TerraForm Power Sets July 29, 2020 for Stockholder Meeting Vote on Brookfield Renewable Merger Agreement

NEW YORK, NY, June 25, 2020 - TerraForm Power, Inc. (Nasdaq: TERP) (“TerraForm Power”) today announced that it has established a record date of June 26, 2020 and a stockholder meeting date of July 29, 2020, for a meeting of its stockholders to, among other things, vote to approve proposals related to the merger agreement between TerraForm Power and Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (“Brookfield Renewable”) (the “Merger Agreement”) that was previously announced on March 16, 2020.

The stockholder meeting to take place on July 29, 2020 at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, will be held virtually via webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TERP2020.

Terraform Power stockholders as of the close of business on the record date of June 26, 2020, will be entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the stockholder meeting. Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Transactions”), each share of Class A common stock of TerraForm Power will be converted into the right to receive, at the stockholder’s election, either 0.381 of a unit of Brookfield Renewable or 0.381 of a share of Brookfield Renewable Corporation (“BEPC”), in each case, subject to adjustment for the special distribution of class A exchangeable shares of BEPC to holders of units of Brookfield Renewable. The Special Committee of the Board of Directors of TerraForm Power recommends that stockholders vote in favor of the Transactions.

TerraForm Power expects the Transactions to close in the third quarter of 2020, subject to Terraform Power stockholder approval, receipt of the required regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions.  As of the date of this press release the conditions related to expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and clearance from the Canadian Competition Bureau have been satisfied.
