement by integrating the innovations in communications to its production and service mentality, on the other hand it worked on sustainability without conceding the principles and targets it set as goals in the first day. We are proud to share our first annual report having that working mentality with you. As İndeks, we believe that communication with content increases the living standards of communities, the improvements in communication spread the realms of freedom and we further believe that democracies can improve through content communication. We firmly believe that the lack of access to information is the most significant reason for the inequality in our country and we see that information does not evolve into qualified education. A significant amount of our women is illiterate. Unfortunately, a significant part of our society has difficulties understanding the things they read. Nevertheless, the communication tools and their usage, currency, impact and variety is more than many places in the world. The past 10 years made us witness a revolutionary change in communication. We live and let live 24/7. Whilst proceeding our work without facing boundaries thanks to technology, our most important topic, and also our opportunity and problem remain the same: Information. Accessing information is easy, but accessing it as quality and reliable content is harder than ever. İndeks was founded with the aim of creating and managing content. It has accomplished successful projects in the past 10 years, crowning its success with award winning projects. It built its whole concentration on quality content. It developed tools, it sailed to innovation without fear, and it never avoided to try or grasp the right thing. İndeks has focused its works on corporate communication on four basic activities; Periodicals, mainly corporate communication tools Non periodicals, communication tools serving corporate or investor relationships Consultancy on communication and content measurement, innovative communication tools measuring the quality of content both qualitatively and quantitatively. Speakers Agency of the Spokesperson, communication tools, which face to face communication, the most efficient communication form of all, requires. In the forthcoming pages, you shall find details about our work. We tried to reflect the truths of our projects, the importance of our projects for our associates and its benefits for the sector. We simultaneously intensified our works in the national and international area. We have spread to all sectors and we created and managed content in a huge variety from telecom to iron and steel, food, finance, health, real estate. We do not depend on specific media in our work. Prints, electronically-digital, face-to-face... The target of our strong and unrivalled content, the timing, frequency, tonality, content, length, language and the medium used depending on the needs and the level of comprehension of the target audience, are what is important for us. Whilst preparing this annual report, we asked for our associates to share their experiences. Hereby we thank them. Why to share the experience? Experience sharing being the improving and creative trend that it become in the last few years, is able to express the cause-effect relationship in the eyes of the experiencing party in an efficient manner, it further supports the trust of collaboration and the prestige of the institution. Our goal is to produce accurate, reliable and accessible information, and to provide the sustainability of the quality of content in our services and products in the name of corporate governance. Best Regards, Yaprak ÖZER / Chairman of the Board 5

Content Creation in Electronic Publications Metin Salt Vestek General Manager, Vestel Group of Companies The technological developments, which I follow due to my occupation, are developing especially in the past few years, with the means of satisfying the need of people and institutions to communicate. In a realm, where communication has expanded to individual publishing, such as in Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare and the like, we require more than our own experience in order to bring this up to a new level. In these circumstances, it was inevitable for me to meet Yaprak Özer and the firm İndeks under her leadership. Zorlu Magazine, which we publish under the roof of Zorlu Group, and the Vestel newsletter we distribute via s and the works we did for Vestel annual report, have shifted to innovative topics such as content creation for new era internet based visual systems within a short period of time. İndeks has become one of the few institutions in this sector, which I appreciate, especially through their courageous endeavors and their socially responsible approach. İndeks, being existent in almost all the platforms of communication, from digital publishing to printed publishing, corporate and individual publishing, television broadcast and speaker agency, is providing us as a company the infrastructure for us to develop joint projects for us to exchange ideas in diverse fields of communication. The dynamic sector, in which we operate, requires our business partners to be equally dynamic and fit to adapt to change rapidly. A versatile and enterprising team is able to create new ideas, thus guiding us. Hereby I congratulate the 10th anniversary of İndeks, who managed to abide in the sector and kept the bar raised. 27 The advantage of e-magazines can be summarized as the rich resources in terms of forms to offer information. Electronic publishing offering the chance to make multimedia presentations, video footage and animations, the opportunity to make audio and interactive presentations provide an added value in terms of richness in presentation. İndeks is bringing the sector to the future with its electronic publishing services and continuing to accomplish leading works with its pioneering vision. İndeks, following the The Tivibu magazine, which started to get issued with traditional features, has shifted to all smart devices in short time after being published in web. technological developments and global trends in depth, is offering different channels to the institutions it works with, thus continuing to successfully manage the process of transferring traditional publishing to electronic environment. The transition from printed format to electronic format, which İndeks anticipated afore is an unquestionable necessity of today. İndeks, believing in the importance of the usage of suitable channels for the target audience, hits the nail on the head by implementing projects which launches electronic versions alongside the printed works it transferred to electronic environment. İndeks having a vision of publishing customizable for the needs, provides access to information regardless of time and place by using the latest technology. İndeks leads the way by enabling the publishing in electronic environments to be displayed in computers, smart phones, tablets and televisions. İndeks, integrating the technological advantages of electronic environment to its publishing and enriching its publication content with multimedia features, makes sure that the projects it prepares are the center of attention. It prevents the project to be lost in the immense internet environment without getting noticed through its strong social channel networks and experience. Electronic content anyone may reach at any given time in Internet environment also provides the opportunity to be read 24/7, to be simultaneously displayed by several users at once, and to be shared infinitely. Alongside all of these advantages, the electronic publications offering the institutions a cost advantage provide a significant amount of savings in the keywords printing and distribution. Electronic publications provide communication that is economic, widespread, fast, recorded and measureable. Electronic publications can exceed borders.
