Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On May 17, 2016, TerraForm Global, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter from a Director of Nasdaq Listing Qualifications. The notification letter stated that because the Company has not yet filed its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 (the “1Q2016 10-Q”), and because it remains delinquent in filing its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the “2015 10-K”), the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires timely filing of periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The notification letter stated that the Company has until May 31, 2016 to submit a plan to Nasdaq as to how it plans to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements. The Company intends to submit a compliance plan on or prior to that date. If the Nasdaq staff accept the Company’s plan, they can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the 2015 10-K (the initial delinquent filing), or until September 26, 2016, to regain compliance. The Company may regain compliance at any time during the extension period upon filing with the SEC the 2015 10-K and the 1Q2016 10-Q, as well as all subsequent required periodic financial reports that are due within that period. If the staff does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. The Nasdaq notification letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On May 18, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing the receipt of the notification letter. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the press release is deemed to be “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information and Exhibit be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
