As we have indicated in previous statements, with regard to the finalization of the 1st private GSM operator tender in Iran to which we are a party through our stake in Irancell Consortium, the Iranian Telecommunication Ministry had set November 21, 2005 as the deadline for both our Company and the local partners of the Irancell Consortium. We have also previously stated that we would work towards finalization of the Irancell project together with our local partners within the provided timeframe and that although our efforts to finalize an acceptable structure among the consortium members of Irancell continued, the issue still remained unsettled as of the previously stated November 21, 2005 deadline.
In various news sources today, it has been reported that the first private GSM operator tender in Iran has been provided to the Irancell Consortium, in which Turkcell does not now have a stake. Turkcell has initiated a legal action regarding the tender procedures for this tender. Currently we have not been notified by the Iranian Authorities regarding this matter..
In case any material development occurs with regards to this subject, Turkcell will make necessary announcement according to the Circular VIII, No: 39 of the Capital Markets Board regulations.
We hereby confirm that the above-mentioned explanations are furnished as per the provisions of the Communiqué Serial no VIII/39, that they reflect all information we have gathered so far, that they are in accordance with our corporate documents, that we have used all endeavours to collect the complete and true related information and that we assume the responsibility for this disclosure.
