What is the "Depositary Servicing Fee" that appears on my brokerage statements and why am I being charged this fee?

The Bank of New York Mellon, as Depositary, assesses an annual Depositary Servicing Fee (DSF) to holders of ADSs pursuant to the Deposit Agreement which was filed as an Exhibit to the Registration Form F-6 filed with the SEC upon the establishment of the ADS program. Please refer to Section 5.09 of the Deposit Agreement at (http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1417892/000101915508000011/depositagmtbnyrenesola.htm) and to the Company's Form 20-F (see below). Additionally, the Depositary typically provides notice to the Depository Trust Company (DTCC) 30 days or more in advance of the ADS record date. This notification period allows for sufficient time for brokers to inform their beneficial holders of the upcoming DSF charges at the time of the purchase of ADSs and the ongoing DSF charges following the purchase of ADSs.

On November 21, 2019, the Company and Bank of New York Mellon reached an agreement to waive the annual depositary service fee for the holders of the Company's ADSs. As a result, the owners and holders of the Company’s American Depositary Receipts are no longer obligated to pay the Annual depositary servicing fees.

Are there any other fees that I should be aware of?

In addition to the Depositary Servicing Fee, other event-specific fees may include:
  • Issuance or Cancellation Fees - US$5.00 (or less) per 100 ADSs (or portion of 100 ADSs) (issuance of ADSs, includes but not limited to, delivery of ADSs resulting from deposit of Shares and distribution of stock or rights or other property; cancellation of ADSs, includes but not limited to, the surrender of ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal of Shares and termination of the ADS program)
