In connection with the Private Placement, on November 21, 2014, TerraForm Power entered into subscription agreements with each investor.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the Private Placement, TerraForm Power entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the purchasers of the Shares, pursuant to which TerraForm Power agreed to (i) file a registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the resale of the Shares, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than 30 days following the closing date, and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts, subject to receipt of necessary information from all the purchasers of the Shares, to cause the SEC to declare the Resale Registration Statement effective by the earlier of (a) five (5) business days after the SEC has advised TerraForm Power that the Resale Registration Statement has not been selected for review by the SEC, (b) five (5) business days after the SEC has advised TerraForm Power that it has no further comments to the Resale Registration Statement, or (iii) 90 days after the closing date of the Private Placement.
The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement. A copy of the Registration Rights Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to purchase, the Shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation would be unlawful.
