 Exhibit 10.1 
 EXECUTION VERSION 
 GUARANTY 

This GUARANTY (the “Guaranty”), dated April 28, 2011, is between Total S.A., a
société anonyme organized under the laws of the Republic of France (the “Guarantor”), and SunPower Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). 

RECITALS 
 A. It is proposed that, on the date hereof, Total Gas & Power USA, SAS, a société par actions simplifiée organized under the laws of the Republic of France and an
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Guarantor (“Acquirer”), and the Company enter into that certain Tender Offer Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Acquirer and the Company (the “Tender Offer
Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Tender Offer Agreement. 
 B. It is a condition to the willingness of the Company to enter into the Tender Offer Agreement that the Guarantor guarantee to the Company the performance by the Acquirer of its obligations under the
Tender Offer Agreement. 
 C. The Guarantor owns, indirectly through one or more wholly owned subsidiaries, 100%
of the equity interest in the Acquirer and will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Acquirer’s performance of the Tender Offer Agreement. 
 AGREEMENT 
 For good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Guaranty. 
 (a) The Guarantor unconditionally guarantees
to the Company, (i) the full and prompt payment when due of all of Acquirer’s payment obligations under the Tender Offer Agreement and (ii) the full and prompt performance when due of all of the Acquirer’s representations,
warranties, covenants, duties, liabilities, obligations, and agreements (including for breach) contained in the Tender Offer Agreement (collectively, the “Obligations”); provided, that the maximum aggregate liability of the
Guarantor hereunder under the Tender Offer Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate value at the Offer Price of the maximum number of Shares which may be validly tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the
Tender Offer Agreement. 
 (b) This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment, and not of collection, and is absolute,
unconditional, continuing and irrevocable, constitutes an independent guaranty of the Obligations, and is in no way conditioned on or contingent upon (i) except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Guaranty, any attempt to enforce in whole
or in part any of the Acquirer’s Obligations to the Company, (ii) the existence or continuance of the Acquirer as a legal entity, (iii) the consolidation or merger of the Acquirer with or into any other entity, (iv) the sale,
lease or disposition by the Acquirer of all or substantially all of its assets to any other entity, 

  
 1 

 
(v) the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Acquirer, (vi) the admission by the Acquirer of its inability to pay its debts as they mature, (vii) the making by the Acquirer of a general
assignment for the benefit of, or entering into a composition or arrangement with, creditors, (viii) the adequacy of any means the Company may have of obtaining payment related to the Obligations, or (ix) the existence of any claim,
set-off or other right which the Acquirer or the Guarantor may have at any time against the Company (other than rights of the Acquirer pursuant to the Tender Offer Agreement), whether in connection with the Obligations or otherwise. If the Acquirer
fails to pay or perform any Obligations to the Company that are subject to this Guaranty as and when they are due and such failure and the consequences thereof have not been cured promptly or of a nature that cannot be cured, then, upon receipt of
written notice from the Company specifying the failure, the Guarantor shall forthwith perform, or cause to be performed, any such obligation, responsibility or undertaking as and when required pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer
Agreement, including, without limitation, all payment obligations under the Tender Offer Agreement, it being understood and agreed that in no event shall the Company have the right to proceed against the Guarantor under this Guaranty or otherwise in
respect of the Obligations unless the Acquirer has failed to cure promptly any failure by Acquirer to pay or perform any Obligations to the Company that are subject to this Guaranty as and when they are due (including the consequences thereof) or
such failure or the consequences thereof are of a nature that cannot be cured and the Company has delivered written notice to the Guarantor specifying the failure to cure or that such failure is of a nature that cannot be cured. Each failure by the
Acquirer to pay or perform any Obligations shall give rise to a separate cause of action, and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises. If any payment in respect of any Obligation, or any portion thereof, is rescinded
or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, including with respect to an insolvency of the Acquirer, the Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Obligation as if such payment had not been made. 

(c) The Company may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Guarantor, except such
notice as may be required by applicable statute that cannot be waived, without incurring responsibility to the Guarantor, and without impairing, discharging or releasing the performance of the Obligations, in whole or in part, (i) exercise or
delay or refrain from exercising any rights against the Acquirer or others (including the Guarantor) or otherwise act or delay or refrain from acting, (ii) change the time, place or manner of payment of the Obligations, or rescind, settle
waive, compromise, consolidate or otherwise amend or modify any of the terms or provisions of the Tender Offer Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof and/or any other obligations and liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred
directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any obligations and liabilities which may be due to the Company or others, and (iii) sell, exchange, release,
surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner or in any order any property pledged or mortgaged by anyone to secure or in any manner securing the Obligations hereby guaranteed. 

(d) The Company may not, without the prior written consent of the Guarantor, assign its rights and interests under this
Guaranty, in whole or in part. 
 (e) No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of the Obligations hereby
guaranteed shall affect, impair, or be a defense to this Guaranty. This is a continuing Guaranty 

  
 2 

 
for which the Guarantor receives continuing consideration and all obligations to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in
reliance hereon and this Guaranty is therefore irrevocable without the prior written consent of the Company. 

(f) All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds. The
Guarantor promises and undertakes to make all payments hereunder free and clear of any deduction, offset, defense, claim or counterclaim of any kind. 
 (g) For the avoidance of doubt, if the Acquirer fails to perform any of the Obligations required to be specifically performed by it, the Guarantor shall specifically perform or cause such Obligations to
be specifically performed, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer Agreement. 
 (h)
Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, and shall cause its Affiliates not to institute, any proceeding asserting that this Guaranty or any portion thereof is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms.

 2. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Company that:

 (a) the Guarantor is a société anonyme duly organized, validly, existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation; 
 (b) the execution,
delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty are within the power of the Guarantor and have been duly authorized by all necessary actions on the part of the Guarantor; 

(c) this Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by the Guarantor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally;

 (d) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty do not (i) violate any law, rule or
regulation of any governmental authority or (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any material lien, charge, security interest or encumbrance upon any property, asset or revenue of the Guarantor; 

(e) no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any governmental
authority or other person (including, without limitation, the shareholders of the Guarantor) is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Tender
Offer Agreement and by the Related Agreements, except such consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings that are so required and which have been obtained and are in full force and effect; 

  
 3 

 (f) the Guarantor is not in violation of any law, rule or regulation
other than those the consequences of which cannot reasonably be expected to have material adverse effect on the ability of the Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty; and 

(g) no litigation, investigation or proceeding of any court or other governmental tribunal is pending or, to the
knowledge of the Guarantor, threatened against the Guarantor which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty. 

3. Waivers. 
 (a) Guarantor, to the extent permitted under applicable law, hereby waives any right to require the Company to (i) except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Guaranty, proceed against the
Acquirer or any other guarantor of the Acquirer’s obligations under the Tender Offer Agreement, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security received from the Acquirer or any other guarantor of the Acquirer’s Obligations under the
Tender Offer Agreement, or (iii) pursue any other right or remedy in the Company’s power whatsoever. 

(b) Guarantor further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, (i) any defense resulting from the
absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution or other right or remedy of the Guarantor against the Acquirer, any other guarantor of the Obligations or any security, (ii) any setoff or counterclaim of the
Acquirer or any defense which results from any disability or other defense of the Acquirer or the cessation or stay of enforcement from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Acquirer (including, without limitation, the lack of validity or
enforceability of the Tender Offer Agreement), (iii) any right to exoneration of sureties that would otherwise be applicable, (iv) any right of subrogation or reimbursement and, if there are any other guarantors of the Obligations, any
right of contribution, and right to enforce any remedy that the Company now has or may hereafter have against the Acquirer, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter received by Company, (v) all
presentments, demands for performance, notices of non-performance, notices delivered under the Tender Offer Agreement, protests, notice of non-performance default, dishonor, and protest and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty and of the
Obligations and of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Obligations and notices of any public or private foreclosure sale, and all other notices of any kind, (vi) the benefit of any statute of limitations, (vii) any
appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium redemption or similar law now or hereafter in effect or similar rights for marshalling, and (viii) any right to be informed by the Company of the financial condition of the Acquirer or any
other guarantor of the Obligations or any change therein or any other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations. The Guarantor has the ability to and assumes the responsibility for keeping informed of the
financial condition of the Acquirer and any other guarantors of the Obligations and of other circumstances affecting such nonpayment and nonperformance risks.
