Ellomay Capital Ltd. (NYSE MKT: ELLO; TASE: ELOM) ("Ellomay" or the "Company") an emerging operator in the renewable energy and energy infrastructure sector, today announced the execution of definitive agreements for the purchase of 3 photovoltaic (solar) plants with approximately 5.6MWp (with nominal output of approximately 5.2MWn) in the aggregate (the "PV Plants"). The PV Plants are ground mounted fixed technology plants and are located in Murcia, Spain. The PV Plants are already constructed and operating and were connected to the Spanish national grid in 2011. The Company previously announced its entry into a binding Letter of Intent in this regard in May 2014. The PV Plants will be acquired from a Spanish company (the "Seller") whose German parent company has entered into insolvency proceedings. The PV Plants and all associated assets and rights will be purchased by Ellomay for an aggregate purchase price of Euro 9.5 million (approximately US$13 million), subject to certain purchase price adjustments. The closing of the transactions is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to occur by the end of the third quarter of 2014. Upon closing of the acquisitions, Ellomay will more than triple the current production capacity of Ellomay's existing photovoltaic sites in Spain to approximately 7.9MWp. The PV Plants join the Company's thirteen existing photovoltaic sites in Italy and Spain, increasing their aggregate capacity to more than 30MWp. The Company expects that the annual revenue from the PV Plants will be approximately Euro 2 million (approximately US$ 2.7 million), and together with the Company's entire PV portfolio the annual revenue for 2014 will be approximately Euro 13.2 million (approximately US$18 million). Ran Fridrich, CEO of Ellomay noted that "The PV Plants will be acquired at an attractive price and will contribute to the enhancement and diversification of the Company's PV portfolio. Ellomay will continue to seek attractive opportunities in the energy sector and leverage its excellent capabilities to identify and execute such transactions."
