Ref.: Significant Event
Dear Sir,
In accordance with articles 9 and 10, paragraph 2 under Securities Market Law N°18,045, and as established under General Norm N° 30 of said Commission, duly authorized on behalf of Enel Américas S.A., I hereby inform you of the following Significant Event:
Yesterday, our Brazilian subsidiary, Eletropaulo Metropolitana Eletricidade de São Paulo S.A. ("Enel Distribuição São Paulo"), issued to the market the attached statement complementing a Significant Event they issued on March 9, 2018, in the Republic of Brazil, which announced the agreements (the "Agreements") entered into by the aforementioned subsidiary and Eletrobras Centrais Elétricas S.A. ("Eletrobras') and their lawyers. The Agreements aimed to end a legal dispute (case No. 001002119.1989.8.19.0001) (the “legal dispute") that involved Eletrobras, Companhia de Transmissão de Energia Elétrica Paulista ("CTEEP") and Enel Distribuição São Paulo.
As reported in the attached statement, in compliance with the Agreements and notwithstanding any potential appeals against CTEEP, Enel Distribuição Sao Paulo pledged to disburse R$ 1.500 million as payment for the debt associated with the proceedings, of which R$ 1.400 million is to be paid to Eletrobras and R$ 100 million in legal costs pursuant to the following conditions:
a) Payments to Eletrobras: (i) R$ 250 million after judicial approval of the Agreements with Eletrobras and the lawyers, whichever occurs last; (ii) 3 annual instalments of R$ 300 million, the first being 12 months after payment of the first instalment; and (iii) a final payment of R$ 250 million, 48 months after the date of the first payment;
(b) Payments to the lawyers: (i) 50% after judicial approval of the Agreements with Eletrobras and lawyers, whichever occurs last; and (ii) payment of the balance at the end of 60 months as of the date of the first payment; and,
c) Payments shall be adjusted by CDI (inter-financial deposit index) + 1%, from January 31, 2018, on the effective payment date of each instalment.
Given that the Agreements were approved on April 25, 2019, and June 10, 2019, respectively, the agreed conditions to initiate the payments were met; therefore, Enel Distribuição São Paulo paid the first instalment of the Agreements, appropriately readjusted, on June 10, 2019.
The Agreements are duly provisioned in the Consolidated Financial Statement of Enel Américas from the acquisition date of Enel Distribuição São Paulo.
Sincerely,
Domingo Valdés
General Counsel
