This Amendment No. 13 (this “Amendment No. 13”) to Schedule 13D is being filed by Orion US Holdings 1 L.P., Orion US GP LLC, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III GP LLC, Brookfield Asset Management Private Institutional Capital Adviser (Canada), L.P., Brookfield Asset Management Inc. and Partners Limited to amend the Schedule 13D filed on June 29, 2016 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on July 22, 2016, Amendment No. 2 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on October 19, 2016, Amendment No. 3 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on November 10, 2016, Amendment No. 4 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on November 18, 2016, Amendment No. 5 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on December 5, 2016, Amendment No. 6 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on January 10, 2017, Amendment No. 7 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on January 23, 2017, Amendment No. 8 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on February 21, 2017, Amendment No. 9 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on March 8, 2017, Amendment No. 10 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on May 17, 2017, Amendment No. 11 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on October 17, 2017 and Amendment No. 12 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on October 18, 2017 (as so amended, the “Amended Schedule 13D”), with respect to beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of TerraForm Power, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the state of Delaware.

This Amendment No. 13 hereby amends Items 4, 6 and 7 of the Amended Schedule 13D as follows:
 
 
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Amended Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:

In connection with the Issuer’s announced cash tender offer to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Saeta Yield, S.A. (the “Saeta Tender Offer”), it is anticipated that the Issuer’s funding of such Saeta Tender Offer may include an equity offering of Class A Shares on a pro rata basis to existing stockholders of the Issuer of up to approximately $400 million (such potential equity offering, the “Equity Offering”). The pricing, size and timing of the Equity Offering (including the decision to use the Back-Stop) would be subject to prior review and approval of the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “Conflicts Committee”), together with any other necessary approvals, and would reflect then-current market conditions and relevant market practice for such offerings. In addition, the Issuer would retain an independent financial advisor in respect of the Equity Offering and such financial advisor would provide advice to the Issuer and the Conflicts Committee as to the then-current market conditions and market practice.

In connection with the Equity Offering, on February 6, 2018, Brookfield and the Issuer entered into a Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”). Pursuant to the Support Agreement, Brookfield agreed that, if requested by the Issuer, Brookfield would provide a back-stop to the Issuer for up to 100% of the Equity Offering (such agreement, the “Back-Stop”) if the offering price per Class A Share to stockholders of the Issuer in the Equity Offering equals the five-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Class A Shares ending the trading day prior to the Issuer’s announcement of the Saeta Tender Offer.
 
Brookfield’s obligations in relation to the provision of the Back-Stop under the Support Agreement are subject to successful commencement of the Saeta Tender Offer under applicable Spanish law and to prior effectiveness of the registration statement, if required, that the Issuer would file in connection with the Equity Offering, and such obligations would not apply to any Equity Offering commenced prior to May 1, 2018 or after September 30, 2018.  Subject to the foregoing, if the Back-Stop is exercised by the Issuer, one or more Brookfield affiliates may purchase Class A Shares in accordance with the Back-Stop under the Support Agreement.  One or more Brookfield affiliates may also otherwise participate in the Equity Offering.
 
No fee would be payable to Brookfield in connection with the Back-Stop or the entry into the Support Agreement.

The Support Agreement does not (i) require the Issuer to make or complete the Saeta Tender Offer, (ii) require the Issuer to make or complete any Equity Offering or (iii) commit the Issuer to an Equity Offering at any particular price, of any particular size or at any particular time.
 

 
The foregoing descriptions of the Equity Offering and Support Agreement do not purport to be complete. The foregoing description of the Support Agreement is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Support Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.14 and incorporated herein by reference.

Other than as set forth in the Amended Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D (although the Reporting Persons reserve the right to develop such plans or proposals, subject to compliance with applicable laws).
 
 
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
Item 6 of the Amended Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:
 
The information set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 13 is incorporated by reference into Item 6 of the Amended Schedule 13D.

Except as described in this Amendment No. 13 and the Amended Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons are not currently parties to any other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with respect to any securities of the Issuer.
 
 
Item 7. Materials to Be Filed as Exhibits.

99.14 Support Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2018, by and between Brookfield Asset Management Inc. and TerraForm Power, Inc.

NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged), the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
1.
Provision of the Back-Stop
 
(a) Brookfield hereby agrees that, if requested by TerraForm, Brookfield will provide a back-stop to Terraform for up to 100% of the Equity Offering (such agreement, the “Back-Stop”) if the offering price to TerraForm stockholders in the Equity Offering equals TerraForm’s five-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) ending the trading day prior to TerraForm’s announcement of the Saeta transaction.

(b) Brookfield’s obligations under Section 1(a) are subject to successful commencement of the Tender Offer under applicable Spanish law and to prior effectiveness of the necessary TerraForm registration statement, if required.  Brookfield’s obligations under Section 1(a) will not apply to any Equity Offering commenced prior to May 1, 2018 or after September 30, 2018.
 
Brookfield acknowledges and agrees that no fee shall be payable to Brookfield in connection with the Back-Stop or the entry into this Agreement.  TerraForm acknowledges and agrees that the Conflicts Committee of the TerraForm Board of Directors (the “Conflicts Committee”) has agreed to and approved the matters set forth in this Agreement.
 
2.
Terms of the Equity Offering
 
Brookfield and TerraForm acknowledge and agree that the pricing, size and timing of the Equity Offering (including the decision to use the Back-Stop) will be subject to prior review and approval of the Conflicts Committee, together with any other necessary approvals, and will reflect then-current market conditions and relevant market practice for such offerings.   It is further acknowledged and agreed that TerraForm will retain an independent financial advisor in respect of the Equity Offering and that such financial advisor will provide advice to TerraForm and the Conflicts Committee as to the then-current market conditions and market practice.
