NOTICE OF DEFAULT May 11, 2016 BY OVERNIGHT COURIER TerraForm Global Operating, LLC 7550 Wisconsin Avenue, 9th Floor Bethesda, Maryland 20814 Attn: Rebecca Cranna, EVP & Chief Financial Officer Re: Notice of Default Dear Ms. Cranna: Reference is made to that certain Indenture, dated as of August 5, 2015 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”), between TerraForm Global Operating, LLC (“Issuer”), the Guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, relating to the 9.75% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this letter shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture. The undersigned are the beneficial holders (“Holders”) collectively of approximately 25.6% of the non-treasury Notes in the outstanding principal amount of over $191.4 million. The undersigned are willing to make their individual holdings available to the Issuer on a confidential basis upon request. The Issuer has failed to comply with its obligations under Section 4.03(a)(1) of the Indenture by failing, among other things, to timely furnish an annual report of the Issuer for the fiscal year 2015 containing substantially all of the financial information that would be required to be contained in an annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act, including, among other things, audited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer’s independent registered public accounting firm. Notwithstanding Section 4.03(f), such non-compliance constitutes an immediate default under Section 6.01(3) of the Indenture. The undersigned hereby provide written notice of such default to the Issuer and the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.01(3). Pursuant thereto, failure to comply with Section 4.03(a)(1) within 90 days after this written notice is given shall constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.
