The Company has given the advertisement for disposal of LOT-1 GT-3&4 (with their respective HRSGs) dated November 30,2024 newspapers, which is subject to corporate approvals of the Company.

c) Cost; | The specific cost of Lot-1 is not separately available, as it was transferred from WAPDA to the Company during privatization in 1996 as part of the entire plant. However, the estimated cost attributed to Lot-1 is approximately PKR 4.03 billion. |

| Utilization of Proceeds: The proceeds from the sale will be utilized to optimize the Company's resources and may be directed towards funding other strategic and operational initiatives.

This strategic divestment is expected to deliver long-term value to shareholders. |
Basis of Valuation and Other Considerations:
Lot-1 Disposal Summary:
Lot-1 comprises two gas turbines Fiat Italy (GT-3 and GT-4) and two Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSGs). Gas turbines GT-3 and GT-4 were commissioned in 1987 and are part of the least efficient block in the company, with an efficiency of only 40.3%. Consequently, NTDC had retired GT-3 and GT-4 in the IGCEP 2022-2023 plan.
To assess the value of the plant, KAPCO engaged Joseph Lobo (Private) Limited for an independent valuation. Their assessment was based on available plant and machinery data, estimated material weights, and a detailed analysis of prevailing market trends and supply-demand dynamics. In parallel, KAPCO also conducted an internal evaluation, using the available data and engineering expertise to estimate the weight and value of the components.
Tender notices for the disposal of Lot-1 were published in both local and international newspapers in December 2024. Despite international tendering efforts, no interest was received from foreign parties.
Considering the bids received, Joseph Lobo's valuation, KAPCO's internal assessment, and the current market conditions, the decision was made to proceed with the disposal of Lot-1.
Interest of Directors:
The directors of the Company have no personal interests, directly or indirectly, in the special business except to the extent of their shareholding.
The following resolutions are proposed to be passed as special resolutions:
RESOLVED that the consent of shareholders of Kot Addu Power Company Limited (the "Company") be and is hereby accorded to the disposal of Plant and machinery of the Company comprising Lot-1 (Gas Turbines (GT-3 and GT-4)) along with associated parts and components to M/s Rizwan Steel (Private) Limited at a price of Rs. 800 million (Rupee Eight Hundred Millions only) subject to requisite approval(s) as per details given in statement of material facts.
