			<font style="display:inline;font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif;">The completion of the sale is subject, among other standard closing conditions, to competition clearance from the Spanish anti-trust commission (CNMC) and to the administrative authorization by the regional government of the early termination of the existing financial lease of the hydroelectric power plants (similar to authorizations granted by the same body for previous early cancellations in 2012 and 2002). No other administrative or regulatory approval is required. Ferroglobe expects the closing of the transaction to take place during the third quarter of 2019.</font>
