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 as anticipated by the Company in a Significant Event disclosed on June 10, 2022, the Enel Americas’ (the “Company”) Brazilian subsidiary, Enel Brasil S.A., completed yesterday the sale of 100% of the shares issued by CGTF – Central Geradora Thermoelétrica Fortaleza S.A. (“Termofortaleza”), owned by Enel Brasil S.A., to ENEVA S.A. (the “Sale”).

In consideration of the sale of the aforementioned shares, Enel Brasil S.A. received on this date the payment of R$ 489,755,891.94, equivalent to approximately USD 96 million, after complying with all the conditions provided for in the Purchase Agreement. This value represents an Enterprise Value of R$ 431,583,000, equivalent to approximately USD 85 million. This price is subject to positive or negative adjustments, according to the validation of the closing balance to be made by Termofortaleza within the next 90 days. The Sale also foresees contingent payments associated with the future recontracting of the plant, which may reach an additional R$ 97 million equivalent to approximately USD 19 million.

As reported at the time, Termofortaleza’s main operating asset is 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 northeast region of Brazil.

This operation is part of the Company’s decarbonization policy and had been contemplated in the hypotheses of the 2022-2024 Strategic Plan presented to the market last November.

As a result of this transaction, it is estimated that the Company must record a total loss of approximately USD 170 million in its consolidated net result, of which USD 49 million have already been recognized in the Company’s financial statements as of the first half of this year. These amounts do not include additional income that is subject to Termofortaleza’s business performance, indicated above.

Yours truly,

Aurelio Bustilho de Oliveira
