Ref: Significant Event

 

Dear Madam,

 

In accordance with articles 9 and 10, paragraph two, of the Securities Market Law No. 18,045, and as established under General Norm No. 30 of the Financial Market Commission, I, duly authorized, hereby inform you that yesterday the Enel Américas' Brazilian subsidiary Enel Brasil S.A. entered into a share purchase agreement with ENEVA S.A. through which, and subject to the compliance with certain conditions precedent, Enel Brasil will dispose of 100% of the shares issued by CGTF – Central Geradora Thermoelétrica Fortaleza S.A. ("Termofortaleza") owned by Enel Brasil S.A. (the "Sale").

 

Termofortaleza's main operating asset is the UTE Fortaleza, a gas-fired thermal power plant, with a maximum installed capacity of 327 MW, located in the municipality of Caucaia, State of Ceará, in the northeastern region of Brazil.

 

As payment for the Sale, Enel Brasil S.A. will receive the sum of BRL 467 million (Brazilian reais), equivalent to approximately USD 96 million, subject to positive or negative adjustments, according to the terms of the agreement between the parties. In addition to this amount, the parties have agreed on a payment mechanism based on Termofortaleza's commercial performance in the future that could total up to BRL 97 million, equivalent to approximately USD 20 million.

 

This operation is part of the Company's decarbonization policy and was contemplated in the assumptions of the Strategic Plan 2022-2024 presented to the market by Enel Americas last November.

 

As a result of this operation, it is estimated that Enel Américas will have to record a loss in its consolidated net results of approximately USD 162 million. This amount does not include the additional income that is subject to the commercial performance of Termofortaleza, indicated above.

 

Yours truly,

 

Maurizio Bezzeccheri

Chief Executive Officer

Enel Américas S.A.
