(NYSE: ENIC) today announced the launch of the preemptive rights offering in connection with the capital increase approved by the company’s shareholders on December 20, 2017, as part of a proposed corporate reorganization of Enel Chile (the “Reorganization”). The Reorganization includes (i) a tender offer by Enel Chile for all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Enel Generación Chile S.A. (“Enel Generación”), including in the form of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), that are not owned by Enel Chile and its affiliates (the “Tender Offer”), (ii) a capital increase by Enel Chile in connection with the Tender Offer and (iii) a merger of Enel Green Power Latin América S.A.

Each share of Enel Chile common stock held of record on February 9, 2018 will entitle its holder to receive one transferable right to subscribe for 0.20370 shares of common stock. Five rights are required to subscribe for one new share at a subscription price of Ch$82 per new share. Enel Chile will accept subscriptions for whole shares only and will not issue fractional shares or cash in lieu of fractional shares.
