  This Class A Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of October 8, 2019, by and between
    TerraForm Power, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and BBHC Orion Holdco L.P., an Ontario corporation (the “Investor”). On the terms set forth in this
    Agreement, the Company desires to sell to the Investor, and the Investor desires to purchase from the Company, shares of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). In
    consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

   

  

  SECTION 1          

      

      

      Purchase and Sale of Shares

   

      

  1.1          Sale of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company will
      issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor will purchase from the Company, on the Closing Date (as defined below), for a total purchase price of $49,999,989.78 (the “Purchase Price”), 2,981,514 shares of
      Common Stock (the “Shares”).

   

    

  1.2          Closing. The purchase and sale of the Shares shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures (the “Closing”)

      at such time as all conditions set forth in Section 4 and Section 5 have been fulfilled or waived in writing by the Investor and the Company, as applicable, or at such other time as agreed by both parties (any such time, the “Closing Date”). At the Closing, the Company will cause the transfer agent and registrar for Common Stock to reflect the issuance of the Shares to the Investor and, concurrently, the Investor shall pay the Purchase
      Price by wire transfer in accordance with the Company’s instructions.

   

    

  SECTION 2          

      

      

      Representations and Warranties of the Company

   

    

  The Company hereby represents and warrants the following as of the Closing Date:

   

  

  2.1          Organization and Good Standing and Qualifications. The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with requisite power and authority to own or
      lease its properties and conduct its business as now being conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned
      or leased by it makes such qualification necessary, other than those in which the failure so to qualify or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, “Material
        Adverse Effect” shall mean any event or condition that would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, properties, or financial condition of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, taken as a
      whole, or adversely affect in any material respect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations; provided, that none of the following shall constitute a “Material Adverse Effect”: the effects of conditions or events that are
      generally applicable to the capital, financial, banking or currency markets and the renewable energy industry, and changes in the market price of Common Stock.

  
    
      

  

  
  2.2          Authorization. (i) The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this
      Agreement; (ii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the issuance, sale and delivery of the Shares have been duly authorized by all
      necessary corporate action and no further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors or its stockholders is required; and (iii) the Agreement has been duly executed and delivered and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of
      the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, securities, insolvency, or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of,
      creditors’ rights and remedies, or indemnification or by other equitable principles of general application.

   

    

  2.3          Valid Issuance of Shares. When the Shares are issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the
      consideration expressed herein, the Shares will be duly and validly issued and outstanding, fully paid, and nonassessable, and will be free of all liens and restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer under applicable state and
      federal securities laws and the Investor shall be entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of shares of Common Stock.

   

    

  2.4          No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
      contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not (i) contravene or conflict with the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, (ii) contravene or conflict with or constitute a material default under any law binding upon or applicable
      to the Company or (iii) contravene or conflict with or constitute a material default under any material agreement or judgment binding upon or applicable to the Company.

   

    

  2.5          Consents. Except for the consents that have been obtained on or prior to the Closing (including applicable regulatory approvals, if any) or filings required by the federal securities laws or
      stock exchange rules, no consent, approval, license, order, authorization, registration, declaration or filing with or of any governmental entity or other person is required to be done or obtained by the Company in connection with (i) the execution
      and delivery by the Company of this Agreement, (ii) the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement or (iii) the consummation by the Company of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

   

    

  2.6          Compliance. The Company is not, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herewith will not cause the Company to be (i) in violation
      or default of any provision of any instrument, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, contract, (ii) in violation of any provision of any judgment, decree, order or obligation to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are
      bound, or (iii) in violation of any federal, state or, to its knowledge, local statute, rule or governmental regulation, in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

   

      

  2.7          Capitalization. As of October 2, 2019 (the “Reference Date”), a total of 209,154,985 shares of
      Common Stock were issued and outstanding, increased thereafter solely as set forth in the next sentence. Other than in the ordinary course of business, the Company has not issued any capital stock since the Reference Date other than pursuant to
      (i) employee benefit plans, (ii) outstanding warrants or options and (iii) an underwritten public offering of Common Stock, as described in a prospectus supplement, dated October 3, 2019, relating to a prospectus of the Company, dated October 3, 2019
      (the “October 2019 Public Offering”). The outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, were not issued in violation of any
      preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities.

   

    

  
    2

    
      

  

  2.8          Exemption from Registration, Valid Issuance. Subject to, and in reliance on, the representations, warranties and covenants made herein by the Investor, the issuance
      and sale of the Shares in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement may occur without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the Section
      4(a)(2) thereof. The sale and issuance of the Shares pursuant to, and the Company’s performance of its obligations under, this Agreement will not (i) result in the creation or imposition of any liens, charges, claims or other encumbrances upon the
      Shares or any of the assets of the Company, or (ii) entitle the holders of any outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company to preemptive or other rights to subscribe to or acquire the Shares or other securities of the Company.

   

    

  2.9          Transfer Taxes. All stock transfer or other taxes (other than income taxes) which are required to be paid in connection with the sale
      and transfer of the Shares to be sold to Investor hereunder will be, or will have been, fully paid or provided for by the Company and all laws imposing such taxes will be or will have been fully complied with.

   

    

  2.10          Investment Company. The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Shares, will not be an “investment
      company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

   

    

  2.11          Brokers. No brokers, finders or financial advisory fees or commissions will be payable by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

   

    

  2.12          Registration Rights. The Company acknowledges and agrees that all Shares issued to
      the Investor pursuant to this Agreement shall be “Registrable Shares” as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 16, 2017, as subsequently amended and/or supplemented, among the Company, the Investor and Orion US Holdings, L.P.

   

    

  SECTION 3          

      

      

      Representations and Warranties of the Investor

   

    

  The Investor hereby represents and warrants the following as of the Execution Date:

   

    

  3.1          Experience. The Investor is experienced in evaluating companies such as the Company, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the
      Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Investor’s prospective investment in the Company, and has the ability to bear the economic risks of the investment.

   

    

  3.2          Investment. The Investor is acquiring the Shares for investment for its own account and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution
      thereof. The Investor understands that the Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the
      bona fide nature of the investment intent as expressed herein. The Investor further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to any third person with
      respect to any of the Shares.

   

    

  3.3          Rule 144. The Investor acknowledges that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or
      an exemption from such registration is available. The Investor is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which permit limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain
      conditions. In connection therewith, the Investor acknowledges that the Company will make a notation on its stock books regarding the restrictions on transfers set forth in this Section 3, and will transfer the Shares on the books of the Company only
      to the extent not inconsistent herewith and therewith.

  
    3

    
      

  

  3.4          Access to Information. The Investor has received and reviewed information about the Company and has had an opportunity to discuss the
      Company’s business, management and financial affairs with its management, and to review the Company’s facilities. The Investor has had a full opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company, or any person or persons acting on
      behalf of the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of an investment in the Shares. The Investor is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any person, except for the statements,
      representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.

   

    

  3.5          Authorization. This Agreement when executed and delivered by the Investor will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the
      Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to: (i) judicial principles respecting election of remedies or limiting the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, and other equitable remedies; and (ii) bankruptcy,
      insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect generally relating to or affecting creditors’ rights.

   

    

  3.6          Investor Status. The Investor acknowledges that it is an institutional “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act, and the Investor shall submit to the
      Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Company.

   

    

  3.7          No Inducement. The Investor was not induced to participate in the offer and sale of the Shares by the filing of any registration statement in connection with any public offering of the Company’s
      securities, and the Investor’s decision to purchase the Shares hereunder was not influenced by the information contained in any such registration statement.

   

    

  3.8          No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of this Agreement do not
      and will not (i) contravene or conflict with its organizational documents, (ii) contravene or conflict with or constitute a default under any material provision of any law binding upon or applicable to the Investor or (iii) contravene or conflict
      with or constitute a default under any material contract or other material agreement or judgment, order, writ, injunction, citation, award or decree of any nature binding upon or applicable to the Investor.

   

      

   
  3.9          Consent. Except for the consents that have been obtained on or prior to the Closing (including applicable regulatory approvals, if any) no consent, approval, license,
      order, authorization, registration, declaration or filing with or of any governmental entity or other person is required to be done or obtained by the Investor in connection with (i) the execution and delivery by the Investor of this Agreement,
      (ii) the performance by the Investor of its obligations under this Agreement or (iii) the consummation by the Investor of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

      Agreement, (ii) cause any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be rescinded following consummation or (iii) have the effect of making illegal the purchase of, or payment for, any of the Shares by the Investor.

  “THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED OR CONSTITUTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN ISSUED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) AND MAY NOT
    BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT UNLESS EITHER (i) THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, TO THE EFFECT THAT
    REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DISPOSITION OR (ii) THE SALE OF SUCH SECURITIES IS MADE PURSUANT TO SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RULE 144.”

   

  

  The legend set forth in this Section 6.1 and the related notation in the Company’s stock books shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate

    (ii) the Shares are sold or transferred in compliance with to Rule 144 and the Company has received such documents and other information as it shall have reasonably requested to demonstrate compliance of such transfer or sale with Rule 144, or (iii)
    the Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144. Following Rule 144 becoming available for the resale of Shares, without the
