Revision to IMA and OMA

25 February 2025

The Renewables Infrastructure Group Limited "TRIG" or "the Company", a London-listed renewables investment company advised by InfraRed Capital Partners ("InfraRed") as Investment Manager and Renewable Energy Systems ("RES") as Operations Manager.

Revision to Investment Management Agreement and Operations Management Agreement

The Board of The Renewables Infrastructure Group Limited announces that it has agreed in principle with its Investment Manager, InfraRed Capital Partners, and its Operations Manager, Renewable Energy Systems Limited, (together the "Managers") to revise the fees payable under the Investment Management Agreement ("IMA") and the Operations Management Agreement ("OMA") ("Management Fee") with effect from 1 April 2025. It is the Board's view that the changes agreed further align the Managers with TRIG's strategy and the interests of shareholders, while retaining the distinctive scope and benefits embedded in the TRIG management approach. 

Under the terms of the revised IMA and OMA, rather than being applied to adjusted portfolio value, the new management fee will instead be applied to an equal weighting of (i) the average of the closing daily market capitalisation during each quarter and (ii) the published Net Asset Value for the quarter. At the prevailing share price, this change will result in a reduction in the ongoing, annualised Management Fee by 28%, compared to the Management Fee paid in 2024. The existing Management Fee thresholds and rates applied will remain unchanged.

In addition, to improve the alignment of the Managers further in achieving positive outcomes for shareholders, a fee ("Transaction Fee") will be payable in respect of certain future transactions including sales of investments and the raising of new debt financing. No fee will apply to transactions in progress, which are expected to raise about £300 million of proceeds in aggregate. Thereafter, qualifying transactions will be subject to prior Board approval. Fees on such disposals of assets and new incremental debt financings will be 0.5% of the relevant transaction value. The combination of the Management Fee and Transaction Fees in any one calendar year shall not exceed the quantum of the Management Fee that would have been charged under the present arrangements.

In order to incentivise the Managers to achieve the best result for shareholders in the event of a takeover or an equivalent asset sale, the Board has agreed a fee payable to the Managers of 3% of the value achieved in excess of net asset value and 3% of the value achieved in excess of market capitalisation (pro-rated accordingly in relation to an equivalent asset sale). Such a fee would be capped at 4.99% of the lower of net asset value or market capitalisation.

These changes remain subject to documentation and, where applicable, regulatory requirements.

Revisions to the IMA and OMA do not impact arrangements that project companies enter into from time to time with the Managers to provide operational services including in relation to revenue management, site asset management, operations and maintenance, and construction and development services. Prior approval by the Board of TRIG will continue to be required where such fees fall outside the Managers' delegated parameters. Such operational expenses of projects will continue to be monitored by the Board's Management Engagement Committee and disclosed in the Company's Report & Accounts.
