Capitalised terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Prospectus.

    1. As announced by Cenergy Holdings on 11 October 2024, 22,222,222 new ordinary shares of no nominal value of the Company (the "New Shares") at a price per New Share of €9.00 (the "Offer Price") have been issued pursuant to the Offer.
    1. The New Shares were offered in parallel through:
    2. (a) a public offer in Belgium (the "Belgian Public Offer") and Greece (the "Greek Public Offer", and together with the Belgian Public Offer, the "Public Offer") within the meaning of Article 2(d) of Regulation (EU) 1129/2017 (the "Prospectus Regulation"); and
    3. (b) private placements to certain institutional investors in various jurisdictions, in reliance upon the exemptions from the requirement to publish a prospectus under the Prospectus Regulation and other applicable laws (the "Institutional Offer" and, together with the Public Offer, the "Offer"). Goldman Sachs International acted as sole global coordinator and joint bookrunner for the Offer (the "Sole Global Coordinator"), Alpha Bank S.A. and HSBC Continental Europe acted as Joint Bookrunners for the Offer (together with the Sole Global Coordinator, the "Joint Bookrunners") and Eurobank S.A., Euroxx Securities S.A., National Bank of Greece S.A., Optima bank S.A., Pantelakis Securities S.A., Piraeus Bank S.A. and ING Belgium NV/SA acted as co-lead managers for the Offer (the "Co-Lead Managers" and together with the Joint Bookrunners, the "Underwriters").
    1. Subject to the Prescribed Allocation and the Preferential Allocation, and subject to demand, and as set out in the Prospectus, allocation of the New Shares was provisionally split between the Institutional Offer and the Public Offer as follows:
    2. (a) 80.00% of the New Shares were to be allocated to Institutional Investors subscribing for the Institutional Offer; and
    3. (b) 20.00% of the New Shares were to be allocated to Retail Investors and/or Qualified Investors subscribing for the Public Offer, including a minimum of 10.00% of the New Shares reserved to Retail Investors resident (in the case of individual persons) or located (in the case of legal entities) in Belgium (the "Belgian Retail Investors"), in accordance with Belgian regulations (the "Prescribed Allocation").

As set out in the Prospectus, the final number of New Shares to be allocated to the Institutional Offer, the Belgian Public Offer and the Greek Public Offer (including in the event that such offers are over-subscribed) was to be determined at the end of the Offer Period by the Company in consultation with the Sole Global Coordinator, on the basis of the respective demand in each of the Institutional Offer, the Belgian Public Offer and the Greek Public Offer, and on the quantitative, and, for Institutional Investors only, the qualitative analysis of the order book, subject in each case to the Prescribed Allocation and the Preferential Allocation, as applicable.

  1. The Offer Period closed on 10 October 2024, with demand in excess of the New Shares in the Offer.

In the final allocation, the Company determined that the New Shares would be allocated between the Public Offer and the Institutional Offer as follows:

  • (i) 4,436,444 New Shares (namely 19.96% of the totality of the New Shares) were allocated to Retail Investors and/or Qualified Investors who subscribed for the Greek Public Offer;
  • (ii) 8,000 New Shares (namely 0.04% of the totality of the New Shares) were allocated to Retail Investors who subscribed for the Belgian Public Offer (no Qualified Investors subscribed for the Belgian Public Offer); and
  • (iii) 17,777,778 New Shares (namely 80.00% of the totality of the New Shares) were allocated to Institutional Investors who subscribed for the Institutional Offer.
    1. The total valid demand at the Offer Price that was expressed in the Offer (i.e. in aggregate through the Public Offer and the Institutional Offer) amounted to 65,819,045 New Shares, oversubscribing the 22,222,222 New Shares that have been issued pursuant to the Offer, equal to the quotient of the final amount to be raised through the Offer, divided by the Offer Price.

More specifically, taking into account valid subscriptions only and in connection with the Public Offer:

  • (i) the total demand that was expressed in the Greek Public Offer amounted to EUR 96,631,767, corresponding to 10,736,863 New Shares (on the basis of the Offer Price), divided as follows:
    • (a) the demand from Retail Investors subscribing for the Greek Public Offer amounted to EUR 38,320,506, corresponding to 4,257,834 New Shares (on the basis of the Offer Price); and
    • (b) the demand from Qualified Investors subscribing for the Greek Public Offer amounted to EUR 58,311,261, corresponding to 6,479,029 New Shares.
  • (ii) the total demand that was expressed in the Belgian Public Offer (in which only Retail Investors participated) amounted to 8,000 New Shares, corresponding to EUR 72,000 (on the basis of the Offer Price).
  • (iii) Moreover, in the Institutional Offer, taking into account valid subscriptions only, the total demand that was expressed exceeded multiple times the New Shares provisionally allocated in the Institutional Offer as described above.
    1. The total of 4,444,444 New Shares allocated to the Public Offer were allocated as follows:
    2. (i) 4,436,444 New Shares (namely 19.96% of totality of the New Shares) were allocated in the Greek Public Offer, on the basis of the valid demand, as follows:
      • (a) 1,296,312 New Shares (29.22% of the Greek Public Offer) were allocated to Existing Minority Shareholders that validly subscribed for New Shares in the Greek Public Offer and were entitled to Preferential Allocation;
      • (b) the remaining 3,140,132 New Shares (namely 70.78 % of New Shares allocated to the Greek Public Offer) to Existing Minority Shareholders who oversubscribed

and new investors, following the pro-rata allocation based on the unsubscribed New Shares in the Greek Public Offer; and

(c) 2,788,087 New Shares (namely 62.85% of New Shares) were allocated to Qualified Investors and 1,648,357 New Shares (namely 37.15% of New Shares) to Retail Investors.

The total valid demand in the Greek Public Offer exceeded multiple times the provisionally allocated amount to the Greek Public Offer. The investors in the Greek Public Offer are informed about any reduction percentage of their subscription applications through their DSS Participants.

(ii) 8,000 New Shares (namely 0.04% of totality of the New Shares) were allocated in the Belgian Public Offer, on the basis of the valid demand expressed at the Offer Price, equal to total valid demand by investors subscribing for the Belgian Public Offer.

It is noted that out of the 8,000 New Shares which were allocated in the Belgian Public Offer, 8,000 New Shares (namely 100.00% of the Belgian Public Offer) were allocated to Existing Minority Shareholders that validly subscribed for New Shares in the Belgian Public Offer and were entitled to Preferential Allocation, equal to total valid demand by Existing Minority Shareholders subscribing for the Belgian Public Offer that were entitled to Preferential Allocation (which demand and therefore allocation, however, exceeded such investors' Preferential Allocation).

    1. It is noted that out of the 17,777,778 New Shares which were allocated in the Institutional Offer, 14,854,408 New Shares (namely 83.56% of the Institutional Offer) were allocated to new investors that validly subscribed for New Shares in the Institutional Offer and 2,923,370 New Shares (namely 16.44% ofthe Institutional Offer) were allocated to existing shareholders that validly subscribed for New Shares in the Institutional Offer and were entitled to Preferential Allocation (this allocation, however, exceeded such investors' Preferential Allocation).
    1. As a result of the above, 6.78% of the New Offer Shares were allocated pursuant to the Preferential Allocation. Existing Minority Shareholders who subscribed for the Offer in accordance with the process described in the Prospectus did not undergo any dilution, unless they submitted a subscription application for a lower number of New Shares (in the Belgian Public Offer or in the Institutional Offer) or monetary amount (in the Greek Public Offer), in which case they received Preferential Allocation only to the extent of such number of New Shares or monetary amount subscribed for.
    1. The total gross proceeds raised by the Company from the Offer, before deducting expenses, will amount to €199,999,998 (22,222,222 New Shares multiplied by the Offer Price of €9.00).
    1. Pursuant to the underwriting agreement dated 10 October 2024, entered into between the Underwriters and the Company (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Underwriters have agreed to procure that investors pay, or failing which to themselves pay (in accordance with each Underwriters' commitment as set out in Prospectus, each acting severally and not jointly nor jointly and severally), to the Company an amount equal to the product of the Offer Price and the number of New Shares. It is noted that the Greek Underwriters did not submit subscription applications in the Greek Public Offer for their own account, with the exception of (a) Alpha Bank S.A. which was allocated 29,566 New Shares for its own account in the Greek Public Offer; and (b) Eurobank S.A. which was allocated 13,426 New Shares for its own account in the Greek Public Offer.
