 Appendix A – Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted FFO  27  Use of NON-IFRS Financial MeasuresAdjusted EBITDA and Adjusted FFO are non-IFRS measures. EBITDA is defined as earnings before financial expenses, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization and FFO (funds from operations) is calculated by adding tax and financing expenses to EBITDA. The Company uses the terms “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted FFO” to highlight the fact that the Company presents the revenues from the Talmei Yosef PV plant under the fixed asset model and not under IFRIC 12 and presents its share in Dorad based on distributions of profit and not on the basis of equity gain using the equity method in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The Company presents these measures in order to enhance the understanding of the Company’s operating performance and to enable comparability between periods. While the Company considers these non-IFRS measures to be important measures of comparative operating performance, these non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS as a measure of profitability or liquidity. These non-IFRS measures do not take into account our commitments, including capital expenditures and restricted cash and, accordingly, are not necessarily indicative of amounts that may be available for discretionary uses. In addition, Adjusted FFO does not represent and is not an alternative to cash flow from operations as defined by IFRS and is not an indication of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to make distributions. Not all companies calculate Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted FFO in the same manner, and the measures as presented may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. Our actual Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted FFO may not be indicative of our historic operating results; nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. The Company uses these measures internally as performance measures and believes that when these measures are combined with IFRS measures they add useful information concerning the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation between measures on an IFRS and non-IFRS basis is provided in this slide.  Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA & Adjusted FFO (in € millions)    2021 (E)  2022 (E)  2023 (E)  2024 (E)  Net income for the period, adjusted as set forth in the notes below  0  3  8  10  Interest on bank loans, debentures and others  12  13  15-16  16-17  Taxes on income  0 ~  1  3  4  Depreciation  13-14  16-17  22-23  25-26  Adjusted EBITDA  25-26  33-34  48-50  55-57  Interest on bank loans, debentures and others  (12)  (13)  (15-16)  (16-17)  Taxes on income  (0 ~)  (1)  (3)  (4)  Adjusted FFO  13-14  19-20  30-31  35-36  The PV Plant located in Talmei Yosef, Israel is presented under the fixed asset model and not under the financial asset model as per IFRIC 12.The company’s share in Dorad is presented based on distributions of profits and not on the basis of equity gain using the equity method.The expected revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and FFO of the Talasol PV plant include minority holdings.Adjusted FFO is presented after projects and corporate financing and tax expenses.  •  •  •  •            Adjusted EBITDA  25-26  33-34  48-50  55-57  G&A corporate and project development costs   5  5  5  5  Adjusted EBITDA from projects  30-31  38-39  53-55  60-62                      Adjusted FFO  13-14  19-20  30-31  35-36  G&A corporate and project development costs   5  5  5  5  Interest on debentures  3  4  4  4  Adjusted FFO from projects  21-22  28-29  39-40  44-45

The Company presents these measures in order to enhance the understanding of the Company’s leverage ratios and borrowings.While the Company considers these measures to be an important measure of leverage, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for long-term borrowings or other balance sheet data prepared in accordance with IFRS as a measure of leverage. Not all companies calculate these measures in the same manner, and the measure as presented may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.  Calculation of Leverage Ratios (in € thousands) 
 
 Appendix C – Biogas EBITDA and Adjusted FFO  29  Use of NON-IFRS Financial MeasuresEBITDA and Adjusted FFO are non-IFRS measures. EBITDA is defined as earnings before financial expenses, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization and FFO (funds from operations) is calculated by adding tax and financing expenses to EBITDA. The Company uses the term “Adjusted FFO” to highlight the fact that the financing expenses presented in the calculation of Adjusted FFO exclude interest on inter-company loans. The Company presents these measures in order to enhance the understanding of the Company’s bio gas operations and to enable comparability between periods. While the Company considers these non- IFRS measures to be important measures of comparative operating performance, these non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS as a measure of profitability or liquidity. These non-IFRS measures do not take into account our commitments, including capital expenditures and restricted cash and, accordingly, are not necessarily indicative of amounts that may be available for discretionary uses. In addition, Adjusted FFO does not represent and is not an alternative to cash flow from operations as defined by IFRS and is not an indication of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to make distributions. Not all companies calculate EBITDA or Adjusted FFO in the same manner, and the measures as presented may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. The Company uses these measures internally as performance measures and believes that when these measures are combined with IFRS measures they add useful information concerning the Company’s operating performance.
