Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed on September 9, 2022 (the “Filing”), by the Reporting Persons relating to the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

 

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

 

Item 3 is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

GIP Sol has acquired from TotalEnergies Solar Intl SAS and TotalEnergies Gaz & Electricité Holdings France SAS (together, the “Sellers”) 50% less one unit of a newly formed Delaware limited liability company, Sol Holding, LLC (“HoldCo”), as partial consideration for the sale by GIP III Zephyr Midco Holdings, LLC to TotalEnergies Renewables USA, LLC (“TotalEnergies Renewables”) of 50% of the equity interests in Zephyr Holdings, L.P., which in turn owns all of the equity interests in GIP III Zephyr Acquisition Partners, L.P. and Clearway Energy Group (each of which indirectly or directly beneficially owns shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock of Clearway Energy, Inc.). HoldCo directly holds the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. The acquisition of the HoldCo units described above is referred to herein as the “Transaction.”

 

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Following the satisfaction of certain material contingencies to the closing of the Transaction, by virtue the respective governance rights that Sellers and GIP Sol each have over HoldCo, both the Sellers or their affiliates, as the case may be, and GIP Sol, may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of all of the shares of Common Stock that were previously owned by the Sellers. Following the closing of the Transaction, Sellers and GIP Sol also each have certain other governance rights related to HoldCo, including without limitation with respect to the exercise of director nomination rights held by the Reporting Persons with respect to the board of the directors of the Issuer, as further described in Item 6 herein.

 

Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Letter Agreement

 

In connection with the completion of the Transaction, TotalEnergies Renewables, GIP Sol and HoldCo entered into a Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”), dated as of September 12, 2022, concerning certain governance rights with respect to HoldCo and the shares of Common Stock held directly by HoldCo. Specifically, TotalEnergies Renewables and GIP Sol have agreed to, among other things, take all actions necessary to cause HoldCo to designate and elect to the Issuer’s Board of Directors such individuals as the HoldCo is entitled to appoint pursuant to the Affiliation Agreement (as defined therein); provided, however, that for so long as HoldCo is entitled to appoint at least five (5) directors to the Issuer’s Board of Directors, GIP Sol shall have the right to appoint two (2) of such five (5) directors.

 

The Letter Agreement also contains certain provisions on voting and on the transfer of HoldCo LLC interests (“Units”) and shares of Common Stock. These provisions include: (x) a prohibition on transfer of Units for (i) one year after the closing of the Transaction or (ii) in a manner that violates the transfer restrictions contained in the Affiliation Agreement; (y) certain rights of first offer and tag-along rights in the event of any proposed transfer of any Units; and (z) provisions governing any potential take private of the Issuer or similar transaction.

 

The foregoing description of the Letter Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified by the full text of such agreement, which is filed as an exhibit hereto.
