INFORMATION FOR EXTRAORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING
TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 18, 2020
(this “Information Statement”)
This Information Statement and the accompanying Notice and Voting Instructions are furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of Enel Américas S.A. (the “Company” or “Enel Américas”) of instructions for the voting of shares of common stock underlying American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) of the Company at the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting (the “Meeting”) to be held on December 18, 2020, at 10:00 A.M., local time, at the Company’s headquarters, located at Santa Rosa 76, Santiago, Chile, and virtually through electronic systems made available to shareholders, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof.
This Information Statement and the accompanying Notice and Voting Instructions are first being mailed or delivered to holders of ADSs (“ADS Holders”) on or about November 18, 2020.
No Offer or Solicitation
THIS STATEMENT AND SOLICITATION OF VOTING INSTRUCTIONS SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER TO SELL OR THE SOLICITATION OF AN OFFER TO BUY SECURITIES, NOR SHALL THERE BE ANY SALE OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN, IN ANY JURISDICTION, INCLUDING THE UNITED STATES, IN WHICH SUCH OFFER, SOLICITATION OR SALE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL PRIOR TO REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION. No offering of securities shall be made except PURSUANT TO THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, OR an applicable exemption therefrom.
SOLICITATION OF VOTING INSTRUCTIONS
Voting Instructions that are properly completed, signed and received by Citibank, N.A., as depositary (the “Depositary”), prior to 10:00 A.M. E.S.T. on December 16, 2020 (the “Voting Instructions Deadline”), will be voted in accordance with the instructions of the persons executing the same. The Board encourages you to instruct the Depositary as more fully described in the Voting Instructions. Your voting instructions may be revoked at any time before they are exercised by submitting to the Depositary written notice of revocation, submitting properly executed Voting Instructions dated as of a later date, or by withdrawing the shares underlying the ADSs and attending the Meeting and voting in person or virtually through electronic systems made available to shareholders.
If the Voting Instructions are properly executed and returned, but no specific directions are made, the Depositary will vote the shares or other securities represented by the ADSs in favor of all of the items proposed by the Board of Directors for approval by shareholders.
If no voting instructions are received by the Depositary from an ADS Holder on or before the Voting Instructions Deadline, such ADS Holder shall be deemed, and the Depositary shall deem such ADS Holder, to have instructed the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy with full power of substitution, to the Chairman of the Board of the Company or to a person designated by him, to vote the shares underlying the ADSs on any matters at the Meeting, and the Depositary will give such a discretionary proxy, except that no such instruction shall be deemed and no such discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any matter as to which (i) the Chairman of the Board directs the Depositary that he does not wish such proxy to be given, (ii) substantial opposition exists by the ADS Holders or (iii) such matter materially and adversely affects the rights of ADS Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, because Enel S.p.A. holds 65% of the Company’s outstanding shares, under the Company’s bylaws, the Company would not be able to exercise the discretionary proxy, if given, due to the restrictions set forth in the bylaws of the company pursuant to Title XII of Decree Law No. 3,500 of 1980 (“DL 3,500”) (the Chilean law that regulates pension fund investments). Accordingly, the Chairman of the Board will direct the Depositary that he does not wish such discretionary proxy to be given.
Note that under Chilean law, shareholders at the Meeting may adopt or reject certain of the matters described in this Information Statement or on the ADS voting instruction card or, if proposed by the chair presiding at the Meeting, agree to something different as long as the matter is included in the agenda for the Meeting. Any ADS Holder who wishes to exercise share voting rights (as opposed to ADS voting rights) at the Meeting must cancel such holder’s Enel Américas ADSs, pay the corresponding cancellation fees pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, and take receipt of the underlying shares of common stock in order to become a registered shareholder of Enel Américas not later than midnight (the end of the day) on December 12, 2020 (the fifth Chilean business day prior to the Meeting) and either attend the Meeting in person or virtually through electronic systems made available to shareholders or grant a Chilean power of attorney to an attorney-in-fact who must attend the Meeting in person or virtually through electronic systems made available to shareholders and vote such holder’s shares on such holder’s behalf.
At the instruction of the Company, the Depositary has fixed the close of business on November 13, 2020, as the record date for determination of ADS Holders entitled to notice of and to instruct the Depositary how to vote at the Meeting (the “ADS Record Date”). Accordingly, only ADS Holders of record, at the close of business on the ADS Record Date, of our ADSs representing shares of common stock will be entitled to notice of, and to instruct the Depositary how to vote at, the Meeting.
As of the ADS Record Date for the Meeting, 76,086,311,036 shares of common stock of Enel Américas were outstanding and entitled to vote at the Meeting. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. As of November 11, 2020, the most recent date for which information is reasonably available, there were 2,485,532,028 shares of common stock represented by ADSs. Each ADS represents 50 shares of common stock of the Company.
As of November 11, 2020: (i) Enel S.p.A., a company organized under the laws of Italy, beneficially owned 65.0% of the common stock of the Company (including in the form of ADSs); (ii) Chilean private pension funds (Administradoras de Fondos de Pensiones or “AFPs”), in the aggregate, owned 13.8% of the Company’s common stock; (iii) Chilean stockbrokers, mutual funds, insurance companies, foreign equity funds, and other Chilean institutional investors collectively owned 16.7% of the Company’s common stock; (iv) ADS Holders (other than Enel S.p.A.) through the Depositary’s nominee beneficially owned 3.3% of the Company’s common stock (in the form of ADSs); and (v) the remaining 1.2% of the Company’s common stock was owned by 23,073 minority shareholders.

Items 1, 2 and part (ii) of Item 3 of the matters presented by the Board of Directors for the consideration and vote of shareholders at the Meeting (which items include proposals to approve the Chilean Merger under Chilean corporate law, to approve the Chilean Merger as a related party transaction under Chilean law and to approve the proposed amendments of the bylaws of Enel Américas, other than as set out in part (i) of Item 3) require the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Approval of part (i) of Item 3 (relating to the removal of limitations and restrictions set forth under Title XII of DL 3,500, including, among other things, the 65% share ownership limitation by any single shareholder) requires the affirmative vote of at least 75% of the outstanding stock of the Company. Approval of Item 4 presented by the Board of Directors for the consideration and vote of shareholders at the Meeting requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting shares of the Company present or represented by proxy at the meeting. Item 5 will be presented by the Board of Directors of the Company to the shareholders of the Company for informational purposes only. See “The Meeting—Votes Required.”

Enel Américas is proposing to conduct a transaction, which involves the following (collectively, the “Transaction”):
· | The merger of EGP Américas with and into Enel Américas (the “Chilean Merger”), subject to the condition that the effectiveness of the following has occurred: |
o | the separation of the non-conventional renewable energy generation businesses of EGP in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, and Peru through the transfer of the assets used in such businesses under Italian law to a newly created entity, Enel Rinnovabili, and the subsequent distribution of the shares of Enel Rinnovabili to Enel S.p.A., EGP’s sole shareholder (the “Spin-Off”); and |
o | the merger of Enel Rinnovabili with and into EGP Américas (the “Cross-Border Merger”). |
· | The Spin-Off and the Cross-Border Merger are preparatory transactions that are conditions precedent to the Chilean Merger and are part of an internal reorganization by Enel and EGP, to which Enel Américas is not a party. |
The Transaction seeks to consolidate Enel’s conventional and non-conventional renewable energy businesses in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, and Peru under one company, as shown below.
Under Chilean law, the Chilean Merger has been deemed a related party transaction, subject to the statutory requirements and protections of the Chilean Corporations Act.

The Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of Enel Américas (the “Meeting”) will be held on December 18, 2020, at 10:00 A.M., local time, at the Company’s headquarters, located at Santa Rosa 76, Santiago, Chile, and virtually through electronic systems made available to shareholders.
At the Meeting, the Board of Directors of the Company will present the following matters to the shareholders of the Company for their consideration and vote. Currently, there is no proposed wording of the resolutions to be brought before the shareholders. It is also not a requirement of Chilean law that a specific proposal or resolution be presented to shareholders before an ESM, notwithstanding that all matters to be presented to the shareholders must be described in the notice of the meeting.
1. | Item 1 – Approve the Chilean Merger, in accordance with rules under Title IX of Law No. 18,046 (the “Chilean Corporations Act”) and Title IX of the Chilean Corporation Regulations (Reglamento de Sociedades Anónimas), pursuant to which following (i) the spin-off of EGP Central and South America as Enel Rinnovabili (the “Spin-Off”) and (ii) the merger of Enel Rinnovabili with and into EGP Américas (the “Cross-Border Merger”), EGP Américas will be merged into Enel Américas and Enel Américas will succeed to all rights and obligations of EGP Américas, including EGP Central and South America. The approval of the Chilean Merger will also constitute the approval of: |
(a) | the terms and conditions of the Chilean Merger provided in the Chilean Merger Agreement prepared pursuant to Chilean law, including the merger exchange ratio of 0.43 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share, or such other merger exchange ratio as may be definitively determined by the shareholders at the Meeting, within the range of 0.41 to 0.45 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share; |
(b) | the financial statements of Enel Américas and EGP Américas as of September 30, 2020, duly audited under the Chilean auditing standards by the corresponding external audit firms; and |
(c) | a capital increase by Enel Américas of 32,717,113,745 shares, or such other number of shares determined based on the merger exchange ratio approved by the shareholders at the Meeting, for purposes of authorizing the shares to be issued to the sole shareholder of EGP Américas in the Chilean Merger. |
2. | Item 2 – Approve the Chilean Merger as a related party transaction under Title XVI of the Chilean Corporations Act. The Chilean Merger will be subject to, among other conditions, the conditions precedent that (i) the Spin-Off has been declared effective; (ii) the Cross-Border Merger has been approved; and (iii) the Cross-Border Merger has been declared effective. The Spin-Off and the Cross-Border Merger are preparatory transactions that are conditions precedent to the Chilean Merger and are part of an internal reorganization of Enel and EGP, to which Enel Américas is not a party, and Enel Américas shareholders are not being asked to approve them. |
3. | Item 3 – Approve the proposed amendments to the Enel Américas bylaws (i) to remove the majority of the limitations and restrictions set forth under Title XII of DL 3,500, including, among other things, the 65% share ownership limitation by any single shareholder and (ii) to reflect agreements related to the Chilean Merger. If approved by the requisite shareholder votes, the effectiveness of parts (i) and (ii) will be conditioned on approvals of Items 1 and 2. |
13
4. | Item 4 – Authorize the Board of Directors of the Company to undertake all actions necessary to carry out the Chilean Merger, the Chilean Merger as a related party transaction and the indicated bylaw amendments, including the registration of the new Enel Américas common shares with the CMF and any other action related to the Chilean Merger, whether in Chile or elsewhere. |
Item 5, which involves informing the shareholders of any related party transactions governed by Title XVI of the Chilean Corporations Act, other than the Chilean Merger, approved by the Board since the last ordinary shareholders’ meeting, will be presented by the Board of Directors of the Company to the shareholders of the Company for informational purposes only.
Under Chilean law, a quorum for a shareholders’ meeting is established by the presence, in person or by proxy, of shareholders representing at least a majority of the issued shares with voting rights of a company. Enel, which beneficially owns 65% of the Company’s common stock, can establish a quorum at the Meeting without the attendance of any other shareholder. Additionally, upon the written request of the Company, the Depositary will represent all shares of the Company’s common stock underlying ADSs at any shareholders’ meeting for the sole purpose of establishing a quorum at such meeting.
Approval of Items 1, 2, and part (ii) of Item 3 requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Approval of part (i) of Item 3 requires the affirmative vote of at least 75% of the outstanding stock of the Company. Approval of Item 4 requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting shares of the Company present or represented by proxy at the meeting. Item 5 will be presented by the Board of Directors of the Company to the shareholders of the Company for informational purposes only. Enel currently beneficially holds 65% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, and will be entitled to vote its shares of common stock on all matters at the Meeting, and intends to vote its shares in favor of each of the items referred above that are submitted for approval.
Under the Third Amended and Restated Deposit Agreement, dated as of March 28, 2013, among the Company, the Depositary and all ADS Holders and Beneficial Owners thereunder (the “Deposit Agreement”), ADS Holders have the right to instruct the Depositary how to vote their shares at the Meeting. For more information regarding the Deposit Agreement, see “Item 10. Additional Information” in the 2019 Form 20-F, incorporated herein by reference.
If the Voting Instructions are properly executed and returned, but no specific directions are made, the Depositary will vote the shares or other securities represented by the ADSs in favor of the items proposed by the Board of Directors for approval.
14
At the instruction of the Company, the Depositary has set November 13, 2020, as the ADS Record Date. Accordingly, only ADS Holders as of the ADS Record Date are entitled to instruct the Depositary how to vote at the Meeting. Upon the timely receipt of voting instructions from an ADS Holder entitled to instruct the Depositary how to vote at the Meeting as explained in the attached Voting Instructions, the Depositary will, insofar as practicable and permitted under applicable law, the provisions of the Deposit Agreement, the bylaws of the Company and the provisions of the common stock of the Company, vote, or cause Banco Santander-Chile, as Custodian, to vote the shares underlying the ADS Holder’s ADSs in accordance with such voting instructions. Additionally, subject to the conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement, ADS Holders may withdraw the shares underlying the ADSs and attend and vote at the Meeting in person. If you do not attend the Meeting or do not instruct the Depositary to vote on your behalf, the Company has the contractual right under the Deposit Agreement to designate a person to vote your shares in such person’s sole discretion, unless (i) the Chairman of the Board directs the Depositary not to give such a proxy, (ii) substantial opposition exists by the ADS Holders or (iii) the matters to be voted on materially and adversely affect the rights of ADS Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, because Enel S.p.A. holds 65% of the Company’s outstanding shares, under the Company’s bylaws, the Company would not be able to exercise the discretionary proxy, if given, due to the restrictions set forth in the bylaws of the Company pursuant to Title XII of DL 3,500. Accordingly, the Chairman of the Board will direct the Depositary that he does not wish such discretionary proxy to be given.
Note that under Chilean law, shareholders at the Meeting may adopt or reject certain of the matters described in this Information Statement or on the ADS voting instruction card or, if proposed by the chair presiding at the Meeting, agree to something different as long as the matter is included in the agenda for the Meeting. Any ADS Holder who wishes to exercise share voting rights (as opposed to ADS voting rights) at the Meeting must cancel such holder’s Enel Américas ADSs, pay the corresponding cancellation fees pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, and take receipt of the underlying shares of common stock in order to become a registered shareholder of Enel Américas not later than midnight (the end of the day) on December 12, 2020 (the fifth Chilean business day prior to the Meeting), and either attend the Meeting in person or virtually through electronic systems made available to shareholders or grant a Chilean power of attorney to an attorney-in-fact who must attend the Meeting in person or virtually through electronic systems made available to shareholders and vote such holder’s shares on such holder’s behalf.

ITEM 1 – APPROVAL OF THE CHILEAN MERGER
The Company is seeking the approval of the Chilean Merger in accordance with rules under Title IX of the Chilean Corporations Act and Title IX of the Chilean Corporation Regulations. The approval of the Chilean Merger will also constitute (i) the approval of the terms and conditions of the Chilean Merger, including the capital increase and the merger exchange ratio, (ii) the approval of the financial statements of Enel Américas and EGP Américas as of September 30, 2020, duly audited under the Chilean auditing standards by the corresponding external audit firms, provided in connection with the Chilean Merger (the “Chilean Financial Statements”) and (iii) a declaration that the approval of the Chilean Merger and its consummation does not constitute a reorganization of Enel Américas that is subject to commitments previously made by Enel in connection with the 2016 corporate reorganization of Enel Américas. The following is a summary description of the Chilean Merger.
Conditions of the Chilean Merger
The effectiveness of the Chilean Merger is subject to certain conditions described below. The conditions indicated below are not exhaustive, and additional conditions may be established by Enel Américas or EGP Américas or by their respective Boards of Directors for the effectiveness of the Chilean Merger. In any event, the conditions indicated below for the Chilean Merger must be satisfied on or before December 31, 2021. Therefore, the last date on which the Chilean Merger may become effective is December 31, 2021.
The consummation of the Chilean Merger will be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:
· | EGP declares effective the Spin-Off; |
· | Enel Rinnovabili and EGP Américas approve and declare effective the Cross-Border merger; |
· | Enel Américas and EGP Américas approve the Chilean Merger; |
· | Enel Américas approves the Chilean Merger as a related party transaction and the proposed amendments to the bylaws of Enel Américas to remove the majority of the limitations and restrictions set forth under Title XII of DL 3,500, including, among other things, the 65% ownership limitation by any single shareholder; |
· | Not more than 10% of the outstanding Enel Américas shares exercise statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights in connection with the Chilean Merger; |
· | Specified consents and all other authorizations and consents required by law or by contract for the effectiveness of the Transaction, whether in Italy, Chile, or any other jurisdiction in which such authorization or consent is required to be obtained have been received; and |
· | The absence of any legal proceeding or action seeking to: (i) prohibit or prevent the Chilean Merger between Enel Américas and EGP Américas; (ii) impose material limitations on Enel Américas’ ability to effectively exercise its property rights over the assets of EGP Américas to be assigned to Enel Américas as a consequence of the Chilean Merger; (iii) impose limitations on Enel Américas’ ability to continue developing and operating the projects owned by EGP Américas; and (iv) in general, any legal proceeding or action before any regulatory, judicial or administrative authority resulting in any of the consequences indicated in (i) to (iii) above. |
Enel Américas and EGP Américas may establish additional conditions precedent for the effectiveness of the Chilean Merger, provided that such additional conditions precedent are not contrary to the terms and conditions set forth in the Chilean Merger Agreement described under “—The Chilean Merger Agreement.”
16
The Chilean Merger Agreement includes certain covenants governing the conduct of Enel Américas and EGP Américas between the date of the Chilean Merger Agreement and the effective date of the Chilean Merger, including with respect to: (i) restrictions on (a) amendments to their respective bylaws (other than in connection with the Chilean Merger), (b) creating new series of shares or canceling or reclassifying shares, (c) acquiring, directly or indirectly, any of its own shares (except in connection with the exercise of statutory merger withdrawal rights by shareholders) or (d) in the case of EGP, selling, transferring, lending or otherwise disposing of its interests and shares in EGP Central and South America, except in the ordinary course of business; (ii) continuing to conduct their respective business in the ordinary course, consistent with past practice, and (iii) accounting for their transactions in a manner consistent with the accounting principles used in the preparation of their respective financial statements.
The Chilean Merger Agreement includes a covenant that if prior to the effective date of the Chilean Merger, Enel Américas (on the one hand) or Enel Rinnovabili or EGP Américas (on the other hand) make any distribution or payments of profits and dividends or capital reductions, then the other party will have the right to make a distribution or payment of profits and dividends for an amount such that the proportionality that each of the parties represents in the value of Enel Américas following the Chilean Merger is preserved, in accordance with the valuations and agreements adopted by the shareholders at the Meeting.
Under the Chilean Corporations Act, the Boards of Directors of the companies that are parties to a merger are not required to approve the merger. Instead, the Chilean Corporations Act requires that the Board of each company that is a party to the merger must:
· | approve the merger agreement regulating the merger to be proposed to its shareholders, which includes the proposed merger exchange ratio; |
· | approve proposing the merger to its shareholders; |
· | designate an independent expert appraiser to provide a report in accordance with Articles 156 and 168 of the Chilean Corporate Regulations (Reglamento de Sociedades Anónimas) on the values of Enel Américas and EGP Américas and the merger exchange ratio in connection with the Chilean Merger; and |
· | call and set a date for an ESM to vote on the proposed merger exchange ratio and the merger. |
If two-thirds of the outstanding voting shares of each of Enel Américas and EGP Américas approve the Chilean Merger and all other conditions of the Chilean Merger are satisfied or waived, then the Chilean Corporations Act provides that at the effective time of the Chilean Merger:
· | EGP Américas, as the non-surviving company, will be dissolved by operation of law, but not subject to liquidation. |
· | Enel Américas will, by operation of law, acquire all of the assets and rights and succeed to all of the liabilities and obligations of EGP Américas at its book value as of the Chilean Merger effective date. The Chilean Financial Statements of both Enel Américas and EGP Américas must be approved by the shareholders of each company in the same meeting at which, or by a unanimous written consent in which, the Chilean Merger is submitted for their approval. |
17
· | Shareholders of EGP Américas will automatically become shareholders of Enel Américas and the shares of EGP Américas will automatically convert into Enel Américas shares at the merger exchange ratio approved by the shareholders of Enel Américas and EGP Américas at their respective shareholders’ meetings. However, the exchange of the registered shares of Enel Américas for the shares of Enel Américas originally issued in the Chilean Merger and commencement of the public trading of the new shares will only be made once the new shares of Enel Américas have been registered at the Securities Registry of the CMF on a date to be agreed upon by the Board of Directors of Enel Américas, and of which the shareholders of Enel Américas and EGP Américas will be duly notified. |
The approval of the Chilean Merger by shareholders at the Meeting will also constitute approval of the merger exchange ratio of 0.43 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share in the Chilean Merger proposed by the Board of Directors of Enel Américas, or such other merger exchange ratio definitively determined by shareholders at the Meeting within the range of 0.41 to 0.45 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share.
Note that under Chilean law, shareholders at the Meeting may adopt or reject certain of the matters described in this Information Statement or on the ADS voting instruction card or, if proposed by the chair presiding at the Meeting, agree to something different as long as the matter is included in the agenda for the Meeting. If the proposal to be voted on as described in this Item 1 and on the ADS voting instruction card is modified at or prior to the Meeting to authorize a merger exchange ratio outside the range described above, the Depositary will not vote your shares underlying your ADSs on that matter and will treat your vote as an uninstructed vote.
YOU SHOULD MONITOR THE COMPANY’S WEBSITE AND ITS FILINGS WITH THE SEC ON FORM 6-K FOR ANY UPDATES REGARDING THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE CHILEAN MERGER, INCLUDING THE MERGER EXCHANGE RATIO.
The approval of the Chilean Merger by shareholders at the Meeting will also constitute approval of a capital increase by Enel Américas of 32,717,113,745 shares, or such other number of shares as may be determined based on the merger exchange ratio approved by the shareholders at the Meeting for purposes of issuing the shares to the sole shareholder of EGP Américas in the Chilean Merger.
The number of shares approved for the capital increase will be determined based on multiplying (i) the merger exchange ratio by (ii) the total number of shares of EGP Américas outstanding immediately before the effective date of the Chilean Merger, without any fractional shares being issued. For this purpose, the capital of EGP Américas immediately before the effective date of the Chilean Merger will be 76,086,311,036 shares (equal to the number of shares of Enel Américas outstanding immediately before the Meeting approving the Chilean Merger).
As an example, if the Chilean Merger is approved by shareholders at the Meeting authorizing the merger exchange ratio proposed by the Board of Directors of 0.43 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share, it would represent a capital increase of 32,717,113,745 new Enel Américas shares to be issued in the Chilean Merger. If, however, the Chilean Merger is approved by shareholders at the Meeting authorizing a merger exchange ratio of 0.45 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share (the maximum ratio within the range), it would represent a capital increase of 34,238,839,966 new Enel Américas shares to be issued in the Chilean Merger.
18
Enel Américas’ shareholders will not have preemptive subscription rights on such shares, and they will be delivered to the sole shareholder of EGP Américas in accordance with the merger exchange ratio agreed upon at the Meeting. These shares will be issued and distributed by the board of directors of Enel Américas directly to the sole shareholder of EGP Américas on the effective date of the Chilean Merger, exchanging its EGP Américas shares for new Enel Américas shares.
EGP Central and South America is engaged in the electricity generation business with operations in Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, and Peru. As of September 30, 2020, EGP owns and operates hydroelectric, solar, and wind generation units in Central and South America with an aggregate installed capacity of approximately 3.3 GW and has projects under construction with an additional expected aggregate installed capacity of approximately 2.2 GW. In 2019, consolidated electricity production was 9,036 GWh. Of the total consolidated generation in 2019, 33% was from hydropower or mini-hydropower sources, 17% was from solar sources, and 49% was from wind sources. Upon effectiveness of the Cross-Border Merger, Enel Rinnovabili will merge with and into EGP Américas. EGP Américas will be the surviving corporation under the name “EGP Américas SpA.” It will hold EGP Central and South America, and Enel Rinnovabili will cease to exist as a separate entity.
For additional information regarding EGP Central and South America, see Appendix A to this Information Statement.
If the Chilean Merger is approved by two-thirds of the respective outstanding voting shares of Enel Américas and EGP Américas, in order for the Chilean Merger to be completed and the exchange of Enel Américas shares for EGP Américas shares to occur (i) Enel Américas must record the minutes of the ESM at which its shareholders approved the Chilean Merger before a Chilean notary public and publish within the 60 following days an abstract of those minutes in the Registry of Commerce (Registro de Comercio) and the Official Gazette (Diario Oficial) and (ii) EGP Américas must record the minutes of the ESM at which its shareholders approved the Chilean Merger before a Chilean notary public and publish within the following month an abstract of those minutes in the Registry of Commerce and in the Official Gazette.
In addition, although not a precondition to the effectiveness of the Chilean Merger, before the Enel Américas shares can be traded on the Chilean Stock Exchanges, Enel Américas must obtain:
· | approval for registration of the additional Enel Américas shares by the CMF; and |
· | approval of the Chilean Stock Exchanges to list the additional Enel Américas shares. |
There are no other regulatory approvals Enel Américas is seeking to obtain in connection with the Chilean Merger of Enel Américas and EGP Américas. However, in connection with the approval by the CMF of the registration of the issuance of the additional Enel Américas shares, the CMF will review the issuance to determine whether it complies with Chilean law.
In addition, in connection with the Chilean Merger and the Enel Américas ADS program, certain information must be delivered to the CMF. Enel Américas must deliver to the CMF a copy of any information relating to the Chilean Merger that it submits to the SEC in the same form and at the same time it files such information with the SEC.
19
Statutory Merger Dissenters’ Withdrawal Rights
Under the Chilean Corporations Act, Enel Américas shareholders and EGP Américas shareholders who vote against approval of the Chilean Merger, or if they did not attend the meeting, who notify the applicable company in writing within 30 days following the respective shareholders’ meetings of their opposition to the Chilean Merger, and who provide Enel Américas or EGP Américas, as the case may be, with the required notice of withdrawal, will have the right to exercise statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights and to receive from Enel Américas or EGP Américas, as the case may be, a cash payment in exchange for Enel Américas shares or EGP Américas shares, as applicable. A holder of Enel Américas shares exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights will receive a cash payment from Enel Américas that is equivalent to the weighted average of the closing prices for Enel Américas shares as reported on the Chilean Stock Exchanges during the 60-trading day period preceding the 30th trading day prior to the date on which the Chilean Merger is approved, which has been calculated as Ch$109.79 per Enel Américas share. A holder of EGP Américas shares exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights will receive a cash payment from EGP Américas that is equivalent to the book value of EGP Américas shares, which is determined by dividing EGP Américas’ net worth by the total number of issued and paid shares of EGP Américas.
Enel Américas ADS Holders own beneficial interests in Enel Américas shares held by the custodian bank for Enel Américas’ ADS program. Enel Américas ADS Holders do not hold Enel Américas shares directly and are not listed as shareholders on Enel Américas’ share registry. Therefore, any Enel Américas ADS Holder that wishes to exercise statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights with respect to the Chilean Merger must cancel such holder’s Enel Américas ADSs, pay the corresponding cancellation fees pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, and take receipt of the underlying shares of common stock in order to become a registered shareholder of Enel Américas not later than midnight (the end of the day) on December 12, 2020 (the fifth Chilean business day prior to the Meeting) (the “Shareholder Record Date”) and then follow the procedures for exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights as a shareholder.
Please note that under Chilean law, shareholders must receive notice of the shareholders’ meeting not less than 15 and no more than 20 days before the date of a shareholders’ meeting unless all shareholders are present in a meeting, in which case no notice is required. Only Enel Américas holders of record as of the Shareholder Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Meeting. Enel Américas ADS Holders that do not cancel their ADSs and do not become record shareholders of Enel Américas on or before the Shareholder Record Date will not have the right to dissent from the Chilean Merger under Chilean law for purposes of exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights. Since EGP Américas is a company limited by shares, only EGP Américas holders of record on December 18, 2020 (the date of the ESM of EGP Américas) will be entitled to vote at the ESM of EGP Américas. Under Chilean law, Enel Américas and EGP Américas will not be required to purchase shares from shareholders exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights if within 60 days following the respective ESMs, a new shareholders’ meeting approves the revocation of the Chilean Merger. Therefore, if the Chilean Merger is revoked within the term indicated above, Enel Américas may not purchase Enel Américas shares from the Enel Américas shareholders exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights. In addition, if the conditions precedent to the Chilean Merger are not satisfied and the Chilean Merger does not become effective, Enel Américas will not purchase Enel Américas shares of Enel Américas shareholders exercising their statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights. Enel Américas ADS Holders who cancel their Enel Américas ADSs to become shareholders of record of Enel Américas will continue to be Enel Américas shareholders and may incur additional fees to redeposit their Enel Américas shares into the Enel Américas ADS program.

ITEM 2 – APPROVAL OF THE CHILEAN MERGER AS A RELATED PARTY
TRANSACTION
The Company is seeking the approval of the Chilean Merger as a related party transaction in accordance with Title XVI of the Chilean Corporations Act.
The Chilean Merger involves the merger of EGP Américas with and into Enel Américas. The consummation of the Chilean Merger is contingent on the approval of the Chilean Merger by the shareholders of Enel Américas and EGP Américas and the satisfaction of conditions of the Chilean Merger described in “Item 1—Approval of the Chilean Merger—Conditions of the Chilean Merger.” Upon the effectiveness of the Chilean Merger, EGP Américas will merge with and into Enel Américas. Enel Américas will be the surviving corporation under the name “Enel Américas S.A.” It will hold EGP Central and South America, and EGP Américas will cease to exist as a separate entity. See “Item 1 – Approval of the Chilean Merger—Conditions of the Chilean Merger.”
The following are the strategic benefits of the proposed Transaction to Enel Américas:
· | Integration with one of the largest non-conventional renewable platforms in Latin America, with 3.3 GW of capacity in operation, 2.2 GW under construction, 2.4 GW in the advanced development stage, and 22.1 GW in the pipeline as of September 2020 (See Appendix A). |
· | Enhancement of Enel Américas’ energy transition, with an increase in the weighting of renewable energy resources, from 56% to 73% of its total generation capacity. |
· | Unique growth opportunity that leverages EGP’s unparalleled scale and solid track record with renewable energy resources. |
· | Strengthen Enel Américas balance sheet with room for additional leverage that will allow Enel Américas to fund its growth opportunities. |
· | Greater operational and geographic diversification, including expansion into Central America. |
· | Opportunities to boost growth in the unregulated market in Latin America benefiting from the combination of conventional and renewable energy generation sources at competitive prices. |
Following the Chilean Merger, Enel Américas will maintain the highest corporate governance standards among listed companies in Chile.
· | As part of the Enel Group, Enel Américas is committed to the highest corporate governance standards. |
· | Related-Party Transactions are treated in accordance with the Chilean Corporations Act. |
· | Enel Américas’ Independent Directors’ Committee will continue with three independent members after the Chilean Merger is completed. |
21
· | Transparent information systems for planning, supervision, and coordination purposes. |
· | Enel Américas has promoted risk policies that identify, quantify, and mitigate potential conflicts of interest. |
· | Enel Américas will continue to have its investment and financing policies approved by shareholders at its ordinary shareholders’ meetings. |
In deciding whether to vote to approve the Chilean Merger as a related party transaction in accordance with Title XVI of the Chilean Corporations Act, you should carefully read this Information Statement and the referred documents. You should also carefully consider the following risk factors related to the Transaction together with the risk factors set forth in the 2019 Enel Américas Form 20-F.
Enel Américas may fail to realize the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings, and other anticipated benefits, incur unanticipated costs associated with the Transaction, and Enel Américas’ results of operations, financial condition and the price of Enel Américas shares may suffer.
The Transaction may not achieve the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings, and other benefits anticipated by Enel Américas, and other assumptions upon which the offer consideration was determined may prove to be incorrect.
Under any of these circumstances, the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings, and other benefits anticipated by us to result from the completion of the Transaction may not be achieved as expected, or at all, or may be delayed. To the extent that Enel Américas incurs higher integration costs or achieve lower revenue benefits or fewer cost savings than expected, Enel Américas’ results of operations and financial condition may suffer.
The potential integration of Enel Américas and EGP Américas may be difficult and expensive.
The Chilean Merger involves integrating a mature business, as is the case of Enel Américas’ conventional energy business with EGP Américas’ non-conventional renewable energy business. Enel Américas’ goal in integrating the operations is to increase the revenues and earnings of the combined businesses, and, as a combined company, to increase Enel Américas’ ability to satisfy the demands of its customers. In so doing, Enel Américas may encounter substantial difficulties in integrating operations and could even incur substantial costs as a result of, among other things:
· | inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies, business cultures and compensation structures between Enel Américas and EGP Américas and the need to implement, integrate and harmonize various business-specific operating procedures and systems, as well as the financial, accounting, information and other systems of Enel Américas and EGP Américas; |
· | diversion of management’s attention from their other responsibilities as a result of the need to deal with integration issues; |
· | failure to retain customers and suppliers of Enel Américas and EGP Américas; and |
· | difficulties in achieving full utilization of assets and resources of Enel Américas and EGP Américas. |
22
The diversion of management attention and any difficulties encountered as a result of the Chilean Merger could increase costs or reduce revenues, earnings, and operating results of Enel Américas following completion of the Chilean Merger. Any delays encountered in the integration process of EGP Américas and Enel Américas could have an adverse effect on the revenues, level of expenses, operating results, and financial condition of Enel Américas, which may adversely affect the value of Enel Américas’ securities.
Following the Chilean Merger, Enel Américas, may not retain critical employees or efficiently manage the more extensive and broader organization, which could negatively affect Enel Américas’ operations and financial condition.
The success of Enel Américas following the Chilean Merger will depend in part on the ability of Enel Américas to retain critical employees of both Enel Américas and EGP Américas and successfully manage the more extensive and broader organization resulting from the Chilean Merger. In this context, critical employees may depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a general desire not to remain with Enel Américas. Furthermore, Enel Américas will face challenges inherent in efficiently managing an increased number of employees. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that Enel Américas will retain critical employees or successfully manage the more extensive and more diverse combined organization, which could result in disruption to the combined company’s business and negatively impact the combined company’s operations and financial condition.
Our controlling shareholder may exert influence over us and may have a different strategic view for our development from that of our minority shareholders.
Enel, our controlling shareholder, owns a beneficial interest of 65% of our share capital as of the date of this Information Statement. Following consummation of the Chilean Merger, Enel’s ownership interest in our share capital will increase and will exceed two-thirds of our voting shares. Under Chilean corporate law, Enel currently has the power to determine the outcome of all material matters that require a simple majority of shareholders’ votes, such as the election of the majority of the seats on our board, and, subject to contractual and legal restrictions, the adoption of our dividend policy. If, following the Chilean Merger, Enel’s ownership interest exceeds two-thirds of our voting shares, it will have the power to approve any matters requiring shareholder approval, including those matters requiring a two-thirds supermajority shareholder vote for approval. Following consummation of the Chilean Merger, the minority shareholders of Enel Américas will have a limited (if any) ability to influence the outcome of any matters that are or can be subject to shareholder approval, including the appointment of directors, acquisitions or dispositions of substantial assets, the issuance of capital stock and other securities and the payment of dividends on Enel Américas shares and ADSs. Enel also exercises significant influence over our business strategy and operations. However, in some cases, its interests may differ from those of our minority shareholders. Certain conflicts of interest affecting Enel in these matters may be resolved differently from the interests of Enel Américas or our minority shareholders.
23
ITEM 3 – APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO THE ENEL AMÉRICAS BYLAWS
The Board of Directors of the Company has approved submitting the proposed amendments to the bylaws of Enel Américas for the approval of the shareholders of the Company:
(i) remove the majority of the limitations and restrictions set forth under Title XII of DL 3,500 (including, among other things, eliminating the concentration limits and other ownership restrictions under Title XII of DL 3,500 which restrict any person from directly or indirectly owning more than 65% of the voting shares of Enel Américas) by eliminating Articles 1 bis, 5 bis, 9 bis, 14 bis, 24 bis and 27 bis of the Enel Américas bylaws and amending Articles 20, 20 bis, 36, 37 and 43 of the Enel Américas bylaws (the “DL 3,500 Amendments”), effective immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Chilean Merger; however, the provisions providing for shareholder approval of the investment and financing policies at the ordinary shareholders’ meetings (as currently required by DL 3,500) will be retained; and
(ii) incorporate the agreements regarding the Chilean Merger and any agreements adopted at the Meeting by amending the Fifth and First Transitory Articles of the Enel Américas bylaws (the “Merger-Related Amendments”), effective immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Chilean Merger.
If approved by the requisite shareholder votes, the effectiveness of the DL 3,500 Amendments and the Merger-Related Amendments will be conditioned on the approval of the Chilean Merger (Item 1) and the Chilean Merger as a related party transaction (Item 2) and will occur immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Chilean Merger.
The Board of Directors will also prepare an amended and restated version of the Company’s bylaws reflecting the amendments approved by shareholders at the Meeting. The Board of Directors is presenting such amendments and the amended and restated version of the Company’s bylaws for the consideration and vote of shareholders.
In addition, if the DL 3,500 Amendments to the Enel Américas bylaws described above are approved and become effective, Enel Américas will not be subject to Title XII of DL 3,500, and AFPs may no longer be able to invest in Enel Américas at the same levels permitted under Title XII of DL 3,500 following the Chilean Merger. As a result, AFPs may be required to divest some of their Enel Américas shares if they are above the permitted level. The liquidity of Enel Américas shares and ADSs may be further reduced, and the value of Enel Américas shares and ADSs could further decrease.
Copies of the original Spanish version and an English translation of the full text of the proposed amendments to Enel Américas’ bylaws are available on Enel Américas’ website at www.enelamericas.com and are incorporated herein by reference. The English translation is not to be construed as being identical in content to the Spanish document (which will prevail in any conflict with the English translation).
24
ITEM 4 – GENERAL AUTHORIZATION WITH RESPECT TO THE CHILEAN MERGER

Opinion of Independent Evaluator of Enel Américas (Santander)
Santander concluded that the Chilean Merger would contribute to the interest of Enel Américas shareholders from a valuation point of view if the Chilean Merger were conducted in accordance with the terms below:
Enel Américas Equity Value: | between US$12,860 million and US$15,837 million (mid-point: US$14,225 million) |
EGP Américas Equity Value: | between US$6,009 million and US$6,819 million (mid-point: US$6,397 million) |
Enel Américas weight in merged company: | 68.2%-69.9% (mid-point: 69.0%) |
Enel Américas shares to be issued (thousands): | between 32,762,261 and 35,553,366 shares (mid-point: 34,214,868 shares) |
Merger exchange ratio: | between 0.43 and 0.47 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share (mid-point: 0.45)
|
To determine its valuation of Enel Américas, Santander primarily used a discounted cash flow methodology and then performed a back-up analysis using other methodologies such as trading multiples, historical transaction multiples, sum-of-the-parts multiples, target prices, and market capitalization price references to confirm the result. To determine its valuation of EGP Américas, Santander primarily used a discounted cash flow methodology for each country in which EGP Américas holds assets and then performed a back-up analysis using other methodologies such as trading multiples and sum-of-the-parts multiples to confirm the result.
27
Opinion of Additional Independent Evaluator of Enel Américas (Banchile)
Banchile concluded that the Chilean Merger would contribute to the interest of Enel Américas shareholders if the Chilean Merger were conducted in accordance with the terms below:
Enel Américas Equity Value(1): | between ~US$14.1 billion and US$14.9 billion |
EGP Américas Equity Value(2): | between ~US$5.7 billion and US$6.2 billion |
Merger exchange ratio(3): | between 0.38 and 0.44 Enel Américas shares for each EGP Américas share
|
(1) | Implied fair value/EBITDA 2020E range of ~7.4-7.8x and implied fair value/EBITDA 2021E range of ~6.6-7.0x. |
(2) | Implied fair value/EBITDA 2020E range of ~14.6-15.9x and implied fair value/EBITDA 2021E range of ~11.1-12.1x. |
(3) | Assuming that EGP Américas will have the same number of shares outstanding as Enel Américas (76,086,311,036). |
Banchile used the following valuation methodologies to determine its valuations: discounted cash flow, market values, broker’s outlook, trading comparables, and precedent transactions.
Report of Independent Appraiser of Enel Américas (Mr. Pablo D’Agliano)
Mr. D’Agliano (i) estimated the economic valuations of the equity of Enel Américas and EGP Américas as of September 30, 2020, and (ii) based on the estimated valuations calculated the proposed merger exchange ratio as set forth below:
Enel Américas | EGP Américas | |
Value of Equity as of September 30, 2020 (US$ millions): | 15,715 | 6,690 |
Price per share: |
US$0.207 | |
Total No. of Shares: |
32,392,545,045 | |
Exchange Ratio: |
0.43 |
28
He further determined a merger exchange ratio range based on a sensitivity analysis, as provided in the table below.
(1) | Equivalent to a price per share of $162.78 Chilean Pesos, based on a CLP/USD FX of 788.15, as informed by the Chilean Central Bank on October 1, 2020, which corresponds to the observed FX for the last business day of September 2020. |
Mr. D’Agliano principally used a discounted cash flow methodology to determine his valuation. He relied on analysis of comparable listed companies’ multiples and transaction multiples, determining that the best way to value the entities was through a sum-of-the-parts methodology.
29
Report of Independent Appraiser of Enel Américas (Mr. David Jana B.)
Mr. Jana’s estimate of (i) the economic valuations of the equity of Enel Américas and EGP Américas as of September 30, 2020, (ii) the equity value of the merged company, and (iii) the proposed range of the merger exchange ratio are provided in the table below:
Note: Equity value of EGP Américas and Enel Américas considering an FX Exchange Rate of USD/CLP 784.5 (09/30/20). Low and high valuation range considers the sensitivity of the DCF valuation of the WACC (+/- 0.5%).
Mr. Jana primarily used a discounted cash flow methodology to determine his valuation. He corroborated his results with valuations for multiples of comparable companies listed on the stock exchange and multiples of comparable transactions. He then performed a sum-of-the parts analysis.

A. Business Overview
EGP Central and South America is engaged in the electricity generation business with operations in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, and Peru. As of September 30, 2020, EGP Central and South America owns and operates hydroelectric, solar, and wind generation units in Central and South America with an aggregate installed capacity of approximately 3.3 GW and has projects under construction with an additional expected aggregate installed capacity of 2.2 GW (1.7 GW from wind sources and 0.5 from solar sources).
In 2019, consolidated electricity production of EGP Central and South America was 9.0 TWh. It is common in the electricity industry to divide the business into hydropower/mini-hydropower, wind, solar, and other generation because each type of power source has significantly different variable costs. Of the total consolidated generation in 2019, 33% was from hydropower or mini-hydropower sources, 17% was from solar sources, and 49% was from wind sources.
The following tables summarize the operational data relating to the installed capacity and average annual electricity generation as of September 30, 2020:

Operations in Argentina
Currently, EGP Central and South America does not have any operational electricity generation facilities in Argentina. Although EGP Central and South America will include the Enel Green Power Argentina S.A. country holding company and the Parque Solar Caucheri IV S.A. subsidiary, it will not include the Parque Eólico La Pampa project, which is not being developed and which will be retained by Enel Green Power.
Capital Investments and Capital Expenditures
Enel and EGP have advised Enel Américas as follows:
EGP Central and South America coordinates its overall financing strategy, including the terms and conditions of loans and intercompany advances entered into by its subsidiaries to optimize debt and liquidity management. Generally, its operating subsidiaries independently plan capital expenditures financed by internally generated funds or direct financings. Although EGP Central and South America has considered how these investments will be financed as part of its budget process, it has not committed to any particular financing structure, and investments will depend on the prevailing market conditions when the cash flows are needed.
EGP Central and South America’s investment plan is flexible enough to adapt to changing circumstances by giving different priorities to each project in accordance with profitability and strategic fit. Investment priorities are currently focused on developing additional renewable energy capacity to guarantee adequate levels of reliable supply while maintaining a high standard of operational efficiency and remaining focused on the environment.

Project Investments
Enel and EGP have advised Enel Américas as follows:
EGP Central and South America continuously analyzes different growth opportunities in the countries in which it operates in Central and South America. EGP Central and South America studies and assesses its project portfolio and seeks new opportunities, either by building new greenfield projects or by modernizing existing brownfield assets and improving (operationally and environmentally) the performance of such assets. Each project’s expected start-up is assessed and defined based on commercial opportunities and financing capacity to fund these projects.
EGP Central and South America will invest approximately US$3,684 million (converted from local currencies to U.S. dollars) from 2020 to 2024 in the development of new generation capacity. The most significant projects under construction in 2020 are detailed below. They are expected to result in 2,169 additional MW of installed capacity, with an additional approximately 2,355 MW of installed capacity in a ready-to-build advanced stage of development targeted for completion by 2024.
