Investments

O.P.C. Energy Ltd. (formerly part of the I.C. Power Ltd group)
 
a.
Acquisition of Tzomet Energy Ltd. (“Tzomet”)
 
In March 2018, OPC completed the acquisition of 95% of the shares of Tzomet, which is developing a natural gas-fired power station in Israel with a capacity of approximately 396 MW. The total consideration for the acquisition is estimated at approximately $23 million, subject to adjustments and milestones. On March 7, 2018, the transaction completion date, OPC paid an amount of $3.65 million. Later in March 2018, an additional $3.65 million was paid while the balance of $15.8 million will be paid on Tzomet’s financial closing date. Tzomet assets have been included within OPC’s property, pland and equipment as it is an asset acquisition.
 
Subsequent to the year end, an outline was determined for the expansion of the activities of the group to which OPC belongs (“the Idan Ofer Group”) in the area of generation of electricity from an economy-wide business concentration perspective. See Note 31.2.A.
 
Also subsequent to the date of the report, on January 3, 2019, OPC signed an agreement with the private shareholders in Tzomet, for which a trustee holds 5% of Tzomet’s share capital (hereinafter – “the Sellers”), whereby the Sellers will sell their shares in Tzomet to the Company (hereinafter – “the Sale Agreement” and “Shares Being Sold”, respectively) in increments, on a number of dates and subject to fulfillment of milestones.
 
The aggregate consideration to be paid by OPC for the Shares Being Sold is NIS 27 million (approximately $7 million), and it is to be paid in installments against a proportionate transfer of the Shares Being Sold to the Company on every payment date and subject to fulfillment of the milestones provided in the Sale Agreement. Upon signing of the Sale Agreement, the first payment is to be made, in the amount of NIS 1.5 million (approximately $400 thousand). The balance of the consideration is to be paid in two installments (against transfer of the balance of the Shares Being Sold, as stated), subject to fulfillment of the milestones in the Tzomet project, where most of the consideration, in the amount of NIS 21 million (approximately $5.6 million), is to be paid upon completion of the financial closing (if and when completed).
 
The Tzomet project is subject to preconditions that have not yet been fulfilled, including approval of a generation license from the Electricity Authority and assurance of the ability to output electricity from the project site and maintenance (reservation) of a position in the network (electricity grid) at the time required for execution of the project. In addition, completion of the Tzomet project is subject to completion of a financial closing by the date required, among other things, by force of Regulation 914, which as at the date of this Report is January 2020. OPC is continuing to take action in order to fulfill the conditions along with execution of other activities – this being for purposes of advancing the Tzomet project toward a financial closing, however there is no certainty that the Tzomet project will ultimately be completed, and that stated is contingent on, among other things, factors not under OPC’s control. Subsequent to the year end, the Electricity Authority published its decision to grant Tzomet a new conditional licence. See Note 31.2.A for more details.
