Cloudberry Clean Energy ASA | Cloudberry enters Denmark. Transformative transaction increasing power capacity by 70%

10 Feb 2023 14:15 CET

Oslo, Norway, 10 February 2023: Cloudberry Clean Energy ASA's ("Cloudberry" or
the "Company") has today indirectly signed a sale and purchase agreement with
Skovgaard Energy A/S ("Skovgaard"), a Danish renewable energy developer. The
agreement secures Cloudberry a majority stake in a portfolio consisting of up to
51 high-quality wind turbines in production, with 47 turbines located in Denmark
and additional 4 turbines in southern Sweden.

Cloudberry will acquire 80% ownership in the newly established company Odin
Energy P/S ("Odin") while Skovgaard will keep a 20% ownership. This adds a total
capacity of 106 MW (~311 GWh) net to Cloudberry.  The turbines are high quality
Vestas and Siemens turbines with an average expected remaining lifetime of about
23 years.

The partnership between Skovgaard and Cloudberry will further increase the
transition to green energy in Europe and opens up for more innovative and
sustainable projects in the Nordics.  Cloudberry accelerates towards a
production level of ~800 GWh per annum following the transaction and will
diversify the portfolio with assets in one of the most attractive price areas in
the Nordics.

"We are proud to have established a scalable partnership with Jørgen Skovgaard
and his team.  Denmark in general, and Skovgaard Energy in particular, have
industry-leading experience. Add the size of the portfolio, immediate cash-flow
and further growth opportunities, and the acquisition represents a gamechanger
for Cloudberry and our long-term strategy. This puts us in a favorable position
of becoming the leading Nordic Independent Power Producer, that can act locally
and be a long-term responsible developer and owner of Danish wind and possibly
solar assets", says Anders Lenborg, CEO Cloudberry.

The step into the Danish market creates a strong position for Cloudberry in
Northern Europe, and a diversification of our portfolio given the recent
headwinds created by the proposed tax changes in Norway.

"We in Skovgaard are excited to start our journey with Cloudberry as a leading
Nordic Independent Power Producer. The transaction will make it possible for
Skovgaard to accelerate our Power to-X initiatives and put Jylland on the energy
-map for integrated energy solutions.  We are currently scaling our local
development team to grow and assist Cloudberry with new and local opportunities,
including wind/solar solutions and re-powering" says Jørgen Skovgaard, Chairman
Skovgaard Energy A/S.

The agreed enterprise value for 80% of Odin Energy is DKK 1,488 million. The
final purchase price will be reduced with the cash flow generation between 1[st]
of January 2023 to Closing, potential pre-emptive rights in Tranche 2 (as
described below) and adjustments related to net debt and net working capital.
 As part of the transaction and included in the enterprise value, Odin will also
purchase the land associated with 44 (~95%) of the Danish turbines and certain
rights to new wind and solar projects through a development agreement with
Skovgaard.

The transaction will be divided into two tranches, where Tranche 1 includes all
entities which are wholly owned and partially owned entities without pre-emptive
rights (approx. 247 GWh). Tranche 2 covers entities which are partially owned
with pre-emptive rights (approx. 64 GWh). For the entities included in Tranche
2, the existing co-owners have certain shareholder rights (such as inter alia
right of first refusal) which may be triggered by the transaction. Consequently,
the exact size of the portfolio to be transferred in relation to Tranche 2 is
subject to changes.

The acquisition of the portfolio will be fully financed by existing cash and the
existing bank facility available to Cloudberry by Nordic banks (approx. 50%
equity and 50% debt).  With the expected cash flow generation from the enlarged
producing portfolio and a low levered balance sheet, Cloudberry has capacity to
fund further growth such as assets in the development portfolio.

The transaction is inter alia subject to approval from Danish authorities with
Closing estimated in latter part of Q2 2023. Please find further details in the
attached presentation which will be presented as part of the Q4 2022 report on
Tuesday 14 Feb 2023.
