| While
the Ata Group of companies has today moved into many different business
sectors, its roots can be traced back to 1969 and the establishment of
Seri İnşaat. The philosophies of the Group arise
from this auspicious birth, principles that are in action today in all
Group companies. Initially, Seri İnşaat, as one of the three shareholders
of Ata İnşaat, took on the daunting task of constructing the Atatürk Dam
and Hydroelectric Power Plant, a US$ 1.25 billion project within the Southeastern
Anatolian Project (GAP). Stunning contemporaries in the field, this enormous
project was completed in approximately 50 months, shattering world records
and setting the foundation for other enormous construction projects by
the Group. |

| The
Group reaches into many diversified business sectors such as: construction,
finance, technology, food, tourism and foreign trade. Diversification
of this type immunizes the Group against possible fluctuations in market
conditions. The Group has become increasingly more involved in retail
businesses, including fast food, with exclusive representation rights
for Burger King USA in Turkey. |

| Thirty
years of exemplary service in all the arenas of trade that have been addressed
by the Group have set the tone for the march into the future. The Group
is at the forefront of this drive to bring together the past, present
and future business culture of Turkey. |
