At closing, the Company made an initial cash payment of $143 million, which excludes holdbacks related to indemnifications and purchase price adjustments. As of September 30, 2017, the purchase price allocation for Alto Sertão II is preliminary. The Company is in the process of assessing the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition, and expects to complete the purchase price allocation within the one year measurement period. Alto Sertão II is a wind farm with total installed capacity of 386 MW reported in the Brazil SBU reportable segment.

Upon completion of the project, expected to be concluded in the first half of 2018, and subject to the solar plants’ compliance with certain technical specifications defined in the agreement, Tietê expects to acquire the solar complex in exchange for the non-convertible debentures and an additional investment of approximately $60 million.
