THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of the Grant Date specified above, is entered into by and between SunEdison Emerging Markets Yield, Inc., a corporation organized in the State of Delaware (the “Company”), and the Participant specified above, pursuant to the SunEdison Emerging Markets Yield, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as in effect and as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), which is administered by the board of directors of the Company; and

WHEREAS, it has been determined under the Plan that it would be in the best interests of the Company to grant the Restricted Stock provided herein to the Participant.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:

1. Incorporation By Reference; Plan Document Receipt. This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, any amendments thereto adopted at any time and from time to time unless such amendments are expressly intended not to apply to the Award provided hereunder), all of which terms and provisions are made a part of and incorporated in this Agreement as if they were each expressly set forth herein. Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as is ascribed thereto in the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a true copy of the Plan and that the Participant has read the Plan carefully and fully understands its content. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.

2. Grant of Restricted Stock Award. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, as of the Grant Date specified above, the number of shares of Restricted Stock specified above which is intended to represent     % of the economic interest in the Company (the “Percentage Interest”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in the Plan, upon the closing, and contemporaneous with, the Company’s initial public stock offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Company IPO”) the number of shares of Class C Common Stock that consist of the Restricted Stock shall be converted to Class A Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.4 of the Company’s Certificate with the intent that the Participant shall own, at the time of the Company IPO, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock that represents the Percentage Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in the Plan, the Class A Common Stock issued to the

Participant in exchange for the Class C Common Stock shall be subject to the restrictions and rights set forth herein (including but not limited to the vesting requirements); provided, that for the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding the conversion of the Class C Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock, the vesting requirements set forth in Section 3 below shall continue from the date of the original grant of the Restricted Stock. Except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement (including for the avoidance of doubt the immediately preceding sentence), no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of any shares of Restricted Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to Section 5 hereof, the Participant shall not have the rights of a stockholder in respect of the shares underlying this Award until such shares are delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 4 hereof.

3. Vesting.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 3(b) through 3(e) hereof, the Restricted Stock subject to this grant shall become unrestricted and vested as follows, provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to each such vesting date:

There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods prior to each vesting date and all vesting shall occur only on the appropriate vesting date, subject to the Participant’s continued service with the Company or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries on each applicable vesting date.

(b) Committee Discretion to Accelerate Vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting of the Restricted Stock at any time and for any reason.

(c) Change in Control. The Restricted Stock shall become fully vested upon the occurrence of a Change in Control so long as the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to such Change in Control.

(d) Death or Disability. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Restricted Stock shall become fully vested in the event of the Participant’s death or Disability.

(e) Forfeiture. Subject to the Committee’s discretion to accelerate vesting hereunder and subject to the provisions of Sections 3(c) and 3(d) above, all unvested Restricted Stock shall be immediately forfeited upon the Participant’s Termination for any reason.

2

4. Period of Restriction; Delivery of Unrestricted Shares. Prior to the Restricted Stock vesting in accordance with Section 3 above, the Restricted Stock shall bear the following legend:

“The anticipation, alienation, attachment, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge of the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) of the SunEdison Emerging Markets Yield, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan and the applicable grant agreement entered into between the registered owner and the Company, dated September     , 2014. Copies of each such document are on file at the principal office of the Company.”

When shares of Restricted Stock awarded by this Agreement become vested, the Participant shall be entitled to receive unrestricted shares, and the Participant shall be entitled to receive new stock certificates free of such legends (except any legends requiring compliance with securities laws).

5. Dividends; Rights as Stockholder. Participants holding Restricted Stock shall be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such shares. If any dividends or distributions are paid in shares, the shares shall be deposited with the Company and shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid. The Participant may exercise full voting rights with respect to the Restricted Stock granted hereunder notwithstanding the occurrence of a vesting date with respect to such Restricted Stock.

6. Non-Transferability. Other than with respect to estate planning purposes benefitting a spouse or child, the Restricted Stock, and any rights and interests with respect thereto, issued under this Agreement and the Plan shall not, prior to vesting, be sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of in any way by the Participant (or any beneficiary of the Participant), other than by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempt to sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of or hypothecate in any way any of the Restricted Stock, or the levy of any execution, attachment or similar legal process upon the Restricted Stock, contrary to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and/or the Plan shall be null and void and without legal force or effect.

7. Legend. The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section 7.

8. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.

9. Withholding of Tax. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and foreign taxes of any kind (including, but not limited to, the Participant’s FICA and SDI obligations) which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to be withheld or remitted to comply with the Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the Restricted Stock and, if the Participant fails to do so, the Company may otherwise refuse to issue or transfer any shares of Common Stock otherwise required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement. Any minimum statutorily required withholding obligation with regard to the Participant may be satisfied by reducing the amount of cash or shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant hereunder.
