THE PROGRESSIVE CORPORATION 

4.35% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2044 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness of the Issuer (hereinafter called
the “Securities”) of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an indenture dated as of September 15, 1993, as heretofore supplemented and amended (herein called the “Indenture”),
between the Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights,
obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Securities. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature
at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any) and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture
provided. This Security is one of a series designated as the “4.35% Senior Notes due 2044” of the Issuer (herein called the “Notes”) initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $350,000,000. The Issuer may, without the
consent of Holders, increase the principal amount of the Notes in the future by issuing additional Notes on the same terms and conditions and with the same CUSIP Number(s) as the Notes. 

If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date or any earlier Redemption Date falls on any date that is not a Business Day, then the
related payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, without any interest or other additional payment in respect of the delay. “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is not a day on which banking
institutions or trust companies are generally authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The City of New York. 

In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal
hereof may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture. 

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than 66-2/3% in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding (as defined in the Indenture) of all series to be affected (voting as one class), evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental

 
indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the
Holders of the Securities of each such series; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, among other things, (i) extend the final maturity of any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or any amount payable upon
redemption thereof, or change the currency of payment thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of any interest thereon, or impair or affect the rights of any Holder to institute suit for the payment thereof, without the consent of
the Holder of each Security so affected or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holder of each Security so affected. It
is also provided in the Indenture that, with respect to certain defaults or Events of Default regarding the Securities of any series, prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of such Securities, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount Outstanding of the Securities of such series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any such past default or Event of Default and its consequences. The preceding sentence shall not, however, apply to
a default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Note and any Note which may be issued in exchange or substitution herefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this Note or such other Note. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note in the manner, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed. 

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 at the office
or agency of the Issuer at the office of the Trustee in Boston, Massachusetts, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, but without the payment of any service charge. Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate
principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations. 
 The Notes are subject to redemption upon not more than 60 or less than 30
days’ notice by mail, in whole at any time or in part from time to time at the option of the Issuer on any date (a “Redemption Date”), at a redemption price equal to the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being
redeemed to the redemption date plus the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments (as defined below) of the

 
Notes to be redeemed, discounted to the redemption date, on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at rate equal to the Treasury Rate (defined below),
plus 15 basis points. 
 ‘‘Remaining Scheduled Payments’’ means, with respect to any redemption, the remaining scheduled
payments of the principal and interest, exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date, that would be due after the Redemption Date of the Notes to be redeemed assuming such Notes were not redeemed and were held until the Maturity Date. 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption, an annual rate equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the
Comparable Treasury Issue (as defined below), assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the Redemption Date. 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any redemption, the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent
Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt
securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the
Reference Treasury Dealers selected by the Issuer. 
 “Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption,
(i) the average of three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined below) obtained by the Trustee for the Redemption Date after excluding the highest and lowest of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations obtained or (ii) if the
Trustee obtains fewer than five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations obtained. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any redemption, Goldman, Sachs & Co. or any of its affiliates (so long
as it is and continues to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer) and any four other primary U.S. Government securities dealers chosen by the Issuer. If any of the foregoing ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer, the
Issuer will appoint in its place another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a primary U.S. Government securities dealer. 

 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to any redemption, the
average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by a Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New
York City time, on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date. 
 In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note
or Notes of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note at the office or agency of the Issuer at the office of the Trustee in Boston,
Massachusetts, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for an equal aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without charge except for any tax or
other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith. 
 The Issuer, the Trustee and any authorized agent of the Issuer or the Trustee
may deem and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner of this Note (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on
account of, the principal hereof and, subject to the provisions on the face hereof, interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any authorized agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by notice
to the contrary. 
 No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer in the Indenture or any indenture
supplemental thereto or in any Note, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, as such, of the Issuer or of any successor corporation, either directly
or through the Issuer or any successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived
and released by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof. 
 Terms used herein which are defined in the
Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture.

 Exhibit 10.16 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

This Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of October 2, 2013 (the “Effective
Date”), by and between Pattern Energy Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereafter the “Company”), and Esben W. Pedersen (“Executive”). 

1. Employment. During the Employment Period (as defined in Section 4 below), the Company shall employ Executive, and
Executive shall serve, as Chief Investment Officer of the Company. 
 2. Duties and Responsibilities of Executive. 

 

	 	(a)	During the Employment Period, Executive shall devote substantially all of Executive’s business time and attention to the business of the Company or its Affiliates, as applicable, will act in the best interests of
the Company and will perform with due care Executive’s duties and responsibilities. Executive’s duties will include those normally incidental to the position of Chief Investment Officer as well as such additional duties of an executive and
managerial nature, consistent with his position as may be assigned to him by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), which such duties may include, without limitation, providing
executive management services for Pattern Energy Group LP (“PEG LP”) pursuant to the Management Services Agreement by and between Company and PEG LP dated October 2, 2013, and providing services to any of the
Company’s Affiliates. Executive agrees to cooperate fully with the Board and not to engage in any activity that materially interferes with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. During the Employment Period, Executive will not
hold any type of outside employment, engage in any type of consulting or otherwise render services to or for any other person or business concern without the advance written consent of the Board; provided that Executive may manage personal
investments and engage in charitable and civic activities, as well as the activities set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, so long as such activities do not materially interfere with Executive’s obligations to the Company or any of its Affiliates, as
applicable. 

  

	 	(b)	Executive represents and covenants that, in the course of his employment herein, he shall not use or disclose any confidential or protected information belonging to any of Executive’s previous employers unless
specifically allowed to do so under a written agreement. The Company represents and covenants that, in the course of performing his duties hereunder, Executive shall not be required to disclose any confidential or protected information belonging to
any of Executive’s previous employers. 

 3. Compensation. Any salary, bonus and other compensation payments hereunder
shall be subject to all applicable payroll and other taxes, deductions and withholdings. 
  

	 	(a)	During the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to Executive a base annualized salary of $231,275 (the “Base Salary”) in consideration for Executive’s services under this Agreement,
payable on a not less than monthly basis. The Base Salary shall be subject to modification from time to time as determined by the Company in its discretion. 

  

	 	(b)	Executive shall be eligible for discretionary bonus compensation with respect to each year that he is employed by the Company (the “Annual Bonus”). The Annual Bonus shall be determined under
guidelines provided in the Pattern Incentive Bonus Plan. For 2013, the Annual Bonus shall not be pro-rated and shall take into account the Executive’s prior service with PEG LP and its Affiliates. The Annual Bonus, if any, will be paid as soon
as administratively feasible after the Board certifies that the applicable performance targets have been achieved but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year upon which the payment of the bonus is based.

 4. Term of Employment. The initial term of this Agreement shall be for the period beginning on the
Effective Date and ending at midnight Eastern Time on the first anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”). On the first anniversary of the Effective Date and on each subsequent anniversary of the Effective Date,
this Agreement shall automatically renew and extend for a period of 12 months (each such 12-month period being a “Renewal Term”) unless written notice of non-renewal is delivered from either party to the other not less than
sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the then-existing Initial Term or Renewal Term. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement may be terminated at any time in
accordance with Section 6. The period from the Effective Date through the expiration of this Agreement or, if sooner, the termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement, regardless of the time or reason for such termination,
shall be referred to herein as the “Employment Period.” 
 5. Benefits. Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits during the Employment Period: 
  

	 	(a)	Benefits. Executive shall be invited to participate in the same benefit plans and fringe benefit policies in which other similarly situated Company employees are eligible to participate. All such participation
shall be subject to applicable eligibility requirements and the terms and conditions of all plans and policies. 

  

	 	(b)	Business Expenses. Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for business expenses under the same policies that apply to other similarly situation Company employees as determined by the Company from time to
time. 

  
 2 

 6. Termination of Employment. 

 

	 	(a)	Company’s Right to Terminate Executive’s Employment for Cause. The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment with the Company at any time for “Cause.” For purposes
of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean: 

  

	 	(i)	any material breach of this Agreement by Executive, which such material breach remains uncorrected for thirty (30) days after the Company provides Executive written notice of its belief that this Section 6(a) is
being or has been violated by Executive; 

  

	 	(ii)	Executive’s being the subject of any final, non-appealable order, judicial or administrative, obtained or issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission for any securities violation involving fraud, including
without limitation any order in which findings of facts or any legal conclusions establishing liability are neither admitted nor denied; conviction of Executive, or plea of nolo contendere by Executive, to any felony or crime involving moral
turpitude; or 

  

	 	(iii)	Executive’s material mismanagement in providing material services to the Company or its Affiliates, which such mismanagement is not cured within thirty (30) days after the Company provides Executive written
notice of its belief that this Section 6(a)(iii) is being or has been violated. 

  

	 	(b)	Company’s Right to Terminate for Convenience. 

 Upon thirty (30) days
advance written notice, the Company shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment for convenience. 
  

	 	(c)	Executive’s Right to Terminate for Good Reason. Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment with the Company at any time for “Good Reason.” For purposes of this Agreement,
“Good Reason” shall mean: 

  

	 	(i)	a material diminution in Executive’s authority, title or position, duties, or responsibilities; 

  

	 	(ii)	a material breach by the Company of its obligations to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or a material breach by the Company of its Bylaws or Certificate of Incorporation; 

 

	 	(iii)	the involuntary relocation of the geographic location of Executive’s principal place of employment by more than 40 miles from the location of Executive’s principal place of employment as of the Effective Date;
or 

  

	 	(iv)	a diminution in the Executive’s Base Salary. 

  
 3 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(c) or any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, any assertion of Executive of a termination for Good Reason shall not be effective unless all of the following conditions are satisfied: (A) Executive must provide written notice to the Company of the condition described in Sections
6(c)(i), 6(c)(ii), 6(c)(iii) or 6(c)(iv) that gives rise to Executive’s belief that Good Reason for termination exists within sixty (60) days after Executive first becomes aware of the initial existence of the condition; (B) the
condition specified in such notice must remain uncorrected for thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice by the Company; and (C) the date of Executive’s termination of employment must occur within ninety-one (91) days after
Executive first becomes aware of the initial existence of the condition specified in such notice. 
  

	 	(d)	Death or Disability. Upon the death or Disability of Executive, Executive’s employment with Company shall terminate with no further obligation under this Agreement of either party, or their successors in
interest; provided that the Company shall pay to the estate of Executive any outstanding amounts due under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Disability” shall exist if Executive is unable to perform
the essential functions of his position, with reasonable accommodation, due to physical or mental illness or injury which continues for a period in excess of four (4) consecutive months. The determination of a Disability will be made by the
Company; provided that if the Executive disputes the determination, the matter shall be submitted to a qualified doctor mutually acceptable to the Company and the Executive for final determination, and the Executive shall submit to such
examinations as the doctor shall reasonably request in order to enable the doctor to make the determination. If requested by the Company, Executive shall submit to a mental or physical examination to be performed by an independent physician selected
by the Company to assist the Company in making such determination. 

  

	 	(e)	Executive’s Right to Terminate for Convenience. Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment with the Company for convenience at any time upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to
the Company. 

  

	 	(f)	Effect of Termination. 

  

	 	(i)	 If Executive’s employment terminates pursuant to Sections 6(b) or 6(c) above, and Executive executes a Release Agreement in a form satisfactory
to the Company, which such form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A (the “Release”), and the Release becomes irrevocable within 53 days of the date Executive’s employment is terminated, the Company
shall make a payment to Executive equal to 1.0 times the sum of the Executive’s Base Salary and 1.8 times the Executive’s Average Bonus Amount (the “Severance Payment”). For purposes of the foregoing,
“Average Bonus Amount” means the average of the most recent two Annual Bonus amounts paid to the Executive (including such amounts paid by PEG LP in relation to the Executive’s service as an employee of

  
 4 

	 	
PEG LP prior to the Effective Date). The Severance Payment shall be paid, in a lump sum within twenty (20) days after the Release becomes irrevocable; provided, however, that
(i) if the Executive’s termination of employment occurs during the last 73 days of any calendar year, the Severance Payment will in all events be paid in the following calendar year, and (ii) if Severance Payment would be subject to
additional taxes and interest under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code because the timing of such payment is not delayed as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, then such payment shall be paid on the date
that is six months after the date of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company (or if such payment date does not fall on a business day of Company, the next following business day of Company), or such earlier date upon which such
payment can be paid under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code without being subject to such additional taxes and interest. Each payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a separate payment for purposes of
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. If Executive is eligible for continuation insurance coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) and has timely elected such coverage,
then the Company shall reimburse Executive for the monthly premium he pays for such continuation coverage for the first twelve (12) months following a termination of employment pursuant to Sections 6(b), 6(c), 6(d)(in case of Disability) above;
provided that in order to receive such reimbursement, Executive must not be eligible to participate in the group health plan of any other employer. 

  

	 	(ii)	 If Executive’s employment ceases pursuant to the expiration of the Initial Term or then-applicable Renewal Term as a result of the Company
choosing to not renew, and Executive executes the Release and the Release becomes irrevocable within 53 days of the date Executive’s employment is terminated, the Company shall provide Executive a payment equal to 50% of the Severance Payment
(the “Reduced Severance Payment”) in a lump sum within twenty (20) days after the Release becomes irrevocable; provided, however, that (i) if the Executive’s termination of employment occurs during the
last 73 days of any calendar year, the Reduced Severance Payment will in all events be paid in the following calendar year, and (ii) if the Reduced Severance Payment would be subject to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A of
the Internal Revenue Code because the timing of such payment is not delayed as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, then such payment shall be paid on the date that is six months after the date of Executive’s
termination of employment with the Company (or if such payment date does not fall on a 

  
 5 

	 	
business day of Company, the next following business day of Company), or such earlier date upon which such payment can be paid under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code without being
subject to such additional taxes and interest. Each payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. If Executive is eligible for continuation insurance
coverage under the COBRA and has timely elected such coverage, then the Company shall reimburse Executive for the monthly premium he pays for such continuation coverage for the first six (6) months following the end of employment pursuant to
the expiration of the Initial Term or then-applicable Renewal Term as a result of the Company choosing not to renew; provided that in order to receive such reimbursement, Executive must not be eligible to participate in the group health plan
of any other employer. 

  

	 	(iii)	Upon the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, all earned, unpaid Base Salary and accrued, unused paid time off shall be paid to Executive no later than within 72 hours of his last day of employment
or such earlier time as may be required by law. With the exception of any payments to which Executive may be entitled, including but not limited to expense reimbursements and indemnification or other payment rights under any ancillary agreement
between Company and Executive, and that are payable after the termination of this Agreement, the Company shall have no further obligation under this Agreement to make payments to Executive. 

(g) Termination of Employment. All references in this Agreement to Executive’s termination of employment shall mean and be deemed
to occur only if and when a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and the applicable regulations thereunder has occurred. 

7. Conflicts of Interest. Executive agrees that he shall promptly disclose to the Board any conflict of interest
involving Executive upon Executive becoming aware of such conflict. 
 8. Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges and
agrees that, in the course of his employment with the Company, he will be provided with, and have access to, valuable Confidential Information (as defined below) of the Company, its Affiliates and of third parties who have supplied such information
to the Company or its Affiliates, as applicable. In consideration of Executive’s receipt and access to such Confidential Information and in exchange for other valuable consideration provided hereunder, Executive agrees to comply with this
Section 8. 
  

	 	(a)	 Executive covenants and agrees, both during the term of the Employment Period and thereafter, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement or by
directive of the Board, he shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person and shall not use any Confidential Information 

  
 6 

	 	
except for the benefit of the Company or any of its Affiliates. He shall take all reasonable precautions to protect the physical security of all documents and other material containing
Confidential Information (regardless of the medium on which the Confidential Information is stored). This covenant shall apply to all Confidential Information, whether now known or later to become known to Executive during the Employment Period.

  

	 	(b)	Executive covenants and agrees, both during the term of the Employment Period and thereafter, that he shall not disparage the Company or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective wind farms, projects, services,
directors, officers, shareholders, attorneys or employees, or any person or entity acting by, through, under or in concert with any of them, in any written or oral statement. Nothing in this Section 8(b) shall prohibit him from testifying
truthfully in any court or arbitral proceeding, government investigation, or in response to any lawfully issued subpoena. 

  

	 	(c)	Executive covenants and agrees that for a period of 24 months following termination for any reason he will not either directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any employees of the Company or its
Affiliates to leave their employment, or take away such employees, or attempt to solicit, induce, recruit, encourage or take away employees of the Company or its Affiliates for the benefit of the Executive or the benefit of any third party.

  

	 	(d)	Notwithstanding Section 8(a), Executive may make the following disclosures and uses of Confidential Information: 

  

	 	(i)	disclosures to partners, members, executives, officers, managers, directors, attorneys, agents, consultants, or employees of the Company or its Affiliates or their lenders or investors or potential lenders or investors
who have a need to know the information in connection with the business of the Company or its Affiliates; 

  

	 	(ii)	disclosures to customers and suppliers when, in the reasonable and good faith belief of Executive, such disclosure is in connection with Executive’s performance of his services under this Agreement and is in the
best interests of the Company; 

  

	 	(iii)	disclosures and uses that are approved by the Board; 

  

	 	(iv)	disclosures to a Person that has been retained by the Company to provide services to the Company, and who have a need to know the information in connection with the business of the Company or its Affiliates;

  

	 	(v)	disclosures for the purpose of complying with any applicable laws or regulatory requirements; 

  
 7 

	 	(vi)	disclosures for the purpose of complying with judicial or administrative rules or rules of professional conduct that are binding on Executive; or 

 

	 	(vii)	disclosures that Executive is legally compelled to make by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand, order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or similar process, or
otherwise by law; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, Executive shall, to the extent legally permissible:

responsibility, except if Executive’s reasonable interests are adverse to the Company or its Affiliate(s), as applicable, in such claim or action. The Company agrees to pay or reimburse Executive for all of Executive’s reasonable travel
and other direct expenses incurred, or to be reasonably incurred, to comply with Executive’s obligations under this Section 10, provided that Executive provides reasonable documentation of same no later than thirty (30) days after
incurring such expenses. Reimbursement of expenses under this Section 10 shall be made no later than thirty (30) days after Executive submits all supporting documentation. Executive is not permitted to receive a payment or benefit in lieu

11. Arbitration 
  

	 	(a)	Subject to Section 11(b), any dispute, controversy or claim between Executive and the Company arising out of or relating to this Agreement or Executive’s employment with the Company will be finally settled by
arbitration in the city in which Executive is employed before, and in accordance with the rules for the resolution of employment disputes then in effect of, the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration award
shall be final and binding on both parties. 

  

	 	(b)	Any arbitration conducted under this Section 11 shall be heard by a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) selected in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the AAA. The disputing
party desiring to initiate arbitration hereunder in connection with any dispute shall provide written notice to the other disputing party (an “Arbitration Notice”), which notice shall set forth the demand for arbitration, and
include a statement of the matter underlying the dispute. 

  

	 	(c)	 The Arbitrator shall expeditiously (and, if possible, within ninety (90) days after selection) hear and decide all matters concerning the
dispute. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, the Arbitrator shall have the power to (i) gather such materials, information, testimony and evidence as he deems relevant to the dispute before him (and each party will
provide such materials, information, testimony and evidence requested by the Arbitrator, except to the extent any information so requested is proprietary, subject to a third-party confidentiality restriction, or to an attorney-client or other
privilege), and (ii) grant injunctive relief and enforce specific performance. If he deems necessary, the Arbitrator may propose to the disputing parties that one or more other experts be retained to assist it in resolving the dispute. The
retention of such other experts shall require the unanimous consent of the disputing parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each disputing party, the Arbitrator, and any proposed expert shall disclose to the other disputing party any
business, personal or other relationship or affiliation that may exist between such 

  
 10 

	 	
disputing party (or the Arbitrator) and such proposed expert; and any disputing party may disapprove of such proposed expert on the basis of such relationship or affiliation. The decision of the
Arbitrator (which shall be rendered in writing) shall be final, non-appealable and binding upon the disputing parties and the parties agree that judgment upon the award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction; provided that the
parties agree that the Arbitrator and any court enforcing the award of the Arbitrator shall not have the right or authority to award punitive or exemplary damages to any disputing party. 

 

	 	(d)	Each side shall share equally the cost of the arbitration and bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with any arbitration, and the Arbitrator shall not have the power to award fees or
expenses to either party notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Employment Arbitration Rules of the AAA. 

  

	 	(e)	Notwithstanding Section 11(a), an application for emergency or temporary injunctive relief by either party shall not be subject to arbitration under this Section 11; provided, however, that the remainder of any
such dispute (beyond the application for emergency or temporary injunctive relief) shall be subject to arbitration under this Section 11. 

  

	 	(F)	BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND ENTERING INTO THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THEY ARE KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVING ANY RIGHTS TO A
JURY TRIAL. 

  

	 	(g)	Nothing in this Section 11 shall prohibit a party to this Agreement from (i) instituting litigation to enforce any arbitration award, or (ii) joining another party to this Agreement in a litigation initiated
by a Person which is not a party to this Agreement. 

 12. Withholdings; Right of Offset. The Company may
withhold and deduct from any payments made or to be made pursuant to this Agreement (a) all federal, state, local and other taxes as may be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling or (b) any deductions consented
to in writing by Executive. 
 13. Title and Headings; Construction. Titles and headings to Sections hereof are for the
purpose of reference only and shall in no way limit, define or otherwise affect the provisions hereof. Any and all exhibits or attachments referred to in this Agreement are, by such reference, incorporated herein and made a part hereof for all
purposes. The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other compounds of the word “here” shall refer to the entire Agreement and not to any particular provision hereof. 

14. Applicable Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall in all respects be governed and construed according
to the laws of the State of California. With respect to any 

  
 11 

 
claim or dispute related to or arising under this Agreement, the parties hereby consent to the arbitration provisions of Section 11 above and recognize and agree that should any resort to a court
be necessary and permitted under this Agreement, then they consent to the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of the state and federal courts located in San Francisco, California.

matters covered herein; moreover, this Agreement supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the parties hereto concerning the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended only by a
written instrument executed by both parties hereto. 
 16. Waiver of Breach. Any waiver of this Agreement must be
executed by the party to be bound by such waiver. No waiver by either party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other party, or of compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other
party, will operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by such other party or any similar or dissimilar provision or condition at the same or any subsequent time. The failure of either party hereto to take any action by reason of
any breach will not deprive such party of the right to take action at any time while such breach continues. 
 17.
Assignment. This Agreement is personal to Executive, and neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder shall be assignable or otherwise transferred by Executive. The Company may assign this Agreement to any of

contract or otherwise) of a person or entity. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, Control shall be deemed to exist when a person or entity possesses, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries (a) in the case of a

RELEASE AGREEMENT 
 This
Release Agreement (this “Agreement”) constitutes the release referred to in that certain Employment Agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) dated as of October 2, 2013, by and between Esben W.

its Affiliates (as defined in the Employment Agreement) and subsidiaries, the past, present and future stockholders, members, partners, directors, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, heirs, representatives, successors and assigns of the
foregoing, in their personal and representative capacities (collectively, the “Company Parties”) from liability for, and hereby waives, any and all claims, damages, or causes of action of any kind related to Executive’s
employment with any Company Party, the termination of such employment, and any other acts or omissions related to any matter on or prior to the date of the execution of this Agreement including without limitation any alleged violation through the

payments under the Employment Agreement, if such payments are payable after the date of this Agreement, (c) any claim of Executive to vested benefits under an employee benefit plan, (d) any rights or health benefits of Executive under
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 or (e) any rights under the Limited Company Agreement of Pattern Energy Holdings LP. This Agreement is not intended to indicate that any such claims exist or that, if they do exist, they

regardless of whether they actually exist, are 

  
 EXHIBIT A 

Page 1 

 
expressly settled, compromised and waived. By signing this Agreement, Executive is bound by this Agreement. Anyone who succeeds to rights and responsibilities, including but not limited to
successors by merger, heirs or the executor of Executive’s estate, is bound by this Agreement. This release also applies to any claims brought by any person or agency or class action under which the Executive may have a right or benefit.
Notwithstanding the release of liability contained herein, nothing in this Agreement prevents Executive from filing any non-legally waivable claim (including a challenge to the validity of this Agreement) with the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission (“EEOC”) or comparable state or local agency or participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC or comparable state or local agency; however, Executive understands and agrees that Executive
is waiving any and all rights to recover any monetary or personal relief or recovery as a result of such EEOC or comparable state or local agency proceeding or subsequent legal actions. THIS RELEASE INCLUDES MATTERS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE SOLE OR
PARTIAL NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER GROSS OR SIMPLE) OR OTHER FAULT, INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OF ANY OF THE COMPANY PARTIES. 

(b) Executive agrees not to bring or join any lawsuit against any of the Company Parties in any court relating to any of the
Released Claims. Executive represents that Executive has not brought or joined any lawsuit or filed any charge or claim against any of the Company Parties in any court or before any government agency and has made no assignment of any rights
Executive has asserted or may have against any of the Company Parties to any person or entity, in each case, with respect to any Released Claims. 

(c) By executing and delivering this Agreement, Executive acknowledges that: 

 

	 	(i)	He has carefully read this Agreement; 

  

	 	(ii)	He has had at least [twenty-one (21)] [forty-five (45)] days to consider this Agreement before the execution and delivery hereof to the Company [Add if 45 days applies: , and he acknowledges that attached to
this Agreement are (1) a list of the positions and ages of those employees selected for termination (or participation in the exit incentive or other employment termination program); (2) a list of the ages of those employees not selected
for termination (or participation in such program); and (3) information about the unit affected by the employment termination program of which his termination was a part, including any eligibility factors for such program and any time limits
applicable to such program]; 

  

	 	(iii)	He has been and hereby is advised in writing that he may, at his option, discuss this Agreement with an attorney of his choice and that he has had adequate opportunity to do so; 

 

	 	(iv)	 He fully understands the final and binding effect of this Agreement; the only promises made to him to sign this Agreement are those

  
 EXHIBIT A 

Page 2 

	 	
stated in the Employment Agreement and herein; and he is signing this Agreement voluntarily and of his own free will, and that he understands and agrees to each of the terms of this Agreement;
and 

  

	 	(v)	With the exception of any sums that he may be owed pursuant to the Employment Agreement that are not payable until after the date that he has executed this Agreement, Executive has been paid all wages and other
compensation to which he is entitled from all Company Parties and received all leaves (paid and unpaid) to which he was entitled during the Employment Period (as defined in the Employment Agreement). 

(d) Executive acknowledges and agrees that he is aware of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as
follows; 
 A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time
of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor. 
 With
full awareness and understanding of the above provisions, Executive hereby waives any and all right he may have under Section 1542, as well as under any other statutes or common law principles of similar effect. Executive intends to, and hereby
does, release the Released Parties from claims which he does not presently know or suspect to exist. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding the initial effectiveness of this Agreement, Executive may revoke the delivery (and therefore the effectiveness) of this Agreement within the seven-day period beginning on the date Executive delivers this Agreement to the Company
(such seven day period being referred to herein as the “Release Revocation Period”). To be effective, such revocation must be in writing signed by Executive and must be delivered to the Chairman of the Board of Directors of
Pattern Energy Group Inc. before 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on the last day of the Release Revocation Period. If an effective revocation is delivered in the foregoing manner and timeframe, this Agreement shall be of no force or effect and shall be
null and void ab initio. No consideration shall be paid if this Agreement is revoked by Executive in the foregoing manner. 

Executed on this      day of             ,
