The transaction consists of a fixed and a variable purchase price. The fixed purchase price is EUR 25 million, which will be paid in three instalments. The first instalment of EUR 10 million has been paid at closing and EUR 15 million will be paid in two instalments during 2024 and 2025.

The variable purchase price is defined based on project sales and completed projects and it amounts to EUR 0–75 million. The variable purchase price will be determined by the end of 2032.
