Ref.: Communicating Significant Event
Dear Sir,
In accordance with articles 9 and 10, paragraph 2 under Securities Market Law No. 18,045, and as established under General Norm No. 30 of said Commission, I, duly authorized, hereby inform you of the following Significant Event: that the Board of Directorsof Enel Américas S.A. ("Enel Américas" or the "Company"), in a session held today, unanimously agreed to suggest the following adjustment in relation to the capital increase to be discussed at the Company’s Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting to be held on April 30, 2019, in San Isidro No. 74 street, in the borough and City of Santiago, immediately after the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting.
After an intense financial marketing activity and after having gathered the relevant market opinions with the view to obtaining the widest possible consensus and support in relation to the transaction, it has been suggested that the shareholders should agree on the sum of US$ 3,000,000,000 (three billion US dollars) as the amount of the capital increase whose aim will be to permit Enel Brasil S.A. to pay Enel Finance International N.V., a loan made by the last and which replaced Enel Brazil S.A.’s debt with banks, linked to the acquisition of the Brazilian company Eletropaulo Metropolitana Eletricidade de Sao Paulo S.A., as well as the restructuring that company’s pension fund liabilities.
The resulting improvement of the Company’s capital structure will allow it to take advantage of investment opportunities through mergers and acquisitions and minority investors buyout.
Yours truly
Domingo Valdés Prieto
Legal Counsel
