The original document was prepared in Portuguese, and in case of any divergence, discrepancy or difference between this version and the Portuguese version, the Portuguese version shall prevail.

 

 

This document contains information with respect to the proposed merger of shares (incorporação de ações) under Brazilian law of Omega Geração S.A. (“Omega Geração”) by Omega Energia S.A. (“Omega Energia”).

 

Omega Geração and Omega Energia are Brazilian companies. Information distributed in connection with the proposed merger of shares (incorporação de ações) under Brazilian law of Omega Geração by Omega Energia is subject to Brazilian disclosure requirements that are different from those of the United States. Any financial statements or financial information included herein has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and accounting practices in Brazil that may not be comparable to the financial statements or financial information of United States companies.

It may be difficult for you to enforce your rights and any claim you may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws in respect of the proposed merger of shares, since the companies are located in Brazil and all of their officers and directors are residents of Brazil. You may not be able to sue the companies or their officers or directors in a Brazilian court for violations of the U.S. securities laws. Finally, it may be difficult to compel the companies and their affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court’s judgment.

You should be aware that the companies may purchase shares of the companies otherwise than through the proposed merger of shares, such as in open market or privately negotiated purchases.

CHAPTER I

JUSTIFICATION OF THE TRANSACTION

SECTION 3

REASONS AND PURPOSES OF THE TRANSACTION AND INTEREST OF THE PARTIES IN THE MERGER OF SHARES

3.1            Reasons and Purposes of the Transaction. The Parties understand that the electricity market shall offer many opportunities for growth in the coming years. Currently, traditional market solutions do not address the needs of consumers, offering analog electricity products and services that are expensive, complex, and of low quality. In the opinion of the Parties, there is an opportunity to reinvent electricity sales in Brazil, offering a simpler and smarter standard for small and medium consumers. To achieve this goal, Omega Energia intends to offer simple and affordable solutions that adapt to the needs of each customer, connecting large consumers, small businesses, and individuals to renewable electric power sources.

3.1.1The Transaction, resulting in a single holding company that develops, implements, and operates renewable projects, shall allow the creation of an integrated digital platform for clean electricity services. The result shall be a fully integrated platform based on four cornerstones:

(i)       Electricity Solutions — Simpler, cleaner, and cheaper digital products. Energy products and

services that better meet the needs of consumers, adding value and simplifying the electricity purchase process.

(ii)Intensive Use of Technology — Connecting stakeholders and expanding margins. Digitalization of Omega Energia's operations through the intensive use of technology and the development of new applications to solve problems, connecting its stakeholders in an increasingly agile and efficient way.
(iii)Development and Management of Renewable Assets — The largest Brazilian renewable generation company: Omega Energia, through its subsidiaries, shall have 1,869 MW of installed capacity and a pipeline of 5,855 MW in renewable projects under development.
(iv)Impact and Sustainability Oriented Initiatives: Omega Energia's mission shall continue to be ensuring the development of an organization that seeks a positive impact for all and focused on a sustainable electricity market and a more prosperous world, promoting an
 
 

open, fair, free-market with more opportunities.

3.2           Benefits. The Transaction, by resulting in a single holding company to hold the interests in

companies engaged in the development of renewable electric power assets, trading, and generation of renewable energy, shall bring relevant positive effects to Omega Geração's shareholders.

3.2.1. Wider scope. The Transaction represents, for Omega Geração's shareholders, the opportunity to participate in a company with a broader scope of activities, including the development of renewable electric power assets, and to supplement the activities currently carried out by Omega Geração.
3.2.2 Full interest in Omega Comercializadora. The Transaction represents, for Omega Geração's shareholders, the opportunity to hold the entire share capital of Omega Comercializadora S.A. ("Omega Comercializadora") and, therefore, fully holding the digital electricity purchase platform launched by Omega Comercializadora in September 2020.
3.2.3 Investment opportunity. The Transaction shall result in increased investment opportunities for Omega Geração, by expanding the company's business scope to a segment that has been responsible for relevant investments over the past few years and which, in general, presents financial returns above the average of the generation of electricity that Omega Geração currently participates.
3.2.4 Investment capacity. The Transaction shall result in an increase in Omega Geração's investment capacity by consolidating the shareholders into a single company.
3.2.5 Synergies. It is expected that the Transaction shall result in synergies arising from the reduction of administrative expenses and optimization of the tax structure through the use of tax credits and losses, simplifying the companies' governance.
3.2.6 Governance. The Transaction shall resolve potential conflicts of interest arising from transactions between related parties by consolidating the shareholders into a single company.

 

3.3             Interest of Shareholders and Benefits for Parties. The Transaction may generate positive

 
 

effects consistent with the increase in the capacity to attract investments through the financial and capital markets and in the improvement of the appreciation of the assets of the Parties, providing the creation of value to shareholders.

3.4             Cost Estimates. It is estimated that the total costs and expenses for carrying out and performing the Transaction, including the fees of legal advisors, appraisers, and auditors, and the costs for carrying out and publishing the corporate acts, are around BRL 33,000,000.00.

3.5 Management opinion. The managers of Omega Energia and Omega Geração render their opinion in favor of carrying out the Transaction and recommend its approval by the shareholders' meeting of Omega Energia and Omega Geração, whose effectiveness shall be subject to the fulfillment of the Conditions Precedent for the Merger of Shares (as defined in Section 19.1 below).

SECTION 7

CALCULATION OF THE REPLACEMENT RATIO FOR COMPARATIVE PURPOSES

7.1              Calculation of the replacement ratio for comparative purposes. Pursuant to Article 264 of the Brazilian Corporations Act and Article 8 of ICVM 565, as Omega Energia and Omega Geração are companies under common control, it is necessary to include in the justification presented to the shareholders' meeting, exclusively for informational and comparative purposes, the calculation of the replacement ratios for Omega Geração's shares based on the net equity value of the shares of Omega Energia and Omega Geração, appraising both assets according to the same criteria and on the same date, at market prices. In this case, once the valuation of the two assets at market prices is carried out, the comparative replacement ratio is the result of the division: (a) the market-adjusted shareholders' equity value per share of Omega Geração, (b) the market-adjusted equity value per share of Omega Energia.

7.2              Report of Article 264. In compliance with the provisions of Article 264 of the Brazilian Corporations Act, Omega Energia engaged BERKAN CONSULTORIA EMPRESARIAL LTDA., a limited liability company, with its principal place of business in the Municipality of Blumenau, State of Santa Catarina, at Rua Guarani, 63, Garcia, CEP 89021-110, registered with the CNPJ under No 19.493.096/0001-03 ("Appraiser — Article 264") for the appraisal of the net equity of Omega Geração and Omega Energia adjusted to market prices ("Appraisal Report — Article 264"), and which is provided for in Exhibit 7.2.

7.2.1Costs and expenses. Omega Energia shall bear all costs and expenses related to the preparation of the Appraisal Report — Article 264, including the Appraiser’s fees — Article 264.

7.3 Appraiser — Article 264's Statement Pursuant to current legislation, the Appraiser — Article 264 stated that: (i) it is not the direct or indirect owner of any security or derivative listed under

 
 

securities and issued by the Parties of Omega Geração or Omega Energia; and (b) it is not aware of a conflict of interest, direct or indirect, that reduces the independence necessary for the performance of their duties.

7.4       Replacement ratio for comparative purposes. If the replacement ratio was calculated based on the criterion of net equity at market prices, Omega Geração shareholders would receive 1.791848584 new common shares, registered, book-entry, and without par value issued by Omega Energia for each common, registered, book-entry share without par value issued by Omega Geração held by it ("Comparative Replacement Ratio").

 

SECTION 8

RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL AND REFUND AMOUNT IN THE MERGER OF SHARES

8.1       Right of withdrawal by Omega Geração's shareholders. It shall be granted to Omega Geração's shareholders who do not approve the Merger of Shares, whether by disagreement, abstention, or non-attendance, the right to withdraw from Omega Geração, pursuant to article 252, paragraph 1.2 of the Brazilian Corporations Act.

 

8.1.1The shareholders may exercise the right of withdrawal regarding Omega Geração's shares, which they were proven to hold, without interruption, between September 24, 2021, subject to the negotiations carried out on the date hereof, including the date of disclosure of a material fact informing the performance of the Transaction, and the Closing Date, pursuant to Article 137, paragraph 1, of the Brazilian Corporations Act.

8.2             Term for exercising Omega Geração's right to withdraw. Pursuant to the provisions of Article 230 and Article 137, IV, paragraph 1, and paragraph 4, of the Brazilian Corporations Act, Omega Geração's shareholders shall, under penalty of forfeiture, exercise their withdrawal rights within a period of 30 days from the publication of the minutes of the shareholders' meeting of Omega Geração that approves the Merger of Shares.

8.3              Disbursement amount. Shareholders exercising the right to withdraw from Omega Geração shall receive, as reimbursement, the amount of BRL 19.562005009804 per share, which corresponds to the equity value (valor patrimonial) of Omega Geração's shares, disregarding treasury shares, on the date hereof, as per the approved financial statements of Omega Geração, on December 31, 2020, subject to the terms of Article 45, paragraph 1.2 of the Brazilian Corporations Act, subject to the possibility of reviewing the reimbursement amount.

8.4              Refund payment. The value of the refunded shares shall be paid to disagreeing

 
 

shareholders on the Closing Date.

8.5              Refund amount review. Pursuant to Article 45, paragraph 2, of the Brazilian Corporations Act, disagreeing shareholders of Omega Geração may, upon withdrawal, request a special balance sheet to determine the reimbursement value of the shares.

8.6              Special balance sheet base date. The special balance sheet shall be drawn up on a date prior to the approval of the Merger of Shares, a date to be set by Omega Geração's management, subject to a period of, at most, 60 days between the date of drawing up the special balance sheet and the date of approval of the Merger of shares.

8.7              Payment of part of the refund amount. If there is a request to draw up a special balance, the requesting shareholder shall receive, on the Closing Date, 80% of the reimbursement amount calculated based on the net equity of Omega Geração on December 31, 2020, and the balance sheet, if any, paid within 120 days of the Closing Date.

8.8              Alternative refund amount. Since the Comparative Replacement Ratio is more advantageous for Omega Geração's shareholders than the Replacement Ratio (as defined below) actually adopted, Omega Geração's shareholders that disagree with the resolution approving the Merger of Shares may choose, in the act of exercise of the right of withdrawal, to receive, as reimbursement, the amount of BRL 24.221866192866 per share, which corresponds to the equity value (valor patrimonial) of Omega Geração's shares, adjusted to market prices, disregarding treasury shares, pursuant to Article 264, paragraph 3, of the Brazilian Corporations Act

8.9              Maintenance of shares reimbursed in treasury. Pursuant to Article 45, paragraph 5 of the Brazilian Corporations Act, the reimbursement shall be paid regarding Omega Geração's retained earnings, except for the unavailable reserves, pursuant to Article 7, paragraph 1, I, of CVM Instruction No 567, of September 17, 2015 ("ICVM 567"), and the reimbursed shares shall be held in treasury for subsequent cancellation and/or disposal.

8.10          Other information. Specific procedures for exercising the right of withdrawal shall be disclosed in due course when the Transaction is approved by the Omega Geração's shareholders' meeting.
