In appreciation of your great efforts to support the Company, except in case you voluntarily resign from SunEdison, do not accept an offer of employment by the Company or one of its affiliates, voluntarily resign from the Company or its relevant affiliate after you become its employee, or are dismissed for Cause (as defined in TerraForm Power’s Amended and Restated 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan), we hereby confirm that you will receive your bonus at least at your target level by March 15, 2017.

Please reach out to the Human Resources department if you have any questions regarding the 2016 Variable Compensation Plan or payment.
