Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement 

 

On May 9, 2017, a jointly-owned subsidiary of Sunrun Inc. (“Sunrun”) and National Grid entered into an aggregate $202 million of senior secured credit facilities. The facilities are syndicated with various lenders and consist of the following:

 

(i)

$195 million delayed draw term loan facility with an initial interest rate of LIBOR + 275 basis points until April 30, 2021, stepping up to LIBOR + 300 basis points thereafter; and

 

 

 

(ii)

$7 million debt service reserve letter of credit facility.

 

The facilities are non-recourse to Sunrun and are secured by net cash flows from power purchase agreements and leases as well as the sale of renewable energy certificates generated by residential solar projects, less certain operating, maintenance and other expenses which are available to the borrowers after distributions to tax equity investors. The delayed draw term loan facility has an advance rate of 65%. Sunrun paid aggregate banking fees of 2.13% of the aggregate facility amounts, and the loans were issued without any original issue discount. The facilities contain customary covenants including the requirement to maintain certain financial measurements and provide lender reporting. The credit facilities also contain certain provisions in the event of default which entitle lenders to take certain actions including acceleration of amounts due under the facilities. 

All facilities mature on April 30, 2024.
