EXPLANATORY NOTE
On February 7, 2018, TerraForm Power, Inc. (Nasdaq: TERP) (the "Company") announced that it intends to launch a voluntary tender offer (the "Tender Offer") to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Saeta Yield, S.A., a Spanish corporation ("Saeta") and a leading, publicly-listed European owner and operator of wind and solar assets, located primarily in Spain. The Tender Offer will be for €12.20 in cash per share of Saeta. The Tender Offer is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2018, subject to certain closing conditions.
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Irrevocable Agreement to Launch Tender Offer
On February 6, 2018, TERP Spanish HoldCo, S.L., a subsidiary of the Company entered into an Irrevocable Undertaking Agreement for the launch and acceptance of the takeover bid for the shares of Saeta Yield, S.A. (the "Irrevocable Agreement"), with Cobra Concesiones, S.L., a company incorporated under the laws of Spain ("Cobra") and GIP II Helios, S.à r.l., a société à responsabilité limitée organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg ("GIP"), an Irrevocable Undertaking Agreement with Mutuactivos, S.A.U., S.G.I.I.C, a company incorporated under the laws of Spain ("Mutuactivos") and an Irrevocable Undertaking Agreement with Sinergia Advisors 2006, A.V., S.A., a company incorporated under the laws of Spain ("Sinergia" and, together with Cobra , GIP and Mutuactivos, the "Selling Stockholders") pursuant to which the Company has agreed to launch the Tender Offer. Under the terms of these Irrevocable Undertaking Agreements, the Selling Stockholders have irrevocably and unconditionally agreed to tender their combined 50.338% interest in Saeta in the Tender Offer.
The Company's acceptance of the shares of Saeta tendered in the Tender Offer is conditioned upon the Company obtaining compulsory authorization required from the European Commission and Cobra and GIP irrevocably accepting the Tender Offer in respect of their shares of Saeta representing no less than 48.222% of Saeta's voting share capital.
The aggregate value of the shares of Saeta held by the Selling Stockholders is approximately $600 million.  If the Company successfully acquires all of the remaining Saeta shares in the Tender Offer, the aggregate purchase price (including the value of the Selling Stockholders shares) will be approximately $1.2 billion. Assuming a $1.2 billion acquisition price, the Company intends to finance the acquisition with a $400 million equity issuance of the Company's Class A common stock and the remaining $800 million will be financed from available liquidity, which the Company expects to refinance with a combination of non-recourse financings of the Company's currently unencumbered wind and solar assets and certain cash released from Saeta's assets.
In connection with the launch of the Tender Offer, the Company is required to post a bank guarantee (the "Bank Guarantee") with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (the "CNMV") in Spain for the maximum amount payable in the Tender Offer, which amount will be approximately $1.2 billion. In connection with posting this bank guarantee, the Company expects to enter into a Letter of Credit Facility with a syndicate of banks that will govern the Company's obligations to reimburse such banks upon any drawing under the Bank Guarantee. It is expected that this Letter of Credit Facility will be entered into prior to the launch of the Tender Offer and is expected to have customary fees and expenses, representations and warranties, covenants and event of default provisions.
The foregoing description of the Irrevocable Undertaking Agreements and the Tender Offer does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Irrevocable
Undertaking Agreements attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 and incorporated herein by reference.
Backstop Agreement with Brookfield
In connection with the Tender Offer, the Company intends to finance the acquisition of Saeta shares with a $400 million equity issuance of the Company's Class A common stock (the "Equity Offering").
On February 6, 2018, the Company entered into a Support Agreement (the "Support Agreement") with Brookfield Asset Management Inc. ("Brookfield").  Pursuant to the Support Agreement, Brookfield agreed that, if requested by the Company, Brookfield would provide a back-stop to the Company for up to 100% of the Equity Offering (such agreement, the "Back-Stop") if the offering price per Class A Share of the Company 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 Company's announcement of the 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 Tender Offer and to prior effectiveness of a registration statement, if required, that the Company would file in connection with the Equity Offering and such obligation would not apply to any Equity Offering commenced prior to May 1, 2018 or after September 30, 2018.
The foregoing description of the Support Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Support Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 and incorporated herein by reference.
Upsizing of Revolving Credit Facility
On February 6, 2018, TerraForm Power Operating, LLC ("TERP Operating"), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, elected to increase the aggregate principal amount of its revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") pursuant to the Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of October 17, 2017, by and among TERP Operating, TerraForm Power, LLC, certain subsidiary guarantors of TERP Operating, and the lenders and issuing banks party thereto from time to time and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent from $450 million to $600 million (the "Revolving Loan Commitment Increase"). The Revolving Loan Commitment Increase became effective on February 6, 2018.
