Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including the timing of the completion of the acquisition, and typically can be identified by the use of words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “forecast,” “intend,” “project,” “target,” “plan,” “believe” and similar terms and expressions. Certain matters discussed in this presentation and conference call are forward-looking statements, including that SunEdison expects total energy systems (solar and wind) completed to be between 2,100 MW and 2,300 MW in 2015, between 2,800 MW and 3,000 MW in 2016 and between 3,800 MW and 4,000 MW in 2017. TerraForm expects dividend per share to grow at a 24% CAGR growth rate. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation represent the SunEdison and TerraForm’s judgment as of the date of this presentation and are based on current expectations and assumptions. Although SunEdison and TerraForm believe that their expectations and assumptions are reasonable, they can give no assurance that these expectations and assumptions will prove to have been correct, and actual results may vary materially. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements include, among others: the failure of counterparties to fulfill their obligations under off-take agreements; price fluctuations, termination provisions and buyout provisions in offtake agreements; our ability to utilize our deferred tax assets or other tax assets or benefits; changes to the accounting treatment of our transactions or the impact of accounting changes and pronouncements; delays or unexpected costs during the completion of projects under construction; TerraForm Power’s ability to successfully identify, evaluate and consummate acquisitions from SunEdison, Inc. or third parties, including the acquisition of the wind generating projects from Sellers; SunEdison and TerrForm’s ability to complete the First Wind Acquisition and achieve the expected benefits of that transaction as well as the benefits from existing joint ventures; to government regulation; operating and financial restrictions under agreements governing indebtedness; SunEdison and TerraForm’s ability to borrow additional funds and access capital markets; SunEdison’s ability to achieve some or all of the expected benefits of announced public equity offerings; SunEdison and TerraForm’s ability to compete against traditional and renewable energy companies; and hazards customary to the power production industry and power generation operations, such as unusual weather conditions and outages. Furthermore, any dividends are subject to available capital, market conditions and compliance with associated laws and regulations. SunEdison and TerraForm undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The foregoing review of factors that could cause SunEdison and TerraForm’s actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements included in this report should be considered in connection with information regarding risks and uncertainties that may affect SunEdison and TerraForm’s future results included in SunEdison and TerraForm’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov.
