Results of Series F Debentures and Series 2 Options Offering in Israel

Further to the announcement by Ellomay Capital Ltd. (the “Company”), dated January 11, 2024, of the results of the institutional and classified investors tender for a new series of unsecured nonconvertible debentures (the “Series F Debentures”) and a new series of options to purchase the Company’s ordinary shares (the “Series 2 Options”), the Company hereby announces that the public bidding for the units consisting of the Series F Debentures and the Series 2 Options was held on January 15, 2024.

Based on the public bidding process, the Company will issue an aggregate principal amount of NIS 170,000,000 of the Series F Debentures and 1,020,000 Series 2 Options. The price per unit (each unit consists of NIS 1,000 par value Series F Debentures and 6 Series 2 Options) determined at the bidding process is NIS 981.

The principal amount of the Series F Debentures is repayable in four installments on March 31 of each of the years 2027 through and including 2030 as follows: 30% of the principal on each of the 2027 and 2028 repayment dates, 25% of the principal on the 2029 repayment date and 15% of the principal on the 2030 repayment date. The Series F Debentures bear a fixed annual interest at the rate of 5.5% (that is not linked to the Israeli CPI or otherwise), payable semi-annually on March 31 and September 30, commencing March 31, 2024 through and including March 31, 2030. The deed of trust governing the Series F Debentures includes customary provisions and also includes the following: (i) a negative pledge such that the Company may not place a floating charge on all of its assets, subject to certain exceptions and (ii) an obligation to pay additional interest for failure to meet certain financial covenants, up to an aggregate increase in the annual interest rate of 0.75%. The deed of trust for the Series F Debentures further includes a number of customary causes for immediate repayment including the default of the Company in connection with certain financial covenants.

The Series 2 Options are exercisable into ordinary shares of the Company at an exercise price of NIS 80 (approximately $21.2) per share, subject to customary adjustments, and are valid through January 5, 2028.

The immediate gross proceeds from the offering will be approximately NIS 166.8 million and the Company expects that the immediate net proceeds from the offering (net of offering expenses and commissions) will be approximately NIS 164.8 million (approximately $43.7 million). In the event all of the Series 2 Options are exercised prior to their expiration date, the Company will receive additional gross proceeds of NIS 81.6 million.

The public offering described in this report was made in Israel only and not to U.S. persons. The Series F Debentures and Series 2 Options will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or applicable exemption from the registration requirements according to the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. This report shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company.
