Body of the report:
With reference to Current Report Nos. 32/2016 and 53/2022 pertaining to
the termination of purchase agreements for property rights resulting
from certificates of origin for electricity generated from renewable
sources (green certificates) and information provided in this respect in
periodic reports, the Management Board of ENEA S.A. (“Company”,
“Issuer”) hereby reports that on 20 December 2022 the Issuer signed
arrangements with PGE Group companies that are parties to the said
property rights purchase agreements regarding an amicable settlement of
disputes arising from these agreements (“Arrangements”).
Under the terms of the Arrangements, the Issuer undertook to enter into
settlements based on which all pending litigation will be terminated in
exchange for the payment of the total amount of approx. PLN 262.8
million to PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. (“PGE EO”) and PGE Energia Ciepła
S.A. (jointly: “PGE Companies”). The payment will be made in
installments, as agreed by the parties, by the end of April 2023.
The amount of the settlement to be paid to the PGE Companies under the
Arrangements is included, in particular, in the value of provisions for
other reported claims, which the Issuer disclosed in its interim report
for Q3 2022.
The payment of the said amount will exhaust all claims of the PGE
Companies against ENEA S.A. arising from the property rights purchase
agreements.
With a view to terminating all litigation arising from the said property
rights purchase agreements, the parties undertook to enter into
settlements based on the terms set forth in the Arrangements. In another
current report, the Issuer intends only to disclose information about
the occurrence, if any, of circumstances preventing the execution of
such settlements with the PGE Companies.
At the same time, please be advised that, in compliance with the
arrangement executed with PGE EO, one of its key provisions is the
obligation for the parties to execute a property rights purchase
transaction whereby the Issuer will buy certificates of origin of
electricity for the total price of approx. PLN 24.6 million. The
transaction is subject to execution in the Register of Certificates of
Origin kept by the Polish Power Exchange (Towarowa Giełda Energii S.A.)
through the completion of an unsettled OTC deal. The Issuer’s payment of
the price for the purchase of property rights to PGE EO within the time
limit agreed upon by the parties, in accordance with the provisions of
the arrangement, is a precondition for the execution of the
litigation-ending settlements.
