estimated to be 72.6 million.

Republic for or in respect of money borrowed or raised,
in an amount in aggregate of not less than $40,000,000
(or its equivalent in other currencies), becomes due and

option of the Republic or any amount of such External

paid when due or, as the case may be, within any
applicable grace period any Further Note may be declared

this Prospectus.

interests in the Permanent Global Note is improperly
withheld or refused. In addition, interest payments in
respect of the Further Notes cannot be collected without
such certification of non-U.S. beneficial ownership. The

case of interest, from the appropriate Relevant Date as
defined in Condition 7 (Taxation) of this Prospectus.

Use of Proceeds ......................................................... The net proceeds of the issue of the Further Notes,

expected to amount to Euro 547,306,917.81 will be used
for the general funding purposes of the Republic.

Risk Factors .............................................................. Risks associated with the Further Notes generally include:

1) the trading market for debt securities may be volatile
and may be adversely impacted by many events; 2) there
could be no active trading market for the Further Notes;
3) the Further Notes may not be a suitable investment for
all investors; 4) the Further Notes are unsecured; 5) the
terms of the Further Notes may be modified, waived or
substituted without the consent of all of the holders; 6) it
is possible that the Further Notes may be held in amounts
in excess of Euro 50,000 (or its equivalent) that are not
integral multiples of Euro 50,000 (or its equivalent). In
such a case a Noteholder who, as a result of selling
Further Notes with a denomination of Euro 50,000 or
more, holds a principal amount of less than Euro 50,000
may not receive a definitive Further Note in respect of
such holding (should definitive Further Notes be printed)
and would need to purchase a principal amount of Further
Notes such that its holding amounts to the minimum
denomination of Euro 50,000; 7) English law in effect as
at the date of this Prospectus may be modified; 8) there
may be certain legal restraints in relation to investment in
the Further Notes with regard to the particular
circumstances of any investor.

Risks associated with the Republic generally include: 1)
there can be no assurance that Turkey's credit ratings will
not change; 2) changes in the Republic's domestic and
international political and economic environment may
have a negative effect on its financial condition; 3) it may
be difficult to refinance the Republic's existing debt due
to the relatively short maturity structure of its domestic
borrowing and the potential deterioration in financing
conditions; 4) potential inflation risks; 5) risks associated

8

with Turkey's current account deficit; 6) risks associated
with the foreign exchange rate of the Republic's currency;
7) risks associated with delays or other adverse
developments in the Republic's accession to the European
Union which may have a negative impact on the
Republic's economic performance and credit ratings; 8)
the Republic is a foreign sovereign state and accordingly
it may be difficult to obtain or enforce judgments against
it; 9) risks associated with pending arbitration
proceedings; and 10) risks associated with external
shocks such as the current global economic crisis.

Fiscal Agency

Agreement ................................................................. The Further Notes will be issued pursuant to the fiscal

agency agreement dated November 12, 2010.

Taxation..................................................................... For a discussion of the tax consequences associated with

the Further Notes, see "Taxation" in this Prospectus.
Investors should consult their own tax advisors in
determining the tax consequences to them of the
purchase, ownership and disposition of the Further Notes.

Governing Law ......................................................... The Further Notes and all non-contractual obligations

arising out of or in connection with them will be governed
by the laws of England.

Where a claim relating to the information contained in the Prospectus is brought before a court in a
Member State of the European Economic Area, the plaintiff may, under the national legislation of the

RISK FACTORS{ TC "RISK FACTORS" \f C \l "1" }
You should read this entire Prospectus carefully. Words and expressions defined elsewhere in this
Prospectus have the same meanings in this section. Investing in the Further Notes involves certain risks. In
addition, the purchase of the Further Notes may involve substantial risks and be suitable only for investors
who have the knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to enable them to evaluate the risks
and merits of an investment in the Further Notes. You should make your own inquiries as you deem
necessary without relying on the Republic or any underwriter and should consult with your financial, tax,
legal, accounting and other advisers, prior to deciding whether to make an investment in the Further Notes.
You should consider, among other things, the following:

Risks Relating to the Further Notes

The trading market for debt securities may be volatile and may be adversely impacted by many events.

The market for the Further Notes issued by the Republic is influenced by economic and market conditions
and, to varying degrees, interest rates, currency exchange rates and inflation rates in the United States and
Europe and other industrialized countries. There can be no assurance that events in Turkey, the United States,
Europe or elsewhere will not cause market volatility or that such volatility will not adversely affect the price
of the Further Notes or that economic and market conditions will not have any other adverse effect.

There may be no active trading market for the Further Notes.

There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Further Notes will develop, or, if one does
develop, that it will be maintained. If an active trading market for the Further Notes does not develop or is not
maintained, the market or trading price and liquidity of the Further Notes may be adversely affected. If the
Further Notes are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount to their initial offering price,
depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, general economic conditions and
the financial condition of the Republic. Although an application will be made to list on the Official List and
trade the Further Notes on the Regulated Market "Bourse de Luxembourg" of the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange, there is no assurance that such application will be accepted or that an active trading market will
develop.

The Further Notes may not be a suitable investment for all investors.

You must determine the suitability of investment in the Further Notes in the light of your own
circumstances. In particular, you should:

(i) have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the Further Notes and
the merits and risks of investing in the Further Notes;

(ii) have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its
particular financial situation, an investment in the Further Notes and the impact the Further Notes will
have on your overall investment portfolio;

(iii) have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the
Further Notes, including where the currency for principal or interest payments is different from your
currency;

(iv) understand thoroughly the terms of the Further Notes and be familiar with the behaviour of any
relevant indices and financial markets; and

(v) be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible scenarios for
economic, interest rate and other factors that may affect your investment and your ability to bear the
applicable risks.
